Radio Romance is a very simple romantic K-drama without any big plot twists or anything like that but with a lot of clichés (A LOT!!!).
In spite of that, I did enjoy watching it although as the plot progressed I wasn't expecting much honestly.
I really enjoyed Ji Soo-Ho who could make any girl watching Radio Romance fall in love with him, but when it comes to Song Geu-Rum, I don't know why but I felt like during the K-drama, in the beginning, she doesn't really show the process of falling in love with him. I'm not saying she's a bad actress because she's a good one from what I've seen from her previous work but maybe in this drama she didn't show her character's emotions that well. But, in spite of that, I felt like the couple was really cute though.

Emotionally perfect!

Honestly, I really enjoyed watching this K-drama, especially because this is not your typical everyday K-drama.
First of all, a WARNING: If you're soft-hearted, I'd advise you to prepare the ice cream and most importantly the tissues because, believe me, you're gonna need them! This one of the very few dramas that can make me cry my eyes out.
Why do I say this isn't your typical K-drama? Because this drama is surrounding a huge incident that changed the life of all the characters involved, marking them physically or emotionally.
I enjoyed GangDoo and MoonSoo as a couple, they were connected in a deeper way than they originally thought, but even after they found the truth they still pulled through.

First of all, I really enjoyed watching this drama, particularly because the plot was amazing and really easy to follow even though it was surrounded by a lot (and I mean A LOT!!!) of mystery which makes it really easy for the viewers to get hooked on the story, especially if you're a thriller kinda person (If thrillers aren't your thing, this might not be for you).
When it comes to the casting, the cast was all of great quality but I do have to give special props to Min Nam-Goong who I've been a massive fan of for years now and I really did enjoy the way he was able to portray his character perfectly.
With this, I do have to point out that I wasn't expecting to get hooked on this drama at the beginning because the first few episodes were a little slow-paced for my taste and I was feeling it would be a boring show, but I kept watching it, and it got way more interesting and believe me, it's real easy to get hooked on it. Aside from this, I'd also like to tell you that this show is not like any other crime-related K-drama. Usually, you know who's the good guy and who's the bad guy. Here, everything is so mixed up that you don't really realize who's the good guy and who's not.

First of all, I'd like to make it clear that I enjoyed watching this k-drama, but that doesn't mean that I enjoyed everything about it, obviously. Even though I think this drama was good, It does not show us anything new, mostly because it's surrounded by all these clichés.
Secondly, I gotta say that as someone who has seen the Chinese/original version of this drama, I did prefer that version instead of the Korean version for several reasons, but still, this drama was really good, and it was still adorable.
One of the reasons (and probably the main reason) that makes me prefer the original version is that the Korean version removed a lot of details from the story which is also something noticeable just by seeing the duration of each episode (about 25 mins). In addition to this, I noticed that there's a difference in the "personality" of the male lead of each version. In the original version, the male lead is actually really cold and you can tell that, but in the Korean version, Heon didn't come across as a cold person, but more of a sweetheart and nice person who was kina of an introvert or something like that.
In spite of this, this is still worth watching especially if you're into the cute, lovely, sweet types of dramas.

When you watch this drama tell me what you think, I'd love to know other people's opinions about this drama. And, also, if you also watched the original version, please tell me which one is your fave!

Honestly, I started watching this drama because of Hu YiTian who I've been a huge fan of since the drama "A Love So Beautiful" which is why I was rather disappointed when I realized that he didn't have a big role in the story. In spite of that, I really enjoyed watching this drama.
First, I really enjoyed the romance:
- Han ShangYan and Tong Nian: These 2 were a very pleasant couple, the perfect example of the expression "opposites attract". Han ShangYan was a workaholic who didn't care about anything else aside from getting the championship, he's seen as someone rude, spoiled brat who has suffered a lot growing up but in reality, he's just misunderstood by most. That is until he crosses paths with Tong Nian who's the "perfect child", she's smart, has talent, she's extremely nice and sweet. Even though Han ShangYan seems cold, Tong Nian falls in love with him at first sight, she's able to see through him, through all his lies. And through all her support, Han ShangYan slowly starts falling for Tong Nian as well which is nuts since he's always been uninterested in girls and because to the outsiders they can't be a match due to their differences although in the end, they overcome this.
- Xiao Mi and Sun YaYa: I found this "couple" very cute. I really admired that Sun YaYa was able to show Xiao Mi that he has a lot of fans supporting him when he was at his lowest. I loved to see their relationship developing into a romantic relationship (which only happens in the end). She was always supporting him and he fell for her pretty quickly.
Second, the friendships and bonds:
- Solo team: The Solo team was a great example of the friendship and bond most of us would dream of having in our lives. Solo acted as more of a father who took care of the rest of the members of the team with the help of Han ShangYan. Unfortunately, this team had to disband, and each went its way where every single person got hurt and didn't really stay in touch with the rest. After 10 years of not seeing each other, Han ShangYan with the help of Tong Nian finally forgives Solo for what happened in the past and this friendship and bond get back on track.
- KK team: The KK team was so adorable. I loved them so much, how they behaved with Han ShangYan, and how they "made fun" of his relationship with Tong Nian. Also, they looked so cool in the CTF competitions!
The fourth and most likely the most important thing about this drama is that these characters went all-in after a dream that most people don't even consider a "serious job" but just a hobby. It showed us that you should only give up on your dreams when there's no way to achieve them. If you work to achieve your dreams, you'll achieve them!

