I can confidently say that God's Gift - 14 Days is going to be ONE OF THE BEST K-dramas of 2014!! I can already see many awards coming its way at the end of the year!!

The story line is just amazing. From episode 1, I was captivated by the plot, making me sit at the edge of my chair, anticipating of what would happen next. Just when I thought I figured out who is behind it all, something unexpected happened and I was left at a dead end with numerous questions. Even until the very last minute of the final episode I was left awestruck. It took me a few minutes to register what happened and then everything clicked into place. Usually I am pretty good at figuring out who is bad and who is good, but this drama totally made me run around in circles.

The cast was also amazing. I have no words to describe how well everyone played their parts. Lee Bo Young played the mother soo well. The determination she showed to save her child no matter what, it felt real. She is clearly a great actress. And what can I say about Cho Seung Woo, he was just amazing!! The action scenes he did was just top notch!! Seriously can i have him protect me too? haha But in all seriousness, he did a great job!

Of course I need to mention, Kim Yoo Bin, this little 9 year old girl did such a great job. If she can act like this at such a young age, imagine where she will be in 10 years time! Oh and how can I forget Baro (of B1A4). The amount of times he made me awestruck in this drama, the way he played a mentally disabled boy, left me speechless. It is hard to believe that this was only his 2nd drama. I can say with confidence that he is going to be an amazing actor. Cannot wait to see his future works!! (Special mention goes to No Min Woo, though his part was small, every time I saw him on screen i fangirled like mad. He is just too hot x__x)

The rewatch value is also very high. There is not a single boring moment in this drama. Nothing dragged on for too long and in every episode something new came up, which helped to unfold the story and create more mystery. I would definitely watch it again if i have time.

Finally I would say, hats off to the team for creating such an amazing drama. I know many didn't like the ending and others loved it. I for one, think the ending was bittersweet. It was not overly happy, but it was also not tear jerking. Seriously if you haven't watched this drama, then please do, I promise, you will enjoy it.

STORY: This drama really defines what a revenge drama should be. Full of mind games and suspense, never knowing what to expect and who is on which side, as characters constantly kept changing sides, until the very last moment. Every episode had its twists and turns, just when you think it is going downhill for the male lead, he does something else to turn the tables.

CAST/ACTING: Nam Goong Min was just phenomenal. How he portrayed Na Yi Je from being a kind doctor to a vengeful and power seeking character. His signature expressions was everything!! He truly became one with his character. Kim Byung Chul was just stellar as Seon Min Sik, seriously that smile was creepy, and at times i did find him annoying, but in the 2nd half he really played his cards well. Choi Won Young was great as Lee Jae Jun, the way he had such great control over his expressions and body language to portray his character and the illness. I wish Nara's character was more developed and incorporated. I felt like the female lead was just left as a side character, but whatever scenes Nara had, she was great. And i also loved the supporting cast members, they were soo good! Loved Prosecutor Jung and Miss Oh's interactions a lot!

OST: I personally really liked the soundtrack. They fit in well with the ambience of the drama. There were songs that felt hopeful, but then also sad and agonising.

REWATCH: I don't really re-watch dramas, but there are definitely some scenes that i would watch again.

One of the most well scripted, well directed and well cast drama i have seen in a long time!! This drama is gonna take me a while to digest.

Windstruck will definitely leave you all struck all right. The story was great. I loved how it opened up with a narrator and how it ended with one. At first I thought the narrator was the main male lead, but the ending showed it was someone else (watch My Sassy Girl first, then you will know what i mean). My Sassy Girl and Windstruck are related movies... Windstruck is like a prequel to My Sassy Girl, but you should watch that before Windstruck or else you might not get the storyline and it will just confuse you. I love how they incorporated almost every genre into one movie, it had: romance, comedy, drama/melodrama a bit of action as well.. what more can you ask for right?

The cast's were amazing, I love Jun Ji Hyun, she is such an amazing actress. She portrayed her character sooo well. Really loved her character as a strong sassy police woman. Also Jang Hyuk was awesome too, I really liked his character, he was soo funny xD And like an all rounder of a main character, it seemed like he was good at ALMOST everything! The other cast members were good too.

I liked the music, it was nice and simple. Also one of the OST's was beautiful because it had a piano (and I love the piano). It didn't have too many songs just 2 but that was more than enough for this movie. It didn't need too many songs.

Rewatch value - 10/10. I gave it a high rewatch value because I think I can watch this movie over and over again and not get tired of it because this movie has sooo many different aspect that it will just draw you back in and make you watch it again. Some of the scenes were filmed soooo beautifully and I love how they included the wind (hence the title Windstruck). It was really beautifully portrayed, so for that I would definitely watch it again.

