yeah i suppose it does happen in real life but it feels cringey to me....just not a fan of encroaching on someone else's big day (even if they are close friends) when there are 364 other days in the year. LOL. but to each their own.

nice drama but ending felt rushed. wish we could have had more screen time with them as a couple. and definitely wasn't a fan of the proposal at another person's wedding....like who the heck does that?

would have preferred seeing other dramas getting the add'l seasons over tale of the nine-tailed.

A korean remake of BBT would be a challenge, but i suppose a loose adaptation could be made, where the comedic content is adapted to make relatable for korean audiences. i can see Kim Ji Won, Lee Kwang Soo and Ahn Un Jin as part of the cast. But for the remaining roles, i think actors that are known for their comedic excellence and naturally give off a nerdy vibe would be a better fit. Like Lee Yi Kyung, Choi Woo Shik, Yoon Shi Yoon, Lee Dong Hwi.

I'm impressed so far with Lost. The feeling of life not being what you expected is relatable.

the premise of this story really hits close to home. i'm liking the dark and gloomy vibe, and looking forward to future episodes. and can i say i'm just loving ryu joon yeol's hair!

What a wonderfully executed drama with thoughtful writing and solid acting. It's so rare to watch a romance series where the main leads are mature, have great chemistry and are a joy to watch. I loved how simple the premise of YAMG was. They focused on the couple, their day-to-day lives, and how two seemingly opposite personalities with demanding professions made their relationship work through mutual respect, compromise, communication and love. Theirs is the type of relationship I think we all wish for ourselves. I'm so happy the writer didn't throw in unnecessary angst and ridiculous subplots just for dramatic effect, but instead let the story flow naturally. Sigh...I'm already missing my weekly YAMG fix.

So many favorites I've had the pleasure of watching over the years. You're missed @Miura Haruma. :(

Aside from Mike and Push, haven't a clue who any of the rest are. Will have to check them out. Too bad Mark Prin Suparat didn't make the list.

thanks for the article...so far i'm loving you are my glory! so much so, that i read the novel while waiting for episodes. the MLs are great and have wonderful chemistry. two things i love the most is that first, the FL isn't childish and irritating, but displays maturity while still remaining mischievous. secondly, the ML isn't a stoic jerk, but recognizes his own faults, and listens to the FL. So glad that the story is mature and realistic, which is usually not the case with your typical rom c-dramas.

That mandrake is adorable.

Ugh. I don't always need a happy ending, but ep 16 was absurd. In what world did the writer think it would make sense for NYW to break up with YJS 15 minutes before the drama ended? Especially after she made such a fuss about YJS breaking up with her for self-sacrificing reasons. Plus to then throw in that father bit as the breakup reason felt sooooo contrived. The only thing I can think of for such a ridiculous ending, is that since the story was always about NYW realizing her dream of home ownership, then if they stayed together that goal would get brushed aside as she could just live with YJS in his apartment. A better ending would have been to have them stay together and dedicate the last episode to showing us NYW's journey of building that home for the two to live in together.

thanks for the article! i really wanted to love this drama (i mean the cast alone was phenomenal), but i just couldn't drink the tea. the first half was good as the story established itself, but then the latter half kind of floundered when the plot felt like it was repeating itself. i'm fine with cliches, but gosh darn it....make the cliches interesting at least.

wow...what an intriguing first couple of episodes.

the premise of the story was interesting enough and the acting was decent. didn't really like how the plot developed and unfolded in the latter half. it felt like we were going in circles at times. on a positive note, the cast's visuals were simply amazing.

the characters in this drama are all frustrating -- some more than others. also, i understand that soo hyun just wants to protect his little brother, but still...why is he paying his brother's rent when it's clear he's at his limit. sometimes it feels like soo hyun is a bit of a masochist. when his brother said he was going to move into a goshiwon, soo hyun could have just told him that money was extremely tight and to continue living together. additionally, the brother isn't a young kid...maybe just a couple of years younger than soo hyun...doesn't he realize how dire their finances are and the sacrifices that soo hyun is making to keep their family afloat? why isn't he pitching in?

ikjun is a whole vibe.

he flew on my radar because of Shut Up Family, but it was Ho Goo's Love that made him become one of my favorites! thanks for the article!

i used to get stressed about dropping dramas because i felt that i had to finish everything i started, but not anymore. i don't even bother putting them on a dropped list. i just tell myself that if i come across the drama again during a search, i can give it another go if i'm in the mood for the genre, story and/or actors.

nice article! loved the quotes....especially #2 as it brought me back to that scene, which was one of my favorites. and agree that the understated comedy was gold. lol.
