    1-Why did i watched this : My friends kept pushing me to watch it and there was the great reviews everywhere, so i decided to give it a shot. Before writing this review i was thinking how would i put my openion about this seeing all the gd reviews should i be diplomatic or what? then i just decided to spill it out frankly.

    2-Storyline/Plot : It wasn't bad but it wasn't one of the greatest storylines that i've watched. The first episodes were perfect and if it went that way i was going to rate this a 9 but it just took wrong turns later, the kind of turns that made me skip parts while The general plot was acceptable.

    I first decided to watch this drama because I was in the mood for it. Feeling rather lovesick etc. I had always heard good things about Personal Taste, and had seen how popular it was, so I decided to give it a go...

    Story: First 10 episodes 9/10, last 6 episodes 4/10. Their is a huge discrepancy between the first couple of episodes and the last couple of episodes (at least for me). I highly enjoyed the first couple of episodes. They were highly entertaining and PERFECT for my mood, but as I came upon the end I started disliking certain aspects of it.

    Acting/Cast 10/10 : The actors were all flawless and I enjoyed their acting a lot.

    Music 8/10: The Music was pretty good,     read more

  • The premises are more or less the same: two people with little or nothing in common live under the same roof and inevitably fall in love. If you liked the first, it's easy you'll like the second. If you didn't, the same parallel applies

    It's amazing. I've only watched until 12, because I think now they are dating, I'm afraid all those cliches will come up.

      You're a dumbass -_-*

      After watching the first three episodes, I do disagree, but no need to be rude to get your point across.

      Well sorry, but I just don't understand how somebody could not like this entertaining show. Especially after watching only couple of episodes...

      Evidently a lot of people didn't like it, so it's not just one person. People have different tastes. That's the answer :P

      I watched it all , Sarah, it's the most awful drama I watched so far. Of course, this is my opinion, and we must respect each other's points of view ;).

    • Sarahmi Apr 7, 2012
      It's probably not your genre.
    • ItsWayne Apr 8, 2012
      Well, to be honest, My Girlfriend is a Gumiho, Secret Garden, Densha Okto, My Girlfriend is a Fujoshi, and It Started with a Kiss were all my genre. Since personal taste is the same genre, I can only assume it was the bland actress.

      You can't judge after watching only couple of series.
    • ItsWayne Apr 9, 2012
      Well, compared to them... let's just say that this one didn't stack up.
    • devitto Apr 10, 2012
      I didn't like it either. I'm stuck at Episode 6 because I have too less free time to spend watching a drama I dislike. I still want to finish it one day to find out what people like so much about it.
      I also sometimes can't understand why people dislike my favorite dramas, but everyone has a different taste. I'm glad people do. :D

  • Byaku-chan Mar 27, 2012
    Okay I just finished the first 2 episodes, does it get better than that? I disliked that In Hee or what that betrayers name is, I don't like the male main char so far (I bet he'll change but for now he's arrogant and a little boring), the female main char is just plain stupid and kinda annoying so I'm really disppointed since everyone here seems to love it.
    I like the idea of the story so I really hope it'll get better but honestly, when will they stop fighting and start the story already?... Sigh, I really expect more of it and I sincerely hope it'll get better since I really want to like the dorama... But yeah..
    • Rian Mar 27, 2012
      Sadly, it does not get better, as I stated in my review of this drama, some like it from the beginning, some do not. Read through all the reviews, not just the top 2,to get a better picture ;).

    • Byaku-chan Mar 28, 2012
      Hmm okay, I think I will :) I don't dislike it though it's a little boring for the begin if you ask me. I do plan to watch at least a few episodes to give it another shot and I hope I'll come to like it since the story/actors are likeable, even though their characters are a littke... annoying sometimes xD
    • Rian Mar 28, 2012
      Go right ahead, I hope you'll like it, it's never fun not liking a drama you star watching :).
    • Byaku-chan Mar 29, 2012
      Thanks, I hope so too (: I'm pretty stubborn about finishing whatever I've started to watch so yeah... :P
    • Rian Mar 29, 2012
      Hehe, I'm the same way, although I didn't like Personal taste, I watched the whole thing T.T
    • SarahLawrence5 Apr 16, 2012
      When I watched the first two I though it was a bit boring, but once I got into the drama I saw its awesomeness. I recommend everyone to give this drama a chance. :P I always watch the first 5 episodes to see if it's good...Unless it is really boring, I give up on it.
