Mischievous Kiss

Just loved some of the supporting characters especially the mother played to perfection by Jung Hye-young. She is the perfect antidote to the evil mother in law found in many K dramas. This show is funny and I laughed many times every episode . Yes the heroine is old fashioned even by 2010 standards. She isn't smart and she loves her man no matter how he treats her. Still Jung So Min is cute as a puppy here. Feminists might not like this story. But there are some girls like that. So what's wrong with making a show about people like her? Fresh off Boys over Flowers, Kim Hyung Joon is quite good at playing the hero with brains but personality issues, High IQ and low EQ. The old sunbae is hilarious as is Bong Joon-gu. Fans of action star Lee Si Young get to see her in a feminine role. So many funny lines by all the different characters including the little brother. This show moves along from HS to college to marriage. It's a relaxing and happy show for a change without angst and frustration.

Gem indeed. The chemistry between the lead was superb. I love Jung So Min and Kim Hyun Joong. Bong Joon Gu was so lovable too. I love the ost and cinematography here. The storyline is good too.

Given that this was a 2010 drama it did exceed my expectations. Beautiful drama.

I'll rate this 9.1 because it's already 2022 but man, this was really really good for a 2010 drama.

Kim Hyun Joong and Jung So Min is a must.

Diamond.

9.1/10.

For me, if you've watched one, you've watched them all. Playfull kiss doesn't stray too much of the original story, though they did add some of the korean playfulness in it. There were some notes from the Princess's hour as well (see the stuffed bears in the end of the episodes). And it did start nicely, although, I must confess, I didn't expect much from the male lead. However, it was cute, even though the story was full of cliche and the leading lady was a silly, airheaded girl. But, the drama got boring halfway. It lost all the interesting chemistry that the couple had and the cat and dog game got tiring. So, overall, 5 out of 10 for playful kiss.

In their high school years, it was funny and cute. But proceeding onto their college years, you would think the female lead would mature. But instead, she was still a whinny, crying and a bit too clingy girl. Whilst the male lead was always trying to make her study or become a better person, it seems like her priority was to interfere in every aspect of the male lead life. I think it would've been a better plot line if she became independent, better herself and learned to be a better person. Then the male lead would've realized what a true gem she was.

This show radiates too much comfort for me, the characters are so cute, places amazing, Seung Jo's mother was one of my first women crushes when I was little :'') also didn't know this show has an anime version (shame) I will watch asap.
