For those who want to feel anger while being charmed by Lee Jung Suk att his cutest

This is a drama that will have you saying wtf and how can they be so stupid and how the h*** is that person still alive??? So if you are looking for something that makes any sense please look somewhere else… While watching this drama I kept on wanting to yell at the people (mostly men) in this series, what the f**** is wrong with you!!! Just admit to your wrong doings, learn from your mistakes, apologies and move on with your lives/ just move out of the way and let them do their job… So I guess this is one of those dramas that truly brings out your inner anger, so if you are in the mood to get angry, this is definitely the drama for you!

I honestly do not know if it is the female leads acting, dialog, character or all of the above that where really really bad, but bad was it… And no matter what was behind it, she was not the least bit lovable and probably had more chemistry (if any) with the villain then the male lead, and considering the male lead is Cutie Lee (Lee Jong Suk) that should otherwise be impossible but look we found someone to fit that description. I´m honestly impressed over this, so it may actually have been intentional if so why?

While the first female lead is boring, the second female leas is bubbling with emotions, she is sweet, loving and cooperative and has this amazing chemistry with Cutie Lee and is truly enjoyable to watch.

The second male lead fits the part perfectly he has great character growth but is definitely one of the people who frustrated me the most and brought out my inner anger.

Cutie Lee (Lee Jong Suk) has an adorable character, he is bad ass, sweet, funny and really shows cutie Lee at his sweetest, well styled, well smiled and just completely charming in every single way. He is what makes this drama not only bearable but worth a watch!

To conclude this, this drama has a great mixture of truly interesting, intense, boring and just plain strange plots. So I can’t say it’s bad but it´s not good either but if you feel like getting angry while being charmed by Cutie Lee then its definitely worth a watch (and if you get to board, just skip ahead).

Confusing but impressive and more twists then the twist

This drama is a bit confusing, when I finally thought I might start understanding something a new twist came along and threw me off completely. I happen to be a big fan of twist and turns so it was defenetly my type of drama but I understand if is not everybodys cup of tea.

The male lead did an amazing jobb portraying several characters. Hot and cold, sweet and mean... in a very handsome package.

Go Aras character was interesting and she did do a great jobb portraying a very special personality.

The second male lead was very sweet, and so were the rest of the cast. I wasn't annoyed att anyone, maybe could do without some of the children crying but I never really felt the urge to fast forward. The pace was ok but I'll admit this drama could probably have been shorter if they prioritized but att the same time looking back all had their role in this very complex multilevel drama.

The ending was defenetly one of the more intersesting ways to wrap it upp and was very unpredictable witch I see as a big plus.

So all in all if you like complicated dramas, like Go Ara and a handsome lead this is definitely one for you. Oh and you should not care to much about the details making sence.

Sweet, easy to watch loveable side caracters. I'ts good but not great

Kim Seul Gi was great as second lead. This drama is nothing special really but does have some nice moments and loveable caracters. The plot has its ups and downs. Some of the humor was a bit low and almost embarrassing.

The leads acting wasn't always good and the cemestery between the main leads wasn't so good. However the second couples chemistry and the side caracters acting made upp for not so great leads. That said the main story was mostly good, sweet and unnecessarily complicated with several known drama trophs.

Another + was how the show tackeld coming out as gay and hardships that can come allong with it as well as homofobia and internalized homofobia.

So definitely worth watching but not something I recommend if you are looking for a masterpiece.

A Humorus series that dears to challenge the notion of the good mother

I don't remember when I laughed this much in a drama. It has allot of dark humor and shows several aspects in the process of becomming a mother. The fear, the stigmatisation of the working mother and the feeling that society seems to forget to stigmatise (and for that matter involve) the father.

I loved how they showed the moralisarion of mothers who seem to loose what little digaty and right to their body the second their pregnancy shows. I really just wanted to yell att eaverybody to just let the protagonist have her d** coffe.

The effekts, lighting and small sketches in this series are amazing and really inhance the emotions trying to be convayed.

There was one character that annoyed me kept on interperting babies emotions with an annoying voice. Her caracter really added to presshure put on mothers but I found my self annoyed att her and wanting to tell her to shut up and let the mom have a chance. But I loved the rest of the caracters, there was not a singel caracter that was flat, all got to evolve without changing their core personalaties. The same with paranthood, the series showed a veriety of ways to love your child. A veriety of ways of being and becoming a parant. Not all joyfull, but presented in a very humoros way.

I'm a succer for series that dere talk about what actually makes a good parent whilecaccnoladging that bad parents exist, this series gave me that too ;)

The verity of human relations in the series astonished me. So many in such a short series. It really has it all from bromance thrue romance to girls sticking upp for each other, to girls making life hell for each other, coliguaul relations and fighting to hit the topp.

Im missing the LGBTQIA parents in the veriety, and there are a few scenes that ruind the my ability to completely connect with one of the moms and kind of ruined the emotional flow of those scenes.

All in all I really recommend this series, but would not want to stay att a birthcare center. Do these really exsist?

