Yes

There are many tropes involved in this drama - 'childhood sweethearts turned lovers turned married couple', 'lost child', 'lost memories'. What makes this so unique is the backdrop of The Golden Embroidery. Really liked all the aspects of the embroidery which were clearly explained throughout the show. All the actors and actresses did really well. Till 25 episode it went all good, but then I was annoyed how the evil female lead could get away with anything. Though after 35 episode, one by one truth was revealed and then it got a lot interesting. I would have liked to see evil female lead suffer more. I think the most pitying character is Lu Si Chen, I want to give him a big hug.

Can someone tell me how this show is related to Because of Meeting You?

This was a sheer waste of time. I was excited by the trailer, but disappointed by the whole show. It was too predictable. Don't get me wrong, I like slow-burn romance but here the romance was way too slow, which only started in episode 10 and they suddenly showed intense chemistry between the leads. The chemistry was really good but its potential was wasted. I skipped many parts and watched it in 2x. I know how the corporate world works, so I know how the bosses treat. Pat is always whining and annoyed when work piles up or his boss isn't satisfied by his work. What do you expect, princess treatment? He isn't exactly smart either...I honestly don't know why Jeng liked Pat. And Jaab and Jen's storyline was a total mess up. I only liked badass Ae. Would have loved to see more of Chot and Krit's story rather then the main and second leads. Watch this for time pass or use it as a filler before jumping into a new series.

Yeah this is also my favorite show. I am watching for the 3rd time. Still don't understand why there are so harsh comments.

Thank you very very much. Its good to know the opinion of others and their perspectives. Thanks for taking time and explaining it so beautifully.

Wei Wuxian died but no bones or his remains were found. 16 years later a guy called Mo sacrifices his body to awaken Wei from his dead, so that Wei could take revenge for him on his family. Wei wears the mask to conceal his identity and pretends to be Mo. But, eventually everyone finds out he is Wei once his face is revealed.

So, this is all by my interpretation...do let me know what is correct and wrong.
1. Myung Ha was a real person. He had a grandma who had died and he broke up with his gf. He wished to disappear and so he committed suicide by drowning. But he also wished there was someone for him to care and love him.
2. After his death, he meets a senior. The senior is a type of God, who gave him a book to read. In that book, there was a supporting character called Yeo Woon, who reflected Myung Ha's life(depressed, lonely and his grandma also died). Myung Ha expresses that Yeo Woon has a sad life and wishes to change it.
3. The senior designs a game with the book characters and adds Myung Ha as an addition. Myung Ha has to make Yeo Woon happy, but he can't be near Yeo Woon when the fondness is in minus...as it will negatively impact Yeo Woon(blue flame like thing around all stuff that could possibly harm Yeo Woon).
4. Myung Ha receives messages from unknown person now and then. Is it the senior?
5. If the senior was really controlling the game, then why there were system errors?
6. Myung Ha fails to make Yeo Woon happy and disappears. Everyone forgets him but that lady who calls Yeo Woon about the stalker, she remembers Myung Ha. Why and how?
7. Though he failed the mission with his last chance with pen, he wants to make Yeo Woon happy. Is this the reason that Yeo Woon forgot him or Myung Ha's disappearance the reason?
8. Myung Ha meets the senior again and since Yeo Woon changed the mission with the pen, Myung Ha returns to the game. Does that mean Myung Ha who was once alive is now in the virtual game and be there for eternity?
9. That time dilation when Myung Ha returned to Yeo Woon...what was it? Parallel universe? How did they came togther?
10. Does Yeo Woon know that this is all a game(since he changed the mission)? Or was everything was a game and the game's name is 'Love For Love's Sake'(they showed the end and final scene notifications in the game box)?
Please someone help me clear these doubts...maybe someone who read the manga and knows the story. Thanks you very much.

I loved it, but the last two episodes felt rushed and okay-ish. I like transmigration concepts if they don't mess up, and here the transmigration was done nicely. The editing and cinematography was the best part of this show. My favorite character was ofc Myung Ha, not because he is handsome and cool(which he is obviously) but I found him relatable. I have low self-esteem and my only wish is to disappear from this world, I don't see a purpose or reason to live. I often wondered that it would be good to be a part of a fictional book or game rather than being alive. That's why I could feel Myung Ha's emotions.
I haven't read the manga so I don't know if the show did justice to it. But, 8.9 seems a little hyped for me. I will give it 8. And can somebody give me the link to the manga? Is the manga completed or is there a season 2 for it? And is there an anime version of this show? Also check my spoilers and clarify...that would be helpful.

