Forgotten alley of lost dreams.
Really cute, original story in the fairy tale genre. The initial idea is good.
Really cute, original story in the fairy tale genre. The initial idea is good.10 stars for the Korean actor's acting. Cute couple.
The main actor Chae Jong Hyeop really lifted this series because he is so credible when he expresses the depth of his feelings for the FL. Thanks to his performance, we felt a great romantic intensity. He is spontaneous, very affectionate and his smile is bright.
Well done.
We literally fall under its spell. Plus, he knows how to cook with love. His Korean dishes looked quite appetizing.
I had aslo watched his other series he starred in. Particularly the Korean series ''The Castaway Diva''. A pure musical marvel.
Also a small role (Na-bi's childhood friend cook) in the realistic series ''Nevertheless''.
Here It was also nice to hear a mix of Korean and Japanese languages. This mix of 2 cultures gave a lot of charm to this story.
We are often confused by the acting of Japanese actors and the storyline of Japanese series. I completely understand the criticism.
The FL character behaves too shyly for her age and the position of responsibility she holds.
Additionally, she had a hard time expressing her feelings.
But I think that's not the real personality of this actress.
We feel that she is actually extroverted and not shy, just by looking at the quality of her manicure, her outfits and hairstyles.
A more playful, assertive, more modern attitude of her character would have highlighted her more.
It's a shame.
Because this excess of shyness greatly disturbs some spectators. I admit that it was annoying and even frustrating.
This habit of showing women with little confidence must be specific to Japanese culture. But it is confusing to Western audiences. I don't find this rewarding for these women. Points are often lost because of this.
This deserves a better thought-out second season.
Special mention to the Japanese actor Taishi Nakagawa whom I really like and to the actress Mizuki Yamashita who gave a good performance
