Legend of the Blue Sea

A mermaid and a conman become involved and the mermaid has to adjust to a life out of the sea. The drama involves the protagonists relationship in modern times but also there past involvement in the Joseon era. Jun Ji Hyun plays the mermaid and does an amazing job as a fish out of water. (See what I did there) A humorous enjoyable well acted drama with an outstanding cast.

I've only just finished this drama and I already wanna watch it again, I have no idea how I have left this on my watch list for so long,It is quite possibly my favourite drama it has a bit of everything and that's what I look for when searching for dramas. All the actors were amazing in their roles and I'm gonna go and find their other work to see if it matches up to this masterpiece!

Korean TV at its best Lead actress is stunning Binge watched. Screen plays and story telling awesome. Even with subtitles to English it just makes me respect Korean scriptwriters and producers more

I watched the first few episodeds and was like 'meh' -especially because when the mermaid first reaches land we see lots of clichee's, it's very much been there done that- especially if you've seen Disney's version of the litle mremaid. Also, the mermaid is a bit annoying at the beginning but she gets better. Having said that, It was cute enough to keep me going and I'm glad that I did. It's a love story told well, the supporting characters are good, the acting is superb, and her tail is amazing. I really debated whether to give this a 7 or 8- because I did end up loving this show- but because of the so-so beginning which could potentially put you off I ended up with a seven.

I really loved this series. I wasn't sure about the mermaid aspect but as usual I was pleasantly surprised at how well it was done. The characters were lovely, most especially the leading lady. She was so pretty, vulnerable, tough and endearing all at the same time. The were many really funny moments in this without any over-the-top side characters. And the balance of tension, drama, comedy and romance was perfect. One of my favourite K-dramas.
