Beautiful story about love and growing
One of the best Kdrama that I have ever watched. If you are looking for a heartfelt and warm show to watch and unwind, it's for you!Bittersweet moments that i found so relatable to myself. Lines are so moving and touching, letting my tears drop when I watched the show and chill at dinner time.
The best part is that each episode has the moment that you are felt so relatable and touching, to feel laugh out loud, to feel hurt, to feel frustrated and repeat.
I love how the show are plotted and I love the show are trying to comfort and teach us the lessons of our life journey in this world.
A story about forgiving, finding yourself, family, love, independent, growing in a beautiful way.

Ninja mode: activated. ⚔️ Only a Shinobi can stop a Shinobi
Loved it! Liked it even more than I was expecting to, and I had been keeping an eye on this show ever since it was first announced. I lived in Japan for a while and have long been a fan of Japanese classic samurai/ninja cinema. It is so awesome to see this show bring back some of the great shinobi tropes, themes, lore, etc. From the great classic shinobi films of the 1960s (which are largely little unknown outside Japan). I particularly REALLY liked the depth of character/family development here, the emphasis on the human element of being a shinobi/ninja, and to see excellent martial art action that is done in a very grounded, realistic manner. The action was fast, visceral and not over the top, which made it all the more impactful.The show is not perfect of course, but on the whole very entertaining and well done... The acting, production quality and action are all top notch and this is the exact kind of high quality drama series that I've been waiting to come out of Japan for a while now. There are so many original, interesting things Japan could be doing with TV/streaming series incorporating unique, rich cultural elements and the unmatched cool factor of samurai/ninja history, lore, etc. We will hopefully see even more productions in the future along these lines!
I really hope House of Ninjas gets a season 2! The first season has wonderfully established a world, a unique style/aesthetic, characters we care about, interesting themes and realistic badass action which could really be expanded upon in future seasons. More please!

recommend watching !!!!!!
I absolutely love how different the drama is, not actually predictable and it has the right amount of everything, its funny, inspirational, dramatic, romantic and sweet.Not going to deny that for a few episodes all the guilt tripping they love so much in korean dramas got to my nerves, but I have gotten used to it by now.
This is One of the few dramas where you can see the love and the relationship of the main couple grow and develop. They have an incredible electrifying chemistry and it feels so real. The way they tease each other and their conversations, it all looks so real.
The side stories are also great with a lot of interesting characters and unique personalities, there's nothing cliché about this show!! Be ready for a lot of funny and silly moments, the relationship of the dads and coaches and all that bickering between them had me laughing so much!
The male lead is one of the most balanced and least toxic characters out there, he is mature and always respectful of whatever the female lead wants to do.
I'm really looking forward to keep seeing dramas like this.

Magnificent, Suspenseful & Romantic Drama
It's a fantasy revenge drama about a woman who witnesses the affair between her best friend and her husband, and is murdered by them, she goes back in time to change her future and seek revenge.This kdrama is also based on webtoon. (This has became new trend), but as per webtoon readers, makers have done some changes.
You get invested in the drama from 1st scene.
Story progresses with ample twists & turns, though we already know where it is heading.
Casting of Park Min-young as FL and Lee Yi-kyung as main villain is perfect. Specially Lee Yi-kyung is not only good in his villainous acts but he was equally good in comedy scenes. Park Min-young does what she is famous for. Her acting is perfect.
Na In-woo has wooden face but he is ok as lead as his only duty is to support FL. Good enough romantic scenes between leads.
1st female villain, is good in dramatic scenes but she screamed a lot, which was annoying.
In later episodes they bring another female vamp, which is not needed, she just increases the screen time.
It's a soap opera type kdrama, good watch for kdrama lovers.
Supporting cast is good. Drama ends with predictable happy ending. I enjoyed watching it.

Started stronger that it ended but still was very good.
I think the craziness of the social media bullying and how fast opinions of people and fandom changes in Korea only makes sense if you actually follow a bit of that world. If you haven't experienced how toxic those fanatics are, you will think this series is just exaggerating a lot, but trust me, it isn't. In Korea, fandoms have ended whole careers just because their favorite idol have started a relationship with someone they didn't like or they have had rumors or bullying in school, it's a CRAZY conservative Society, and they act like mobs on social media.
So basically this super thrilling and fast paced drama depicts exactly this social media world in korea, where your can have everything given to you, or taken from you immediately, because unfortunately in these societies it doesn't really matter how talented you are, its all about how much you are liked.
I love the female lead, she has such feisty personality, she is so smart and she won't ever compromise her values. I also love her as actress, I absolutely love all her dramas, ( cant wait for sweet home 2!) and the tension and crazy electrifying attraction she has with the male lead in this drama is just ridiculous, without even speaking. Love them!!
I won't give it a 10 because towards the end they did a couple on nonsensical things that were a bit dumb with the mum and the best friend, I think it could have been a more polished and smart turn in that sense.
