My Love From the Star

9/10 is my rating. This is a 2013/2014 South Korean Drama Spanning 21 episodes (~60 minutes/episode). Jun Ji-Hyun plays the female lead, Cheon Song-Yi, a top Korean starlet who is used to having every guy fall at her feet and generally getting her own way.  She moves in next to a guy, Do Min-Joon (played by Kim Soo-Hyun), who, if anything, finds Cheon Song-Yi annoying in her behavior.  Which naturally drives her crazy and makes her determined to win him over. 

Spoiler 🚨 I was a little reluctant on this one.  An Alien I thought.  What like ET?  No, more like Superman.  This has romance, of course, but it also has that supernatural element, along with a love triangle, a mystery and even a serial killer.  I found this SO interesting and entertaining.  22 episodes is more than some but I was so entertained that it didn’t seem like many.  I loved the two leads they looked so beautiful together.  And you could really see how each offset the other.  There was even an ET joke so a nod at that movie.  I can see why it consistently rates high.  It isn’t silly because of the alien element – just intriguing.  I liked it a lot I wish it had ended a bit different but would still have watched it and would recommend it because it ended okay and was so enjoyable to watch.
