Nympheas

Episode 20.

Ahhhhh I feel like squealing during the moments they're alone.
He's so handsome and that confession was hot. I love it when men are direct and don't play around. Good for you LSC!

Also, "spring is here, animals are in heat" comment was everything LMAO

The nerve of this man talking about "I will make you love me again.".
Then she says "If you keep making me feel like a loser...", girl, what else can he do? He has done everything. Physically and emotionally abused you, was rude, lied to you, basically cheated on you, what else is there?

They're a perfect match, he likes to walk over people and she likes to be walked over.

I've been watching a few dramas recently which are/were without kisses or really bad ones, so this was a treat lol
It's a cute drama, great as a filler or something that will relax you after a frustrating episode of another drama.
Couples are sweet and romantic, there's some humour, and it doesn't annoy you. I've enjoyed it!

I'm so upset with myself for starting this before it finished. This is torture...

So what's the deal with the kissing scenes between the leads?

Oh I know what's going on, I'm just saying that I disagree with what she's doing.

I keep shaking my head at every single decision she makes.
She was upset when he didn't contact her after a kiss, what does she think will happen once they have sex? He'll propose? Nah girl, he'll be the one who'll move to Paris lol
Maybe he likes butterflies because he's just like them. Flying from one flower to another.

So I was willing to be less rude about Lan, but after the absolutely disgusting act in the episode 13, I wish she would finally leave him. I commented on Oh My Boss how in lakorns they always portray women as weak, how they forgive all kinds of abuse and let people walk over them and here we are again.
I understand their situation is different since in this case they aren't really in a relationship, but it's equally disgusting to me because he still wants her and his feelings are obvious.
I will become religious and pray to God on the day they give us a FL who leaves ML who acts this way. I guess my view of "strong female lead" is a bit different.

Anyways, so far my favorite line has been "I think we're still intact." lol That whole scene was hilarious and I really enjoyed most comedic moments. They're usually overdone, but in this lakorn they're just right.
Besides that, there are many frustrating parts. I don't understand how or why Rut would call Petch a crybaby when she's mourning her dad's death. That's such an unnecessary comment.
Another thing that bothers me is the way Lak is treated by her dad. She has been working so hard, but it seems like he doesn't care at all. His bias towards his son and his sexism is very obvious. I'm not saying what she's doing is right, but I understand she feels unappreciated.

Why in the world would you even think about if the other person loves you in the moment you found them cheating on you? I understand that people have low self-esteem which may lead to mental illness, but FL doesn't seem like she has any, so I'll conclude that she's ready and willing to be walked over her whole life. When it comes to work, romantic relationships, family relationships and anything else.
Lakorns are always like this and most portray women as weak people who forgive cheating, sexual abuse, mental and physical abuse, meddling in their business etc. Usually I just ignore it, but I got so annoyed during the 13th episode.

There's no excuse for what he has done and what he planned on doing. He would rather be a cheating coward than be a man he usually portrays himself as and be honest with her. The moment he had to step up and actually act like a "real man", he decided to take the easy way out and betray her. Disgusting.

I've just finished watching 15th and 16th episode and they're so ADORABLE!
Also, I knew that poop comment would be mentioned again lmao

I'm so glad I found this now and not when it started airing because I would absolutely hate waiting 2 months to finish it. I was able to binge it and it's such a nice drama.
I really enjoyed the chemistry of all characters. Romance, friendships, how they dealt with their struggles, how they were all there for each other to give comfort when there are problems and celebrate achievements. It really lifts you up and puts a smile on your face. Plus, they even added a dog and that makes any drama better!
8/10

It seems like something that would be made in Japan. I wonder if they'll be able to make me feel the same way I feel when I watch unique Japanese movies.

Yeah, I'm curious about that part of the story as well. I wish we didn't get only one episode a week, I hate waiting this long lol

I think that it wasn't necessary to make the breakup scene in a way they did if she would remain the same.
I'm just waiting for the other ML to appear. That might open her eyes lol

I think all of that combined was the reason why she left him, cheating being the last straw as you said. Otherwise they wouldn't have shown us all the other things he did and how it made her feel. However, I don't get the point of all of that and making it seem like she changed (the scene of the breakup made her seem a bit badass, which is where I thought the story would go) when she stayed the same. It seems pointless.

I don't know if she thinks she can play his game or if she thinks she can change him, but whatever it is, it won't work.
I find it a bit weird that she broke up with her ex, they highlighted the change in her behavior, but then she goes back to her old ways once she meets PJE. After reading the synopsis, I thought she would be different...

Exactly what I said. She has noticed the red flags, her friend pointed them out as well (btw I don't think there's anything wrong with wanting to date around and not commit as long as you're honest about it when asked), yet she still wants him. She'll learn the hard way lol

This drama is giving me the same vibe as the romantic, kind of sexually charged summer novels I would read at the beach lol
I find it quite enjoyable so far. It'll get really fun once PJE gets a "love" rival.
I would get upset over the ending scene, but we all know how he is. I guess Na Bi is one of those women who like to ignore all the red flags and learn the hard way.

Also, I'm still kind of taken aback by some scenes and dialogues since it's not something I'm used to seeing or hearing in Korean dramas. I suppose that's the Netflix influence lol
