I'm currently watching this and I'm sorry to say that it's not the better version for me, it has good points but compared to the movie this still lacks, I don't generally like to compare versions unless I'm a huge fan of the source material or it changes some major things in the story, and here I find everyone comparing the drama to the movie so I kinda did the same~~
First the cast in no better, tsubasa honda was a bad choice for Futaba and her acting generally was Terrible but it was good enough, while Natsuki is just a mediocre actress, I think there were many other actresses who can act that would fit the role more, for Kou, I think Kaito was a better choice, I didn't have any problem with Masahiro Higashide and let's be honest, he is only hated because he is a shitty person not because he was bad as Kou, but I admit he looked a bit older to be a high school student so Kaito is better in this case, though acting wise, I'm not so sure he is better, for the others character I think some are better and some are worse ~~
The story is slightly different, the scenes are different and somehow because the movie and the anime are quite a like I felt this one is too fake lol, I didn't read the manga so I don't know which is more correct and that's why If I to compare, the series would be on the losing side, BUT !!!! If we just look at it as a different story based on the same idea I think we won't care much about those little details ~~
I have yet to finish it and maybe my opinion would change but till then, I wouldn't recommend this for the movie/anime fans ~~
Edit: Now that I've finished it, I stand my ground still!! This is just a stretched version and added absolutely nothing new, not saying they should have added non existent scenes and I don't know if they'll add more from the manga that we didn't see in the movie/anime but overall, nothing special about it~ The only good part is that the cast looks youthful enough for their roles ~
As expected from Taiwanese BLs .. this was amazing!! I enjoyed it very much, the two leads were great together, I usually find characters like ShunYu childish and annoying but here he was so adorable and cute I think it becomes him ~~ I also loved all the characters, the secretaries and HuiWang too, I admit I wanted to see more of the two leads together, I wish there was more intimate moments between them ~~ Overall great, I'll definitely rewatch it again ~~
I don't think there is much to say about this movie, it's simple and easy to watch. Mainly focused on the breakdown of the ML and his transformation from a very strictly religious person who tames all his sexual desires to a monster who is unleashed after one sexual night ~~ Aside from that, there is nothing, the whole thing is just that~~
I can't say I enjoyed it, nor that I ever cared about the ML, but it just delivers what it promises, nothing more ~~
That was .... Something ~~ First there are a lot of things about this movie, it's a pink Korean movie, so there is the "pink" part, and the whole crime investigation part of the story ~~
First, the director has an obvious fetish for women's breasts lol I don't understand the camera zoom at the FL cleavage during the interrogation lol π I mean we had a direct imaginary sex scene right after but the whole thing was bizarre, the sex scenes were .. um nice! I didn't understand the "bathroom" part TBH but it's not the only odd thing about the movie so we'll let it go ~~
Secondly, the crime part is intriguing enough, but quite long for an hour and half movie, I felt bored after an hour or so, which says something, and I also has a few moments where I burst out laughing because of how ridiculous the scene was xD like the random dining scene where the woman fed the detective out of nowhere lol and that's not a good sign for a "crime" movie ~~
Acting was super mediocre, below average in some parts, but good enough to watch the whole thing without puking or anything ~~
Overall, I would not watch it again, not suggest it, I only liked the end which was clever despite refusing to believe that this could be a perfect crime ~~
I haven't seen this yet but Japanese infidelity dramas are not my cup of tea, mainly because in most of them they idolise marriage to the point of "suck it up and forgive the cheater" limit which I don't really agree with, still! I'm intrigued because if the cast, and I really really like Takanashi Rin, like really like her to the limit of not missing this drama lol π But!! I don't know if this one is going in the same direction so I'll just wait and binge watch it, till then, if someone who is watching this happens to see this comment, please do tell if it's worth watching ~~
I'm sure it was said enough times already but I'll say it again anyway!! The Cast!!!!!! π€£π€£π€π€π€π€ What in the world !!! This is impossible to be bad!! I refuse to believe that it'll ever be lacking anything!!! It's already perfect IMO lol jk, I just hope it'll be as good as our expectations!!
