Funny sweet romcom

I was expecting it to be your typical romcom and I wasn’t wrong! But I think the entire point of this movie was to make fun of the cliche romance movies, they took so many cute tropes and added all of them in one.

The chemistry between the actors could’ve been better honestly, I still think they were cute but definitely could’ve been better. On a side note, the actors still did well, I had so many moments where I laughed while watching the movie- it’s just silly in its own way and entertaining at the same time.

Amnesia plots in romance movies are usually the most cliche tropes ever and I think that was the whole gag (especially the doctor who was the one who kept mentioning movies about this plot LMAO).

Overall, I loved it a lot! The beginning was a little boring but once we get to the amnesia part it gets much better and entertaining, super cute and a good watch.

Very emotional story that will make you cry!

As soon as the show starts, you can tell this is going to be a pretty heavy show. It handles abuse and feeling alone and not having that parental validation you need. Overall, everyone in the show that you’ll meet, is somehow mistreated.

What I have to say though, is that the first few episodes with the child actors, were amazing!! They showed a lot of potential, and I hope I see them in new projects as well.

Even the casting was amazing, I truly think they outdid themselves with it.

I feel like the story did get a little boring at some point, but it was still nice enough to continue watching when you’re bored.

I liked the tropes in the story too, even if they were a little toxic…but they were done well. Like with Ranjoo and the PD, I mean I was rooting for them! Despite them going back and forth…I’m not sure if we should assume they ended up together in the end or not..but they were cute for sure.

Also with Mokha and Kiho, I loved their chemistry when they were kids! I was totally rooting for him until the older versions of them were introduced. I’m not going to lie…I preferred Chaeho …He was just so much more better (personality wise) than Kiho’s older version. But in the end I caved in, and I think Mokha and Kiho are absolutely adorable. I mean…who waits and stays loyal to one person even after 15 years of waiting? What a love story!

Really, this show will have you crying. It’s such an emotional rollercoaster. Keep in mind there’s child abuse as well as abuse in general, so when you’re watching this, be sure to understand what you’re getting yourself into. Even though the show starts off pretty dark, it soon turns beautiful and colorful. Cute story, cute characters! Watch it when you can!

Entertaining

After finishing twinkling watermelon, I started this K drama, because of Ryeoun. Especially after seeing so many TikTok‘s of him in this K drama (edits), I became super curious, because this K drama was in the erotica category on the website, or I mean the app that I was watching it in, it was listed in the erotica section and once I saw his name in there I became super curious and I knew I just had to watch it. (also bc ??? why is it in the erotica section LMAOO)

Since this K drama isn’t that popular I didn’t really know what to expect and especially because the first episodes were not about him,,, and his character wasn’t introduced until later in the episodes so the first few episodes were a little bit boring to me. I know that the actress in the first few episodes is in a kpop group (gidle?) and I was like oh that’s interesting but it just wasn’t really as interesting as i thought it would be.

so the first few episodes were boring me and I was like oh what if the TikToks that I saw were like just taking out of the few moments of the show and this is actually pretty boring ???…but I kept watching and that’s when it came to his character and oh my god, it’s literally one of the best tropes ever like!!! childhood best friends to boy next door girl next door to lovers AND fake dating trope let’s not forget about that!!

Ryeouns chemistry with the actress was exceptional and I continued watching it just for those two. I honestly wished that there were more episodes with those two in there because once their story ended and it went to the last story, I was pretty bored throughout the rest of the show.

The last story was about a teenage girl. Basically the same premise as the other two stories, but this time it is about a girl who is a little bit of a bigger person and we all know what happens in K dramas when you’re not skinny,,, obviously she gets bullied, and thats sort of the main plot in the story.

