One of the best OST (both main theme and fillers) i ve ever heard in asian dramas overall. Without being anything special, each piece is suitable when needed. Now still on ep9, i skip some scenes, episodes are unecessarily long, but the main couple has great chemistry (though as individuals they re not that interesting) aaaaand there's SUGAR SUGAR SUGAR everywhere! (the hashtag thriller is completely out of place. The drama is very light hearted-it could easily be korean lol) As i ve read many comments blaming FL's character and the actress for bad acting: She did a pretty good job. She just didnt have the looks, she's not the usual asian type-petite,short, skinny, just her cheeky baby face and thats all.So its hard to deliver a girl who suffered from turret syndrome and lived all her life glued to her mother. But that was the whole point: she was like that and ive seen MANY female characters in asian dramas who are that naive and behave like 5yo, without having any reason for it. At least she had her reasons to behave as such. Plus, she had to be in total controversy to the ML as a character, as he is witty, "evil", experienced and dark. Yes the writers went too far with that "mommy" thing all the time, but the actress's performance overall was decent.
Very bad acting from the 2 main leads. I have a soft spot for reincarnated/fated to be/couples through times, but this couple is not convincing at all. They move act and talk like co-workers or worse. Nothing indicates that they were lovers to begin with. Still on ep 8 and i think i ll drop. I could endure the horrible cgi if the acting, the character building and the chemistry was good enough, but here its not the case.
HE LICKED HER BACK!!! From my understanding, they had the same dad different mom, therefore, they were half-siblings.…
Since the were not blood related, that scene would make sense, if as teenagers had a crush or something. But since they were just siblings growing up under the same roof. the scene was pointlessly erotic. Because it was clearly sensual. They could show how he regretted and wanted to comfort her, in a totally different way. This scene was out of place
In reality there can be love between any age/bodytupe/looks people. Sadly, in shows we can see only good looking…
In Kdramas hard to find cause its all about beauty (at least after 2012-13 . Before that year long there are better quality works by far, in terms of drama/movie making and less beautification. But i suggest you should go to Japanese dramas where you will find true gems with much emotion and reality, not caring at all about beautification-filters-all this sugar around. If you want, pm me so i can send you some suggestions i found from jdramas
That "bimbo lookalike" was probably reincarnation of that young widow, so he only continued in previous romance.…
2 questions: 1. was it indeed a reincarnation? i somehow lost it-i thought he said she was not after all 2. when he comes back each time, can he get intimate with her without fainting? I ve lost that part too-maybe he is recharging (kind of) while being in his planet?
First and foremost-i root for Rio and Kase-im guilty as charged, but their onscreen chemistry was off the charts! Great chemistry too between sister-brother. The only failure was the main couple, of course i dont blame the actors-though ML 's performance was too blunt- i couldnt feel anything by his expressions, his body language-failed to convey his emotions. But the main problem was the writing of the main couple story. What was that: "when this is over we'll talk about our future together". They werent a couple-to begin with. There wasnt any interaction that showed any kind of attraction between them. Lame dialogues, no depiction of their emotions for one another and thats all. On the other hand, there was plenty of good writing about Rio's and Kase relationship. The subtle (maybe) romantic feelings of him towards her, together with his protective nature and his will to make everything he could for her and her brother's happiness-his empathy to ther father, and his whole character building were very sweet to watch-plus a GREAT performance by the actor.
The whole cast did a great job-i exclude the ML a bit Overall, a good detective drama, with a bit slice of life elements, not tormenting as it may seem from first episodes-overall a good and decent watch
Hey, quick question, does Yukiho arrange for the young daughter of her second husband to get raped in this version?…
In the drama there's not a second husband of Yukiho. But there are in total 2 arrangements of rape attempt (only attempt so to scare the victims and leave Yukiho alone-though the second one was just out of her greed and will to just punish her friend for being a good well nurtured person)

As a nonsense, fluffy, lighthearted romcom fan every now and then-especially after watching a really good and heavy drama/movie, i ve never watched such cringeworthy show. All the ridiculous crappy nonsense fanfics out there, should bow to this one. No, its not the non existing storyline. Its not (only) the stiffness and fake intimacy of the main couple who had multiple supposed-to-be-bed-scenes but there was nothing there, the nonsense dialogues and there's so much more! If you want to watch a nonsense light romcom, BUT with very good actors, direction and real feeling, go and watch: "Love is Phantom". At least you ll get to see real people moving and talking like real people, not souless dummies. What a brain damage!
Gods know how many nonsense-manga inspired, light fluffy jdramas i had to watch after this one. so to console my broken heart. This drama literally broke me into pieces with the whole cinematography,the darkness, the tragedy i was expecting to burst any moment. I ve watched after the kversion (which ok it was good standing alone with all the superficial filtered glittered beauty of kdramas nowadays -but i felt zero feelings) My only complain is that they should focus more on Kimutaku's character as you said, he was the initial wheel who moved the story and was very little depiction of his whole development from childhood till today-ok i get it that jdramas are too short-but still they should focus on him more. I loved the FL, as she came out to be a deep full of real light and love character, without being silly and immature. She represented successfully the light as her brother was clearly the dark part of their special bond. Overall, i will watch it again sometime, when i ll be fully recovered (i recently watched it), so to enjoy the acting and other stuff more. (btw, are you Greek? im Greek too, i ve noticed your title about greek tragedies, and this drama clearly brought the same feeling to me)
It's so interesting how people like you freak out at taboo subject matter like this and are so timid that you…
Movies and dramas, are not made with the purpose to preach or tell us what to do and what to like. They just depict parts of life, even taboo ones, disgusting ones which are still part of reality-even when none of us would do it. Its ok to feel uncomfortable to any kinds of topics, but there's no such thing as "people will do what they see in a movie".

I do not understand the hate..incest/taboo topics get, we are not 12 year old, this kinda of things happen in…
2 years later many people have become more puritanists than ever, even with lighter themes such us infidelity, skinship, age gaps (between adults) etc. Thank god there are still normal people like you out there. Its like a denial to hate depicted taboo topics. Especially since we know that they re part of human nature, be it right or wrong, they are still part of our species
Japanese weirdos gave another quick, creepy (with no reason), nonsense series. Highly recommended for laughter, chill or dinner time company. Good acting, good chemistry, actors who dont mind to caricature themselves. Overall, yes!
I'm intrigued, what made you say that? What gave you that feeling? I've have no clue :0). Thanks
Nope. Its just the actor is not good enough to convey the right feelings. Actually he has 2 expressions for any circumstances, the serious one and the "im trying to look creepy but nothing moves in my face" one hahahhaha
In these ridiculous times that we live in, any type of male forwardness is met with the usual overused buzzwords…
Its indeed 2022 and its good that women can talk about these things out there, report abnormal behaviors that cross the limit, this can only lead to healthier societies BUT, to watch dramas/movies as if you are targeted by propaganda of misogynistic propagandists its waaaaayyyy too much! I myself dont like many kinds of males portrayed in dramas of all kinds, but its just personal preference and taste. Shows and art products in general, are not here to build new politically correct stereotypes, they are here to express their creator's view. We can take it or leave it. People who actually behave in real life, same as they watch the heroes behave in a show, have serious mental health problems or issues to solve. All the others, we can just enjoy, or reject a show according to our taste. Im already freaked out seeing all these neo-puritanists preaching everywhere how people should talk and behave. They harm those who indeed have abuse problems or are sexually harassed in their workplace, or abused in their relationships.
