Just completed watching this drama and this is yet another orphaned and traumatised cold CEO who falls in love with a bubbly less rich girl. This time the girl is a country girl, who knows martial arts. The FL is a sweet, kind country girl who was thrust into the limelight and more or less onto the lap of a hard as nails CEO. Of course, the enemy to lover progression is guaranteed. The chemistry between male and female lead was amazing. They are so cute together which makes it easy to ship them. The ridiculously handsome ML really wowed me with his acting though. He did the comedy bits, slapstick, and exaggerated indignation surprisingly well also the support cast is not bad. The gaggle of company secretaries is largely used for light comedic relieve but they are surprisingly effective in that role. The trio of gossipy secretaries are a DELIGHT! You think this is going to be that standard and overused group who are malicious and vicious, but in reality they instantly are on Team Huahua the minute they meet her!! They ship the leads so hard core and I love their interactions among themselves and with Zhi Fei and Huahua. In every C-Drama the one woman character that is always obsessed with the ML but never had a chance was mostly comically in her failed attempts to gain Zhi Fei's attention and towards the end she's still stubborn but obviously not an obstacle or really even a blip on ZF's radar.

Overall I laughed most of the way through this. It was absolutely wonderfully funny. The Acting is great and the story magical. Both leads are superb. Every character was well though out. I loved her Martial Arts and his Grumpiness. This drama was a Joy to watch.

Re-watched this drama only for the love scenes and ended up watching every single episodes again. Even though I knew what would happen next I still got excited when things happened, got anxious when it seemed like things weren't going well and cried when the emotions came out ??? with every scene felt like it was my first time watching.

Masterpiece....

Dr. Cheon and the Lost Talisman is an absolute cinematic gem that effortlessly blends supernatural elements with laugh-out-loud comedy. This Korean film is a rollercoaster ride of emotions, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats while simultaneously tickling their funny bone.

From the moment the film starts, it grabs your attention with its intriguing premise and vibrant characters. The portrayal of Dr. Cheon, a charismatic fake exorcist, is nothing short of brilliant. His on-screen presence is magnetic, and his witty banter with his sidekick, In-bae, is pure gold.

The film’s masterful blend of horror and humor is a testament to the director's skill. The suspenseful moments are genuinely chilling, while the comedic relief comes at just the right time, preventing the film from becoming overly dark. The special effects are top-notch, immersing the audience in a world of supernatural wonder.

Every aspect of this film is executed to perfection. The pacing is impeccable, the storyline is engaging, and the characters are relatable. It's rare to find a film that delivers on all fronts, but "Dr. Cheon and the Lost Talisman" undoubtedly achieves this.

If you're looking for a thrilling, entertaining, and unforgettable cinematic experience, I wholeheartedly recommend "Dr. Cheon and the Lost Talisman." It's a 10/10 in my book.

I don't have any words left to describe how beautiful this drama is. Apart from the storyline the production crew also made sure that the songs included in this drama are all amazing and meaningfully beautiful.
Hats off to the story writer and the amazing production crew. Also a big round of applause to the actors who portrayed their roles perfectly. While watching the drama you can see and feel that the actors really became one with their respective characters
I personally think that this was by far the best drama released in 2023!
I'm just amazed by this perfect drama? I'll be waiting for season 2 desperately!

Spoiler Alert:-
When Ha Eun-gyeol returns from 1995 in 2023 and meets his father (Ha Yi-Chan), his father finds a cassette of an old song of his that he recorded in 1995 (A Song for you). His father (Ha Yi-Chan) suspects that Ha Eun-gyeol was his old friend from 1995 and he (Ha Yi-Chan) suspects Ha Eun-gyeol, when he was performing in stage too. I was waiting When Ha Yi-Chan finds out that his son goes into the past and meets him there and I'm waiting for Ha Yi-Chan and Ha Eun-Gyeol conversation after Ha Yi-Chan finds about his son's time traveling. But it didn't happen. (˙◠˙)(˙◠˙)???

