Beautiful , raw , heart wrenching and warm. These would be the top emotions youll feel while watching this series , and youll defintely not regret watching this one. Mr. Plankton is not your typical rom com Kdrama , the main leads are both very different from the usual typical leads with Korean mannerisms , Hae Jo and Jae Mi are riff raffs who found each other. Both are very unruly and do and say whatever they feel like. This series shows you how damaged relationsips in your childhood go on to affect your future relationships. You see it in their relarionship so clearly. Both love each other deply but find themselves abondoning the other or end up not being there for each other during crucial times. And they show you how other figures in their lives like Bong Suk and Heung helped fill that hole in the their lives. My heart really broke for Hae Jo , imagine being loved and cared for deeply only to be abandoned out of the blue. The poor boy was just a kid and had to go through that. And to go on to find out that hes going to die soon. The ending was brutual the writers did us so bad , why would they make him beg to live at the final moments of his life. He lived through hell all his life and just when he got the chance to be happy and appreciate his life for what it is he has to lose it. Overall , it was a beautful but painfully sad story. I enjoyed the raw and natural chemistry between the two , they made it look so real. Kudos to the entire cast for this project and have to give it to Woo Do Hwan cause he does these roles so well. Looking forward to seeing then both in more .

I think what I have to say is similar to what many of us felt watching it, THIS DRAMA brought back what kdrama was all about. The story, plot, characters, dialogues everything was a 100/10. I wouldn't say its the most unique or novel concept, but something about the story makes you enjoy it so much. And I don't think anybody could've pulled of the characters as well as Byeon Wooseok and Kim Hye Yoon.... they nailed their roles, chemistry, dialogues everything. Also given the fact that the actors in real life had such a big height difference I mean Wooseok Is a giant standing next to Hyeyoon ....even then their chemistry was soo good. I have to admit this drama had the most comfiest hugs ever and some really cute scenes showing physical affection between the two . Sunjae's character was something very different from the typical male lead which made him even more likable, we loved seeing him be smitten by the same girl over and over again and how he wasn't afraid to show her how much he loved her. In conclusion, it was an amazing drama which I'm sure will make it to the top favorite lists of many Kdrama fans. I would say its a MUST WATCH, you'll laugh, youll cry happy tears and you'll swoon over Byeon Wooseoks Mello romantic eyes .... but most of all Ryu Sunjae and Im Sol will be very special and dear characters you'll never forget and you'll be glad you got to experience their story. I would be so happy if I got to rewatch this drama all over again so that I could experience all the emotions once again.

Contrary to what I've heard about this drama being slow paced I found it to be perfect. It was so real in portraying human emotions and relationships and didn't have any of that unnecessary drama or flair. I really really loved this series it had such a good storyline and was a healing drama. First of all, I loved the actress so much she did such an amazing job in portraying the character Yo Reum. She was so different from the conventional kdrama actresses we see, in her beauty as well as acting, I really appreciate the amount of effort she put into this role. Even her makeup and outfits, they made sure to show her repeating her outfits since she had a limited wardrobe, she was always bare-faced with naturally dried hair all these small things really helped in understanding how the character was different from the mainstream women in Seoul. Im Si Wan, as usual, did an amazing job portraying his role well, he was not the typical male lead we usually see in kdramas and it was a good change to see this type of character. He always does a really good job of portraying soft characters. But overall, I have to say it was not a romantic story but a story about people figuring out life and realising it isn't so bad after all. I really loved how they portrayed that it's the small things in life that really do make us happy and content, like in the case of Yo Reum she was able to finally be content in Angok and free herself from the vicious cycle of corporate life. This drama made me reflect and think about my own life as well and how most of us tend to get caught up in things like money, job, and status but overlook the small joys in life. The characters in the drama were so special, especially Bom and her family, these people went through the worst things in life, losing a family member to death and being abandoned twice but in the end, they still overcame it and found a purpose to keep living every day despite the past. Like this, there were a lot of good life lessons we can learn from this drama. Lastly, I really loved the relationship between Yo Reum and Da Beom, even though they didn't show much of the lovey-dovey stuff we usually see in kdramas, I really liked how they showed a mature relationship between two people who really enjoyed each other's company and instead of making the partner their everything the story showed how someone you love just becomes a wonderful addition to the life you're already enjoying and it makes it all the more better that you have them to live your life with. A big thanks to the entire team that put forward such a beautiful story! I highly recommend watching it!