Over all - 10/10. I have nothing more to say about this movie, it had everything a good movie has. All you have to do now is watch it.
P.S. do keep a tissue box with you because some scenes might make you cry (I know I cried a lot). But don't worry about the ending, you will definitely love it.

OMG!!!! I just finished watching Daisy (and it's like 4am now, yes I know I'm mad) I have only one thing to say about this movie. IT'S AWESOME!!!

The beginning started of sooo beautifully it was just unbelievable with the dream-like setting. It portrayed the beauty of the Netherlands sooo well, it was just wonderful to see all that nature scenes. And I'm not just saying that because it's my birth country no, I really mean it!

The actors were too good, every one of them played their characters sooo well!!! I fell in love with both the male leads! I couldn't choose who I liked more: Lee Sung Jae who played the role of officer Jeong Woo, or Jung Woo Sung who played the role of assassin Park Yi! and of course i can't forget Jun Ji Hyun, who played the female lead Hye Young. She was just wonderful, she was able to portray the sadness and pain so well. None of the actors exaggerated their characters. It was just perfect!

I totally love the music used in the movie, maybe that's because they used classical/ballads. It was totally in synch with the plot of the movie. I think because of that I ended up enjoying it even more xD

Daisy is now on my list of all time favourite movies

This drama is truly great! I loved every bit of it. Every episode's ending had a cliff hanger, leaving you wanting more. All of the actors did a great job at portraying their characters. I really loved Lee Kang To and Oh Mok Dan's character and how their relationship built. and Shunji's character was really good in showing the change that he went through. And even the extra casts were good. I don't think i ended up hating any of the characters, not even Shunji's character. This drama had everything from a to z: it had, drama, romance, comedy, action, grief, you name it, i can go on and on with it. I would really recommend you watch this and i would definitely watch it again!

This drama is great! omg i can't explain my feels for it! it is definitely one of my favourite dramas of all time, no doubts about it. Every minute was worth watching! There were so many twists and turns and action, not a single moment seemed dull or boring.

I love how the story developed from their childhood to their teenage years and then their adulthood. The time lapse were shown really well especially with the different hairstyles it actually felt like it's been years that past. This drama really has everything in from action to romance to friendship to a bit of suspense and mystery. This is truly one drama everyone should watch. One thing it did lack though was the romance, even though there was some hints and elements there it wasn't much, then again this was mainly focused on the corruption of the powerful ones so i guess it is alright! Thought the couples i wanted didn't end up together i was still happy with the outcome.

All the cast members were amazing. It felt like they were actually their characters. I don't think anyone's acting was bad or not well portrayed. Everyone did a great job portraying their characters to their best. I also loved how the child actors of Dong Soo and Yeo Woon looked sooo much like their older versions, really the detail and similarity of it was tremendous, it looked real.

I love Ji Chang Wook as Baek Dong Soo, he showed how Dong Soo matured throughout the years, the changes he went through were really clear cut. Yoo Seung Ho as Yeo Woon was just perfect! Seung Ho portrayed his character so well, it was amazing, maintaining that sad/mysterious look throughout the drama was just wow, hats off, also that hairstyle totally suited him. Yoon So Yi as Jin Joo was really great, i loved her strong independent women and tomboy personality! Shin Hyun Bin as Ji Seon was also really good, I really loved her look, she looked soo pretty! And also her character developed too in terms of strength and confidence.

The music, what can i say about it, i love the OST's. I think this is one drama where i loved EVERY single song, there is not a single song that i did not love! I think every song suited the drama till the end, whenever there was a scene where the songs were playing at the background, it fitted in real well, especially during the fighting scenes and the more dramatic scenes! Just perfect!

I would really rewatch this drama as i don't think i would get tired of seeing them, though i think i would only watch till episode 28 because i don't think i would be able to handle the last episode again, because of all the feels i went through lol

Overall this drama is just perfect! Not a single detail was lacking, and it wasn't a rushed drama! You can tell that the writers and director took time and care for when they were making this drama. It's just too flawless!! 10/10

I seriously love this drama! The suspense and mystery is just too awesome!! The story line is great because it doesn't rush right into each case but builds it up. I love how the first 2 episodes were about how season 1 ended (well of course that is normal for a sequel). One thing i liked about it was that they didn't rush right into it, but build it up and showed it over 2 episodes rather than 1. Also each case was just as suspenseful as the previous one. The ending was just amazing, and like the beginning the last case was split into 2 episodes! They put some serious thought into this!

Can i just say i love this cast, seriously i don't think i can ask for any better cast members for this drama. Every actor portrayed their character soo well.

