This was one of my favorite Anime series I watched back in the day. I have never seen the other adaptations before this. I always wondered how the heck they would translate the main female character into anything realistic but they did here. One word describes this adaptation: CUTE Let me be clear, it wasn't toothache cute, the kind that makes you want to stop watching, no.... It was Cute in a way that had me smiling throughout. On the story itself, removing my anime memory, I loved that the supporting cast had their own side stories vs. just the main leads. The dialogue, the characters, the chemistry between everyone and their looks = cute! What wasn't cute was the music! Bravo & Brava. It was fantastic watching everyone play, especially Shim Eun-kyung as Seol Nae-il. I loved her in Sunny.

One thing they kept too cute was the relationship between the main characters. They could have provided a bit more mature development there. This is one area that made me love the anime. There were a few spots that didn't connect the story well for me and this is why I'm not going to rate it as high.

Overall, the talent of the cast is indisputable. I wanted to see them play more. I thoroughly enjoyed the Mambo performance and hearing the Vivaldi score throughout. (I'm biased, I love Vivaldi)

I recommend you watch this when you want something lighthearted and entertaining to watch. And it's a quick watch...you want to see what happens next.

Till next...drama

Pinocchio, Pinocchio I thought you were going to be a stupid show. But I was so wrong...I should have known better you had Mr. Tall, talented and sexy as your main man. Lee Jong-suk ....wow. He just continues to showcase his talent. Spoiler: He is responsible for Ms. Park Shin-hye finally, I mean finally having a realistic kiss. She also matured into this role really well. The chemistry between the two was great. The supporting cast is top notch. The plot and storyline had you engaged from the start. It made you sit up and say "oh wait...so this isn't a comedy..." (for those of us that don't read in-depth previews before a show and it had Park Shin-hye. I was expecting some funny in the first epi.) Spoiler: the only part that wasn't so believable or I missed something in translation, was the whole phone/stolen text piece, maybe it's just me. There were parts towards the end that I wanted a little bit more, something fell flat a little? Overall I was satisfied. This was a great show. If I say anything else, I will spoil it for you, so watch it for yourself.

Ok, this is my first review. Why? Well, this drama! It's full of mystery, captivating, entertaining and sexy. Sexy, sexy...as in the lead actor makes you want to entertain getting bitten. Well maybe not that far but you get my point.

Every episode gets better as you try to figure out the underlying story of why Mr. Prosecutor is a vampire. There are a few holes here and there but I figured this was intentional and would get filled in as the series keeps going. There are a couple of episodes where they could have built out the story a little better. They did a good job with the supporting casts' back stories which added some mystery and surprise. This gave the characters and the show more depth. It certainly kept the sidekicks from being too stereotypical. The chemistry between the actors is also just right and I'm intrigued by the minnie sizzle building between...well you'll just have to watch it to see it. It's unique and like a good book you won't want to stop until you get to the end or endish... I really can't wait for more.

Still my favorite drama so far. This was probably the 3rd or 4th dramas I watched, when I first started watching K-dramas. It made such an impression on me. I became a Gong Hyo Jin fan after watching this.

It was delightful. The acting, I've learned I to expect nothing but the best from Gong Hyo Jin and So Ji-sub. I felt like I was watching a movie and I didn't want it to end. I really don't have words to describe all that was. All I can say is that, there needs to be more dramas like this one. All stereotypes need not apply. Thank you for making this. It never gets boring from start to finish, this was a well told story.

Beautifully done. Epic. It's not your grandma's drama baby.

This drama was decent. It started out well enough but the last few episodes fell flat. I read that they cut production short so that maybe why. I liked how the story was developing but then it was like the Director didn't know what to do next. I was waiting for the climax but it never came and it could have been so good. The music was good. The dancing in the beginning was great. It was current w/ some edge. There was some rap, bboy dancing and a little bit of rock-n-roll. This is what made it interesting. The audition portions were really great.
The story would have been better if they had focused more on the group fusing these different genres together to emerge as a standout group. I also liked the lead actress and actor. I'm so glad they gave her backbone.
....The Title should have been My Dream, I Dream, Dream Fusion, Dream X...anything other than the title they chose.

Fyi: Ko Eun-Ah was more believable as a boy than, than Shin Hye in You are Beautiful, to me. That's the only comparison I'll make w/ that series cause it ends there. She was convincing as a Tom Boy.

Sigh... I could have loved this...(i liked Mr. Rock-n-Roll's husky voice n vibe)

This is a filler series if you need 1 to watch. The 1st few episodes are worth it.

At first I wasn't going to watch this. It looked like it was going to be another boring and cliched love story.

I watched the first episode and was caught. Even though the title said "emergency couple," especially with the way it started, I wasn't expecting the medical drama aspect. This kept my attention and made the show more enjoyable. There was only one "potential" couple from the supporting cast that wasn't quite believable, they could have left out. There were a few slow portions towards the end but overall, I was happy. Yes, it had the same character types that every Kromance has, like the mom, who hates the love interest, but it had aspects that didn't fit the "norm," and that's what had me till the end. One more key item....I haven't laughed out loud at a show in a while, but this had me laughing several times. No other comedy/romance had done that for me previously. I think that made it stand out more for me.


spoiler: I'm still waiting for Dr. Ang to get punched 5 more times.

Thanks to Netflix I watched Season 2 before season 1. (I really thought it was season 1. The pic they had up was from season 1.) Anyway, I was hooked from the start and when I watched season 1 I treated it like a pre-qual. I ENJOYED every bit of this drama. SEXY & THRILLING describe season 2. Man.

It's unique and was a bit unexpected since I had either watched Action Movies or KRomance/Melodramma dramas before this. It was refreshing and I wanted more. The visual effects, the gritty scenes and the mystery keeps you glued to your seat. I did think at one point, the storyline got a bit overdrawn with the Coroner, however, I also liked that he becomes part of the mystery. (trying to keep spoilers out) Some themes were recycled in the episodes but it was still completely watchable.

The sizzle...
The tension between the prosecutors has built very nicely from season 1 into season 2. One item to note, if it was even possible, Mr. Prosecutor is even sexier in season 2. The special effects also got cleaner/crisper. I found myself humming the theme song. Yes, I am soo hooked. I need the holes filled by a season 3! Will there be a season 3? That's the mystery. I WANT MORE.

So dear viewers, if you want something that picks up the pace and will keep your pulse racing...you should definitely watch this!

Love this series. The suspense...yes. Plot...yes. Action...yes. Romance...yes. Sexy....yes, yes.As soon as you finish 1 episode you'll crave the next episode, I mean crave like a fiend. The plot keeps you in it and the romance is just right. Spoiler!! Who knew holding hands could sizzle like this? 1 item though...they overdid the Parkour in one of the episodes and after all the build up there should have been a little more meat for the, I'll just call it, "the true reunion" towards the end. Also, Moments of the last episode felt a little hurried. This is the only reason this wasn't a puuuurfect 10...it's a 9.9! Other than that..it'll keep you on the edge of your seat. It's a fantastic journey. My recommendation? ---Just watch it!! Healer is the cure for the common KDrama!

Fyi: . I'm now going to be looking out for more shows with Ji Chang-Wook. Empress Ki...you and I will be in for a looong binge.