I honestly did not like the character, I really dislike how when Korea makes a plus sized character they make them super annoying and just all about their weight. They have no other plot except for being insecure about their weight and it was really annoying throughout the show. I understand there was a reason for it and I guess they’re talking about how you should love yourself no matter what and what not but the whole time they made the character seem so naive and so annoying and she had zero personality, except for wishing that she was skinnier and that the popular boys like her, but what I like at the end a lot was that they didn’t make this into a romantic story and they made her and the guy end up in a platonic relationship and I really like that because not everything has to be romantic, and I’m really happy that at the end they end up being good friends, and I really liked how she changed at the end as well. I would say in the last few episodes she did make a big development but it was still super boring, and I think it’s only worth watching this show for the other two aka Ryeouns ship.

also what I didn’t get is what ended up happening with that bully like did she just continue bullying her like what happened there? I think the show ended super abruptly especially her story !!and I don’t know if there’s going to be a season two because this show could very easily have a season two, because it kind of reminded me of sex education and because they talk about different stories, they could definitely make a season two and I would be up for watching it because it wasn’t a bad plot like it’s not a bad k drama it’s just that certain stories were pretty boring.

Overall pretty entertaining

Well…

It’s exactly what it is. Erotica combined with a tragedy.

Honestly I don’t know what I was expecting when I started this, I went into this movie blind but I knew it was in the erotica category. I was just curious because of the actress since I saw her in The glory the first time and liked her ever since. She did such a good job once again even in this movie.

I could definitely tell there was chemistry between the actors and the longing was something even I felt through the screen.

As for the uh, ‘erotic’ scenes, I mean I don’t know I kept laughing at it 😭 I don’t know maybe i’m just a little too immature for it still but the plot and sneaking around bit was what kept me watching.

I feel bad for the wife, she truly never blamed the mistress or her husband. She’s definitely my favourite character in the movie. On a side note the ending was actually heart breaking, I kinda called it though, I knew one of them was going to die.

But regardless a pretty entertaining watch.

Keeps you entertained

Not much to say about this movie, it wasn’t the most amazing or out of this world, it reminded me a lot of korean revenge plots which is why i liked it a lot. i loved the acting as well, all good actors but i think some scenes were a little confusing and at times i wasn’t really sure what was happening.

also…director cha is his sister ?! and she tried to kiss him ?!…okay that was just nasty…

i really thought she was his wife at first or something but i guess not.

also i really liked the plot that cha liked boksoon since they met. sets the tone of their relationship a lot more, i think i would’ve lowkey enjoyed this story more if it was about them in their younger years. also i kept speculating if they would show who the father is…but i have my suspicions that it might’ve been cha…don’t know though.

overall a good enough movie. i would love another sequel with the daughter or a movie about cha and boksoon when they were younger, their story intrigued me a lot!!!

WORTH IT

Okay I was super hyped up for this mostly because i LOVE suzy baes acting and I knew this was going to be a banger.

Doona was an interesting concept for me from the start, i’ve always loved ‘celebrity/non celebrity’ tropes because they’re either tragic or a lovely love story.

The love between the main characters was a doom from the beginning, both of them so toxic going on and off and never really properly communicating, but i really loved the chemistry between the actors.

The first kiss in the show made me get butterflies, and thats really rare for me! I loved how Doona was the confident and dominant one and then later on when Wonjun got a little bit more confident, he started taking charge too.

But their love story was so short lived and yet so painful. I was actually really rooting for them, and i’m so sad that they didn’t end up together. I know it’s the harsh reality yadda yadda but c’mon!!

I liked the side characters as well, especially the side couple, I just kneeeew something was gonna spark between them, they were adorable!

Seeming how the show ended, I don’t think there will be a season 2, it seems pretty in the face about the ending. Even a time skip. They will always long for each other but never have each other, and that thought alone breaks my heart for both of them.

This even made me think how it would be a nightmare to date someone famous…imagine getting hated on for loving someone and then when you break up, you see your ex everywhere. Just seems like a nightmare.

Anyway the show is a really good quick watch!

