Agent Orange
Bucharest, Romania
One of the best Korean dramas I've seen in a long time!
The best thing about part 2 is that the pace is much faster than in part 1 which makes total sense in a way because there had to be a character buildup. In this second part there is no time to breathe, you have so many things happening that I cannot actually write about since I would spoil the drama so I'm going to leave it at that. But I will say one more thing, the cinematography is absolutely gorgeous!The acting is excellent and of course, Nam Goong Min nailed it. Proof that he won the Daesang award. The acting overall was so good, great job to all the cast!
Beautiful OST, especially the song sang by Kai.
It's totally worth to watch this, the ending was one of the most beautiful endings ever!

Good drama but lacking consistency
I can't say I had big expectations of this drama but I'm one of those people that hoped it would be better. The beginning was really good but once you find out all the reasons behind, it's starting to lose some of its charm. I like the message it tried to send though; no matter how many difficulties you encounter, you must start all over again. I liked the school discrimination matter, which is a continuous problem everywhere.The acting was really good, especially from the main characters and Kim Yeo Jin.
Music was nice but forgettable.
Rewatch value: only 4 because there weren't enough cliffhangers.

It was nice to see them have free time doing things they don't normally do. Touching the episode when they celebrated 10 years of SHINee with the fans and they remembered Jonghyun.
Music - always the best!
I would rewatch it, especially for the funny moments which were in each episode!

What a fun ride
I'm so impressed of this show, to be quite honest, I didn't have big expectations seeing the rating. As soon as I started watching it, I was totally immersed, not to mention time travel is a theme that I thoroughly enjoy in each and every drama.The story was absolutely unique and by that I mean the way the time travel was made. I enjoyed a lot the way the doctors were portrayed and the struggles they go through. The number of episodes was ideal. Again, the ending was rushed.
The character developments were so well built and I'm so glad it didn't happen just for the main characters! Kim Nam Gil as always went through a range of emotions, I never saw Kim Ah Joong in a drama before but she did an amazing job! She and Kim Nam Gil had an amazing chemistry on the screen, at times you might think they were dating in real life, that's how believable their chemistry was.
The OST was good.
My rewatch value is 9, it was such a fun show!

Hands down one of the best Korean dramas
From the first episode this got me hooked on. I really enjoyed that kind of plot twist of Do Hyun Soo's personality. I agree, it might be a bit bloody for some people in some scenes but you're on the edge of your seat every time. It's definitely the kind of show you don't come around every day, not even once a year. The 15th episode was a rollercoaster of emotions.Acting: Lee Jun Ki never ceases to amaze me, he challenged himself a lot taking his role and did it flawlessly! Moon Chae Won was spectacular, the conflicts she had finding out the secrets of her husband were so good acted! Jung Seo Yeon (Eun Ha) played so good, she got me through a multitude of emotions. Kudos to all the actors, everyone did a fantastic job!
The OST was amazing: proof you didn't need tens of songs, you need few to make it memorable!
This is a drama to rewatch not only once, but twice, thrice.

Not as good as expected
Oh well, where I should I start? I started watching this drama because Lee Yo Won was in it, I like her acting so much since The Great Queen Seondeok and because the drama had only 12 episodes.Guess what, in this case, even 12 episodes were too much. Why? Because the story was dragged. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed so much watching these three women helped by a high schooler, all coming from different backgrounds, joining their forces to get their revenge and coming out of their shell. Revenge is, I think, too strong a word, they just showed those men their place and they paid for it! There were funny and touching moments, the actors did a really good job but for me it wasn't just enough. I guess I had too big expectations because of the rating, this time I was fooled.
The OST was quite forgettable but the opening BGM was nice!
I'm sorry but I don't feel rewatching this.