For me this wasn't funny, it's just a slice of life family drama about 3 daughters and their family and romantic relationships, the stories are intriguing enough, and I expected to enjoy it more but it wasn't as great as the comments make it, still it's a good watch ~
It's not that bad after the second or the third time of rewatch .. that of course if you choose to rewatch it lol I mean, for me, I've seen a lot of deviated ideas in mangas/anime/Japanese dramas that I am not by any means surprised by this lol I would even go as far to say this could be just a fetishised idea that the writer had xD But .... I totally understand the negative comments, I personally don't like it that much I think it's quite misogynistic but am I surprised??? Nope!! Do I crave weird stories with fucked up ideas sometimes?? Yeap!! And this checked the box~~
Every single character here is fucked up and totally insensible and peculiar but the reason I actually somehow liked this is because I feel fascinated about characters like Hongyo -aside from the boner part of course I'm not a weirdo- but people who can't explain themselves and their emotions well, also have a problem showing much of facial expressions -that part we both have on common lol- specially when someone confess to them is something I find interesting π€ Beside that I don't think there is anything likable about it, but at the same time it was short enough to be enjoyed without dragging on, the end was a bit abrupt but not bad ~~
Fantastic!! It was the best mixture of fun, drama, youth and family genre all in one, I really enjoyed it ~~ I loved every character and I like how they ended everything, highly recommended ~~
AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! EP 10 IS NOT THE END!!!!!! now I'm having an anxiety attack because I'm scared it's gonna be a sad ending!!!! I may not watch the last EP if it's sad, I'll just stick to the imaginary abrupt end of EP10 ... No no!! That's too much pressure for me, and I generally watch dramas to escape stress in reality!! TO HAVE ANOTHER TYPE OF STRESS IS JUST NOT HEALTHY FOR ME!!!!! Now I'm genuinely regretting my life choices, mainly the one including starting this drama π
It's like Provoke X Maid's revenge .. by now all Chinese miniseries are the same main plot with subtle differences ~~ We don't mind a good revenge or marriage of convenience plot, but marry the father, love the son? Nah!! π π
Started it because I was too impatient to wait one more day for the finale xD And I have to say I missed them.. There are a lot of good points and also some negative ones too, the good points include the amazing cast and brilliant story, I admit I was smacking my chest every single time the lead had to lie or get separated somehow,, I was like get together already!!!!! This is the second part!!!! I'm not even that relentless about my own relationship, but those two got me rooting for them like an idiot!!! ~~
Another good thing is how the story is going, this part Is basically the first part in disguise, except there is more development in the romance part, I hardly felt bored, I may have skipped some of the king's scenes because that MF pisses me off, but aside from that the drama is hardly skippable ~~
One of the negatives, for me it's a personal thing but there are a lot of hateful characters in this part compared to the first one, specially Ryang Eum, I wanted to smack his face every single time he appears on the screen!! He really pushes all my buttons, of course shout out to the cutie Kim Yun U for playing the most annoying character like a pro ~~
On the other hands I loved the sweet tiny moments of JongJong and GuJam, the are perfectly adorable and sweet β£οΈ and thank the lord for EP 8-9 ... They were like a cold glass of water on a hot sunny day πππ
Nothing more to say, i really liked it, mainly because of the top notch performances and the surprisingly funny scenes scattered here and there ~~

I don't know I don't think a week would make me calm down, I'll probably be overthinking about how it ended lmao π

I loved all the 3rd EPs for each season... Which are ep3, ep7, ep13... With ep7 at Top
We don't mind a good revenge or marriage of convenience plot, but marry the father, love the son? Nah!! π π
Not impressive but not bad ~~
And I have to say I missed them..
