O dear! Only from experience I say catering to such unstable low trust relationship only ends up in disastrous…
Yes, definitely. I haven't read the novel so cannot say much. But the drama did show them as more real and relatable. And I think that's why everyone is kinda waiting for their breakup too, as they need that shock, to kinda understand what is wrong with them and take this relationship more seriously and be open with each other. Again, the drama should be taken as a drama and be avoided to glorify anything in reality.
I love this show. This show actually reflects on reality quite alot. We say about toxic, red flags, green flags alot. But unfortunately, it's not easy to meet green flags as we see in dramas. Everyone is imperfect, some has some good some bad. We meet people, grow and evolve. Not every relationship is perfect but it does teaches and helps people to grow over time. Like, when I was young, I was not confident and always avoiding things. Now, I'm still not much changes but I try to attempt new things, learn from previous mistakes and change for better. This drama is very complicated, you cannot put both characters in green or red flag categories, in fact they're very real and human. They're possessive, get jealous, fight, cry, misunderstand, get selfish, ego, say stuff to hurt others, showing very real side of the relationship. Butter but yes, not every relationship is sweet and perfect. Some grow over time. This is what this drama is avoid. That's why it's so well loved by audience, it shows very real side of loving someone, being alone in a city, dealing with life and corporate. And the direction of this show is phenomenal, the chemistry - sizzling. I don't easily like these kinds of shows but this one has my heart.
Luke went after the guys who hurt Flora and damaged her home without telling her. He made that decision himself,…
Exactly. Technically they didn't even started on boyfriend girlfriend basis. It was more like convenient relationship, they wanted to strings attached but with exclusiveness. Whenever he hides things, say nothing, it become his personality or the way he cares for her. But when it comes to her, it's like all her fault, she doesn't care for him. The hypocrisy people show for men and women is laughable.
I see many people criticizing flora for hiding things from her, for being insecure in the relationship, doubting him. They're forgetting how the relationship started. She was a timid, simple girl initially, after their first time she was so happy and had flutters. However, her expectations shattered when he questioned her intentions so nonchalantly and then dared to get sulky when she became indifferent to him. It was him who wanted to start a relationship with no strings attached. On the way, he kinda forgot about it and geniunely started to fall for her, but for her, she still believes that he doesn't care about her, doesn't take their relationship seriously. She is his employee, there is financial and background difference. When you're so difference, the person who loves more, the person who is weaker, generally feels scared and insecure. They can't be as confident as luke, someone who was making rules since the start. He gets angry whenever he wants, she has many times went along with him. Yes, he changed alot, but we could see characters developing growing, but unfortunately for flora, she doesn't know much what he does for her backend, as he doesn't say those things to her face. Rather than blaming her, what we can do is enjoy the drama, how well and complicated these characters are.
About jack and lily, I still feel that she is not necessarily a bad person. She might have guarded herself so much after her breakdown and she wasn't sure how to go along with jack. Unfortunately, their differences and her strict standards at first, caused a rift between them. But I was so looking for them to have a comeback relationship like eon and zhaoyu, but unfortunately, their couple wasn't that appealing to me in the show as lily's constant comments looking down on him was kinda discouraging. Such a kind and thoughful girl was so much rude to him many times, it was clear that they were so much different from each other and that's what became their biggest difference in long run. Anyways, I feel so bad finishing this show. WHoever, starting this, just get by first 5 episodes, as from their it starts to get real exciting. I literally binged watched from that point. First 3-4 episodes, things were quite wobbly till that ball dance party after that it gets dramatic and exciting.
I had heard so many praises for this season. Now after watching it, I understand why it was so popular. In the other seasons of twinkle love, we have seen some sort of controversy, or comlicated contestants. But this season? OMG! It was so good. Like we got all couples? For the first time in the history of a dating show, where all contestants left as a couple. Some worked for long or some not, but ending was happy and so well. Zhaoyu and Eon was the best thing of the season. Their growth showed the real relationship. It was not just fun or attraction but they went through so much complications, hurdles, and talked so much deeper than others. Their conversations were so healing and touching. Like Eon as a clingy one? Only Zhaoyu could bring that version of him. He would have been the most boring contestant if not for her. He is the most handsome among guys, lighter and the princess was the well suitable drama for them. He does look like arthur from that drama. Honestly, I loved all contestants but I loved them little more.
I don't want to sound mean, but I feel min zou's reaction at Jack's response felt a little odd to me? I know he took her name during chat, but again, both are new here. They don't know much yet. It's okay to change things up. But I did felt at that moment she became more angry that he firmly chode lily. But damn, lily looked so cool when asking him questions and he also answered so front. I didn't expect that from him. I like lily but hope she doesn't treat him as an option and could seriously think about things, because she did hurt him quite alot with her message. And he seemed really shaken by it, that's why he tried to get to know other girls. But again, I do hope everyone get along well, and maybe since it's her first time I might be judging her too soon. So hope to see real bond between everyone.
