Are You Human (2018) - by the year 2018, I don't know if the Korean network channels have come to a consensus but the robot themed drama is on the rise. Out of all the robot themed dramas that was release that year, (Absolute Boyfriend, I'm Not a Robot), Are You Human is by far the best, in my opinion. Seo Kang Jun is really handsome and pulled out his role perfectly. Lee Joon Hyuk portraying Nam Shin's secretary is my favorite role, I find him handsome here, I'm so into him. I like how "KBS" this one is, it's typical and playing safe but I like how the story goes and in fairness I watch this on going. What I find disappointing is the ending.

It is not the best out there but since it is just a web drama, I find it cute and worth my time - pretty much since it is only short. This drama revolving around revenge through a note or app is not a novel concept as I have heard it in a Japanese drama but have not seen it so I can't compare. Though it revolves around revenge, I like that it is not as heavy as I thought. Also revolves around high school students so pretty much a school drama, but I am fine with it. The acting are not really good, as it is compose of new actors and actresses. Since it is a school drama, I am not a fan of the romance part, as of course I am not so convinced with "children" falling in love, but that is just me being old. LOL.

Overall, I think the drama is good to pass the time.

It has the slice of life genre that I like. It's pretty slow and maybe boring to some, but it is what it is, it talks about the life of a korean employee. It has the vibes of one episode per learning, but I didn't know if I did really learned from the drama.

The actors were familiar, most of the leads I already know of as I have seen them in other dramas. Their acting were just fine, they did deliver. The one thing that did not really convinced me is that I was not really into the food presented though it was a food drama. I was not tempted with it so I guess it was not effectively conveyed to me as a watcher.

I felt 50-50 with the drama, it's not bad but it's not good either.

The story itself just goes around in circles that I find the whole drama annoying. It's sad that it was quite fun especially at the start. This drama have the potential to really go big, but failed to maintain what it started.

I know almost all the actors in the drama, and I didn't not like their acting here compared to their other dramas especially the leads. The most disappointing acting is the second male lead. I can't feel his emotions, he is just like a talking standee.

The music/OST is nothing special to me.

Definitely will not rewatch this drama. I would still recommend this to those starting out in korean dramas.

A Man Called God (2010) - roller coaster ride with this drama because of how the character developed through time and also how the revenge plot should be. Since it is 24 episodes, it felt so long watching this (*I usually watch 16-20 episode korean dramas). I think there are a lot of fillers, the characters are also a lot, which my brain can't really handle. It has a lot of unbelievable tactics to it, as well as plot holes. I didn’t like the ending as well, I don’t think I hate the drama since I enjoyed some episodes of it. The action scenes are great, and since Song Il Gook is also the main actor, which I am very curious as an actor since I only seen him in Return of Superman. His role here is perfect for him, and though he has little lines/script, I find him really in par with his character as Choi Kang Ta/Peter Pan. The ending was disappointing for me, I still had remaining questions as to what really happened. I think it was not wrapped up beautifully.

The story has that premise that makes me interested and curious as a viewer. The first episodes were nice and also engaging in introducing the characters. I think how the story was portrayed and the mysteries that is in the story was not well executed in terms of pacing since it feels like that it was all jumbled.
I don't have anything against the cast, I think they are all brilliant. The female lead is really charming. She carried her role so well, she is a really great actress. The male lead is fine with me. The second couple, sadly did not have the chemistry that I was looking for. I watch this about 2 episodes per day and I can't remember most of the how the drama went out because it is forgettable especially at the last parts. It's just a so-so drama for me.

I think this drama is a cute storyline with a nice cast. I don't know with the acting part but I did like them. I just don't like that it is just 4 episodes though they really used up the time to show the whole storyline. It is quite childish but that is just what it is.

The male lead's character is not the usual for me since he is the guy, a new refreshing concept. I don't know anything about shogi but it feels like chess game and it did incorporate in the drama.
Sanae's character is also one of a kind. I like her. I thought they would have a love triangle going on but they did not pursue that which is good for me.
Overall an okay drama to pass the time.

Dong Yi (2010) - of course another Han Hyo Joo drama that is why I watched this one. I did like this drama honestly even if she was not the female lead, still I am happy that she is the female lead. This historical drama is one of the reasons why I started liking historical dramas. Dong Yi has a good plot and transition that I came to search what really happened in history of Korea all because of this drama. I also like Jin Hee’s portrayal as king . Even though this is a historical drama, I like the fact that the first parts of the drama is not that serious, though eventually it did get serious. I like the conflicts and I was affected with how the drama unfolded. Pretty much a recommended drama.

Creating Destiny (2010) - I did watch this drama because of the main leads because I got curious. This drama is the reason why the main leads got together in real life so I had expectations from this drama. Since the drama revolves around the family, it took me longer to embrace the drama since I don't usually like this type of drama. This drama is quite long and I would not watch it again for sure, it's too dragging for me. The storyline is also quite the typical Korean drama.

I don't have anything against the cast. I think they did pretty well with their roles.

The Man Who Can’t Get Married (2009) - I don’t know why I watched this drama but I guess this was the time that I am searching for something to watch and I read the plot and liked it.

The drama did get boring as it pass by but I also have a fun time watching this one as there are funny scenes that are well executed. The main leads in the drama are a great selection since they portrayed their roles very well. I like that there are no evil characters in the drama as well that is why it is quite an okay watch. If you want to a feel good drama that do not have frustrating evil leads, go watch this drama.

Cinderella Man (2009) - it's one of the dramas that I would have forgotten if not of this post long ago. I didn't even think about Cinderella in this drama, more likely it's like the prince and the pauper. Kwon Sang Woo being Dae San is so cute. He could really pull off this kind of character smoothly. Seeing Yoona here, probably one of her first acting is also good considering she's an idol. More of like a forgettable drama since it has that pretty average storyline with no wow factor or significant something that I would recommend. This drama tells me that trust is much better than money.

Queen Seon Duk (2009) - not my first time to watch a Korean historical drama but the impact unto me is so great that I want to watch more historical drama (because of this). I basically don’t like historical dramas, but this drama is an exception. I felt the emotions of the drama; it was fun, exciting, and heartbreaking. I think the ending is what it should be - which is usually the case for these types of dramas. I thought that I would give up halfway because of the lack of something in the story line but it keeps getting better and the cast too are getting better. This drama is awesome in many ways. Highly recommended.

You’re Beautiful (2009) - probably one of the earliest Korean dramas that I have watched overtime. This drama has that typical over the top comedy which I liked watching before (*but not a fan anymore nowadays). Hongki’s portrayal of Jeremy is my favorite since I have the second male lead syndrome in this drama. This drama has a really good cast, the actors are well picked and they suited the image of the characters portrayed. Predictable storyline and yeah totally not convinced with Shin Hye as a guy. Not one of my favorite dramas but it still is one of the reasons why I continued watching Korean dramas up until today.

I think I have watched an episode of this before but forgot about it until I just bumped into it and realized I have read some few chapters of this in manga and read the first episode back then. I think it does not have a proper english subtitiles before that is why I have not watched the next episodes.

The story itself is not new to me since I have an idea of it before having read the manga. This drama really shows how Japan made their dramas, and showing their culture especially when it comes to dating and romance. This drama if you are not prepared is really weird at first because of how they presented it but I like how they portrayed the story overall. It's pretty fast paced.

The main leads chemistry is top notch. The male lead is the greenest green flag and the female lead's character development is really good as well. I really like the female lead, I think she is so beautiful.

I also like the friendship aspect that is seen in the drama. I cried.
