Mysophobia should be a subplot, not the whole plot!

Am I the only feeling like there are gigantic black holes in the plot?

It's like the writers have decided to go on a cooking spree and mix wasabi with chocolate. These 2 ingredients are potent in each of their own rights, but Wasabi Kit Kat? Thanks, but no thanks. From mysophobia to chaebol to love triangle, you name the cliché they've got it. The show even started with the whole stylised apartment and walk-in closet thing.

Everything is unbearably unbelievable and predictable. We've got the female protagonist, who is supposed to be "dirty", looking still pretty and neat as ever with just a few a hair out of place. And the lead male keeps having way too many "accidents" where he would overexaggerate to the same degree every single time, enough to make the couple seems as polar opposite as possible. Then, somewhere in between, there are bits and pieces of flashbacks that are recalled rather awkwardly and forcibly which don't really add much to the depth of the storyline.

Maybe my expectations were a little too high as I anticipated for Yoo Jung's comeback and Gyun Sang's rom-com debut. Either way, it's not my cup of tea at the moment.

On the other hand, where is my Untouchable adaptation, JTBC?

Do you want a stale story with uncomfortable chemistry? This is for you.

Lets start with what I like: Kim Yoo-jung as the female lead was endearing and grounded. Though this series is unrealistic she offers a rather humanising performance which puts many of the actors in this serious to shame. Her acting was the only thing keeping me going for as many episodes as I did.
Further helping this was the family element which was by far the best part of this drama, both the relations amongst the family members and the further interactions they have with the people they bring into their lives.
However, none of this could get me to continue to watch this.
This drama fails at its very foundation and that is the romance with the male lead. His character was insufferable, he spends most of the early episodes falling in the pit falls of his own ego, all whilst negging the female lead, or giving the viewer emotional whiplash as he switches between doing half decent things for the FL and being a general arsehole.
Now I went into this drama unaware of the significant age gap between the 2 main actors but it does explain a lot of the uncomfortable tension in many of the 'romantic' scenes. As a rule I'm not against all age gaps, however when the FL actress age is still in the teens and is being partnered with a man in his 30s in a workplace romance which already brings with it a power imbalance there is a level of ick that should not be overlooked. This could have been done well but it shows a lack of forethought and brings a disgustingly uncomfortable element to a drama that does not have the emotional or story strength to pull it off gracefully.

Episode 12 Question

In episode twelve, they are at an aquarium then she goes home and is lying in bed looking at a ceiling projection of aquarium scene/water. I would love that projector. I have searched online but haven’t found one with the aquarium scene. It’s easy to find ceiling projector with plain water or fake looking fish. I haven’t found one with realistic sea life. Wondering if it’s a real ceiling projector. Does anyone know how I can buy one just like that? Any help is appreciated. Please share shopping link if possible.

cute and cute couple!

fun series to watch! cute and cute couple! I really liked this series, I thought the love between the protagonists was beautiful. Even with all the problems, the protagonist always tries to be with the girl. I also liked the depth of the story, how the past explains the present. I thought everything was beautiful, I loved it.

I'm glad I never drop a K-Drama, because the last five episodes SAVED this show!! For me, the first roughly seven episodes were cringeworthy, boring and bad, with a few good scenes interspersed. Dr. Choi (I believe that is how it is spelled) is the most underrated character perhaps ever in television? I know some may not like his character but I thought it was perfectly played.

From episodes 8-11 the show started to pick up it's pace a little, and by the end five I was finally gripped by the show. I not only suggest everyone to be patient with this how but to be patient with all television shows. Always watch a series until the end, no matter how bored you believe the first half to be. Because you may find out, just like in this case, that being patient will reward you in a story that gives you fulfilment.

Out of all the shows I have reviewed so far, yes it's the lowest rated. It doesn't mean it's a bad show though. Watch it!

I cant say much because I ended up dropping this show after the 6th episode.Just a personal opinion but I felt the drama was boring from the beginning, also upto the 6th episode there is not where you see the process of the ML and FL falling in love. I felt like they just suddenly fall in love. However, If the show had stronger bonding between the characters that would build further character development but then again I guess this opinion doesn't count as I've only watched the first six episodes.

