Pinocchio (2014–2015)

A roller coaster of emotions

[9/10 · 13 April 2015]

This is one of the best K-dramas I've seen so far. Most of the summaries are not very good, but it's hard to tell what it is about without giving any spoilers. But I'll say that it's not an usual cliché drama with a lot of romance and no real plot. The story here is very intense and well written till the end. It's about death, revenge, mystery,... But there's obviously romance too, like in all k- drama there's a love/hate kinda story that will make you giggle. The actors are great, you can't expect something else with Park shin-hye and Lee jong-suk, they are awesome. What I mostly liked about this drama besides all of what I've said is that it's pretty mature without being TOO serious and depressive, it still has humor. You will cry and you will laugh, it's a emotional roller coaster and I suggest it to everyone!

Mischievous Kiss (2010)

Sweet love story !

[8/10 · 28 June 2014]

I'm not a big fan of k-dramas, it's actually the first one I saw, and I felt in love...The story is simple, it's about a teenage girl who is in love with the most popular guy in school and so when she confesses her feelings he rejects her, but then her house is destroyed and she moves with his dad in his friend's house, and guess who's father he is? Predictable but still interesting. I loved the long way they both had to finally realize their feelings(especially for the guy who during a very long time "hates" her). It's a some sort of love/hate relationship. The acting is not great but OK, the two main actors have a good chemistry and it's always nice to look at them. It's a lovely and funny story about a conquest of the heart of the coldest guy even after multiple rejections. I think that if you're a romantic and want to watch something cute, this drama is for you!

Oz (1997–2003)

One of the best show ever

[9/10 · 13 March 2014]

I just finished it and I must say it's a very good show, I was hooked by the first episode. It's well acted and written, even if the last few seasons weren't that good but still better than a lot of shows that are on air right now. There's a lot of nudity, sexual contents, violence but it doesn't matter this show totally worth to be seen. It has a lot of characters and all of them have their own story and sometimes they interact with each other. The plot explore a lot of aspects of the life in prison and just life, and in a very realistic way. Personally I loved Beecher's storyline, I think it has the character development and it's the easiest to follow because you can identify with him more or less. Also I liked the presence of Augustus hill who tell us with his metaphors and a philosophic and sarcastic way what's going on in the episode.

If you haven't seen it yet and if you like TV shows like "The wire" , "prison break" and almost any HBO shows then you should definitely check this one.
