Story- Being 30 episodes it has enough to keep you interested. All the time jumps helped to keep the story fresh. However, the romance somehow confuses me. The romance between Tak Gu and that girl who works in the shop (her hair didnt help) is not believable and couldve been written better. The end was simple and a little opened ended.

Cast/ Characters- The actor that plays Tak Gu is really a good actor. He had a nice balance between funny and emotional. The actor that plays his brother was kind of scary the whole time. He did make you feel sorry for him but man they could have written him a little less pathetic. Eugene acted her role really well but I despised her character. The supporting cast did a great job in thier acting.

Music- Very nice score. Goes well with the scenes.

Overall- 30 episodes seem a lot to invest but the episodes go by fast and the storylines are interesting to watch. Theres definitely room for improvement though...

I was a little weary of watching at first just because I wasn't familiar with anyone in the cast. However this drama really surprised me...

The story idea was new and very interesting. Its more of a family drama with a few twists which keeps the plot interesting and never boring. This drama is very well written and deserves its 20 episode count. My only critique would be the ending. It could have ended better.

The lead actress was superb in her role. Her character growth is one of the best I've ever seen in a drama. I feel like anyone could have played the main guy's role. His character was quite boring also. However, I really liked the second male leads i.e. the brothers who vie for the romantic affections of our female heroine. Their characters had depth and provided fun.

Music was not memorable.

I'd watch this again because I was engaged in the story.

Overall this is a heartwarming drama filled with life lessons.

When I first read the synopsis for Padam Padam I honestly didn’t think much of it. Okay so a guy falls in love with an unemotional girl but has a “guardian type” friend played by Kim bum on the side? Just so you know all I got from this was Kim Bum. That is basically the only reason I even thought of watching in the first place. Amazingly enough though the first episode was so interesting that I looked beyond what first attracted me to even watching in the first place…

Story- Right from the first episode your mind will be all over the place while watching. I kept going WTF every moment and then the ending of that episode was like “are you serious?!” but in a good way. After watching that first episode I knew I was in for a show with a story I had never seen before in the Kdrama world. The story went at a slower pace but it was needed to not only build up the plot in a way that will keep the audience interested throughout the entire run, but also it was needed for the development of Kang Chil’s relationships(not just romantic). I wont give a way the ending (which honestly with the way they started the drama it could’ve gone anyway the writers wanted being unpredictable) but I will say it was bittersweet and not completely closed. Really though I cried in the last 2 episodes and its hard to make me cry!

Acting/Cast- Phenomenal acting by everyone involved including every single one of the supporting characters. Really though JWS. HJM, and KB really shined and brought their characters to life. Those three deserve acting awards and I hope they at least get nominated. I just wanted to point out that I really did not like the character Ji Nah at all during the first half of the series so much so I didn’t care about her romance with main character. But her character development during the second half was so good and made me root for her. This is what good writing is all about. Making you hate a character one minute but then changing your mind in another is pretty amazing to me.

Music- I liked the music score more than the OST but the songs did elevate the scenes in which they were meant to.

Rewatch- I would wait 3-4 years before watching this again just because this is one of those dramas that doesn’t need to be watched for a while because once the plot is known you don’t get the same feel you had the first time. Hopefully by then I will forget most of what happened during the story so I can enjoy watching it again.

Overall Padam Padam plays like a movie with the excellent cinematography, acting, plot, and score. This drama was new, refreshing and I hope there are more dramas like this to come.

Aww this movie isnt as bad as the other review suggests. Yes the ending sux but the stuff that comes before is kind of interesting to watch. The acting was pretty average but I liked how all the characters come together, each having their own special talent, to put on this fashion show. Its the one last chance to spend with each other before the inevitable occurs (the sucky ending). I was really disappointing with the romance part cause they could've just added that one last scene at the end showing them together at least to give us some hope. But yeah I'll repeat the ending sucked. There are worse movies out there so if you just need something to watch this is okay, although 2 hrs is a little much for the story.

Dream High is an entertaining watch for sure...

Story- The writing was very solid with twists thrown that took what could have been just another romantic comedy and made it an addicting and unpredictable watch. It's only downfall would be the ending. The ending kind of seemed random and I didnt understand why certain people couldn't be together.

Acting/Cast- Everyone played thier parts well and were believable. However, I did not like 3 of the main 6 characters. To me the characters Hye Mi, Jin Gook, and Sam Dong were highly unlikable to the point I wished the writers didnt focus on them too much. My favorite characters were actually the adults and of course Pil Sook & Jason couple.

Music- Awesome and went on my ipod straight away. The music really added to the excitement of the show.

Rewatch- I'd watch this every year cause it was funny and i worship pilsook/jason couple.

Overall Dream High's plus's would be its solid writing and its OST which make it a drama that is highly recommendable.

Well after watching the first 6 episodes I didn\''\''t expect to become addicted. I actually contemplated on dropping it. Then episode 7 happened. The storyline changed so dramatically. It became dark, unpredictable, romantic, and exciting. The story stayed fresh and exciting all the way to the end. The last episode was seriously WTF till the last 5 minutes. Of course they couldn\''\''t part with thier signature unpredicatbleness. Still, the ending was very satisfying.

The acting was very well done. Han Ye Seoul shined throughout ans showed acting wise she is not to be messed with. Eric did a good job but I don\''\''t think this is his best role. Lee Jin Wook really is a good actor. Yes his character was stoic for most of the drama but the small scenes where he got to show his personality (like smiling and his love for MW) really proved his acting abilities. I rally liked the character of Joo In Ah. She was cute and all she wanted was to be loved.

The music suited the changing moods of the drama.

I\''\''ll rewatch this but probably farther down the road.

Overall this is a drama that gets better towards the later half of the episodes. I\''\''ll miss this one for sure.

Going into this I had no expectations and this was my first time watching anything with the leads...

Story- Predictable yet so engaging that you won't want to stop watching by the end of it. The cooking theme was done so well that even though you watch them do the same things every day it is fascinating and not repetitive. The romance was perfectly done because it wasn't so intense/messy but it wasn't simple/without conflict.

Acting/Cast- The leads are known to be amazing actors already but they were perfectly casted because of their amazing chemistry. I fell in love with the entire supporting cast.

Music- The first time I watched this I didn't notice the OST but the second time I watched it I downloaded all the songs to my Ipod. I listen to the songs all the time now.

Rewatch- Already watched it twice in the same year and I'll continue to do so.

Overall Pasta gives no surprises but it really is fascinating and with the awesome cast and OST it really is the whole package.

To complete this drama you will need patience. Unfortunately for me I am not a person with any so I wasnt able to finish all the eps. i got to ep 29 before I skipped to the last ep. Still, this drama has an interesting plot with good character development. I really like Bae Doo Na as an actress because she is not your typical glamour girl. She brings a certain toughness to all her roles. However, her terrible singing really made her character portrayal of Gloria less believable. Suh Ji Suk is sooo handsome. I liked that his character portrayal really had a good development. He started off as a cold hearted businessman to a man who just wants to love wholeheartedly by supporting Gloria in her dreams. The supporting cast was funny & just great to watch. The music was nice to listen to. I don\''\''t think I can rewatch this cause theres just to many eps and if i did id definitely skip around. Overall if this drama was more like 30 episodes it would have been brilliant. Still worth watching once tho.
