The series was surprisingly good. It was very unique in the sense that I have not seen anything like it. It’s very rare to see K dramas they integrate tribes and secular world into a traditional show. It was very unique indeed. I can honestly say that I got a lot of laughs while watching this. It was sweet and had a few touching moments to it. There was definitely a lot of fight scenes that were really great.
What I like most about this series was that the female lead was strong and smart, although she was somewhat clueless at times she still prove herself to be quite clever and no pushover.
What I did not like about it was that after the 28th episode got a bit draggy. I suppose it could’ve been wrapped up rather nicely with 20 episodes instead of 30.
The ending was good but I get in my feelings when they turn a bad guy good in the final moment. Other than that it’s great. I recommend this if you’re looking for something sweet, funny and action filled.

The series was not awful but I got to tell you, I have no idea how many times I rolled my eyes while watching this. It was the typical cliché Japanese drama. Naïve female falls in love with a guy. Guy is outwardly indifferent but our naive person is persistent even went neglected, insulted and etc . What disturbed me most about this series is that it seem to glorify the naivety of the female lead. She was clearly talented but also very naïve. I mean that in the nicest of ways. I am noticing that this is a pattern for many Japanese drama. The female lead is very naïve and often follows around or chases behind someone that blatantly disrespect them. Even though there was a reason for it, I found it kind of disturbing that after so many things took place, her feelings were consistent. I can’t recommend this one. I don’t like you, I hate you, leave me alone, I love you.

Series revolves around a female lead who experiences a situation and grief. She returns home after a long time overseas and tries to pick her life up over again. The series would have been better if it made more sense. The acting was absolutely amazing. The cast fit their roles perfectly and the scenery was fitting for this show however I have never rolled my eyes as much as I did while watching this show. The reason for this is I am absolutely annoyed by these sacrificial females and this long lost love cliché. I absolutely do not know of any person who broke up with someone and waited for them for seven years and not moved on. This is a pattern that I have noticed with a lot of these K dramas. you have a boyfriend or girlfriend that you loved and you never fall in love again until you meet them 10 to 15 years later. It’s absolutely unrealistic and although I know this is TV drama I wish that they would make it somewhat more realistic. This is a fair warning you will be annoyed with the amount of drama between the two leads. And I don’t mean crazy drama I mean extreme mellow drama where someone’s always crying or heart broken or sad. It’s frustrating because they create their own drama, and sadness with the choices they make and then they’re sad which is almost like they have no common sense. Male lead did things without being clear or communicating with the female lead and expected her to understand and love him anyway even though the things he did would cause the average female to distance themselves or not even communicate with them. But the writers completely disregarded the males ridiculous and sometimes rude behavior and gave an exception to it because of his love. Sadly love this not look like that so it made no sense to me. They gave no explanation as to how the female lead ended up overseas or how things really took place unti it was nearly done. I do not recommend this for any hopeless romantic‘s or any romantic comedy viewers at all .
This is not a sweet romance. This is not a romantic drama. This is a bucket of self inflicted grief and ridiculous reasoning. If you’re into that sad type of love you may enjoy this but I most certainly did not.

I screamed so many times watching this series. Loved the plot. Look a like takes place of king. What happens when the fake is better than the authentic and it shows? The show was absolutely amazing. It was funny, up beat, heartfelt and at times intense. I feel a bit wicked because I celebrated one of the villains demise with one of those joyous screams but who cares it was so rewarding for me as a viewer to see such karma. I waited until it was completely subbed to watch it and I’m so glad I did. I will say that the crowned clown was anything but a clown. The loyalty, pureness, and determination for righteousness was on an epic scale. This male lead officially has a new fan. When I say his acting was on point, I mean it was on???????? point ????????. Playing to roles too ????. The entire cast was awesome. Ending was pleasing, can’t complain too much but I was hoping something just as grand as the series itself. Still quite please though. I got my closure. On to the next.

I’ll be the odd ball again and say this one is hard pill to swallow. I personally was/am having a hard time connecting with any of the characters. Although they appear to be people with internal struggles it still just feels like it’s missing something. Dumped by your love years ago, meets him again, gives cold shoulder and then all of a sudden friends again. The level of pain displayed does not match with the ease into it again. So far there is 70% hospital drama, 10% family issues and 20% romance/in my feelings. Makes for a good hospital drama but not so much romance drama for me. Acting is good but somethings missing for me, maybe emotions. Had to drop it.

