This version was OK. Similar to the American/original version but there were changes in the story and to the ending though the feel of it was the same. Best friends fight and best friends make up. I think I prefer the American version more. It had it's comedic moments and was cute, lots of cutteeee maybe too much cute for me. A flick to watch to kill time, with a happy ending.

I didn't expect much considering I've seen other versions of the story but I was impressed with this version. TenTen as usual is a jerk with conflicting bad timing and mixed feelings. But he does have a heart and suppresses what he already know is his true self. This is the type of guy that will cause girls to become crazy. he plays tug of war with your heart strings. One minute he's into you and then the next he is not. I still Enjoyed him as his character grows SLOOOWWLLY. Loved the scene with him and the mother at the breakfast table. Taliw is definitely not the smartest but she has heart and determination and is sweet and kind. Though at times you kinda wanna slap all the cuteness and in some ways she leads King's character on. What can you say it's what makes for good drama. King's character does his best and is sweet also. Overall, I enjoyed watching the slight twists and enjoyed the changes to the drama though the feeling and goal is still the same. Definitely 1 of the top favorites of this version. Loved the ending though we all knew what would happen (if you have seen the others) but I loved the way it was done. Wet TenTen and makeover TenTen are really nice. Good job, happy i watched this version. Loved the relationship with the parents and the kids. Give it a try, the over the top first few episodes will require some overlooking but once you get in the flow of things you will enjoy the rest of the drama.

Great to watch, the eye candy that is Song Seung Hun was great also. Uhm Jung Hwa constantly impresses me; I'm enjoying her the more I get to see her movies and dramas. Great talents on this team of actors and behind scenes etc. Hats off to the Great cast. Heartwarming and lesson learned, nice twist. predictable and yet enjoyable. Tear jerker moments but then nice ending.

I loved this movie. It was funny without being too heavy. On a serious note it definitely points out a serious topic & problem with technology and sick people with their hidden camera. Of course females would get the worst end of the stick in these situations. Hidden cameras/making movies are all together dangerous and could haunt people for years to come. One a lighter side, the movie was cute and the leads had chemistry and it was thoroughly enjoyable. I'm surprised the rating wasn't higher. It deals with a mature content but I would say it's not graphic. Yeon Jung Hoon is very talented and I didn't even realize it was him at first. Nice to see Kim Ji Suk also. Enjoyable movie.

I knew I would love this when I heard absof-ing-lutely. The drama was great and had some real life situations and mature topics, love divorce, dating, marriage, re-marriage, hurt etc etc. I loved the characters, the kids were cute and loved each of the main characters story. I might even say I still loved the supporting roles even the "bad guys". I would love to have seen more of some couples but I guess it just didn't happen the way I wanted. LOVED the ending and thought each episode had something relatable for me. Lots of funny moments and WTH moments and I hate that person moments. I think some characters grew on you and some You began to understand with much scrutiny. In all, I enjoyed and loved certain scenes and wanted more. For me it was possible to branch out and created other dramas based on the other couples (the cheater husband, younger older/older and the rekindling romance couple). Still happy I watched and happy I finally gave this show a try.

I enjoyed this film. Very likeable and fun. Their was a lesson behind it, don't give up on your dreams and don't give up on each other. I loved Uhm Jung Hwa & Hwang Jeong Min character as well as the friend played by
Ra Mi Ran. All very likable characters. Loved the dancing at the end with the men (politicians etc). It's a nice movie to kill some time and enjoy a nice story. No crazy backstabbing and evil in-laws. So far in the films that I have seen Hwang Jeong Min in a few films and he always makes me laugh; he's not your stereotypical handsome actor but I think he grows on you and his dimples gets you and then you're left rooting for him and caught in his web of charm. Love Uhm Jung Hwa, I always admire her style, beauty and charm as well and I enjoy watching her. Over all great job on the film and I was not bored by the story.

