Just finished Reply 1994 today. I would rate Reply 1997 and Reply 1994 the same but I'd still prefer Reply 97. For me:

Reply 97: early eps = very good / mid eps = very good / last eps = good (but kinda no climax point or needed some more minutes to close some things up)

Reply 94: early eps = average (story was pretty slow and not that exciting) / mid eps = good / last eps = very good (this was the climax for esp on the love story and nostalgia bombs)

94 scenes was really well done, And the secondary casts story lines were great too. Also I can relate a lot on their lives because probably I experienced living in a boarding house like that when I was in college kk

. One of the best part in the show , it gives you a feeling that as if you had lived with them throughout their story (probably because I exp that kind of life).

Gonna start on Doctor Stranger and You're All Surrounded next week. I hope it is good.

I love fast paced Rom-com-dramedies to death and the first two episodes are hilarious in my opinion. I like the acting too, knew Jung Eun-Ji would deliver but I didn't know about Ji Hyun-Woo - he was also great

Highly appreciate. The only thing can be how you approach listening to trot. Didn't know how it sounded before, but I'm warming up to it i guess.
Greatly recommended, along with High School King of Savvy.

Seems alright. Some cheesy comedy, a bit of sad, and the usual guy and girl hate each other and by some totally unbelievable turn of events are forced to spend time with each other and eventually kiss and stuff. You know, pretty standard kdrama stuff.

I will be watching it.

So far, enjoying Trot Lovers and King of High School. I guess after the serious drama like Golden Cross, I want something funny. Though watching Trot Lovers because of Eun-Ji, and she is great in the drama!

Has anyone watched Sang-Doo! Let's go to school! ? I loved it up until the end where the ending felt rushed and somewhat out of place. Your thoughts?

Ive seen it about 8-10 years ago (damn that time flies, so i dont remember exactly) the only thing i remember is i liked it because it was so different from western dramas - it was one of the first kdramas ive seen and it had Gong Hyo Jin in it. I think drama suffered from the same thing as so many other kdramas - poor ending, either rushed or poorly thought out.

This syndrome is especially surprising since, from what I understad, K-dramas production is conducted differently that in the West, in a sense thay they are entirely scripted in pre-production with a set amount of episodes in mind. You would think that that way they have time to put effort into structuring their story well :/
