ENDING: Happy ending
If I had to point out one flaw: I needed more passionate kissing, especially when they were saying their goodbyes. The acting from the "American" actors was horrible. Also, I really liked Onew, but there were times where he overacted for me.
EVERY SINGLE CHARACTER was amazing. No stone was left unturned when it came to resolving story-lines. It was a beautiful experience. I cannot believe it is over. I am going to miss everyone!! I am ready to watch it again!! At least, I have closure because the two lead couple got married in real life & that soothes my ❤.
I am going to miss staring at Song Joong-ki... until next time. - StarsHan Hyo-jooLee Jong-sukKim Eui-sungYeon-joo discovers that W, a webtoon created by her father, is a living world and saves the protagonist, Kang Chul.

ENDING: Happy ending for me; Bittersweet for some
If I had to point out one flaw: I needed the memories to return. I do not care if that person read it again, I wanted that jail kiss to be remembered. Hehe.
CAUTION: If you are emotionally unstable, do not watch this because this drama will take your emotions & your heart on an extreme roller coaster ride. You will have severe whiplash with all the twists & turns occurring. This drama is so intense & emotionally draining, but in the end it is all worth it. The lead characters make you root for their happiness so much that you get so caught up in it. Every secondary characters added another layer to the main characters. Also, I just want to give a shout-out to the male best friends of the main characters because they were down for their friends no matter what was going on. I will never forget this drama because it is everything. I guess, I should not have expected any less from my favorite South Korean actress because everything that I seen her in so far was great. I am looking forward to seeing more dramas of Jong-Suk Lee because he is something special in here. - StarsSung Dong-ilLee Kwang-sooJin KyungA love story between a psychiatrist named Ji Hae Soo and an author who had schizophrenia named Jang Jae Yeol.

ENDING: Good ending, but I wanted more
If I had to point out one flaw: I needed more closure.
Honestly, I was not expecting to fall in love with this drama as much as I did. It was a tragically beautiful story which I felt so connected to, especially because the actors played their parts extremely well. The romance between both the leads was a slow-burn one. Yoo Gong & Go-eun Kim already seemed as though they were an old married couple. Do not get me started on the heart of the show, which was the bromance between the two lead characters. Goblin has friendships, romance & a great story-line. It is definitely one of my favorite shows. When it ended, I felt as though I lost a part of my family. I will miss this story & will be seeking more dramas from the actors. - StarsJun Ji-hyunLee Min-hoLee Hee-joonA mermaid from the Joseon period ends up in present-day Seoul, where she crosses paths with a swindler who may have ties to someone from her past.A+/9.6

ENDING: Beautiful ending
If I had to point out one flaw: The weddings & the memories
Talk about a drama that will make you want to scream, but at the same time makes you want to hug the writers for writing an outstanding story. The actors were great... Ji Hyun made me want to go back & watch My Love From Another Star because her acting blew me away in here. I had trouble deciding who my favorite character was, but Heo Joon Jae won out in the end because he was too swoon-worthy. I kind of feel as though I watched the best drama Lee Minho is in & I will be disappointed by the others. I hope that is not the case. Also, the idol from Cross Gene was too adorable in here. - StarsJi Chang-wookPark Min-youngTae-MiKim Moon-Ho is a popular reporter. One day, he learns the truth of a case that took place in the past.

If I had to point out one flaw: There were about 3 minor plots I wanted more on.
*tears* I did not want to let this show go because I felt as though I was apart of it. The story-line & the twists are some of the best I have ever seen in a drama... and I have been watching television shows for a while now.
After seeing this masterpiece, Ji Chang-Wook has gained a BIG fan in me. I want to watch any & everything that he is in. What an amazing actor he is !! - StarsPark Seo-joonKim Ji-wonAhn Jae-hongKo Dong Man, a former taekwondo champion, and Choi Ae Ra, a receptionist, struggle to follow their dreams as life throws obstacles in their path.A/9.5

If I had to point out one flaw: More bromance.
I Remember You is a psychological thriller. So, if you came for the romance, I suggest you back out now because while their is a hint of romance, the main focus is about a serial killer's misplaced sense of caring. The writers pulled every twist & turn out their behind to have give me whiplash, but it had me on the edge of my seat wanting more. The best part of this show is the bromance... if you do not know by now, I live for a great bromance. One thing I want to point out is how the characters will challenge your sense of morality. Seo In Guk's, Park Bo Gum's, D.O.'s & Choi Won Young's acting is top-notch. Listen, let me tell you guys about D.O. He can act his ass off. I mean he was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G !! I know I fell in love with In Guk's because I thought he was Sungjae from Goblin, but I end up loving In Guk more (sorry... still have love for you Sungjae). Also, I am OBSESSED with Park Bo Gum. I am adding all their dramas to my watchlist. I need to see more of them. Give this show a chance a prepare to be blow away with the clever twist & turns. - StarsLee Joon-giMoon Chae-wonSeo Hyun-wooAlthough Baek Hee Sung is hiding a dark secret surrounding his true identity, he has established a happy family life.

If I had to point out one flaw: What the best friend did.
UPDATE I came back to this drama because the couple is too amazing & it turns out this show is worth the craziness of the first episode.
Dropped... The 1st episode was going so well until this show committed one of the biggest T.V. show plot sins in the first 35 minutes... I will not say what it is, but I did skim through this show to watch the romance between the lead characters & it was amazing. I am not sure I will come back to this as I already seen everything I needed to. - CreatorYaongyiStarsMoon Ga-youngCha Eun-wooHwang In-YoupAfter being bullied and discriminated because of her ugly looks, a high school girl transforms herself into a gorgeous "goddess" and quickly rises to fame after mastering the art of makeup via online tutorial videos.B+/8.5

If I had to point out one flaw: Cannot think of one that was too glaring
I know people were fainting over Seojun, but Eunwoo as Suho had me fangirling. I just loved everything about his character. I liked all 3 main leads & the love triangle did not give me any unnecessary angst. The secondary characters were hilariously amazing!!! The OST is so catchy. This was such a light, cute & sweet drama to watch & I can see myself watching this again. It is Team Suho forever though. - StarsChae Soo-binHwang Seung-eonPark Se-wanKim Min Gyu has wealth and success, but lives an isolated life due to his allergy of people.

Of course, Jinyoung was flawless in here, but Kim Kwon & his character stole my heart.

ENDING: Happy ending
If I had to point out one flaw: At one point I felt there was too much aegyo... some of the secondary characters really irked me, especially Gook-doo. The sound effects were too much at one point.
Before I watched Suits, I wanted to get a taste of Hyung-shik Park's acting & I have to say I really enjoyed what he brought in this drama. Since I saw A Werewolf Boy, I am already familiar with Bo-young Park and for the most part I liked her acting. I have to say that if you are not a fan of aegyo... you might either want to prepare to endure it or skip it because everything about the character Bong-soon pertains to aegyo. Also, if you thought Ji Soo was going to try to steal your heart in the love triangle... THINK AGAIN. I was always rooting for Min-hyeok, but Gook-doo had me thinking about him for one episode. Then, everything that came out his mouth was straight sexism. I was over him in a heartbeat. On one hand this drama is a light, fluffy romance, but it has some dark "thrilling" moments with trying to catch a serial killer. - StarsSong Joong-kiMoon Chae-wonPark Si-yeonMedical student Kang Ma-Ru is framed for a crime.