My heart broke over and over again


This is a really short and powefull drama.

I loved Lee Jung Suk and Shin Hye Suns acting they portrayed so many emotions, cold, warmig upp, hot, love, dispsir, joy... I could really se how both soles slowly died during the drama. And how desperat they where both for each other and for their freedom.

Lee Jung Suks reading poetry made my heart melt and the almost kiss was probably the hottest scene I have seen in a drama.

They where really stuck, and well it's a true story, but I feel the need to remind you that collective suiside is not a preferable sullution. There was probably not very much help in the 1920s but there is in the 2020s.

Evil that wont keep you on your toes, but feels more like a barefoot walk on asfalt.

First rule of K-thriller don't trust anyone and definitely not what you think you saw..,

This is an interesting story with a very logical development its consistent, its realistic, its interesting and the acting and characters are flawless.

I loved the different relationships in this dram they are complex, they develop and they are pron to change. Strong bonds stretched to their limits and you could truly feel the pain the characters felt when someone close to them turned out to have a dark secret or two. Can one mistake erase 30 years of friendship?

This drama addresses several important issues and does it beautifully. Main point being taking responsibility for ones actions and the snowball effect of trying to hide ones actions and the people who make evil possible. However it didn't really keep me on my toes and at times I felt the series it self gave out spoilers a bit to soon making many of the plot twists a bit to predictable at the same time as I had to have in mind not to trust what I saw.

So if you are looking for something thrilling that will constantly keep you on your toes you might want to look elsewhere, if you want some consistent pace high quality storytelling and acting with corruption, a serial killer and really bad parenting this is definitely the place to go.

This series is definitely worth the watch, but keep your expectations on an even level so you don't get disappointed

An Ancient something

Time can be confusing indeed, and this is a story about questioning what you read in history books as well as accepting the things you can not change or something like that as we meet a man who is supposed to be smart but is oddly stupid for a smart guy and a really cool female lead who is awesome in every single way in this time twist Moon Lovers light meets One and Only light, very light and with a twist... offering us a really cool female lead a bunch of questions some cringe and slow mo dialog and pretty scenery here and there.

To be honest I kind of lost interest after a while but kept at it for the female lead and lack of things to make me drop it. So it is an ok watch, not very good, not very bad it just is...

A boaring mess

What started off beautiful and with some kind of potential ended up a boring mess... So I am so sorry to say this but there is a limit to how far you can get with beautiful things who shatter and pretty faces... As I found the plot messy, boring and as if they where trying to mix Goblin with some kind of nature exorcism, war of the demons and probably something more and just made a pretty mess out of it all...

Our priest Johan (Cha Eun Woo) is probably the only reason to watch this drama, I am not saying the others do not do a good job with what they are given but , they just didn't get nuch to work with while our priest was basically the only one given anything worth watching...

And well the scenery and Johan may have been able to hold my attention for part one but where just not enough to captivate me for part two...

I guess what I want to say is, if you are going to watch this start off by having low expectations and then lower them a little bit (a lot) more for the second part.

You could also skip/speed watch and only watch the scenes where our priest Johan is present... you can probably piece the rest of the plot together a lot better without actually watching the show.

Objectively good just not for me

This is a drama that I can objectively see is good and objectively understand why someone would recommend it it to me and most people. As it has a great cast, a new take on supernatural investigations and a whole lot of good to offer.

However the male lead is as stupid as it gets, and is just alittle bit to stupid for me to enjoy watching him. And I am just not one who enjoys episodic mysteries that much. While I did enjoy watching them raise some issues once the show gave life and emotions to objects they kind of lost my interest, it felt a little bit to silly for me.

So actors Great!

Female lead- Amazing!

The mom- Loved her!

Story- actually pretty good

So for those who like supernatural, objects with emotions, investigation with fun twists and mostly lovable characters this is a great place to find it.

If you are like me who needs to connect more with the story, cast and so on you might as well watch something else.

Sweet and Simple with a side of Cringe

This is the story about a sweet introverted boy who broke his guitar, got turned down by his long time crush in a pretty cruel way and to top it off he attracted an obsessed guy who kind of lacks boundaries extrovert... but in a cute way.

After that they went on a sweet journey of friendship and music... plus a bunch of other stuff... There is love, awkward kisses, less awkward kisses... Mediocre to good acting (sometimes in the same person), some drama and a whole lot of scenes (ok 2 or 3) with a guy dramatically pulling empty luggage and a side of cringe.

The friendships in this are really nice, so is the mother, our villain is just awful and not even cute but most of all this is a fluffy orangey yellow lighting drama with mostly fluff and just enough drama to give it a story beyond the fluff... Easy to watch, easy to binge and had it not been for some of the over the top cringe I may even have rated it higher.

P.S: The styling and most of the acting preformed by of our extrovert lead was just awful the first episode, luckily it gets better... But Introverted boy rocks the introverted thing from start to finish.