Hard pass

This is suppose to be a sweet romance series but I couldn’t really like it so much. The female lead seeme to play so many games that I started to find her self centered. Of course we have access to her internal monologue but it didn’t help her character. I found her manipulative and arrogant. She would do things that would bother her partner and she turns it around and he ends up apologizing to her even thought she should be apologizing. The second encounter was terrible as well. She was rude and snobbish to get rid of him. Even the 2FL character was annoying.

Sorry, I don’t find the character’s behavior cute, innocent or funny, just arrogant, judgemental and more. I’ll admit, she got better but the games killed it for me.

Don’t do it. Messed up ending.

This was definitely heartbreaking but the writers turned it into something more. The took a characters heartbreak and turned it into selfishness on another level.


Please don’t read below if you don’t want the spoiler. It’s definitely a summary of he tragic events. 😩.


A couple (not close at all) loses their soon due to an accident (he left the house at night looking for them). The wife blames the spouse and mistress because she went to find them, therefore she wasn’t at home (like babysitters don’t exist).

In summary; child is hit by a car while outside at night, in the rain looking for his mom, who just so happen to be going to confront her husband who she already knew was cheating, really no shocker., the person that caused it didn’t see him, didn’t realize. The driver and mom falls in love and get married then the case is solved. Stepdad who by the way is amazing, loving, patient and loyal is revealed to had been the driver. Sadly he wasn’t even aware that it happened. But no forgives or mercy granted. She doesn’t forgive him, he goes to jail and she just so happens to keep his son forever. Clearly she never loved the man. I can imagine the kid growing up and finding his dad or asking this woman questions. The lies will create a sequel.

Totally depressing.

This was a very sweet, realistic and unique series. What I enjoy most about this series is that it was not cliché in any sense, the relationship that was developed was realist and genuine. There were no supremely crazy ex-girlfriend’s or relatives. There was no ridiculous triangle. It was simply Sweet. Of course we have the arrogant male in the beginning but that behavior didn’t last longer than an episode. It was quickly turned into something more sweet and real. I loved the female lead. She was determined, hard working, honest and loyal. The chemistry between the leads was great. The ending was great. The family relationship was great. So glad the writers didn’t mess this up with stupid complications. Loved it.

Plot is nothing new. Different cast same fashion drama. I was so hopeful, but this feels like another “our glamorous time.” It does have a more youthful vibe to it but still a bit slow. Episode 1 was catchy and gave hope but then ahnnn. I don’t do rolller coasters and this definitely feels like one.

Ep 1-13 male chases female
Ep 14-15 finally a relationship
Ep 16- the breakup
Ep 17 and, the pursuit begins again.

That type of roller coaster.

Overall it’s okay. I like the leads and have seen many of their works. They are great. Scenery is good, acting is good,fashion sense is good.

Down side: I hate the cat and mouse game and I’ve seen at lease 2 other series that have wealthy guy meEts up and coming fashion designer.


I am a fan of the female leave as well as the male lead but I really didn’t feel a great chemistry here. Another thing is they have a female lead as an emotionally incompetent character. You know the type, the type that does things that affect other people and she is not aware of the consequences of her actions or how her actions have hurt or hindered anyone. She is unaware of the sacrifices that are being made for her and the things that are love one is doing for her. This goes on until someone tells her. I hate the fact that this went on and see did Nite no. The reality is any person could realize the time, love and sacrifices people made for them but this female with oblivious which made her character annoying. Most of the time you somewhat hope they both end up with someone else.

There are a few things that are quite hilarious but that just does not make up for the poor chemistry and the insensitive or ignorant female lead. who works for a person they constantly Platz against your boyfriend. It’s ridiculous.

Episode 1 was lively, funny ? and engaging. My first feeling about this series after watching episodes one through 10 were “awwww how cute” and “ouuuu this is going to be good.” The series starts out at a very fair pace and somewhat picks up along the way. I know that this series has been described as a romantic comedy and I do get the feeling that there are some comical elements to this and definitely lots of little cute scenes but I will also say that there is some depth to this which is very rare for romantic comedies. What I mean by that is that this seriesseries managed to give you a good laugh and make you smile but at the same time it also manages to invoke various emotions in you. Some of the characters can easily be seen as ourselves in our every day lives whether it’s love, family, work or friendship. This series seems to embody work life, family drama, comedy and internal things. I am truly surprised. I am also a bit sad because I chose to start watching before it’s fully completed and I was in a waiting mode.

