Ah! What a great comeback for Kim Soo Hyun! I'm glad that he took the offer of this drama because this drama was such a rollercoaster! This was said to be a healing drama and I agree! It was a very relatable drama and it also talked about mental health which I think is very important for everyone to know.

By reading the plot, I was thinking that it wasn't complicated until I've finished the drama and actually understood where the characters' personalities are coming from. The twist was really unexpected and if weren't for the fan theories that I saw on the net, I wouldn't have any idea what will happen! What I also liked about the plot was how it relates to the female lead's stories from the books she writes. The ending was really satisfying and the family and friendship aspects in the drama are just really heartwarming. It was very unusual in a good way and it tackles so much about overcoming your cruel past.

Going to the cast, they are all amazing. Kim Soo Hyun didn't disappoint, and Seo Ye Ji's acting was definitely amazing! My first drama of Seo Yeji was Save Me, and from that, I believed that her acting capabilities are beyond what I'll expect and I was right. The chemistry between Kim Soo Hyun and Seo Ye Ji is oozing hot! But the one who made me feel different types of emotions was Oh Jung Se. Oh Jung Se's acting as Moon Sang-tae was definitely top-tier. He's one of the versatile actors and I know and I wasn't expecting how he nailed his character so much. My last drama of Oh Jung Se was Stove League and his portrayal from his character in that drama to his drama here, all I can say that he's just a great actor.

The music was really fitting to the whole drama! If it weren't for the music, I wouldn't have gotten goosebumps in some scenes that literally looked creepy for me.

All in all, I loved the drama and I really think that you can learn a lot of lessons from it! Also, it's okay to not be okay.

Wow! This drama... I am honestly at loss for words how this drama gave me such unexpected feelings! I also learned a lot about baseball and how it's managed. However, it doesn't only revolve in baseball at all. It tackles baseball POLITICS which you don't likely see in a drama.

The plot is so unique and refreshing! From the beginning, knowing that Dreams has been a team that lost many times, it feels like it was hopeless for the team to rise up again, until, newly hired general manager Baek Seung Soo, came into the picture. I couldn't help but admire this man. He was calm, smart, and was very witty. I couldn't help but agree to him with every decision he has made because it was all backed up by facts and evidence. I would also like to applaud for his colleagues, Se Young and Jae Hee are the purest and lovable characters and they're the people who actually worked hard in order to achieve their dreams. I definitely loved how the characters and the plot blended so much. There was such a balance between, the pure and genuine characters, and the corrupt and money-hungry characters. I really loved the execution and the flow of how Dreams started as a team that seems disbanded until they were brought together as one.

I have no words for the acting. Honestly, I can't say anything about Namgoong Min because, from the beginning, I knew he'd deliver it well. He exceeded my expectations!! His character was very complex and mysterious from the beginning 'til the end of the drama and that's why he was very memorable and iconic. There were glimpses of Seung Soo's past, to give us an idea of why he has such a cold aura. I would also like to emphasize on Park Eun Bin. This is my first drama of her and I am so happy with her character and how she delivered Se Young. Se Young is someone bright, cheerful, smart, and very hard-working. I literally had no hard feelings for her character while watching and I loved how she blended with Seung Soo and didn't just treat him as her boss but as her friend as well. Jo Byeong Gu was very fun to watch! Seeing him in such a mature role made me root for him to do more roles like this because he can actually portray diverse roles! Let me mention the supporting cast. They were great! I really loved rooting for them to be better in every episode. Oh Jung Se as the CEO was great. I used to see him in dramas with comedic roles, but seeing him in such a serious role in this drama and executing it well, says a lot about how great his acting skills are.

The OST was great. I really love hearing Kim Dong Hyeok's "Full Power" in every end credits and it just gives off the vibe of how strong the drama is and because of the OST, you'll root for more when it comes to the next eps.

Overall, the storyline was very refreshing and the acting was brilliant. The OST was very empowering. The whole drama felt so warm and encouraging for each and every one of us to be better and reach our dreams. I've learned so much in this drama and one of them is that success wouldn't be achieved if you're alone. This drama will make you be part of something that you'll actually root for by seeing through their hardships and seeing the people who work behind the baseball team. This drama deserved everything to win the Best Drama for Baeksang Awards!

