i would personally advise you to run away. the plot is promising at first ans then descends into absurdity and foolishness

it was definitely my type of drama. or, at least it could've been. the issues you've stated- the plot and characters - are actually really major issues, but I feel like you're undermining them. if you don't have a solid plot and characters as a show, what do you have? good music and fight scenes just aren't enough. i already reviewed the show but lemme try to summarize. the villains motives were, quite frankly, stupid. he was just another generic insane villain. none of the characters had any development whatsoever, the SML just had a complete change in character for no reason. lots of plot twists introduced in the end just for shock value, and that left the show with many plot holes. for example, if Hongrang wasn't actually their child, why did the blood test work in the first episode. also, both parents knew that the real Hongrang was a product of the wife's infidelity(that was revealed towards the end), so why didn't either of them question his blood matching with the father's blood in the first place. i dont know if you get what I'm saying, or even remember. Jae Yi was a poorly written character. she just blew wherever the plot took her. easily manipulated and never fully dedicating herself to her own motivations. she was a bandit but could never once defend herself physically??? Lee Jae wook's character claimed to have endured unforgettable childhood trauma, yet he was able to settle down and start a peaceful life with jaeyi without being haunted by his past. they doesn't seem like a traumatised individual to me. and their romance was so bland and boring. it's obvious he was just horny for her. there were lots of other issues, bigger and smaller. but essentially, dear Hongrang was just not a good show. obviously i dont expect everyone to agree with me. people watch shows for different reasons. those who prioritise visuals and vibes would absolutely love this show. but anyone who prioritises a well written plot, well rounded and motivated characters, and tight pacing and execution would easily be able to identify dear Hongrang as a show that's greatly lacking in all of those things. the only perfect thing about it was the music and atmosphere, and I understand that that's enough for some people.

😂i dont mean to be mean, but it was literally shit. shit romance, shit villain, shit plot and pacing, shit characters with shit motives. again, just my opinion

i went through the entire list looking for Goblin. How are we talking about chemistry and not including Goblin?

this is the funniest synopsis I've ever read🤣

maybe to me. it was below average in my opinion

I'm only watching this because Lee Jae Wook's last two dramas were terrible, and I dont think he can lead 3 shitty dramas in a row.

people like you need to spend less time online and more time with their dictionaries.

i like SJK, but I can't tell a lie. He was not right for this role. He's too expressionless. He's acting too much like a cool guy but that's not what this role requires. I don't see a difference between this and his Reborn Rich character except their economic situations. Im finding it hard to buy the romance.

thank you. I love Goblin so much and it's partly because the two leads were so well written. and yeah, the secondary couple were great individually, but their relationship needed more fleshing out. they should've had actual conversations rather than just admiring each others beauty and asking random questions. the plot focused so much on their past lives relationship and really neglected their present relationship. oh well, that didnt prevent me from enjoying the show as a whole. you put it precisely " the logic for their relationship feels a bit forced/unnatural"

i love him too, but he's the only good thing about this show

okay. I respect that opinion.

your problem isn't how they rate but WHEN they rate. stay on topic

correction, I ASKED you if you were a retard. which, by definition, you are. but congrats on changing the subject entirely. we're done here. I've got other people who are actually interested in discussing the show and SJK to talk to.

omg. i honestly didnt know it was that bad. he's just a person who has. right to divorce if his spouse wasn't right for him. but bringing in his new wife and kids. that's just gross🤮. sometimes I feel so bad for celebrities, then i remember they're extremely rich😂, but still no one deserves that

If you actually had a disability or were speaking for someone who does, it would’ve been clear from the start. Either way, I wasn’t talking about them. Now I get it—you’re not dumb, just committed to misunderstanding everything, and it’s exhausting 🥱. As for the argument you're losing, go back to the top and READ. I'm sick of having to jog your memory for you. and how bout you think about your shit behavior before anyone else's.

I wasn’t insulting people with disabilities. I used the word in its dictionary sense — foolish. If you’re choosing to be offended on someone else’s behalf, that’s your hobby, not my problem. People with disabilities didn’t appoint you their spokesperson, so stop self-promoting. And dragging this into a side issue doesn’t change the fact you were already losing the actual argument.

im not a big SJK fan. but some of these comments are so baseless and accusatory that I can't help but defend him. like one psycho who said he would "cheat on his new wife with his ex wife's lookalike". you cannot make this shit up, guys. these people are delusional.

retarded- very foolish or stupid. how does this not apply to you? oh, so now you wanna be a woman of the people😂 now youre suddenly selfless. dont try to guilt trip me, you hypocrite. and dont make this what its not. I asked you a genuine question cos you are clearly lacking both intellectually and emotionally. but i guess thats just who you are. now thats pathetic

i literally couldn't care less about their divorce and all my comments prove that. wait, genuine question: are you retarded? cos this is the second time I'm having to correct you😂
