Even though I felt that it was lacking in something on the surface, that I couldn't quite pinpoint, it still had a lot of depth and talent in pulling the viewers heartstrings. The three main actors all did an amazing job which made the story more believable and worth remembering. Over all, it has that dark atmosphere running through almost the entire movie and even though it's more slow paced than the trailer made it out to be, it is definitely worth your time and it will most likely leave you wanting to re-watch it later on (or at least with a craving to recommend it to everyone you know).

Drama Special Series Season 1: White Christmas

But if you're looking for a thought provoking drama where you can spend half the time guessing whom the murderer is, and the rest of the time studying the abilities of the human mind; then this is the one for you.
This drama is based on the question "Are monsters born or made?" and focuses on the psychologic part the story. Now before you back away (I know I usually back farfar away from movies that have a psychologic theme) this one is really worth the watch!
There were frustrating parts and questions that weren't fully answered. I also wish that there had been more shown about each characters background. I rated the rewatch value low only because of the fact that once you have watched it, you will already know how it will end and who the murderer is.
Over all, a very interesting and thought provoking story that pulls you in and allows you to ponder about one of life's greatest questions; "Are monsters born or made?"

This is a fairly slow-paced movie, and it may be a great choice if you're having a peaceful weekend and you which to watch something that doesn't require a lot of focus. It is an enjoyable movie which may leave you feeling pleased and happy for all or some of the side characters - I say side characters because this is a movie that doesn't follow just -one- storyline; it moves from one couple to another, all as Lee Hyeong moves on to other bodies. Because of this, it felt more like watching a bunch of shorter movies than one movie as a whole. That said, I felt like it lacked a bit of a main purpose.
Yet again, I would recommend to watch it, for one of those calm evenings when you just want something to relax to.

Usually when a movie includes extremely pale children and tall women in desperate need of a haircut, it's the type of movie that will leave you hiding behind your pillow, but not this one! Or well, not this one for about 90% of the time. That 90% delivers your favorite K-drama theme; not so socially acceptable woman meets incredibly handsome man, and soon comedy and cute scenes are to follow.
The comedy relief is, well, an actual relief. Lee Min Ki and Son Ye-jin did an amazing job on portraying the main characters and some of the scenes were very funny. This is a movie for everyone, even for those who aren't quite found of scary movies (but do cover your eyes when there is obvious creepy music or dark scenes around the corner! You have been warned.)
I can't pinpoint what it is, but I feel as if something was missing in the storyline. But as a Lee Min Ki fan, I'm overall satisfied with this movie!

That is pretty much the only thing I can say after finishing this drama. This is a 'try to figure out who the culprit is' kind of drama and I can promise you (unless you're a genius) that you wont figure it out too easily or too early in the drama. That is one of the things that make this series so good and so worth watching; the suspense of not really knowing how it is going to end.
The music was good, the acting as well. I set the rewatch value low only because of the fact that once you have watched it, you will already know who the culprit is, which kills the suspense and joy of rewatching it.
Characters were interesting (though I feel as if they left one out, but my memory might be going bad). The ending leaves quite a few loose threads but is exciting enough to (somewhat) pull it off.
Overall, a must watch for those of you who enjoy crime/suspense/mystery shows that have you guessing for the cuprit.

At first glance, it seems like your typical action movie but this one provides alot of comedy. The actors and main actress are all great and there are many scenes that will make you laugh. Even during the serious and dramatic scenes, there is always something to bring in the comedy.
Trust me on this one and give it a try!

The story in itself is a little plain, as the entire thing is played out in school over a short period of time, leaving us with very little info about the characters. Either way, due to the suspense of solving the case, the movie does not get boring and is definitely worth the watch!

The story in itself is very cute and funny, with good actors and likeable characters. So if you're looking for a movie that will fill you up with fuzzy feelings and smiles, watch this one! But if you're looking for a story with a deeper message, this might not be the one for you.
All in all, I personally really enjoyed this movie.

The drama did get a little draggy for my own taste, towards the end, but it does keep you intrigued to find out what will happen. The ending felt sudden but well scripted.
Over all, I would tell you to give this one a try, but be ready for a sudden urge to grab onto the princess'y hair of a certain annoying character!

I find this to be a calm paced and somewhat cute movie. I havent read the manga or seen the anime so I cannot compare it in any way, but from what I've seen through this movie it seems like a sweet story.
Some parts, I didn't like as much, and I (for once) didn't like the main male character. Some of the things he did seemed rather off to me. The storyline could have dug a little deeper and the romance is not as much in focus as I had expected. Still there are some really good and touching scenes and in the end, I enjoyed the movie.

The downside to this movie, in my opinion, is that it kinda has two stories going at once and they don't tie together in the end. It leaves alot of questions and you end up feeling that alot of things just weren't explained. The twist feels more random than anything else. Yet because of the suspense and the great acting, I would recommend others to watch this movie.

The story becomes very repeatative after a few episodes, but the beginning and ending of each episode will keep you intrigued to keep on watching!
The acting, to me, got better and better throughout the story. I found it a little odd that such a quiz show would be aired (and have willing contestants at that!) but if you just go along with it all, the story behind the quiz show is what makes this drama worth your time. As the story begins to uncover the secrets of the main characters, you will become more and more hooked!

One of the bigger questions in the storyline wasn't answered at all which left the ending feeling kind of sudden and rushed :/
An okay story to watch though, if you've been searching for movies for hours with no luck and you just have to settle for one. But definitely not one of the better stories, in my opinion. Also a kinda heart breaking story.

The story isn't bad at all though, it's actually quite suspenseful and will make you want to continue watching it in order to find out who stays and not. The characters are likeable and even though the acting is not the best, it's still alright.
I would recomend others to watch this drama, but I'd still put a slight warning on the confusing ending.

The movie had potential, the main actor and actress did a very good job at portraying their characters and there were a few action filled scenes that made me want to continue watching it. But overall, I would have to say that the movie was just a little bit too slow for me.
