City Hunter (Korean Drama, 5 DVD, 20 Episodes, English subtitles)

My absolute FAVORITE K-DRAMA! LMH is just sooooo very good in this role, besides being the absolute most gorgeous man EVER. Kim Na Na and Lee Yoon Sung are a perfect pairing. This show is an all-out Action Thriller with a kick-ass soundtrack to keep the suspense going. The love story is a perk that cannot be denied. LMH is able to get his character emotions to come thru - you will laugh & cry within each episode. I cannot recommend this drama enough! It hit all the needed elements for a action thriller/romance/intrigue drama.Buy It, you will NOTbe disappointed.

We will watch this story over and over again (the story gets 5 stars), the DVD, however, is disappointing. The aspect ratio is wrong - the sides of the picture are cut off, and the default voices are overdubbed Chinese rather than the original voices of the actors. Also, the product packing is cheap: there is simply a wrapper around a plain plastic case, and the CD's are loose in envelopes. There was no Blu-ray.I'm glad to have a copy since "City Hunter" is expiring from Netflix soon, but this was the only one in a format for U.S. machines available that I could find.

For a fun action K-drama, I recommend "City Hunter," a touching story presenting an excellent actor who's playing a boyish hero with a conscience, intelligence and values beyond his years. He tries to bring justice for a tragedy that occurred during his infancy. I found it entertaining and occasionally humorous though I am still watching the series. The entire drama consists of 20 episodes with good music on the fast-paced scenes. Enjoy.

Like all good K-Dramas, CITY HUNTER has gradually become an old friend to me over the last few months since I first started watching it on Netflix. You know it's gotten under your skin when you start feeling emotional over a few notes from the soundtrack.If I had to relate it to popular Western stories, I would say it's THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO meets THE BOURNE IDENTITY, with fun and creative fight scenes pumped up with a little bullet time reminsicent of THE MATRIX.Perhaps my favorite part of the drama is the chemistry between the male lead Yoon Sung (played by Lee Min Ho) and the female lead Kim Nana (played by Park Min Young). It's hard not to root for them.My ONLY reservation about the show worth mentioning is one already pointed out by other reviewers: the ending. I'm not going to spoil it except to say that it's way too rushed. It's not a BAD ending per se, because happy endings are given or at least implied for MOST of the main characters. The more I watch it, the more I get used to the ending, and I'm not nearly as irritated by it as I was at first. For me, the story is compelling enough to overcome this flaw in the works.We all know that melodrama can be done badly, but if you are at all susceptible to the charms of a GOOD melodrama, CITY HUNTER should be quite a treat for you, as it was for me.I highly recommend checking this out on Netflix or Hulu or one of the other major streaming providers and then, if you find yourself getting into it after a few episodes, rush back here and buy yourself a copy to support the talented people involved at every stage of the process and ensure we get to see more shows like this here on Western shores.Enjoy!

I first came across this series on netflix, where I became completely and utterly hooked. However half way through the series it was removed from instant Que. I do not like many TV shows in general so I was surprised at how amazing this series is. Filled with suspense at every turn, drama where it is meant to be, and romance to top it all off. The action however is only so-so, but that is not what you would watch this for. None the less it does not change how wonderfully made it is.I highly recommend this series to anyone, please do not let the subtitles scare you away. You would just be missing out on a great series.As far as other reviews go, some people were upset at the ending... I would have to disagree. Nothing is ever it is all a part of what makes this series so wonderful and I could not ask for anything better... Other than a second season ;-)

I've watched a lot of Kdramas and this is the first one I felt was worth buying. I spent bits and pieces of my weekend watching it in parts, fast forwarding to my favorite scenes, etc.I saw a bunch of reviews that cover the drama itself, and since I agree 100% with them I won't reiterate. This is an awesome show, but I suggest watching it on Hulu before going out and buying it.I was really disappointed in Amazon's packaging. Both DVD cases in the box arrived with a broken spine. I didn't want to have to deal with returns or claims or anything, so I fixed it with superglue, but it was definitely disappointing to pay that much for a show and not even get it shipped in a decent manner. It came in a padded envelope, while a Southpark season I ordered for my brother a week before came in a reinforced cardboard box. I hope this doesn't happen to everyone, and I hope they change their shipping method for this package.

Researched Korean culture after watching this and learned a lot. Thought all the actors did very well in depicting their parts and the music was very well placed to enhance the action and story. Great music. Characters were well developed and the plot didn't drag like it does with some of the other dramas with too many episodes. Don't case for violent action and there was too much of that and the ending, as others have said, left you wondering what they intended, but didn't seem like it was in line with how they had developed the characters relationship all the way through. Think they could have shown him continuing his vigilanty role with her help instead of a vague dumping of everyone but him. What was that all about. Ship everyone off - weird. Did not at all seem the logical conclusion to their story line.

Good story, great actors, memorable characters, action, romance and comedy in one what to want more? It can get sometimes too pompous but overall its great.

Super coffret complet avec sous titres bien traduits en français

Mon 1er drama et j'adore. Contente de l'avoir trouver en coffret dvd et Lee Min-Ho est super en justicier. Même si le drama n'a rien avoir avec le manga City Hunter, on retrouve quand même la trame de fond de l'oeuvre de Hojo.

"City hunter" est un très beau drama coréen. C'est un réel bonheur de retrouver Lee min ho dans un aussi bon rôle. Quant à l'actrice principale, Park Min-young, elle est vraiment adorable et forme avec Lee min hoo un duo parfait.J'ai reçu le coffret en parfait état. Les DVDs ne présentent aucune griffure et il y a bien les sous-titres en français. La qualité de l'image est également bien.Bref, rien à redire. Je ne regrette pas mon achat.

Offert en cadeau d'anniversaire à ma petite sœur qui en était ravie !!
