Fucking painful

While I'm writing this review I'm crying and listening to the ending song in the background.

The story is about a good-hearted debt collector who falls in love with a girl who has to take care of the debt of her father who is sick. The story seems simple but it is not at all.

At the beginning you will find scenes that are beautiful and fun but then everything goes downhill and your emotions will be a carousel. Questioning many things, not only about the complexity of Zhang's character and her life, but about your own life and your past.

When Zhang meets Wu, he wants to change his life to be better for her but her past haunts him, no matter how much effort he makes. At some point your past and what you did will catch up with you in the present.

Zhang always considered himself a useless man and part of the reason he had that life was his father's fault. The inferiority complex that he has is also thanks to his brother, who blames him for the fact that his family is like this because of him. Although his brother cries after him and repents, belatedly.

On the other hand, Wu, despite his fights and problems, does not blame him. She wants to be with him. Maybe he is two sides of a coin, a person who blames his brother without trying to understand why his brother went that route, and a woman who does not blame him because he put himself in her shoes.

This movie in particular brought back a lot of memories for me. When my grandmother died and actually at her funeral there were few people. Her memory loss in the last moments. And my father's crystalline green eyes during her funeral. I think that is something that you will always carry in your heart and the only thing left to do is survive with that pain that never goes away.

On the other hand, it reminds me of my ex-boyfriend's family. Although I don't really have anything good to say about my ex-boyfriend, I remember that his father was in a lot of debt, I don't know (to this day) why he opened up so much about it to me, instead of telling his wife. And he asked me if he knew a lender. Clearly I'm knew lenders, not because i'm was involved in strange things, but because my father's ex-boss was involved in those things. When he asked me, I lied and told him that I didn't know any of them and that it wasn't a good idea for him to get involved in those things because he could get into worse trouble.

Because clearly the theme of loan sharks is well captured in the film. It's what happens in real life.

After I separated from my ex-boyfriend I found out that his father had gotten involved with several lenders and now they were in big trouble. Although I really didn't wish my ex-boyfriend anything good, I didn't think it would end that way and I'm not happy about it either.

I've already moved on and I'm about to get married soon but somehow I feel guilty for not being more persuasive so that this doesn't happen to him. Clearly I was the only one who saw his father as desperate and deeply depressed. But at the end of the day, everyone makes their own decisions and the consequences of them.

Just like Zhang, though he tried to change and actually did. The past will always catch up with you and make you pay for what you did in the past. It hurts but it is the sad reality.

I think what I learned from this movie is to be with the person you love, I'm not just talking romantically, but also about family. And do not judge lightly, because we do not know the person's past that led him to take such paths. Even when his father speaks badly of his brother, Zhang reprimands him and tells him not to be so hard on him and to be more grateful. He definitely understood his brother and didn't hate him at all.

The acting was so good, I felt like each character's pain felt like my own pain.

Obviously this doesn't have a happy ending, I wish it had but with that premise it was strange that it did. It's very painful, I think i'm would see it once a year.

It is not an easy film to digest and you end up crying buckets. But I think you should see it at least once in your life. It leaves great lessons and makes you think a lot.

You can get back with an ex?

Well, they don't really hate me much, but I don't like Indian movies because there tends to be a lot of excessive singing and dancing and it's not my personal taste, but here they knew how to balance this well. The dance was beautiful, the music was fun, and the clothes were beautiful.

It's good to see this because if you're not that familiar with Indian-Thai culture you can learn a lot of things. I didn't know they had so many rituals for getting married, it was fascinating to discover why those rituals are done and the meaning.

The story: there's really nothing new, let's just say that Risa is forced to meet up with her two ex-boyfriends. You will think that this is going to be a disaster Because whenever you meet a person who was your partner in the past, feelings are rekindled and even more so if there are two of you! But there was no drama about that here.

Risa acts very well and so does Tim. I'm like Tim's personality, he seems carefree but deep down he isn't. He is a silent observer. He is fun and also knows how to do many things.

About Arun he seemed a little bland to me, just like Monica. Although they actually acted very well.

