Full House (2004)

I HATED the ML, ironic because I started this drama for him.

I really liked the FL in this drama, and I usually don't for old Kdramas. The ML got on my nerves, I mean the romance was sweet between the leads, but the bickering went TOO FAR. I don't know how the FL didn't burst out crying because of some of the shit the ML says, because I cried. Ji Eun was a really strong FL similar to the FL's in current Kdramas. My heart broke a million times watching this drama and I just wanted the FL to give up on the ML altogether.

I LOVED the SML, which is funny because I started this drama after being sure that Rain was the ML. I had really bad second lead syndrome in this drama, not because the FL and SML had better chemistry, but because their friendship was better than any romance between the ML and FL. Yeong Jae was such a PRICK to Ji Eun and he had so much double standards, I couldn't believe how blind he was at the double standards he had for Ji Eun and Min Hyuk but couldn't see how he was worse with Hye Won. The fact that the ML was nicer and much more understanding towards the FL when they were strangers and not when they were married, really annoyed me. If you're going to get married to someone, even if it's not real, you should at least respect the person you're married to. Yeong Jae had no respect for Ji Eun and it took until the end of the drama for him to finally respect her as a friend (first) and then as a WIFE, if it even reached that point. He really told her that she means NOTHING to him as a person and he always compared her to an inanimate object, not to mention laughed in her face when she confessed her potential feelings for him, at that point, he just became a joke.

As much as I loved Ji Eun, I couldn't stand how many chances she gave Yeong Jae. I got sick of her love for him when he told her MANY times that she meant nothing to him.

Yeong Jae was similar to the SML in My Little Princess (Cdrama), only here, he was married and not engaged to her. The SML in My Little Princess is so much better than Yeong Jae overall, because he at least had some good qualities personality wise. I also HATED the FL's so called friends, they were the cause to almost all the problems in this drama.

The only characters that made this show worth watching are Ji Eun and Min Hyuk.

This was my 3-4 time rewatch the series,I was happy it was added to Wntflix. It was really hilarious and easy going from the start and gets abit rocky later on. I must say that music and chemistry with two lead actors really carried out the show for me and it’s a really lovely revisit. I however disagree that too much fight or they didn’t communicate well, have you like been in a relationship?The only that really yell was Yeoung-Jae and not Ji-eun, unless she was really provocative, they both really stubborn at times and clashes cus they are kinda alike - so ofc there be fighting like this. And His friends are more mature and try help him grow

Young-Jae is really childlike and can’t express his feelings well, so I can understand why he express it will childlike way and often drag ji-eun along, but you kinda se him evolution through the the series. I thought it was sweet series and worth a rewatch.

sweet romance with beautiful mains

It's old and simple romance, nothing new or deep, but it's really sweet to watch, because of main leads are really beautiful people and nice characters, also these old dramas are more free, without usual clieches (yes, there are clieches, bot not so many and same as we see in 90% modern dramas, where every story, character and situations are in same narrative); in old dramas even clothes are more free, characters act more free with less taboos, it doesn't have to be first and only love and many things like this...

drama would be better with less episodes, because there isn't much story and it's repetitive, they fight and FL or they together clean up house (like all the time), but still I didn't wanted to skip, though I'm skipping 90% dramas).

best thing in this romance is realistic emotional developments, I mean when person loves someone very much it wont change in one day, even if old love is SFL and new FL ))) ML's feelings aren't changing fast and it's natural, though FL is much better person then SFL, more beautiful and nice, supportive (SFL is very selfish and depressive person, nothing to like, but the fact that ML loves him very much is natural, because he loved him from childhood) .

so recommend it, at list you will look at really beautiful boy and girl, nice FL and sexy charismatic ML )))

Um Kdrama de contrato de casamento

Esse foi meu primeiro k-drama com o plot de contrato de casamento. No geral o drama é bem divertido, ri muito assistindo. É o tipo de dorama perfeito para relaxar antes de dormir, é bem leve, plot sem complicações.

Após ter sido enganada pelos seus melhores amigos, JiEun fica sem teto e passa a conviver como faxineira de Yeong Jae, um super astro que está enfrentando dificuldades por causa de um filme ruim. Ao se envolver cada vez mais na vida de Yeong Jae, Ji Eun acaba assinando um contrato de casamento por 6 meses.

Mas há momentos que dá muita raiva. A partir de agora cuidado, poderá ter spoiler! ⚠️

A atuação de todos os envolvidos é muito boa, os protas tem uma química engraçada. Você consegue ver ambos lutando contra e a favor dos próprios sentimentos.