Didn’t disappoint

It’s exactly what you expect from a season 2. They didn’t make any unnecessary changes or give crazy plots, they continued with season 1 in season 2 and delivered great stories!

The reason why my rating isn’t 10/10 is because some of the stories were a bit predictable and slow, at the beginning i had a little bit of a hard time continuing it but then i went back to it because i missed the show so much and it was great! I love the actors and the relationships between the characters!

I’m curious if there would be a s3 because of the plotwists they added in the end, if there is, i would definitely watch it!

Worth a watch!

Suzy Bae never disappoints

The reason why I watched this was completely because of Suzy Bae, and she definitely delivered a performance.

The story was so interesting and well done, I finished everything in one sitting. Granted this Kdrama isn’t hard to finish since it only has 6 episodes but it was still very well done.

I love Suzy Bae as an actress but this was the first time I disliked her character in a show. Anna was so naive and annoying at times, that I had to click ‘pause’ at certain times just to collect myself and not go crazy.

I wasn’t expecting her character to be sort of a villain since the edits I saw of her character seemed to make it look like she was a badass poker faced character. Especially because of the first episode where they showed a woman from UK (?) visit her and give her some advice, which I thought they would bring back but it seemed pretty useless? The only thing she got from that woman is to have poker face which played a big role in the show.

Anyway I think this deserves a season 2. It did so well in just 6 episodes that I feel like it deserves justice by being back on the screen again.

Bae Suzy, you are phenomenal!!!

SO GOOD!!

Every episode had me hooked, and it didn’t have a slow start, and it kept its moment. nowadays, the new K dramas that are coming out, They usually have a slow start and a good middle point, but this K drama really just kept going and it was so well done. Every episode was so interesting and it kept you on your toes and keeps you wondering what’s going to happen next.

Even though this K drama didn’t have that much romance in it, I still liked the side plot between the main love interest and the main character. I think they have such great chemistry and i was really happy that they ended up being together in the end.

Also, I can’t help, but think that there might be a season two because I mean you don’t put Lee Junho at the end of the episode for like three minutes of screen time for nothing and I definitely think there’s gonna be another season or just like another part of celebrity and I’m really looking forward to it. I think even season two would do it justice and I think it’s gonna be really good and if it’s gonna have Lee Junho in it im definitely gonna be watching it and I’m so glad that more K dramas are casting Lee Junho.

Okay no I’m starting to talk about Lee Junho now lol.. not about him but I really do recommend this K drama it’s really good and if you like a good revenge plot this is the one for you and you will definitely enjoy it.

Good feel movie

The beginning was a little slow and boring, I had a hard time continuing it and took a long pause in the middle of it but once you let it flow, things get a lot more interesting especially once they start showing the players’ background stories!

The final match scenes were so fun and interesting to watch, my eyes were glued to the screen and I really like how realistic everything was done. Obviously they had no chance at winning but the one goal shot celebration was such a nice add, i really liked the ending!

The trope new found family are hard to do well but they really did capture the chemistry and relationships between the characters.

I recommend watching this even if it is a bit slow and boring at start!

Really good!

Okay there was no second lead for the main character but there was a second lead couple and i was honestly so much more into them!!!

I wish they had more screentime and more development fr.

I still liked the main couple, and they developed them really well but i think somewhere in the middle of the story i got a bit bored.

What kept me interested was the flashbacks of jieums past lives, and i lowkey wish the past life she had as a guy (the one who loses his lover) was more touched upon…

I don’t know I just feel like 12 eps for such a complex story isn’t enough and there were so many things to explore.

Overall the acting is AMAZING!!!!

Shin Hyesun never disappoints! I loved her in Mr Queen and I only continued to love her more in her other projects. Such a talented actress.

On another note I gained another kdrama crush, Ahn Dong goo… I hope I see him as a main love interest in a good kdrama one day.

