An odd Jdrama that I enjoyed enormously. Borderline autistic guy with impotence issues lives with girl who has zero self esteem. What could possibly go wrong?
The sleep/sex scenes managed to be mild and also erotic, and that's not easy to accomplish.
Really a fun binge-watch, which you will enjoy more if you just sit back, relax and take it for what it is.
Honestly, the lead actress is just a no go for me. She's thin to the point of illness. She should not be on TV until her weight is more normal. I think extreme thinness like that is a very bad model for the young women who are most likely to be this show's audience. For her own health and well-being, I sincerely hope she recovers.
Even if her weight is overlooked, her acting is stiff, flat and two-dimensional. She ruined Love 020 for me, and I say that as a huge fan of YangYang.
I'm just going to be a numpty about all this and say that both of these people will be made to suffer by social media and I want absolutely zero to do with adding to their pain.
What, again?? Poor guy. Maybe give his management company a stern talking to or something? Because if they don't give him something new to do, they might as well cut and paste him in the next one.
Ugh it’s just utterly ridiculous at this point. She broke up with you bro...like 5 times. And she’s not nice…
At least two of the characters in this drama need restraining orders and he's one of them. He doesn't care so much about her as he cares that's he's being displaced by a *single father*.
This the first kdrama I've live watched in a long time and the closer it gets to the end, the more my stomach is knotting.I'm guessing we're closing in on an ending where our lovers have to be tortured before they're together, or someone has to die or something.
I'm so curious about the story behind Liz's hair.... did she change it mid-production and they just never bothered…
I know. More than one of us has complained about the same thing! So amateurish of the film makers, don't you think? When you start film production, the talent typically signs an agreement that they won't do something like shave their head or mess around with their appearance unless the script calls for it--because it costs a lot of money to fix continuity problems in post production, or reshoot scenes. So either GMM TV didn't give a shit, or the actress didn't give a shit, which i think is pretty offensive, when you get right down to it.
ps. I'll try not to write any more comments about it, but it's just so ridiculously annoying.
I liked "The Story of Ming Lan" more than most every other cdrama except "Story of Yanxi Palace". Neither of these dramas suffered from the faults that plague cdramas. Both raised the bar for other cdrama makers, which is an incredibly good thing. I really want cdramas to be better, and they can be, as "Ming Lan" and "Yanxi Palace" show.
This drama has been licensed by Viki. It's the first Thai drama I've seen Viki license in two or three years, so I'm hoping that Viki adds many more dramas from Thailand.
FFS. Liz's hair color AND length changes back and forth every scene, sometimes within the same episode. It's ridiculous. Does the film maker think their viewers are so stupid they won't notice? Was the film editor or continuity director completely stoned, or what? So annoying.
The production conference news has already said that this drama will challenge moral boundaries, it's gonna be…
I like how this drama has started out: beautiful, sexual people who may or may not be trying to do good. I mean, aren't there enough romance dramas that are sugary-candy-perfect?
I wouldn't mind a remake. This is one of my favorite dramas, and I really like all of the actors (less so Ady An.) especially if a Chinese remake eliminated the very minor flaws of the first.
Which it wouldn't. We'd just get another version, with cheap CGI, a horrible sound track, dubbed actors voices and a terrible ending.
I finished this yesterday, and I liked it. I didn't love it, but it had several charming moments. Still, it's a Chinese drama, so the usual things that make Chinese dramas frequently an annoying watch, this show had them.
The FL had the usual very. bad. hairstyling. And the footsteps of the characters were stupidly loud, the way they usually are in Chinese dramas. [The hell's the deal with that? Is it a cultural thing? Why are the sound effects for walking so horrendously bad in Chinese dramas? Just askin'.]
