Story:
This is probably one of my favourite Action, Crime, Law, Mystery, Political, Romance, Suspense drama's ever. Honestly I don't normally watch action, crime, law or political drama's unless they have some sort of romance between the lead characters. I thought that a romance drama was the only type of drama that I could be interested in watching, boy was i wrong. Although there is not much romance in the drama and the law/political side of the drama is a bit mehh, the action scenes and the smart strategising "city hunter" uses to capture his enemies, makes up for everything else! It has a realllllllly smart story line, which I admit I love (smart things), but it was also executed great!

Acting/Cast:
I'm no film critic, or pro actor/actress, but I seriously think the acting in this drama was greatttttt! I love Lee Min Ho fullstop. But that does not make me biased towards his acting skills, I honestly think he is a great actor, especially in this drama. He played a good looking guy who is good at everything, and uses his everything for well planned revenge. Park Min Young's character was quiet different from the normal female lead as she was strong, yet pretty and feminine, however it was still the usual poor female, rich male type of drama (not saying I don't like this type of drama, I actually find it more entertaining than a rich female and poor male...). Although there wasn't much romance in this drama, the lead character's were so well together, that without being romantic, you could feel their love and affection for each other. The second lead male was really good to, but he never really made me want to give him Kim Nana (Park Min Young). If he were to be any part of the drama, I really wanted him to be best friends with Lee Yoon Sung/City Hunter (Lee Min Ho). They were so cool together on screen.

Music:
Because the music was good, this helped to make the drama even better (like music does to any drama). It wasn't the best OST I have heard (like BBF or Secret Garden), but it is still nice and matches the drama well. Whenever it comes on in my iTunes, it does make me nostalgic, sometimes making me want to watch it again. Notable songs from the OST are: "So Goodbye" by Jonghyun, "Love" by Yim Jae Bum and "I love u, I want u, I need u" by Apple Mango.

Rewatch?
Yes I would rewatch it, and I do often. Of course I don't watch the wholeeeee thing again, because I will admit there are parts of the drama that you can only really watch once in your lifetime, because they aren't that interesting. But any scene with Lee Min Ho in it is bound to be rewatched many times.

Overall:
I honestly did not watch this drama until probably a year after it came out, because the genre did not interest me. But after watching it, I regret holding off for so long. EVEN if you only watch romance dramas, I recommend this drama! I also recommend this drama if you like to watch action, strategy type dramas, because it is goooood!

Story:
The story for this drama was quite different to any other Korean drama I had watched, so it was really interesting. It pulled me in right away! I couldn't wait each week for the next episodes. At first the ghosts were a bit frightening... but then the ghost theme gradually became less noticeable, having more emphasis on the actual romance of the leads. There wasn't really a particular storyline (like with revenge...), but more just the storyline of why or why not the main leads can be together (which was kinda all determined by the ghost seeing power). Overall it was still veryyyyyy interesting to watch!

Acting/Cast:
The cast for this drama acted great! There was great chemistry between the main leads and the secondary leads. I realllllly liked So Ji Sub's character and Gong Hyo Jin's character. They both changed drastically through the duration of the drama. Gong Shil went from a clingy, whiney girl to a mature, independent woman. Joong Won went from a heartless, money hungry man to a devoted, loving man. I loved seeing their characters change.

Music:
This drama had realllllly good music. I even listen to it now just in my normal playlist. It helped to create the emotions and set the scenes better. Whenever I hear the songs again from the OST, they bring back happy, sad, funny moments from the drama... and makes me want to watch it all over again.

Rewatch?
Definitely! It has not a boring moment during the whole drama. I could watch it all again and still feel as good as I did the first time I watched it. I secretly wish it went for longer so I could watch the lead character's chemistry for longer.

Overall:
If you haven't already watched it... watch it! It is really interesting! You won't be disappointed... I hope. It is already very popular and highly rated, so it is worth a go.

Story:
This story is probably one of the most creative and awesome Korean dramas I have seen. It kinda reminds me of "How I Met Your Mother". I love the suspense of wondering who who whoooo? There were so many hilarious moments in this drama that had me laughing even after watching it. The romance was pretty laid back but that was the way the lead characters had so much chemistry. This whole drama felt more like a story of friendship rather than a story of unrequited love.

Acting/Cast:
Pretty awesome. At times the supporting roles felt a bit awkward but that was probably what gave them their character. Everyone pulled off the Busan accent so well that I thought it was their actual accent. Everyone of the friends had great chemistry with each other and they felt like one big family.

Music:
I don't quiet remember the music... but that may be because I have only watched it once and only just recently finished it. Although, it still should've left some sort of impression on me for me to want to go and get the OST... but it didn't. It must've still been a good OST, because if it wasn't then the drama wouldn't have been good. All great dramas have a great OST.

Rewatch?
I'm not quiet sure yet because it hasn't been a long time since I finished it. However I do feel as though I will rewatch it one day in the future because it has a nice feeling to it. It makes you feel like you're part of their big family.