Bright is a very versatile artist and that's what I like about him, he can go from being funny to a person who is passionate about what he is doing and serious. Plus his English doesn't bother me at all.

Bella, I'm sorry but why do you find something wrong with his English? For me he speaks very well. Plus she dances very well. Although it is not a good idea to ride a horse with shoes hahaha.

You can get back with an ex In real life I would say no, although it usually happens when the relationship ends on good terms. And Risa and Tim had very good chemistry and complemented each other very well.

Now I'm not telling you to go running to find your ex, okay. Sometimes only life takes care of meeting that person again and it doesn't mean that you will get back together.

I say the movie is simple, with many clichés involved, "funny" scenes that for me were not funny (sorry, I guess I will never find fun in the things that Thais find funny) and you will not find a great reflection on life and your past relationships.

This is just a romantic comedy to pass the time. And it's good because despite what I mentioned you don't get bored, even though you know what's going to happen. It's good because you're going to learn things about both cultures that if you're not as familiar (like me with India) you're going to find interesting.

If you are looking to see something light and fun, I recommend it.

"You can't like two people at the same time."

I stick with that phrase and what I'm going to say is very controversial but it's my perspective ok ?

Yuki is probably the worst character along with Ina. He honestly didn't have the balls to figure anything out, I don't even think he's gay, I think he's bisexual. But he is such an idiot that he doesn't want to acknowledge that he can love two people of the same sex and the opposite sex.

He really was a son of a bitch for having relations with another man THE OWN HOUSE WHICH HIS WIFE LIVED IN. You know what a big shock it must have been for Misaki to see that her husband was having sex in her house with another man? Go to a motel, for God's sake!

Ida is a complete disaster. I mean I'm not really in favor of polyamorous relationships or open relationships, but if both parties are okay with that that's fine. Ida is bisexual, I'm 100% sure, but he interferes in a relationship and selfishly wants Misaki to forcefully accept that this is "normal" when for Misaki what was normal was not sharing her partner with another person.

In the end I feel like Misaki was forced to accept that reality. It's not that she agreed, but somehow Yuki and Ida forced her to accept what she was not (there is the point that you cannot force your partner or your wife to accept that you want to have a polyamorous relationship or a relationship open because only YOU LIKE IT).

If it had been Misaki, I would have said "ok, do what you want with your life but don't want to change my essence. I would like not to see you in another life because not only do you want you to change my thoughts, but you also cheated on me. Goodbye". Honestly, it hurt me to see Misaki a lot and I think she was the one who lost the most out of all this.

Yuki and Ida were the ones who had a happy ending since they could fuck in the same house where Misaki was without any problem because, what does her feelings matter? True?
They two sons of bitches. I think whoever did this didn't even do enough research on the fact that you know, life is not black or white, there are nuances and bisexuality comes into those nuances and didn't do enough research on what it is." have prior consent before starting a polyamorous or open relationship."

I'm not being homophobic, I honestly don't give a shit if Yuki was gay or Ida was gay. What fucked me up was what they did with Misaki, and that they have the balls that they hang as ornaments.

I honestly do not agree with you marrying a person without first warning them that you are bisexual or wanting to cover up your homosexuality with an innocent woman who does love you.

The performances are the only thing I save because Furukawa was really the first time he made me so angry and I wanted to break his balls (and I love him) just like Ida. And give Misaki a slap to say "you know you don't have to change your essence or what you think to make two bastards happy. Live a happy life, with a man who really has his balls in place and get out of there."

I honestly don't plan to see this thing again. She made me so angry that I feel the need to punch out some of the anger I have.

PS: why did I say that I liked that phrase? Because I honestly don't think you can love two people at the same time. What you can feel is love for another person and sexually engaging another. But not loving two people at the same time and with the same intensity.

Side note: I'm not one to judge other people's sex lives. I think that as a monogamous person, it is difficult for me to understand these issues, but I try to understand it because well, as I said before, if it is really agreed upon by both parties it is fine and they can do what they want with their life.

The problem begins when you deceive that person and somehow try to convince the other person to accept your rules of the game.