Ep 10-16Welp, it’s over and it was enjoyable. I enjoyed that it wasn’t too complex however I honestly felt like it was missing something. After the mid series build up with the dun dun duuun moment there was never a really big comeback moment, it sort of just happened. You the way the villain wins and the good guy starts plotting and you get excited. I got excited but it was like annh. The ending while not horrible just seemed to be missing some spice.

I was truly not prepared for my eyes to be watering as much as they were while watching this series. I binge watch the series because at the end of each episode I was just couldn’t wait to see what would happened next. It was just that good.
The series revolves around the “fated” one night stand and as a result of that we all know what happens.. The interesting thing about this series is how it’s different from all the other series of the same genre or caliber I.e, oops here comes a baby. They didn’t drag the series out. There were no lengthy fights and most importantly no psycho ex. It covers the relationships of the 2 leads and how they attempt live with and/or solve the situations they encounter. I will admit that there was not a significant amount of romance in this series however the emotions, the acting, the conflict, the pain and realizations were astounding. These actors were amazing. A must watch. But be sure to get the Kleenex.

Simply amazing. A foreigner enters a different land but still manages to stay true. I absolutely love the actors in this film. They’re chemistry was amazing. The two main leads were entertaining as well as lovable. I enjoyed watching it. It was the opitomy of a romance series. Not too over the top. It was really sweet, not your typical cheesy romance but a true development of something pure. I recommend this seems to anyone who is looking for a heartfelt, romantic series to watch. It has action, politics, that one crazy relative as well as the one on realistic relative relative. I finish this series in one day because it was just that good

If your looking for a cute romance, this is not it. Main leads share little scream time. More screen time is giving to second lead. I can’t complain, the second leads interaction was so much for entertaining to watch. Boy meets girl, boy hates girl then boy likes girl. Not sure how it happened but it still wasn’t interesting.

This series is pretty upbeat. It is also light and funny. There is something interesting happening every episode so you really won’t get bored. There are antics, plots and humor left and right and then a tug of emotion. Sadly I have developed a severe case of second lead syndrome and I’m having a hard time enjoying the show because of what I believe will most like happen. I have no idea what the writers were thinking. They gave me so much screen time to the second lead that you feel that he is the main lead. The level of interaction and communication between the second male lead and the main female lead is so funny and entertaining to watch that you will absolutely have a hard time disliking him even though he schemes. They gave the second male lead a character who is not only smart and humorous but also a good fighter but also with a hidden tender side. Then there’s the real male lead who was originally portrayed as a uncaring cold individual but also as masked caring person. Nothing about his behaviors made sense to me.
Friendly warning: Don’t get to attached male leads, the outcome can only go one way.
The female lead does a great job and her acting appears so natural that I’m quite certain it’s her true personality.

The character relationships between the main lead seemed excessively rushed and unnatural based on screen time as well as the era. If you watch you’ll see what I mean. For her character to have such morals she umm.... without thought to era or customs/traditions. That to me was weird.

Oh yeah, not sure if there was a true plot. After 30 eps I officially stated rushing through stupid convos of non main leads.

I will warn you that you’ll get a bad case of the second lead syndrome. Our second lead appears to get more screen time than the supposed lead and its interesting that his chemistry is better than the lead as well. Although he has a side that is a bit wicked, the banter between them is amazing.

Short and sweet. 5 episodes, average 11-15min each episode. Short series about getting back out here after experiencing a heartbreak. No depth due to the shortness but I’m certain if it were a little longer it would have been much better. No crazy ex, in-laws or extreme drama.

Don’t expect an average episode, chemistry or romance. Just think you’ll watch a collection of related tales summed up within 1hour. Again it was short and sweet and had a sweet ending.

Sad

The series was interesting. It started out a really nice pace. The interaction between our leads was enough to pull you in. It was upbeat and had a bit of intrigue and comedy to. You will also see some mystery. For the most part both leads have some hidden secrets and etc but that doesn’t take away from the overall plot.

The series is one that I would place in a romantic comedy/ mystery/drama. While there were many comical aspects it really seems to take a more serious turn near the end. It switched back and forth and for me it ended in sadness. I don’t know I’d I believe in “bitter sweet.”

You’ll get your manipulative cast member, the loyal member and the misunderstood one as well. Overall I enjoyed watching it until it got to the last few episodes. It was not pleasant. The ending was not happy for me although some may say different. Because of this I could not rate it higher. Be warned spoiler below:


*************

After all of the struggle to get to a loving understanding, things fell apart and our female lead essentially falls into a coma in the end. Aka eternal sleep, leaving our male lead gloomy. For a romantic comedy, this wasn’t funny too me.
