The Ballot

The actors had amazing chemistry. Their relationship is cute, inspiring and healthy. The cinematography is on point as well as the musical score. I had their OST's on replay. Love the different characters on the drama from Goo Sera's mom, dad, her friends, workmates. Everyone seems relevant and not portrayed as an add on. You can learn so many lessons in the drama. Goo Sera was portrayed well by Nana as well as Gong myung was portrayed amazingly by Park Sung hoon. This is the kind of series you want to watch over and over again.

" Into the Ring " is a pretty fun drama.

It is character driven, with a quirky, dynamic leading lady who dominated every scene she was in. Nana did a superb job with her character and she is one of the best surprises of this year. She pulled Goo Se Ra off masterfully and without overdoing it. The rest of the cast did a great job as well.

As for the actual story, it combined comedy, romance and politics in a beautiful mix that was entertaining and not overbearing. The romance was realistic, subtle, as it didn't take time off the actual story, and it did help that the couple had chemistry. The comedy, in addition, was just enough, mainly produced by the character. Finally, the politics, with the corruption cases, were pretty intense, without being too complicated, confusing or tiring to follow.

However, one thing that the drama didn't handle well, apart from the odd camera work with the high angles and close ups, was the last episode. It was rushed, partial and just not what one should expect from a drama that was pretty steady up until then.

So, overall, nine out of ten.

Nana and Park Sung-hoon are an absolutely adorable romantic couple from start to finish. The laughs and the romance are scattered throughout every episode. All of the side characters are really well acted. The OST is amazing Loved it! The main reason to watch is Nana... who has been in three really good dramas in the past year. In this one, she finally gets to play comedy and romance... and she does it brilliantly. She deserves some awards at the end of the year.

A great option for a lazy weekend binge! Loved the characters, the plot points, the romance and everything about it. Both the leads were inspiring and they share such a healthy and beautiful relationship throughout the show. Both are very strong, determined, smart and fun characters, who are a little annoying at times, which only adds another dimension to their character arch.

Additionally, it highlights the importance of active participation in our communities. Far too many of us are complacent and often become the cause of our own destruction and downfall. 💯 will recommend this show!!

PS: the leads' chemistry was definitely the highlight of the show.

A young lady Goo Se-ra who has been a serial complainer to the local assembly for years decides to stand in the election to shake things up. Surprisingly she wins and even though she is a little ditzy and wears her heart on her sleeve she begins to make improvements to local peoples lives. The lead is played outstandingly by Jin-Ah Im with just the right of crazy to be loveable but not over the top. Great supporting cast especially the females and well filmed and paced. A light romantic comedy with a feel good factor.
