It was an okay watch but to be honest the best compliment I could give remains the nice ost! the acting was not bad but it was inconsistent, the chemistry wasn't there either. regarding the story... (I'll write in spoiler)
Dropping it. the acting is bad! and it's painfully slow! it's so slow that the movements look normal at 2x speed, and since it would make them sound like minions I won't be watching a whole drama like this! they should've let it be 5minutes long, why did they need to stretch it?
Done watching it.. this wasn't as great to deserve the 8.5 rating but it wasn't horrible either.things were just…
why was the cancer transferred to the manager Yang? It's not fair.. by what logic the transfers happen? why has her married life transferred to her as well?? she almost died by the same pattern but since fl broke the table she didn't die.
soomin married the husband but that was it?? she should've got the cancer as well! she only went to jail because fl's death was shifted to her ex to be killed by soomin.
the rich lady was ridiculous.. and ml's death shifted to her!
Done watching it.. this wasn't as great to deserve the 8.5 rating but it wasn't horrible either. things were just happening without an ounce of logic..
the romance was quite disapointing.. ml and fl didn't have enough chemistry. the other couples stories were too rushed!
Apparently I have already watched it last year but I have zero recollection of what this was about! I'm going to re-watch it as I'm checking ml's main role dramas ...
this is so cringe that I can't continue watching. dropped at ep 2. the acting is subpar... Thai version although had flaws, was better than this. (I didn't watch the korean one so can't comment on that)
It's quite ironic that the 'crash course in romance' was missing in this drama!I'm disappointed as I was looking…
the drama spend so much time to parade their yet to start relationship as an scandal and keep the leads separated and when they finally got together it shifted focus to the murders and the girl and her real mother.
the sudden shift to make a couple out of the fl's friend (I don't remember her name) with fl's autistic brother threw me off too... not that I disagree with him having a relationship but it felt like they just wanted him out of the way as nuisance to the leads relationship and.. it was odd since ml and him were on good terms.. if they wanted them to be a thing, they should've left some hints of affection through the whole drama.
It's quite ironic that the 'crash course in romance' was missing in this drama! I'm disappointed as I was looking forward to the romance yet I got some adults as naive as teenagers if not worse! what made it worse is that fl and ml didn't have chemistry (maybe due to lack of actually meaningful interactions that focused on themselves).
ml and fl didn't have enough chemistry and the story was dragged for too long so I lost interest in them. only finished it for the second couple! although they had little screen time their chemistry was great.
I liked the main couple in the first half as they awkwardly built their life and try to understand each other but the moment the second couple showed up, my focus shifted to them and started skipping the main couple's issues as they became repetitive overthinkings over miscommunications. the second couple's understanding of each other was top notch.
The synopsis sounds interesting! gonna give this a shot despite the low rating reviews! (though it's kinda understandable that novel fans might not have liked the adaptation, if that's the only reason the rating is low, it might be watchable for someone unfamiliar with the original work like myself!)
It was an okay drama. It felt a bit confusing in the last 2 episodes but it did come together somehow. the first half was definitely better! specially because of the right casting for childhood, teen years and the first adult Momi. the downfall began when she was replaced by Nana.. and the other lady who took over for the later years didn't fit either. when the appearance of a character is important they should cast actresses with similar feature.. also Lee Han Byeol's acting was better than both of them combined!
fl treating the crowd as fans after getting arrested was the same as what happened in 'why women kill' series. the way they shot it was way too similar! did they intentionally copy it?
it's a happy ending! (ml died defeating the villain but she revived him, kinda similar to how ml resurrected wu). fl's sister died and resurrected as Yan Luo's shifu. she still had her memories as well. Yan Luo died.
ml's friend (Zi Yu) just disappeared! they forgot he existed after ep 17! he wasn't even at the wedding in ep 20. thought what's even sadder is his character name is unknown! just once ml called him A-wu and that's it.
