i see now what you mean.
Yeah every story is essentially the same :) but how it is told...
I liked FL's creativity at work, like going out with window washers... I actually enjoyed that.
The scenes of her chosing to pay attention to items to sell versus her boyfriend and her nightmares were really helpful to get to know her deeper - good and bad - and root for her.

So then comes ep 2 and to me, that flopped :) and I think I am out. ML is just grumpy and stiff all the time, and FL in the village was too... unreal... silly? I dont know how to call it.. clueless silly?. I was bored in ep 2 and probably will not come back. I might peek in to see if ML defrosted and FL grew up some yet. .

Enjoy watching!

I liked ep 1 - we got to see FL shine at work, we got to see her personal life, we got to see ML's healing process in the village, presented through slapstic comedy... ah we got to see lots o villagers.. and ML doing comedy... that's why it was so funny... and then... ep 2 was so boring for me. ML is like a piece of ice, has personality of cardboard and looks like a cowboy beffore he shoots at a showdown. BORING... !!!!! I hate John Wayne characters .... a cemented serious face and grumpy attitude non-stop is just BORING. He doesnt talk, he doesnt smile, he is just grumpy and has zero charm. Boring as hell.... Seing that for probably about 30 mins was BORING.
ML actor is told to act so stiff and cold, so he is super boring. Whoever made ML act this way is really ... limited. ML acts so much better when he can relax and express. Forcing him to look so stuck up is just... CRINGE. And the filming is just so choppy, and the story is cringe, except the village elders. ML and FL are cringe. I didnt find anything funny or endearing. The scene of chasing the chicken, climiing the fence, running after tractor - it was NOT funny to me. Nothing was funny in ep 2...
Well helping the ladies on the bus was nice, but again that cowboy approach. and the tree with mushrooms was beautiful, the only one nice scene where ML smiles at a mushrooom and FL falls in love. FL is so supper skinny, her legs look funny, knees as knots on sticks... going to village in high heels... that too was weird.... Overall, I really WANTED to watch bc i really like the village vibe, but ... ML has personality of cardboard and/or rough cowboy, and imo ruins the drama, and FL is like a fish out of water. Imo only the elders are worth watching, and the nature. but that's not enough

So... I think I will probably pass this drama. Enjoy whoever stays. Ciao.

I am starting to love this drama!!!

I am starting to sync up with this drama because it is normal and pleasant and comfortable and ML finally started to wake up, so the scenes ML-FL and SML-SFL and any combo are totally hilarious and well done.

I loved the senior home, ride home, being seen, and the restaurant. The arrows were HILARIOUS :)
I loved grandma and grandpa lovebirds in bed, grandma's clutching the blanket was such a rich detail to convey 50 yrs of love and her man dying...
I enjoy scenes of Uncle loving the nasty Aunt, and that Uncle and Aunt have a good relationship and love each other and the indications they enjoy their love life in bed too. It is done very subtly and tastefully and I like that. The drama conveys messages very well.
I like how the drama is showing love in many different ways, and uses good taste to do so
I dislike the old time tropes where the woman always hits the man and tries to push him away, it is just unnatural and unrealistic for adults. That is how kids behave.

In terms of looks, this is a well done drama, everyone is styled perfectly, so it is a PLEASURE to look at them. I love the "prefection" look of SML and her classy outfits, hair and jewelry, and I love the vibrant energetic look, smile and white teeth of SML who just exudes good health, and I love his clothes, looks really good on him,
and today I was studying fashion, ML looks good in light blue shirt and shiny jacket. and FL is actually cute and her clothes fit her character. I love the navy vest and blue-gold tie of SML's dad.

ML is excellent in "friendly" scenes, that is where he really shines and is super cute and charming. The serious snotty poker face scenes just are NOT for him. Then he is just a scrawny little nothing. The drama should let him go free with displaying good times and affection and humor. The bike ride home was HILARIOUS :) That's why I want to feed him and send him surfing, he gotta keep up with that strong lady.

Bc ML woke up, FL can bounce off his acting and can now act more. That makes it really fun!!!! She was totally hilarious while drunk in the restaurant and telling him she is a good girl... then the card game, bike ride... the scene when they got off the bike and were found out... LMAO .