Definitely go and watch this drama it's truly a work of art and perfection ❤ I'll never forget this drama and will desperately wait for season 2!!??

VIVA LA VIDA!
(Long live life)?

Amazing acting and excellent storyline

Just finished it today. Amazing acting and excellent storyline. It gives you good moral value about life. I love how nice the dialogue is well written for every characters. it's an excellent masterpiece! This is such a great series as you inspire not only us who works in healthcare field but also all the human in this world on how to act morally. Everyone deserves both local and international awards! I salute every cast in this series especially the creators, directors and the whole staff. After watching this show up until episode 9, I totally love this drama. I cannot stop binge watching this drama since episode 1, it's very addictive.

The plot is filled with twists and turns, including political intrigue and personal vendettas, which keep the audience invested. The dramatic tension between the characters, along with the complex, multi-layered storylines, contributes to its gripping narrative.

Acting:-
The performances by the lead actors are commendable, bringing depth to their characters and making their emotional journey relatable. The chemistry between them is palpable, which adds a layer of authenticity to their romance. The supporting cast also shines, contributing to the richness of the narrative and providing various perspectives on love and ambition.

Overall, Doctor Stranger is an entertaining and emotionally charged drama that successfully combines medical themes with political and personal intrigue. Its strong lead performances and engaging plot make it a worthwhile watch for fans of the genre, despite a few narrative missteps along the way.

I finally watched it this evening, "Psychokinesis" is an electrifying cinematic experience that blends supernatural powers with human emotion.

The film's compelling storyline, well-developed characters, and seamless special effects create a captivating spectacle and a gentle touch that nuances every character so that you see that everyone is trapped in an intertwined set of dynamic forces, nobody is purely good or evil, just human. Director Yeon Sang-ho brilliantly explores the emotional journey of an ordinary man who gains extraordinary telekinetic abilities. The action sequences are exhilarating, and the humor adds a delightful dimension to the narrative.

Why I give it 5.5 Star?

1) There were lots of scenes that I think unnecessary and the story itself seems to be lacking.
2) There were some characters that were pretty useless. For example: What was the point of Director Hong? She brought nothing to the movie. They could have simply kept it vague.
3) There are so many plot holes that you stop caring about them entirely. Who cares if we switch between throwing bombs at our enemies to saving them from falling off a building?
4) If you're into superhero movies, yes watch it, and be entertained. Just don't look for realism, a message, or anything profound.
5) who the big bad guy/girl is? I mean Who is the Villain?
6) It causes disappointment because it was less exciting than was expected in the end, it felt a bit flat with an extremely anticlimactic ending.

Overall, I don't love the movie much but I don't hate it either. It's more of a so-so.

Recently completed and I must admit that It was an excellent drama. The theories of parallel universe, monarchy and a love story, were all beautifully woven together. The acting skills were exemplary. The way Lee Min Ho perfectly got into his role as an Upright Monarch was very impressive. Kim Go Eun on the other hand potrayed a strong female lead, her character as Jeong Tae-ul and her acting skills were my personal favourites from this drama.

Her character as Luna was also impressive as the character as Luna was completely different from that of the character as Jeong Tae-ul. the formal being a pick pocket thief with a vast criminal record and the latter being an honest, strong and diligent police officer Wo Doh Hwan also did an excellent job at potraying 2 different characters who were poles apart in personality. One being a stiff and upright bodyguard cum soldier and the other being cheerful and chilled out person. All other actors too did a very good job as most of them played in double roles from the 2 parallel worlds. The screenplay and direction too was applause worthy.

Kim Go-eun, God, I am falling in love with her acting skills. Just saw her Goblin TV series and she was amazing. She didn't disappoint me. Her strong-willed and sarcasm character made me love her even more. The Superb supporting cast Woo Do-Hwan and the enigmatic Villain Lee Jung-jin shines here. You will fall in Love with their characters. Highly recommended must watch!

40 episodes are truly too long.

I recently completed watching this drama, it's not a romcom drama but it has all elements like humor, romance, life lessons, awareness about mental and physical health, cuteness and many more. This only has about 10% of love scene in it. This drama is more like family drama who continue to practice Traditional Chinese Medicine. The chemistry with M.L, it became quite good towards the middle Because they used to fight in the beginning.

