Movie review: Train to Busan (2016)

Actors like Gong Yoo (Coffe Prince (2007)), Ma Dong Seok (38 Task Force (2016)), Choi Woo Shik (Ho Goo's Love (2015)) and Jung Yu Mi (Reply 1994 (2013)), are some of the cast that participate in this genius movie production. This is an 1 hr. and 58 min movie packed with tons of excitement.  Seok Woo promises his daughter to take her from Seoul to Busan with the KTX train (high-speed train) so she can meet her mother again. When a zombie-virus outbreak spreads through South Korea, the passengers on the train gets trapped and desperately tries to survive this horrendous apocalypse. ¨Train to Busan" is one of the most epic productions I have ever seen. This movie is packed with badass acting, and amazing special effects that leaves you speechless.  Zombies are one of the things I hate the most, just the thought of zombies freak me out, even though I know they are not real. However, ¨Train to Busan¨ is not your typical zombie movie. This movie is a mixture between ...

Drama Review: Please Come Back Mister (2016)

Please Come Back, Mister is a South Korean drama production, 16 episode long from SBS. Each episode has a standard duration of 60 minutes. This drama aired from February 24 to April 14 of 2016. Genres include comedy, melodrama, romance and supernatural.  Kim Yeong Soo is a hardworking man who works at Sunjin Department Store. Han Gi Tak is a chef at the restaurant "Knulp". Both these men suddenly dies, but returns to the living world with the intention of finding the reason as to why they died, and finishing unfinished business during their stay. Kim Young Soo is resurrected as the handsome Lee Hae Joon, and uses his name to his own advantages. Meanwhile Han Gi Tak hides under the name of Han Hong Nan, a beautiful girl with a fierce personality. This was my first drama starring Rain, and I have to say; I regret not doing it sooner. Rain has everything a poor fangirl could wish for, from the gorgeous smile to the witty behavior. This man got it all. Oh Yeon Seo porta...

Drama Review: 38 Task Force (2016)

Actors such as Ma Dong Seok (Bad Guys) and Seo In Guk (I Remember You) are to be seen in this amazing production from OCN.  A team from the tax department team up with a group of criminals in order to catch tax evaders with millions in taxes. The con artists help catch the "bad guys"  by doing what they do best;  fraud and deception.  The acting is defiantly top-class. It is taken to the point you start looking at the characters as someone taken from the "real world". Seo In Guk plays the role as Jung Do, a cunning con artist, convincingly well. Even though he is a clever criminal, you can't help but pity him.  Each episode is left with an cliffhanger that leaves you wanting more. This is one of those dramas were you find yourself sitting up all night watching all episodes in one sitting.  I rate this drama 10/10. This drama is packed with tons of exitement. If you love the crime and investigation genres, this is the perfect drama for y...

Jung Hwa, a visually impaired women, shows up one late night to watch television at his tollbooth. She has not been notified that her usual drama buddy, no longer works there. Chul Min falls in love with her generosity and a budding romance is born. If they only knew what was approaching. So Ji Sub plays the role as a man in love perfectly well. He makes you belive he actually is in love with Jung Hwa. From jealousy to pure love sickness  he's got it all. Han Hyo Joo is an exellent actress in this production. She plays the girl as the visually impaired women astonishing good. Her acting was so good, that a wawe of compassion literally washed over me. The camera crew has done an excellent job in this production with great detail to the smallest things. As quite a perfectionist myself, not...