FL actress has many facial expressions and is great for comedy. I am enjoying watching her bc she is so lively and energetic. The initial episodes without ML's participation were cringe script for FL. Now the closer and more friendly interaction between them is really really rich acting and hilarious endearing and deep plots.

And yeah no money to anyone, it is FL's :) I dislike FL's mom and I dislike that actress, actually she is so harsh, watching her is like nails on chalkboard.
I love watching the Grandma next door :) she is fun

Hey there is progress - he got switched to double breasted suits but they still havent figured out the colors and styles that look good on him :( That pale pinkish suit top with the patterned white-blue shirt was ok except that the pale pink was too pale. Either go lighter OR darker. If it is too pink it is not good for work so... figure it out... Adda tiny bit of golden yellow? I am all for those discreet flower shirts and patterned shirts, that is the way to go, and the cut of the suit is ok. So that he can look diferent than MJ. Half Brother also looks good in dark suits but that is MJ's turf so even if HalfBrother wears them, it has to be somehow differently color coded.
Today he wore dark suit and dark shirt and then together with MJ it is just too much. MJ has perfect style for him in those dark 3-piece suit and tie "official conservative look", and he stays in that.
HalFBrother needs to look different in more luxurious double breasted suits and kunda sorta "delicate aloha shirts" without a tie. That will be ok. Cannot be totally busy shirt but more suave but with patterns.
The light blue suit top in the preview was yucky with that dark shirt. I would use ... a light blue shirt.... ? a very delicate pattern lighter shirt?
I love the look today on Our Happy Days Chairman's son -very dark navy vest, light blue shirt, and dark blue with golden tie. Never seen a combo like that before, looks awesome. Another person to learn from is Male Designer Team Lead in Recipe for Love, he has amazing relaxed cut suits. But Hal Brother cannot wear that, it looks too .. casual. HalfBrother needs to exude LUXURY

I am impressed with light pink lipstick on Dan Hui. Looks good

Gees the writer - keeps on selling us bs that JM is "sacrificing for her family"
does the writer really expect ANYONE to believe that big fat gaslighting SH.T? ARE EVEN KOREANS STILL BUYING THAT SH.T THESE DAYS??
From what I can see, all younger actors are not capable of acting these unnatural soapy bs'

The writer is the idiotic person here - and created JM accordingly ....
WHAT A HOT PILE OF SCRIPT!!!! what a great smelly JM POOP....

I really wish that BH rejects JM for good amd SR dumps her too.... Politely... with forgiveness... and PERMANENTLY as JM is beyond repair .

"JM does not see any other way" - oh really... ? it is super clear that JM always takes the easy way out ..... and simply does not love and care enough for BH, and takes him for granted, thinking she can go back any time.

The script will apparently save JM indirectly but that is NOT the right kind of script bc JM HAS TO TRANSFORM AND GROW UP, not be magically saved by some guy or her family. A proper script makes JM outgrow being a woman-child.
Well the writer has to outgrow being a lousy writer :( If possible :) I keep saying I will drop this and I am serious about it. I have already gave all 1 -stars for episodes after 86 and for overall rating

what a waste of love of a great guy.... BH should move on, just like his "dad" he picked an evil chick...
also, JH is not giving up... !!!

revenge or not, there is never time to worry about ppl's feelings :) It is just a cheap way to save one's as@. JM should have honestly and kindly conveyed the truth to her teammate BH. That's the only way to treat your loved ones - no secrets. Esp no secrets that can endanger and kill them!!! JM is simply selfish, immature, weak, DUMB snowflake woman-child and does not deserve BH

OK sure, I will check it out.

I like Phoenicia Pathwork lectures. They are free online.

I know that there is ONE Reality actually, "one elephant" and then each one of us touches different parts of it :) and most ppl dont even get that far, bc they are too damaged from their environment aka society/family... and that can be prevented by meditation and spiritual education from early on... like meditation in school... And the only way to get a better idea of the whole elephant is to meditate and pray. Yogis, Tibetan Buddhists, etc all Know.
and then there are limitations of the physical life and how the Divine works through it all
and then the realities of the invisible life, karma, etc - all kinds of stuff

I am just watching kdrama Scarecrow, that Prosecutor is a very common psychopath/sociopath in every position of authority - and ppl underestimate it bc ppl think that polite person is automatically a nice good person.

