momo

Also cdramas actors are way busier overall I feel. Combined with weird schedule of releasing dramas, we can get 3 dramas with LYN back-to-back, which doesn't really happen with kdramas.

Hahaha you're so right!

This is the theme of the drama - the male character has to be TRAGIC to be beloved by viewers, and they are playing that card to the max. But I agree, it can get frustrating at some point

I nearly spit on my computer at work hahahaha

100% true! Was just going to write a comment that FL acting frustrating does not mean she is badly written. If she's acting consistent, but with a slight progress, it's actually good and believable writing. Like I hate Scarlett O Hara in Gone with the Wind sometimes, but it doesn't mean she's badly written! So if the ML is acknowledging and telling her she's cruel and unfair, this means the writer is aware of it too and hopefully lets her get that character progress.

I need the hat, it's so cool 😭

I felt the same way about the first episode. I'd recommend you give it another chance and watch till ep3-4, many people have changed their minds!

We're not even a week in and you guys say that there is already angst incoming?? When did we even get time to enjoy the happy moments 😭😭 I can't with cdramas 😅

I don't know whether to savour the episodes or be up to date to enjoy the discussion 😆 This is a problem reserved only for dramas I truly love haha. With kdramas it's easier to decide, cause of only 2 eps weekly lol

Ooh I just realised that I really love this about this story. It gets so tiring when first episodes of transmigration stories are just the character trying to repeatedly break free, when we know they can't and won't. They saved so much time lol

He was one of the more interesting characters. His only out of character action was advising other law campanies against hiring Hosu, I really don't know why he did that when he really cared about him.

After first episodes, I thought that it's gonna be hard to build romantic tension when everything is turned into a joke. Especially as I'm not a fan of the transmigration genre, cause they have to eventually go back to their real life. But they proved me wrong, their relationship is growing so well! I find kdramas so lacking in terms of chemistry recently, but LYN singlehandedly is taking me out of my drama slump this year haha

SAME. The chemistry just wasn't there. All this time I was reading comments that there is not enough romence and I thought - are we watching the same drama? Cause I wish it just focused on the work stuff lol, the romance was a miss for me. The only chemistry I felt was between her and the coworker, and her mom and the vicedirector... imo, PJY is just a very mid actor with limited range and that's one of the main problems for me. Whereas in the strawberry couple the female lead being totally emotionless was the problem.

It is a very unpopular opinion tho, criticizing this drama is not easy as a lot of people will instantly turn into defense mode.

He's not the brightest crayon in the box

Lol, Park Ji Hoon is 26 at the moment. WHC1 was out in 2022. Do your math pls. I'll repeat myself -it's not like we can only have 16 yo or 26 yo. And my point is that if the leads look old enough to play college graduates, they do not look young enough to play high schoolers.

Lol, switching my brain doesn't mean that my eyes can't see that they do not look like teenagers.

Are there no 20-21 yo actors who can do it? Like a lot of main cast from WHC1. It's not like we can only have 16 yo or 26 yo.

Also, the leads really look their age. I don't understand why they go back to playing teenagers when they both played university graduates already.

I really don't get the "I'll fall for a handsome boy" trend i kdramas. First Crushology 101, not this. I know it's probably for the laughs, but it really makes me put off by the female lead.

He acted rudely to his costar few years ago, cause of his then girlfriend's manipulation. An old and exaggerated case if you ask me.