Uma coisa que me irritou muito foi o plot extenso do "primeiro amor" do Yeong Jae, muitas vezes esse personagem foi irritante. E algo que foi divertidíssimo: o figurino dele. Gente... Agostinho Carrara tinha mais estilo (Brasileiro sabe de quem estou falando... Sim... Agostinho, o ícone fashion).

Han Ji Eun é super carismática, divertida e ingênua. Muitas vezes quis colocá-la num pote para protegê-la. É uma personagem muito fofa, e que mesmo passando as dificuldades não desiste do sonho de ser roteirista.

Recomendo muitíssimo esse drama, minha mãe amou. É muito engraçado, há momentos de raiva? Sim, mas não deixa de ser um drama bom. Dei 9.5 porque achei um pouco extenso o plot do primeiro amor do Yeong Jae, ele é insuportável com isso. Mas entendo a necessidade do plot. Quem quiser assistir algo leve, divertido tem que dar play nesse drama.

Espero que gostem ❤️

A classic but not great.

I did mostly enjoy this drama, it is a classic but I must admit that it isn't the greatest.
I did find myself skipping through a lot of the "filler" in each episode. I find that tends to be a common element in older Kdramas.

The story is honestly very basic, very middle of the road. There is absolutely nothing spectacular or unique about it. It is your basic average girl meets a rich guy who ends up being an enemies-to-lovers story.

The acting is pretty good, especially considering these top stars were very young at the time. The OST is cute. The rewatch value is low, I mean I guess if you just want to rewatch it for nostalgia purposes but it's not interesting enough to watch more than once.

Overall, again it's not bad, but it's not great, it's just okay.

She gives as good as she gets!

This is a classic from a bygone age. A very colourful & simple tale of a very beautiful couple falling in love.
The couple in question are none other than a very young Song Hye-kyo & Rain aka Jeong Ji-hoon. They have incredible chemistry together. The fashion, hair & accessories are all fun and utilised to reflect changes in the characters personalities. I must say Rain is so beautiful and cute here. I can't believe that when he was starting out he was rejected from an audition because he didn't have double eyelid surgery!!!! WHAT!!! He's perfect just the way he is, just like a lion! Celebrate don't criticise difference! Song Hye-kyo doing comedy is a welcome sight, I only knew her from melodramas before. She's very cute & childish in this, that is up until the end when she decides to act all mature for a second and then I wonder if they really should be together! The second couple where just used as plot devices and not very interesting in themselves.
You may ask yourselves...why are they always cleaning the house??? I think it's a metaphor for their relationship and how you both always have to keep putting work into it or it will become a mess, or it could be because the house was specifically built for the series and they wanted to get their money's worth! Sadly, after being a tourist attraction for a few years it got destroyed in a tsunami in 2013.
Around episode 12 it gets all serious & teary. It's dragged out the usual 16 for no reason. People forgive very easily in this show where fraud, burglary, lying, cheating don't seem to have consequences (even the pregnancy of her so-called friend doesn't show) as we discover in the final episode which is wrapped up in a pretty bow, and I have to say their kiss in the tent was extremely disappointing, was this show made for kids? and after all that sexual build-up!!! 2 wedding proposals with no meaningful first kiss from either fella! Ah the good old Victorian Era in 2004!
And seriously they use the phrase 'Aja Aja Fighting' way too much towards the end. It's as if they ran out of dialogue and used it as a filler.
The soundtrack has just one good song and that's the Korean song, the rest are English pop hits from the 60's & 70's. I'm really glad South Koreans now make their own OST's for their Kdramas. They're a million times better!

a waist of time

the drama starts with a good premise.
the two main leads meet because of unfortunate circumstances and they agree to share a house and get married and make the best out 9f the situation.

the drama starts pretty well. the first episodes are engaging and we follow the leads around in their messy living situation.
it becomes pretty clear that they like each others but due to lingering feelings towards other people don't get a chance to live happily.

after 7 episodes the drama gets frankly really boring. nothing of substance ever happens. we basically watch them bickering over dumm stuff and cleaning the house for hours.
the characters are childish and frustrating. they constantly yell at other and say dumm stuff because o their own ego.

at a certain point they decide to break up the marriage and part ways but I still don't know why exactly.
the drama drags out for another 9 episode where basically the same old dynamics take place. they fight, they yell, they hold grudge, they clean the house and so on so forth.

I kept watching just to see how the writers will wrap things up... let me tell you, you LL have to wait until the second part of the last episode to see them getting together.

tis should be light ROM com, but the ROM part is nowhere to found. in 15episodes we don't see a kiss not even a hug between any of the characters , not even the side ones.
you'll get to see a kiss an the last episode and that's it.