Thank you so much. Now that cleared some of my doubts.

Thanks for clarifying all my doubts. It was really helpful.

Ok thanks dear. Guess I watched the uncut then.

Ok. A couple of years ago, this was rated 7.5 or somewhere around that. I am someone who doesn't judge a show by its ratings, but I still decided to watch this later. A few days back, suddenly the rating was around 8.7, reminding me that I still haven't watched this show. Today, I am done watching it and I was left speechless. Why such a fantastic show was hated? Why this show is getting the deserved recognition just now? I don't know the reasons, but all I can say is this is such an awesome show and you will be missing out a gem, if you are going to skip it. Its available on WeTV with no subscription. Please give it a try and spread the word.
Sorry I like Lee Jong Suk, but damn Jung Hae In stole the show. He is too hot(even with a unshaven face...lol)

I had watched this in kissasian but not sure if I watched the uncut? Can someone tell me what's the difference between the cut and uncut version?

I thought I might not like this series much as its prequel since the actor cast for Jerry's character has changed. But, I didn't see any difference between the two actors. Mu Han did an exceptional job as Jerry, I always cried when he cried. This show highlighted the struggles of a gay couple so well. I really loved this show, we need more shows like this.

I joined MDL not long ago. I always trusted MDL before but now...
Yeah, I agree, people are just not educational about corneal transplant.

What's wrong with MDL ratings nowadays? 8.6 is too little in my opinion. And what's wrong with Day seeing again? Have y'all forgotten that Day hails from a very rich family, his mom being a star chef and all? Eye donations are of course possible for him, he would be in top waiting list. And what's more? There are people who sign up for organs donation after their death, which includes corneas as well. Families of the deceased can also donate that person's organs. All is possible if the corneas match for Day...that's it. Be positive and don't lose hope. Why Day seeing again is making y'all sad? Why people are seeing such a good work in a negative way?

1. There seemed to be a GL storyline but they didn't give a proper confirmation of that relationship or a closure...it seemed unnecessary. I haven't read the webtoon(And I no plans of reading it as of now) so I don't know if that subplot was present in the original work.
2. In the final episode, did Da Un dream the first half? He was at home, and his parents were cooking or something but usually they don't be at home...and Da Un ignored them and went outside when they called him to dine with them. Then, he meets Si Won and walks and they see a couple, who very much look like Siwon's parents, going on a happy walk. And Si Won says something before the kiss...what was that? I am not a Korean native, but I guessed it to be 'I love you too' with lip-reading, not sure if I am right. This whole sequence was good considering it delivered a few good kisses, but it seemed confusing...wish they did some coloring and editing so that it would indicate the dream more clearly or had Da Un wake up after the dream.
3. In the last episode, after they reconcile and talk about filming, what Da Un whispers to Si Won?
4. D.B.W on the guitar - I know Do Ba Woo said he had liked someone, so was the person playing that guitar his crush/ex? I guess there was planned to be a S2, but it looks like we are not getting it, so someone can clarify.
Thanks in advance.

So, this is coming from someone who has extensive experience of watching BLs. I had been putting this off because I thought of watching it after the S2 completes as well (I like to complete everything on one go instead of waiting for next season), but seems like there is a no S2 after two years, so decided to watch this now. Both the leads are handsome, their acting was good and their chemistry was chemistrying! The cinematography was as usual excellent as expected from a typical Korean production. The show touches issues on body shaming, insecurities, loneliness, family and social pressures, and they have addressed it really well. However, I did find some flaws in the show: read the spoiler please, and clear my doubts if you watched the show or read the webtoon.
"The celebrity and the chef" Did they hint To My Star? And I really liked the specs guy...Do Ba Woo, he was so cool.
Overall: 7/10 for me.

Actually I came across a FMV of John Jang and Jang Mi couple and so I decided to give it a go(I am a fan of rarely spoken diverse love stories). I knew they were side couples and this was variety show styled drama, but I hoped to have more of their on-screen time. The variety show starts only from 5th episode, and till that it was about ML and FL(more focused on FL). For me, my favorite characters were Sang Woo, Jang Mi and Ji Yeon. And Yoo Reum's parents were gems...they always called her "My Yoo Reum" and "My daughter"...they were so caring. Chae Ri had a complex personality but there was not much backstory to her...and I felt it was unnecessary. Though they wrapped up the stories of the main characters and some support roles, I can't believe they let Joon Ho walk free after all he had done before being cast on the show and during the show. I expected him to repent or get arrested, and that didn't happen. Overall, 7/10 for me.
