devastating

this movie was not easy to watch , i had to pause in between scenes to stop myself from going manic. what makes me sick is that this movie is based off true events and right now i am still trying to process everything from finishing the movie less than 5 minutes ago. it was heartwrenching throughout the whole movie. it is definitely not for just anyone to watch as you need to be mentally prepared as the events are triggering.

im still super pissed at the verdict given to the culprit because what the fuck ?? only 12 years after damaging a kid physically AND mentally that is costing her her whole life yet he only gets... 12 years... of prison.. because he was intoxicated with alcohol... when he did it.. hearing the words he said during the trial made me sick to my stomach, knowing he did what he did but still claiming to be innocent MY GOD ! headache just thinking about it..

the right amount of everything

no doubt for this show's originality. it was really refreshing to watch something about politics and not in the way most k-dramas portray it (which is usually super dark) honestly thought i wouldnt even sit past 5 episodes but i just kept on watching and suddenly im on the last episode ? where did the time go..

i've seen nana in kill it & that was super great btw which is how i found out abt this show and the poster alone looks interesting to me. i've never bothered to read the synopsis and honestly thought this show was about boxing or something LOL it was funny when i realized its about politics. this show had a consistent pace to the end which most dramas fail to have and its one of the reasons why i even managed to watch it till the end WITHOUT skipping scenes too !! probably the only entertaining drama about politics that isnt boring.

I don’t have much to say regarding this drama because it was genuinely a good one to me and I loved every bits and wits of it. Its definitely worth the watch and I would recommend this to people.

manwol is the only interesting character

The cast list & the guest roles were amazing and acting was superb & despite being one of the most hyped dramas it was so underwhelming , i couldn't bother to watch the side stories (which takes up a lot of the episodes) lol i skipped almost all of it bc it was super unnecessary. ghost hunting and all sheesh who's got the time!

romance between manwol & chansung were Meh , manwol's characteristics was too strong for her to end up with chansung tbh they could've made him someone of her level (of characteristics) because he was so boring to me .. romance seems forced tbh don't really feel it there.

how they resolved manwol's grudge? what the hell was that 3 minutes of standing & looking at eachother? she held on to that grudge for 1300 years just for it to end like that? lol they could've at LEAST made it more dramatic. even the side characters have longer stories on how they resolve their grudges!

overall the best part of this drama is manwol (and her outfits) & the most interesting part is her past with cheongmyung & yeonu . i would've definitely rated this drama higher if they focused more on that. lee dohyun did an amazing job in portraying his character despite being a rookie at that time omg loved it so much. their story was the only one that made me cry lol

i contemplated a lot on whether to drop this drama or not but i didn't because i wanted to see how it all ends but ???? so so underwhelming. could've been so much better

it had a good start and the main couple was really cute i admit that, i love them they might be the most mentally stable couple ever but that's the thing, when the characters are too normal it doesn't bring the story anywhere. i realized there was nothing more to the plot once they started going out, i love all of the casts personally but the plot was rather underwhelming. glad i dropped it so i wouldnt have to waste 10 hours of my life watching nOThing happen. its very lighthearted and stressfree but i dont think its worth to be 20 episodes. also i searched up the writer and the dramas she has written r all boring @__@ to me at least.

genuinely entertaining

despite the low ratings from a lot of people i actually enjoyed watching it ! it was a fun lighthearted movie to watch and i admit it was a waste because the casts were so good but the plot was rather disappointing (even though i enjoyed it). just thought they could've done so much more with the casts. a wasted potentiaaal.

the climax was literally unimpactful i would've preferred if she slapped him or something instead of a fight in the middle of a drivethru . which wasn't even resolved by thee way. i SAW the vision the team who worked on this movie had but in a way i feel like it would be better if it was a 3ep drama since i felt like there were sm things lacking in between the chemistry of the characters & the characters themselves. i get their main focus but the little things count too.

as for the twist @ the end , tbh i expected it since they never clarified the timeline for it. it just sucks because i know they both still have unresolved feelings for each other i would've preferred if they had closure on that. also > where did the baby go < ... its funny because the lack of attention and affection and the distance adding on to their relationship was what lead to searching for attention from someone else & receding feelings for each other. also the writers never showed how in love they were !! it would've add sm more flavor and angst ! ugh

nevertheless i see myself rewatching this movie because the leads are very hot people and im just a bad movie enjoyer. if you have time to watch it then go ahead but you wouldn't rlly miss out on anything if you don't watch it ( except vry hot people working tgt )

super casual

a cliche which i love . started off with marriage based of a contract and ended up falling in love with each other yaaas. buuuut it was fast for me to just stop caring about this show because it was just bland throughout i didnt care about the other couples too loll

