My impression of "My Annoying Brother" is that its a great family type of movie, at least in my opinion...
I expected a sad story about how Du Yeong(D.O Kyungsoo)becomes blind and deals with his brother Ko Doo Shik(Jo Jung Suk)who goes out of prison(i remind you,a SAD story(its worse XD)). Well...it was actually really different from what i imagined. First the swearing is a lot, i dont know if Korea sees this as a family movie, considering they blur out knives and guns...And i like how they delivered the story! There was Comedy, swearing, family drama, sadness and tragedy(duh!what can you expect from the peson who made it)brotherly bonding and love, i'm glad the movie is not another sad tragedy movie hit ;) , which i expected from the person who made it(well....proved my expectations kinda....). The reason im giving the story 9.5 is because i feel something was missing, just a little in the beginning. Im still in shock from the ending, i did not expect it at all. So im not gonna give you a spoiler, watch it and see if your gonna be just as shocked.
The acting was great. The bromance made me scream, cry and laugh. It was funny to see the swearing which is really really a lot more than in any drama you have ever seen. Jo Jung Suk is one of my favorite actors because of this movie(in my top 3). His acting is out of this world, i did not doubt his acting for a second. Next lead D.O Kyungsoo: I was worried about D.O because, since "I Remember You" i havent seen him in a lot of dramas or movies. Gladly there was nothing to worry about,he is just as good as always. Lets hope we can see him in more dramas and movies.
Next: Park Shin Hye(Lee Soo Hyeon) was a big suprise for me when i found out about the cast. Her acting was great i'm so glad she was in this movie i cant imagine another female in this role (that's not an A list actress) to grab my attention. Otherwise the role would be very simple, bland and waste of screen time. She delivered the role of caring for Du Yeong so well, that felt it! I dont know why i expected romance between her and the brothers. I shiped her and Du Yeong so hard, but i have a feeling, that if it was a romance movie she would go to Ko Doo Shik and Du Yeong would be the sad second lead who is blind.... so maybe its not good to have romance in this movie after all but just cute, lovely-dovey bromance. The acting is a 10, best cast ever!
Now to the topic about the music in the drama. Its the only thing that didn't stick out enough to
impress me. I dont get it they had D.O Kyungsoo of EXO and Jo Jong Suk(they sang one song at the ending which was good) who can both sing couldnt they make them sing the songs or at least give the signers better songs! They werent bad dont get me wrong but they were not on the same level as the story,acting and visual of the cast and scenery. That's why im giving it 8.5.
As a rewatch value i would soo watch it again. Yes, yes and yes. I only wish i could watch it with my family but they don't even understand english. Thankfully i can watch it with my sister because its a great family movie that plays with your emotions. Even if there are a little shirtless scenes XD. 9.5
Overall its a great movie it had comedy it wasn't all sad like i expected it to be.(Thou from the discription is missing a few generes besides those "Comedy, Drama, Family, Life". Well what happens in the movie can be summed up in genre ''Life'' i guess.)The relationship between the brothers really made my legs jelly. I really liked it! Even if i gave the music 7.5 im still giving it a 10 for overall impression because the other movies that could hold my attention that long without me spacing off are only Train to Busan, Miracle in Cell No. 7 and Werewolf Boy. And as i said in the beginning SAD....prepare food and prepare a place where you can blow your nose and hang your face to dry after the movie...my face is still drying from all the tears....

The most overrated drama ... (pls read the whole review)
The female lead made me cringe. there were moments that had to make her look mature but failed... The writers probably wanted her seem like strong person- bullied and neglected by a lot of people, but even with such a hard life she keeps being super kind and joyfull, tries her best in school and ect... ok, that is good... but the writer forgot about her behavior. They trully over did it. She acted like a 8 year old girl, she way too cozy in a strangers house . I dont know if the actress (she is good) is in the wrong or the writers. I really tried to force myself to watch this till the very end ... Maybe the drama should have been about the grim reaper, cause I always saw the goblin more as a father figure to the female lead. Its seems creepy and she doesnt help with acting kind of spoiled sometimes. The goblin legit acted like a creep sometime tho, how is that sweet or romantic? I hope that those that liked the drama wont feel bad if they read this~ XD
I just wanna add, that I have seen similar type of "relationship" in real life to the one in the drama. Thats why maybe I am a little triggered. He legit can get registered as an offender (done something or not), cause she is a minor in the start. So ya, think about that and other unwise things Eun Tak did though the drama. Then you will understand maybe why I kind of dislike it :(