Although this drama was really good, I felt like there could be more development on the DT and Appledog relationship but that might have happened this way because there's another drama that is around their relationship.
In conclusion, this is a very sweet and funny drama that I would definitely recommend to anyone.

Please, don't forget to leave your opinion about this drama after you watch it!

I loved to watch "Tell Me What You Saw", mainly because it's a police/criminal drama.
This drama is surrounded by suspense and mystery surrounding the real identity of the serial killer that is assumed to be dead but isn't. Unlike most criminal tv-shows I've watched, this drama didn't give a hint as to who the serial killer might be until he revealed himself (around the 13th episode) which was a pleasant surprise.
Now, as much as I'm a sucker for a good mystery tv-show, I felt like the number of people that were serial killers in that town was a bit overboard. I mean, how many serial killers could a town like Mucheon possibly have? Not as many as the drama showed (right?). On top of that, the number of crimes done on "The Guy"'s command was a bit surreal, like who in real life would let themselves be this manipulated to be willing to kill themselves for someone else?
Nonetheless, this drama was awesome. I loved the chemistry between the characters, so much that my romantic self had moments where it was hoping for something more between Oh Hyun-Jae and Cha Soo-Young, although it doesn't make sense to hope for it.

Alice isn't what I was expecting, in a bad way!
This drama wasn't super awful since it started pretty well which hooked me since it had a pretty decent concept but then it went downhill up until the end. The fact that there are too many scenes that hint towards a potential romance between mother and son grossed me out, but I pulled through and watched it till the end.
Honestly, there were parts that were harder to understand the plot, but the actors did an amazing job considering what they were working with. Maybe the 16 episodes were too long for this plot which caused it to be a bit awkward?
Finally, the ending to me was a little vague since I was expecting something more concrete than this, to be honest.
So, if you're not grossed out by the possible incest or you don't mind the confusing plot, go ahead and watch it.

Good but not new!

Generally speaking, I enjoyed watching this drama.
First of all, even though I liked the theme of this drama the love story isn't something new. It's a story of a boss that seems cold and distant (but actually isn't) and of an employee that will do anything for her boss with a bubbly personality.
This isn't the type of drama that gets you super hyped up to watch what's going to happen next, but it's still enjoyable to watch it. Plus it's not the kind of drama that makes you cry your eyes out.
What I actually loved the most was the girl power shown in this drama as well seeing girls supporting girls which isn't something that you'll see every day.
On top of that, this drama discusses some societal issues that working moms have to face in Korean society since they're supposed to raise their children and that because of that they're automatically seen as not so good workers...

Long, but totally worth it!!

I really enjoyed watching this K-drama!
First of all, I just wanna tell you that when I first started watching this K-drama I wasn't sure if I was going to enjoy watching it or if I was even able to finish it because this drama is much longer than any other K-drama I've ever watched. It turns out, I was not only able to finish it but I also loved it so much.
Honestly, before I've watched this drama I wasn't very aware of this group of actors even though I already knew some of them. But their acting didn't disappoint me at all, it was actually perfect.
Throughout the whole drama, there's a lot going on with each family member. You'd think that since this is considered a family drama, there wouldn't be much going on but actually, the drama shows what's going on with each family member so you always know what each character is going through in every episode.
In spite of being considered a family drama, there's a lot of romance involved with each love story being very different from the other. Aside from that, this is a great drama if you just wanna laugh since there's a lot of funny moments.

Favorite drama ever!!

I really enjoyed watching this drama so much that easily became my favorite drama to watch ever!
Even though this drama falls more on the melodrama or in the dramatic category, I still loved it so much. Do not watch it if you're expecting light romance, because with this one is hard to not cry your eyes out.
This drama starts during the present time where the main characters (He Yichen and Zhao Moshen) start recollecting their love story during college years ago up until the misunderstanding that caused them to break up and each go their separate ways. Honestly, the love story shown during their university days is very similar to a lot of dramas out there where the male lead is really smart with a cold appearance and the female lead isn't that smart and really bubbly. After they break up, that's where the storyline differs from the typical "sweethearts" drama.
In this drama, both He Yichen and Zhao Moshen are stuck in a love triangle, although they always loved each other in spite of the years that passed by. Due to these love triangles and the years spent apart, there's multiples misunderstanding that rises up during the plot but eventually, everything is cleared up.
I do recommend you to get some comfort food while watching this drama because you're gonna need it!

In general, I really enjoyed watching True Beauty.
Honestly speaking, this drama hit close to home, since just like Lim Ju-Kyung, I was also bullied in school due to my appearance and I believe that a lot of people watching this drama will relate to it.
This drama was actually very cute, not super dramatic even though approaches some serious societal issues from suicide to the way the entertainment industry works, to the appearances-based society we live in.
I haven't read the webtoon, so I can't tell you if the drama is loyal to it or not. What I can tell you is that the acting was amazing, very entertaining although there were some parts where you can tell the overreaction in the scene, in spite of that, the drama was really enjoyable.
Something that I really loved was the presence of strong females like Lim Ju-Kyung's sister who's someone that not only can defend herself but also goes after what she wants even when it comes to romance; or like Kang Soo-Ah who can defend herself or anyone she sees in danger (although she goes "bitchy mode" towards the end due to jealousy).
Last but not least, this drama was a bit hard to watch because it's impossible to not like Seong-Joo. I wanted both Seong-Joon and Soo-Hoo to have a happy ending but obviously, that wasn't possible.
