Nail Shop Paris Review

                Hey it’s Ms. Lee Min Ho; todays review is going to be about a Korean drama that just came out this year. It was a very different drama from the rest I have seen but I enjoyed it a lot but it did have some very odd parts. The drama is called Nail Shop Paris it came out on May 3, 2013 and ended on June 28, 2013. It has 10 episodes in total and it is more than 50 minutes long.  The show had some very emotional /serious parts but some very fantasy like parts.

                Hong Yeo-Joo writes novels but lately she hasn’t been able to write good novels. She is heading home then noticed someone saving a person; his name is Alex then she decides to follow him. She noticed that he worked at a nail shop with only guys. She decides to become an intern but the only way she could become an intern is by dressing up as a guy. She asks her best friend to help her and goes to the shop the next day and got hired. Nobody noticed that she was a girl but she is their only for one reason to follow Alex and to make a story out of his life. But then she starts getting feelings towards him and someone ends up finding out that she is a girl. She also thinks that her boss is a gumiho which is a nine tail fox.

                People always like or hate this drama because the whole plot of the drama is very odd. It’s not odd because  it’s a gender bender that’s the normal part of the drama but I felt adding the gumiho thing to it kind of messed the drama up. It was just unnecessary to have that pa

rt in the drama it made it seem more like a fairy tale and you couldn’t really take the drama serious, even if it did have serious parts. Let’s, first start off with the main actress which Is Park Gyulee who plays Hong Yeo-Joo she is part of the kpop group Kara. I felt that her acting was good I wouldn’t say great there weren’t any parts that really blew me away. The acting of the whole cast was just pretty normal. I really liked the character Kay played by Song Jae-Rim because he first acts like a cold-hearted jerk but then he is able to show his feelings and show that he really does care. I got kind of irritated with Alex played by Jun Ji-Hoo because he just realized his feelings to late and I didn’t understand why he started liking her in the first place because he never really got to close to her. But there were some good parts of the drama. Like the first episode when a poor man enters the salon with his wife ; he makes her get a manicure to make her feel pretty and happy. The man starts telling Alex his story and says that the manicure is like the wedding ring that he was never able to give her. It just made me cry to so much it was such a great start for the drama and it was really touching. There was another episode in which this old couple can’t be together because the kids of the lady don’t want them together and what makes it worse is that she is soon to die. So the nail salon workers decided to help them. It was such an adorable episode and it makes you realize that you could love someone and have such a beautiful romance no matter what age you are. The drama had these very great parts of it but the only problem was the nine tall fox part which just made the drama seems like a fantasy which it wasn’t really supposed to be a fantasy. But ignoring that part, overall the drama was really good and you got to connect with some of the stories that were told through this show.

                I give the drama a 6.7 monohorns out of 10 monohorns because as I have said before the nine tell fox part ruined the drama. It was something that didn’t need to be added to it. But, overall the drama had many serious parts to it and very emotional parts to it as well. If you want to see a gender bender drama with some seriousness in it but some fantasy as well this is it.