Acting & Chemistry:-
The acting is solid, with Luo Yizhou and Zhao Lusi leading the cast. The lead actors Luo Yizhou and Zhao Lusi deliver standout performances with remarkable chemistry, making their on-screen romance both compelling and heartfelt. There are two more side couple stories. Their characters represents ‘ Yin and Yang ‘ thru the episodes. Supporting roles are seamlessly integrated into the storyline, adding a layer of realism and energy. These moments also serve as a backdrop for character development, highlighting personal growth and resilience.

Humor:-
Humor is a strong suit of "Gen Z," with the series featuring a number of funny moments that provide much-needed levity. The comedic elements are well-placed and add a light-hearted touch, though they occasionally feel inconsistent with the more serious tones of the drama. For me humor is a plus point of this drama.

Why 7.0 stars?
My overall impression of the drama is quite good. Still, there are some issues which I disliked. There were few frustrating episodes towards the end and some of the stories weren’t necessary to be included in the drama.
Some characters had extremely problematic personality traits that could not be overlooked, no matter how much they tried to redeem them at one point or another.
40 episodes are truly too long. It's dragging in general and forced plot would pop up from time to time.
Serious issues were also glossed over, ignored and not concluded. There was so much “side issues” going on that at one point I really didn't know what the actual story was.

overall If you like medical drama, family drama, funny/serious/romances then don’t miss it!

The best sports drama I've ever seen and also the couples throughout the story are spectacular. The scenes of Tae-joon and Taeyang are relatable to many and hence we feel so close to the characters.Tae-joon and Taeyang are forever going to stay in my heart and be one of my favorite kdrama couple. The other couples were phenomenal too. I smiled and cried with the characters. It was an emotional rollercoaster so much so that after the drama ended, I feel empty.

Also fell in love with Junghwan and Yumin's chemistry. Hats- off to Chae Jong Hyeop, Park Ju-hyun, Kim Mu-jun, Park Ji-hyun and the rest of the cast for their amazing and phenomenal performance. There isnt a single moment of boredom throughout the drama which is rare, the episodes are perfectly paced, and the couples' chemistry is just a cherry on the top. I kept on smiling throughout and yet there were scenes where I cried with the characters. It depicts the life of an athlete perfectly.

Watch this drama if you want to know the real-life struggles of an athlete and if you want something calming and healing for your heart and most importantly, watch the drama for the Park-Twins!

Overall, this drama is a perfect blend of emotions and I recommend everyone to watch it and give it a go even if sports isn't your genre. ITS A MUST WATCH!! It is worth it!!

Really enjoyed this show. I was putting it off at first coz I thought it would be the same as 'So I married an Anti-fan' but this was way more interesting and fluffy.
But what I absolutely loved was the chemistry between the main leads, oh my, no wonder they were rumored to be dating at some point. They portrayed their relationship so effortlessly and I am here for that!
The director also made sure to give each and every character a happy ending, I mean we had so many couples in this show, 7 couples to be exact, how is that not awesome.
I totally recommend this drama as this is just like Business proposal, if you haven't watched it pls do as I like their chemistry in that drama lol so much so that I watch the whole drama 3 times.

This was worth it to watch it for around 16 hours. The ending is also very satisfying. But I was really missing beak nam-gu in the ending scene where four of them were clicking photos. I really wanted him to be there with his wife although his wife cheated but in the end his wife also have a happy ending. This story is a must watching story! I also very much enjoy Kwon Nara(Han Bom), too!!! ?

Dragon Blade (2015), directed by Daniel Lee, presents an epic blend of Eastern and Western cinema, anchored by Jackie Chan’s dynamic performance. Jackie Chan delivers a performance that is both charismatic and physically impressive. As Huo An, a former general who becomes a defender of the Silk Road, Jackie Chan brings his signature martial arts skills to the forefront, offering some of the film’s most dynamic and engaging action sequences. His ability to convey both physical prowess and a sense of honor and justice is a highlight of the film. John Cusack, playing the Roman general Lucius, provides a grounded but somewhat restrained performance, while Adrien Brody's portrayal of the villain Tiberius is intense but occasionally melodramatic.

