Full House

First of all this drama is very old. I first watched it when I was in school, a decade ago. When I watched it recently again, I realized the drama can be a bit outdated for the current audience. However, this is STILL a must watch for all new kdrama fans.

The story is simple. The cast is perfect. The main couple is adorable. The comedy is hilarious. Song Hyekyo is the cutest (plus she sings the OST), and Rain is HOT AF!

It's a light watch. There aren't major twists or mysteries involved. It's simply about two idiotic people with big attitudes who are unable to communicate their love in a proper way.

Just watch it! You'd see what I mean.

What can I say? it's one of my favorite movies. It has everything: love, romance, action, sorrow, and happiness. hero & heroine of this film have wonderful chemistry together, and it shows. It makes you feel like you want to become a better person, and not be so selfish, self-centered, and makes you realize that there more important things in life.

This movie is so indescribable and unique.I have seen it many times. I will admit that I am a hopeless romantic and I love to watch these types of movies.

I think that it is so romantic and so beautiful and i think that the movie was made very well

I'm only a third of the way through this series, but i can't help but comment, for i simply CANNOT get over how undeniably lovable this drama is.

I'm not the type of person who watches romance dramas as they just don't interest me, but i went against my better judgement simply because i'd heard all my friends raving about this show. And wow, was i ever impressed.

The story is essentially simple in its premise but has been made interesting by adding a mix of wit, slapstick humour and a great cast. I am not particularly a Rain fan and have never seen Song Hye-Kyo in anything previous to watching this show, but i was greatly impressed with their acting and the chemistry they shared.

I found myself from being completely non-plussed by the whole drama to start off with, to constantly giggling and squeeing at the television; a reaction that has rarely happened in all the years i've been watching TV dramas.

The only thing holding me back from giving it a 10/10 is the horrid wardrobe Yeong-Jae sports. I can't remember how many times i balked at the screen because he walked into the scene wearing yet another low-cut, cleavage revealing top and ridiculously mismatched pants, but i'm sure i would have made myself thoroughly hammered if i'd made a drinking game out of it ;D

Rain's man cleavage aside, this is a wonderful drama to watch; i'd definitely recommend it :)

Yes, you read that right!

If you have been feeling low and want to feel happy, go for this drama.

This was the first korean drama I watched and absolutely loved it.

Trust me, when I was watching this series, I had a happy feeling throughout. Yesss...this drama made me happy.

The ever smiling Han Ji Eun gave me a new outlook towards life and taught me to smile no matter what.

The cool and cute Young Jae makes you smile when he just can't express himself and ends up making us laugh again and again :D

Lee Young Jae's first love interest brings a lot of twist in the story.

Yu min's character is also well written. He's so perfect that you sometimes end up feeling that Ji Eun goes to him. :)

All in all..a must watch..you'll surely love it! ♡

Though I am an avid Korean film fan (mostly horror and action flicks the likes of Arahan, The Host, and the lovely My Sassy Girl), I have never watched its TV series because they tend to be too long and complicated. Full House (as well as other Korean TV series) became a hit in our country a few years back. I didn't mind it because I already have a big respect and fondness for its film industry.

What got me interested was the young pop idol Rain. After watching his documentary on Discovery channel, and being interested in his skills as a performer (not to mention he's so cute), I started looking for his first TV series because of the good reviews. So I got the complete 20 episodes of Full House. What started off as an interesting journey became marked with sleepless nights (trying to finish at least 3-5 episodes a day), laughter and giggles, sentimental sniffles, excitement, anxiety, you name it.

The story revolves around four main characters. A crazy but beautiful writer girl who owns a house and nothing more, and was duped by friends who sold her house without her knowledge; a movie actor (Rain) who buys the house and treats her like a maid in exchange for a place to stay; a fashion designer who is the superstar's best friend and secret love; and a rich, handsome producer who is interested in the writer girl. Eventually, the first two couple engage in a "business marriage contract" for publicity, while the last two tries to break them apart.

Granted, the show has its flaws in the script. Sometimes, actions tend to be exaggerated. I'd get confused and frustrated with the leading lady's inability to leave Rain when she is totally mistreated. The fashion designer lacks the charm to sweep both men off their feet and is portrayed as a weak character despite her successful career. The other leading man is totally gorgeous and I sometimes wish the writer ends up with him instead. The superstar is quite a bit infuriating with his childish, sneaky ways, his tantrums, his inability to acknowledge love, and his stubborn, rude ways. But when you see him shed a tear in pain, arrrgh. There goes my heart. I believe that's what the writer girl felt too. We just couldn't leave him alone.

Other flaws in the script? There are no violent kissing scenes. Not that I am complaining. From the very start, the show sweeps you off your feet with the development of each character, from the moment they all meet and weave in and out of each others' lives, and eventually becoming more involved with one another. It was one hell of a ride in the senses, to the very end when you would have wanted them to be more passionate physically.

Add to that other characters: the writer's two scheming friends who conned her; the superstar's mom, dad, grandma and levelheaded boss...all have interesting quirks that add to the spice of this romantic comedy.

I may be harping too much about this and leave you disappointed if you watch it. Well, if you're Asian like me, you will most likely relate to it more than the Westerners, who will see this as a bore (staying together in a house with such an explosive chemistry and nothing is ever happening will most likely raise your brows).

I do like the show, though, and it's two thumbs up for me, simply because it draws so much emotion from me (just as it did My Sassy Girl where the odd couple really made me laugh and cry in ways I didn't expect), and it leaves me wanting more. Well, I also did want it to end soon and happily.

I still hesitate to watch another Korean TV series (it drains the hell out of me trying to complete the show in one viewing). I will still prefer watching the movies. But for once, Full House has left me happy and dreaming, and craving for the innocent romance of younger days.