Many people give it high marks because they think it is somehow a self-discovered self. But I ask, at what cost? At the cost of hurting a woman who loves you only for your own selfishness? Someone has put themselves in Misaki's shoes I think not, because all I read are positive comments about Yuki and Ida but Misaki She doesn't It matters, right?

I even remember that on Yuki and Misaki's anniversary, he made her believe that having sex wasn't important. But there you are going to kiss and grope another man in the house you share together. Yuki is quite manipulative and plays the victim while Ida intrudes into a house that is not him to do whatever he wants and try to convince Misaki and Yuki not to divorce because the three of them can live happily together, making her feel guilty. Misaki that him not wanting to share your husband with another person is wrong. This guy is really crazy, he is manipulative and only thinks about himself, just like Yuki.

While Misaki only finds herself worrying about those two bastards and asking for forgiveness for what she really feels.

Honestly, if this happened in real life, all three of them would be unhappy, although probably Misaki more so. And it would end up being a disaster. Because what starts badly, ends badly.

When I was watching this drama I didn't understand anything that was happening and at the end I was like what the fuck did I just see?

You know in Japan it is super important to get married and we all know that. But being with a person with whom you cannot have sex or children for 5 years, what the hell, don't even get married for that.

The office kiss scene was very sensual but they really put it in if nothing was going to happen. I think the best thing would have been for her to divorce him and be with her co-worker who he liked and was sexually attracted to.

You know this is a serious problem, and I know it from experience with my ex-boyfriend. You begin to feel that you are the one who has a problem, instead of noticing that the one who has a problem is the man.

My ex-partner couldn't have sex with me, no matter how hard I tried. Then something happened, and I found out that he had lied to his family and told them that it had only happened once, when we were never able to have sex and he had the nerve to tell his father that it was my fault. . Obviously his father did not believe him, and he told him that he should go to the doctor. But he was even so embarrassed that his father had to say that the doctor's appointment was for him because she was unable to understand that his problem was his and not mine.

I really don't know what happened next because I broke up with him. Not because he had a problem with not being able to have sex, but because he blamed me and didn't even try to make the situation change. I wasn't going to waste my time with a man like him, ever again.

Many times men refuse to go see a doctor, even though they know it is a big problem because they tend to think that they are "less of a man." But if that happens to you, stop being stupid and go see a damn doctor.

Ultimately, this can cause serious problems with your partner or your future partners. Because you know it's not just about the sexual issue, but you are causing serious problems for your partner. Your partner will begin to feel insecure and will blame themselves for the fact that everything that is happening to you is because they have a problem and their self-esteem will go down the drain. And that happened to me, to the point of thinking that she was not physically attractive, but with my current boyfriend I realized that nothing that had happened was my fault. And I was able to regain my self-esteem in myself.

So I didn't understand the protagonist's final decision either. Perhaps there is a slightly twisted message that women should endure these situations.
It's honestly one of the worst dramas I've ever seen in my life.
And I honestly don't recommend anyone watch this.

I remember watching this drama a long time ago, but I didn't finish it because I didn't like Makjang very much at the time. I still don't like it, but since it was a very popular drama at the time and it had nothing to do with it, I watched it.

I really have a hate/love relationship with Maroo. At first he is a complete son of a bitch, he didn't care at all, not even if he was extremely cruel or used any method to fulfill revenge on him. I loved Eun Ki in the first part, she was despotic but also kind, extremely intelligent but unfortunately she fell into Maroo's trap, and she ended up falling in love with him. Which I think was her worst downfall. Later, thanks to her lack of memory (this didn't really bother me much because in the Makjang, too many exaggerated things tend to happen) she becomes a docile woman. I wish she didn't end up with Maroo in the end, he really didn't deserve her and after all the hurt she had done to him on purpose.

Regarding Jae Hee, I hated her from the beginning to the end. I really tried to figure out her thoughts but I could never get an answer as to what she really intended to do or what she was feeling.

I think I'm very hard on Maroo, but honestly if it were me, I wouldn't have forgiven him. I don't know, maybe I would have preferred to get back at him a little.

The performances were excellent, as was the OST. You won't find anything new if you watch this, but it serves to pass the time and has actually aged quite well. What I didn't like was the rushed ending. But hey, it's a Makjang, I couldn't wait much.