Okay! At first, I wasn't much into this season. Somehow this year I couldn't complete any of the dating shows. However, after starting this season slow, I'm finally into it now. Omg, the cast is so much loving this season. Zhaoyu is such a girl's girl and she makes this season even better. She is so funny and loving and she is my favourite. I really hope she finds someone geniune on this show. Just saw her bawling her eyes out for eon and new guy makes the entry. I just hope her happy ending, no another heart break please. 😭 And jason and hou chen? They're so cute. They say they comforted her, cried with her, questioned her just because they were worried no one would? They were the kind of guy friends every girl needs and deserves. And every girl, is so sweet, and how they have different personalities yet they somehow understand each other so well. I love cshows for this reason, they don't promote negativity but friendships, love, hardships, struggles yet communicating them. Korean dating shows should learn from it, the way they make whole show a love lesson, it's like we learn watching them how to communicate and deal with emotions and how it's okay to be rejected or rejecting someone. I'm loving this season so far.
Yes. This drama also shows how we idolizes idols and celebs but when it comes to relationship, not everyone will…
Yes. She has natural chemistry with him. Even though he is her CEO, she is still much more open with him. But Lee chan, she worships him, she loves him and has been following him for years. But I doubt she ever imagined him as her partner, hence the hesitation. She always tries to put her best self in front of him, in front of hagi, it's just so natural. She doesn't have to pretend or be good at all.
as much as I love and feel bad for lee Chan, Kang hagi is definitely the one for her I mean it's quite obvious.
Yes. This drama also shows how we idolizes idols and celebs but when it comes to relationship, not everyone will be fit for you. Lee chan is the best man, but maybe not for darum.
This drama is such a comfort drama for me at the moment. It reminds me of lovely runner for some reason, except the end game won't be the idol this time. 😌😽 Ha Gi is so sun jae coded, he is husband material, so soft and funny at times, never shys away from expressing himself when needed, equally misunderstood about her real feelings. 😂 I just love how he is in huge dilemma of reciprocating her feelings or not when situation is something else.
I like it but won't say best office drama? It started strong, the characters were interesting, the characters were relatable. However, the romance part idk it came out of nowhere? I thought they had connection from before but it was just hin seeing her at orientation? The fl seems to stretch things alot at times which gets Exhausting. This drama could have been better if they had worked on their romance and personality growth. I feel Mina's love story was more interesting to me. 😭 Liked main lead's initially but slowly after ep I find myself forwarding some of the scenes. But overall it's a good drama.
I want to watch it but one thing is stopping me. Is it a sad ending drama? Do let me know if one of the main lead's are dying? I can't do with open ends or sad ending at this point. 🫠
I'm actually loving it. Didn't expect it to like it so much. Honestly, I had lower expectations after phantom lawyer. As I had high expectations and that drama didn't fit my taste. However, this one was really good. Initially had doubts but it slowly grew up on me. Now I can't wait for next episodes. These days after watching so many heavy dramas I needed this kind of mix of comedy, thrill and romance.
The more I watch this series the more I love it. It's not the typical romance story that you will like it immediately. It grows on you slowly, you need to give it time and patience to let it build up, slowly, simmering. The saddest part of the story is losing wen, the police officer's fiance. I never thought I would like a side character so much. Their story was so perfect, their characters were so beautiful. The woman was beautiful, smart, intelligent, empathetic, gentle. I'm glad they didn't show us the worst part in action, as I would have bawled my eyes out if they did. My heart still hurts but digesting it this way is still tolerable I guess. But to not have that woman around them, feels so much empty. As a drama watcher I could feel the emptiness in their lives. That's one of the great praises any character could have. With such small screen time, yet she left such a great impact and the character itself was beautifully written.
I'm watching the show and it's very interesting. It's been a long time since I watched a modern unique romance story. This story has romance, depth, complicated characters, interconnected stories and some deep life stories. It shows the reality of broken families. You cannot judge everything with the lenses of right and wrong when it comes to gray characters. You have to understand the characters and their backgrounds well and hence their actions. Yet this drama did so great in explaining those parts, the direction is beautiful and acting and cast is even more. Especially the young leads, they were fabulous and set such high bars for the chemistry. The younger miao jing was so same to the fl, they really look like a same person just grown up. The casting was spot on. Not just similarity, but the acting, expressions, they felt very much close and loved the story because of the continuity.
I don't think they work in the same industry. Jing Jing is in marketing / promotion, IIRC. I think she's overly…
Yes. First one still passable, but hotel one felt so much unnecessary. They needed a way to break both news at once, cheating and her bf company issue but I guess they chose a wrong way to do that. It made her character little off timed, especially when Qin fei was trying to handle things on her own.
She is his employee, there is financial and background difference. When you're so difference, the person who loves more, the person who is weaker, generally feels scared and insecure. They can't be as confident as luke, someone who was making rules since the start. He gets angry whenever he wants, she has many times went along with him. Yes, he changed alot, but we could see characters developing growing, but unfortunately for flora, she doesn't know much what he does for her backend, as he doesn't say those things to her face.
Rather than blaming her, what we can do is enjoy the drama, how well and complicated these characters are.
Honestly, I loved all contestants but I loved them little more.