I just finished watching 2521 and I want to say that it’s one of the best kdrama I’ve watched but at the same time it is also the most heart wrenching kdrama I’ve watched. When you see two people who are clearly made for each other in every aspect have to grow apart and break up because of “LIFE” it breaks your heart. I feel like we all love kdrama's so much Because it gives us a break from the reality we live in everyday with but 2521 wasn’t a drama like that it showed the reality of the life each of us live in . We got to see so many different type of relationships and how they grew throughout the relationship. Na Hee Do was introduced as a young reckless school girl who only cared about small trivial things but we see as the drama progresses how she grows into an adult as she becomes more understating about Yi Jin and perceives the world in a more practical way. I applaud her for the strength and courage it took to break up with Yi Jin despite knowing how much comfort and warmth he gives her. Since she grew up alone Yi Jin was like a ray of sunshine when he appeared in her life , previously she knew she was alone but after Yi Jin she didn’t have to feel that way anymore and was comforted at the thought that there is someone out there who loves me and worries about me. I’ve already heard about how Kim Taeri is an amazing actress and her work in 2521 definitely proved that ! But above all my heart goes out to Baek Yi Jin the most , his character made me go through so many emotions I laughed with him , I cried with him and I felt his pain as well . What an amazing character Nam Joo Hyuk has portrayed in this drama ! The poor buy was suffering from the beginning without having a job and being far away from his family and having to be publicly embarrassed in front of so many people ..what I liked about his character is even though Na Hee Do found out about his past through comments made by other people about his bankruptcy , Yi Jin didn’t push her away bc of pride or bc he was embarrassed he was honest and raw and just showed himself to her as he was broken and hopeless. But thankfully Heedo was able to restore his hope and comfort him throughout his difficult journey. But I feel more bad for Yi Jin than I do for Hee do bc he tried his best to stop himself from wavering despite knowing the outcome of this relationship but bc Heedo was persistent on experiencing that type of love he also couldn’t stop himself but look what happened. Bc they both had a relationship not only did that tear apart their whole freind group but Yi Jin lost his biggest support system I can’t even imagine how hard it must have been for him to lose her like that and after seeing what all he went through in New York how he was tormented by the stories of bereaved, surrounded by suffering and death my heart really broke for him. But this is the reality of life things don’t work out like we want to because life happens . Money and Career these are the things that make us lose the most valuable and precious things in our life but the sad part is when both these things don’t matter anymore in our life it’s too late to regain the precious things we lost. In Na Heedo and Baek Yi Jins life the path they both choose to live couldn’t sustain their love but when they both came to a point in their life where their careers we’re not an interference anymore it was too late. A huge thanks to the whole team of 2521.I loved their passionate young love story , their friendships , their struggles in life and how they overcame it together and their mutual decision to break apart bc they didn’t want the other to suffer.

Where do I even begin ?!! I loved this drama sooo much ! I really don’t know why it’s so underrated . This kdrama is one where I wish I could forget it so I could experience it all over again. Loved the plot , the acting was top notch and all the characters were wonderful. I just really loved Le Je Hoon and Shin Min Ah as a married couple in this they portrayed the role so well that even when I see them as actors individually I feel like they’re actually married to each other . I couldn’t really tell when So Joon actually started falling for Ma rin cause initially he was always so annoyed by her character and even though them getting married was in a rush , how their relationship grew after their marriage is so beautiful. They really showed a lot of realistic aspects as well as that young love between newlyweds . I also loved how both the character stayed true to themselves and although were opposites they complemented each other so well in their relationship. So Joon is very stubborn and always ends up doing what he wants and he likes his own personal space , that didn’t change even after marriage and Ma rin was understanding about it. Hats off to Shin Minah I loved her in Home Town Cha Cha , she did an amazing job in playing such a loving and clingy but very cute wife ! I am so eager to see more of Lee Je Hoons works , I absolutely loved him in this one. Thank you to the whole team of Tommorrow With You for putting forward such an amazing drama with an excellent cast ! 👏🏽👏🏽