The film’s story, set during the Han Dynasty, attempts to merge Roman and Chinese elements but ends up feeling predictable and underdeveloped. The script’s dialogue is often stilted, and the pacing is uneven, affecting overall engagement. However, the action sequences are a highlight, featuring impressive choreography and grand-scale battles that capture the epic nature of the narrative.

Visually, Dragon Blade impresses with its elaborate sets and costumes, enhancing the historical atmosphere. Despite its flaws in storytelling and character depth, the film offers an entertaining spectacle, particularly for fans of action and historical epics. Overall, it’s a solid 7/10, with notable strengths in action and visual presentation.

Heal Your Broken Heart

I just completed watching this drama and it really amazing. So, I wanna give a honest review this drama is super. This is most beautiful romantic dramas I have ever gone through. Both the characters doctor ye and the president are really cute. Even child from 12 age can watch. Adults may find it less likely but it’s seriously great. I love watching it.

Story:-
The story is narrated through Ye Shilan's perspective, how she changes from an inferior character to a positive person; she meets her savior, her Venus. This is quite a slow burn, pull-push kind of relationship which is subtle and humorous. The couple’s official relationship begins in Episode 16 when they are more open to their closest friends. I'm usually not a very patient person with intentionally made misunderstandings and wasteful moments. However, I find the development of romance here very charming and interesting; it's the little moments that are precious and unforgettable. The dialogues are so funny that at times viewers must think twice to get the meaning and truly understand the words. I feel the scriptwriter has given the viewers one of the best dialogue writings here, subtly funny, humorous, oxymoronic, and paradoxical.

Chemistry:-
The chemistry between the leads are top notch, I love seeing them act and I'm also very much in love with both lead characters too. Many people might love the male lead more, but I had a different opinion as I got hooked by the female lead instead. I truly admired and empathized the female lead for her hard-work and dedication to become a doctor and how hard it is dealing with office politics. I like how they tricked and disturbed each other, creating many sweet and yet hilarious scenes.

Side characters:-
There are also no annoying ex-girlfriends nor ex-boyfriends, no toxic relationship nor emotional hijacks, no evil parents trying to break them up, but a pair of very engaging best friends who later become our beloved side couple. Unlike in other dramas where the OTP’s best friends always give silly and outlandish ideas, the best friends here, Yao Jiajia and Lin Keven, are intelligent and analytical, giving our couple insights and sound advices, helping them to see themselves and find each other.

Sound Track:
There is one major annoyance and that is the OST. The "You are part of my life" song is rather horrible & they kept playing it seemingly all the time. Although there are 3 main songs in this drama and they are decent. I do think they are overplayed a bit. There are some funny sound effects to complement many comedic moments. However, I also feel that these sound effects can seem somewhat manipulative in forcing me to feel a certain way. Which I think is a negative point.

overall I highly recommend this drama if you like something short and sweet, not too fancy nor exaggerating type of sweet comedy romance.

Nothing but a Masterpiece

The best youth drama for me. A very realistic plot that surpasses other youth chinese drama. The chemistry between Xu Mengjie and Chen Zheyuan is really really good. You will never get tired of it. TRUST ME! :)

Both leads were perfect fit for the role and showed excellent chemistry. This is the only drama I've seen where story revolves around both high school and University life equally. The high school romance is as close to real life, subtle yet powerful. Shyness depicted by both lead actors in high school were to THE point. Their interactions made me blush. No unnecessary touching, physical proximity, intense stares, etc. Director did a splendid job in bringing out the true emotions of high school top student.
Supporting characters were also amazing and made high school story good to great. Second lead was even more handsome. This drama is so hilariously funny! Watch it for a nice time of laughter with the really good looking young cast.

It is really unforgettable and you will never regret watching it. I definitely recommend this drama.
