Honestly this drama was great, just plain fantastic. I watched this because I heard Jung Kyung Ho was in it, but stayed because after the first episode it just made me want to watch it some more.

I didn't think I'd be able to finish all 20 episodes and even thought about dropping it. But each episode intrigued me and forced me to keep on watching, it's the kind of drama that makes you hooked just like that. The plot is really great and the characters are even better.

The one thing that's really unique about this drama, is that it keeps you guessing. From the first episode all the way to the last, you never know what's going to happen next. You don't know who the good guy is or who the bad guy is. You don't know if you're rooting for the wrong team or the right one.

And it has everything a thriller needs; from violence to drugs to gorgeous guys in suits (and gorgeous guys out of suits kekeke..). It's a drama worth watching and if you haven't watched it yet, what are you waiting for?!

I've been wanting to watch this drama for a while now, and I've kept putting it on hold ever since I saw it on Netflix a while back. Then I started watching missing you and fell in love with yoo seung ho and voila! Here I am, telling you how cute of a drama this is!
I really liked it, it's a great drama if you're a newbie and want to start watching kdramas. It tells the story of love really great and shows the fighting spirit that only one could see in a protagonist of a kdrama. Seung Ho's an amazing actor, making me just die at the sight of him. The guy from flower boy next door is there too, but I think he serves a much bigger role in this drama.
Like I said before it's a great drama. There are just a few things you have to bear with because it does get repetitive at times. But it never failed to make me want to keep watching. (i spent my whole last two days of spring break watching all 16 eps if that helps)

The cast was awesome. Seung ho was just beautiful, what else could i say? Park Eun bin who plays Yi Seul (the protagonist's love interest) is such a cute girl, and her character's personality is wonderful as well. And Lee hyun jin was just an adorable "rival" to seungho's character.

The music was good too, I still can't get the tune of the ost out of my head. It's gotten so bad that even my 3 yr old sister knows it ah.

Normally I don't rewatch dramas except for Boys over Flowers and Full House --only because those were my first two dramas and ya -- but this drama is definitely one I would want to rewatch.

It's not the perfect drama and I do have to admit that it aggravated me at times and certain episodes. But it's a great one if you're into the "nice guy doesn't have to finish last" sort of plot. (Which I am, so maybe that's why I really liked it) So I recommend it and wish all those who will watch it the best.

So this drama I started to watch mainly cos of ChunHee (I was going through a little bit of a spree after watching old Family Outing episodes).

The whole theme of a dating agency that helps people come together was a very cute idea to me. I saw a lot of potential for this drama and I would be lying if I said it wasn't cute cos it very much was. I enjoyed every client that they went through and how they helped them with their romantic problems. But there were a lot of questioning aspects to this drama. Things that just didn't really make sense.

The cast I thought was a little strange. I had recently finished watching A Gentlemen's Dignity before I watched this and thought it was very strange that Lee Jong Hyuk was playing the main lead and Sooyoung was playing the main girl. I couldn't help thinking that their age difference was probably a little too much. Even Chunhee and Sooyoung's age difference was pretty big. No matter how much I looked at it, Sooyoung just looked like a teenager (yes I know she was 20 something at the time) coming in between a bunch of adults. I do wish they had a cast that had a balance in age, whether they found a lead girl around the ages of Chunhee and Jonghyuk or a younger cast to suit Sooyoung, it would've given the drama an even more refreshing sense to it. Hong Jonghyun made me fall in love with him in this drama to be quite honest with you.

The acting was good, Chunhee and Jonghyuk played their roles very well. Sooyoung surprised me the most probably, I was unaware that she had gone into the acting world and her acting in this drama was a pleasant surprise for me. She did a very good job for having the pressures of being a main character. I'd definitely be excited to see her in more dramas or movies just to see how much her acting can improve.
Jong Hyun's character was pretty stoic which is understandable since he had just started getting into the acting world as well. I enjoyed his storyline, it was a nice thing to watch and take my mind off of the main themes going on.

The music was pretty good. I find no complaints in that part. It suited the drama pretty well.

Unfortunately I don't think I'd rewatch it. It has a very cute concept to it which I do enjoy, I'm a sucker for those things. However, there were just some things that bothered me too much for me to rewatch.

Let me tell you ONE thing about this drama.
It is absolutely worth the watch.

I've heard about this drama numerous of times on tumblr and from the popularity it had in Korea but I never bothered to watch it when it aired. I finally sat down and found some free time to watch it and I finished the entire 16 episodes in a day and half, which is an all-time record for me. Although, I probably would've finished it in one day if I had the ability to, unfortunately I am still human.

I was very skeptical about this drama when I first heard about it because I'm not one that is too into war-themed dramas, I prefer more modern day/city-like/relateable dramas. But I managed to watch it and it exceeded my expectations which I am extremely glad it did.

The story was great. It really gives you a look into the world of those who a) work to protect their countries and b) work to protect those that are in need. This was a great drama that mixed action and medicine all into one, which I find that most medical dramas lack: a sense of excitement, which is what DOTS provided throughout all 16 episodes. With the ending of each episode, I just kept wanting more and more. This drama has such a way to tug at your heart and the inner do-gooder inside of everyone. A+++++

The cast is absolutely phenomenal, what with Song Joong-ki and Song Hye Kyo as your leads, what more could you want? The characters were characters you also fell in love with too. Every character had a story and it just made you seem even more connected to them. SHK was a wonder actress as usual, she looks just as she did back in her Full House days and played the role of a doctor very well indeed. Joong-ki was what really surprised me though. All of the roles I've seen him in he played a sort of boyish character, one that was innocent and had a flowerboy like aura to him. It's very much a different experience to see him play a soldier, one who's personality is completely the opposite of the other roles he's had. In a way he seemed more like a man through this drama rather than the young boy I've always seen him as. I guess his time in the military before this drama was also another supporting factor but still, it's a wonderful change.

The music to this drama was wonderful and I'd be lying if I said I didn't subscribe to a DOTS playlist I found on Spotify of all the songs in the drama lolol.

Overall I would definitely rewatch it, if I ever found the time to. And this is a drama I would recommend to anybody.

I loved Age of Youth! It's such a cute drama and have an even cuter cast and setting. I was really excited to watch it after seeing some trailers online but it lived up to my expectations and I was hooked from episode 1!

Each of the five girls in this show has a certain quality to them that makes them unique in their own way. You can automatically find a quality of yourself in each girl and may even relate to a specific girl more than the others because I know I did (I'm pretty sure I'm an irl version of Senior Song). The struggles that these five girls face everyday is so very much relatable especially if you're a university student yourself. If you have any idea what it's like to have a roommate or roommates/housemates then every problem that they face with each other will make you go "I feel you !". From problems like friends borrowing clothes to boyfriend drama to part-time jobs, this drama easily peeks into the lives of the youth of today. But what makes this drama even better is the bond that these girls have with each other, how even though they were strangers at some point with extremely different personalities, they've come together and became this unbreakable bond that'll remind you of you and your own friends.

The cast is great I think each girl represents their own personalities very well and will come to remind you of certain people in your lives. The stories associated with each character is very unique yet relatable to stories in real life.

I really like the music to this drama mainly cos I'm sucker for indie. It's very light and bubbly which goes along well with the vibe of the drama . As for rewatching, this may be a drama I'd rewatch in the future. Honestly speaking, 12 episodes was not enough for me I flew threw each episode so quickly I was so shocked when I realized I was on episode 10 already! I do wish they focused on some questions I still had at the end of the show that were left pretty unanswered and focused on some of the characters more and their backgrounds, which is another reason why I'd want an extension on this drama. But overall, it was worth every episode.
