Absolute Boyfriend (Taiwan) (2012) - being a fan of the manga version of this when I was still 15 years old I was really excited with the live version. When I finally get to see the live version, I’m very much happy that what your actually reading just came to life. I didn’t have a chance to see the Japanese version which is the original which is because I don’t watch Japanese dramas before (*I do now). I watch this drama because I know Jiro Wang (*from Hana Kimi Taiwan) & Ko Hyesun (*Boys Over Flowers). I really like Jiro Wang here, he really did great in portraying as a robot. I am now watching the Korean version of this and I have a hard time digesting the Korean version as of the moment (*haven’t finished) maybe because I already have a background having read the manga and having watched this. I didn’t like Ko Hyesun here, because it’s there’s too much aegyo going on but I like Jiro that’s why it keeps me going. They did great with only just 13 episodes. Pretty satisfied with this drama.

Hayate The Combat Butler (Taiwan) (2011) - I came to watch this because of Park Shin Hye basically. Of course I didn’t like the dubbed part, but I love the story of this and also the flow of the story. This is just a 13 episode drama which I like because mahuman rajud sya. I didn’t have previous knowledge, so I didn’t read the manga version and haven’t seen the anime version as well so I did think that it helped me be able to like the drama. Having no expectations with just the plot as a guide, it helped me love the drama. I like the chemistry between the main leads, and also the family part of the story which gina highlight kasagara sa Taiwanese drama is well portrayed.

it’s a Taiwanese drama with ella and jerry yan, so we were frantically happy with this. I came to love Ella because of hana kimi, and Jerry Yan is of course famous being Dao Ming Si for Meteor Garden. I remember gipasalida nis ABS sauna unya kilig kayo ko. Since di mangyud masubaybayan ang tagalog dubbed version, I downloaded and was able to watch it continuously without cuts. Both Ella & Jerry has delivered their roles effortlessly, and that’s why ni-stay jud kog tan-aw. Naa japun ang style sa Taiwanese na OA na acting, but I think that is their strength and I like that. I like this drama because ako memories watching this is that I’m laughing and smiling.

The reason because I watch this drama is because of the remake of the Korean version. We could really see the difference between the two dramas. Set by the year 2008, graphical effects isn’t that great compared to the Korean version. What I like though in this drama is that it has that comedic feels (*more likely slapstick comedy) that only Taiwanese drama could really portray. The love also of family is much greater seen in this drama. I like that I’ve seen this after the Korean version although mas tsada jud unta na first nako ni nakita. So far I have good memories while watching this so I’m quite grateful that I’ve seen this.

This drama is one of the significant dramas that I have watched. I was still a teenager back then when I first watched it in our local TV station but wasn’t able to see the full story so after many years I came to watch it again. Just like the first time I saw it I really like it. The girl is humorous and also the “the third wheel” guy of the story was really funny. But as time goes by, it’s like I was bored but I have finished it and I never thought it was the ending, As in I don’t know what expression I was while watching but I was expecting to see a different ending. The ending was not an ending for me but nevertheless I didn’t regret watching it again.

Reply 1997 (2012) - honestly, I only watched it because of Infinite’s Hoya but I didn’t regret watching it. It was one of the peculiar dramas I have seen. At first I didn’t really understand the whole situation in the drama but as I watched it per episode, I came to fully understand the situation. The story is a typical story but because it is ordinary it became extra ordinary and because of the series I came to appreciate kpop and friendship more. The last two episodes are just the best episodes and I really like how the story ends and how they put a thrilling part of it. I really like it.

Cheongdamdong Alice (2012) - I am so liking this drama. It was so romantically uplifting me and it is on top of my watched korean dramas list. At the time when I was watching this, I still have questions regarding the story because I don’t know much about Korean culture and stories in their country but I was really hooked with the drama. I really like the romance and comedy of the drama and I like each of the characters. This drama is a portrayal of like modern day Alice in Wonderland, Daddy Long Legs and Cinderella in one. I have grown my childhood with this stories and I think this is the reason why I liked this drama. Although “chaebol” is still apparent here, I liked that they portrayed it in a fun way even though there is a revenge part. I also like Park Si Hoo’s character development here, he is so cute! This drama is one of the dramas that I really like over the years.

Cheese in the Trap (2016) - I watched it because a friend of mine keep suggesting it to me which she is currently reading it as a webtoon but nevertheless it was great. I came to understand the webtoon because I watched it first before starting to read the webtoon. I really like the actors and actresses who acted the roles and I think that they suit it so much. I really like the fact that they kept the original story line and didn’t do as much changes as the story in the webtoon. If I didn’t read the webtoon I would have basically sorted this as a normal drama/typical drama but that is the charm of it. Although it tackles some parts of being a “chaebol” which is common in korean dramas, what I liked is that it focuses more of the struggles of being a college student and love of a normal student which cannot be seen in other dramas. I feel like I can remember my college days and I liked it that it speaks of the normal society and that a lot may feel that they belong, or they have a place in the story. Others may be disappointed with the ending, which I felt too after a few minutes after I watched the ending but after it, I realized that it was a good ending. I think it is done to respect the author of the webtoon (which have the basic rights to put an end to it), to let the viewers expect from it and also, I am positively waiting for season 2 which I hope would come soon.

Bride of the Century (2014) - this is one of my recommended dramas, I think it is good for beginners as well. What I like about this drama is that I don't know the female lead and I like her so much. Lee Hongki as the main male lead isn’t bad either. I think that since it revolves around romantic comedy, with fantasy genre and how they executed the romance, I was into it and I felt the chemistry of the leads. It has its own revelations that shooked my core, and I was not really expecting the twist at all, since I did not really have an expectation of the drama in the first place. I became attached as to how it would evolve. The drama turned out really well for me as a watcher, and I did rewatch this one maybe about 3 times. I’m happy with this drama.

Because This Is My First Life (2017) - Everybody knows how I like this drama, basically I posted lines of this drama before. This drama is my favorite Korean drama, period. I just love everything in this drama. The lines are awesome and hey I just love how the romance of the main characters developed. I like that there are basically 3 stories in one drama because it doesn’t focus on a romance of 1 couple but 3 couples with different situations. It’s just fun and heartwarming. I like that the script was well portrayed by the actors in a fun way. It was both an educational and hilarious drama for me. I kept repeating the scenes which I like in this drama, like my 6th time watching it today. Hahahaha. Favorite scene includes the conversation between Se Hee and Ji Ho’s mom before the wedding. I don’t think I could ever get enough of this drama. To more dramas like this!

Gentleman’s Dignity (2012) - what made this drama solid is the characters. What do you expect with veteran actors but the best, that is why I could really see the subpar acting skills of the young cast, but they are not bad. The characters are really good to the point where it was easy to get irritated, to laugh, cry along with them. Each and every actor brought their characters to life in style and color. The story is beautifully written, the pacing is great in the drama and how it unfolded, the characters are well written that I really respect that particular age group presented in the drama. The drama is well adjusted to it's romance, comedy as well as life in general that something seems relatable to them. The drama is easy to love. To more dramas like this.

I really liked this drama, no doubt. Since it was shown on our local television network GMA before, I was not into it because of the dubbing. I did watch this one after a year from the release date since I watched The Master's Sun first before this. Gong Hyojin really chose a role or character that suits her since her acting in this drama is great. This drama is quite the basic, especially if a beginner in the Korean drama world. This drama made me happy and excitement especially in the romance parts of the drama. Both the main leads are not your typical handsome beautiful pair but it does not matter for me since they are both so good in their respective roles. It was a total hit in Korean, which I think is pretty obvious since it's a great drama.
