Couldn’t even finish No Tale to Tell and Our Universe. I would also like to add Positivity Yours, Sold Out on You and Still Shining to the list.

Watch Still 17 and Doona. He was great in both.

Unlike others I actually thought the last episode was well done (aside from no final kiss between the leads) and tied up all the storylines as well as they could have in one episode. It flew by!

I was crying a lot in the beginning with the dream sequence and seeing all the ghosts Yeo Ri helped, and then her scene with Ji hwan with the song in the background made the tears fall more. It was a beautiful ending to the ghost storyline, and then they could focus on the villain and Yeo ri’s family. I always loved Gang uk’s coworkers, so was always happy with their fun dinner and work scenes.

I just wish we had some more scenes between the leads because they were definitely the highlight of this show, and there wasn’t enough of them at the end. In all, a 9/10 watch- would have been a 10/10 if the writers didn’t forget about the ghosts until the finale and made it into a chaebol power struggle. I still plan on watching the first 8 episodes when I’m in a drama rut because they were so good.

So tired of the dead vacant look she gives everyone. She has no other face on this show and makes it difficult to watch.

Does the bratty sister do anything other than sneer at everyone in disgust? I’m at the point where I want to FF her because she is insufferable and difficult to watch.

I think it was an excuse to see her. That’s why he also wanted to meet the pendant maker with her, even though she could have done it alone- it was an excuse to spend time with her.

They were honest and communicating together up until the breakup trope. Such a shame the writers had to go the cliche route because they were one of the most supportive and nontoxic relationships I had seen.

Thought the beginning of episode 11 brought this show back on track. Loved the yearning and sadness between the leads- I couldn’t stop tearing up at them, and it was sweet of Gang uk’s coworkers trying to cheer him up. Then we got some of the premise back with the pendant, but then back to chaebol shenanigans. Can’t believe after what the leads did, the Director weaseled out of getting in trouble yet again. Then they made the SML into a true villain at the end and made the cliffhanger into something that should have happened at the end of episode 10. Now we aren’t going to get a proper, romantic ending for the two with everything being rushed in the last episode.

What a waste of a great premise and fantastic lead chemistry. I will definitely rewatch the first 8 episodes again, then just the leads the last four (and maybe the coworkers bonding with Gang Uk). The rest is blah.

I am waiting for a show to finally have a person shove someone out of the way, and throw themselves out of the way at the same time to avoid it. It’s not that hard.

Nope. Definite change after the 8th episode.

I noticed that! Loved them and the actors on that show, so it was a nice surprise.

Agree, the main three they use are amazing. Definitely my favorite OSTs this year.

Why do Seo Hyeon’s parents treat her like a child? She’s a grown woman who has liked the same guy for decades, yet they are mad at him for not liking her back? Is that his fault? And screw the mom for picking her stepdaughter over her own daughter, wondering why Mu Jin picked someone who was beneath her perfect stepdaughter. Gyu Rim didn’t go to college because she had to support her family because you left them to fend for themselves with the awful father. I just can’t with these adults who act like dumb kids, while the one kid on the show is the only mature person on this show (along with the twins).

And don’t get me started on a stupid ED visit because the dumb adult-child ate spicy food. Then we have the cosmetic surgeon who is another adult-child constantly tantruming to get her own way. At least karma is finally catching up to her awful behavior. I just can’t with this show.

Show was a decent watch, but that was the most underwhelming finale I’ve seen in a while. Don’t get why they had to break up and couldn’t do long distance, even if she tried to explain her reasoning. They weren’t going to work together and he wasn’t going to move to Canada, so what was the problem? It’s like the writers don’t even try anymore. Blah

Completely agree with you that out of all the forced break ups, this one seems the most realistic because of Yeo ri’s fear of hurting someone she loves, but I thought they’d keep supporting each other until the end. I also don’t want to see poor Gang Uk crying, because he’s been such a ray of sunshine in this relationship.

Yu Geon’s father storyline has made me into a blubbering mess. Their scenes were so sad, but the whole town watching the movie together was beautiful. Then they ruined it with the stupid breakup trope. Why do they have to break up again? Why can’t they do a long distance relationship? Makes zero sense.

That would be hilarious to see, but Yeo Ri is way too respectful to diss his grandmother like that.

It’s amazing that they were ranked first and second last week for buzzworthy actors (and the show is ranked second), when they haven’t been promoting their show together as much as other romcom leads have. It’s a shame because they have such great chemistry together.

It worked- I definitely want to go to Singapore now and eat at the night market.

The above dramas had the most complete episodes without any fillers, and were interesting until the end without veering from its premise. Same with another great 16 episode drama, Undercover Miss Hong. Go figure.
