Because This Is My First Life Cast : Lee Min Ki and Jung So-min Storyline : This is about different points of view on careers, relationships and marriage. This drama is refreshing yet witty story on its own colors.It starts with weirdness,marriage and turning into love. Lee Min Ki and Jung So Min are amazing actors and a great pair.The characters were all well developed especially the friendship between Ji Ho and her two friends. Before you accept anyone's proposal, you must be ready to accept their Past,Present ,Future and heart because they come along with him/her. This is not just a love story. It's  a life story. Each character are people we can relate to. Each episode is filled with life lessons that we can actually use. If you are in search of a drama that is relatable and relaxing to watch I highly recommend Because it's my first life. My rating is 8.5/10

Kill Me, Heal Me Cast : Ji sung and Hwang Jung-eum Storyline : Cha Do-hyun, a businessman with dissociative identity disorder, tries to regain control over his life with the help of Oh Ri-jin, a first-year psychiatric resident who treats him in  secret. If you’re a psychological thriller show lover then go for this one, you won’t regret.  Each and every episode has its own twist and turns. The layers of secrets along with his (Mr. Cha Do  Yun) damaged memories that trauma in the past caused him. They showed everything so perfectly.  Jisung is really talented at embodying around 7 different personalities. Hwang  Jung‑eum is adorable and she is such a good lead. Did I forget to mention that Jisung is literal eye-candy goddamit.  Plus, it’s one of those dramas, that isn’t just romantic. I love the suspense, that hooks you, till the end of the last episode. Also, that soundtrack!! I love it. And it always plays at the right  moment. And Shin Se Ki. I love t

What's Wrong with Secretary Kim? Cast : Park Seo-joon and Park Min-young Storyline : Problems arise when a narcissistic executive romances his secretary If you like excessive and overwhelming cute and romantic moments, this is for you. The chemistry of Min Young and Seo Joon goes off the charts, it's spot on. The storyline is great, the transitions are made excellently.  The plot revolves around a narcissistic boss whose perfect secretary suddenly decides to leave. Of course the ways which her boss uses to prevent her from quitting the job make us laugh a lot. Also when the feelings were developed between boss and secretary, the circumstances makes us laugh too.  Along with the love story of main leads, it is really fun to watch the cute love stories of the side characters. I also love Seo Joon's signature "aura" and the office outfits of Ms. Kim that she keep wearing repeatedly. A highly recommended drama. My rating is 8.8/10

His mother creates an artificial intelligence robot in his likeness that must pretend to be a real human and fool people into believing that he's real until the real son wakes up. It is so unique and has a beautiful story line. To start of with, Seo Kang Joon's acting is the main highlight of this show. He made nam shin and nam  shin 3 into 2 different characters which is an astounding achievement. Gong seung yoon's acting really complemented kang joon and their chemistry was amazing. This drama has  the best OSTs which will make you fall in love with this show even more. This show will make you laugh, fall in love with nam shin 3 and cry like crazy. The suspense was very well maintained till the end. The plot was wonderful especially when the human Nam Sin woke up and made everything more interesting. The storyline is not draggy or bored.  Seo Kang

Memories of the Alhambra Cast : Hyun Bin and Park Shin-hye Storyline : While searching for the cryptic creator of an innovative augmented reality game, an investment firm executive meets a woman who runs a hostel in Spain. The concept is so refreshing, it made me ride to a roller-coaster of emotions. It was interesting so much at first  but after watching 5-6 episodes I realised that it could have been a  masterpiece that was flawed with uncountable flashbacks in one episode that you can’t properly watch the show without running into flash back. No words to say because this drama literally  give you chills running through your body. I like the hyun bin c haracter that gave me too much goosebumps and park shin hye love for him which made me cry.  I am still unsatisfied with the ending as i haven't them ending together hugging each other,  living with each other in future. My rating is 7.5/10

Kingdom Cast ; Ju Ji-hoon and Bae Doona Storyline : The deceased king rises and a mysterious plague begins to spread; the prince must face a new breed of enemies to unveil the evil scheme and save his people. The first few episodes is on the slow side. They were in full on set up mode and were working to build up the tension for what has to come.But once the zombies come out in full force, the pacing definitely picks up with more action included. Aside from simply surviving the zombies, there is a pretty nice story in place concerning the conspiracy around the zombie king. Though 'Kingdom' is not really up to the mark, it’s still a solid drama, and there were things to enjoy. Every review talks about Kingdom being a zombie show. But what’s intriguing is that the zombie virus is joined with the Crown Prince’s desire to stay alive, despite being an outcast from his own kingdom and knowing that his stepmother is after him in order to install her own child on t

The Beauty Inside Cast : Seo Hyun-Jin and Lee Min-Ki Storyline : The love story between a top actress and an airline director who each suffers an unusual phenomenon. He suffers from prosopagnosia, while every month she transforms into someone else for a week. Being a big fan of the movie The Beauty Inside, I was not sure if this drama will be as good as the movie. Turns out that the drama is much more engaging and beautiful! I was pleasantly surprised at how well the production team and the actors were able to take the original plot and truly remade it into something entirely new, fresh, and made it wholly their own. After watching this drama I have discarded all intention of comparing it to the movie because they are two completely different stories despite taking on the same root.  The chemistry between the lead pair is amazing and one would definitely feel good watching them. The other pair is such an eye candy!  The friendship between the three, the family bonding of

The Crowned Clown Cast : Yeo Jin-goo and Lee Se-young With the first episode itself I was hooked. The actor, Yeo Jingoo nailed it. He played two different characters and he could make a distinct difference between the king and Ha Sun, the clown.  Kim Sang-Kyung, the secretary, also deserves an award because of how marvelously he executed the dialogue and made his character so likable. All the actors did such an amazing job and the way they demonstrated the clown and secretary's relationship was extraordinary.  There were so many intense and thrilling parts of the series that is constantly entertaining. It is a great drama, too good to be missed. My rating is 9/10