Great drama! Now let's start with the review!
The story - The plot was great and this drama was a great idea! But i have to be honest, that the writer and the director of this drama failed! I think everyone else did their job perfectly. The story itself is very good and i loved it ,but it was going more slowly than i expected ,so when the drama ended i was like "Wait it ended?". The story was more focused on the romance than anyting else which i didn't like. I was more interested in the movie making process.
Acting/Cast - The cast was a 10/10, some of the actors that appreared helped this drama becoming a succsess and not flopping. The main leads were perfect, and so were all the other actors. D.O was the reason i watched this drama because i was interested to see how he will do in a comedy-romance and i'm glad he did well it was funny to see him funny for once XD! I was suprised to see Lee Jong Suk's family in "W" being in this drama i recognized them when i saw who was playing the father lol!
Music- Was it just me or the music for this drama was so calming. I really liked the music but when i listened to it, i couldnt help but ask myself why didnt they make D.O sing some good songs for this drama, were they that short on money that they cant pay a good songwriter. If this drama really is for some kind of commercial for phones i can understand why they didnt invest as much as for a normal drama. So if that's true they did great...
Rewatch Value - I would watch it again of course! Why not! Considering soon i'm gonna be a university student - 8hours a day watching k drama's, like i do now?...impossible... so this drama is perfect for college or university students who cant afford to watch even 1 episode of k drama a day.
I strongly recommend this drama, i know i will watch it again.
Overall- This kind of plot is not for a short web drama. If it was 20 episodes the drama could have been better. But i liked it anyway. Its perfect for people who dont have the time to watch the 60 minute long episodes of regular drama's. I really hope the cast can act together again in some other drama because the chemistry and acting was great! If you are thinking of watching, it you should, because for a short drama its great!!!

Guys watch this drama!!

It is good you can really get into and the actors they were great. Job well done!!
Wish I could say the some for the writers... It started soo great but they ploped it a "little". The plot of this drama is amazing if they make a season 2 I would watch it because I was left with a mehh... Lee Joon did a great job and others too! If you are into the cute Kdramas you wont be that hyped as you are normaly. I'm not saying you wont like it... Know its not romance! Its ACTION!!
You won't be sorry, go watch it. There are as I said mehhs in it but the plot is good and the actors are great. They f* up a little if you ask me XD... But you wont be pissed about it... more "ahhhh"... It is just that they could do a lot better :(

I'm normaly very critical and I have the urge to point out tons of problems in dramas. But this time I am very impressed. The story is great. I always felt satisfied after every episode and could not stop watching it. Each character was very different and complex, they always kept me hanging. You could never be sure were the story would go. What the characters were gonna do. This is a drama anyone can find interesting. The suspense is really strong. It reached the top of my list very fast
The whole cast did great. I know its not gonna be a surprise to say that Ji Sung did an amazing job with this role. But I still have to note that his acting really got to me, I legit tried to fight back my tears, but is was all in vain. ( they still got out )
Normaly I don't comment about the music, but I replayed the music a lot and I even made a playlist soo... its dope.
I can definitely see myself rewatching it very soon it was worth my time. It was a very enjoyable emotional rollercoaster, which i highly recommend~

Story - great idea for a story but its so messy...the ending was.... like someting that a 12 year old would write to make the ending more "realistic and mature" but ends up writing pure fail of a fanfiction
Acting/Cast - well the cast is pretty simple...the acting is not so good, it made things seem even more cheesy than it already was...
Music- the only thing in this drama that can be given an A+
Rewatch Value - my instinct tells me to give it a 5 or lower but no drama i have watched has made me so mad to give it less than 5 so 5 for this drama i would watch it after 10 years to remind myself of my teen years and how i have watched dramas or now if my internet stops and im dead bored and have no TV
Overall- 6.0 i still want to give it less but no korean drama deserves a bad rating considering what is aring in my country -_-

At first I didn't expect much...

I thought and felt like this was going to be a very depressing story full of politics or the drama will go down the path of super cheesy comedy/romance drama just to get more views and better ratings. While also being about one of the darkest times. But I was pleasently supraised. I could tell with each episode as the story progressed that it was written with passion and love. The drama unfolds slowly in the start but it really quickens its pace after 2-3 ep. I knew I was watching a drama but I also felt like I was reading book ... Its like a story unfolded withing a story... perfect balance between the past and present. It has it all... The word maybe perfect for this drama is heartwarming.
I have great respect for the writers,cast and crew. The music was great, the clothes, sets and everything was truely impressive. I'm sure or at least I hope... that this drama will win an award this year.
Unlike many drama this one I would love to rewatch a hundred time and more... It doesn't focus on romance as much as the sole feelings of the characters( all of them) towards eachother. I even cried a couple of times while watching. A big plus is that the characters are smart, they didn't give me headaches. The drama has so many good quotes I wrote them in a small note book and I plan to rewatch it soom maybe with hot chocolate in my hand during a rainy/snowy day... but since its summer I will settle with ice tea in my basement :-'(.

I recommend this drama.

