I never expected that I would come to love this drama this much. Since I don't watch this genre often I didn't want to watch this drama for 3 years.
But I just finished all three seasons within 3 days.

It was really inspiring and enjoying to watch how the teacher, Nakama Yukie portrayed, was able to change the student's view on school, live and teachers. I noticed that teachers like her are quite rare (well I don't have one) and I guess that's also a reason to watch this drama because you'll get hope and you'll have your lessons for your live through this drama.

I really liked the chemistry between Nakama Yukie and Matsumoto Jun who portrayed Sawada Shin and I guess I'm not the only one who would have liked it if there was more.

The main teachers and students each got their own episodes in which we get to know more about their background and how they gradually change to the better.
I also liked the close relationship between the main 5 students (including Sawada Shin) and the teacher.

All in one, it was great drama where you learn about the importance of friendship, family and school (If you didn't already know it).

Finally all 80 Episodes are subbed! First I never expected myself to really watch these 80 episodes because when I started the drama last year I thought it would be a typical mini-drama with around 16 eps. And I couldn't understand how a drama with this plot could actually have 80 eps.
But now I'm not regretting a single minute I invested in this drama and fully understand the length of the drama.

It's hilarious, has it's serious and romantic scenes a perfect combination.
It may have started of as something similar to Coffee Prince (korean drama) but then every character in this drama gets more interesting and has their own side story.
It isn't only about the loveline between the two main characters (or five according to this MDL page) but it also interlinks the other characters.
There are many twists which made the drama more interesting.

And let's not forget about the wonderful actors Wu Vanness, Zeng Joanne, Zhang Michael and Wang Zi who did a wonderful job.

The only negative point is the length of the drama BUT It's definitely worth watching for fans of the genre Romance-Comedy.

I've just completed it and I'm just overwhelmed. The drama starring Yoo Ah In and Kim Tae Hee started of really romantic with the love story of the two which even began in their childhood. I really liked the beginning of the drama because it was something new that the main character in a saeguk drama is a 'fashion designer'.

Then her struggle as a concubine began and I finally remembered that in the drama 'Dong Yi' Jang Ok Jung was ordered to poisen herself after having done so many bad deeds. At that time Choi Dong Yi even entered the scene arousing my hatred for the writers.

I'm glad that I didn't drop the drama as I would have missed the great ending of the drama. (JOJ writers manse! JOJ writers manse! JOJ writers manse!)

To be honest I've started this drama only because of Kim Tae Hee as I'm not really a Saeguk fan nor was I a fan of Yoo Ah In since Fashion King. But both Kim Tae Hee and Yoo Ah In excelled themselves and did a wonderful job. It's by far the best drama of them I've watched.

The music was just perfectly used in the drama. Especially in the sad scenes (Don't why I liked these the most too...)

I would definitely recommend this drama for Saeguk, Dong Yi and romance fans. It's definitely a beautiful love story.

PS: Now I can forgive Yoo Ah In for Fashion King although I know it was more the writers fault than his...

So... Room Alone ist about people (students) who are somehow lonely. It tackles exactly 10 stories of 10 habitants of a condo.

I kind of liked it? It wasn't extremely special in some kind but it is a really good lakorn in it's genre. These days the theme internet gets more and more attention in movies, series and books. And this lakorn was about it. Facebook, Instagram, Line and Tinder (!) were the means to get to know each other to communicate with each other. You could see yourself in the characters.

They were ordinary stories every could relate to one of them or more and the actors did a good job, as everything seemed really natural, they were just some students who felt lonely in this society.

The music was good for those pats that I listened to them, it didn't disturb the flow or was annoying (like in some tw & k-dramas).

You should watch it if you want more GMM, youth dramas, light fluffy dramas :D

I started this drama because of... Well, I guess most of us did - KARA's Gyuri and MBLAQ's Thunder/Cheondung.

As expected it was a typical idol drama which promotes the idols. The story was refreshing. It was my first time watching a drama about nail arts mixed with gumiho elements. Customers with problems go into this nail shop and get cured/help by/from the nice nail artists and slowly we get to know more about the artists - I emphasize slowly. The drama is mainly a mixture of the story of the drama and the story of the story in the drama (the main lead is a writer).

About the music - I'm not sure I've only heard one song and that one was good. Maybe I overheard the instrumentals or I focused too much on the actions.

