Aterrizaje de emergencia en tu corazón (2019)

Umm this show is soo good....

I really enjoyed this drama. I first watched this around December 2020. It was the first k drama I had ever watched. I really enjoyed the cast the most out of everything. The chemistry between Hyun Bin and Son Ye jin is absolutely amazing. I was pleasantly surprised when they announced their relationship in real life! I also really enjoyed seeing Seo Ji hye in this show. Over all the acting and casting is a 10/10. If there was one show I would recommend to those that want to get into k dramas it would be this show right here! This show was a great way to start my love for k dramas. I will definitely rewatch this show sometime soon!

A perfect drama.

Crash Landing On You was the second drama I ever watched, and even being the second drama I watched, it easily one of the best one I've watched. Please note that my review does contain a lot of spoilers/a lot of plot details, so I advise you not read this unless you have finished CLOY.

The characters were the best part of this drama, and each role was so perfectly casted. Ri Jeonghyeok and his squad of men in particular made this drama so sweet. They became a family for each other, and they gladly included Seri in this family. Additionally, every little side character felt so important and necessary, such as the village women where Jeonghyeok lives, the people who work for Seri at her company, etc. Speaking of Jeonghyeok's squad, I love them so much. I love how they feel when they find Seri's choice in North Korea and are proud to hear it's a best seller. I love how they are ride or die for Seri and Jeonghyeok.

Seri's character development is great. She starts off as a rather cold, workaholic. Jeonghyeok, as well as her time in North Korea, changes her for the better, she becomes a warmer person, she starts finding things in life that make her happy. Speaking of Seri being a warm person, I still smile thinking about the limited edition items she makes that have the North Korean Village Women's faces on them. Even though she had no idea if they would ever make it to them, it truly shows just how much she changed as a person. She truly wanted to show her love and appreciation for them. She even names that line of products 'saudade', which is a word to express a feeling of longing and nostalgia.

Ri Jeonghyeok is maybe the sweetest male lead I've seen in a drama? I still get teary eyed thinking of him holding up the scented candle for Seri as he searches for her in the market, or her face when she sees him in the middle of Gangnam. He truly cares so deeply for Seri, and that's so evident in the texts he programs to be sent for a year after he leaves (and the fact that he recorded his song on the piano for her so she could always listen to it... so cute).

I don't really pay attention to OST's much unless I happen to like the artist who sings it. CLOY changed that for me, in particular with the piano piece 'The Song For My Brother'. Despite not having a single word in it, it brings me to tears. It's so raw, and you can feel the grief and rawness in the notes. That song in particular is my fav OST song. I love how it was intertwined into the plot as well.

I personally didn't care much for the relationship between Seo Dan and Goo Seunjun, but not because it was poorly written/bad, but the story was already filled with so much of Seri/Jeonghyeok, that their relationship felt kind of unnecessary to the story. I did think they were cute, but their ending makes me sad.

I'm curious about the last scene in CLOY. I don't think Seri or Jeonghyeok permanently moved to Switzerland, since Seri's company is based in South Korea, and I'm not sure if Jeonghyeok could even move out of North Korea. Is that house one they have for when they are in Switzerland? Or am I wrong and did they move to Switzerland?

I give Crash Landing on You a 10/10.

Crash Landing into Your Hearts

Started off on this drama because of course Hyunbin and Son YeJin + the plot was interesting, with NK involvement (which is a big step!!). NETFLIX definitely helped with the speedy uploads every weekend for me to follow up on the drama.

Was drawn to the premiere, but i could tell what the ending was right from the start (which i guessed correctly). Overall it was a light, funny but sometimes tinge of melo (especially last few episodes) drama? Had a very enjoyable watch, although i won't say it is a relatable/realistic drama, but hey thats what drama's all about! Feeding on our fantasies. The other side characters were funny and enjoyable to watch ! Now everyone wants a Captain Ri !!

This is another drama that I dropped while it was airing and picked back up again months later.

Story: New and different. That being said, I wasn't a big fan of the first half of the season, which is why I dropped it in the first place. The second half was pretty great though. Therefore, I think it's better to binge. I loved the soldier bromance, and the RomCom moments between the leads. I loved! Goo Seung Jun's character arc. The ending was a bit cliche in my opinion.