Odie el principio y ame las actuaciones

No iba a escribir una reseña de esto, pero me puse a leer las otras reseñas y me di cuenta que tenia que dar mi opinión, ya que pienso completamente diferente a muchos y me gustaría explicarlo.
Desde el principio sabia que este drama, no iba a ser muy bueno, algo light para ver.
Que me engancho: la historia de él, su actuación era tan real, una persona con un trastorno asi es tan desagradable, puede llegar a ser detestable. Me llene de curiosidad de ver como lo solucionaban.
Que odie: Todo el principio es tan cliché, tan cliché al extremo, que estuve a punto de parar de verla. Todas las escenas, los encuentros, exagerados sin sentido. En las comedias románticas esta bien usar cliches, pero aquí eran exageradante ridículo. La ridiculización de la protagonista me pareció sin sentido, la escena de la cabeza de caballo, no tenia nada de lógica. Hablo del tipo de lógica en un guión que hay escenas para lograr algo. Las veces que la emborracharon para que fuera extremadamente torpe. Todo era innecesario. Una persona con misogenia no se enamoraría de alguien así nunca, jajajaja.
La segunda parte de la historia, no es para nada perfecta, pero tiene mucho más lógica, en especial el tema familiar.
Que el abuelo sea un desgraciado haciendo lo que le da la gana, por puro orgullo, digamos que es normal para tener un villano. La secretaria apoyándolo, creyendo que ayudaba, tambien es normal para tener un chivo expiatorio.
Que la familia que fue jodida por una gran empresa, odie todo lo que tenga que ver con la muerte de tu familiar, es totalmente entendible y que te tengas que alejar de ellos es básicamente solidaridad familiar. 2 años de espera para sanar eso me parecio bien, para perdonar y seguir, fue decente.
El tema del hermano que por hacer taekwondo no pueda defenderse es primera vez que lo veo, no se cuan exagerado es con respecto a la realidad, si es asi, muy interesante dilema que mostraron.
El papa de ella y la mama de él, son actores que adoro, sus actuaciones son expectaculares.
Conclusión:
Si puedes pasar los miles de clichés exagerados del principio, este drama es disfrutable, entretenido. Ver como un chico con un trastorno psicológico cambia por enamorarse, me pareció muy interesante historia.

Come spesso accade, l'idea di base era molto buona

1) Attori decisamente bravi, alcuni già conosciuti e apprezzati in altre opere. Qualcuno è riuscito a fare la differenza.
2) La coppia di protagonisti mi ha fatto ridere e molto, li ho amati nelle scene in comune. Altro personaggio molto apprezzato è stato un collega della protagonista: ha un carisma e un'allegria invidiabili! Apprezzati molto anche il padre e il fratello della protagonista.
3) Affronta i difficile tema della DOC. Va bene che qui viene usato per fare ridere e a volte sembra estremizzato (e non lo è), però non è stato trattato affatto male e come cosa mi è piaciuta molto siccome anche io ne sono affetta (di un altro tipo). Ho riso cmq tanto.
MA...
1) Alcune situazioni risultano alquanto bislacche. Essere un rom-com stupidottero non lo giustifica dall'inserire cose a caso.
2) Il segreto che unisce i due protagonisti a loro insaputa è alquanto instabile. Il fatto poi che venga a galla negli ultimi due episodi e che venga trattato così così non giova di certo.
3) Questa è la cosa in assoluto più grave: un personaggio estremamente legato ai due protagonisti che usa la sua professione (e anche qui ci sarebbe da capire come ci è arrivato) a proprio vantaggio, cercando di dividerli. La cosa peggiore è che non viene giudicato per questo. Sembra che nessuno veda la gravità della cosa!
Nonostante la storia spassosa, romantica e che tratta un argomento a me molto vicino, non riesco a passare sopra a quest'ultimo punto. Mi dispiace.

Indignada porque ela não escolheu o psicólogo

olha, a serie é até legalzinha de assistir, teve um ótimo começo , com um tema importantíssimo, que trauma psicológico. Nenhum tipo de trauma dever tratada como brincadeirinha . Só que em si o k- drama de ouro foi para prata, alguns personagens são muito chato sem ação, o personagem principal que o CEO germofobico ele é muito sem sal, uma ameba, não achei nada galã também. Triste. a série não foi trabalhada nos pequenos detalhes deixando algumas história muito solta, e no final houve uma apelação imensa, não gostei da escolha da personagem em escolher o CEO em vez do psicólogo o que me quebrou foi isso.

Hoy les traigo la reseña de un dorama que empezó súper bien, pero que después se volvió insufrible (sí, insufrible): #CleanWithPassionForNow.

La trama gira en torno a un hombre que sufre de misofobia y tiene una compañía del limpieza. Él es perfecto por fuera, pero la realidad es que su enfermedad es tan grave que no solo no puede tocar a nadie, sino que tampoco puede soportar ni una mota de polvo en su ambiente.
Digamos que la vida de este hombre cambia por completo al conocer a Gil Oh Sol, una chica desprolija y poco pulcra que empieza a trabajar para él.