first of all i like yun shu's bond with her sister i like watching them together. next isss the fact that yunshu called her husband Teacher Zhang throughout the show :/ it felt weird . the plot/show was cute at first but it got boring yea... not really something you'd miss out on if you dont watch it

one of the best chinese romcoms dramas

i don't find myself skipping the scenes on the first few episodes and that was already a sign for me that this drama is going to be good and woohoo it definitely was!! no irrelevant side stories, everything being told with a purpose, side characters that contribute enough as a side character and the main focus was literally the main leads as it should be !! most c-dramas often get side tracked with past stories of the characters and stuff which gets really annoying and takes up a lot of time from the drama and that was one of my concerns but luckily they didn't include such irrelevance.

the only thing i found annoying was the sound effects (i could still hear it ohmygod) it was really annoying and loud and unnecessary to be played like 20 times per episode ㅠㅠ another thing was that it took them so damn long to figure out why their body was switching like c'mon !! not that hard to figure out actually yall. i also got bored when they switched bodies the second time cus like,, the thrill is just not there anymore . but other than that i was quite content w this drama.

kinda funny how often shengsheng took days off and not get in trouble for it like How girl omg let me work there too ! okay but overall though it was worth it to watch this drama as it is veryyy lighthearted and you can finish it in a blink of an eye. there are scenes that were genuinely funny and i rarely find myself laugh at jokes being made in dramas but this one had pure comedy . def entertaining. main couple is also super cute i adore them they r so lovable n character development on jiangyi is so evident ugh love that

I loved every single moment in this drama (although i have skipped some part of some ppl's back story ex. the ppl who passed due to my bad attention span) nonetheless it's definitely something i'd recommend to everyone !

the relationship between everyone in this drama is so so precious & it shows the depth of how much someone could love you & how its not easy to let go. now that i think of it i have so much to say but the words are just Not forming.

the main characters are filled with regrets , grief & love and i love the closure they gave them.

every cast played their characters SOOOO good im very much impressed and would love to see more of them.

IF I'M BEING HONEST

THE PLOT

This show started off really great. The first episode was enough to catch my attention especially with little JianJian! They showed how close their family bond is and I liked how it was going until they added romance between the main leads into the plot. I think it would've been just fine if they didn't include it lol as it has probably made some people uncomfortable since JianJian has always seen them as brothers and they weren't exposed by the scriptwriters to have romantic feelings towards each other so it just felt weird. + I feel like He Ziqiu didn't even like her romantically and their r/ship is platonic but his friend planted the idea into his brain making him think he likes her when its just brotherly love.

Other than that! I could feel the plot changing from being focused on the family to being just like any other cdramas. It had a lot of potential from the start but it all went POOF after the brothers returned from overseas.

I like how they portrayed the "close family bond ended up being distant" because they were away from each other for so long and were just holding on to empty promises. JianJian being awkward with them after they came back was totally understandable and the brothers forcing themselves on to JianJian acting like they havent been distant from each other for 9 years was frustrating but also understandable.

THE CHARACTERS

He Ziqiu's character was remarkable and I LOVED his bond with the father as the scenes of them together are always so pure and honest it was so refreshing to see. Their heart-to-heart moments made me cry too.

I feel like the good parents are too good and the bad ones are badbad as that is how the scriptwriters portrayed them to be. It just didn't seem very realistic to me especially the father being literally perfect lmao.

LingXiao was an okay character meh Song WeiLong's acting was a little stiff for this character as LingXiao is literally ~angsty and troubled~.

Li JianJian ! I liked the woman she grew up to be. It was evident that she's dependent on her brothers and spending time away from each other made her independent. There weren't much flaws to her character as to me she is just straight up adorable. I liked how she didn't let things bother her and how straight-forward she is, saying whatever that is on her mind.

OVERALL
It's a good drama to watch I guess but it just stirred away from the original plot after uni life when i would love to see the drama being fully family-oriented but i'll just take what i can get.

to me it was a genuinely good show to watch despite what others have said about it. It's one of those shows where youre better off binge watching it rather than wait for weekly episodes when its on-going and being upset when the upcoming episode turns out to be underwhelming.

k-dramas nowadays have gotten realistic and i was thoroughly enjoying this fantasy drama where the plot is sometimes illogical but that's what makes it entertaining ! sucks to those who thinks this show is bad but its a show with sexy hot people as the leads come on , that's enough reason to watch till the end.