Overall:
It is indeed a great drama as can be seen from it's ratings. It is very popular. I admit that I held off watching it because it didn't really grab my attention. I also admit that once I started it... I only watched 3episodes then I dropped it for over 6months. It was so different to the other dramas I had watched beforehand that it felt stupid. Also I was not used to the Busan accent and found it weird. But after reading lots of reviews about it and wondering what everyone was raving about, I decided to give it another try. In the end I realised it is a great drama and it is now in my top 10 dramas of all time. I recommend you give it a try!

Story:
Wow. This is one of those dramas that brings you in, because of the interesting story, great chemistry between the characters and storyline that is different to most other Korean dramas. I was really captivated by this storyline... being unable to wait each week for new episodes. The story has not a dull moment, since there are new stories every few episodes and new court cases that need to be won every few episodes. Fortunately, the ending of the drama left no loose strings... it didn't leave me wondering anything, because everything was explained well in the end.

Acting/Cast:
I loved the cast and acting of this drama! Park Soo Ha (Jong Suk) was amazing in this drama. I was so glad he was finally able to come out as a male lead in a romantic drama (although School 2013 was also great!). The female lead, Lawyer Jjang, was sooooo funnnny! She was so confident in herself, in a funny way. Lawyer Cha was also a good character, however I never really felt he was in a competition for the female lead... which could be a good thing, I guess?

Music:
I really liked the soundtrack of this drama, it was so niceeee. Especially the opening song (Every Single Day - Echo), everytime it came on, I would sing along. The music in this drama definitely added to the emotion and feelings of the drama.

Rewatch?
I would definitely rewatch this drama, and I already have. It has cute romance with great chemistry, great acting and an interesting storyline!

Overall:
I definitely recommend this drama to anyone who is interested in cute innocent romance, law-y stuff and interesting storylines that involve revenge. I am surprised that so little people have actually watched this drama, it is really popular. Most people who have watched it, really like it. So go and give it a go!

Story:
This was one of my first Korean dramas I watched and it was veryyyy new and different to classic TV shows I watched. Four really good looking guys... and a girl. It is an interesting story line with lots of good scenes. However I do feel it drags a bit some places. It is also quiet back and forth, I like you, I don't like you etc. But it still kept me watching and interested right up til the ending.

Acting/Cast:
It has two of my favourite Korean people in it. Lee Min Ho and Kim Hyun Joong. Lee Min Ho was pretty good of an actor, I just didn't feel he had much chemistry with the female lead Koo Hye Sun... unfortunately. Kim Hyun Joong, although he is one of my favourite people... he can't act that well... and it is kinda funny watching him act. He is pretty much just some great eye candy for this drama, along with the other 3 members of F4. Back to the female lead... she was annoying... and reminded me of a child. If the female lead was different perhaps the drama would have been even greater. But I guess that is what the main female character is supposed to be like from the manga and anime. But they didn't annoy me as much as her in this drama.

Music:
This drama, no joke, probably has one of my most favourite OSTs. It is a very memorable one. It even has songs that have made it into my GRAND playlist. All the songs from the soundtrack are really great as they bring back memories from the drama, but not just memories, they also bring back feeeeelings from the drama. Songs that I really like from the soundtrack are: "Because I'm Stupid" by Kim Hyun Joong (Acoustic version), "Making a Lover" by SS501, "Stand by Me" by SHINee and "Lucky" by Ashily. I think what topped the drama for me was actually the music. If the soundtrack was lacking in anyway, I may not have even finished the drama.

Rewatch?
Yesss. Despite the annoying lead and sometimes annoying storyline, it is still a very catchy drama. I think it is the soundtrack that actually makes me go back and watch the drama over and over. Whenever I hear a song from the drama, I contemplate rewatching it. Of course I would skip slow parts and boring parts, but would still enjoy it almost as much as I did the first time watching it.

Overall:
It is one of the most watched Korean dramas. If you haven't seen it you are basically missing out on the drama that set standards in other Korean dramas. This could also be considered the first season of the "flower boy" dramas that are very popular for their pretty boys.

Story:
This story was very funny and interesting. It was the first time I had ever seen something so absurd when it came to love. I found it interesting and was always wondering what will happen in the next episode. It was a fluffy and cute type of drama. However, I will admit the storyline was pretty simple... a girl chasing someone she loves fullstop. There wasn't really any interesting history or big secret or anything in this drama.

Acting/Cast:
Kim Hyun Joong is a great person... but he can't act. I wouldn't have even been able to tell he liked her. Ever. In my whole life. He had no emotions, whatsoever. Occasionally when he flashed his cute mouse smile it made me think he did have emotions... but yeah that was about it. Jung So Min was pretty alright, I guess she made up for Kim Hyun Joong being so bland, because she was pretty crazy. The second male lead... Bong Joon Gu. Oh my goodness. So annoying. He was so annoying. However I have to admit he kinda made the drama a bit funnier.

Music:
The music from this drama is nice. It doesn't really leave a huge impression on me. One of the songs from this OST may come up in my iTunes library occasionally and I think 'oh this is from playful kiss'... but it never really makes me want to go and watch the drama again.

Rewatch?
Of course! Although the acting isn't that great and the story is pretty simple, it is a nice, fun drama to watch. Even if Kim Hyun Joong can't act that well, he is still good to look at for 16hours.