Joo Sang Wook as Yeo Ji Hoon was just awesome! I loved how his character was hard to figure out because at the beginning you get mixed feelings about him but then as you understand what is going on you can't help it but to love him! One thing i really liked about him was how he became more casual-looking near the end, and that he became closer to his team! One thing i really liked about his character was that he kept me on my toes for the first 2 episodes because his character was seriously hard for me to figure out. But ones i understood his character i ended up loving him more haha

Jo An as Nam Ye Ri was great! i really loved how her style of clothing changed in this season. She looked gorgeous and stylish as well as tough and had the you-don't-want-to-mess-with-me vibe going on. I really liked how her character developed from being a damsel in distress to an amazing officer! I really hoped for Nam Ye Ri to end up with Yeo Ji Woon >.> seriously i wanted more romance between these two Dx (then again it is a crime drama so =/ )

Kim Sang Ho as Baek Do Sik and Choi Woo Sik as Park Min Ho were just great! i loved the random comedy factor that these two portrayed.. though i can't really call it 'comedy' but their relationship made me smile soo much! I love Choi Woo Sik as Park Min Ho, i don't think anyone could have portrayed this character any better! He was just too awesome and funny! I love Woo Sik *.*

I really liked the ost, though there was really just one song, it was still really good because it had that mystery feel to it, which fit totally in with the drama. If i had to choose which season had a better ost then, i think i like the 1st season's sound track more.. That doesn't mean i don't like this season's sound track.. I just prefer season one ost. But i love both songs!

I gave the rewatch value 9/10, which is pretty high, but that is because i don't think i would get bored watching it again, especially Joo Sang Wook's character, he was a mystery to figure out plus i love mystery/crime dramas a lot so i would rewatch it anyways. Also i think i would go over the same feelings and questions over in my mind while watching it again.. especially the ending. Seriously i think i will have to watch the last part of the last episodes over again in order to grasp what is going on xD

Overall, i gave it a 9/10 because i think this is an excellent crime/mystery drama, every episode was great, especially the ending was just too awesome!! Like the 1st season, this season ended with a cliffhanger, suggesting to me that there is definitely going to be a 3rd season!! I can't wait for it *.* I hope they will keep the casting the same because i don't think i can handle a different casting for this drama! Guess we will see what is gonna happen next!

So if you love mystery/crime/investigation dramas then i recommend you to to watch this drama! You won't be disappointed :)

I totally love this movie! I'm absolutely no fan of horror because I get scared REALLY easily. but I stuck to this movie even if it took me 4 hours to finish it. Every time something scary is about to happen I would pause it and try to built up courage to continue with it >.> But then in the end I find out there was no need for it -.- I'm glad I watched it all the way through! Now it's one of my favourite movies!!!

It had all the right bits and pieces. The transactions between comedy and horror was just perfect, they blended it in sooo well. Never thought those two genres could fit together this well until i saw this movie xD

So if you are not a fan of horror (like me) I say you give this movie a try. Trust me, it will be worth watching it till the end ^_^ You will love it :)

I really liked the plot of this movie as it somewhat represented what a real band would go through such as disagreements within the group and rival bands etc. The movie was really well executed with the range of different actors from different cultural backgrounds. Also there were lost of different elements in this movie such as romance, music, drama, action(?).

Everyone portrayed their characters really well, especially Hiro, omg the amount of swearing he did O_O I don’t think I have ever seen that before xD Also Hiro’s English was just perfect *_* I knew he was fluent in English but to hear his NEAR PERFECT accent was just wow. I didn’t expect that, he just blew my mind away.
Takeru looked like such a kid, it didn’t look like it was filmed in 2010 but way earlier, like 2007 or 2008 or something, he looked really young. I think it may be because of that hairstyle, it was a proper boys hairstyle xD Not that he doesn’t look like a boy with all his other hairstyles, you know what I mean right… Right? D:
Oh and let’s not forget about Osamu *_* omg his character, I don’t know if I should love it or just think he’s an idiot xD the amount of times he took of his short for a live event was just uncountable. Seriously he was shirtless for practically 1/2 the time in this movie. (not that I mind it xD )

As this movie was about a band, more specifically J-Rock, there were lots of songs/music. However, one thing I did not like was the fact that, when Takeru’s character had to sing they just blanked it out >.< I really didn’t like that. If they had to make him sing why not make him lip sync with someone else’s voice >.> though I was really looking forward to hearing Takeru sing, I was imagining how it would be like but sadly they ruined my imagination and never gave me what I wanted >.<

Rewatch value – 7/10. It’s a good movie about friendship and how to overcome certain difficulties and all the events bands go through, such as disagreements and teamwork etc. However, the reason why the rewatch score is a bit low is because I have a feeling I wouldn’t be able to handle all the eye candy in this movie xD seriously it is a pure pleasure to the eyes –coughs- Osamu shirtless –coughs- wait what? I said nothing :p But in all seriousness, I do like it, I might rewatch it when I have nothing else to do or watch and I just want to see all my favourite actors together xD

Overall Score – 8/10 because the cast was awesome the plot was great. I loved everything about it xD (though it could have done without the swearing) and no singing >.> But overall I liked it because they included a range of different cultures in this movie. So I thought it was a job well done! If you want a movie to watch just as a pass time I think this would be the right one to watch.