Okay, como no sé por dónde empezar, voy a empezar por el principio: los primeros capítulos me encantaron. Son muy divertidos, los protagonistas pintaban interesantes y los personajes secundarios (los benditos personajes secundarios que más bien terminan siendo terciarios) prometían un montón. Esto se mantuvo más o menos hasta el episodio 4/5, a partir de ese momento las cosas empezaron a decaer.

Literalmente no me daría la vida para enumerar la cantidad de clichés y momentos predecibles que hay en esta serie, y ni siquiera es que lo hacen a modo de "parodia", son escenas "serias". Además llega un punto en el que todo se vuelve muy lento y aburrido, los conflictos se empiezan a repetir y la trama no avanza. Un embole.

¿Vieron que les dije que los personajes secundarios prometían? Bueno, terminan estando de adorno y lo que te dicen sobre ellos queda a medio desarrollar. Podrían haber metido mil subtramas interesantes en vez de alargar tanto el conflicto principal al pedo. Desde la mitad del dorama hasta el final yo solo quería verlos a ellos, un bajón si tenemos en cuenta lo poco que aparecen.

¿Pero el crecimiento de los personajes está bien? ¿Y el second lead?
No, no y no. El crecimiento se da de un momento a otro, parece causado por una lobotomía. Ah, y el second lead al principio podría haber sido reemplazado por un potus, imagínense.
Ni los actores pudieron salvar estos personajes.

En fin, un dorama cargado de clichés, lento y que no supo aprovechar su potencial.
Lo terminé por terminarlo, pero obviamente no lo recomiendo.

Clean With Passion For Now es un drama para pasar el rato y poco más. No consigue ser grande ni pretende serlo. Lleva consigo los clichés típicos de este tipo de series, pero está lejos de ser un mal drama. Sí es verdad que el guión se desinfla allá por la recta final y hubo ciertas cosas que pudieron ser manejadas de otra manera, pero en series así es bastante común recurrir a un poco de sufrimiento y retroceso para llegar al 'Happy Ending' que ya sabemos de sobras que nos regalarán.

La pareja protagonista me ha gustado; me parecieron bastante bien aunque por momentos sus personalidades lograban exasperarme un poquito y ganas me sobraban de darles un zape para que espabilaran un poco xD. Los personajes secundarios son entrañables, y eso, en parte, consigue levantar los episodios cuando comienzan a decaer. Hay escenas muy graciosas, eso sí, y una que otra carcajada por ahí y por allá sí está asegurada.

Drama recomendado para quien quiera pasar un buen rato sin sufrir tanto en el proceso o esté hambriento de finales felices y relaciones cuquis al por mayor.

Ce drama a été un véritable coup de coeur pour ma part !

Cela faisait un moment que je n'avais pas regardé de romance mais celle-ci tout particulièrement a réussi à faire battre mon coeur si fort ! Si le premier épisode m'a surpris par son humour, où j'ai sincèrement laissé échappé des rires à voix haute, j'ai ensuite été absorbée dans une histoire d'amour encore plus douce que des draps fraîchement lavés.

C'est avec ce drama que je découvre les deux acteurs principaux qui ont une alchimie si importante à l'écran et que je suivrais désormais de près vous pouvez en être sûrs. Le drama en général aborde divers sujets, comporte quelques morales comme toujours, il a ses moments moins agréables, mais la romance est si belle que ce ne sont que des détails sur lesquels je n'ai pas réussi à me focaliser.

Moi qui m'attendais à ce que le dirigeant d'une société de nettoyage soit ennuyant, j'ai été bien bernée. Je ne compte pas le nombre de fois où je suis passée du rire aux larmes, et où je finissais toujours par me retrouver avec des étoiles dans les yeux à l'idée de découvrir un nouveau moment entre nos protagonistes adorés.

Autre surprise toute particulière, j'ai absolument adoré les rôles secondaires de ce drama ! On retrouve Kim Won Hae que j'adore, mais aussi d'autres acteurs moins connus qui sont formidables à l'écran. Je me suis même surprise à guetter bien plus souvent que je ne le devrais les apparitions à l'écran des rôles et romances secondaires.

En résumé, j'ai absolument adoré ce drama qui mélange avec habileté humour & amour. Si vous cherchez une romance douce, quelque chose à regarder avec une tisane après une journée trop chargée, c'est le drama qui vous redonnera le sourire à coup sûr !