I would see again? Probably not. I love Song Joong Ki and if you watch this you can see that her acting skills are on another level. But since I didn't like him character, even though he played it wonderfully, I wouldn't be able to watch it again.

A love that couldn't be.

I don't usually watch BL dramas and movies, because I feel like they don't represent the real difficulties that gay people face.

But this movie made me cry, I don't want to say much about my private life but there is a person very close and dear to me, who suffered the same thing for being homosexual. So I could feel the pain firsthand, the pain of both characters.

The two loved each other, but due to homophobia, the thought that they were sick, the beatings, neither wanted to admit what they felt freely about the other and they had to pretend before society to be accepted.

Time and circumstances separated them and although they loved each other, everything remained memories. But when you truly love, that person's name remains engraved in your heart.

The ending is sad but realistic. Many years had passed, each one made their own life and it was not realistic that they could be together, this time freely.

There is a phrase that will remain engraved in my heart and it is when he talks to his teacher: "help me go to hell, I prefer to be there now. Isn't that a place that homosexuals should be in? Maybe more people will understand me in hell."

Maybe God gave us that rule. If this type of love exists, it is because God wanted it that way. We were only human beings who set that rule to limit others from loving people of our own sex.

Love is love, no matter your sex. To say we have really advanced as a society to accept homosexual people. Even in my country where same-sex marriage is allowed, I have never seen two men holding hands. And if they do, there is the typical comment calling them "faggots."

There are many people who do not accept that their children are homosexual so they throw them out.

Sometimes I really wondered if we have moved forward or are we still the same as always, disguised as an inclusion, which clearly does not exist.

I hope there comes a day where people can love whoever they want, that they don't hide from society and people see them as ordinary people. Because in the end, no matter our sexual orientation, we are still common people but with different tastes and no one should judge another for loving another person of the same sex.

Totally a disaster.

If the directors and scriptwriters intended to be scary and terrifying, they didn't succeed at all.

I can say that the only redeemable chapter was the first episode. It didn't scare me at all, but the story was interesting. You know, my father has always told me "there will be no doors that you won't be able to close later." So that saying from my father fits perfectly with the first episode.

Then the ghosts, they didn't scare me. They made me laugh at how poorly made they were.

What the hell was the headless teacher episode? If you make a horror drama, do it right. There isn't usually comedy in dramas or horror movies ??‍♀️ And what was the last chapter? I really didn't understand anything at all. Not even the protagonist, let's go to none of the class.

The acting was terrible, I'm sorry, but it's the truth. Since I like the horror genre,

I tend to be very critical and strict. But here I only saw visors coming off and a lot of blood. Maybe that should scare me because it didn't scare me at all.

Thais are not good at making dramas or horror movies and that is a fact. I can only say that they did a good job with the "new girl" drama but it was because they knew how to handle psychological horror well. After that, nothing.

I recommend it ? Absolutely not and even more so if you are a lover of the horror/psychological horror genre. And even if you weren't, I assure you that you will sleep peacefully because this is not scary at all. It's just a waste of time.

And I watched this, only because Netflix recommended it to me. I wasn't even looking for it. The stories were so stupid and boring that many times I fell asleep and when I woke up I realized I hadn't really missed anything.

Well I went into this drama blind, I was only watching it because of Dori Sakurada (please make Dori Sakurada, have more main roles and not supporting roles).

At first he didn't understand Shinonome, he clearly hated her and considered her a despicable and disgusting woman but he continued to intervene in the relationship that Maejima had with her boss. He used a lot of emotional and sexual blackmail to trap Maejima in her trap.

When you get deeper into the story you realize why Shinonome hated her so much and wanted her to pay. But there is something contradictory here, it was actually the fault of Maejima's boss for being unfaithful to his wife. Maejima simply messed with him because she was a very lonely woman and the boss took advantage of her feeling of loneliness to cheat on his wife. Later Shinonome had also had an extramarital relationship with his boss's wife. So they were basically in the same boat, so Shinonome had no right to judge Maejima so much.

