This was a show that I have wanted to watch for a very long time, and now that I watched it I finished it within two days. Why? Because it was that good.

The uniqueness of the ghost concept is such a strong story line that makes this drama so great. I am a person who gets scared very easily, so the first two episodes made me uncomfortable at times because of the horror aspect, but because the story associated with these scary moments was so compelling I tried my hardest to get over these fears and enjoy it. Lucky enough these scary moments only last for the first couple episodes anyway. I even found myself wanting these scary moments back throughout the episodes.

The cast of this drama was thought out perfectly. I didn't find myself disliking any of the actors and how they portrayed their role. It is very hard to love a character who works against the story line or interferes, but I enjoyed everyone's story. For example Joo Sung Ran, Joong Won's aunts story line wasn't needed in this drama and I didn't feel it had such an important role in the main story line. BUT the addition of her story was so sweet and added such a good feeling to this drama. I think deciding to add things like this made the success of this drama.

The relationship between Joo Goon and Tae Yang was really unique. I loved the complicated journey their relationship took and how they made their happiness arrive after the right amount of suffering and justification. You can often find that couples in dramas come together in the end just for the sake of love and their reasoning for getting together isn't explained properly or their previous problems were not fixed. But in this drama, although their words sometimes confused me, I found that all of their problems were solved and I felt comfortable with their return to each other.

Overall this drama gets all of the recognition it deserves. It is a must see for anyone who enjoys romance, drama and it even adds in aspects for horror/supernatural lovers. Don't let this drama slip through your fingers and watch it!!!!

First off, I would recommend this drama to anyone who loves to laugh. This drama has such a variety of personalities that are always causing trouble and interesting relationships. I found it very funny and interesting. However I feel as if there was a lot of improvements that could be made.

The story line was I think the thing that let it down the most. Outside of the relationship story line, there wasn't a strong enough story line to keep the drama moving, with climaxes and such. I wish they focused on the movie making more, as at times there were episodes with little to nothing about the movie.

However the relationship between Soo Jin and Myeong Soo was a very sweet one. I loved how natural they made it feel. Some dramas can make relationships seem too perfect and easy going. This drama took advantages of relationship struggles and journeys and it really worked in their favor. For their relationship alone I recommend this drama.

Also The 3 ex-girlfriends was such an interesting plot. I really liked the variety of personalities. I think they got actresses that fit the characters of a fox, lion and cat very well. I especially enjoyed Ra Ra. I think she played the role perfectly and I enjoyed how they made her role feel deeper with the love story and the struggles of trying to make it as an actress.

There were a couple of plot holes, such as we never found out about the story of the bear that he was working on and that we never find out about the movies outcome. Both of these could have been bought into the story line with just a little bit less focus on the relationships and more focus on the story, like I said earlier.

I think 12 Episodes was a good length for this drama. I don't think it would have worked out with 16 episodes, even if there was more story.

Watch this drama if you want to laugh, see a genuine relationship and feel happy after every episode :)

It is hard to write a review about this one because I am a little unsure how I feel exactly.

Overall I really enjoyed this drama. I think the amount of friendship throughout the episodes was very strong and it made you feel really good about it. I enjoyed side story lines of other friendships, such as Na Ri's friendship. However I would have liked it if they focused on Nam Soon and Heung Soo's friendship more as I felt it gave the most affect on me and how I feel about the drama.

I was unsure about the large amount of focus this drama had on the teachers. I am not sure if I liked so much story line focused around them or if I would rather it be more about the story line. Either way I would have liked their friendship to have grown closer and have some kind of a result in the end as I found it kind of vague and quickly wrapped up.

I enjoyed the way they introduced characters and how they built on so many different students' stories. Especially Ji Hoon and the development of his character. But I will once again say I wish they focused on Nam Soon and Heung Soo's relationship more as I found this to be the most powerful.

As for the cast, I enjoyed most of the characters, especially I think the students were picked out well. I was impressed by the amount of famous actors and actresses they had. However I am unsure about Choi Daniel who played Teacher Kang. I felt that someone else could have played that role better.

