The first 30min was a bit too slow, I almost lost patience. After that, the story move on nicely and is quite interesting. The scenery is very good. The preview of eps. 3 show Mont St Michel, very excited.

its interesting to watch Yonghwa in his role. He is funny and romantic as Maru
November 4th, 2017 at 11:07 am
I like this drama, the story is interesting.. The main lead is so cute and funny as well. 😍😍😍
November 13th, 2017 at 1:48 pm
Watching episode 1 now. OMG so boring. Too slow. Like what the earlier reviewer said.. the first 30 mins in excruciatingly slow and annoying that it wears on your patience and give up. Why drag the show like that!

We travel all over Europe but never seen France because my husband did not like to visit France “the American don’t like France”.
I have to say that this drama light a spark in me giving me the desire to see France.
The France government should give you a good recognition for this drama.

Short but nice drama. I felt like I was part of the tour. Every casts have different personalities. Recommended to watch.
November 20th, 2017 at 12:15 am
The pace of this drama is a little bit slow. I think this drama is more suitable for adults than teenagers. It is such a good show with the French locations, it went beyond the typical Paris locations. When I watch this drama, I feel like go to a different part of the world. You don’t need to like the story, just watch and enjoy the “tour” by itself is worth watching (the stories are pretty good too).

The 1st episode is slow, doing background and character development, but after that from episode 2 the pace picks up and it gets better with each episode. Loved this drama! One of the best K-dramas I’ve watched this year – a real gem. You can feel the chemistry between the 2 leads (Jung Yong Hwa and lee Yeon Hee). Their kiss scenes are hot. The supporting cast, directing, writing and cinematography are really good. Add a good score and catchy OSTs plus the beauty of France – you can’t lose!

Lovely story and dialogue, very fresh and beautiful when you watch the drama. You won’t expect such story development, with some funny elements, the whole production team really puts good effort in it. It is a breakthrough for Yong Hwa, he acts excellent, handsome and lovely. The production team knows how to catch his fans very well. I love it. Don’t miss it!

I read the casts, but when I watch first episode, I just feel like asking something. It’s keep echoing in my mind = isn’t the female lead look like Shin Se Kyung? is she her twin sister, or maybe her cousin?
why she keep remembering her me with Shin Se Kyung?

the title seems to be missing a word to make it more apt as to what the series is all about. i did enjoy all the sceneries, as if i were part of the tour. glad strained relationships of the characters are resolved. it’s a good watch.

Un hermoso k drama Ojalá gane
December 2nd, 2017 at 10:43 pm
The Package – this drama is nice. I am glad to know about this drama after viewers vote. Now I am voting too. 😛
Really hope it will become Number 1 drama for 2017
December 7th, 2017 at 8:33 am
This movie is amazingly low quality and I do not recommend viewing it for anyone!
December 11th, 2017 at 4:59 pm
Its a good drama. I get to know this drama through viewers’ vote, so far its Number 1 drama for 2017 voting. Glad that I watch it. 😛
December 11th, 2017 at 10:47 pm
it’s still early but this series is leading in this web site’s polls.
December 14th, 2017 at 11:32 pm
I started watching the first episode and i like it immediately. This drama reminds me a lot like those jdrama which have slice of life feel that most trendy kdrama is lacking of. At the end of the drama, I love everyone on the tour and I want more..wish the drama coupd have been 16episodes.
One thing I was surprised by this drama is that i never expect that the main leads Jung Yonghwa & LeeYeonhee have superb chemistry together especially the kissing scenes. Literally the best kdrama kiss I’ve ever watched.
Also the female lead actress, Lee Yeon Hee was recently appointed as the ambasador for France Tourism for Korea on Dec13th. Really proud of her since she’s really passionate about her role and she love Paris a lot. 🙂

I do not understand why the vote for this drama is top at the moment. Is it because of the actor? As for me I do not really like this drama comparing to while you were sleeping. The ending isn’t that great either. On the whole it is not my liking especially the storyline , kind of boring all the way. Sorry to say if I were to vote I will not vote for this drama

If you are looking for a genuine, authentic and warm drama, then this drama is suitable for you. For those who are thinking this drama is boring, it is fine actually, as everyone has their own opinion in what genre of dramas you wanted to watch. You can see, it is about a Korean tour package in France, so it will be full about the tour strory. One of the things that set in this drama apart from the others was how it taught us life lesson through different of relationship.
You can find relastionship in between : a father and daughter, two people who are hoping to engaged, an older married couple, brother and sister and last but not least a new found love couple who are still discovery who they are, what is love and trust.
I enjoyed so much about this drama as every character tells their own story, their point of view in the middle of the tour. I loved to hear and learn how are the others perception of story. First, they came as a strangers, hating each other, but then became a close family in the end. I find this drama is cute and unique, even I learn so many things in this drama about life lesson in relationship. This drama has the right amount of comedy, romance and advanture.
Afterall, this is all of my opinion about this drama
January 5th, 2018 at 5:48 pm
I started watching this drama last night. I already watched 3 episodes, as of now it’s worth watching.
January 7th, 2018 at 12:32 am

February 20th, 2018 at 4:15 am

The Package is such a lovely drama! Very warm and thoughtful with wonderful characters. There’s romance, friendship, and family. I felt like I was part of the tour and really connected with everyone. Fantastic drama!