I understand that he understood that his beloved wanted her to be happy and that she is not willing to leave to her husband . But he targeted the wrong person and was also a bit (quite) hypocritical because he was doing the same thing as Maejima, if not worse.

He gradually falls in love with Maejima, but when everything seems to be going well, his boss's wife appears. She sees them together and with the warnings she had had from her classmates that she should stay away from Shinonome, everything fits together. She knew he was just using her, so she walks away from him, heartbroken. Because she Maejima had fallen in love with him and the feeling of loneliness and being used was gone but she again finds herself with another disappointment. So she walks away from him.

Shinonome misses her and wants to see her but stays away because he knows he has hurt her and she doesn't deserve to be with a man like him.

But when Maejima goes to see a house, she realizes that Shinonome had captured everything she planned to do with that project. So she realizes that Shinonome hasn't forgotten her at all and that he loves her.

So she goes to see him and they get together and finally start a healthy relationship, without lies involved.

The drama is short and interesting because the main characters are complex, there is no black or white in them, there are shades of gray.

I recommend it? Yes, it's short and the story is interesting and when I don't have anything to watch that's interesting to me, I go back to watch it.
The acting is very good and there are never any cringe scenes. And there is a palpable chemistry between the two.

So if you want to watch a short but still interesting drama, I recommend it.

More Dori Sakurada for me hahaha

I read the manga first so I knew what I was going to find ?

The protagonist is annoying, but since I read the manga I wasn't expecting much. Actually in the manga she is even more annoying, but Haruka softened the character quite a bit in the drama. So she wasn't so annoying to me.

I don't agree that there was no chemistry. I don't know how he does it but Dori Sakurada always makes it work.

I really don't understand why they compare this to 50 Shades of Grey. I mean Dori Sakurada's character was not a sadomasochist nor did he want rough sex. She was actually quite sweet, even in the sensual scenes. Maybe they compare it because the protagonist was virginal and Dori Sakurada's character was a rich CEO. But after that, there is no point of comparison.

Dori Sakurada is one of my favorite actors so, even though I didn't like the manga, I watched it because of him.

For those who don't like this... well, more Dori Sakurada for me, sorry lol.

If I give it a high score it is because of Dori Sakurada. I always like to see him act and he doesn't act badly at all. So more Dori Sakurada for me hahaha

I don't know why it has such a low rating, I've seen worse dramas that have a 7.0 rating

Believe me, if you watch short Chinese series on YouTube you will be scared and you will say "well in this case, the protagonist in the end received something of what he deserved after having physically and psychologically abused the protagonist so much."

I don't like to romanticize the fact that the protagonist is a savior angel who will change everything bad about a man. Because then I see girls in real life who have that same thought and end up dead at the hands of their partners. Nobody changes anyone, nor should anyone change anyone. People change because we want to. Men can appear to change for 3 months at most, and then they go back to being the same shit. So that message is too fanciful and harmful.

But that doesn't happen here, the protagonist never expects him to change and in fact, he doesn't change.

So the ending was coherent. The story was too.

And the chemistry between Ho and Janine was spectacular and they are great actors.

If you are too sensitive to these issues, don't watch it, but I always say that it is good to see what happens in reality and let's not live in a Disney story.

I'm probably the only one who enjoys watching this drama and I liked it.

When I started watching it I didn't even read the reviews and even if I read the reviews I don't tend to go by them. Since in 2024 very popular dramas have been made but I didn't like them at all. So I always tend to keep things simple and watch the dramas for myself to see if I really like it or not.

I liked the protagonist. She had personality and determination. It was fun to see in the first part how the protagonist fought with the protagonist constantly, his failed attempts to win her over (because in the end he ended up falling in love with her) and his attempts to separate his brother from the protagonist. They had a pretty funny and entertaining hate/love relationship.

The second part may be the hardest. Many say there were senseless dramas. I don't think that was the case.
If you know anything about Korean culture, you will know that they do not accept homosexual people, they see them as disgusting people. Given this premise, you can understand why Do han is so persistent in wanting to go ahead with the wedding, even though Ah Jung did not want to because had fallen in love with Ji han, untilpoint that he is too selfish and does not take into account the feelings of Ah Jung or Ji Han. But it is understandable, he is afraid of public scrutiny and the reaction of his family if they found out that he was gay.