plot / story flow wise , the things that happened were rather anti-climatic to me but its wtv since it kept the story going. second lead's first love plot, couldn't care less about it. literally move on na jina ! also don't understand why her aunt had to marry a white guy but have no interaction whatsoever with him. the deity girly i had no problems with her (throughout the show when it was ongoing i saw a lot of people complain and being annoyed with her) i understood her purpose and the reason behind why she did whatever she did , never was once annoyed nor see her as the antagonist of the show. she just did what she had to do.

okay about the main lead's story, they tried to make it angsty but i'm sorry it wasnt really. one spoiler i'm going to give is that this show has a happy ending which i am very content with. how they got together and how they get to know more of each other wasn't given depth , all they had was the holding hands at midnight and living together so they can fall in love with e/o which is, illogical lol but somehow they made it happen T__T i guess seeing e/o more frequent makes it easier to fall in love lol. also love how he just rejects her wish every time she makes one .

think thats all of my thoughts on this drama , overall entertaining and worth the watch. loved the cast except for their aunt's husband. i also think this show had potential to make it big by how promising the first 2 eps are but whoever was behind it decided to make it mediocre which is fine i guess.

WATCH AT YOUR OWN RISK

I was stuck in quarantine and started watching this out of boredom. Would've appreciated it if the producers added a trigger warning at the beginning of the drama T_T I had 2 mental breakdowns in the span of watching this lmao.

Overall plot is super f'd up and no one's a good guy in this drama. Every character frustrates you in their own charming way. Obviously am not satisfied with the ending and looking forward to season 2 if there even is one *sigh* Honestly if you're mentally unstable and is planning to watch this then good luck haha. yes it's good , no doubt it is, but it is rather triggering.

better than what I expected

I was reluctant to start this drama because most of the main cast are idols and to be honest i didnt even have any plans to watch it until i saw an ad for it on tiktok lol ! I managed to binge watch it and finish the whole show within two days and I regret it soo muchh because now I have nothing more to look forward to .. it was such a good cute short romcom drama !! I did not expect myself to like it as much but wow look at me now.. definitely did not think this show was going to end up being one of my favorite cdramas.

There were no unnecessary dramas / side stories that will bore you. The friendship and romance between all of the casts were entertaining to watch. The production was amazing. The plot is simple and the pace of this show is consistent which makes the show so much better as it wasn't rushed and it was seemingly well planned. I didn't skip any parts and thoroughly enjoyed everything. The growth of romance between the main leads did not seem forced and they respected each other's boundaries, no toxicity at all ! bare minimum i know but most leads in cdramas tend to be overbearing as you get to know more of the characters so I'm glad they didn't do that. The scene at the end of this show was perfect omg it was so cliche i love it.

Only downside to this is that I wish they showed more of the main characters story. I mean they do take up most of the screen time but I wish they had shown more of them as a couple / more scenes when they are alone together (like how they were in the mountains omg i loved that so much). Maybe they shouldn't have gone to depth with the side characters stories LOL i dont mind it because it was fun to watch them but could've cut some of the time to show more of zeng li & jing chu :') I have no complaints other than that.

Sweet Teeth is definitely worth the watch as it gave what needed to be given and its a sweet, light and short romance drama to watch. It will have you smiling to yourself and crying because of how sweet zengli and jingchu are :'c

this drama is suuuper addictive and worth every watch ! got me hooked on the first episode omgg i miss when dramas used to be this dramatic and fictitious (in a good way).. though i did get bored for a few episodes in the middle but it was still bearable because of the side characters's wits >< the ahjummas & soldiers were so entertaining to watch i love themmm they're definitely one of the main highlights of the show ! i cried and laughed a lot while watching this show cus it was just that goood .. so grateful that i didnt watch this drama as soon as it came out because i'd be missing it everyday for 2 years now ㅠㅠ

only down point is that the character cheolgang was just too annoying i didnt gaf about him omg he gets away with everything why does this guy always play corrupted characters ;_; other than that everything was just great but as for the scenes i skipped, blame it on my poor attention span. hyunbin & yejin's chemistry were undeniable they were both so great and charming i love themm :c!!!

overall this drama definitely was worth the hype and worth to be watched ! its fun , entertaining, heartbreaking, thrilling omg literally every emotion there is !

it started off soo good i loved the cinematography for it and the castings (until i found out the age diff between the leads ,, yikes) when i found out abt it it did tick me off but i continued watching it for the sake of finishing it.

these days cdramas have a lot of coming-of-age genre but most of them ALWAYS have unnecessary side stories that i skip but this show it does have a few side stories n none of them bore me . i loved all of the side characters they were portrayed so so well and the chemistry between them all.. LOVE

overall a great drama to watch but i wish they wouldve casted someone who's not a minor :/ other than that the plot n all were good
