A total waste of time

This drama started out like something that will be entertaining, then they spent the next 12 episodes or so trying to answer the question of who the father is and the remaining 4 episodes was spent on total rubbish.

The FL in this drama is the most annoying fl I've ever seen in a kdrama. Very unrepentant and stubborn for no justifiable reason.

There was also no real reason why all the men love her except for the fact that they knew her in the past.

The ending is also the most unreasonable ending i have ever seen in a drama. No closure for the main characters, nothing.

A total mess but I kind of liked it

I know i am one of the few people that actually enjoyed watching this drama.

It frustrated me a lot but i couldn't drop it because I like the leads, especially the female lead.

The story had a nice message but the execution was so wrong and so boring. It should have been 12 episodes, that way, a lot of things wouldn't have been dragged out but it had some nice moments.

The FL's parents were the main attraction of the show, they were very funny and they made the show a little bit bearable.

The friend that was dating two guys also made for some special moments but they didn't really give them much screen time.

All in all, i think the show was just trying to pass a message of live and let live. They just want people to know that marriage isn't always the ultimate and to let people live their lives however they see fit.

Oh my God!!! This drama exceeded my expectations. I started watching it because of Hwang Jung-Eum since i haven't seen her on my screen for a while now but i ended up falling in love with all the characters in the drama, especially Yook Sung-jae.
The interaction between our three leads, the relationship between Kang Bae and Yeo Rin.
I love that the drama had suspense but they weren't heavy on it and each episode had a different case except for the last two episodes.
Everyone played their part well and the humour in the drama is A1. I laughed a lot while watching this and i felt sad for them too. This is definitley one of my favourite dramas of 2020.
I just hate the fact that it is 12 episodes long. They could have made the last episode longer but i still got a satisfying ending. Kudos to the team that worked on this drama.

I'm happy i decided to give this drama a chance this weekend. I wasn't going to watch it because of all the negative reviews i was seeing but i was bored and i thought I should watch one episode on Netflix but I ended up watching the whole episodes.
The story is nothing new but it is refreshing, the drama is fast paced and every episode leaves you wanting more.
The actors all did what they had to do and they brought their 'A' game.
The cinematography is one i haven't seen in a kdrama before and it just makes everything more beautiful.
Also, those saying the FL isn't pretty or cannot act can suck it because that lady actually acts well and I'm not even one of her fans but that lady is good especially the way she played her part as Luna.

Amazing acting

The first thing I'll say is that this is not similar to Signal, the only similarity they share is that the past and the present was connected through phone but every other thing is different.

That being said, Park Shin hye blew me away with her acting in this movie, wow. She is one of the actresses i like and i know she is a great actress despite what some people say about her but this movie made me realise that she hasn't even shown a quarter of her talent all this while. She was amazing in Call. She showed every emotion she was feeling through her eyes and you will feel everything with her. Kudos to her for making us live the nightmare with her.

Jun jong-seo was an absolute delight in this movie, I'm adding her to the list of actresses i stan. I saw her in Burning and i thought she was good but Call shows her in another light, her acting here will make you want to empathize with her even though she is supposed to be a bad person.

The mothers too did their part especially Lee El, that woman is good.

This is a movie that will stay with me for a long time and i know I'll rewatch it many times.

Amazing movie

This is a great movie. I will suggest people watch it and decide for themselves instead of listening to other people's opinions.
I was pleasantly surprised because I'm not a fan of zombie movies but this one is really good.
I think the lesson to be gotten from it is survival. They didn't focus on trying to tell us what disease caused people to become zombies, they only tried to tell us what we can do if we ever find ourselves in such situation.
I applaud how they showed us that the leads almost gave up and didn't paint them as strong people.
They are just two people that gave strength to each other at a low point in their lives.

A giving tree

This is a very complete drama, I loved every minute of it.

The drama is so interesting that I didn’t even notice the lack of romance until the very end.

Everyone acted their part well and the women in this drama are all so beautiful and good actors.

I like that there was no unnecessary love triangle, just a drama about life, office politics and the struggles young people go through.

Everyone and their story was so relatable and it makes us understand that life isn’t always black and white and the gray areas sometimes matter more in our decision making.

My only complaint is that it should have been 18 or 20 episodes or each of the 16 episodes should have been longer than 1hr.

I’m happy I followed my instinct and watched this drama.

Please note that this is just my opinion

I decided to return to this drama after i started watching Its okay to not be okay, I still didnt like it. I suffered through the 21 episodes and aside from Gianna Jun, everyone else in the drama was meh.

This is the first time that it took me like a month to finish a kdrama, especially considering the fact that a lot of beautiful people are in the drama.

The story doesn't make any sense, the lead actress' mother is a terrible being, Yoo In Ah wasn't needed (I'm really grateful this drama isn't her first project i saw else, I would have disliked her and missed out on her awesomeness). I believe the drama was popular because of the cast and nothing more.

I did enjoy the music though and the cinematography is A1.

The fact that se-mi and song-yi never really reached any truce as regards their relationship didnt sit well with me but then, a lot of things didnt sit well with me in this drama.

Just watch it for the beautiful cast

This drama started well, I was so in love with it because it was so refreshing that i didn't bother sleeping because i wanted to know what happened next.
However, the last 2 epsiodes was trash. It was like they got out of material (not that they had any to begin with) but because they wanted to make it the "mandatory" 16 episodes they decided to put a whole bunch of nothings together.
The cast did a good job though, kudos to everyone of them.
They had a good idea planning a story around plastic surgery and how much society bullies people that are not their standard of beauty but it's like they lost their focus along the way.
The first 10 episodes was very good and it excited me but things started going downhill from episode 11 then episode 15 and 16 was just a waste of time.
