Could have been really good if they did not write the FL as a supporting character in other people’s story for most of the drama. If she is the main character, then focus on her. She did not even have a backstory or family or anything. The writing really is this drama’s biggest flaw.
I actually quite liked the slower paced part in the middle and then ramping up again
It was not as draggy as other dramas I have watched so I still gave it a good rating, but I would have prefered for it to have a consistent pace. I watched it 2 years ago so I don’t remember all the details. ^^'
Probably an unpopular opinion but I found it boring.
Too much focus on the business part, little focus on the romance. They clearly liked each other but took forever to get together for no reasonable reason. Sure, the FL had every right to be angry at first but at some point it just felt like she was being extremely stubborn and petty.
I am a programmer and gamer, so you would think that if anyone would love this drama that would be me, but I found it boring with just a few scenes here and there that felt worth watching.
The actors did a great job, so the problem was the writing and directing.
It clearly remake though i don't know why MDL don't said here as usual if it remakes.
Yeah, that was what left me confused. I have only watched the first 2 episodes but have found so many similarities already. There are a few details here and there that are different but most of the things, specially when it comes to the male lead’s life, are the same.
I thought the same too like they usually mention it on MDL that it's remake ....maybe they will edit later on…
Since I rewatched Boku no Ita Jikan recently it was easier to find the similarities. For me it was the interview scene with him pretending the phone ringing was his. At that moment I was like, nah, there is no way this is a coincidence. Then they showed his family situation and that was when I was pretty sure the two dramas were related in some way.
The plot is too bland to stretch the drama for 4 months, 1 episode a week was an awful idea.
I waited until all the episodes were out to watch and felt like I would not have missed anything by skipping on this one. If I had tried to watch it while it was airing, I know for sure I would have dropped it.
If you want me to keep coming back every week for 1 single episode, you better make it end with a bang so I feel like I HAVE to watch the next one, like I cannot wait for next week’s episode.
This drama was below average when it comes to kdrama standards and stretching the airing duration from 2 to 4 months only made it worse. Not something I would recommend. I skipped a lot and did not drop it just because there were not many episodes and I hate leaving things unfinished. If you have not started watching, you can safely skip this one. It is not worth your time.
I just rewatched Boku no Ita Jikan like a week ago and just from watching the first episode of this one I am finding a lot of similarities.
He plays soccer, the phone ringing scene during the job interview, he has a younger brother that is going to medical school, the whole family dynamics, etc. If this is a remake or at least heavily inspired on Boku no Ita Jikan, why is there no mention of it in the drama details?
P.S. - I am not hating on the drama or anything, just wondering how it is related to Boku no Ita Jikan since there are so many similarities that so far it almost feels like watching a remake of it.
Never trust comments and ratings as they based on personal preference and not objective analysis or facts. I’ve…
Hum, I can go through my list later and see if I can find something that you might like.
I am going to rewatch Royal Rumours with my mother since she has been addicted to Chinese historical dramas, so if you have not watched it yet, maybe give it a try and see if you like it.

Same here. I have watched some high rated dramas that bored me to death and some lower rated dramas that I found to be pretty entertaining. I think it comes down to personal preference, previous experience and even your mood.
I liked Princess Agents, tho I did skip some scenes, but the way it ended made me feel very angry because I thought "now that it was getting interesting they just end it like that?" and like you said, no second season. Wasted potential.
I do not remember how I felt about song of glory but I gave it a rating of 6.5, which in my book means I would not rewatch it. ^^'

I agree in part with that you said. Definitely do not trust comments that just say a drama is good or bad or that clearly show bias towards some actors.
But detailed comments can sometimes give you enough info to decide if a drama is worth watching. I have found that reviews are a lot less reliable than comments. If a huge amount of comments are negative, and there is no mention of the actors, usually that means there is a problem with the writing, editing, dubbing, subs or other things that most people will be able to compare to other dramas they have watched and tell are not up to standard.
This was one of the few dramas I felt was worth watching for the past month. I like crime investigation, be it in modern or historical dramas. But I felt this one focused too much on the investigation part and I did not care much for the FL’s sister storyline which got A LOT of screen time.
I figured out who the mastermind was pretty early on, found it to be too predictable, so the last few episodes were quite boring for me. Wish they had focused more on the main lead’s relationship and whole dream thing instead of pushing everything into the last episode. Overall it was good drama, but the first half of the drama was a lot more interesting than the second half. Had they changed a few things and this might have been a drama I would consider rewatching.
They have been available for hours on kisskh. The last 2 should be available with subs tomorrow but I watched raw to get it over with since I lost interest in the last few episodes.
hello guys, can you please tell me where can watch this? I couldn't find it anywhere except on Bilibili and Dramacool…
This drama aired in January 2014, probably filmed in 2013 if not earlier. You cannot expect it to have the same quality as a drama from 2024. The quality is pretty decent. When I started watching dramas back in 2010 I came across alot of them with much lower quality.
I have not started it yet, but I feel like crying just from reading the synopsis. And judging from Landy Li‘s…
I have watched quite a few of her dramas and I really like her. I personally related to her character in The Starry Love, probably because I do not have a great relationship with my father.
She made me feel all kinds of things while watching that drama, I got frustrated, cried and smiled with her, which is why I know this one will make me cry, not only because of the plot but because I know the actors will do a great job at portraying all kinds of emotions.
