Shining for the Umbrellas
This is a story about a girl who assumes a bunch of stuff and the boy who dare not speak... Exploring the land of what ifs, what I do not know can actually hurt me and a bunch of other stuff in celebration of fireworks, fluff and a whole bunch of beautifully used umbrellas... There is a slight time loop in this drama, of trial and error learning from misstakes and desperately trying to change things that kept me wondering throughout the show, keeping me on my toes and giving me a nice selection of both predictable and less predictable twists.
The mom is annoying at first but as the show moves a long I find the grown ups to be some of the better, less frustrating grown ups found in C-dramaland. Though I will admit that I was highly frustrated at the leads lack of communication skills more than once I did find myself falling for both them and the people around them. As this show truly did give me a whole bunch of lovely friendships and people growing together.
There is also a whole bunch of light stalking and people getting beaten up, a bunch of wrist grab and run... but there is not a single scene of the male lead forcing himself on the female lead, not even the pin up against a wall. So if you are in to that this is not a great place to find it, and while the chemistry between the leads is really good . There is still a lack of good kissing scenes, ensuring this drama will probably not get the steaming kiss tag and is certain to disappoint all those kiss lovers out there... Luckily there are slow mo gazes, falling in to your arms type of deals in here to cater to the romance lovers.
All in all this was an enjoyable watch, with a good balance between the frustrations, fluff and toes.