Loved this drama. It felt like this drama suffered from multiple personality disorders. One minute it leaves you laughing, another you are sad, next you're angry, crying, then laughing again. Enjoyed it so much and all the actors did a great job. didn't get a picture perfect ending but I still think it was a good ending. Great story and great connections how the story and the main people that died all related to each other. If I wrote my review sooner I would have more to say but I forgot to, so weeks later so I'm going to keep my review simple and say watch this you will enjoy it.

This drama sucked me in and before I knew it I was watching episode after episode. I could understand why Zha Mei Le felt the way she did, always wanting to do her best so no one abandoned her while Han Yi Lei had a similar issue but handled it differently. The story in the beginning I was so happy with, then they threw in a twist and I was like Ok so he cheated then they threw in more twist and then you kinda started to say "COME ON ALREADY". But then I still went with it because after all it's supposed to be dramatic. The mother of Han Yi Lei is crazy and how quickly she turns. O, I won't spoil anything else after all those twist and turns but then i get to the end and I'm like WTH, where is the missing episode because it feels like it was rushed and needed another episode. The final few minutes sucks rotten eggs. It could have been so much better. I was so committed and I felt like the drama didn't commit to the story. The end doesn't have to be cookie cutter but it should at least end well. It's like the actor was unavailable to film the last scene and so it ended and that was it. I feel a little cheated. I loved the chemistry between Han Yi Lei & Zha Mei Le and hoped their story would have ended more neatly, it's just that something was missing and too rushed. I only got 90%. Still I'm not sad that I watched it but I would have given a better rating if the ending was a bit better even after going thru all those crazy twist and turns with the story.

I think I'm on the fence with this drama can't decide if I either hate is or love it. It is filled with HIGH DRAMA and male leads that are beautiful to look at but very needy, possessive, angry, hurt, deeply in love and don't care who knows it and just does what they want and demanding. Drama peels back a lot of misunderstandings, history, lies and deceit among the characters. I loved the smooch scenes between Yin Xia Mo & Luo Xi (super cute and kinda sensual). Or course you don't know until later who she really wants or who she will end up with. I kept thinking the whole time that she is about to switch her feelings like a faucet. At the same time the main female lead is kinda mean/ a biotch. I felt like she was the cause for so much pain for both the male leads. She is nice also but it's like her character and feelings can easily be switched on and off. At times I didn't feel as if I trusted her character. But the males were just as bad, sure they love her but they will stop at nothing to have her and is often very jealous. Makes for good tension and LOADS of PUSH and PULL in the drama. This drama is very DRAMATIC with some over acting, stare downs and intense body language. At times I didn't want any of the leads to end up with each other. I wanted the three to end up with other people; just seemed unfair for two of them to be happy and the 3rd the odd person out when they have so much love.Am I happy about the ending? Don't know. That direction works and I think the other direction could have also worked. But once again I felt like the female lead could have easily switched and it's like I was never really convinced that she could be truly happy. It felt more like this relationship works I think I'll stick to it and I'll do my best to make it work But I got that feeling from both couples when paired together. As usual someone has to get hurt and be left out. Even though I was given an ending and who she chose I still felt on the fence about everything in general. I liked them individually but as couples it made me suspicious if they will every be truly happy.

I surprised myself by enjoying this. Enjoyed the quirky character Seol Nae Il, enjoyed Shim Eun Kyeong in Miss Granny and now in this drama. (The story doesn't really say if she is autistic or exactly what her condition is). She was still lovely and fought her own demons in the drama but her character was pleasant and gifted I think I would have liked to see more about her background something other than her piano teaching struggles. As usual Joo Won was great. Character is talented, suffering from a phobia and the girl must rescue him as he rescues her. The usual cliches and NOT ONE KIss WTH. I'm deducting points for that. Lots of hugging though. Still the music was great and made me wish I too knew how to play an instrument any instrument by the time the drama was over. The Dean was fabulous, LOVED her clothes and style in this drama. The other characters I enjoyed as well, it was a nice story. Didn't dive into the supporting characters background just skimmed the surface. The characters were interesting and the scenery was beautiful even the school. There were no crazy girlfriends, or family member to distract you. Except for the occasional strict parents and teachers which is to be expected when you deal with shows on talented people but there were very likable parents as well who showed support. The focus was on the music and their experiences and gave a glimpse into a school that produces that type of talented people. Sped right thru the episodes without a problem and kept me interest. It's Likable and sweet. Nothing too fluffy and nothing that has you yelling at your screen.