After the first 5 - 6 episodes I thought that I was going to regret watching this because nothing happened! I mean you just didn't know anything about the nail shop artists, yes they helped persons, the story of the writer was going on and so but you were just like - oh, it's already episode 6? I don't know anything about them...

However in the second half their story started to develop and I started to like the drama and then it ended.

I would definitely recommend it to KARA/MBLAQ fans and drama watchers who think they need something totally different from your typical romance, gumiho drama.

This drama is mainly about a detective who was once a police detective but demoted because of a case. He's a genius - like detective who was actually trained to be so genius - like. In the drama they try to solve this mysterious case while they also solve other cases.

Here's the thing the drama was quite good but not really good at the same time. It's one of those dramas where you'll say well ok I've completed it without having to push myself and I don't regret watching it but it's not something I'll keep in mind. Thus my overall rating is between fair and average.

Renbutsu Misako's and Matsuda Shoda's acting was really good and also the acting of the other actors was really good. The music as far as I listened to them was good.

The not so good aspects: It's the typical drama concept of these genre. You have a rather big case which is followed throughout the drama and then they also solve each episode a case. In this drama what disappointed me was the great final of the drama. It was rather so so compared to the exiting undercover investigations our main lead had.

The good points of this drama are Matsuda Shoda!, good detective story! well-acted drama!

It's really over?

At first this drama kind of reminded me of you're beautiful because in the first few episodes and the two main characters are the typical arrogant bad boy/idol and a cross dresser.
But then the story wasn't anything like that, there's not really a triangle love and the story mainly focuses on the TWO main characters and the group M2Junior, teamwork and dreams. This drama may have rookie actors in the supporting roles but since they were idols in the drama, and their singing/rapping skills are great, it didn't matter.

BUT yeah I now there are already lots of comments about the ending, but I got to say that again. The nding wasn't that bad... but it's unaccepable as a ending in my opinion since it's just way to open, you don't really get to know what eventually happens to the characters.

This drama was an interesting, funny drama with a good soundtrack and a cool guest appearence.

I didn't completed it yet but I just had to warn the ones who wanted to start this drama.

First I started this drama because I wanted to watch a drama about twin brothers.
But until now there hasn't been much about the twin brothers and I'm pretty sure there won't be much more except of the few scenes and well the final scene where they get busted.

The second problem I've got was Mike He. Well, I'm not really that into him as others but he is indeed a good actor. But I don't know if it's because of the bad plot or the lack of chemistry or whatever but his and the overall acting in this drama is way too cheesy and let's face it bad.

And the third problem I've got and I bet I'm not the only one if they want to make a character fat then please make it a little bit believable and not just make the female lead were a body suit and make her look like some freak. Seriously Lin Ying Zhen is a pretty, tiny and cute girl + body suit that makes only her body fat = freak with a balloon body.

Nevertheless this is a cute, dorky and funny drama that you should only watch if you watch EVERYTHING THAT IS CUTE or EVERYTHING WITH MIKE HE.
If not then do whatever you want it's not like I can forbid you watching this drama :P

This drama definitely has good actors and they did a really good job. *thumps up*
BUT the screenwriter just wrote some bulls***. (sorry)
Well first of I liked the beginning, but then the story just slowly developed into a really elongated triangle love conflict. Where the girl is going back and forth from Young Gul to Jae Hyuk. Until the end she (for me ) suddenly chooses the other one.

It's not really about fashion a lot or not at all. There were only a few sequences about fashion and everyone had to do with fashion, but that's already all it had to do with fashion.
Well maybe I'm too dumb or skipped to much but the ending was kind of confusing.
Just watched it again and it made sense but it was still one of the worst endings I ever saw.

Overall Yuri's acting was really good for a singer turned actress. And all the others were excellent too. But I wouldn't recommend this drama.

First I have to say though I only watched it once since even until now I can still remember every detail clearly. This drama was the one that brought me into my drama addiction. Because I loved it so much I even watched all the others versions and yes the korean version is the best of all. The actors were excellent and even if you were on the side of Ji hoo you still couldn't hate jun pyo because lee min ho portraited a perfect, rich boy who fell madly in love with a poor girl. And This F4 was really what F4 stands for flower boys. The places were amazing you liked it, it's not one of these dramas where you have to focuse on the actors because you only watched it because of them you could actually ENJOY it. From setting to fashion everything was perfect. And the story? it was funny, romantic, dramatic, the cinderella story.