Overall:
It is still one of those dramas that a Korean drama addict should watch because it is quiet popular. It won't pull any heartstrings but it will make you laugh. It is a light and fun drama to watch.

Story:
This was my most favourite Korean movie everrrrrrr. I don't know why, but I just fell in love with it. The story was cute, funny, sad, heart wrenching and very emotional (for me anyway). Of course the story was very unrealistic, however it was very believable (and made me wish I had a werewolf boy too).

Acting/Cast:
The only thing I need to say is: Song Joong Ki. The end. Great actor, I know, I know. He is a pro at capturing the audience's heart. He was also a pro at playing a dog boy, like unbelievably pro, to the extent of almost being a dog boy. I think he is definitely what made this movie so great for me. Of course the female lead was also nice and helped to make the movie great... but Song Joong Ki is the winner.

Music:
It was nice. I don't really remember it that well... but I never do really remember music from movies. All I know is that if the music wasn't good then the movie wouldn't have been as great as it was!

Rewatch?
Yesssss! I think I watched it three times in the same week I first watched it. I had to show my whole family. Even my sister who dislikes watching Korean movies and dramas cried and fell in love with Joong Ki. No joke.

Overall:
This is THE BEST Korean movie (in my opinion). I'm so glad I watched it. It was so nice. I may have lost many litres of tears in the process of watching it, but it was worth it. I recommend everyone watch it. It will only take 2hours of your life and I doubt you will regret it and if you do, I'm sorry that you didn't like it. YES watch it.

Story:
This was one of my first Korean dramas and I thought it was pretty great. It has up to date probably one of the most interesting and crazy storylines. I can admit there have been similar type storylines, but none of them have been able to go from start to finish with a strong storyline, they always seem to flake out with the ending episodes. The story makes you want to keep watching it, without having a break. If you happen to have a break, perhaps to sleep... you can not stop wondering what is going to happen next.

Acting/Cast:
I think Hyun Bin played his character reallllly welllllll. He was so cute and innocent-like. He is a great actor indeed. I don't know why but I don't really like Ha Ji Won as an actress... but she did a great job in this drama! The two leads were REALLY good at portraying each other when they swapped bodies, you could almost see the soul rather than the actual body on screen. I didn't really like OSKA... his voice is a bit annoying... but he was still a vital character in the drama.

Music:
This drama is probably more based on instrumental music rather than music with lyrics. All of the instrumental pieces are really nice and nostalgic when they come on in my iTunes library. However they aren't songs that I would go out of my way to find and listen to. You don't realise this during the drama, but Hyun Bin is actually singing one of the main OST songs... although he isn't a singer, he is surprisingly pretty good.

Rewatch?
Definitelyyyy! I often do. Although it is quiet a long drama, I still seem to watch almost every episode and every part when ever I decide to rewatch it. I especially like to rewatch the romance between the leads because it is so cute and niceee.

Overall:
I recommend this drama to anyone and everyone. Honestly... I think lots of people would like it. I'm sure a lot of people have already seen it because it is one of the most popular Korean dramas, but if you haven't already... I think you should! You don't know what you are missing out on!

Story:
The story line was probably the weak point for this drama. Saying this, I still think it was an interesting story! As I watched the drama as it aired, I was waiting week after week for the new episodes to come out. The story may have been so interesting for me because of the strong cast and their great acting skills.

Acting/Cast:
Of course this drama gained so much 'popularity' because of the cast being well-known. I will admit that Lee Min Ho was what pulled me into the drama, and as soon as I realised Park Shin Hye was playing the female lead, I was completely caught! Two of my favourite actors... together... in a drama... both as the leads! Couldn't be any better. However with such an impressing cast, I was worried that the drama would be a let down, and that I would be disappointed especially with so many 'idols' being casted. Boy was I wrong to even think this. The idols all acted really well! Krystal (f(x)) was veryyyy interesting with Minhyuk (from CN Blue), and Hyungshik (ZE:A) was hilarious to watch. Of course the 2nd male lead Kim Won Bin was also great to watch. He will definitely do great in the future. AND of courseeeee, the main leads lived up to my expectations, hands down. Every character in this drama was interesting, not one annoyed me. Even the evil characters were good.

As you can see... too many great cast to speak about, so little space. Soooo, if you are curious (and haven't watched the drama), go watchhhhhh!

Music:
The music is really nice. It will definitely become one of my top favourite soundtracks in the future. It goes well with the scenes helping to support the emotions.

Rewatch?
YES! Even though the drama finished quite a while ago, I haven't been game to watch it again, as I was sad when the drama finished (I was probably in denial...). Howeverrrrr, in the future when I stop feeling sad, I will definitely watch it again!

Overall:
Overall, I understand that with this drama there are either people who absolutely love it, or people who dislike it. I believe the reasons for people either liking or disliking this drama is because they are either drawn to the cast OR they are had too high of expectations for the cast and were let down.

Honestly, don't believe what people are saying about it either being the best or worth drama in the history of dramas, and just give it a try! Then you can have your own opinion. You never know... you could end up completely loving the drama. Or even disliking it. I definitely recommend it!
