When an adult acts more emotionally and mentally immature than an actual teenager. Also, did the teacher's subplot have to drag on for almost every episode? It wasn't even important. I feel like the showrunners were trying to force it to be important, but it wasn't for me. Can anyone realistically say that after 10 years they still can't stop thinking about ONE kiss they shared with someone? Also, if the teacher doesn't mention that kiss 10 years later, why bother bringing it up to "get closure"? I thought it was closed 10 years ago. Ugh. That was frustrating.
It's no secret that I usually avoid Japanese dramas. I've always thought the Japanese were amazing at coming up with plots; all anime and manga are proof of that, and honestly, the scripts for dramas and movies have never failed to impress. What I've always struggled with is the acting. The Japanese have a very distinctive, exaggerated, comical style of acting. This has ALWAYS bothered and irritated me. But there are a few actors who have a more subdued style that I can tolerate, and if they're in something with an interesting plot, I'll eventually give in. Sato Yusuke is one such actor, and Fake Fact Lips is one such story, so... I gave it a try. And I don't regret a second.
Honestly... was there anything I didn't like about this drama? I can't think of a single thing. The main characters were wonderful. The acting was good. The chemistry between the actors was great. The plot was interesting. The music was pleasant. There were touching and funny scenes. And I didn't want it to end. I really hope these two actors will appear together in a BL series again.
How Rin is obsessed with social media when he post so seldom? Do we watch the same show?
He certainly reacts strangely to the sight of Rin with another guy, considering that she supposedly no longer has any feelings for Rin. Overall, the second couple are two toxic guys in many ways. They fit together.
I had two problems with this drama. Well, not exactly problems, but rather something I didn't entirely like. The first, less important one, was ML's grandfather. I managed to praise him to my friend for finally having a grandfather/father figure for the wealthy ML who doesn't create unnecessary drama in the main couple's relationship and simply accepts the new granddaughter/daughter-in-law in the family... And a moment later, he turns out to be a stereotypical grandfather who dislikes everything about FL and tries to break them up... Sigh. And the second, much more important thing... FL's second identity. The one who pretended to be someone else (I don't remember the name). The problem is, she was a much better FL than her real identity. And when she disappeared, I was disappointed. ML said there was no difference between them, but the difference was huge! It wasn't just a different name; it was a whole different personality and look. The other girl was bolder, more daring, more fun. But FL's real personality was a gray mouse with no self-esteem, shy, and just plain boring! And her appearance irritated the hell out of me (those clothes like my mom's, her bangs falling into her eyes, the way she always slouched to be less noticeable). Well, overall I had a good time. I watched it all in one day off and I don't regret it ;)
Everything would be great. Wonderful, even. If it weren't for that damn "she can't be an heiress because she can see ghosts" line that runs throughout the entire drama. For God's sake. Regardless of the fact that even if someone published an article claiming FL can see ghosts, who in their right mind would believe it? The hotel's stock might have plummeted in the first moment of confusion, but it would have rebounded immediately. That's how it is with stocks and scandals. At most, a small loss for such a large company. FL has proven for YEARS that she's competent and talented. I don't see how something like this could ruin her reputation and undermine her abilities as CEO. I think someone claiming she can see ghosts would have more trouble than anything else. Of course, it would be different if she were shouting from the rooftops that she's a psychic, but she hides it well. And the worst part is that her own family acts like it's some kind of fucking crime. I don't understand it at all. Is this some kind of cultural difference? From what I understand, shamans aren't hated in Korean culture. So what's the problem with FL seeing ghosts if no one can prove it to her?
I only disliked one aspect of this story. Wayu's mother.
Seriously. What was that supposed to be? If you create such a shitty character, you leave her shitty until the end, damn it. You don't suddenly give her a personality transplant from devil to angel because you woke up Tuesday morning thinking her personality was too disgusting. Who even came up with that idea? She wasn't just a woman who was addicted to gambling. She was also a woman who clearly didn't give a damn about her family. She was selfish and mean. Suddenly, she decided to quit gambling, became the grandmother and mother of the year, and magically became the perfect woman in one day!
The characters are so human, so flawed and emotionally vulnerable, that I felt like I was watching a story taken from real life, and the people living it, not actors portraying it. The plot was very simple, but I think that's a plus in this case.
This drama also teaches an important lesson: if he cheated on his ex with you... he'll cheat on you too.
Seriously. I need someone to explain to me where the pedophilia is in this drama?? Because I've already come across such opinions. Do people have shit instead of brains these days?
they fall in love in flashbacks. Plus this series already faces a lot of Pdfile allegations and Pobmek falling…
People will see what they want to see. Honestly, if someone actually watches this series and sees pedophilia, I think that says more about the person's mind than the drama itself.
I tried, but my nerves aren't strong enough. I'll wait until it ends and someone will give me a spoiler to see if the ending is as devastating as I expect, or if my weak heart can handle it.

I also suspect Falcon will try to frame him for murder so he can have his hands clean, although that doesn't make sense to me...
