34. City Hunter 시티헌터 (2011) Korean

Lee Min Ho, Park Min Young, Kim Sang Joong, Chun Ho Jin

Drama Rating: 9/10      Neck Score: A

It was just stubbornness that kept me from watching this show earlier, since it kept getting recommended to me, but it's seriously really, really good, so I recommend that you don't need to do that, but watch this one right away.  It's a really good blend between action/revenge thriller, comedy, and romance- with emphasis on the action and revenge of course.  I still think this is Lee Min Ho's best role ever.  He plays the boy forced into revenge and seriousness when he just wants to love and have fun so very well.  Also, I love Kim Sang Joong.  He is so bad-a.  He's cool.  There are lots of good plot twists, lots of good action, good comedic timing, and even a creepy hot hit man that you shouldn't be attracted to, but kinda are.  Also the imagery is really good.  One note.  Please watch this one before you watch Shining Inheritance (if you have any plans to watch Shining Inheritance) so that you wont hate his mom in this one, as you will hate her in Shining Inheritance.
