I liked When the Camelia Blooms too. Her role is so interesting in it and the way she navigates her life with a no-nonsense attitude. It's so funny that Oh Jung Se bothered her as well in it although in a completely different way.
Kang Ha Neul is splendid too.

Exactly my thoughts. And O Jung Se is great in this too.

I really like this. Episodes 7 and 8 had me at the edge of my seat. The plot may be fairytalelike but it's really entertaining.

Yes, of course. IMO the episode was very calm and nothing really happened except the two leads not knowing how to solve their complicated relationship. In other episodes there was more story regarding their work, past and the other people inthe town and less conversations. But it´s okay for me since the leads finally decided that they wanted to be together. That was beautifully done.

I do both. LOL
I think it´s interesting what others think and sometimes if a drama is really bad reviewed, I try some episodes to see if they are right. I think everything rated 7,5 till 8,0 is up to taste. But dramas rated below 7.5 are almost always as messy as people say they are. But that´s just the case for me. Could be different for others.

I beg to differ. Even Hollywoodstars have to bow out to the director and the producer who funds the movie if the wishes differ. Of course they check the chemistry between actors in test shoots.

I doubt that LMH chooses who is his FL. That decision belongs to the production team and director.

I think the pace slowed down a lot in episode 6. But maybe that's just me. I love the show though and will complete it.

I really like the story so far although I could have lived without the background story regarding FLs father and MLs mother. It's a bit too much IMO. The trauma from her beeing mixraced and unfairly scolded by the villagers would have been enough. Also the thing with the rings and grandfathers last wish felt too dramatic. I really love the main characters though. They feel like real people. The FL is excellent. She's fierce and strong despite her trauma. The actress is playing her very convincingly.
I loved episodes1-5. I think the pace was a bit too slow in episode 6 but the end was beautiful. I hope Kang Hee can heal now.

That's exactly what I thought. Why is beeing a single parent beeing such a stigma still. It's kinda sad really. And probably another reason why the birthrate is so damn low.

I think that this is where the plot is heading too. It's unoriginal though. I would have loved if there wasn't a past connection at all. I mean... people can fall in love with someone they never met before. It's funny that this happens to be a groundbreaking thought in kdramaland while it's pretty much the standard situation in western television and movies.
I hope they won't include the return of the childs mother at the most unconvenient moment.
I'd love more emphasis on how Eun Ho gets his reputation back regarding his former profession. Maybe FL could help him there. Somehow their work relationship should alter.
I also would love more screentime for the second couple. I'd love it if the SML stands up to his father.

Korean "21 Jump street". I am in for it.

Yes. I love both actors and for me they are the most interesting characters here.

I never realized in his other dramas that his walk is so "bouncy". Its quite charming. Reminds me of Meg Ryan who walks very unique as well. Lol

I think that's nothing new. I dropped Brewing love too for that reason.
But there are also older examples like "I am not a robot" or "Are you human" which I enjoyed instead of the logicsl holes and strange setting. It's harder to find kdramas that are realistic and logical.

Yes. She was.

Happy birthday! I hope this will be your year:-)

What a great show! I really loved the acting of the ML and his antagonist.

That's not nice. She's a good actress and looks shouldn't matter. I'm from germany and of course we like beautiful people. But our TV actors' success depends more on the roles they take and if they act convincingly. But a pretty face and youth surely don't hurt.

I listed all the reunion-dramas. Some leads had exes, yes. But in many dramas I´ve seen that wasn´t the case. And since I watched many western shows in my life that trope seemed strange for me at first.
