Better watch the remake

I watched this just because I saw the remake, Something about 1%, and this is the original drama where it was based from. I wished I didn't watch it though. It was the old type of drama that everyone actually partnered up and the story was not just about the main leads, the side characters had their own little dramas as well. I actually skipped most parts of it.
(Like the bestfriend and the cousin got married too, while in the remake, they hardly got together even at the end...The lawyer and the younger sister also got together... like everyone has been partnered up...)

Sorry to say but the remake was much more streamlined and sticked to the plot of the story, rather than side tracking too much like this original. But I know, this was the old style of making dramas back in 2002-2003.

This drama and the remake are 13 years apart, so you will really see the difference.

While You Were Sleeping - Just finished this drama late last night. It was good. It closed all the loose ends properly. It was a good drama with good writing and plot. However, for my part, I felt that the romance was somewhat just forced or squeezed in. Just to acknowledge that Suzy and Jong Sok Oppa were a handsome pair in this drama...Or maybe its just me because this was supposed to be a law thriller and I like romantic comedy too much. Either way, just my thoughts...

Discovery of Romance- Just finished this drama. I watched this because of Sung Joon from I need romance 3. It's a good drama, how come I did not "discover" it sooner...the cast is great and the story line is awesome. If it wasn't for Sung Joon, I wouldn't have paid attention to this gem of a drama. Even if Sung Joon Oppa was not lead here, he did a great performance. Was not too fond of the lead guy, Eric Mun, but he was good too. Female lead was just ok.

I Need Romance 2 - Just finished this drama today. It's just ok. Maybe if I wasn't a seasoned drama viewer yet, and I watched this earlier, it has a nice romantic story. But since I'm not, its just one of those plots. Probably because I have seen the other works of the same writer of this drama like I Need Romance 3 and Discovery of Romance. What probably struck me the most in this drama is the 2nd male lead. Why did he have to be so perfect and make me want to punch the female lead because of her stupidity. That's all. 2nd male lead syndrome again and again.

Let's Eat 1 & 2 - Finished this drama and its sequel about food. Watched both part 1& 2 before writing a review. It's great. For me, I would say, its a starter drama for anyone looking to dip their foot in the world of Kdramas, or asian dramas. It has a light story, a bit of suspense and a bit of romance, on both of them. They were made to be like each other but not the exact same plot. And of course, the spotlight on: FOOD. Now that I mentioned it, that was the only negative thing about these dramas, but in a good way (is there such a thing?)...since it spends massive amounts of time focusing on how each character eats and close up angles on food, it makes you very very hungry. So, either eat before watching, or eat while watching. You absolutely cannot eat after watching because you will be very hungry by then. Believe me, you won't be numb watching them focus on food. You will eat absolutely anything while watching this drama (like I did). Also watched this series because of Yoon Doo Joon Oppa, from Splash Splash Love. Also on part 2, there is Seo Hyun Jin Unnie from Temperature of Love. So those were a plus. These dramas are definitely recommended.

An awesome travel drama. Like a tourist travel. Because it was shot in France way back in 2016 and fully pre produced before it was shown this year. It was just a bit dragging in the middle when they were telling the stories of each individual and how they came to be the part of that "packaged" tourist travel group. But it picked up again, so it was fun to watch till the end. Acting was just ok. Nothing spectacular. I guess, there was no need since they had an awesome back drop for the drama already and they just needed a light story to get it completed into a feel good drama. You may or may not watch it. The choice is yours.

Started to watch this last month but got stopped due to some circumstances (I moved houses). Plus I am also watching this with my husband. One of the KDramas he agreed to watch with me since there is not much cutie romance in it.
Its a refreshing drama to watch if you are tired of sweety sugary romance dramas. And if you are into law a little bit. It has lots of comedy in it and little action. Plus Kang So Ra is here. And that lead guy from "Lovers in Paris".

Just finished Meteor Garden 2018 yesterday. It was cool and cute. It was a refreshing take on the well loved Taiwanese version from way back 2001. And they scrapped the season 2, they just jammed it all on 1 season, that is why its 49 episodes instead of the former 27 episodes. This Daoming Si is definitely handsome, but younger. And the fashion choices are different at the most. No headbands or sandos...thank god... Shancai is different too. But she's cute. They added some different aspects like the F4 plays bridge...and of course the technology...cellphones are way different from 2001 to present. Also there is a use of social media. Anyway, I liked it, its on Netflix and easy to binge watch. Definitely recommended.

Just finished watching the finale ep. Its a RomCom, but not enough romance and comedy. haha. I mean, its not to its fullest extent. There were good parts of course. But seriously lacking. For one, there was no chemistry between the male and female lead. Then the comedy part is not all that funny. But one thing I was thankful for is I don't have the 2nd male lead syndrome, which I somewhat always develop. The male lead, sometimes looks good, other times, not. Same with the female lead. Acting was pretty decent. Plot was pretty light. Do I recommend?...Maybe, maybe not.

Worse spinoff ever

This is by far the worse spinoff ever. Either they should have made it good, in par with GGS1 or never would have made it at all. I dropped it but gave it many chances. I watched till ep 4 -5, then jumped to ep 12 because read somewhere here or on viki comments maybe that GGS1 will align from there...well, it did not and this drama is _______. Sorry, don't wanna say more bad words. Well, in tradition of me saying what I want to say, and I will not be a fake about it: GGS1 is one of my fave C dramas, considering its 41 eps and I hate dramas that long, but it held my attention that long because it was cute and entertaining.

Then this DT Appledog's Time came, well, it definitely flunked in comparison to GGS1. Like read: Do not waste your time. I surely wasted mine.

Sorry to Hu Yi Tian because they botched up your drama...I know that is the reason why you stuck being the "extra" in GGS1 despite you being a leading man material because it was promised to you that you will have your own drama too...

P.S.: Why did they have to change the actors of the main players like Appledog, Solo, Ou Qiang, Grunt, Su Cheng...etc...that actually made it messed up that it already is...ugh

PPS: No bashers please, I am just telling the truth. I just don't want to mislead my fellow drama lovers that is the reason I joined this website or community in the first place, to contribute and may we have the best viewing experience ever! I, thank you!