Finally, seeing that Ah Jung, despite being the most affected when her half-sister leaks the photos with Ji Han, realizes that she is capable of protecting him by putting before the public scrutiny that she was suffering and that her brother took the blame for everything to protect him. and protect Ah Jung, he realizesselfish that he was being and that he was not protecting either of the two people he loved and considered his family.
So he decides, even though his grandfather asks him not to reveal anything (because he already knew he was gay a long time ago), to tell the truth. And leave the country for a while to calm the waters.

Why does Ah Jung decide to break up with Ji han? They had clearly been through a lot, so time away can make you reflect on what you experienced and what is really important for your life. Many people don't agree with people taking time, but I have done it, and in that time I learned a lot about myself, I worked on myself and I realized what things were important to me. And my boyfriend also reflected on some attitudes he was having that made us fight almost all the time and it changed a lot. Just like I did too and that made our relationship even closer.

On the subject of Do Han's ex-partner... many say why did he appear? There are ex-partners who simply come into your life to screw you, there is no reason behind it. He was angry because he wanted to force him to come out of the closet. Nothing else. There isn't much science behind it.

Yes, there were characters that were irrelevant but I didn't find them annoying enough to say "What the fuck?"

I recommend it? I don't know, that's up to you. You can check it yourself to see if you like it or not.

Stupid beliefs that can greatly affect a person.

It's always good to see Bua in a drama, because she is an actress that I really like, she acts very well and is beautiful, the years really make her more and more beautiful.

After saying this, I'm going to talk about the story. It's not complicated and it's also short.

The story is simple: a woman who, due to life's coincidences, all her boyfriends end up dying.

I don't blame the protagonist for believing that she has a curse or something like that. Everyone around her, her mother and even her friend (what a great friend, huh! To have friends like that it is better to have enemies) make her believe that it is her fault.

Even her mother forbids her to approach or have any type of relationship with other men because she truly believes that she has a curse and is even going to pray for her. When really the one who was hurting her with those stupid beliefs is her own mother.

Obviously, the protagonist, seeing that everyone blames her directly or indirectly, begins to believe that it is true that she has a curse and closes her heart completely regardless of her own feelings or her own pain.

Here comes the protagonist, the only person with neurons that work well besides the doctor who was in love with her, who doesn't believe anything about curses or things like that at all. Even though she develops feelings for him, she rejects him completely for fear that something will happen to him because of "her fault."But the protagonist is persevering with her and in the end he opens her heart to her but him suffer a car accident happens to him that causes he car to break down and although he lies to her so she doesn't continue thinking that she has a curse or it is her fault, she feels again afraid and left him.

Meanwhile, he talks to her mother and explains to her that she is not to blame for anything and has no curse, but by not allowing her to be with other men and limiting her feelings, the one who hurts her is herself and her beliefs. Upon hearing this, the mother realizes the mistake she was making and talks to her daughter honestly, asks her for forgiveness and tells her to do what her heart tells her from now on.

She also talks to the protagonist's friend, who is her cousin, and tells her the same thing. That she's not to blame and she's not cursed either (I forgot to mention that her friend had forbidden her from getting close to him cousin because she also believed she was cursed).

The sister of one of her ex-partner also appears and tells the protagonist that she was not to blame for her brother's death, that before she arrived at the altar to marry her, her brother was cheating on her and at that time moment he received a call from his lover, who wasthreatening that she was going to commit suicide). Her ex-boyfriend rushes to go see her lover, leaving her alone, and in the rush she was in, she suffered an accident. But she had nothing to do with it.

In the end the protagonist understands that she is not cursed and that nothing that happened was her fault and returns to the protagonist.

I mean, when I tell it, it may sound fanciful, but it's not like that at all. These things happen and more and more people have more stupid beliefs.
I have had to live it, not to the extreme of the protagonist, but it has happened to me. When I'm was younger, a stupid belief was created in me that if the people I'm loved stayed in the same place as me, bad things would happen to them. And this belief started because in order to bully my brother and make my brother get angry, they would take it out on me, which made him get angry and start a physical fight.

