Another Bo Young win.

I don't think I have ever watched something with Park Bo Young that I didn't like. The beginning of this drama was a little rushed, but thing got explained through the episodes. Villains were okay, but the one that remained and the one that didn't had their endings badly chosen. The one sticking point sometimes was actually Anh Hyo Seop, not because of his acting but something about him didn't really fully click with his the way he was portraying his character. Secondary characters were pretty good too and I liked how Go Seyeon's father didn't take the whole situation at face value. It added some realism to it.

Should be a good one, but it has some negative points

I dont care whether a drama has happy / sad ending. It wont affect my rating

This drama whole plot is fine. But it has some negative points

Chinese drama lately often picture a marriage which not approved by parents. Gu Yun Zheng couldnt forgive his father until the end. This is BAD example for family in real life. I dont think govt should approve this / keep promoting this kind of culture

This Gu Yun Zheng always to find perfection but in the end he also couldnt save his most loved person.

I couldnt understand why if SWA doesnt have hipertension, why she wont try to take HDQ 39. Since it only has negative adverse effect for hipertension ppl such as her aunt

Acting is good
Ost are excellent
But morale story i dont really like at some points. Ending is good though IMO, realistic

80% of Cdrama based on novel, this make drama plot cant have creativitiy. Stick with novel although it is unrealistic at some points. They should have more dramas NOT based on novel so can have free, creative and realistic scenario

Realistic plot tragic yet heartwarming

Thank you for the beautiful story, guess it's same w/ novel? I didnt read it. Realistic, why she rejected him many times but at the same time she love him, she give up her studies & love, but he give her courage the reality slap her again, but Dr.Gu persist, he changed his research direction and restart after 9 yrs studied other illness though that one have good result. The flow never had overdo something, when they fight, have nice pace & reasons, the conflict & outcome. I so agree w/ him never forgive his father, no need to hve so called happy end (I can related bcs not everything we can forgive right?) The villain, she lost everything but she never did real crime so maybe what she got its what she deserve? The man duhhh he lost his mind & jail, dont force your fault bcs of other ppl, other ppl is hurting & thats not right! Spoiler sorry!
SU WEI'AN gone but DR.GU always bring her name as one of the team, she's legendary without phD holder! She's also the one who contribute a lot for this research 😭😭😭💔💔💔 and I think he never annnounced her death though 😭

INSANELY HOOKED

If I hadn't seen the thumbnail on YouTube I'd have missed this gem.
There hasn't been much noise about this so I'll be saying all the well done and a few things that could've been better abt this drama.

GOOD THINGS
1) Story has the ability to get you hooked. You keep wanting to see what going to happen next
2) The actors did very well. Every emotion is conveyed very well.
3) If you like a strong-minded, powerful female lead this drama is for you.
4)Amazing chemistry between the leads.
5)Cinematography and music are well done

THINGS THAT CAN BE IMPROVED
1) Even if the story is good it can't be stretched too long, I feel this could've been shortened to 36 episodes.
2)Character development for 2nd FL would've been more appreciable.

That's it for now, I hope you watch and enjoy it!

I thought I lost my ability to feel chemistry!!!

Let me get this straight. I gave myself a break after not finding any good drama for a while. A few months ago I read the novel and I dropped it halfway because the STORY was boring. But I knew I had to watch the drama for my favourite C-actress Bailu(not anymore). I read a few reviews here and there about great chemistry and went for it.

THAT'S A BIIIIG MISTAKE I MADE THERE
After a few(18 episodes) I was seriously questioning myself if I lost my interest in dramas or smtng. But that was not the case, it is genuinely so poorly done. The script itself is trash. They made great-looking leads to do questionable things. They have so much potential to bring something great but they all gathered and decided to do this and find it okay??? I genuinely hope actors choose better script, and stories like this stop being made into drama.

Tan Jian Ci / Xiang Liu ALL THE WAY

While Xiang Lu is not a good person I still think he's the best option.As koalasplayground.com(LYF translator) well said

"...not because Tushan Jing isn't a wonderful guy who is a good fit for Xiaoyao, it's just that someone else may be an even better fit that's never going to be explored."

