Drama Rating: 5/10 Neck Score: A-
I never thought I'd live to see Yunho out acting anyone, but he was way better than our female lead in this. He wasn't amazing or anything, but he was decent. The show was just fluffy, but that is what we wanted. Nothing better than a web drama when you want fluffy, because they can't afford to waste time on anything, although they still managed to do it. We burned through the first like 12 episodes in one night, and let me tell you they were the best episodes, full of her falling in love with his face and cooking over and over, and him falling in love with the way she appreciated his food, over and over. He was on the teasey side, which was generally cute. He could also be a bit of a butt. She was generally smart and nice, although she was not great at acting. The flowerboy coworkers were the best. It was literally The Flowerboy (who is in all the flower boy dramas) and this tall oppa that we liked. He was smiley. Also, her younger brother is pretty cute and awesome too. Just saying. The second male lead was a cutie too, I called him Diddy Kitty (like the Diddy Kong of Kitty- aka Kim Jae Joong) because he looked a lot like Kitty. This, of course lead to much TVXQ jokes.
The last four episodes were needlessly dramatic and mopey and since we saved these for the next day, we were even less able to pay attention while the shiz hit the fan and the girl literally became the worst person in the world. She was even worse than the last minute bitca they added. So it ended. Like I said, fluff. But while it was mostly enjoyable, it had way more drama then say Wednesday at 3:30, which is a comparable web drama full of fluffy Beanie. So, this is still good if you want a bunch of cheesy fluff and happen to like Yunho (which I not so secretly do now, how did this happen!?!?!) but be warned, it is also ridiculous and mopey in spots.

Puck! 퍽! (2016) Korean
Lee Kwang Soo, Jung Hae Kyun, Son Soo Hyun, Kwak Dong Yeon, Jo Yoon Woo
Movie rating: 8/10 Neck score: A++
I can't even handle how much I loved Lee Kwang Soo in this. I hate sports movies, but I love Kwang Soo, so I watched it. He is so amazing. We have all seen him do mostly comedy, which he is brilliant at, so it's always so great to see him pull of serious so amazingly well. This was basically, in a nutshell: a loan shark lives for a season (like, the hockey season). Loan shark thug Kwang Soo beats up peeps. Almost kills someone. Has to be less violent when getting money back for his boss. Ends up joining a hockey team so they can win, so he can get the money. Evil dude tries to get rid of team. He finds team spirits, etc. It was basically the plot of every sports movie, but it was also about how sucky life is. He became a loan shark thug because his wife put him in debt. He kind of turned off his emotions, etc., to survive. The other team players also have their own problems. The end, like most Korean movies, is really open ended and non-conclusive about that part of the stuff. The life sucks stuff. But it also still has the miraculous sports movie ending, so it really made me like it better than most. Plus, Kwang Soo is amazing. There was one scene in particular that his neck was so sexy (in that red letterman jacket) that I couldn't handle it (fans self). Whew! So, it was way better than most sports movies. It made me cry, but that might just have been because Kwang Soo. But, yes, it was good.

96. Dating Agency: Cyrano 연애조작단; 시라노 (2013) Korean
Lee Jong Hyuk, Choi Sooyoung, Lee Chun Hee, Hong Jong Hyun, Jo Yoon Woo
Drama Rating: 5/10 Neck Score: A
This is the last of the current Flower Boy series, and probably the lamest of all of them. I still liked it, but as a Flower Boy drama it was a bit lame. Both lead mens were on the older side, with Jong Hyuk being quite old, but he's still pretty enough to be a flower man at least. It had a nice serial feel to it as the dating agency has a new case every few episodes. I'll admit that the only reason I broke down and watched it was because Lee Kwang Soo was one of the clients. I almost just watched episodes 6-8 for him, when I decided that I liked the main cast well enough to give it a chance. It was ok good, it just wasn't as gripping as some of them. I think the main story arc probably had the most holes and silly drama in it. Also, Master gave most people the second lead syndrome. I didn't love him as much as most people, but he was cooler than the main guy. I have no idea why she didn't fall in love with him instead. But he never had a chance, unlike some other peeps who have a chance and don't take it, or have a chance but don't deserve it. I think he was probably friends zones from moment one. Sad day. It get cray cray at the ending, but ends ok. My favorite episodes are 6-8. I was actually excited about those episodes. Other good cameos include Gong Yoo, Lee Chung Ah, and Choi Won Young.
