Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge

From Japanese manga to anime to drama. This series has really gone a long way and it's pretty much obvious why. Although I expected more from the casts who portrayed Kyohei and Sunako at the beginning, the roles were well delivered by the whole lead casts throughout. Most of the scenes are also more intense than the original series particularly the ending.

The scenes are a little cartoony and some of it are too impossible to happen but the dialogue and thoughts are realistic. The experiences and complexes of the characters are exaggerated as the original series but the solutions are given in a typical manner everyone can relate to.

Other than being funny, you can learn a lot form it. All in all, I enjoyed the drama as much as I enjoyed the original series.

I am Legend

It made me wonder why they came-up with the title and in my opinion, I think it dates back to the ajhummas high school years of dreaming to be a popular band which materialized years after when most of them are settled.

The title and the thought of your mother playing in a band may be boring and ridiculous but don't be mislead. For those people out there who felt stuck, unsuccessful, not contented or someone who just needs to get back on track with all the responsibilities of being an ahjumma, this show is definitely for you.

Some of the scenes  may be too mellow dramatic to start your day but if you would just close your eyes and listen to their performance, you wouldn't expect that they're suppose to be ahjummas. This show rocks more than a younger band group can!

The younger viewers may become disappointed with the ending but I would say this really gives a new meaning to the word "success" and "happiness" in the most motherly and friendly way.

Princess Prosecutor

Another one of a kind drama. Not really light and funny like the others but I'd say it's intellectually humorous. They have more to offer than the typical even their confusing love story have an unsolved mystery that progresses with one of the cases they're trying to solve.


The legal department's love story maybe boring because lawyers are usually formal and uptight but having Ma Hye Ri as a prosecutor can turn a courtroom hearing to an entertainment and all she can say is "It's my way of communicating to the victim".


You'll find yourself drawing your own conclusions in every case they handle and that gives the feeling of the need to watch the next episode.


Oh, yes... I almost forgot Seo In Woo. He always rescue her from trouble. He's like always there for her, you can hardly see where he's coming from... Find out his motives and you'll be surprised how it turned out.
