But those episode ratings don't count for the overall ratings, so it doesn't show in the Top show overview. Personally I think it's nonsense to 'review' an ongoing drama, but a simple star rating that's open to change is a different matter. But anyway, I guess people just feel differently about that.

What's the matter, you can always change your ratings as you go. I always rate the dramas after watching like 5 pr 6 episodes but I usually change it a couple of times until I finish. There is nothing wrong with that? Otherwise it would be difficult to give an idea about ratings for an ongoing show.

Yeah, let's just keep our fingers crossed that they'll pull it off :)

You should watch It's Okay That's love. she only has a side-role in this one, but I loved her there.

Same, I dropped Hit The Top after episode 2, I never liked the main dude, and I just thought it was weird af

Uh, no, she is 27, he is 36, that's a 9 years difference. I am not saying it's terrible, but I myself am 28, and I couldn't imagine dating someone who's 36. But yeah, you're right, Marriage Contract was amazing. I am glad I only found out about their age difference after completing it, though. I just think Lee Sang Yoon looks way older than 36. Let's wait and see, it might be amazing.

This is a Chinese production, so this is the original. I agree with you, though. I haven't watched a single Chinese drama or movie without terrible audio.

It's probably again one of these dramas where the episodes are split in half and are only 30 minutes long. So 4 episodes are actually 2 episodes only and two will be airing on Monday and then two on Tuesday. This is a regular '20 eps' drama.

Strong Woman Do Bong Soon was such a disappointment and is terribly overrated in my opinion. I agree with the other two.

Episode 12 was my favorite. So so so so much love for that couple <3

Bo Young said she would meet Min Ho after her other appointment (with Dr. Ye), though. There was no reason for him to rush, and it was also not a competition for who gets there faster. It's about who Bo Young has feelings for. Even if Min Ho had confessed to her before, she would have rejected him. It is obvious she treasures him, but only as a friend now. She has long moved past her crush. I feel bad for him, too, but it wasn't really a race ^^"

I see, thank you both for your replies! :)

I don't see many people here who are familiar with the work this is based on, so I would like your opinion on this. I read the original novel to this, even designed a stage and costume concept for university and watched several movie adaptions to prepare for it. This is why I feel a somewhat deeper connection to all the characters, and while I was looking forward to see a Korean adaption, I was afraid of all the things that could go wrong with this, so I have only watched episode 1. Most of the viewers here seem to think it's the worst drama in history or something... Do you think it is still worth watching? Would I enjoy it with the original French novel in mind? I would appreciate a reply, thank you.

I don't usually bitch over how overrated a show is, but if there is one, it's this one. This deserves a 7 at MOST, much less if you ask me. Honestly, there is like... no plot. The love-line is super cute but cheesy af, and everything else is just plain bad. I can only shake my head in disbelief of those MDL ratings.

I have to chuckle about everyone bitching at how bad the writing for this drama is. Trust me, it's not. You just have to pay close attention. There's a ton of rules and variables to the world and the drama, a shitload of plot twists, and if you zone out for even a moment, you're likely to be lost and blame the lack of understanding on 'plot holes' that don't actually exist. I am not saying this drama is perfect. There are indeed some scenes that may seem repetitive, but they all serve a purpose, and it's because of an ever evolving world that's difficult to grasp.
Personally I loved the drama from start to finish, even though I admit the beginning was just top-notch, compared. Their romance is sweet and heart-wrenching at the same time, as is the fatherly love. The side characters are super funny, the music is fantastic, the villains and back and forth of the two worlds will keep you at the edge of your seat. It's been a while since I've been so invested in a drama and I recommend it whole heartedly to those that seek romance paired with action and suspense. Just remember not to watch it at 5 AM ready to fall asleep as you might be missing some important things ;) 9/10 from me.

To me, it feels like you didn't pay close attention. Firstly, I cannot remember in which episode, but after the writer gets back his face, Chul says he realized that the writer wasn't actually a 'creator'. He could only control the handful of people that he drew. He would have had to create billions of people, if he had included the extras and variables in the drama. Secondly, even those characters that he created, could gain a life of their own, if they started to act outside of the frame that was meant for them. That's the whole point of the drama. They could escape their predestined fate and characteristics. It may have been careless to try to solve it with a dream, and even giving him his own face, with that I agree. But that's human. We make mistakes, and we pay for them, too.
Personally, I am quite picky when it comes to fantasy/sci-fi dramas and always find plot holes to nitpick, but in my opinion they did an excellent job in W. Every time I thought 'but what about--?' they explained it in the next moment or episode.
Maybe you should rewatch it at some point? :)

I am at episode 5 and I am starting to get bored. I really love slow romance dramas, with little conflict and just beautiful depiction of life. While their chemistry is off the charts, and I am really enjoying this, there are also some super annoying parts:
1. her family. Like, her mom, honestly, I cannot stand her.
2. Her ex. Call the cops.
3. The music. There are a couple of songs that are super nice, but they keep repeating the same ones over and over again... I especially cannot hear the "Save the last dance for me" song. CRINGEY.
4. Veeeeeeeeeeeeeery artsy and repetitive slow-motion scenes where nothing ever happens. It was cute at the beginning, now it's getting old (especially when they choose a shitty song as layover...) They stretch a scene that could be 1 minute long out to 10 minutes...
Kay, sorry, I am done complaining, I love the main leads to bits, just saying, this is not the best drama of the century and doesn't deserve such a high rating in my opinion. Gonna watch the episodes one by one so I can hopefully stick around.

I think the most important thing about understanding friendship is knowing that it's not all sunshine and rainbows. It's also work. It's hard work, and even if you give it your all, you might change and drift apart. That's very sad, and unfortunately it happened to me many times as well, but it's a part of growing up. You'll meet different people that take turns walking you through epochs of your life. Those are called 'friends', even if you end up separating ways. Of course, that doesn't mean that occasionally there aren't friendships that really last a lifetime. But those are rare and built on mutual trust and understanding and one must remember to cultivate that friendship. Personally I think that the longer friendships last, the more difficult they are to maintain. But eventually, having people, friends, you can rely on, is very important and worth everything...

He's only unselfishly thoughtful in regards to his love interest. He doesn't give a damn about anything/anyone else, which I think cannot be counted as maturity. Well, I guess it's tons better than in the beginning, though. I do feel sorry for him because of his family.

I agree, I am still waiting for some kind of reveal as to why he rejected her in the past and treated her as terribly as he did. As it did appear he already was aware of her. While I don't hate him, and I can see some character improvement, I don't like his uncaring attitude. He treats everyone like crap and doesn't put any effort into it, except if he has some kind of gain. I've never been a big fan of the 'Tsundere' type. Maybe it's cute when you're 15, but not at 25, sorry.
