Weirdly enough it didn't frustrate me.. It became so egregiously bad that it was almost amusing. Each episode…
š¤£š š I am about to reach episode 6 and both leads have been going at it (kissing) since episode 1ā¦ However, I have not yet felt any chemistry between them. I donāt think itās the storyline; I think that it is poorly directed. It doesnāt help that the FL was the MLās dead older brother girlfriend for 2 months; even though, the ML lost his chance to meet her firstā¦ That entire plot-twist is in poor taste.
Watching because of JKY and SHK. Although SHK is one of my favourites, I still think, out of all the FLs JKY starred…
Ahhhhā¦ Come and Hug Me is a timeless, romantic, psychological thriller drama. They got everything right with the execution. The unbelievably phenomenal cast, the well developed storyline, the beautiful directingā¦ And the chemistry between the younger cast and the adult cast were simply perfect.
PS: I also think that Jang Ki Yong had great chemistry with Lee Hye Ri in My Roommate Is a Gumiho.
After the reviews and comments, there is no way I'm watching. I feel bad that Jang Ki Yong's last drama before…
I loved, loved, loved My Roommate Is a Gumiho. I am about to start this one but with all of the bad reviews; I am already feeling very sad for Jang Ki Yong. What a bad taste before starting his military service.
A very interesting and entertaining series. It deserves a much higher rating. I hope they come back with a second installment (Preferably, in episodes format again).
No doubt that I am an avid fan of Leo Wuā¦ Ever since his āWater Buffaloā younger days in Nirvana in Fire 1. His performance in Our Times, here, is simply impeccable, impressive and heartbreakingly poignant. Sometimes, I forget that he is one the 2 youngest actors within this cast. Unfortunately however, the storyline on the other hand is rather boring and repetitive. This might be one to place on pause. Sorry Leoš¢
I remember seeing modern beauty products as PPL in the historical drama - General and I.That was seriously hilariousš¤£…
Cdramaās characters are funny. The female characters usually are freshly graduated or just starting outā¦ However, they always have enough disposable incomes for fresh nuts, gigantic hotpots and beauty products.
I am glad you enjoyed it, honestly I decided to write this article just so I could include that game... the rest…
I am from New York; so whenever, I find myself in Chinatown, I always have an eye out for Rio. Blame the modern cdramas. So goes for Soju; whenever, I go to Korea-town. They caught me in their trapš .
I didnāt fully love it; however, I definitely enjoyed it. I have always enjoyed watching Kwon Na Ra in her past worksā¦ And in this one, she didnāt disappoint. The gentleness and the tenderness in her performance were beautifully displayedā¦ Very natural.
My main disappointment is the final repercussion that was given to Ok Eul Tae. The jerk got everyone in a limbo of profound misery for one thousand darned years and thatās all he gotā¦ He just disintegrated into the airš¤Ø. That was not satisfying at all.
The background is based on historical facts. The miserable upbringing of the young crown prince and the atrocious…
And that is exactly that! Since I have always loved historical pieces, no matter the origins. Sitting through 50 or 100 episodes or more, of a well manicured and a well directed storylineā¦ Is simply a pleasure for me. Unfortunately, halfway through that Red Sleeve (Which is a ridiculously minuscule number of episodes, compared to the old classic Sageuks) I was like, āWhat the hell, am I watching? And am I watching the same drama as everyone else?ā
As for the FLā¦ It was not just the actress. The writing behind her characterā¦ The peculiar performance of the actressā¦ And the directing that was obviously fallowedā¦ Besides that her initial character was presented as strong and independent; everything about her was just odd.
Everything that you wrote is so true. If someone asks me my thoughts about this newer version of Yi San (2007)? My answers would be as follow: - I liked Junhoās performance but I did not really like his character. - I did not like the actressā performance and I still have absolutely no clue about her ambiguous character. - The only character that I truly enjoyed in the show wasā¦ The dense, naive and dimwitted royal guard.
The background is based on historical facts. The miserable upbringing of the young crown prince and the atrocious death of his late father. As for the romanceā¦ Yi San (2007) made sense. This one does not.
Alsoā¦ It was hard watching them together for the most parts. I have watched Yi San (2007) countless times; which is in a nutshell, the original version for this one. Never once, did I hope that they donāt end up together. Their romance was so heartbreaking and so heart-wrenching. Her character was willing to suffer through cancer in secret so she could give birth to her second son. And the king cried and sobbed like a mental man when he found out about it, on her and unborn sonās death bed. āYou promised me to stay with me forever and to never leave me alone inside this prison all by myselfā¦ā There was no forced romance, no uncomfortable trap. He let her made the decision to have the life that she wanted . To go study in China (Qing) for years under numerous famous Chinese painters. She decided on her own volition to come back to Joseon for him, after years apart. Her decision! And I loved that, about that well developed storyline.

With 2 big leading stars.

Find The Rioš šš¤£
There is no modern cdrama without a Rio. Itās impossible.
That was seriously hilariousš¤£ .
Chineseā¦
How is that possible?
Are they sure that it is not a Taiwanese production?
Anyway, the first episode was an embarrassingly poor comical version of Addicted: Heroin.
I can not give it, even an āA for effort.ā