Hong Kong series Agent of Above has very nice summary... The movie has all this glitz special effects
but the value of the movie is the very rare but powerful dialogue, such as Buffy's dying message towards the end of ep 8, starting at min 31.

She asked him to love the world for her, whether it is messy and even the gods cannot do anything about it.
She said: "I think that the ones who might really change the world for the better are just ordinary people like us. "

She asked him to wish for world peace. Bc -
An old man told her once:

magic cannot defeat spiritual power,
spiritual power cannot defeat karma,
and karma cannot defeat a wish.
So a person with a wish is strongest of all.

I got to learn about that drama from https://www.imdb.com/list/ls525827220/?sort=popularity%2Casc Thre are lots of great pieces there

why not, the closer the less visible...

Did that dude say he beat her up? I think he lied that he has nothing to do with that? OR his family bailed him out?

this is based on a real case and I researched it. That dude who was tortured to confess, spent 20 yrs in prison. For 30 yrs they couldnt find the guy who killed 14 ppl

Did they show up yet in the drama? yes no

This is based on a true story and speaks tons about police brutality, corruption and incompetence... .... FOR 30 YRS

In the real case, the innocent guy spent 20 yrs in prison falsely accused after a coerced confession by torture...

I read the notes on the real case and cannot map it into our characters here. It is strange that the prisoner wipes his shoes like the prosecutor.. and that bookie smiles at scarecrow drawing...
The well camouflaged psycho prosecutor is scary bc THAT KIND IS SO COMMON IN EVERY POSITION OF AUTHORITY and nobody understands how dangerous they are

No he wont leave anyone alone. Do NOT ever be naive...
The prosecutor is a psychopath/sociopath, a very camouflaged liar and criminal, and a VERY common kind of predator in practically every position of power
in other words: there must be at least some around you , very close

The moral of the story: NEVER TALK to anyone, like that other prosecutor told the bad one that his son was coming to visit and NEVER GIVE EXCUSE like ML beat up that guy in public... beat him when nobody can see it :(

wow this is a great drama, a "real kdrama" bravo! but ... again... female stupidity... ML's sister is a total reckless dumb moron - the reporter walking though a corn field at night.. !!!! - so typical..... kdramas are so sexist
The Prosecutir character is so prevalent in positions of power... a psychopath / sociopath... wow he is soooo well camouflaged and sooooo suave ...

I really like acting of ML, I never saw him before so I checked out his bio, he is quite famous. For a good reason. this is one great actor for sure.

So now we have 2 types of actors: porcelain dolls with pretty faces and personality of cardboard, their acting is to look gloomy serious all the time... and essentially pose for still pictures while their idol fans swoon over them...... , and real actors who are alive and creative on the scene and act and express for real Wow it was never this bad

same to you - read carefully... . I am sure I addressed exactly what you complained about and some more. I am not sure how old you are and what your life experiences are, but ARE you aware that those elderly are not physically able to do those things, and he helps them out of kindness, and he is not just the hero, he is a "son" of that village - it is an exchange of love and favors as they "adopt" him and provide a loving "home and family and fiends and community" forhim, and how tragic it is that villages have no young ppl - and how tragic it is that young ppl do not have old ppl ..... So.... Having said that... I am done here :) It will take you a while to digest this, ad you will be able to only when you get feeble /injured/needy or you help someone, like ... feed some stray cats. Go help in a dog shelter.... feed the homeless.... GO VISIT A SENIOR HOME OR A NEIGHBOR.... play with some kids... feed some fish.... or even plants.... etc ... so ... Bye

this came up after https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIudp4xv7Io so china promised to make best AI by 2030

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIudp4xv7Io and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3z1V0kUoDn0 China eliminated art degrees bc of AI

ok thanks for the input that was helpful to me. Thank you, I learned something from you.

This is yet another robot-looking porcelain doll actor, they all have super triangular face and that gloomy serious look and pale face and are super skinny

i dont understand your question

they surely kssed on the bench in one of the recent episodes
BUT IF THEY ARE RELATIVES, that one kiss or so is not going to be an irreversible disaster, that is what I meant, they can instantly let go of each other and forget they were ever "in love"

I meant that BH is not a big deal to JM and she will easily forget him. BH would have harder time but he would let her go - and that is the only way he would let her go ... unfortunately

JM is soooo careless to BH and does not deserve him
