The clownery that is about to ensue, goodness. Enjoying how even the heavier themes don't overwhelm the humour. All the recurring characters but the FL (in my opinion) are effortlessly funny. Even the receptionist pulls her weight whenever she's onscreen.
I've had enough of "romance-focused" older sister whose world revolves around a man just to feel loved/liked to last me a lifetime. I cannot deal with another one.
Episode 4 and the show is all over the place. Basically feels like I watched the same scene three times in ep 1/2 with Mi Ho in danger and Van coming to save her. How is Johan 23/24 and already a priest? The demons are pretty unimpressive as well. I get the feeling that some of the issues stem from how the writers handled the adaptation. It's not as smooth as it should be for TV.
I feel like this is going to get pretty heavy. Was hoping it'll be lighthearted.
There's something iffy for me with the FL I can't quite place a finger on yet. Don't know if it's the acting or something around characterisation. Meanwhile, she's going to live with the stigma of adultress for the rest of her life (and prolly never get a job in her field again) but because she's not scurrying around like the biggest sinner the drama is "glorifying/justifying adultery". rme
I wish I had the time to check exactly how much time in total was given to the murder bits. It's not a lot if we're keeping it a buck. It just really stands out in relation to the romance and other parts of the show. A recurring theme in this drama is how parents push their kids to the edge by putting too much pressure on them. Mr Ji is just one more example of that. There's another conversation to be had about whether he was going to be a serial killer anyway and his mum triggered it or he wasn't and his mum was the cause, but the mum contributed whatever the case.
I kinda knew the writers would bring Hae Yi's bio mum back at some point. That she's trash was clear from the way she abandoned Hae Yi. Her current behaviour is not at all surprising. I suspect she's going to sever relations with Hae Yi because she can't be a parent.
Jae Woo and Young Joo's relationship. I'm just not comfortable with it and it's coming from the place in my head that has infantilised Jae Woo and thinks him incapable of making an informed decision about romance. I did that by myself, not the drama. Haeng Seon is protective of him but she doesn't treat him like a child. This will not be the first drama where a character's friend and sibling get together even though they've had a sibling-like relationship all along. I'm just going to file this away in that space.
Hoping ep 16 is all sunshine and rainbow and kisses. However it turns out, this drama has given me a lot of happiness in the past few weeks. Kudos to the writers and actors.
I hope they keep this cute and not add any complex subplots. I could barely tell Force and Book apart in Enchante. Like that they've styled them so differently. Also helps that their characters are complete opposites. I hope Cher grows on me but for now, I'll be watching for Gun's beauty.
About to start this again. The first time around I wasn't feeling it. But I've learnt from Waikiki. Took me three tries to get into it and I loved it. Hopefully, second time is the charm.
What do you think about Young Ju and Jae Woo becoming a couple at the end of the drama? At first, I feel forced…
I doubt Young Ju likes him like that. I'm thinking it was a momentary lapse on her part. Her character is pretty spontaneous and she acted on whatever she was feeling at that point in time. She's back to treating him like a little brother. Jae Woo on the other hand might have developed feelings which complicate things a little. Them being a couple feels a bit off to me. Their sibling dynamics have been laid on too strong.
I was a little worried about ep 13 (the murder plot) but it didn't disappoint. The writers served up the murderer in the early episodes but I guess it felt too obvious. Seon Jae's brother didn't make any sense as the murderer (which makes his mum's quick acceptance of his guilt all the nastier). Looking forward to how they tie it all up.

What I like -- Lee Da Hee as Mi Ho.
"Also, this news doesn't bother me either cos Idc about her as a person and it doesn't affect my life..." Therein lies the problem gee.
