Damn, I watched this show in 2018 and feels like a fever dream honestly. It was my first time consuming Japanese content in any format other than anime and holy, it felt so weird. It was an extremely hard but fun watch. I still remember that it was sorta funny not plot wise per say but bc of how ridiculous it felt. I enjoyed it though ahhah. Maybe I should rewatch a couple of episodes
She is the kinda pretty that most women will find her pretty but as guys she is just a decent actress and nothing special lookwise. And, she is definitely not hot but everyone in entitled to their opinion. I have no problem with you finding her attractive but I also agree with the main comment. I wish the female casts in this show were hotter.
Eh, been seeing a lot of shows with waking up in future in someone else's body. Yet another isekai kinda trope from a webtoon. The cast involved in this show would have to mega carry it with how much life they put into it. Well to be fair, I haven't read the webtoon but the synopsis isn't anything special. And Kim Se Jeong after a decade will again be acting as high school girl is crazy hahaha
Not really sure I've ever watched Song Kang acting but in clips he seems to be a decent actor. But Kim So Hyun and Ryu Hye Young don't really speak to me. I wouldn't say they are bad but they same very stiff imo, especially Kim So Hyun who is pretty popular, she reminds me of Japanese drama actresses. Doesn't really overtake you even though her acting skills might not be awful. Good luck to everyone involved in this project.
tbf the japanese are also struggling with marriage and birth rates for a few reasons which one of them is included…
Nobody is flaming anyone. But these projects are definitely more on the rise because of this very aspect. Television shapes public opinion through agenda-setting, framing issues, and visual storytelling. It dictates what topics people think about and how they feel about them. K-pop has transformed from a niche foreign import into a core part of Japan's mainstream pop culture, driven by massive concert attendance, localized releases, and major multi-day cultural events like KCON Japan. Japan remains South Korea’s largest overseas market for music and cultural content consumption. K-pop captures around 15-20% of Japan's mainstream music chart market share, completely overshadowing Western pop presence in the country. The explosive rise of K-pop and K-beauty has acted as a powerful form of soft power, fundamentally altering how young Japanese people perceive Koreans and actively encouraging cross-cultural dating and marriage. K-pop idols and K-drama leads have popularized the image of Korean men as highly romantic, attentive, and stylish. Similarly, K-beauty standards have made Korean aesthetics highly desirable among Japanese youth. I am just stating the obvious and it's a brilliant soft power move which actually does a lot in Asian cultures, this wouldn't as much as in the West even though in the West people also experienced a huge craze towards Korean men around 2018-2022 which has gone down now.

ah yess a joint venture between the nation or big media production houses of country may not be the point afterall…
ahh yes your username definitely suggests you take things in life seriously and you didn't giggle writing it down, disgusting behaviour btw.

What do you mean by "own women doesn’t want them"?
4B was an example to the underlying issue in Korea. I am not saying this drama has anything to do with it in particular, I was just pointing out its more than just collaboration with Japanese industry, there is definitely a soft-power aspect. It's a great move monetarily but also to shape the image of Korean men and women in Japan as highly romantic, stylish and desirable.

I think it’s needs improvements for a second season. One of my biggest issues was the flow. Everything was so…
Exactly, I thought it started off decently well and it grabs your attention but halfway through it was just unnecessary nonsense. The cast did their job pretty well. My biggest problem was the thing that you pointed out and the fact Ju Gang Chan has so much say in everything, I understand this show is adapted from a webtoon but the author and the directors should tweak the story when you make it a K-drama. Directors and producers need more creative freedom to make it more enjoyable for TV viewers. It was so weird that the pacing of the show was horrendous, everything felt slow yet at the same time the ending felt awfully rushed. It felt like after episode 8 they got red alarms going off that they need to end the show in two episodes.

4B_movement <- google this
Actually happening in Korea and many of my friends want nothing to do with Korean men, the dramas often create a great stereotype of them but the reality is completely different
It's hilarious how hard Koreans are trying to make their men in demand again because their own women doesn't want them so they need to go and use the Japan - Korea love romance route. This country is so doomed but please don't stop making rom com dramas and some shows Koreans make are epic

I forgot that people with low intellect can comment too on posts. I was stating my opinion. This show doesn't deserve a second season. A lot of people agree and a lot of people disagree, do know what that means? That means everyone has their own opinions that they share. But ofc for a donkey like yourself you can't even read right. I am not going to be watching the second season. I am quite positive it will be a flop but you can enjoy since you liked it so much. I don't care about that at all.
I don't have problem with people like or disliking things, that's what reviews and opinions are about. I just stated mine and the person I asked me to not watch it which obviously I won't.
But the point is, the show isn't good enough for a second season. By the same logic just because Business proposal was a great hit when it came out should it have a second season? No because it would unnecessarily drag the story out.
duty after school was split in two parts, it wasnt two seasons, and several dramas had great second season
mf going to every comment and defending this show as if she is being payed. People are giving their reviews this is what this site is for. Stop acting like a lunatic, its so disgustingly annoying to experience