A good way to understand the show

This behind the scenes was both entertaining and gave interesting depth to the story that helped me appreciate the short series even more, thus doing its´s job as 3 of the shows very charming leads answer questions about their relationship to the show, the characters and kissing scenes.

There may have been a bit to much talk about the kissing scenes, while also talking about how this show was deeper than just the average Y series with kissing scenes...

What I loved most about this was how it made me think more about what I had seen, as well as got me in to thinking and understanding the characters better. Making me draw. new conclusions of. my own... thinking about how it would have been perceived if it was shown in reverse?

So if you are considering watching He She It or have already sen it, this is deffenelty a good behind the scenes to watch, just watch it after the show and all will e well...

Short, Sweet smile generator

Say hello to the common BL cliches as the boy who defies BL tries to avoid them... part 2 started with a twist and ended with a twist... it follows the format of season one and is definitely not a show to see on it´s own.

The characters are pretty flat but sweet which seems to be the point, If you have not watched season one you should probably start there If you have not watched any BL´s then chances are you will not get part of the humour though some applies to any romance so it won´t be a complete waist of time... this could actually be a bit of a beginners guide to BL´s that can help people enjoy otherBL's more start with this, watch BL search for the cliches kind of thing.

What I love most in this is the intro song and the side characters... the main is actually probably the least fun of them all (which again seems to be the point).

I also find myself shipping the "wrong people" oh well... not a must watch but definitely an enjoyable one that had me lauging, and smiling once or twice...

Bad boy gone good, meets the evil queen and cinderella gone independent...

This is such a dose of fun humour and sugery fluff with a side of issues... almost guaranteed to make you smile, laugh and fall in love ...

Though this could qualify as a typical " All the best love stories begin with someone being vulnerable" the female lead here may be down at the bottom but she does not lose her integrity and ability to be bad ass and all round cool.. ok she is a little bit violent but always for good reason... She has great lines, great values, a smile that will make you melt and a playfulness rarely to be seen on screen. No matter what situation she is in she will stand up for herself and others. She sees the good in people and tells it like it is. And will not budge for any spoiled brat... While still having moments of vulnerability,,, odd but true.

The Male lead is a spoiled brat, in desperate need of someone like the female lead, Though I am a little but bothered by his age, the power relation between the two is more in his favour than hers and when it comes to maturity they have different types of maturity and kind of complete each other. But the age is an issue I will not deny that. Still the chemistry, playfulness and dynamics for this couple is off the top amazing.

The grandmother and butler are just a dose of fresh air, making me fall for them at first sight they are the glitter that makes this show just that much more fun.

There are so many great scenes in this drama, that are interesting and relatable, portraying how circumstances play in, in important life decisions.

This drama also has some interesting cultural displays, friendship, found family and a lot more to offer... No it is not perfect but I am in love, I truly am!

As you might have guessed this is now a new favorite and a drama I strongly recommend to all romance bad boy gone good lovers out there.... Also the cynderella theme is played with to perfection!

Genuine slice of life drama without to much additives

This drama, is more drama less romance and allot of slices of life coming together true the good, the bad and the day to day life.

In this drama we re invited in to the stories of two non consecutive generations of friends and lovers in the countryside showing friendship that has lasted generations and while life may change over time the strong friendship will remain. The drama incorporates allot of different types of (mis)fortunes but seemed to find a way to value the simple in life without falling for cliches like what doesn't kill makes you stronger but rather I get by with the help of my friends... And actually admitting that all things in life have expiration dates including love.... This drama will probably make you feel a range of emotions all from hate, loss, sorrow and fluff.... but not to much of anything which is why it gets an 8.5 and not a 10.

To be clear there is ALLOT of drama, allot of potential cliches made real by breaking them and allot of everything... and more stuff you would not imagine to see here uncovered slowly, slowly as the drama progresses. All the characters are well written, not all are lovely but non are annoying or unnecessary for the plot and though we get to see allot of very different life stories it is actually pretty cool to see how they all come together in this one little grocery store.

To be honest I was looking for something adapted from a Taiwanese Menua , I did not know what to expect, this was definitely not it but I am happy I watched it.

If you ask for it you may just recieve it, and yep I did...

After watching season one I asked for more time screen time for Bas and Marco as well as more depth for the real issues that only scratched the surface in season one. And yes season two gave me more or less all that I asked for after watching season one. While season one only tipped their toes on the surface, season two took a dive right in, still kind of in a pool and not ocean but definitely allot deeper than season one. I also got more time with Bas and Marco, maybe not as sweet time as I had hoped for but definitely more time with both so bad humor it is actually funny... Like going to the sea to get some vitamin sea.... as well as showing beautiful support and pain. All without deviating to from season ones plot line. Some parts where a bit odd and I would say a tad rushed, okay not some several parts could use some more build up and time, definitely more time both screen time and chronological time. Once you see it you will probably get what I mean, but to save you from spoilers Ill just say time is not a bad thing.... And this drama needs more of it.

All in all definitely worth watching, and Marco rocks (most of the time)
