KOREAN DRAMAS

Drama	Grade	Comments
1% of Anything	A	Starts slow but becomes an entertaining and touching love story. Best of the sappy Kdramas.
9 End 2 Outs
Attic Cat	C+	Starts out original and entertaining but it ends super unsatisfying.
Bad Couple	A	Really funny situations with amusing characters and depth. One of the rare ones that made me lose sleep to watch.
Bad Family
Bright Girl's Success Story	B-	Starts entertaining, eventually drags w/happy but unsatisfying ending.
Coffee Prince	A	Funny and toughing with great female characters.
Crazy for You	B+	Touching and Sweet but sometimes too much pain to watch and should have ended at 14 instead of 16.
Dal Ja’s Spring	A+	More friend and job oriented then romance oriented. Aside from the last 3 episodes this may be my fav Kdrama. Funny and Original I loved everyone in it.
Exhibition of Fireworks
Fantasy Couple	A	Based on Overboard loosely and was quite entertaining. Rare Kdrama that starts and ends well.
Freeze	C	Starts slow and ends weird but overall a VERY unique romance with dramatic undertones. Sorta crazy though.
Friends 2002	D-	Goofy and predictable. A stereotypical drama spanning several years. I have every expectation this couple will break up soon.
Full House	B+	Drags out toward end and repetitive but entertaining and happy ending.
Get Karl, Oh Soo Jung!
Golden Bride	B	Draggy at times but over all a sweet and drama filled show with a nice ensemble cast.
Goodbye Solo
Goong/Princess Hours	A-	Starts light hearted and gets more and more serious, so the end drags. Happy though odd ending.
Goong S / Palace S
Great Inheritance
Hello My Teacher	B-	Typical and nothing special but Gong Yoo's smile makes it all worth while
Hello! Miss
In-Soon is Pretty	C+	Had high hopes because premise was so unique. Starts great and dissolves into typicalness, predictability, boringness and crazy coincidence. Big revelations in the end I guessed by Ep 3. I skimmed from Ep 8-12 and just wached end. Sooo disappointing because of high hopes but with low expectations mildly entertaining.
Lets Go To The Beach	B-	Typical Kdrama nothing unique and only mildly funny. Lots of hot men though.
Lovers in Paris
Lovers in Prague	B	Very Melodramatic and I felt really bad for the side characters. Has some cute funny moments but too sad to be a keeper.
Miss Kim Makes 1 Million	B	Entertaining. Good but not great. I enjoyed it but not a memeroable show.
My Girl	B+	Fun but too much self sacrifice
My Love Patzzi	B-	Cute and original for a K-drama. Quite liked it though nothing special.
My Lovely Sam-Soon	A+	Hilarious with totally original main character Sam-soon. Near perfect in every way.
One Fine Day
Only You	B+	Dramatic & Romantic w/ perfect male lead. No comedy & somewhat original.
Please Come Back, Soon-Ae
Prince's First Love	B	Funny but lead female is an idiot and waayyyy to much angstyness.
Queen of The Game
Rude Women
Ruler of Your Own World	FFF	So boring I couldn’t even bother with the last five episodes. Everyone cried every episode
Rules of Love	B	This show has some very unique qualities and funny moments, but the characters suffer too much for it to be a keeper.
Secret Lovers
Snow In August	C	Starts well but by episode 14 it had gone to light and funny to heavy and dreary. It was simply unwatchable. SOOOO Melodramtic. Skipped to end and show became god awful. Wish I had just stopped at the end of ep 14 and pretended it was over.
Sweet 18	A-	Funny and sweet. I was worried but really a perfect ending.
Thank You
War of Money	B	First half is funny. Second half is serious. I enjoyed it but I choose to imagine the last few minutes never happened.
What's up Fox?	A-	Unique premise and very funny. Has a lovable cast and good ending
Witch Amusement	C	Mildly amusing sometimes but ultimately boring. I skipped 6 middle episodes and the end was ridiculous yet typical.
Wonderful Life	A	Funny and touching with real emotional depth and maturing characters
