Any English subs?

I can't help but wonder if this season was fixed. There's so much chance involved in the games, I find it very hard to believe that one person could be so dominating and come up with the best counterintuitive strategy to win almost every time. Dong-min is clearly an incredibly smart and strategic player, but his consistent domination makes me suspicious.

I was enjoying it up to ep4, which was terrible, so I dropped it. Narumi Riko was great though, and Ogata Ken is a legend.

I enjoyed the first half of the show, especially because of Jang Na-ra's lovable character, but when I saw where the show was headed in episode 11, I dropped it. I don't need to torture myself like that.

Thanks for letting me know!

The ML is such an arsehole. Sam-soon's ex is even worse. She has to put up with so much garbage and violence during the show, it's really aggravating. I think she would have been much better off with that blind date that Hyun-bin interrupted 3 times. And all of the drama of the last episode is due to the wrong mailing address? Give me a break. If it weren't for Sun-ah's sassy performance and the show's more mature and realistic attitude towards love and dating (at least some of the time), I would have dropped this early on.

I wish Korean dramas and movies didn't have so many gratuitous scenes of protagonists sitting on the toilet and going poop.

Thanks!

Thanks, is the sub file available separately?

Dropped after episode 4. The slick Hollywood style of the series reached an embarrassing climax in this episode, with lots of dancing in the rain, running into the ocean in the rain, characters behaving totally irrationally because they value their feelings much more than all rationality, teary speeches, etc., and I just couldn't stand it any more. I don't know why cliched melodrama is so much more tolerable when done by Koreans (or Japanese) than when done by Americans or Asian-Americans.

Anna Sawai basically played the same character that she did in Shogun.

Also, when I read the book, I pictured the sickly pastor as this mild-mannered, scholarly looking guy. Instead, we get this hunky, kkangpae type guy who looks like he's raging with testosterone after having returned from his military conscription as a taekwondo master killer who can beat the leaving crap out of Lee Min-ho--i.e., a little bit of miscasting.

I don't think you're missing much if you never get around to it.

This was totally different from the Korean original. This version was too rushed for me, with weird, disjointed editing. I feel like they should have set up some of the final decisions a little better, because if they edit the footage to make viewers believe something only to pull the rug out from under them in the ending because they hid all the scenes that would have given you a more accurate picture, that's too manipulative.

I like the Korean original way better. But if they could somehow find a happy medium between the super long Korean version that gets too repetitive with the same arguments being repeated every night and this super quick Japanese version that makes you confused and hardly gives you a chance to get to know anyone, that would be the best version of all.

That was nice. It was more serious and less cliched than season 1.

This is one of the most underrated movies I've seen in a long time. It's one of the best Iwai movies I've ever seen, which is saying a lot.

Who came up with the ridiculous international title? Probably scared off 50% of the potential viewers.

A nice, wholesome, healing film to watch with the whole family.

Hye-won should find someone better than Hwi-hyun. He seems like a nice, hard-working guy with good looks, but he's lacking in communication skills and emotional intelligence.

This was the most beautiful and likable female cast I've ever seen on a dating show. But too many of the guys were poor at communication or emotionally immature, which led many of the girls to pursue Ju-won. I didn't understand how some of the girls could go back to their exes (Yu-jung and Sang-jeong), since the guys seemed so unlikeable (one of them didn't respond to his GF's long, sad text that she wanted to break up, the other criticizes every little thing that his GF does), but I'm sure there's lots of stuff behind the scenes that we didn't see on the show.

Also, they need to cut back on shots of the commentators crying. If done selectively and sparingly, maybe a couple times a season, it can be powerfully effective, but when it happens a couple of times a show, it cheapens the effect.

By the way, I saw that Da-hye and Dong-jin are back together, but how about Ju-won and Seo-kyung?

Thanks for letting me know Dylan!

Hul, at first I read the title as "My Sibling Romance," and I was like "whaaaaat!!!" and then I read the description and let out a sigh of relief.
