An entertaining and well casted drama which never quite gave that addiction high it should have. Should have been a little funnier, a little warmer, and a bit less plot-holey.

My Rating: 7.5

In Short: A great cast which made this a very watchable show, though not as suspenseful or funny as it could have been given the great comedic potential of our leads.

Pros: Not the silliest portrayal of police work I have ever seen, and the cast definitely sold it to create a high level of cute.

Cons: Disappointingly one-dimensional villains, and some plot holes that I couldn't quite get my head around. The fun premise and great cast could have been taken better advantage of.

An engaging drama where the male lead is the perfect man, tall, handsome and extremely intelligent. And not to mention cheeky.

In Short: Epic and well directed. The lead paring oozes chemistry, and the time travelling does set rules clearly (only to slightly go haywire with the final resolution). The emotional aspect of the final resolution is perfect, though.

Pros: A wonderful lead romance. Boong do is one of my favourite characters. And the “dim-witted” heroine wasn’t really that dim-witted compared to other similar k-drama heroines. Well directed.

Cons: Deus Ex Machina, some confusing narrative during time leaping, and why did they never talk about Boong do’s dead wife?

Slightly racy, but mostly refreshing. I’m really happy to see a group of friends in a drama.

In Short: Racy for a k-drama, in an honest way. I did not much enjoy the aegyo female lead though, and hated the ending, which did nothing for the morals of the story. I feel bad for the second lead, he was cute. Had a bit of second lead syndrome in this one.

Pros: Racy in a good way, which sets it apart from other k-dramas (which are not racy at all). I also love that the main characters have friends. Real people have friends.

Cons: Still mad about the ending, which set us back to square one. Characters could have been a bit less similar to Sex and the City characters.

I really want to put Enrique in my pocket and bring him home with me. I can take him out when people need emotional bandages.

In Short: Super cute and insightful. Dragged a little towards the end, but it was all worth it for these two sweeties. I will never forget that panda hat. The rest of the neighbours were great as well.

Pros: Enrique is like the male Gu Mi Ho. Honest, adorable and always means well. The premise is great, and I do like the heroine.

Cons: The plot dragged a little towards the end, with no real conflict. Could have been 12 great episodes.

Depiction of youth and bromance at it’s very finest, this is still my emotional favourite.

In Short: A personal favourite, this drama took my heart. An honest tale about growing up, set to great music. Everything in the drama seemed well thought out, and we even got a sweet romance with a side of epic bromances.

Pros: Bromance of the epic variety, with tickle fights and everything. Deep and heartfelt, this drama really captures what being young feels like. The music was great.

Cons: The title is the only bad thing about this drama, I don’t really see the point of calling this band a flower boy band.
