I gotta be so honest. when I started I said I really liked the show, and I still do. I'm enjoying the plot, the body-swap was also fun and well-done. I said that I could kind of understand the hate surrounding their looks, but I personally think they are well suited to play a prince and slave girl . However... as it goes on, the acting seems to be a problem.
The ML literally has one expression, even in emotional times, his face doesn't change. Like bro just saved her from an arrow, and again ._. hong eunjo... I feel like his face doesn't move above his mouth. The FL too, seems to have similar expressions, either blank, that derpy cute look, big eyes, but would wish to see more dynamic expressions. Especially during emotional scenes! I feel like she was really forcing herself to cry in that one scene.
It's so funny, I feel like they did better acting during the body-swap portion, maybe cause it required more from them. It could be a choice from the directing side, cause the script is fine, acting is the only problem. It's hard to immerse myself when the acting is not so great. Anyone else feel that way? This is up until episode 10.
I tried watching spring fever, and couldn't get into it. I thought maybe I'm just in the mood for a romance right now, but this one got me gooooood. Got through three episodes, about to start the fourth, I'm really enjoying it. I'm worried about the body-swap, hopefully it won't change up the dynamic of the show too much.
I'm seeing a lot of talk about issues with the two leads, and I can understand them slightly, but I think the actors are doing a great job. Despite a baby-ish face, he has the aura of a prince. The FL may have a simpler face, but she is still beautiful. Anddd think about the role she is playing, I'd say it's a perfect cast. She is a very likeable character thus far.
Can someone clarify as I only watched the first episode. I find it ironic that the day she starts to wear pretty clothes is during a parent-teacher meeting... isn't that where this affair situation started. Did she choose to wear all black, look moody, not say anything, to not attract anyone? Or is it cause she's in hiding. And this ML is lowkey flirting with her, or maybe that's just his vibe, during this meeting. Is she not uncomfortable? I'm just probably on hater mode right now, so anyone clarify?
You call this short at 2 AM !!!😂😂🤣😍😍I truly understand!!!I was looking forward to rewatching it…
I tend to write long ass comments far too often, saying I'mma be short haha. I'm glad I got around to watching it, I always put shows off, my plan-to-watch list is almost as long as completed. Why purchase, pirate ;)
This is an extremely well acted well executed thriller. It is not meant for the low attention span, constant dopamine…
I was in the exact same boat, and feel the exact same way about the show. I kept holding it of, but glad I watched it. The acting and characters were my favourite parts. Sometimes shows have medium/big size casts and they try to give importance to them by giving just one small backstory and they move on, forced to push the main plot along. However these characters, all of them WERE a part of the plot, it is nothing without them.
Holy hell, as the comment below, these guys acted their ass off. Not just our main leads, but everyone in the whole cast. Everyone had a part to play, and they played their part so well. Phenomenal job. It honestly took me a while to like the main leads, but that's cause they leave you hanging and lost for a bit, so you can't understand them or their motivations; but once you do, you're all in. Insane plot with twist after twist, I had to pause sometimes to connect the dots, but the show does a great job at explaining it despite being so complex. So you're never really lost, you just think you know what's going on, and then they unfold another layer. I'm glad I watched it.
Just finished this and I'm OBSESSED. The FL is so good, she is smart, cute, and absolutely beautiful. Her cuteness…
I really love her character too... her passion for architecture is definitely up there. She fights to work in the field, we can see why she loves it so much, her wanting to do a good job at her work, even when she's with her man, she loves to talk about architecture.
In some shows, a female leads personality is rarely impacted by her work. Sometimes they say it is, but that's it, you don't see it. I really valued this, it added so much more to her character. She doesn't exist solely for her man, solely as a cute girl, she's a person, which makes her more real and loveable.
