The story was simple. It's about office romance between the new intern, Seunghyun, and his workaholic boss, Jongchan.
I like how they maintain the balance between their work and personal relationship. Their relationship is also a healthy one, there's some misunderstanding, but it doesn't dragged out for too long because they talk it out with each other. There is enough sweetness and the chemistry is on point.

There are some office politics, but they didn't go in depth with it. Except of some the higher ups in the company, the side characters/co-workers are really nice. I especially liked the 2 best friends Seunghyun have. They're so funny and helpful.

Acting was on point. No awkward moments. The music was okay, but nothing memorable. Cinematography was good to see. I really liked the pool scene from episode 6.

However as every other KBLs, the storyline felt a bit too rushed. There are some plot that could've been fleshed out.
But overall it's a good drama. I'd recommend if you like lighthearted fluffy office romance.

A cute love story that starts with a fanletter

There's only 4 episodes but it tell so much story. I couldn't count how many times i laughed and cry while watching this.
Father and daughter bond are so heartwarming. The depiction of entertainment world was accurate.
If only there's more romantic scenes for the couple it'll be more perfect. There are some unanswered questions, but it still enjoyable.
The acting, OST, and cinematography was really well done. They really put effort into making it.

Recommended if you're looking for a short lighthearted watch.

One of those dramas that full of plot holes, but somehow watchable.

Plot's premise was intriguing, but there's almost no answer of anything. Dinner part was forgotten after episode 2 and the other character felt unnecessary.
I think the problem was the duration. There's no enough time to properly tell the story. Probably because the recaps, they spent too much time on that.
The acting was fine, even though there's some scenes where they looked awkward. I didn't like any of the OST (for now). The cinematography was good.

Overall
I won't recommend it to anyone. But if you're going to watch it anyway... Don't try to find the logic, just go with the flow and maybe you'll liked it.

The beginning was fine. There's some illogical stuff, but I ignore it. I was guessing it's gonna be a brainless rom-com.

Main leads interaction was funny, but there's almost no romantic chemistry between them. They looked uncomfortable during skinship scenes. Their lack of communication is so silly. They're adults they could've just talk it out, but instead they keep assume the worst and lying, it's kinda frustrating. Then the ending was also really rushed. It feels like there's few parts went missing.

I like the comedy, PD lady, and the OST.
The PD lady definitely the character that got me through the whole show, she's just really funny. Btw the flashbacks part was good though, it gives a good explanation of the characters.

Overall
I thought I'm gonna hate it, because most of the reviewers says it was really bad. But after watching it... It was shoddy, but not that bad. I probably won't rewatch or recommend it. But it was entertaining.

First few episodes is confusing, they keep repeating the same footages from previous episode. And there's a lot of empty scenes where the leads just stare into nothing with ost playing in background.

It took me some time to understand what happened to Jungwoo and why he couldn't write anymore.
The love triangle was interesting, i thought he would end up with Junghyun, but then there's Taeyoung coming between them. Taeyoung is indeed a good guy, he's positive and give good influence. But still, his presence kinda bother me. He clearly knows Jungwoo and Junghyun were together, but he went for it anyway.
And Junghyun, after 3 episodes he made me wonder if he's the villain or not. But i guess he's just a walking red flag.
TBH i don't feel the chemistry between them. The open ending just confuses me even more.

There's also something's missing from the story, but idk what it is...

Overall, it's an okay drama.
Acting was well done and ost was good. The message it trying to describe was good, but the execution is bad.
So i don't think I'd rewatch or recommend this to anyone.

A story of cat and dog who return to their owner as humans. I like how they keep the mannerisms, but didn't act so stupid/naive like how animal turned human usually portrayed.

The romance part got me a bit conflicted.
I'm fine with Milk's part, because he act more mature and his love interest is someone new.
But, a dog with his owner? I'm not sure how to feel about that. Choco still act and treated too much like a dog, it's a kinda hard to see him and Jungwoo in a romantic way.

