In their school they are known as the group nobody should mess with because they wont hesitate kicking your ass. When Byung Hee, the leader of the group, finds out his muse, a girl he has fallen for, goes to the school he decides that they should transfer anyway. However it doesnt go as easy as they might have thought. At the school they meet their rival, another band called Strawberry Fields. Now it all starts, the fight for their friendship and passion for playing music.

Writing review for this drama is so extremely hard because I really dont want to ruin anything for you guys!.
This drama is my kind of drama. Period. Lol.. It's got it all I love, the delinquents, the fights, the friendship and all !At first I really didnt know whether to love or hate this drama. I seriously cried after the first two episodes and didnt want to watch anymore. But I couldnt not watch it. The characters are great, the story is great, I even loved the ending! I really couldnt figure out a happy ending because it was all so sad but I loved it. One weird thing is that it somehow felt like a low-budget drama(technically). I dont know why, it just seemed that way, maybe its just me, lets see what Bunji thinks. It wasnt too long either, it reminded me of japanese drama a bit, maybe because the episodes were same length. Anyway I cant write more without spoiling. I extremely major recommend this one if you like delinquent dramas :D

☆☆☆☆½ / 4.5 out of 5 stars

Bunji's Verdict
This could have been an amazing drama, but of course they had to add a stuffy romance in it. I’m seriously annoyed with these love stories, like since when do kids think so deeply about stuff, omg… Maybe that’s why they chose such that way, but really I’m sick of these stupid “have to” separations. Even though I get WHY they split, I don’t get WHY had to announce it… Eish, and continuously those 2 boys loving one girl, stuffy!
Anyways, this is heartbreaking, heck GROUNDBREAKING actually, except for that typical romance part. I honestly believe it could have been more amazing if it wasn’t such a big part of the drama, just added a bit more, relations either with family or the guys, anything could have beaten it. Of course they should be romance, I’m not saying otherwise, but too much man, just too much…
Still my rating is focused on the overall drama, and that cool ending, any other ending would’ve just been too… Hollywood…

A millionaire’s first love Review

Title: A millionaire's first love
Genre: Romance
Origin: Korea
Release date: 9 February 2006
Cast: Hyun Bin, Lee Yeon Hee

Kang Jae-kyung is a rich bad boy that got no respect towards anybody and believes that the world is controlled by money. He is an orphan and so he has been taken care of by his grandfather who dies and so when he turns 18 he thinks that he will inherit everything his grandfather owned. But it aint gonna happen. The grandfather requested that for x to inherit everything he has to move to and little town/village and graduate high school there. So he moves there and he meets and old man and a girl who he finds out is also an orphan. He slowly falls in love with the girl but finds out that she is sick. She has a weak heart and doesn’t have long to live. He also finds out something from his past. He remembers a few things. Like the time when his parents died and their orphanage and he also remembers a promise he made with the girl. But he cant really do anything because there is no cure to the girls sickness so he just stays by her side all the time.

I have tried to watch this movie at least 5 times. But every time I thought it was boring. But this time I guess I was just in a mood for this kind of movie. It got really emotional especially at the ending. And again it was this rich guy meeting a poor girl Pheew. But it was alright even though the story was typical. , Okay I’ve been really stupid. Its been 24 hours since I watched the movie so I cant really find words.. what to say. Omg im so stupid. I should do as Bunji. She smart. Anyway.

☆☆☆ / 3 out of 5 stars.

Bunji's Review:
I remember this movie being the only Korean movie I liked, but I couldn’t remember why. So I watched it again, and I now remember... This is by far the best Korean movie made, and I’ve not watched that many, but from those I’ve watched, this one is waaay better.
The couple didn’t have the BEST chemistry (with some couples, they just have to look at each other and you feel it: Yamapi & Keiko, Eita & Juri, Van Ness & Andy An, Mao & Matsujun and not to forget Mike He & Rainie Yang) but this couple didn’t have it. In this drama the dialogues, the storyline and the screenplay was what made it so wonderful. And the best thing about it, no supporting actor or actress making live miserable for the leading actors. Splendid! I recommend this, 100%!

☆☆☆☆/ 4 out of 5 stars.