I’ve heard a lot about this drama and also Seo In Gul is a favourite actor of mine so I decided to watch. Towards the 13th episode I felt a lag but then I continued to watch and I have to agree this definitely deserves a 10/10 rating. I think a lot of people unintentionally or intentionally find out that the ending is sad …I too knew it was going to be a sad ending but I watched it anyway and it still surprised me. I have to give it to Seo in Guk …he literally acted with his eyes … his stares , his expressions spoke volumes. Kim Moo Young his character was a reallly different character one I’ve never seen in any kdramas , and he pulled it off so well . Like I can’t think of anyone else who could pull this role so well. This guy just never fit in anywhere , he just did what he wanted and he just couldn’t care about anything . But Jin Kang was the only person that brought out the human in him. Jung So Min also did a very good job in portraying Jin Kangs character. Even their love story was really natural it didn’t seem over exaggerated as we see in some kdramas. Their romance also was very realistic …when he broke up with her .. the scene where she just cried at his door cause she couldn’t accept it it felt very realistic to me … usually in kdramas when the main leads fight or break up they’re prideful and just stop talking but in reality there no pride in love …so I really loved that scene. My heart also goes out to her brother … I felt like the ending didn’t do justice to him more than for the main leads bc he and his sister weren’t even on proper terms and he spent his whole life bringing her up with so much love and care only to lose her like that . I felt like that was very unfair . But overall I highly recommend watching this drama.

If I could give this drama more than 5 stars I would. Man these kdramas that are coming out are too good almost all of them are fighting for a spot in my top ten best kdramas ..lol . I’ll be honest I wasn’t looking forward to this drama at first cause I wasn’t familiar with both the actors and I didn’t like Kim Damis character in Itaewon Class. But all the buzz made me watch it and I was so shocked to find out how real the characters seemed to me. Like I legit know people just like them right from some of the dialogues the characters say to the personality was so accurate. So I think the best part of the drama for me was how they portrayed the characters. They felt very real to me. Choi Ung is portrayed as a boring person with no thoughts or desires but as the story develops we see there’s a reason why he’s developed that character. I loved how Yeon Su realised that she actually enjoyed her life and started to see what see had chosen for herself clearly instead of thinking she was always alone and miserable. Both characters were developed so well and even their relationship was just so so so beautiful. Both are just ordinary people, with their own struggles but end up finding each other and falling in love. I loved how they didn’t make the characters know each other from childhood like they were destined to be like a typical kdrama cliche I felt like the OBS love story was alot more natural and real. Kudos to the entire cast and team and I must admit Choi Wooshik and Kim Dami make an excellent pair with exceptional chemistry I really hope they can do more projects together. I’m really going to miss Kook Yeon Su and Choi Ung alot. ♥️

I am not the biggest fan of historical drama but this one was too goood . I mean the plot , the actors and the chemistry even the cinematography was splendid !!! I have to say the Director and writer did a really phenomenal job in showing the reality of love between two people at a time period like that , especially the love between a King and a court lady. Junho was really different from the usual male leads in historical dramas and I loved that and I cannot stress enough how well he acted ..this man is a multitalented king. Same goes for Sung Deok … sometimes I just couldn’t understand what’s keeping her from just being with him and in the middle I felt like the story was dragging but towards the end I understood the reason for it , how they wanted the viewers to see it in a realistic way, Lee Se young also is such a brilliant actor and Their pair was 100/10 , they really looked like an actual couple . I’m really hoping I can see them act in more kdramas hopefully , I’m expecting so much from Junho as an actor can’t wait to see his upcoming projects. This is definitely A MUST WATCH .. kudos to the entire cast and team for putting up a wonderful show.

Something in the rain was one of the most beautiful and realistic dramas I have ever seen . It really holds such a special place in my heart , the whole team especially the actors did such a wonderful job of putting forward this beautiful and simple story. Son ye Jin was already one of my favourite actresses but her work in this drama was exceptional. The character development of Yoon Jina was so realistic and how despite she changed as a person her feelings for Jun hui never did and how he helped her become the best version of herself. Jung Hae In’s character was a really different type of male lead and was so realistic. I loved how he gave his all for the woman he loved and put away his pride even so that he could be with her. Their chemistry was on point and everything else about this drama right from the music to the cinematography was beautiful. I never usually write reviews but this drama receives a lot more recognition, I loved it so much.

This is the first time ive ever written a review for any drama at all . I dont know what to watch any more since Goblin has set such high standards for me . This is truly THE BEST KDRAMA ive ever seen . Everything is so perfect . You really end up getting so attached to the cast , theyve acted so remarkably well that you actually find yourself feeling the same emotions the characters feel in the drama . It has a little bit of everything in it ...it really is the best ..Truly . i just want to thank the cast and crew for working so hard to deliver such a beautiful story to us viewers .