However theme of loneliness, dealing with grief and letting go were portrayed nicely.
It could've ended on ep 10 and it's still a fitting end, but it'd be too sad. It's good that there's ep 11, with the happy end.

Acting was okay. I must say the actor who played Milk just great. He really embodied the behavior and mannerisms of a cat.
Setting and music was good, it fits the story.

Overall, since i could forget the fact that Choco and Jungwoo started as dog/owner, i find it as an adorable story with good message and I could enjoyed it.

I've watched the kdrama version and i liked it. It only had 2 episodes, each episode is 1 hour 10 minutes. The story was fast paced and nicely developed, but i feel like the ending a bit rushed.

This version was okay. Maybe because there's more episodes (24), it get stretch out and focused too much on the school part. The added side stories making the plot's focus slowly faded. Making it less of a time travel and more of youth drama.
I do like the school part, it was funny and nostalgic, but it should've only focused on the main character's story. And even with more episodes, the last few episodes still felt rushed.

Overall, it was enjoyable
I skip lots of the filler scenes, but i still enjoy most of the drama. Also the songs used were really good too, even though they overplayed it a bit.
If you're watching this don't hope much for the time travel plot, just enjoy it as it goes.

It's was a cute mini drama with some of the classic troupe; hate to love, cohabitation, boss/employee.
I like this couple in Kissable Lips, but that drama's storyline is not my favorite. I honestly like this office romance better.
Even the side characters isn't boring, they actually helped to make the story more entertaining.

The acting felt awkward sometimes, i think that's also because of the camera angle. They could've done the flashbacks part better, it looks choppy. And idk where, but it feels like there's some plot holes.

It's just one of those dramas that's not great, but still entertaining.

Storyline in the beginning was refreshing; love triangle between the merchant, gang leader, and the Prince. There's also plot revolving the silkworm business.
But after 20 episode, after the missing prince story, it turns really draggy - it takes very long time for the leads to be together, annoying jealous side characters, palace politics. Also the plot holes; FL can't hold weapon & ML can't be close with woman, seems like after few episodes they forgot about this. Which makes me skipping a lot of scenes.

Other things that i liked :
- Bai Lu's portrayal as the gang leader
- sidekicks love story
- even with all those predictable twists, the ending for the main couple was good

The acting was great. The music was so-so. I don't really notice it.

Overall it's okay, but i won't recommend it.

A hilarious roller coaster (≧▽≦)

The idea is unique. In this drama it's the female who had a lot of husband, usually it's the other way around. But the storyline is nothing serious.
Like the title, it's about a Princess who married 5 Prince. It might sound complicated, but trust me, it doesn't! The 5 Prince had their own quirk and attitude, so the Princess need to learn to get along with them that was a humorous journey. There's some little twist and turns throughout the story, but it's also a funny one.

It might be a mini drama, but the comedic timing, sound effects, character's expression, and even editing/animation are perfectly done!
I hope there's season 2.

Overall, it's a wholesome short drama, made me laugh from the beginning to the end.
I'd recommended if you want to watch something light and hilarious!

The story is okay.
It's bit more complicated compared to season 1, with more characters and mystery/cases. The plot twist are good. It's pretty predictable, but still fun to follow. It has less comedic part than s1. The main couple chemistry was good even though there's not much intimate scenes. The ending was satisfying, but it does feel a bit rushed.

The acting was good. Cinematography and fighting scenes are good for a low budget drama.

Overall it's a good continuation to s1. The whole drama combined is 2 hours long, same like s1, so it's perfect for binge.

Story starts off fast and gets straight to the point, there's no fillers and long episodes.
The acting is good. Romance part isn't that much shown. The whole mystery/investigation was good. There's a lot of funny moments.
I like how the female lead is physically strong and good at martial arts, meanwhile the male lead is weaker but good at solving crimes.
Not much characters involved in the whole show which makes it easier to follow.

Overall, It’s a good short drama.
The whole drama combined is 2 hours long. It's perfect if you're looking for short drama to watch.