Acting: Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin were great, but neither of them is really 'My Style'. Kim Jung Hyun really stood out to in this drama. I guess I didn't really get SLS because I didn't want him to get the FL, but I was definitely more interested in his scenes than a lot of the others. All of the characters were well cast however, and the acting was pretty great.

Music: Catchy OSTs, a bit melodramatic for my personal taste.

Rewatch: Medium because I only want to rewatch the scenes where the North Korean boys are discovering Seoul.

TLDR; It was good but definitely overhyped imo. I'm just not a Hyun Bin or a Ye Jin gal *shrugging emoji*

This drama was just amazing, it had everything and more; likeable characters, catchy sound track, and an engaging plot line. The only downside is... (would I even class it as a downside?) The first half the drama is better than the second half. Although you don't get tired of watching it (and tbf you don't want it to end), the second half is kind of predictable and all the juicy bits happen within the first 8 episodes. Regardless, it's amazing and I would definitely recommend it! Another slight issue is that some of the side characters may be a bit one dimensional, however it's not really much of an issue as you'd be too engulfed in the story line of our lovely main characters anyway haha! I just love CLOY.

It changed my life

What a unique story!! Imagine a rich businesswoman from S Korea goes paragliding in her freetime to de-stress and gets caught in a tornado that blows her into N Korea. She gets rescued by a handsome army guy and his rag-tag troop of subordinates (belovedly nicknamed "the ducklings"). The army captain ends up having to rescue her and protect her many times over, and she continuously stymies and befuddles this straight-laced, Joe Friday, "Just the facts, Ma'am", pragmatic officer.

Americans: Get past the one-inch barriers called subtitles and allow the looooong, dramatic pauses to roll off your shoulders (there aren't as many as other K shows). The characters are so well written that you will love them all. Even the bad guy played by Man-Seok Oh is sooooo good at being bad (not to mention a cutie too). You get all you could ever want in an entertaining show with this one. Give it a whirl!!!

Best Drama i ever watched so far...

So I was so bored this year because I didn't have a drama to watch so I searched for a drama to watch and then I fell upon this beautiful drama called "Crash Landing on you". I can't tell you enough how this drama literally made my day. I want to rewatch it without knowing what's going to happen. This drama is so different from other dramas. Usually, other dramas would have a love triangle and basically end the whole drama where the main lead will have the girl. This drama had me off my seat laughing and crying at the same time.

1. The plot
The plot was amazing, I loved that she wanted to be independent and so she did the parachuting by herself but ended on North Korea territory. She meets this man that tries to hide her under some circumstances so that she doesn't get caught. So they try ways to send her back, but things just don't work out. This plot isn't just like other plots, I love it because it's different.

2. Actor and Actress (main lead)
The male lead Hyun bin is so to die for omg!! I love him and his acting. Give all the awards to him. I thought the female lead would be annoying but I loved her when she first appeared on the screen. She is so beautiful and her acting is amazing. Son Ye Jin you did an amazing job, you also deserve all the awards!!

3. Other Actor and Actresses
Her family was toxic as heck but you can tell they did their acting amazing well. I literally cannot believe there was another couple in the series, it was totally unexpected but it was so worth it to watch. If you start hating someone in a drama then you know that they are acting well.

Overall, I loved the drama, This needs to stay a series by itself, I would totally hate it if they made a sequel because that will totally take away from the original film. I totally will give it 1000/10 because it truly is an amazing drama and i would love others to watch it too.

A truly beautiful story

While watching this show I was truly engulfed in the story. Only after stopping I would realise that I wasn't actually there with them experiencing all of this.

I feel the way that the show is made is truly amazing as it gets you so into it that you just can't stop watching. Even I, someone who doesn't generally watch romance all that much, found myself craving to see more.

I'm usually not one to get super emotionally invested in shows. but with this, I couldn't help it. It is a very touching story. Sometimes you would be laughing and other times you'd be on the edge of your seat filled with nervousness.

