I'm checking this out because i've just watched zhao yutong on nothing but you. Apparently it was... not a good…
The male lead's acting was so stiff, and even zhao yutong's acting feels a bit over the top. I'm on ep 9 and i still can't figure out everyone's intentions, motivations, i just don't understand why they do/say one thing and then proceeds to contradict it the next moment. For the sake of drama? And their inability to communicate is just, on another level. Not to mention alllll the tropes... i mean, it's not wrong to utilitize tropes, but here it's just feels... cringey. This is the type of drama which i have to leave logic outside of the door before watching it, i guess.
I'm on ep 13, so far it's been pretty entertaining, except that
The chaofeng-qingkui arc so far feels very icky to me. I mean, sure, both sisters' arc with their respective partners have been built based on lies. But at least yetan never really meant any actual harm to anyone. Chaofeng, however, legit wants to kill kui at some point, and now he's suddenly in love while still decepting kui. It makes me want to skip every scene on the void realm because it all just feels so vile. No matter whatever sob story he cooks up for kui, i just can't root for him for now. Poor kui, she deserves so much better.
There are some bits and pieces, which i think would make this a good story. However the pacing, the way the story was structured, the acting (in some parts), and lots of other factors really did not help to convey it properly. It feels disjointed, and the tonal shift between the lighter and the heavier parts feels too abrupt. The first half of the stories makes it feels like nothing happens, at all. But then everything was dumped into the second half and suddenly it feels like i am watching an entirely different series, its giving me a total whiplash.
I'm almost at the end of ep 3 and i really can't stand people around the FL
The heck, even the best friend keep pressuring her to accept the proposal from the ex. Girl, just go and get a new best friend, preferably one who is better at recognizing red flags on problematic men. Smh. Not to mention her scheming colleague (it's not even worth spending my brainspace to figure out that he's the culprit). Thankfully she got the two juniors that looks like they'll support her to the end of the world.
That aside. The situation about marriage pressure is just too damn real. People blaming her for her unwillingness to settle are gross, but sadly very common.
I was curious and looked it up. It is indeed discouraged. The only clear suggestion I found is that blood from…
I don't watch this drama so i may not have the full context but even parents can have different blood type than their kids, so, i don't see what's the problem? (More like, parents or not, what matters is whether the blood type is compatible, afaik. So yeah, now that i think about it, it is odd to point out parental relation as reason for blood transfusion compatibility)
Totally get that! I'm the same, only now just getting back into cdramas after Meet Yourself and this drama! Both…
I have watched reset too, it's pretty good! And i'm also planning to watch go ahead when i have time again. Thanks for the other reccs too, i'll try to check them out ^^
Just finished the first episode and I don't understand how the FL was supposed to be labelled as adorable. Despite her reason, the way she acted would definitely creeps anyone out. Not cute.
This is my first c-drama that i've watched after years avoiding it (either because awful dubbing, nonsensical/hysterical plot, or just overall felt very detached from reality). I find the set, actings, and story on this one felt more relatable than typical c-dramas, and it even has decent romance. Can anyone recommend more dramas like this for me?
Wow I'm struggling to finish the first 2 episodes. So many whiny kids, I feel like i've aged 10 years older. Does…
Finally managed to finish ep 6. The lieutenant's death was unecessary, imo. But i guess they need to give way for the kids to grow without their guardian figure. To give credits where it's due, the series picked up around ep 4, with the plot progression and character growth. Still, for people like me whose patience is about as thin as one ply tissue, finishing the first half of the show just feels like a chore.

Ep 3 and they really just planned to go out of school totally unarmed like they hadn't just watch people literally die... Like this isn't #1 on the list of how to get yourself killed in horror movie 101 🙄
I get why there's a 'lying' tag. Not only were the characters lying to each other but the drama itself keep lying to the viewers with the skewed point of view. At times, this method could be interesting, but after the 99th time it's just way too tiring, and sometimes it even creates inconsistencies within the plot. Still, an interesting drama to binge. Had i watched it real time, i would have dropped it halfway.
I started the show without much expectation and I'm surprised that 10 episodes breezes through without too many skip forwarding. I decided not to think too much about the lore and just enjoy the interaction between the characters. I like that they take the time to flesh out even the side characters.
Yeah, agree. His lil brother death is his fault, he shouldn't sacrifice her girlfriend feeling just for his guilt.…
I don't think it's really about sacrificing his ex's feeling but more to do with the reasoning of the accident. He asked his brother to bring the ring with him when they're going to meet, the ring that he's going to propose his ex with. It really was not Chung Ha's fault, but if he stayed with her he will always be feeling guilty all the time. On the other hand, his interaction with Dong Joo always seem to make him feel at peace. In conclusion, ChungHa is a token of his trauma, while DongJoo can heal it. So it's quite a logical reasoning in my opinion.
