So basically this all started out as me wanting to have a little fun when Goong first came out and we were all feverishly following the show. What I did was steal an idea from >>Neeko<< and came up with the eppie awards! These are my reactions and opinions of what happens in shows where I present you with what I thought were the best and worst moments. And if you disagree with me...meh =P

reviews

Goong: Ah, the drama that this site is all about. There's certainly a charm about this drama that no other show has and has clearly enthralled thousands of fans around the world. However, I felt the drama dragged a bit in the middle, but it did pick back up towards the end. I attribute this to the writer's lack of experience of working on a long drama, and to that I shake my fist eternally. But it's not so terribly bad although if you read my reviews I do go off the deep end in my rants ^^; I also have a problem with the costuming from time to time (especially the royal hanbok) but the colors are so vibrant and the music is also very nice as well. This drama was also filmed movie style so you'll never see a more beautifully presented drama in your life. Joo Ji Hoon and Kim Jung Hoon aren't so bad to look at either. Also Yoon Eun-hye pleasantly surprised me with her ability to take on this role (no matter how badly it was written) and I'll forever be a YEH/JJH supporter because of it. Theed rates it: =D

Full House: This was my first ever K-drama (thanks to my friend dropping it on me like a bomb) and has been and will always be my favorite drama b/c of the special place it has in my heart for introducing me to the drama world. It's unbelievably hilarious sprinkled with bits and pieces of seriousness. The chemistry between Bi and Song Hye Kyo is just spectacular not to mention that both are great at acting. Also you'll have a hard time choosing between Kim Sung Soo and Bi. It tends to be a teensy bit draggy towards the end and the finale wasn't quite the amount of closure I wanted, but it's satisfactory. Overall you'll be quite pleased and will be forever singing "Three Bear" and shouting "Aja aja fighting!" Theed rates it: ^_^

My Girl: Although I may not be quite as much of a fangirl as most girls I've seen are, I certainly enjoyed this drama very much. The reason why I may not be a fanatic is because it's not quite so original as it's really similar to it's sister drama (made by the same writer's) Delightful Girl Choon-hyang. It's sorta like Gokusen to GTO. But that doesn't mean I hate the drama. In fact I found this drama rather enjoyable and I think I marathoned the whole thing in a couple of days when I first watched this drama. Lee Da Hae is really cute and LDW is so handsome you won't be able to pry you eyes away from him. And of course the infamous Lee Junki stars in this as well and that obviously means 1 million fangirls hehehe. Just like how Full House has "Aja aja fighting!" My Girl has it's own "bbyasha!" that you might be spontaneously screaming randomly throughout your life. Theed rates it: ^_^

Fantasy Couple: If any of you people have seen Delightful Girl Choon-hyang or My Girl, you'll definitely love Fantasy Couple! This is the third drama written by the Hong sisters and it was an absolute delight to watch. I think I'd actually rate this higher than My Girl *ducks from stoning by My Girl fans* because, while the Hong sisters do reuse typical K-drama elements (as every k-drama writer does) they weren't so blatantly obvious about the things they repeated as with My Girl to Choon-hyang. Also, this was the first comedic k-drama that was _truly_ comedic all the way through and consistenly up until the last two episodes where they were forced to make things a little more serious. Also, if you're a big fan of family moments this show is right up your ally with tons of sweet moments that'll make your heart warm. And let's not forget the deliciousness that is Oh Ji Ho, there's no way you'll leave this drama and not become a fangirl (dunno how that'd work out if you're a guy =p). Also Han Ye Seul was perfectly cast as the sassy and perfectly b*tchy Jo Anna/Na Sang-shil. Perfect 5 stars all around. And as with typical Hong sister fare, you'll leave having "Ggorahjihagoneun" engraved into your brain. Theed rates it: v^_^v

Delightful Girl Choon-hyang: This is one of the top dramas in my list of favorite dramas. It's so funny, but it does not lose at all in the serious department when it needs to be. You'll love Jae Hee in his role of Mong-ryong and Han Chae Young is just brilliant as Choon-hyang. I just loved their story and you just can't help yourself from watching one episode after another. My favorite part of this drama is the Chosun Dynasty parodies at the end of every episode. They also parody a lot of KBS's popular dramas in episode 15 so look out for that! Definitely a must see. Theed rates it: v(^_^)v

Coffee Prince's First Shop: For those of you who don't mind a slow paced drama and aren't looking for slapstick comedy this is the drama for you. Coffee Prince has it's comedic moments, but the show's aim is not to be a romantic comedy but a romance. Although this drama is a little slow, it's not a bad thing. The speed makes it so that you absorb every bit of the show, and in fact soemtimes you don't even notice the pace at all because you are just experiencing what the characters are experiencing their moments at a human speed. This drama also has an ensemble cast that has an awesome dynamic and does not drag down the story in a way that most other mini-series fail to do. And of course Gong Yoo and Yoo Eun-hye have an awesome chemistry like none I've seen before. It was enough to actually turn me into a Gong Yoo/YEH shipper rather than a JJH/YEH shipper, and I was even skeptical of Gong Yoo in the first place. Overall I think most of you would enjoy this, it's a nice change of pace and is shown beautifully on screen. Don't miss out. Theed rates it: =^-^=

Sweet18: The second k-drama I watched when I first started a couple of years ago, and one of the most memorable. I don't why, but this drama seems to be overlooked and quite underated by most fans, which means this drama is under the radar of a lot of k-drama fans and they just don't know what they're missing. Some may balk at the idea of a girl getting married straight out of high school to a guy 10 years older than her, but I think that's the point of the drama. To show that love doesn't really depend on age. Also this is one of _the_ cutest dramas ever. And if any of you are like me, you will really love the fact that these two are a couple in real life! Oh rather...used to be a real life couple.... >(((( Theed rates it: v^-^v

Witch Yoo-hee: Well, I finished watching this series and to be honest I don't know if I wanna put in the effort to finish the rest of the reviews. It certainly was cute enough, but I think I agree with a lot of people that the ending was subpar. Something was lacking overall in this show, and the fact that they had three male leads probably added to overkill. With that being said I didn't hate this drama, and if I ever have time on my hands when I finish doing all of my projects I just might come back and finish working on this one since I would really hate to just leave this project as it is. So for now, consider Witch Yoo Hee reviews to be on hiatus. Theed rates it: :D