Ahhh a drama I unexpectedly need that can fit right through my busy schedule! This webdrama was recommended to me by my internet best friend and I'm so glad that I listened to her. The fact that it's a webdrama, I got to finish episodes in between my breaks! Even in a short amount of time, they gave such a good balance of romance and drama!

The plot was really simple since it only revolved around high school students and their lives as 18 year olds. However, I liked that each and every one of the characters was given a background and focus! Despite, how simple the plot twist was, I really liked how it fit the situation and it wasn't obvious at all! I liked that at some point, the drama showed the simple struggles of what a high school student is going through by each different perspective of a main character!

The cast was sooooo cute and it was obvious they had fun while filming the whole drama! It's my first drama for almost everyone except for Kim Dong Hee and Naeun, but they were still so cute! My favorite characters were Doha and Siwoo! I'm soooo glad to get to know Shin Seung Ho and I was quite surprised that he starred as a main character in Moment at Eighteen! Now I can't wait to watch the drama!

The OST was so cute for the whole drama! Seventeen did such a great job!

All in all, the webdrama was something I really needed and loved! I liked how short it was for the audience to root for every episode more! You'll definitely love the characters and their backgrounds! Lastly, their friendship was really unique and fun from the beginning, definitely a worthy watch if you want something short with good vibes!

I have been anticipating this anthology and honestly, I liked how it gave me a heads-up with this episode of how "futuristic" the whole special drama can be. I was getting goosebumps the whole time because somehow, I can see humanity's technological evolution to create robots to care for all our necessary needs.

The story was really intriguing and at first, I thought that it will be very calm for the first episode, however, I was wrong. I was getting goosebumps by the middle to the end of the episode as it intensifies.

The acting was good! Lee Yoo Young was so good at showing her frustrations and anger towards the things in her life and how she portrayed as the caregiver robot. I applaud with the supporting cast as well. And Ye Soo Jung for portraying Sister Sabina that had to go through conflicting emotions because of the caregiver robot.

I really really loved the music (I have a thing for sci-fi instrumental music) that made everything extra "advanced" looking and the CGI was so good.

All in all, this was a pretty good start for the first episode of an anthology and I'm looking forward to the upcoming episodes! You really can't help but anticipate and think whether these things might really happen in the future. It's scary and realistic at the same time how robots seem to have emotions due to their advancement and how humans like us, can be fooled with their so-called "emotions" rooted from their malfunctioning system. I think that this whole anthology will give us another perspective with the idea of what the "future" will become or what the "future" already is.

This is actually my first drama of Yoo Ah In and Kim Hee Ae and I'm really hoping to watch more dramas of their dramas! This drama didn't really live up to my expectations except for the acting, but thanks to this drama, I'm really looking forward to watching Chicago Typewriter and The World of The Married!

The plot was actually simple, student-teacher x affair. However, since the characters were about to do something wrong, I was expecting to feel so much thrill but I was kind of disappointed that I didn't. I felt like it wasn't enough. The plot was at a very good pace from the beginning and I liked how they incorporated music into it, adds more to its grace and elegance that was just a mask, however... It all went downhill. It got a bit boring and so many other things were incorporated which I think wasn't necessary for the main point of the story.

Despite the lack of thrill in the story, the cast is still inexplicably amazing. The acting was definitely superb and Kim Hee Ae and Yoo Ah In, along with the supporting cast delivered their roles well.

No doubt about the music that it's beautiful. I really love classical music because I think that it's very pleasing to the ear. I was really surprised that Yoo Ah In was actually the one playing the piano.

Overall, the plot was not that good but the acting and music were amazing. If the plot was given more thrill, I would've looked more forward to finishing the whole drama faster. Yoo Ah In and Kim Hee Ae had chemistry and I'm so glad that they pulled it off! I'd only recommend this if you love the lead actors, but I got bored with its pacing and plot. The Classical music in the drama is a very good bonus tho!

I was actually expecting this drama to give me simple feels but wasn’t expecting to love the drama and to get attached to the characters so much. I watched this because I saw reviews saying that this was good but I didn’t really take the reviews seriously until I watched it.

The story was very simple at the same time very heartwarming. You’ll be able to see the characters grow and develop which will make you know so much about them. Watching what they’ve been through, I couldn’t help but cry, laugh, and smile whenever certain events occur that make the character feel certain emotions. The plot may not be that unique, but I still like they gave so many refreshing vibes when it comes to college and their field of work. I also liked that they gave it a realistic touch to it. Comparing it to other Chinese dramas that gave me simply fluff, this drama actually made me root for the characters. The supporting characters were also very heartwarming to watch and I wasn’t expecting to cry over other supporting couples. Maybe I just like to cry. I was touched by how drama highlighted on family and friendship.