Saw the main leads in other films and enjoyed them so I thought, lets give it a go. But this was a bit hard for me to watch. Tried moths 6 ago and with determination I came back and decided to try again because of positive reviews. Stopped after first 2 episodes. The next 6 or so was a bit much for me still but I pushed on. Started to get better then they toss in the exaggerations and super cliches which drove me insane. I thought this was too long for the end result and the story could have been told in 16 episodes because there was no main point to this movie. I watched with no expectations other than to say I completed and I did my best. There were some cute and funny scenes, cute kisses and then you toss in the CRAZY desperate desperate desperate EX girlfriend and it just went downhill for me; mixed in with UN-decided boyfriend/confused boyfriend, crazy mother (at least she gets better), and allllll the exaggerated expressions and overacting. I wanted to like this more but I just kept wishing the episode would hurry up and get to the good parts. I like the other characters but I just felt this lacked focus and true direction. I think the story could have been told better; I found too man unnecessary things happened. This just wasn't for me but I can appreciate the effort.
Drama Breakdown: First part was hard for me (way unrealistic, I mean who talks to your new boss this way). middle part got better and started to grow on me (started rooting for the couple). middle-almost end (WTH, why do you need this stuff to waste time, please make it stop). then finally the end (my comment, at least it ended happily, hugs & kisses). Moving on.

This movie is crazy and could possibly be used to scare people into never talking to strangers again much less taking a cab ever. The talented actors are off the chain and great, thumbs up to the actors. I think this is one of the movies that could haunt you in your sleep. It is gruesome, has action, slight sick twist in the comedy area, suspense and next to 0 on the romantic scale. lol. But it is worth the watch and may have you covering your eyes in certain scenes. Still great watch though. Just makes me scared that there may be actual people out there that commit these types of crimes. The question kinda lingers though, who was more crazy?Ahhh revenge will make you do some crazy things. Goes to show you though, you should never poke a sleeping lion.

The cast in this was great, lots of famous faces. I was surprised to hear reggae (old school stuff though, Jimmy cliff). Nonetheless, it was nice. Went a little slow for my taste but I pulled through to watch it to the end though I haddddd to skip around. The beginning is a bit slow but it starts getting better. It was the reversal of Rich guy Poor girl which I love to see. So happy that we got to see Poor guy for a change and yes some cliches included for your viewing pleasure plus I think you would have already figured this out in the first episode on what's gonna happen. Nice ending and but not something I could watch again. Still enjoyed it though.

I will start by saying that Majo no Jouken is not for everyone. The content/topic of older school teacher and student is not an easy topic to begin with but for being open minded you could enjoy it. If the roles were reversed (older male teacher younger student) would this be OK? Would it have made a difference if they were college age vs. high school? All factors that I think would possible change your opinions on the subject and mine. I'm sure it happens often in society and in the world we see it on the news ever so often. Now I will judge this solely on this situation. I did enjoy the story and the topic. At first it was a little hard to think that this high school teacher could fall in love with her younger student and not automatically thing it perverse but I found myself cheering for them and hoping that they would just hurry up and get older esp. the student. I think the student filled a void in her life and so the attraction began. It's not fast pace but I think every episode was necessary in order to tell the story correctly. At the end of the drama, I was kinda sad for them and yet I was hopeful also. I think it's a good story to watch if you can move past the teacher/student thing. Lots of other things happened in the drama that were important as well, abuse, jealousy etc. still a good story and worth watching. Cast was great as well.
