Castaway Diva

Maybe it's because it is the same actress or production company, but it carries some of the Extraordinary Attorney Woo emotional appeal and vibe.

It starts off a bit slow to establish the basic premise which is, to be honest, like a lot of k-dramas, a bit far-fetched, However, if you can live with the premise, you still get some of the feel-good vibes from Extraordinary Attorney Woo as already mentioned.

So definitely an above-average, feel-good, somewhat inspirational k-drama with a bit of an unbelievable premise.

But until you wait for Extraordinary Attorney Woo Season 2 if ever, this hopefully will help lessen the wait.

I just finished watching Castaway Diva and thoroughly enjoyed it. I was especially moved by the performances of Park Eun Bin, Cha Hak Yeon, Chae Jong Hyeop and especially Moon Woo Jin as young Jung Ki Ho. Though the show had some dark moments with vivid portrayals of child abuse, the overall theme was of resilience and hope. The actors were first rate and I was awed again by the talent of Park Eun Bin. She also has a wonderful singing voice. I would like to see her and Cha Hak Yeon in more roles as I think they are very talented actors who become immersed in their parts. I think Kdramas are getting better all the time with quality acting and wonderful and imaginative stories.

As a typical western, and clearly I am reflecting only my point of view, I'm having a hard time keeping track of the Korean names along with the corresponding faces, in most of the kdrama series I am watching..., however, still, I have to say, kdrama is so unique, it covers so many aspects of our universe secrets in terms of love, relationships, mystery, soul purpose, the beyond, life mission, people to people interaction, and in short, it touches and manages to play our souls cords, as if we were an instrument used by a very skilled artist. This series embodies everything mentioned above, as well as a lot of numerous other kdrama series I have binged recently, and the conclusion is, kdrama has a way of reflecting the universe rules and roles for the individual person, which can be described as a devine intervention!!!

This goes not only for this series, but for most of the kdramas series that are out there..., which I strongly suggest all should watch, if the beyond is something you are interested in...

There are scenes that remind me of little mermaid. The Kdrama is beautiful and the story is new to me. You may have seen something like it, but I don't. I don't know how it is classified as a comedy .because I cried a lot . I recommend everyone to watch it, and the ost is amazing, and the acting is great. The first episode did not disappoint me at all. In fact, I liked it very much. The rest of the episodes make you feel excited, especially the end of each episode. I am looking forward to the next episodes. I wish if they would Downloading all the episodes in one day, because I can't wait to watch the rest of the episodes.

This drama was a very interesting experience for me.

Was inspiring, emotional, impactful...

It will move your soul and will make you cry and smile. It will show you the darkest sides of human nature but will be hopeful and will show you the brightest ones as well.

The plots weren't all that, and were a bit lacking somehow but the drama shines through an extraordinary and uplifting script and amazing original soundtrack ( take a moment and read each of the lyrics as well).

The acting of the cast was magnificent, generally the chemistry was great, except for the main couple unfortunately, which I thought they acted more like friends than lovers.

I loved the first few episodes with the emotional and gripping backstory and the two young main leads ( it's shocking how Moon Woo Jin is growing up so much already)

Park Eun Bin owns this unique character showing the wide range of her abilities as an actress playing it and how impressive it is that she is the one actually singing all the songs in the series, what a voice, what a performance.

The acting of Chae Jong Hyeop was great and loved him in a more dramatic role for a change as well, he has the capability of acting by being quiet and just gesturing and gazing, he is such an expressive actor, can't wait what comes next.

If im not giving a higher score is because I believe the series has added too many subplots and elements to the mix that has made it a bit chaotic and didn't leave enough room for some of the main stories to be properly developed. There's a lot of potential in a few storylines that were left almost untouched and that was very frustrating.

Overall it is still a very enjoyable series to watch, with very different genres, no predictable plots or cliches, a lot of good music and a satisfying ending. So watch it, you won't regret it.