The cast was really lovable. It’s been such a very long time wherein I got to feel fluff or butterflies in my stomach when it comes to the leads of a Chinese drama and this drama gave it to me again! I was literally rooting for Zeyi and Yezi the whole time. Kris Fan and Cecilia Boey were definitely cute together. I liked how they were mature when it comes to serious topics but playful on the side. However, when they grew up... I can say that the outcome of their characters was pretty reasonable. It was obvious that so much had changed, but I was glad that they stuck to their characters' change in order for it to be realistic. The supporting cast was super cute as well! I loved how the drama didn’t neglect its supporting characters and gave each of them a story of their own. The acting was pretty simple and I think that it’s enough to execute the characters’ feelings.

The OST from the introduction and end of the drama was really beautiful but there are some songs that don’t really fit into some scenes. I was having a hard time getting emotionally immersed in some scenes because of the music.

Overall, if you want a drama that can make you get immersed with the simplicity of its plot and characters, this is the right one for you. I was slightly confused if the ending was real, but it somehow gave an open end for the viewers to think of. This drama will definitely make you reflect on life and what can possibly happen and change in the future.

Ahh another drama of Lee Jong Suk that has something to do with justice and doing what's right! It is something that I admire in him.

I can say that this is a drama that is such an eye-opener for me to the NEWS side of the Media Industry. I totally saw what people with power can do to manipulate everything that we see in the media in order for us to believe something that is false. Starting with the plot, I really admire that it actually roots from something for the leads or the main characters to solve. I also like the character development of the characters in the whole drama. Thinking that they were simple characters with such ambitions, you can see how they realized things that were causing them grief and pain.

Going to the characters, this is one of the Park Shin Hye characters that didn't annoy me at all. I'm glad that her character here as Choi In Ha was natural yet it gave a look at how strong she can be in order to do what's right. I don't have much to say about Lee Jong Suk's character or Dal Po because he portrayed it really well. He was someone funny, but he was also someone that knew how to be caring despite his clashing emotions between love and hate. Lee Jong Suk's acting did not disappoint! I'm glad Dal Po and In Ha were mature enough to solve problems and I like that they didn't drag the romance part of the drama too much.

I also loved Kim Young Kwang as Seo Bum Jo! Literally a different chaebol in your usual dramas. The only thing I didn't like about him was at the beginning of the drama, for some reason, what he did put me off. Lee Yoo Bi as Yoon Yoo is the cutest! My friends told me that they were annoyed at her for me, she isn't at all. She gives off such a light mood for her character that was somehow relatable at some point. Let me also applaud the veteran actors and the supporting casts in this drama. I would like to highlight Yoon Kyun Sang and Shin Jae Ha because seriously, they were both so good. Even with little screen-time, they never failed to capture my attention at how good they act and how they portrayed their characters. I was sympathetic and at the same time, I understand where the hard emotions were coming from.

I had a hunch that Every Singe Day was part of the OST in this drama and when I searched it up, I was right haha. I loved how the songs created by the band fits just right for the drama.

This drama had flaws, and I really think that despite the good character development, it's just hard for me to watch 20 episodes. But that's better than rushing and fitting all the consequences in 16 eps. Overall, I give this drama a 9.5/10.

P.S. More dramas for Shin Jae Ha pls!

I’m finally done with this amazing drama. Hell, the cast was gold, the setting was unique, and the plot was simple but then they made it more than just that.

The drama has no KISSING scenes but oh my gosh they got to pull off the chemistry of the leads and the side couples so good. Loudly crying face I heard that Kim Eun Sook had help in writing this drama and I truly applaud for the Mr. Sunshine crew and cast.

The OST was also amazing and it was so unique. I also liked how the drama didn’t just revolve around a love story but it also incorporated patriotism and nationalism. So many characters were beautifully flawed that’ll make you love them even more.

I’m so glad that they made this drama somehow empowering for women. I felt like any time, I could practice fencing or even holding a gun. They gave off such strong female characters that you’ll love and admire so much.

LET ME ALSO INCLUDE THE CINEMATOGRAPHY. Yes, it’s so beautiful. It’s like an overlapping scenery between the modern and the old age of Korea and it’s just so unique to my eyes.