I really liked the whole idea of the story, the acting and cast was great. I gave it a 10, because you have to watch it :( Lets get to the point, the ending(last 5 min) ruind it for most people( for real it was the only... big... problem in this drama), because it was confusing. Its noticeble that they probably had problems in the last filming- it looks like scenes that show what happend were cut off- and so the ending became confusing. Because of that I recommend not to watch the last episode at least the last 5 min... still there a LOT reasons to watch this drama:
1. Quality of filming and sets
A LOT of work was put into this drama... Its sad how a lot of people rate it low. As someone who loves creative work, this gets me a little T.T. From their clothes to the sets- everythings was carefully planed. It really deserves to be praised, can some of you even imagine... wait you can see in the special episode what conditions the actors and staff had to work in.
2. Cast/Acting
The cast is amazing, its full of great actors :) !!! If you pay attention some times you can notice things- like you can see in the last episode how Ji Ah is holding her wrist( if you watch you will know), you know things like that. For real you can watch this drama just for the cast.
3. The story
Its REALLY interesting. Normaly if watch Kdramas you listen to Kpop too, right? The drama, might give a better view of some things in the ent.industry, its not all rainbows, smiles and abs. It shows how politics handle and view the public. It has all of it media, politics, law, crime, drama, a LOT of mystery, some silly moments too( which really get to you T.T).
Dont let others stop you from watching it, because overall is GREAT only the last 3-4 min were what got the rating down :(

Aww man....just finnished this drama. Someone call the doctor, i think i *OVERDOSE*
First let me start with the story - as a girl,i was jumping in my seat the entire time =). The story has perfect timing and its not too slow or too fast. This drama for 3 episodes(thats how i watched it) can be considered a masterpiece and i loved every minute of it. The story. the cast and THE *PLOTTWIST*!

Acting/Cast - First let me start with the star of this drama Ji Woo(Byul) she did so well in this drama * claps* considering she is playing a main lead for the first time she did 6/6 and i didnt hate her character. I have seen her only in the movie Cart and the drama You're All Surrounded so i know she has big potential! I cant wait to see her in another drama as a main lead because she was the main main here for me! (Cant believe she is only 1 year older than me 0_0)....
Next: Kim Jun Myeon(Suho) did really well and the character he played is.... i wish i could find myself a man like him *sobs*. His acting was good and i hope he does just as good in his next upcoming drama I eat bread.
Next: Shin Hyun Soo was a full of suprises in this drama and the twist damm... I have seen him in Remember - War of the son and i hope that he gets the main role one day, now that he has 2 dramas that did well! Lets cheer him on!
Lets include Na Hae Ryung she did really well as well. All off the cast can be described as full of potential and i hope they do well in the future because they did 1000/1000 in this drama!

Music - *cries* Really good now because of this drama, i will cry everytime i hear Suho....i mean Kim Jun Myeon sining. So good 10/10. All the leads are so talented!!!

Rewatch value - YES! I will watch it again, once my chest pain is gone, i will watch it all the way to episode 2 (you know...) Watch it if you havent already!

Overall- This drama touched my soul, my heart, my ears,my brain even my appendix! Because they all have feelings now 0_0 !!! Some people have watched this like a 10 minute episode drama with 21 episodes but i waited for all of them to be out like a 3 episode drama and i recommend you watch it like that. You will not regret it, i don't... maan i hope i find myself a man so cute as Woo Joo...

One of my first drama's (my 1,2,3 or 4 not sure) and i can tell you i have rewached it 20 times already. The story - I loved it, you must have great imagination to think of something like this. Some people had some preblems with the "age" but that's the story and its better that way and it wouldn't be the same without it!
The acting was impressive. Lee Jong Suk stole my heart! The first drama i have seen with him and for me it's his best drama even now at the end of 2016 it is still his best. The female lead is a great actress i love her, i love them both XD
The music 10/10 the OST is now 3 years later still in my head...lol.....
Rewatch Value- no comment,i have watched it more than 20 times... young or old just watch it if you are 28, 30,40,50,60,100 or more and think you are too old for K-dramas you are not... WATCH IT, YOU WONT REGRET IT!