Overall the storyline is really good but could’ve been explored a lot better, it’s worth a watch anyway! Finally a Female lead who isn’t afraid to be confident and dominant. Really loved Jieums character. So emotional, each emotional scene was well acted through. Good Kdrama!

A little underwhelming

Honestly I was expecting a lot for s2, i’m not saying i’m disappointed but i’m just a bit let down. I thought they would go a bit deeper into everything but it seemed like they crammed up a huge situation into 6eps just to get it over with :/

I was really surprised when I realised it was already over, and i can’t help but ask if D.P will have s3? The ending seemed pretty open and a little unfinished in my opinion.

I mean really I just can’t believe they made it so dramatic but ended it so quickly. I was hoping for more…but I hope that maybe they do better in another season if they’ll be making one!

On a side note, AMAZING performance by the actors. This is one thing I knew I wouldn’t be disappointed by. The actors are so well casted and protrayed their characters well.

Even if I am a bit unsatisfied with s2, it’s still a solid tv show and it’s worth the watch.

you WILL get pissed

Honestly though, this movie took the ‘cliche dumb main character in a horror movie’ to the next level. You have no idea how much she frustrated me. Literally the dumbest person ever, I mean I get that in certain situations you just don’t know how to handle things like that but isn’t she completely dense?

But then again this just proves how well the actress is, so kudos to her. Both actresses did extremely well honestly..

The ending kinda fucked me up because i’m honestly kinda happy for the villain winning because wow i did not feel one ounce of sympathy towards the main character, she literally deserved it all because of how dumb and naive she was. Literally how could she possibly make every bad move and the way she handled that stuff is just even more frustrating, it’s just an easy story where it pisses you off.

On a more bright note I guess it’s more realistic to end it like that because how could a dumbass like her outsmart a smart serial killer? Lol, I thought this might’ve been some kinda horror esque movie where the villain gets killed in the end by some magical thing but atleast they showed that it’s practically unrealistic to make her lose against an idiot. So honestly…i’m not even THAT mad. I’m just mad that they made the main character that unlikeable..

Powerful story

Every episode kept my attention, from the beginning till the end, there is no boring moment in this kdrama.

It talks about relationships with mothers, and usually when kdramas take a plot of mother/child relationships i BAWL my eyes out. this is definitely one of those kdramas that will leave your heart hurting badly but happy at the same time.

Please consider watching it if you’re looking for a good kdrama to binge. It really has everything you need, romance drama sadness. For someone who has bad attention span, this really keeps you interested. Such a good kdrama!

Heavy Watch

you can guess from the title and the description of the kdrama that this will be a really hard watch. so much crying and heartbreak, you know how heartbreaking it can get when a kdrama involves a kid and a mother daughter relationship..

i started this couple of months ago but couldn’t finish because of how heavy everything was. every episode would have atleast 1 character cry in there and at some point it got a little boring and overbearing because it seemed to just circle in the same area which was grief and guilt. i understand that’s what the whole purpose of the show was but 1 hour 16 episodes ? yeah it is a bit too much..

towards the end the last couple of episodes were hard for me to finish because thats when you could tell that this is all just gonna be people crying and yelling at each other and each character slowly finding out that yuri is indeed gonna end up dying again, so at some point i didn’t even feel sad for the character because i’m like ‘alright we already went through this with this character…’ BUT… throughout all of that i must admit the last episode TUGGED on my heart.

i was honestly not expecting for yuri to actually end up dying in the end, i thought this kdrama was going to take the direction of being cliche and making her stay but it didn’t!

i’m not going to say i was happy with it because i actually felt sad that yuri couldn’t stay in the end, but also felt satisfied at the same time because that ending was the most ‘realistic’ and good for the show. i did shed a tear when she was saying goodbye to her daughter and the ending where they showed the dad and the step mother together kinda made me a little upset but it is for the best…

on a side note, the child actress reminded me so much of lee know from stray kids when he was a kid..am i the only one ?!