The world the story is set in feels very real as it doesn't just live when the characters are around. Instead, there's a lot of depth to the side plots and with all the unique characters and schemes, it's actually hard to believe it isn't real.

Obviously, no show is perfect and it still has its flaws. But I would still wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who wants to experience the rollercoaster of emotions and to dive into a whole new world

Possibly my most favorite k-drama! Love how the story is so original which lead to my curious self to start CLOY. Absolutely love Hyun Bin and Ye Jin's characters, their chemistry and their character development. I loved so many aspects of this drama that I have to put it in point form:
- Nothing and I mean NOTHING, dragged on throughout this drama. Was on the edge of my seat since Ep. 1 and just hooked onto the premise of the story.
- LOVED how each episode included so much! This drama in particular made me realize how many events that took place in each episode which was why I binged it in 2-3 days. They were able to add a good amount of events that took place or arising issues needed to be resolved in each episode while everything blended together, maintaining the flow and really made me interested the whole time.
- Seri's a rich woman who is smart and confident while being down to earth and kind. Liked how she wasn't portrayed as a "damsel in distress". Loved Ye Jin's acting with her facial expressions really portraying every emotion, especially in her eyes.
- Loved how Hyun Bin wasn't a "cold" guy and had to progress as someone being more open like other dramas, but rather he just built walls around himself due to what happened to his brother. We can already tell in the first episode in the special ending clip that he was smiling at Seri hanging from the tree talking to herself. He gradually opened up to Seri and was able to show how caring and affectionate he is.
- I adored the relationship Seri had with the soldiers, the constant bickering b/w her and Chi Su, Ju Muk's love for k-dramas, Eun Dong's kind heart and Kwang Beom's presence while being Jeong Hyeok's right hand man. Usually I get bored or uninterested in some supporting characters and am guilty to admit that I can skip parts I don't want to watch but I loved the soldiers characters and their chemistry so much and there was no skipping anything in this drama.
- We were made to somewhat dislike Seo Dan and Seung Jun in the beginning although I knew Seung Jun wasn't actually a bad person however I quickly adored them as the side couple and started realizing that Seo Dan really wasn't a bad person as well. Usually its hard for me to be interested in the side couple however this couple kept me curious with how they would turn out. No one really mentions it but it saddens me how Seo Dan waited that many years to be married to Jeong Hyeok and just having the hope even though she knew that he didn't love her. Also saddened with the ending for Seo Dan & Seung Jun. TT
- I liked how the military/officials scenes of either Jeong Hyeok going to work and dealing with issues, certain directors planning schemes and showing the behind the scenes of what went on was intriguing and kept the drama flowing well. Often times, many k-dramas have political/officials related problems scenes that are super boring and just fillers however CLOY didn't have any of that which is a positive aspect of this drama that really stands out.
- Liked how this drama portrayed North Korean people as the same as everyone and that most of us hold a certain stereotype towards normal NK people due to the dictatorship life there which was mind opening for me as it changed my perspective.
- Loved the cast and everyone's acting was excellent!

Some minor aspects I didn't like and why I left out 0.5 for the rating:
- The CGI was definitely not good for some of the scenes when they were paragliding which is alright but if someone else watching could be picky about it and I understand it added humor to the drama but wished it would've been a bit better!
- Would be better if Cho Cheol Gang's past was shown or he had some backstory as to why he had such ill intentions to kill JH's brother. I'm assuming JH's brother was after some sort of high ranked position as Cheol Gang but I maybe missed it somewhere?
- Glad that the ending was happy and satisfying in a way. I wished that somehow JH's father is able to issue visits to South Korea for JH which would let him see Seri much longer than the 2 weeks that the ending showed. That might sound bad haha but considering how high his father's position is I think it's possible. Also for them to go through so much just to only spend time for 2 weeks and then wait the next year is sad and frustrating
- A few very minor plot holes, one example is the scene of Seung Jun at the airport ready to leave but having to go rescue Seo Dan to which he randomly shows up with a gun when he was on the run the whole time and didn't have anything with him. Just minor things that I questioned later on and didn't affect the enjoyment I had watching this drama!
All in all, I loved this drama and would recommend to anyone! Would definitely re-watch in the future!