Ahh...I was so exited to write a review once this dama comes out but after watching it not anymore. First let me tell you that when the intro/opening for this drama started i thought i was watching a chinese drama not a korean one because it was so long.
About the story, what can i say?! It was really confusing and i was wondering what was happening in the drama until i came around episode two and four that i could understand what was happening much better than before lol. But still, until the end this drama was really confusing. The story is not really original and i had a feeling that i had seen dramas or other shows with a really similar story lol. Even if it wasnt original it had great potential and that's the reason i really liked it and kept watching it. But i'm gonna be honest,that i think the writer failed to make the story original and it ended as just another drama of the 1M SK dramas airing every year that nobody is gonna remember.
The acting and the cast was okay but i really had high expectations for L which he covered around 50%.I dont understand why he has to play a musician for a 3rd and soon 4th time. When i was watching this drama his acting as a sweet guy reminded me when he was playing a 3minute boyfriend on SNL Korea and his acting was 90% the same...Maybe he is tired of this type of role. Who knows?! - p.s i'm sure he is, but we will see in his next drama). And let me tell you he was 75% of the reason i even started watching this drama. I hope that one day he gets a normal role as a student or maybe a killer or a doctor just something that's not close to a singer.
As for the main female Yoon So Hee. Her acting was also okay, just fine but i felt nothing and it's not really her fault but the writer who didn't do his job right. I know her from the EXO video that's a drama version of their song growl and maybe you know her from other dramas and i think she has potential.
I think even the leads were confused at some point about how they should act because of the story and i don't blame them. The supporting actors on the other hand were 10/10 because they didn't have to be confused by the complicated time stuff and that's the reasons i'm giving the acting 7.5.
Now to the music! This drama has one of the best songs a drama could have and honestly my ears felt blessed when L started signing. I think they invested so much into the music that they forgot everyting else but maybe that's for the better because now i can give them a good rating. Thank you for doing atleast this right. But if your are considering watching this drama let me warn you that there is a lot of music i honestly remember more music scenes than any of the other... just so you know if a lot of music is not your cup of tea. I myslef think they over did it with the music in a few scenes that's why i'm giving it 9.5 not 10 but maybe i will change my mind in the future and change it who knows.
As a rewatch value its good enough to rewatch it if you have nothing else to do. I would watch it again when some time passes and i dont have dramas to watch(impossible).
So should you watch it?Yes! After all you may like it more than i did and if you are a fan of L and INFINITE go ahead and watch it don't hesitate. This drama reminds me when L playd an idol in My lovely girl with Kristal of F(X) and Shut Up: Flower Boy Band which were all better than this drama and i recommend you to watch them too. Because of this i think L must be tired of playing a signer all the time atleast that's how it looks to me because his acting is not as good as it was in those two dramas. Let's wish him good luck with his next drama! Overall its a good drama with good cast but i think it could have been better if they had put some more effort into making it original. Go watch this drama yourself and see if you agree with me because my opinion may be diffirent from yours.

The drama "Madame Antoine" is not bad... its pretty good. :)

Soo... when I started it I had nothing else to watch (like most of you). After the first episode you start to get into the drama. The more you get into the drama the more you like it.
At first I didn't like the actors when I found it because... they are older than most actors I've watched, but they are pros. Acting was great and the plot is original. Great idea, but sometimes it was slow at other times fast. It is watchable and super funny!!! I was like Lol!! WTF??? It is funny, so watch it.
When I finished it I learned something from it... As someone with problems, that you can see in this drama... I can relate a little to it and the story... 99% of you will relate with something in it. The drama is not the best of the best, but is good and you can watch it without feeling like you lost your time. I finished it in 2-4 day... I think but not more... As I said its good, but not like super good. The funny stuff and some of the plot saved it for me. It depend on the person watching it. If you are older you will like it more, it deals with some grown up shit, what I'm saying is its not all funny it can be sad, because the main leads haven't had it easy. They learn to deal with stuff from their past... I found it usefull, if you are not old learn from the mains amd you will get to understande how a grown up thinks. The world is not about you, sometimes you have to let go and move on.

The drama Loved it! Warning to people with the second leads syndrome!!!
I rewatch it sometmes AND still have a major second lead syndrome...sadly, but that bitter and sweet feeling makes me watch it.
The music was the best part of the drama to be honest. You can tell they are all gifted...
The acting was okay but still if story was better maybe i would have liked the main lead and the story did not help my second lead problem. If you are a fan of the Rain,L or Krystal go ahead and watch it!
If you think you'r out of good drama's to watch go ahead and see it :) even if you get the second lead thingy you will keep watching...even if you have to skip. The music, the cast and all the bitter sweet feelings i got are the reason i gave the drama a good rating

I can't believe I forgot about this drama...
Overall its great! Its really satisfying... I give the story/plot 8.5 ,because I wish that they had gone more into some of the stories in the drama. It had a lot of twist, my brain was working for once when watching a drama( I haven't seen so many twist since I Gap Dong). I had a lot of ,,Bad guys" drama flashbacks too ( the feel T.T), if you liked those dramas you will most probably like this one too.
The cast and acting was amazing 10/10!!! The music really fits the drama, I wanted to sing a long but I don't know korean.
Watch the drama, there is something satisfying about it (probably the many twists)!. After the second episode is when it really might get some people, if they are more into normal kdramas.

I just rewatched it again, after some time passed and decided to give it a higher score. I dont know why I like it better the second time. :)
