A Gem

Reporter and fireman worlds collide for a sweet heartfelt romance. Not flashy. Not over the top. More like that love that can break down walls type. This series was truly amazing. I have seen mini series with both of the leads in it and they were different genres, but they were enjoyable. I believe that this is by far one of the best series that I have seen these two in. They’re acting was amazing, realistic, and it just felt really genuine. What I really enjoyed about this series was that there was no ridiculous love triangle, or supremely immature cast. Our FL was a little younger but she was very mature. Her pursuit of her love interests was refreshing. She was bold, confident and professional while also being innocently cute when it came to her love. There was no immature characters in this drama. Although it was somewhat slow paced in some ways, it was still relatively upbeat. The parts that were somewhat slow were during the intimate communication, but It was so sweet and heartfelt that it was really hard not to wanna catch every moment. I didn’t feel the need to fast forward this. The supporting cast were just as good as the lead, and they brought their own vibe to this series is well. You will absolutely get attached to the main leads as well as the supporting her. I know it sounds hard to be, but you’ll become invested in the supporting characters too. You have firefighters, rescue workers come together in this down to earth romance. Loved it.

This was an exceptional series. I loved the build up. The acting was amazing. The crying scenes made me want to cry too.

Series was about a woman who encountered hardship and how she moved forward to rebuild her life. Of course we have our ML who comes into play. His character had a friendly and bubbly personality that could most,likely get along with anyone but he was also one that wanted independence. These two came together and t was sincerely sweet and heartfelt.

The chemistry between the leads showed up heavily. I would like to say that karma as well, but it more like reality than regret. It was still very good.

Interesting

First, I love the mystery components of the series. It played out well.
Series revolves around a woman and her husband. She married him without knowing he was a man that wanted a model wife, and that he was manipulative.

On another note, it’s definitely exaggerated. From what I saw he didn’t actually commit a crime other than a fake attack. Why they called the police is beyond me. The series want us to assume that a man that wanted a woman who had more and was more wife material, is criminal. He didn’t appear to be a gold digger. He did however show controlling and manipulative habits (still not a crime). He dumped a woman b/c he thought he found something better. She didn’t take it well. Still not a crime. Maybe he was serial dater. Didn’t see that either! Women have done what he did but no one call in the police troops.

I did find the way that the woman was easily manipulated into obedience interesting. I believe that it fits into how things happen to some people in real life.

Needless to say, I don’t get it. It was interesting to watch though ??‍♀️

Sweet

This was unexpectedly delightful. I honestly believe it was well written. The pace was very slow but there were god elements. It gave a nostalgic vibe.

Synopsis was pretty accurate. I loved how it portrayed the ML first innocent love and how he grew into a man and really recognized what he needed and wanted. Not a big fan of the family but there were not the worst I’ve seen. It wa s realistic and understandable. If you’re into the hometown vibe you’ll enjoy it. What I enjoyed most was how ML started at the bottom and worked his way up to a successful person. The friendships were a bit suspect but it was okay. What I disliked what the secret that seemed to go on forever. Later in the series you don’t see the main couple as much which was a total let down.

Overall good series.

Unique

As much as I wanted to love this, the writers were just to convincing, lol. I struggle to watch or endure anyone extremely greedy or selfish and the writers did a good job up front showing how money and possession can cause people to reveal how they really feel.

Overall series was pretty good. It was a bit slow paced but still nice. In summary, the series is about a sibling group who somehow manages to lose their father and stability overnight. Contrary to many drama with this starter, this on too, a different turn. The female lead didn’t walk about helpless, begging or waiting for a miracle she put her mind on surviving and got to work. She want extremely prideful but tried to have a sense of pride about herself. Loved that element. What you Lear from her character is how to push through, how to let others help, how to adapt and love. Very unique.

On the other side of this spectrum we have the have nots who suddenly grasp everything they didn’t have before. Their greed grew and it turn ugly.

The series reveals the good and the bad.

This series was strictly medical. Every episode had an extreme medical case and on some/most occasions you’ll get a sad story with it. Some outrageous stuff, some heartfelt stuff. I must say I’m not a fan of this one but if your into medical stuff, you’ll like it although it wasn’t varied.

On another note, whoever tagged this romance was stretching very far. There were no real doctor couples, no romance only an interest and it took 39 episodes and that seemed to last 30 seconds.

I would recommend this to anyone who likes medical dramas but don’t go into this hoping for romance or dating of any kind. It’s not there.

WORTH THE WATCH! Umbrella=Genuine Covering w/ love

I was reluctant to watch this because of the title and synopsis but I am so glad i watched this. It was soooo amazing. It was heartfelt, moving, touch and so much more. I was not expecting that. There was action, sweetness, mystery, plotting, battle of the minds, brotherly love, a little love and more. If I had to sum this up in a few words I would say this series about a queen/mother doing whatever necessary to teach, protect and defend her kids. This differs a bit from other historical dramas about queens fighting for their children. This queens didn’t go around being malicious or trying to hurt other people. I think the title absolutely fits the series “under the queen umbrella” because it was really about her covering/protecting her children from those that were trying to harm them. They series has so many heartfelt moments it was amazing. I can honestly say that I’ve watched very few historical drams that could provoke emotions in me but this one’s absolutely good. I would suggest this for anyone that into historical dramas.

Highly recommend this. Definitely a rewatch.