I was genuinely hate-watching this for the first 6 episodes. Just like both leads were annoying for different reasons, juwon is so grumpy and impulsive, dongshik does not communicate and just laughs and smiles all creepy.... like REALLY WHAT'S SO FUNNY DAWG. Glad I stuck through though cause episode 7 and 8 were great, I'm glad we finally get to this point, and honestly don't know what will happen in next couple of episodes. I say give it a watch, it's rated so well for a reason, I just might be more sensitive so those 6 episodes ticked me off... but most people say the first 2-3 are tough, so if you can bare that then you should be fine. Enjoy!
Hi, (commenting this everywhere)Whoever see this, please reply!Tomorrow is my last final exam!I want good drama…
I wonder if you've seen Mr Hiiragi's classroom... it's a japanese drama. Its really fun watch, has to do with bullying, mystery, thriller, all of the above. Highly recommend, I wish I could erase my memory and watch it again.
I really hated the ending.... I have so many problems but I'll try and keep it short. This is no thriller so I didn't expect a big plot twist, I'll say I was shocked by who ended up being the killer but it wasn't a 😦, more like a 🤨. What was even worse was how they caught them. Again, this is no thriller so I don't expect super cool discoveries, clues to help solve the case, but my bar wasn't that low considering it was still a law(ish) drama.
Did anyone check for DNA or handprints anywhere, on the door handle, on the counter, on THE DAMN EARRING? Let's say they did, you can't make me believe that this girl in her crazy state left a perfect crime scene. You could see in the flashback she clearly didn't do a good job. And about that earring, you're telling me all this guy had to do was go to his house and he would've caught the killer... You're pissing me off now. THE CHERRY ON TOP... the damn ICLOUD! BROS talking about I thought I knew him, I can't figure out his password. WELL IF YOU KNEW HIM SO WELL, AND KNEW HE RECORDED EVERYTHING, ID THINK YOU'D KNOW HE HAD AN ICLOUD.... and if he didn't, this supersecret iCloud's password was an album title..... That he hid in his album.... For fans to find.... By triggering tinnitus.
Like it honestly was torture watching the last two episodes. I really didn't like how they showed the resolution. Like they just hear the recording, and boom she's in jail. Considering this is a law show, it would have been nice to see them in court for once. I enjoyed the other 10, it was cute, my brain was off just enjoying them together and solving the case.... slowly. The last two episodes were such a drag. They were trying to wrap up everything nicely, making sure that there weren't any things left unanswered, like addressing past discussions or revealing identities. It's like there wrapping a present, but it doesn't change the fact that the present is shit. One thing I will say I liked is the prosecutors arc. It didn't feel like it came out of nowhere, they always showed what kind of a prosecutor he is without his father's influence.
If I were to say anything else, I question whether they actually spoke with any kpop idols or fans. Like did they ask sooyoung, as she's a kpop idol, what did she say anything one of these weird imbalances came up. It's hard to describe, in general a lot of things I thought weren't thought through so let me just list some out:
- the fact that the group went on a world tour less than a year after the whole shebang. Like I get having a comeback but a world tour just feels insensitive. I really wish after they wrapped up the murder case we could have seen some clips of them as a group talking about the situation, it would've been a great heartwarming conclusion but we just assume they did all that. - the drummer talking about trying to fill in The emptiness of their members part cuz he isn't there, again just feels insensitive. And I get that as their musicians, but to the viewers we have not seen them struggle to perform after losing him. - and their fan chant for the song they sing at the end they're yelling the male leads names like he's a solo artist, but wasn't this a problem between their group, it'd be nice if they said the other members names on their own. - there's too much telling not enough showing. The CEO talking about how he's different on stage well let me see how much of an impact music has on his life, let me see how music is his outlet to release the stress from everything he's gone through. They say this is an idol show and yet I barely feel it, I barely see it. - the female lead being the only one not wearing purple at the concert, which is weird considering how much she apparently likes purple. This one I can let slide cuz she's the main character, our girls different.
I said I wouldn't say much but I did it anyway. I'd love for people to share other things that they felt or odd about the finale or about the idol aspects, as I felt like there was so much lost potential.
You're telling me this guy hides his iCloud password in his albums LMFAO by making fans question whether they got tinnitus..... Guys where do you hide your iCloud password 😁😁
