My Comfortable Ending
This drama is about Search engine optimization Jae-Gained (Jang Na-Ra) who’s a CEO of a profitable furnishings firm and fairly well-known by the media. She actually has an ideal life along with her husband Heo Quickly Younger (Son Ho-Jun) who’s so affected person and understanding and their little lady. She works very arduous at constructing her firm that she even has a stalker and issues begin taking a darkish flip when she begins getting attacked and doesn’t know who to belief anymore.
This drama began out so good and was so thrilling for the primary half of the drama and it actually made you concentrate on who’s betraying her and attempting to break her. There are a couple of leads that it’s important to take into consideration and I actually beloved how thrilling and it simply stored you considerably confused with the totally different leads. I actually wished the drama to proceed in the identical vogue, however sadly, I assume they needed to reveal issues slowly and I really feel prefer it actually began to lose a few of the freshness and pleasure the drama had earlier. I actually didn’t like who they made the mastermind of it on the finish as a result of the motive was fairly convoluted. It simply didn’t make sense for this particular person to take issues this far. It simply looks as if jealousy was a fairly weak angle that this particular person would do this stuff and it simply didn’t line up in my head. Once more this drama in all probability had too many episodes so they simply kinda ran out of fabric and needed to hold including totally different situations.
I’ve to say that they did attempt to delve a bit into psychological sickness with this drama which I believed was fascinating. I like that they did attempt to normalize going to get remedy and being on treatment that’s prescribed by a health care provider. I really feel like it is a sensitive topic particularly in South Korea and I appreciated they tried to point out a person that wants assist, however but can nonetheless perform properly with some help. It wasn’t an ideal portrayal, however I like they tried to deliver this topic to the forefront of the drama. It additionally exhibits that psychological sickness might be attributable to trauma and issues which are out of our management and that it’s okay to go and converse to somebody about your previous and issues that occurred to you.
I believed this drama began out robust, obtained a bit misplaced, however was nonetheless a good thriller drama!
Love Track For Phantasm
The drama is a couple of crown prince Sajo Hyun (Park Ji-Hoon) who has an oppressive father who he watched kill a complete household in order that he may develop into King. He has a tough time coping with being the son that his Father desires and developed a second persona who he calls an evil spirit Ak-Hee. He will get switched together with his persona each time he sleeps so he usually avoids going to sleep so long as he can. It additionally stars Yeon Wol (Hong Ye-Ji) who’s the only survivor from her household that the present King exterminated. Her sole focus in life is to go and kill the king and avenge her household’s loss of life. She comes throughout the Crown Prince and meets each personalities and Ak-Hee falls in love along with her.
I believed this might be a enjoyable drama a couple of man with two personalities, however sadly I didn’t discover as enjoyable as I believed it might be. It additionally actually delved into the entire non secular aspect of it being an evil spirit so I ignored these components fairly a bit and but funnily it appeared to have little impression in understanding the story line. I personally see the twond persona as a model of Sajo Hyun that’s introduced out as a result of he couldn’t cope with the trauma that his Father causes. It was a solution to shield himself, he created his personal protector. Truthfully over time it was complicated who we had been imagined to be cheering for as a result of at instances Sajo Hyun will get tiring and Ak-Hee appears so refreshing and all of it will get blended up over time. I might have most well-liked them acknowledging that Ak-Hee was simply part of Sajo and that it was okay for Yeon Wol to care about him as properly. This drama was additionally simply too lengthy and so they actually dragged it out for the ending.
One good factor is that it a superb ending, regardless that it looks as if a rushed ending. It was unusual as a result of that they had a lot time to finish it correctly however for some motive didn’t wish to do this. I really feel like they need to give us extra time when the couple will get collectively on the finish it additionally simply appears to finish earlier than we are able to even see them collectively. Additionally it appeared a bit bizarre that the primary lead had a spouse and its kinda bizarre as a result of it simply appears to be considerably ignored. So long as they don’t have a child collectively and he ignores her then it’s okay.
That is only a mediocre fantasy/romcom drama.

So it is a typical drama the place it’s a contract marriage and naturally they promise to not fall in love with one another, however everyone knows what will occur. There isn’t something actually that distinctive or totally different in this kind of drama, however but it’s nonetheless a enjoyable journey and it doesn’t get boring since there may be solely 10 episodes. I’ve to say the exaggerated performing that’s frequent in Japanese dramas doesn’t appear to be an excessive amount of on this drama. There was nothing tremendous thoughts blowing about this drama however it a good simple going watch!

Qi Lian is searching for a good friend that disappeared from this present world and figures Xiao Yuan is related to this. I believed this was a fascinating drama that basically held my consideration nearly right through the 30 episodes. I discover that it was a bit too lengthy with too many flashbacks that I are likely to quick ahead by means of anyway.
I actually loved the actress that performed Xiao Yuan and her efficiency and located the story to be actually fascinating how she at all times strives to do her greatest and work out her issues. Although it has the fantasy factor I additionally loved simply watching the peculiar issues like attempting to excel in her job and I like how the primary leads don’t actually get collectively till afterward. I discover it will get so boring when the primary leads get collectively to early after which there isn’t actually anyplace to go, there is no such thing as a stress.
So the ending and the reality will not be what I anticipated and appears actually totally different however I really like the journey that you simply go on with the drama. I like dramas that make you assume or have good plot twists and it feels that method since you spend a lot time believing one factor in regards to the characters after which the reality comes out and it’s utterly totally different and makes you take a look at the characters and one thing utterly totally different.