So when we both decided to change schools, I decided to go to another school that was different from my brother's so that nothing bad would happen to my brother at school "because of me."My parents didn't understand why, as did my brother, and I didn't explain it to them until I was a little older. When I told them, my parents told me how stupid I had been and that there was no such thing as a curse or anything like that. My brother, that we didn't talk much when we were younger, when he found out about this he laughed a lot and also said that it was something very stupid. I could see him, apparently happy, but it was not like that at all when he transferred school, they tried to bully him again but my brother already had a different mentality and with his imposing manner, because my brother is 1.91cm tall and has the physical appearance of a rugby player, they didn't They dared to mess with him with him because my brother warned them that they would end up in a hospital if they tried to mess with him. That at first he was like a lone wolf but he was approached by a boy, who became his best friend but then betrayed him. He also made a group of friends but his best friend also betrayed him. So his stay at school was not as happy as I thought. Furthermore, my brother is a very logical person so he usually believes in supertintions, nor in horoscopes, nor in energies, nor in ghosts nor in God. Somehow he always gives you a logical answer.

People have also distanced themselves from me because they believed that because I belonged to the sign of Leo, I would be a very conceited person, but when they saw me and were curious why I didn't act like Leo people act, they approached me and told me why. I was so introverted, I didn't have many friends, I'm was not very social and I'm wasn't the life of the party either. My response was "I don't know, that's just the way I am." Those who believed in the horoscope couldn't figure out why I'm didn't act like a leonine would, but they didn't find an answer. And they didn't find it because it is simply stupid to believe that the horoscope defines you as a person. Otherwise we would all be the same and we will act the same, when this does not happen.

The same thing happens with people who believe that because of your blood group you will be a certain way or that famous test that tells you if you are INFJ, etc. Just like the issue of energies. My mom has a friend, who got involved in a kind of sect that told her that her bad luck would end if she stayed away from her husband, she abandoned her family and do you know what happened? Nothing, her "bad luck" continued until today.

So yes this is true. People lately are obsessed with these topics and with tarot, spending a lot of money to find out how they will fare in love.

They are stupid beliefs. Sometimes bad things happen to you because of your actions or because you should learn something good from those bad experiences.

The drama is short and interesting so I recommend it.

PS: I forgot to mention that the protagonist is a nurse and has an enemy who makes her life impossible just because the doctor (who I mentioned before) was not interested in her. She exposes her past on the networks and shows it to the doctor, to the surprise of this girl. The doctor tells her that it is pure nonsense, it is just coincidences and that in reality what he was seeing was how bad a person she was because of her attitudes.

So yeah, stop believing in stupid supertintions. Just take the time to get to know the person. Because a test, energies or a horoscope do not define a person, they are their own attitudes.

You can't escape your actions, in the end the past will catch up with you.

Hee Joo apparently lives a happy life (I say, apparently because she has to put up with her mother-in-law and obey her orders) and is a well-known artist.

Everything in her life seems great, she is married to a rich man and doing great as an artwork artist, but her world falls apart when she finds out that her daughter has been beaten by a teacher. At first he can't stop thinking about her, she reminds him of someone from his past, but he can't figure out who it is. But Goo Hae-won knows her perfectly and comes to the school where Lisa studies, to get revenge on Hee Joo for everything she did in the past. A past that conveniently for Hee Joon does not remember.

Hee Joon is an artist of manipulation and victimization. She usually thinks she can get his way, quickly. She doesn't regret what she did and doesn't think about her past selfish actions (like abandoning her husband, Woo Jae and cheating on him). There was really no reason for her to do this. Woo Jae did not mistreat her and was willing to do anything for her (including hiding the fact that she knew she was cheating on him). But Hee Joo flees out of her own selfishness, without measuring any of her actions or how many people she hurt in the process.

She has a smile that might make you believe she's the victim in all of this, but appearances are always deceiving. Her smile is her disguise of her true, dark personality.