I am kin of disappointed because I heard good thing about it.

the actors aregoo thou and the music is fine, just. but repetitive.

Full house : The funniest K-Drama Ever

So, i know this is a really old k-drama and it has been 16 or 17 years ago? But, I just wanna tell all the K-drama fans nowadays that u guys should watch this drama because it is a masterpiece. No matter how old u are, no matter u are a boy or a girl, this drama will got to you. I know some people doesn't want to try it because it is too old and the cinematography is too old, but believe me, TRY IT! and u will find urself entangled in every episode just like me. There are several things that makes me fall in love with this drama. The first one, is the cast. I love both song hye kyo and rain, they both beautiful and act their best out in this drama. Their chemistry is the best, it is so funny and touching at the same time. The second one is the OST, it is so memorable and beautiful, I like it so much. And the last one is the story, maybe this is not the strongest part for most of people, but I love this kind of story so much (about forced marriage). It is not so complicated and just revolves around their relationship. Overall, I think this drama deserve more attention nowadays and I hope more people will watch it in the near future. And for addition, the reason why I give rewatch value 10 is because I have rewatched it before I write this review. The funny thing Is i just watched it for the first time in 2020 and it's not even past a year and i already rewatch it. So, that's all about full house, i hope it is useful

A good drama but they are also boring and annoying.

Hello, to all this drama has a good basic scenario but I found it too repetitive.

Han Ji Eun and Lee Yeong Jae are too much to yell at themselves even when they know they love each other, for me it was a bit boring and enervating.

Kang Hye Won and Yu Min Hyuk for me go better together, even if Kang Hye Won does everything to be with Lee Yeong Jae while debus she makes it clear for me that she loves him but that since he does not show what he feels, she prefers to be with Yu Min Hyuk.

Yu Min Hyuk will gradually fall in love with Han Ji Eun, even if he sees that for her he only has a good friend.

The friends of the female main character, for my part she is too kind to them even if at times her can be funny at other times they make you want to tell them ( their four truths and to go see go if I am ) sorry two expression use in france.

Overall I already suspected how it would end, I would have preferred more time where Han Ji Eun and Lee Yeong Jae are together as two person in love.
For my part I would have liked a break end of episode 9 and that they find themselves in the 11 and they could have faced the problems together at that time.

I wish everyone a good day and a big thank you for reading me.

Esse é o clássico de 16 episódios pra dar um selinho no final Kkkkk

As atitudes do Yeong Jae com a Han Jin me incomodaram, era muita briga e humilhação pra pouquíssima demonstração de afeto.

Han Jin é a personagem mais ingênua que já vi (chega dá raiva) os "amigos" mandaram ela pra outro país numa falsa viagem "totalmente paga", praticamente zerada de grana, vendeu a casa dela, além de ter feito um empréstimo no nome da mesma e ela continua com essas pessoas ao seu lado????

Yeong Jae, era legal e engraçado por alguns segundos, no restante era imaturo e meio besta em insistir num primeiro amor de infância enquanto em contra partida humilhava a Han Jin.

Hye Won, a amiga inconveniente, sério, essa mulher me tirou a paciência no nível extremo, tive zero pena dela.

Os primeiros episódios tem um ritmo bom mas no meio fica enrolado e a gritaria dos protagonistas o tempo inteiro se torna cansativo.

Como essa garota se apaixonou por uma pessoa que a tratava basicamente como lixo?? Ela estava sempre em segundo plano, sempre esperando por ele. No mínimo ela devia ter escolhido o secundário que a valorizava de verdade.

Para esse drama ser melhor, os protagonistas deveriam ser menos infantis, além de ter mais diálogo e um desenvolvimento amoroso mais notável.

Real Estate Scam

As per design, this is the usual love square quarrels from the 2000s, following the blueprint precisely but with one major unforgivable flaw. It's expected from this formula to have a loose story not adhering to reality, common sense or logic, in one way or another it blends and enhances its entertaining value to push forward the narrative and dynamics. However, this drama went beyond what the viewers may deem passable in that regard with how they snowballed the setup involving the FL's friends, and her friends existence in general, pure atrocity. I refuse to believe that the writer spent more than 1-2 minutes thinking about the initial setup. Admittedly, the cast is what kept it alive and watchable, from the main leads to the elder cast, absolutely excluding the duo friends. The resolution and the romance in general felt quite distant from the characters, probably because they held it off for too long before establishing a clear communication between the leads which only happened in the last episode. Overall, the drama was just alright.
