For me this is the best Japanese teen romance story I have ever seen. With a great underlying detective story that we follow episode by episode with bated breath:) I couldn't wait for the episodes to be subbed and actually joined a subbing site just to down load the torrents!

Narumi Hikaru totally seduced me with his bad boy image, as he seduced Suga Mizuho. This is full of eye candy with up and coming Japanese actors I plan to see more of.

And it's short, episodes are only,(well MDL says 30) but I think they are only 25 minutes long.

Anyway Love Love It! it's a masterpiece..watch it :)

This is getting a lot of negative reviews and I just don't get it. Maybe because the cast is young and beautiful they were expecting a sweet romance and they were disappointed.

This was a story about competition, greed and fear. And these actors gave us a heck of a emotional time. I've heard reviewers calling these characters bi-polar but I viewed them as desperate, willing to do anything to survive. There was no good guy vs bad guy. Both male leads did bad things and good things...they were very human. Young Gul was a tad too intense for my taste and I ended up rooting for Je Hyuk of the beautiful soulful eyes. (lol)
I admit that even I was complaining about Ga young..but she is a young character only 21 so her actions weren't unusual.

I liked it..I especially liked the ending.. it was artistic and we are all talking about it...what more could a writer want?

P.S I only gave it a 7 because I'm a rom/com type girl :)

Do you want to watch a great fairy tale? Here you go. This movie has fun action, romance and comedy. I especially enjoyed the pretty snake girls, I totally believed they were snakes!

I felt this story had a nice moral and could be enjoyed by the whole family. And I've actually watched this movie twice, so I recommend you give it a try sit back and enjoy.

Fun filled fantasy adventure, seriously. I've been missing stuff like this since I began watching Asian dramas.

I loved the characters most in this story where everyone is in love. It was about how they loved and how they acted because of love. Of course there were fancy weapons and magical battles too :D Evan dragons! who doesn't love a good dragon?


And I can't say enough about the costumes. I loved the head pieces. Sure some of the minor characters had bad "cosplay" type attire but lets balance that out with the special effects which were eye catching.

My favorite character was General Wei Liao, he is cute and oh so funny. I would have done exactly what he did if I was him...LOL

What I really enjoyed about this drama was the look at traditional Chinese lifestyle in modern China. They showed us a beautiful old house and explained old traditions that I found interesting.
The story sucked me in and kept me entertained from the first episode, and I couldn't stop watching.
The chemistry between the couple was good and their bickering amused me. I wish there was more romance in it though.
Unfortunately around episode 19 things became very dramatic and deep and the fun went out of the show ( or maybe I was just tired...I dramathoned it) and the last episode was like a Jeep commercial lol

If you want to watch something good, Chinese and interesting this is for you.

Donnie Yen's muscles and kung fu moves, Nicholas Tse's pretty face and spinning kicks, adorable children and a masked bad guy with super kung fu powers. YES! My type of week end movie :)

The style of the movie was a little strange at first because it is in modern times but I was somehow surprised when they pulled out a cell phone. :)

I know I should write a longer review but really, it's a Kung Fu movie. What can I say, I liked it.

A lot of people are scoring this drama as a 9 or 10. I am not.

It's not because of Suzy, I think Suzy is beautiful and fit this role pretty well. Her character was one of the best female leads in an action drama. She was kick ass and yet feminine. Good job on that writers.

And though historicals aren't my favorite,that's not why either...Fantasy is my favorite genre and this had adequate special effects to meet my expectations.

The action...was not a 9 or a 10...it was just okay.

After the first few amazing episodes the story bogged down with the sister and the bad guy for the whole middle of the drama. Things picked back up nearer the end..but you can't make up for 12 episodes of boring.

The main reason I am scoring this lower than others is because I never laughed once...where is the comic relief? There wasn't any. They never once pulled any kind of emotion out of me.(except for lust; Daddy Wol Ryung is hot!) So it gets a 6.

But if there is a second season I will watch it:)

Epic fantasy advevture. Epic means lots of battles, sword fighting and horses, lots of horses. Fantasy; the first two episodes could have been a movie with all the special effects. The story here was amazing, a prince told he was chosen by heaven to rule and how he came to terms with that.
And yes this is a romance :)
The ending..since other reviewers have commented on the end I will too.
YOU NEED TO READ THE WORDS AT THE ENDING!!!

well I was only going to give this show a 9 but 4 out of 4 were 10 so there you go...I usually never give music a 10 but I really loved the songs for this cute romatic comedy.

If we vote for best couple this year this pair has my vote hands down!
They are so funny and cute together :)

what else can I say...um I (lol) watched the last 3 episodes without subtitles that is how addictive it is :D

This wasn't a teen flick but it wasn't that racy either. It is rated R but it wasn't as explicit as say Green Chair or even A Frozen Flower.
The bed scenes were mostly funny and awkward. But I guess it was mostly bed scenes lol.

I found it funny and charming. Lee Min Ki and Kim Hye Soo were a very funny pair.:)

The good parts: Satou , the black ghosts
But the story was supposed to be about Nagai Kei and I just didn't feel that. His character was flat and just went through the motions. The anime is much better and I imagine the Manga is better yet. They got rid of his friend and kept his sister.. probably for that fight scene. Anyway I liked the special effects... there should have probably been more blood, but any more would have made me sick so that was good.
oh yea.. I couldn't help noticing that this version of Tanaka is especially hot. lol That was a little distracting.

first off, it is finally subtitled...few! that took forever O.O

I actually loved the plot. The lead actress quickly grew on me and became more beautiful as the story progressed. I loved, loved the In Tak character, lol, our leading man was a fun hot mess. Also his secretary was great fun.
I did watch it faithfully and enjoyed most of the episodes but I got pretty bored about episode 17 and skipped to episode 20...hence, my 7.

So if you want to see the Vampire Prosecutor in a different light, watch this.


P.S. the answer is no, and yes. :)

White Christmas is a psychological thriller, I guess. I have to say I really enjoyed the first 4 episodes where we got to know the kids and try to figure out who sent the black letter...it was fun!

The second half of the drama was not as much fun and may be interesting to people under the age of 25 or those who are still interested in philosophy. I found the second half pretty predictable plot wise, but did enjoy the struggles these young people went through.

The end was very satisfying.

I liked Panda and Hedgehog but I didn't love it. The cast is very easy on the eye and the acting is good except for Lee Dong Hae. But I found the back story confusing at first. One good thing is it didn't drag anywhere, the last episode had a few flashbacks but stuff happened so.. good ending.

Now lets talk about the beautiful cakes! who can make beautiful colorful cakes and cookies like that? and how much would they cost? If you could find the clientele you could really rake the money in!
I wish I could taste them!

in conclusion I didn't love it, but I love cake!

As I watched this scifi adventure I was only giving it a 6 because of inconsistancies, I kinda like my science fiction to make a little since.
But I upped my rating because I was on the edge of my seat and rooting for these kids to survive. I thought the acting was pretty darn good. And I especially liked that this J drama did not have the cartoon feel that I see so often in Japanese drama.
The story is just so so because it is super preachy and I don't like preachy.
The romance was sweet.

Loved the crazzy theme song. lol
