its the wrinkles around hisbeyes that rly gets me. like i understand, he is 45... its korea... tbey have tons…
He has clearly already had many procedures and that's the main reason his eyes look weird. Koreans just need to leave their face alone. They already age very well by design. He's naturally handsome, his eyes would've looked better if he had just left them alone.
Finally finished it and I enjoyed it for the most part. I came as a loyal fan of Im Ji Yeon and will be leaving as a HUGE new fan of Heo Nam Jun. He's an excellent actor and, as the male lead, really saved this show for me. I truly fell in love with his character. I usually don't like fantasy/supernatural type shows but I gave this one a chance because I trust Ji Yeon's taste in roles and wanted to see her. As it turns out, even with her as the FL, I still REALLY dislike storylines like this and that started becoming more apparent toward the end of the season. It's just too hard for me to suspend disbelief on these types of plots and it takes me out of the show, especially if the writing is not up to par. IMO the only kdrama that has really nailed this type of time travel plotline was Mr. Queen, which is near perfection.
What kept me watching until the end was the excellent chemistry between the two leads, they gave me butterflies and were a 10/10. And I'm picky about chemistry, but these two simply had it. The man who played the villain was also fantastic and had great chemistry with everyone he shared a scene with. As for the storyline itself, it was very strong right up until around episode 10, then it REALLY started losing steam for me because the writing fell off and the plot became messy. I did finish it, which is more than I can say for most dramas these days, so overall this show is about an 8/10 for me, mostly because of the talented actors.
I'm halfway through this and I just have to say the ML's microexpressions are amazing. He's a really good actor, it's been a long time since I've seen a kdrama actor this believable. He's made me laugh out loud so many times even when he doesn't have any lines! Loving it so far. I will be back with a full review when I finish!
so i just started it / 15 min in and im like "MAN whatever happens to that wife who cares, shes awfull"…
I completely agree. After episode 1 there is nothing they could do that would make me sympathetic to her. They went too far and she's pretty much irredeemable tome.
calling her trash when you're on 1st ep already you don't even know the reason she acts like this
If I don't care about your FL because you've made them so unlikeable then I'll struggle to finish the show, which is exactly what's happening. On episode 2 and struggling to continue. I don't know why the FL acts the way she does, and I don't care, because the writing has done nothing to make me care. The writing is poor. Will probably drop this.
I'm on episode 1 and I guess I'm supposed to care about his asshole wife getting kidnapped but I definitely don't. They made her too unlikeable for me to care. Rooting for that other woman but I don't think she'll play a big role in this sadly.
I really enjoyed the first half of this drama but right around episode 9 it becomes too repetitive. It was a real slog getting through the second half. Didn't need to be 16 episodes.
On episode 3 and the female lead is an unbearable moron. I assume the writer believes her stupid actions are giving girlboss, but no, they're just giving stupid. That's all. I'll drop this if her stupidity doesn't stop. 😂
Yes it is a taboo subject but it is well written and that's all I ask for from my dramas. I'm not the morality police, especially when it comes to fiction, and this was an entertaining watch with genuine chemistry between the leads.
I'm glad I stopped listening to yall a long time ago. 😂 This was really good. The ML specifically is probably one of my favorite kdrama characters in a long time. He feels like a real person, I love the way he was written. I also enjoyed the love story. Yes there was a SML but his relationship with the FL was surface level. The emotional and uninhibited love story was clearly between the aunt and the uncle and I loved it.
just finished the drama and I have to say that this one was my least favorite. I thought it was incredibly rushed.…
I didn't mind the storyline but for me personally it was the actor that threw everything off. Kim Go Eun has never had bad chemistry in this series until this season, which makes me feel like the ML was the issue. He's very cute but his performance was wooden, so even little things like him calling her noona felt forced instead of exciting. The kiss scenes were stiff too. I also agree that the season was too short, I didn't know what she loved about him or what he loved about her. I still enjoyed the it, mostly because of the cells, but I didn't feel connected to him like I did with Wong and Babi.
Yumi's Cells has never let me down. Though this is not my favorite coupling of the three seasons it is still such a unique, funny, and well-written series that I would recommend to anyone. I'm really glad I gave the first season a chance, it's been a wild ride and I will miss the cells most of all! ❤️
Another drama where a fully grown FL acts like a child. Constantly hiding behind her hair and running away like she's been shot just because some guy said he likes her. Annoying. Not my cup of tea.
It's funny but in a childish way. I doubt I'll make it through 20 episodes. I kind of understand the men but having a fellow grown woman freaking out at the sight of another woman breastfeeding is just stupid. That's just one scene of many that jumped the gun for me. It sucks because if the writing was a little less cartoonish it would be perfect. Lee Yi Kyung is the only cast member with the comedic timing to pull off this type of writing, the rest of them just give slapstick which feels like a chore to watch. I'll come back and write a full review if I'm actually able to finish it.
