Run On

A runner takes down some bullies in the track team and gets disqualified so becomes a trainer instead. He falls for a subtitle writer / interpreter. Not a lot happens. There is a rather out of place opposition from his father which is strange since he isn't that big of a deal anyway. Her work on the film set is fairly interesting. This series is gentle and laid back. The characters are nice and level headed and hardly ever raise their voices and come across as being insipid at times. The story is the opposite of melodramatic to the point of being dull in parts. Sometimes they even show mundane things like doing laundry and grocery shopping. Shin Se Kyung is sweet and demure and speaks English well when she interprets. The funniest part is when she fought with a foreign director. Im Si Wan looks angelic and kind. The secondary couple an agent and an artist is a little unnecessary. And I don't get their problem. If you want a simpler laid back series then this is okay.

I'm really not a huge fan of stereotypical korean romance dramas cause I find them kinda corny and shallow but this drama is a masterpiece. From the acting to the story line and the individual characters there's nothing I can complain about. It's so refreshing to see healthy non-toxic relationships portrayed in a drama, they're mature, realistic and makes you feel like you're watching something genuine. All of the characters even the supporting cast are so complex and interesting and they each have their own uniqueness. This is truly one of my all time favorite dramas I laughed and cried so much, I hope everyone gives it a watch!

I am so in love with this show! I love the uniqueness of script, well written! Every time you watch an episode, you receive a heartfelt, sincere, warm, and romantic excitement as the story progresses. The chemistry between the 4 lead actors is overflowing, the OST's are wonderful. It's like a dreamy, lovely, relaxing, heart fluttering journey for us because the romance is there even without forcing it, they are charming. For me, it is a golden k-drama that is always worth rewatching.

Everything about this k-drama is perfect; the dialogues, the characters, the actors and the story! We can finally start 2021 with such a good drama! Watch it on Netflix now!

Bravo!

Another drama i kept avoiding because of the rather boring narrative but i was pleasantly surprised, Run on is a very sweet romance drama starring Siwan and Shin Se-kyung. Siwan portraying a national athlete Ki Seon-gyeom stands up to bullying and violent practices between athletes and for that he is suspended from the team. Shin Se-kyung as an interpreter Oh Mi-joo meets Seon-gyeom as she is hired to translate for him. If course, they fall for each other. There are number of things i would like to highlight on this drama. First the character of Ki Seon-gyeom, a perfect athlete, incredibly high sense for integrity and fair play, stands up and looks out for his younger fellows. Innocent and in a good way, dumb. Siwan's voice is incredibly sweet, its tone and cadence was very pleasant to listen to. Another thing worth mentioning was the love story of the supporting roles, Seo Dan-ah and Lee Young-hwa. I dare to say that the dynamic and chemistry between those 2 were stronger than betwen the main leads.. and finally, in this drama you wont need to watch the annoying bickering and ridiculous characters that are present in every single kdrama, in Run on they are all more less normal ;) Overall very sweet slow burning romance, very good performance by all actors.

So it started off nicely and then honestly actress portraying Dan Oh caught my eye. Loved her chemistry with the second lead actor but I thought she was very young and there u go..Typical korean flawless beauty! How can someone look so effortlessly beautiful at 30? Then I found out she was actually a member of girls generation, one of the most popular girl band in Korea whose name u hv probably heard of if u r into k pop! Is there really something that korean ppl can't do? Way to go versatility.
