As children, Park Hoon and his father were kidnapped and taken to North Korea. He grew up there, learning to be a doctor like his father. When Park Hoon escapes back to South Korea and starts working at a prestigious hospital, he makes it his goal to earn enough money to return to North Korea and save his true love. He will do anything to find her, but then he meets a mysterious woman who looks exactly like his beloved.

The plot was good. The drama started well and had huge potential. She just pulled too hard in the middle. For me personally, the plot was just super dynamic from the very beginning. There was so much to do that I couldn't get into the plot much. It's a shame because the actors in this drama were excellently cast. I just didn't like the performance.

The romantic aspect of this drama was very funny and interesting. The whole love triangle was predictable, to say the least.

Pinocchio

Title: Pinocchio

Release year: 2014

Number of episodes: 20

Series duration: 60 min.

Genres: Detective, Romance

Country: South Korea

Pinocchio is a Korean drama that focuses on the broadcast news industry and the effect a news channel can have depending on how it portrays something in a good or bad light. The corollary of this is that any news reporter can either make a person look like a hero or, conversely, like a devil.

Pinocchio's stars are Lee Jong Suk as Choi Dal Pyo and Park Shin Hye as Choi In Ha. The series introduces us to young journalists who strive to convey the truth. The plot of this story, and the reason it is called Pinocchio, is because there are people in this world with Pinocchio syndrome. These people can't lie because every time they do, they hiccup. Choi In Ha suffers from this very syndrome, and it makes viewers watch with interest how she, as a reporter who can only tell the truth, will get out of various situations.

In the drama, I liked the well thought out and emotionally strong plot. I also liked the great soundtrack, which sets a great tone for the drama and never fails to keep you on your toes. In the game of actors, every emotion is conveyed very clearly, even, one might say, perfectly. For this I want to shake hands with the actors and just say "Thank you!" for their acting skills and conveyed emotions.

Lee Jong Suk, whose films are popular today, was interested in painting as a child, was seriously fond of playing baduk (a Korean variety of chess). The boy also played the piano. However, in his youthful years, the guy left these classes in the past, signing up for taekwondo. Lee Jong came to this decision at the insistence of a strict father, who considered the passion for creativity inappropriate for a man.

While in high school, Lee Jong Suk decided to audition for a popular TV show. Filming in the program subsequently allowed the young artist, who had an extremely attractive appearance, to attract the attention of reputable clothing manufacturers. Thus, the guy also took place in the modeling field, becoming the youngest face of the famous Seoul Collection company.