Goo Hae-won, on the other hand, is a physically neglected woman compared to Hee Joo but this is something significant. She is a person who at one time had a lot of talent but her dreams were frustrated, there is no light or happiness on her face. She but an insatiable thirst for revenge. The desire for revenge has completely consumed her and that is reflected in her appearance. She couldn't tell if Goo Hae-won's revenge went too far or not. Since after the whole truth is discovered, she is not happy. She has been left alone just like Hee Joo.

Many think that Goo Hae-won should have called the police and Hee Joo should have gone to jail but how long would it have lasted? Two years? It's not enough punishment for what he did.

Goo Hae-won gave him a worse life, a true living hell. Without the love of her husband or her children, she was completely alone, without love and without luxuries. Turning her life into a complete living hell.

In the end we see that Goo Hae-won dreams came true while Hee Joo lives hell.

In the end we can see Hee Joo contemplating the place where she disposed of Woo Jae's body, did she commit suicide? Probably.

It's not like he could take another path, if he came back Goo Hae-won would tell everything. That was the deal and his life had already become hell.

I recommend it? If you like revenge shows, yes, if you don't like this type of drama, it's better to skip it. The chapters are long, it's not a short drama and sometimes it gets boring so you might not like it. But it's just my opinion, you can see for yourself if you like it or not.

The performances were very good and the OST goes very well with the drama.

I was looking for something to watch and stealthily this series appeared. She was looking at her without much expectation, really. But it's very good, it's short because there are only 9 chapters and the episodes only last 30 minutes so you watch it in one sitting.

The only annoying thing for me was the side stories. Generally I like to see secondary stories apart from the main one. But it didn't happen here, I think they were quite unnecessary and boring to watch.

Regarding the lack of communication, you'll see a lot of that here but since I've been watching Japanese dramas for more years than Korean ones, I've gotten pretty used to that (I don't know if that's good or bad hahahaha).

Anyway the topic of sex was illustrated in a wonderful and true way. Honestly, I am one of the people who doesn't care much if a person is a virgin when they are an adult.

You know, sometimes it happens that you don't have much sexual appetite and you focus your life on studies or work, so the issue of having a partner usually takes a backseat.

What happens to the protagonist is that she feels that pressure from society and seeks to have sex, with people with whom she feels nothing. Many people don't care, but for many (myself included) it is important to have an emotional connection with the other person, because if you don't you feel empty and you don't really enjoy your sexuality.

When she begins to establish an emotional connection with the protagonist, she begins to feel good, even if it is just kisses because he is a person she is attracted to both physically and emotionally.

Your first time will always be a little awkward and embarrassing, so I didn't feel uncomfortable watching it, because it happened to me. It's a reality, it's not something that doesn't happen. It's not that when it's your first time you will be an expert in the Kama-sutra, you know hahaha

I think it's also important to do it with a person who doesn't have as much experience or hasn't had experience because people who have had experiences tend to be a little abrupt. On the other hand, when you are with a person who is in a situation similar to yours, it is much easier to communicate what you like, what you don't like, whether it hurts you or not.

Obviously the first time always hurts, if it hurts it is better to tell your partner that it hurts and to slow down, like the protagonist did.

I really liked that scene because it is something realistic and it has happened to all of us who have had sexual relations the first time.

I really recommend it, it's short and nice. And you will look at it quickly.

A story that I think I will never forget for the rest of my life.

I think I cried at this story when I was 15. How time flies! Now I am 28 years old.

I decided to write this review because I suddenly remembered Miura and it was Koizora that made me meet him.

I was just watching it last night but this time I didn't cry like when I was younger. Could it be that I've become colder? hahaha.
But I did keep thinking about how obsessed I was with Koizora at that time, and even more so when I learned that it was a true story. At first I didn't really believe that this story was real, I kept wondering, does this type of love really exist? Well, reality always surpasses fiction, right?

I still like the story even though a decade has passed. I think they are stories that never die and you will continue to remember them even if you are of age.

The chemistry between Yui and Miura was very good but I felt a little uncomfortable in some scenes, especially the intimate scenes. Not because it bothers me to see intimate scenes, but because they were recorded from a slightly strange plane lol.

I also believe that even if I am 40 years old, this story will remain in my heart and I will never be able to forget it.