I do not normally enjoy high school dramas much as I find the structure of them to be repetitive, so at the start I was unsure. But the thrilling relationships being introduced got me hooked and I am very happy I watched this drama. It is filled with friendship and relatable problems that will make you connect emotionally with the story.

This is one of those shows that is driven by the characters. Enrique's character was exciting, lovable and had such a strong effect on the overall success of the show. Dok Mi's character was one I had never really seen before. It was similar to the 'shy girl' who is afraid to love and take big steps, but they really made it unique and compelling. These characters made me want to watch the show again and again and always had me clicking the next episode, even when I told myself I should have a break.

Downfalls of this drama was the fact that there was too many emotions at some points. I found that tears were shown on screen when they weren't needed, and I am a person who loves to see tears. Also a couple of the characters were just not to my liking, such as Do Hwi. I found her to be confusing at times and annoying. The biggest downfall I think is the fact that this show didn't have a big climax. Normally something happens between characters that lead them to stay apart and suffer, then come back together at the right moment and embrace the love. With Flower Boy Next Door it seemed like such a situation could have played out at many moments, but it never did. They fixed it within 5 minutes and they were in each others' arms again.

Things I loved was the comedy of this show. I found myself laughing out loud a lot and it contained a lot of joy. Once again the characters were very good. Normally I have a grudge against the 3rd man in a love triangle, but I enjoyed his character a lot and how his love for her was expressed.

Overall I think Flower Boy Next Door is such a great show, it left me laughing, crying and full of feelings by the end of the show. I couldn't stop watching it!

I feel like I have so much to say about this drama but I will end up forgetting most of it.

First off, this is a very good drama. I enjoyed every episode and each week I was begging for more. I think this is one of the best dramas that have come out so far this year. There were some issues, but then there were some great things.

The twin sister story line was very good. I don't think I have any complaints about how they played it out. Maybe I wish I saw them bonding more? But otherwise I thought it was unique and surprising.
The stories of the other people in the school were interesting and heart hitting. Although I am not sure why they needed the story line about Yeong Eun. I enjoyed the teacher story line also. I always think that Lee Pil Mo plays a very good teacher.

Now the romance.... I think this is where the show struggled. I know the fans were all over the place with who they were shipping together and that the end result didn't make much sense. I very much agree. Although I do like both couples together. I wish they handled the relationships that Tae Kwang and Yi An had with Eun Bi better. It made it very hard on our hearts at times and I don't think we can believe the decision in the end was very justified in relation to her liked her first, who did more for her and so on. But I don't want to think about it! I just hope that if this drama was to move forward after the ending the relationships would grow to be different. However I do not think this ruined the show. It made it more compelling and addicting and it still had a sweet ending.

One complaint is about Kang So Yeong. I am unsure about Jo Soo Hyang playing this role... I feel that they made us hate her character TOO much. I feel like the hate had an affect on the liking of the show as it just pissed me off every time I saw her face. I feel as if they found a different actress her character would have worked out differently. Especially in the end where it seemed we should feel a little sorry for her, but I still hated her just as much.

Other things I enjoyed was the relationships Tae Gwang had. This includes him and his father and him and his teacher. I found Tae Qwang to be the most interesting character in the show.

For the casting everything was great, besides what I mentioned earlier. Yook SungJae was perfect for his role. PERFECT. Kim So Hyun never fails to impress in the dramas she is in and I am so glad she had a Main role. I also enjoyed Nam Joo Hyuk. He had a kind of awkward feel to him, with the way he stood and talked, but I really liked that about him. And finally Jeon Mi Seon, Who played Eun Bi and Eun Byul's mother was very fitting for her role.

Music was awesome. Reset by Tiger JK was such a catchy song that I found myself listening to everyday and the rest of the songs were beautiful and fitting.

Also I loved the little reference to school 2013 when they said Eun Bi would be attending Seungri High school :3


So to anyone who is thinking about watching this drama... just watch it!!! It has an exciting story line that makes you cry and smile! Although the romance may not turn out how you wanted it to, the journey is worth it! Definitely recommend this!