The drama had flaws (since I don’t believe there’s a what you call a PERFECT drama since there’s always room for improvement) like it’s a slow pace, but I’m glad it improved as through the episodes.

This drama was so beautiful, once again. The ratings are well deserved. Watch this drama my dear moots, it’s beautifully painful but worth it.

I was looking for a Seo Ye Ji and a Woo Do Hwan drama and my friends told me that if I wanted a drama with a great plot and with acting-wise actors, I should watch Save Me. I'm definitely glad that I listened and watched this drama.

I wanna say that the rewatch value is low because it has so much sensitive content and it's not a drama you're looking for when you're stressed, because, in fact, this is the type of drama that will stress you out!

The plot was really interesting and dark. When I read the description before watching, the word "cult" was the final push before I decided to watch it. The drama was really creepy and it has a lot of content that might trigger one's mental health. As a romance-comedy enthusiast, I'm so glad that I enjoyed so much mystery and suspense thanks to this drama. The plot had an actual story in it and it definitely showed the good and bad characters. Somehow, I think that this whole drama is a reflection of what we have now. We believe in things and we choose to be ignorant of reality.

The cast was... WOW. All I can say that they were amazing. This is my first Seo Ye Ji drama, and I'm so impressed with her acting skills. She executed fear, hatred. and anger very well and all at the same time! Plus, her voice is just so new to me and beautiful. I loved Taecyeon and Woo Do Hwan, but Woo Do Hwan was the character I ended up focusing on more. His character was someone who was very righteous despite being gutsy, and he would definitely protect the people he loves. The supporting cast was amazing too but I would like to applaud for Jo Sung Ha's acting. His two-faced character made my blood boil and that's what signifies him as a great actor! Even by speaking calmly, he can make me mad.

The OST was okay, but I wished they could've used it in the actual scenes of the drama than hearing it by the end credits.

Overall, the plot was very good and the whole drama was really interesting! Every episode was a cliffhanger. It was kinda slow for me at first, but I liked how they slowly approached the climax with intensity to the end. This is my first OCN drama and I'm truly glad to say that they do make amazing crime thriller dramas! Highly recommended for people who like crime, thriller, and suspense genres.

I literally had high expectations for this drama. Reading the plot of the drama already gave me the vibe it'll be a bit confusing, however... I was expecting an impressive resolution for it especially for the other aspects of the drama but I didn't get any of it.

Let me start with the plot. I despite my low rating of the plot, I really thought that it was refreshing to have a drama that tackles parallel universes. However, I think that it was executed and written poorly. The drama focused on so many things at the same time and I think that I didn't have the time to immerse myself with the whole drama. I can say that the romance was really nice by the end, but I still couldn't feel any butterflies from the lead couple. I thought that it was too fast and thought that everything should've had more time. Even as an avid fan of Lee Min Ho, it's really not his best drama. I was so sad because I was rooting for more highlight or emphasis when it comes to the other characters of the drama because I saw that they literally had so much potential to develop. It was just so disappointing that most of the characters stagnant and the whole plot twist seemed obvious from the beginning.

When it comes to the cast and their acting, I thought that it was really good. Despite the bad writing, I really saw that the cast did their best in executing their characters. When it comes to the romance of the drama, I'm really glad that Lee Min Ho and Kim Go Eun didn't make the romance awkward by the end of the day, but as I said, their whole romance lacked so much backbone and it felt so rushed. I would really like to applaud for the other cast such as Woo Do Hwan, Kim Kyung Nam, Jung Eun Chae, and Lee Jung Jin. Despite the bad writing of the plot, they were still able to execute such lively characters that made me a lot more interested in them than the leads. Lee Jung Jin definitely gave off such a different and excellent vibe as the antagonist of the whole drama.

I think that the OST of the whole drama was alright. There are actually many songs that are good and I don't have much to say about it.

To summarize it all, I think that the whole drama tried to make an outcome of so many genres good, that it ended up lacking so many aspects that had to be emphasized such as the romance or the character development content of the other characters. I wouldn't mind seeing another drama wherein Kim Go Eun and Lee Min Ho as the pair because I definitely saw potential. However, despite the bad writing of the plot, the cast is GOLD. I just really hope that this drama wouldn't let the audience think that the cast is bad because they definitely did their part well. The drama had so much potential if the writing was done well and if everything was executed with an equal balance of the genres.