One of my favourites and the funniest drama I ever watched
I don't know why I didn't watch this drama until now because it was a perfect drama.First of all, it isn't only a comedy drama: it's also a crime and mystery one. Even though at times I was really annoyed with the corruption and injustice, the plot is so good, you don't notice how fast time is passing. But this drama has the funniest moments; I don't remember another drama that funny, maybe Modern Farmer but there were some over-the-top scenes, this one hasn't any. It's the first time I ever laughed with tears in a drama (I'm talking about episode 17, or 33-34). The mood of the drama changed a bit in the 19th episode; Hae Il gave me John Wick vibes, awesome!
The acting was great: Kim Nam Gil as always stole the show but the other characters were great as well, except the villains of course. Great job to all the actors! The action scenes were so well executed!
Great OST!
I'm so glad the drama is uploaded on YouTube, I can rewatch it anytime! That being said, I can't wait for the second season!

Cozy and heartfelt drama
I'm so glad I finally watched this. It was such a fun drama to watch with many funny moments. It presents the struggles of four people trying to chase their dreams in a world where unjust things happen. The length was just right, I thought the backstory of Ae Ra's mother was a bit rushed. But you don't notice time passing when watching this.The acting was really good and sincere. All the actors delivered; Park Seo Joon is so good in comedy dramas, Kim Ji Won played great.
The OST was so cute and beautiful!
This is definitely a drama to rewatch!

A drama that keeps you interested right from the very beginning
If at first there might not be anything special about this drama, as each episode goes on, everything gets more serious. The beginning is cheerful, funny and light and the later episodes turn into mystery crime ones. In a way, I liked that the feel of it changed.The story might not be so special but as you watch it, it keeps getting better and better.
The acting was great! Big thumbs up to Park Bo Young for playing two totally different characters! Even though I didn't like that much some of Soon Ae's actions, I came to understand and sympathize her. She was the one that brought confidence to Bong Seon. The chemistry between the leads was great!
The OST was so beautiful, especially the one sung by Jay Park! It gave me Michael Jackson vibes.
Rewatch value - 9, it was really good and it had no boring moments. It was great until the last episode.

Smart drama
The first episode is quite long but it gives a lot of details about the characters and the story. I liked a lot that every episode was suspenseful. The lead character had a lot of aces up his sleeve and that made the drama a very interesting and smart drama.The acting was very good, liked also the villain's acting!
The music was good, no complaints about it.
As for the rewatch value, I would watch again some moments from it because of the cliffhangers.
Looking forward to the 2nd season!

Enjoyable from one way to another
There was something so intriguing from the first episode. What a great story when so many subjects have been exhausted! After so many dramas when a girl cross-dresses, this time both main characters cross-dress! Nok Du was so funny as widow Kim! The mood of the drama slightly changed from cheerful to serious as episodes went by. But I'm glad the ending was a happy one.The actors did an amazing job and the music was beautiful!
Rewatch value - 9, such an enjoyable drama! After I finished watching it, I felt a bit sad because I got attached to the story and characters!

What a ride
Main reason for starting to watch this was because SHINee's Key was in it. I was thoroughly entertained, each episode had a suspense, no filler moments! Action scenes were so well directed.Story: intriguing from the first episode, as soon as an episode finishes you need to see what will happen next, not to mention the plot twists at every corner!
Acting was so good, main leads stole the show.
OST was so well fitted for the action packed scenes and not just that.

The best longest drama
When I saw this drama being aired again on TV, I had to give it to watch it again no matter the number of episodes.Story: absolutely addicting. You could think 81 episodes is a lot but the plot is so well built.
Acting: Song Il Gook's portrayal was amazing, his character growth was realistic and I loved seeing him grow into the Goguryeo's king. All actors did a great job, one of the reasons this drama is still relevant.
Music: touching and beautiful.
Definitely a drama to watch and rewatch.

Witty and refreshing
This was a surprisingly amusing drama, most of the times historical dramas don't have that feel, they have some moments here and there and that's about it! Right from the first episode, you're invested in the story because the characters are so likeable; loved the chemistry between the leads, funny in their own way. A thing I really enjoyed was the not rushed ending, we had an entire episode, not 10 minutes.The acting was great!
Music was good, the usual for a Korean drama OST.
My rewatch value is 8; it was really good, I wasn't expecting it to be that good!
