Kim Sae Ron’s performance was so touching. A child being so resilient confronting so many challenges and dislike. And finding it her heart to like the ML because otherwise there would be nobody to like. It is a moving performance for me.

I guess I’m easy. I like this one. It’s one of those subjective things. No rhyme or reason for it. And I’m watching again.

I would have liked this more without the male lead character. It would have been a good story featuring the life of the FL character. She has kindness, charm and is just delightful. I get extremely tired of the grabby male characters in these dramas. Can’t they ever just call a person’s name? It’s really not a good look when the grab seems violent too.

I ran through the first 21 episodes so fast I decided to stop. Maybe I’ll binge at the halfway point. I keep up with episode synopsis and comments here. Thank you all for adding more substance to the show.

Later in episode 4 we see the son burning a letter using the same style lighter.

Remember the line she said. “The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.” I think that applies to the grandson. Plus the shots of the lighter when we know the grandson smokes.

I will continue to watch because of Kim Yoo Jung, Lee Sang Yi and Kim Hae Sook.

When I started I did not realize it was 12 minute episodes. And 12 total episodes makes 144 minutes. I like the premise of a goblin wanting to be human. I find it enjoyable up to episode 3 so I will go to the end.

So far through episode 10 I have seen 3 people, excluding children, with a moral compass. They are FL, grandma and Mr Jang. And since KOCOWA+ gives me a synopsis of all episodes I know the FL ends up with the man who killed her brother. How? Every time she looks at the guy or he touches her, she has to think, this guy killed my brother but so what I love him. I know trying to stamp reality on. Kdrama is like putting toothpaste back in the tube. I’ll probably watch long enough to see how she justifies getting with the killer.

This first episode is a load of silliness. The best part was Kim Won Hae in an early scene as a bad guy trying to rob Hwang Geum Joo and losing teeth. Just like in Strong Woman Do Bong So. One of my favorite actors anywhere.

In Kdrama the last thing they do is communicate. Makes me want to bite rocks.

I love her in Bride of the Century. Curious she has no drama credits since 2018.

Any show that has a guy under a curse and then under a love potion spell has no basis in reality. Of which I am aware. I try to enjoy the story as much as I can. If it becomes too outlandish even for fantasy I move on to another show. Then I wait till episode 16 is over. Then I go watch that episode. If it has an ending I like I go back to the episodes I abandoned.

I stopped on 100. I have been reading episode synopses and reading this forum. I think I’ll spare myself a lot of time and let the remaining episodes go. I appreciate the contributors to this forum and your observations and speculations.

The actors must not have gotten scripts very early. If they had, I think they would have had second thoughts about playing in this mess.

In this show and other shows I see this type of character as a stalker. Maybe not the evil, kidnapping holding hostage stalker, but still a stalker.

I know. I keep waiting for KS to assert himself. The writers emasculated him.

I haven’t watched since preview showed woman approaching JD in playground. I keep up by reading episode synopsis eac day and checking the comments here. If the final episode synopsis gives me an ending I can at least tolerate then I will watch the episodes I put on pause.

I like My Lovely Liar.

The detective is the biggest jerk I’ve seen in Kdrama. And the aunty selling her niece to do vaccinations at a fish farm is human trafficking. I know it’s fiction but some things are wrong no matter what the circumstance. It isn’t funny. I’m going back to the Guardian on KOCOWA+.
