Something About 1 Percent (2016)

Ha Seok-Jin did a wonderful job portraying an arrogantly stubborn and powerfully rich grandson gradually showing his inner soft side. Adding chemistry to this couple relationship, Jeon So-Min balanced her school teacher stern character with a touch of sweet cuteness without any nauseating effects that draws and counters Ha Seok-Jin 's character. It was an enjoyment to watch the rapport between them which caused quite a few crackle of laughter from me. It was also nice to see a story where both lead characters were not weak to evil plots and as such, these plots were not frustratingly annoying since the two leads were not ignorant and stupid. The story did not end abruptly to leave the audience with their imagination for a "happily ever after." The writer and director took the time to show how they lived happily ever after; a wise decision on their part to allot a budget to spend on the conclusion which most stories failed to do so. A true romantic comedy with a well balanced "a little of everything" that will leave the audience satisfied.

So here's the thing, the story is typical and the ending is predictable. But there is something in this drama that'll make you watch and crave for more. The 40 mins per episode is kind of short compared to other dramas but it would make you crave for more and that's a good thing, in my opinion.

The actors are great. I like how the story is very light, perfect when you just want to chill after a long day from school or work. There's also this tingly sensation caused by the protagonists that would make you want to go into a relationship as soon as possible.

Overall, it's a good drama to watch. Try it!

100% recommended

One reviewer wrote this is a hidden gem and I absolutely agree. I can across this drama after reading an article that was listing recommended dramas. I said why not. I love it. I have watched it a few times already. Episode 5 is one of my favorite episodes. I laughed and kept repeating. Very cute couple. I have to say I didn’t like the puppy on the ledge scene. I was like how the hell did a puppy get on a 2nd story ledge?!?! That just didn’t make any sense. Just watch that scene and get back to me. Lol but I do recommend this series to anyone who is listening. Love love love this series

Love it

It’s really amazing how a simple story is just too adorable and one of the bests. If you are looking for a kdrama with little drama, a lot of romance, amazing kiss scenes, a strong female protagonist and a charismatic male protagonist, this is it! You need to watch this if you like things fluffy and cute.
The female protagonist is really humble and kind but it’s not naive, which is the normality when a character is kind. She always speaks her mind and defends herself but is not arrogant or rude. Really different comparing with most of the female characters.
The male is the same- surprising. We expect some rude dude and we get a cute and generous guy.
The only thing that I would change is the music, really annoying in some scenes, you will understand.
I will rewatch for sure!

Oh please, this was adorable

She would be your typical sweet girl but she is not only that, she is intelligent, confident, witty and funny. He would be your typical mean CEO, but he is actually harsh but genuine, workaholic but a very kind and romantic man. Most importantly they are both extremely mature and their immaturity is only shown during rare moments of jealousy which are actualy portrayed very cutely. I rewatched it because I suddently wanted to see their first kiss once again but I didn't remember ever finishing this drama when it was ongoing. Their chemistry is seriously mind blowing. Now that I rewatched this after some years, now that I am more mature myself, I completely understand why they take certain decisions. I appreciate the witty dialogues so much.
I am also completely speechless about how effortlessly sexy the ML is. He generally is that in other dramas too but here he is acting in a full on, properly mature and sensible romance which displays the range of his acting in this genre really well. I am not even fangirling when saying I am so impressed by how charming he is. I can't believe they ad-libbed so many kisses. They looked like a real life couple and sometimes it was so realistic that I felt like I was invading their privacy by listening to them talk ahah I loved loved loveeed how all the misunderstandings are solved immediately.

The ending! Perfect closure for everyone. The title is explained perfectly in the ending. It was a really short and sweet experience

Sometimes, there is nothing more enjoyable to watch than a cheaply made Korean Romantic TV Series. The genre doesn't always produce gems but that's fine because most of them are perfectly solid shows that I can sit and waste a week on. Something about 1 Perfect is one of those shows. It's not got a ton of depth to it. The workplace group are a bunch of interesting characters who don't get as much screen time as they should, there is more to be explored regarding Lee Jae In's background (his mother, father, etc). However, the strength of the main characters is so strong and compelling that it didn't need any other plot points to be a fun show; explosive chemistry and strong performances to bring their character traits to life.

This show is such a little gem, I'm really surprised it's not more popular. I think this is the only drama where every episode was uniformly satisfying. I loved everything about this series: the romantic leads with their amazing chemistry, the realistic conflicts that were never allowed to drag on forever, and the overall sweetness.

One of the things that I love about this drama is how satisfying equal their relationship is. While the male lead is pretty rich, his lady is never overawed by it, and he doesn't use his wealth to overwhelm her either. And I can't say just how satisfying to watch a drama with leads who seem to genuinely like AND LUST after each other. Trust me, you won't find any fish kisses or pained expressions in these kiss scenes [Heirs I'm looking at you] I never understood why so many female leads in korean dramas look as though they are just enduring the kisses. It's a real buzz killer, one that is thankfully absent in this drama. Overall I highly recommend this one if you are looking for a sweet, cute love story with great rewatch value

I hope I and everyone as well will find their that 1 percent chance which will make them a better person if not a perfect one.

You reap what you sow and what you give comes back to you... This is the sweet story of DaDa and her grumpy man.
It is fast paced and the plot is on point. Usually the problem with this kind of sweet drama is they drag it out as much as they could, (hello, My Secret Romance) but this is just the opposite. In the beginning the male lead seemed off and also - im sorry Ha Suk Jin- old for his role but later it turned out really good.
We get a last minute second OTP which makes the show just perfect ^^

If you think what you need is one more happy ending then definitely watch it. :)

This show is 99% romance, no unnecessary twists, rivalries etc, things that make episodes unbearable to watch. Extremely good for a person who want lightheart romance show. Want to take a break from heavy and complex romace shows , then this is the best show to watch
Story:-
Story is well crafted and well paced, their is no dull moment or unbearable moment in story. Story is all about how hate transforms to affection and then to love.
Characters:- Characters are lovable with good logic behing their actions and acting done by cast was great.
Music:- No standout music tracks but its not bad either, it is background music and it serves its purpose.

Overall a lightweight romance show filled with lovable moments and has great logic and hold together itself well. Recomended for beginners, still veterans can enjoy it as a break.

This is one of my all time favorite dramas. I have watched it several times already and I'm sure I will watch it again. The acting is spot on and the characters are SO MUCH FUN. Ha Suk Jin and Jun So Min are perfect as the leads in this story. They play off each other really well as well as with the rest of the cast. And I love their chemistry together.

One of my favorite parts of this drama is that the female lead is a strong character. She stands up for herself and for others and doesn't back down in front of the male lead. Plus both the leads grow and change throughout the story and I appreciate that it's not just one of them. He changes the most, but she does a bit as well.

If you want to watch a fun drama with excellent acting and a story that contains several twists, but will leave you with a smile on your face, this might be just the one you want to watch.
