Does anyone know how to find the OST for this drama? I have tried YT but no luck. The ending theme music is wonderfully catchy, so despo want to identify it.
Have watched a couple of dailies, but this is the first airing one. Started off slow but picking up pace. Its a standard makjang, and somehow that's its charm!!! More thoughts under spoiler
This turned out to be so so so disappointing - i should have heeded the reviews!!! The joy of watching a makjang…
I mean who entrusts the mistress to get evidence against her lover!!!! Even the last twist (ML getting attacked instead of her) comes about accidentally into her (FL)hands - she just buys the assailants off! We never see her planning anything as revenge Such dumb writing. in general : The ML placing the knife into the FL's hands and using it to threaten them...what was that? The FL just allows him to become Chairman just like that, no plan to stop him nothing at all. And him getting killed by Mi Ra as the climax did not work for me. Did not feel in character for MiRa. This makjang on the whole lacked emotional high notes. Not a single thrilling confrontational scene bar one in the final episode and that is between the husband and Mi Ra, not the FL! UGH

The joy of watching a makjang is to see the wronged take delicious revenge. Show Window completely misses this crucual aspect, making it a very boring watch after a point. Despite the first half building up the FL as a smart, capable and astute 'queen', we never see her doing actually clever things. (more ranting in spoiler comment).
The drama works well until the wife finds out, and then the plotting goes haywire and there is literally no satisfying payoff. Only reason i finished was the acting - all 3, FL, ML, 2FL do excellent, particularly Lee Sung Jae
I don't know how to use this app I can't see drama only I can see reviews

What a lovely little show. It lightly but thoughtfully explores the theme of finding yourself when stuck in life…
I don’t think Mashiba ever truly had romantic feelings for Shachi. She admired/looked up to him so much that she thought she did. Maybe if Shachi had realized his feelings earlier and expressed something, her admiration might have evolved into love. But once Shun entered the picture, she fell for him naturally—we see no hesitation or inner conflict. And Shachi’s graceful withdrawal was such a breath of fresh air! I think the love triangle "tension" in the show was primarily Shachi realising his feelings while cohabiting and watching her being in love with another! The writer added it just to sprinkle in some sizzle. It did add pressure to Shun to commit. I felt without it he might not have expressively committed !!!!
What a lovely little show. It lightly but thoughtfully explores the theme of finding yourself when stuck in life and learning to overcome doubt and disappointment. All the characters feel real(-ish), and the overall vibe is positive and uplifting—without ever turning saccharine or preachy.
I also appreciated how the show handled the *nonexistent (imo)* love triangle (more thoughts under spoiler). I'm a fan of Mukai Osamu, so yes, I'm naturally biased—but his character as a SML was well written, and as always, his performance was great. No doubt, Yokohama Ryusei and Kawaguchi Haruna are great as well; I though they made an adorable on-screen couple.
Short and fluffy, the drama is for those times when you want to sit back and just take in something that feel…
I really enjoyed the FL's interactions with the ML's mother where she disarms the mother's barbs with sincere but pointed rejoinders. I also liked that she joins KHY for a vacation as a compromise, nullifying kinda the mother's rather clever trap.
Short and fluffy, the drama is for those times when you want to sit back and just take in something that feel familiar and predictable. Chae Jong Hyeop is the reason I watched and he once again proves he's an excellent actor with his expressive eyes and natural performance. His smile as ever gladdens my heart every time it lights up the screen. But yes, he should challenge himself with more variety in his roles. Kim So Hyun - I didnt like her as a child actor and in my eyes she hasnt improved as an adult. Her acting feels forced and a bit put on, but not bad enough for me to drop. Unfortunately, I found the chemistry flat but again not bad enough to drop.
What I did like very much was the way the FL was written - she is clear in her intentions, smart and knows how to stand her ground without burning bridges. More under spoiler A 7.5 bumped to 8 for CJH <3
This was a fun watch but not sure if I'll watch S3 even though the drama concept is still interest me. Reasons…
The charm of the idea for all of us is the vicarious satisfaction we get - denied to us in real life - when the Rainbow Taxi team takes down the bad guys with such style. I really appreciate the show runners picking cases that feel outrageous but are in fact true and recreate them faithfully. That each case in S1 however insane was real was mind blowing to me. I similarly appreciated them showing the full ugly truth of Burning Sun case in S2.
However, the problem is that in S2 the revenge arcs, while satisfying, were so very filled with loopholes, inconsistencies and plot conveniences that it felt like fantasy/wishful thinking and felt insulting to the real cases and the real pain people suffered. Some plotting was so simplistic that it felt insulting to the viewer as well. The writer wanted this season to be lighter so comedy was sprinkled throughout but that further took away the seriousness because it didnt always work. Anyhow, just my opinion albeit a minority one - Im mostly done with Taxi Driver as a show.
I knew going in it was messy but turned out to be outright nuts how things kept escalating.
For a short drama, this was well crafted but of course understandably the plot has single focus a la M&B books. I loved the choice to trickle the backstory to us while the main romance develops, giving us context bit by bit.
I'll be honest I didnt see what was so special aabout Da On, for 3 guys going crazy. This caused me not buy into a lot of stuff - that contract made no sense, Jae Min saying he'll have DaOn by his side by not dating him made no sense, Su Hyeon choosing to not confess made no sense, the two hyungs pining over this one man for 7 years made no sense....! Anyhoo - Jae Min covered up his obsession by faking concern and making Da On become dependent, thinking this will keep Da On attached to him. Su Hyeon puts all his might to get back Da On by being entitled and demanding, not surprising given how he grew up. He thought just like his father, ordering someone to become something was the solution not knowing being vulnerable would have made things easier. Seong Hyun was just a golden retriever bf in love!
Performance wise, the two hyungs were awesome. Jae Min going full-on psycho was super well done by KHY. I personally thought CJW had the best screen presence. I am sorry to his fans, but KJS was the weakest link - blank face, expressionless eyes, self conscious body language and stiff dialogue delivery - a real disappointment
avistaz got it 720phttps://i.imgur.com/HWjA0ql.png sample imageshttps://i.imgur.com/6NXibgC.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/cFkfgJp.pngBut…
Thanks but true, no way do i want to re-watch even for YJH. Getting access to avitaz is impossible for me due to country restrictions so sadly out of question even if i manged to get an invite (I would want to join for the j-drama availability on that platform)