It seems that she can settle for any of the two guys(Tushan Jing or Xiang Lu) given that they only have to focus on her, but XL can't hence that, and so he may never be fully explored as her lover.Though I am not overlooking his evil doings but none of these nobles are saints so they can have each other.

And I find Tushan Jing too perfect. Like let's be real, 'I torture you and you forgive me since your stepmother never loved you'. And nothing is ever his fault, it's just icks me. Why can't they just say that he's an angel who fell in love.

Short but pretty enjoyable.

This was a really good series actually but it was too short, so as a result it lacked depth. I would have liked it even more if it was a bit longer since due to the short episodes and run time it kinda felt rush. Also they tried to run even a second plot, even though the supporting characters actually didn't have much connection with the main. It felt rather ridiculous that the father who is just as cruel will care about a queer student. But atleast it gave me a happy ending. Even though the father died happily not accepting the fact that his son is gay and Zhi Chen was forced to marry a girl and have a CHILD just to please that old fart smh, we should really normalize leaving these types of parents at old age home the moment we get the chance or leaving and never come into contact again. But all is well that ends well I guess.

i don’t know why but i’m gonna continue it

I have very mixed feelings about this series. First episode was quite boring, second and third episodes were definitely better, although not perfect at all. In general, the story is not original, slow-paced and not credible. The actors are clearly trying their best, and I saw that for many of them it’s the first acting project, so not terrible to be the first time, they definitely have time to improve. In spite of everything I’ve said so far, there’s something that is making me want to continue it, at the moment at least, probably some sparks of chemistry between the main characters (it’s not great, but it’s okay, I think it will get better in the next episodes), and I’m quite interested in what could possibly happen in the story. Or maybe I just need something to watch on Fridays, lol.
I wouldn’t exactly recommend, but you can give it a try and see if you like it, which I think it’s possible if you like the enemies to lovers trope (and if you lower your expectations).

You either love it or hate it.

A girl disappears from the world due to an incident in which seven evil people are involved. Besides these sevens, there is/are(?) someone even more evil who is/are(?) way ahead of them. Throughout the chaotic, tech-savvy hijinks, the battle between villains ensues...

That premise sounds like a joke, but it actually quite accurate. I'm laughing at myself for starting and binging all 17 episodes in three days, it's a complete dramatic armageddon, which is satisfying to watch because I am in the mood for it. Even from the first episode, it is crazy and non-sense and just continues to be crazier and crazier... The characters are smart and dumb at the same time. Any minute now, they could get a heart attack and dies from screaming too loud. This is a kind of drama where you have to suspense your disbelief at all times. It is absolutely cheesy, problematic and very cruel in so many ways, but the pacing are so fast and entertaining, I was on board with it, probably because this is my first makjang experience and I'm still absorptive to it. It's quite stressful too and making me angry at times, but it also look ridiculously funny with the over-the-top acting and unrealistic plot points. For example, from the point where Uhm Ki Joon's character appear, this drama relies heavily on CGI, the CGI is overwhelmingly hologram-y. It looks strange that everything is too colorful and shiny. Also the costumes of these characters are like Halloween party. There’re few scenes that reminds me of Mission Impossible. #IYKYK

Aside from the makjang genre, I appreciate how this drama unapologetically fleshes out the ugly side of human nature, such as being an imposter, corrupted and opportunistic while destroying other people, including their own families. I would not recommend this to anyone, except if you want to escape from the reality, experience something unique and hedonic.

loved it.

My friends made me watch this series and I loved it. The cast is great, especially First and Khao are just incredibile, immense chemistry and they’re both very good actors, always believable in their performances. The story is very nice, intrigues of friendships and romantic/sexual relationships that never fall into ridicule, and the plot twists, unexpectedly, were definitely surprising. The several relationships feel overall natural, and all the conflicts take the right amount of time to be resolved, nothing ever feels rushed. And last but not least, is a very hot series, lol, many interesting scenes indeed…
I would definitely recommend!!