I just watched an unhealthy relationship for 24 episodes. What we had here was a female trying to move on from one determined man pursuing to an obvious ingenious guy with her. I’d be lying if I said I liked it. I spent the whole time waiting for them to break up. Sadly it took 24 episodes for that to happen and he made a comment that just further made me dislike it. I feel like my time was wasted. I ultimately sat and watched two people who clearly weren’t a good match and terms of their love and intent. Every episode I was thinking maybe they’ll break up with this one in the store it will pick up from here but it stay the same the whole way through her confronting him, him denying things and her letting it go and then him confronting her and her denying things and him apologizing and then it ended. This went on his way too long. I didn’t see the original of this series, or remake and after this I don’t think I’m interested.

Borderline melancholy.

Absolutely amazing series. I enjoyed every episode. No need to skip. Each cast member played their roles well. The acting was amazing, music and wardrobe were amazing. I truly enjoyed how the history of some were revealed. As the series progressed we had an opportunity to see the potential and background of some characters. I like the leads together. They also did an amazing job. The chemistry between the leads was sweet and you could really sense their bond.

FL was consistent throughout the series. She had a major character growth but her determination always ?. Even in her weakness she managed to display such strength. ML was fun to watched. He grew as a man, character and skilled person. I liked his character so much. He was such a kind person.

One thing that stood out to me was that 95% of the cast were good people with only 5% being being somewhat wicked.
No misunderstandings. No missing elements. I actually rewatched a few scene’s.

The negative: which may or may not be a negative. The ending was a cliffhanger. There was no closure. It was like a commercial break. Apparently there’s a season 2 coming, but after my “princess agent” let down, I’m anxious.

Aside from the cliffhanger ending I can’t find anything I didn’t enjoy about the series.

Good drama but very slow. Some say it’s romantic, But I say it simply embodies love. This isn’t one of those youthful romance dramas. It’s more like a family drama with issues in the love department. You’ll get cheating spouses, divorce, unrequited love, birth secrets and plotting. This is not a favorite for me due to the length, pacing and nature however I must admit that it is definitely mature. You cheated, okay, sign the papers I’m out. Not draggy pleading in that department but you’ll get some discomfort with the lack of retribution. You get the sad reality which is people stay in relationships or are forced into them all in the name of keeping things together. I really expected something grand or the ending to be pow!

What I liked most was that it was down to earth and somewhat natural. The situations were relatable and at times touching.
What I disliked is that they didn’t expand on the leads relationship or the simple fact that it just seemed to lack chemistry. The FL had a neutral or depressed look on her face 90% of the time.

Would I watch it again? Not on purpose.
Is it worth reviewing? Not particularly.
Any climatic moments? Nope.
Is it swoon worthy? Nope.

I was actually excited to watch this. After I started it, I felt that it was a bit slow but figured it would pick up and it did but only a little.

I actually liked the overall plot of the series. The acting was good as well, but I felt that it was just too long for a series that was this slow. Lastly, I’m a sucker for historical romance and this seemed to have that sweetness to it. But that was stretch as well.

For my romantics or happy ending lovers be warned. Some would say bitter sweet, but some would also call it said. After that many episodes I expected better but nope. It was terrible, but it’s definitely a filler series.

Amazing

This is absolutely one of my favorites. Top 10 for sure. I’ve watched it about 3 or 4 times. Unlike many other lackhorn this one offered a more entertaining and realistic plot. Okay, aside from the major initial swap, it was 100% realistic.
If you are looking for a romantic series that has some super natural elements to it you will absolutely love this one. It’s not overly dramatic or over-the-top at all it is a perfect Lee perfectly well balanced series. From beginning to end, it ran smoothly and kept me really entertained. No need to excessively fast forward because I was genuinely interested in what each person would do next whether it be action or humor. I also love the fact that they were no crazy relatives or insanely jealous females. They managed to pull this off without all the excessive drama. And it was still amazing.

There was a little action, a lot of chemistry, a lot of humor and a little mystery. And it was done beautifully.

What I liked most about this series is that it was not too slow and it was also not rushed. The writers did an amazing job giving simple flashbacks of the FL original personality in contrast to her present self. I really enjoyed how she was able to start over and redeem the other person.

The FL was smart, funny, bold and really kind. I enjoyed the fact that she was not a pushover and was able to sarcastically outwit anybody who attempted to look down on her. It was not your typical series but it was by far one of the best. I like the ML character and throughout the entire series he was able to maintain his sense of honor, loyalty and boldness.

The supporting cast were all great. Even the ones who were the servants. Their acting was no less amazing.

I highly recommend this one. Clearly as I have watched it more than three times I find it that great.

This was such an adventurous journey. I was a bit reluctant to watch this but I went in just to see.

I enjoyed the series. My initial thought was that it was another spy type thing however it was completely different. While it did have a bit of secrecy in it, it was not your typical spy/espionage type thing. The series was really about dominance in society. In terms of business, you have a bunch of men who want to be on top whether it’s business or gang related. What you witnesses here is the method they go about doing it to include robbing and taking advantage of other people to take what they want. I think this is the basis for the story.

While many believe that it is just about a female getting revenge against one person, I believe it’s a bit more than that. The truth of the matter is there was another person that wanted the same revenge so as a means to an end these individuals essentially use each other to get a revenge of someone that they hate it. So essentially you have two people coming together to get revenge against one person. The method that they go about getting that revenge is what we witnessed throughout the series.

What I like most about this series was the time period in which the series cast, the acting and the music was nice. What I didn’t like about the series was that they made the villain in this series extremely villainess. What I mean by that is he was already suspected of one thing and the writers found a way to make him the villain of something else too. For me it was kinda like overkill. So just imagine someone is believed to have committed a crime and while you’re getting revenge you realize that they also kidnap your dog 10 years ago which is completely unrelated but they wronged you twice. Yeah it is was too much for me. For me it just complicated the story more than it should’ve been.

Overall it was a decent series. There was definitely enough action. A hint of romance. Love for sure.