I don't know if I am being biased or what, but i truly love this drama like seriously. I am a huge fan of crime/action/investigation etc dramas, and I thought this would be pretty similar to all the other dramas I have seen but I must say this was definitely different and original! I really loved every single character in this drama xD After watching this, I ended up falling in love with So Ji Sub even more than i was already lol and also I think G.O's acting skills were really good as this was the 1st time, I was really impressed. I ended up loving the OST's sooo much that I had to download the songs xD One thing I wish there was a tiny bit more of is actually romance, I really wanted Kim Woo Hyun (So Ji Sub) and Yoo Kang Mi (Lee Yeon Hee) to end up together, as they went through sooo much together in the drama. I do wish for a season 2 but i don't think it would be as good as this one, so I will leave it at that.

This drama is seriously great! I loved every minute of it, there was not a single bit that I found boring or uninteresting. The story line was just too great. Everything flowed well so perfectly! All different genres fit in together so perfectly. This drama literally has everything from: comedy, romance, tragedy, action, suspense etc and the list can go on from a-z.

Also all the actors were so great! Each and every one of them portrayed their characters so well. Really hats off to all of them, they all did a great job! There was not a single actor, in my opinion, who didn't portray their characters well or didn't do a good job. Seriously it was amazing!

About the music what can i say. All the songs are so great! I really love the OST of this drama. My favourite sound track would definitely have to be Suddenly sang by Kim Bo Kyung. That song is just too great! And I think I have played it sooo much I got the lyrics memorised xD

When it comes to rewatching this drama I would definitely do so, but I think I wouldn't be able to handle all the feelings I went through while watching it the first time round. Seriously you should have seen me. I looked like a mess haha (my mum thought I was gone mad or something)

But yeah overall this drama is just perfect! So i just had to give it a perfect score xD It is definitely one of my favourite dramas. The only criticism I have is that the last episode seemed a bit too rushed because it did lack some minor details. I won't mention what those minor details are because then it will become a bit of a spoiler. So if you want to know what those are then i suggest you watch this drama :p

I seriously loved this movie. While watching this, it gave me sooo many different feelings, it was just unbelievable. Half of the time, i think i was fangirling over Kim Jae Won lol (he just has one of the cutest smile EVER!!!) I really loved that this movie had nearly everything in it from comedy to romance, as well as some serious moments to some sad moments. I really loved the near ending scene by the river with all the pretty lights and everything. I sooo wish I had a guy like him in my life, I wouldn't want anything else xD but sadly that is only possible in dramas/movies >.>

This is the first time i saw a movie about racing/cars, and I must say, I did like it. But that's probably because it had a bit of a mystery feel to it, due to the cursed car. (that's actually the reason why I watched it lol) As soon as this started I actually fell in love with it, maybe because it opened with a beautiful cityscape. I really love night views of the city, they are soooo pretty, and throughout the movie all I could see was beautiful cityscapes as most of it was set during midnight (well duh it's in the title lol) So if you love cars or beautiful cityscapes or even hot guys lol this is the movie for you xD One thing I wish this movie had a bit more of is romance, I saw soo many opportunities for romance blooming, but nope nothing happened. oh well, I guess i shall leave it to my imagination then.

STORY: Captivating plot, full of suspense and action. It was well executed. Yes, it has its flaws, but overlooking those, it was an enjoyable drama. And any drama that can make me shed tears is always a good one in my books.

CAST/ACTING: Jang Ki Yong was just beyond amazing, the way he portrayed a complex character like Soo Hyeon. The way he portrayed most of the characters emotions through his eyes. It spoke to me. Nana definitely surprised me, never knew how great of an actress she is. The other actors did justice to their characters. Definitely a well cast drama.

OST: I personally really liked the soundtrack. They fit in well with the ambience of the drama.

REWATCH: I don't really re-watch dramas, but there are definitely some scenes that i would watch again.

SUBTLE SPOILER: I'm glad that all the people that needed to be punished, got a befitting ending. It was right to end this drama like the way it did. Bittersweet, but i think sometimes it's good to end a drama like this. It can't always be rainbows and unicorns.

I really want to see Jang Ki Yong and Nana in another drama together, more precise a romance one.
P.S. Grey (the dog) is such a beautiful dog!!
