I'm currently 4 episodes in and this is indeed a fun romcom, no wonder it's still recommended even now. Long time fan of Hwang Jung Eum too. Going all in \o/
This breakup episode 12 is a solid comedy lol. The cliched trope haven't ruined this drama imho. Hope the breakup resolved in some way next week. Truly enjoyed Yeo Ui-joo and Sam Soon's dynamics and shenanigans this whole drama btw. Hope their ship set sail next couple episodes. Our true 2nd leads :p Leenalchi's song insert dance scene in ep 12 is just brilliant too lol.
Picked this because of Kim Ji Seok, while waiting for his current Monthly Magazine Home episodes. Well, this is a nice light breezy drama. Great start, then almost nothing happened in the first half, (except feels good moments between the friends and families), then drama ramped up in the second half to a satisfying ending. Well, recommended if you're like me looking for something ok in between show.
So much fluff in today's episode. Sorry for Nam Sang Soon tho :c So Min is already established 1st FMC in many romcoms but Kim Ji Seok should play 1st MC more often! >,< I've watched him in Another Oh Hae Young and When the Camelia Blooms (as 2nd MC). Also in My Unfamiliar Family, his best acting imho but it's not exactly a romcom.
This drama is a gem, a masterpiece even. Started kind of weird, cringy funny, then fluffiness and wholesomeness…
In episode 12 when everything about to break down for our main couple (such a hard watch), I need to note that I so love the part where they insert the scene of Suhyun singing her own RL song. I'm fan of AKMU since forever and the song is my favorite and just right for the mood of the whole episode. I found myself singing along with her, just how much I love it. Also another note, last episode, the car chase scene, when the drama changed briefly to full on action genre. Weird but love it, like I wasn't prepared for the adrenaline rush watching but love it.
This drama is a gem, a masterpiece even. Started kind of weird, cringy funny, then fluffiness and wholesomeness in the middle, then a full on roller coaster ride in the last two episodes with such a sweet sweet ending. Drama of the year. Unique romcom that touched on a lots of serious issue . So gonna miss this.
Gave this one of my highest rate. - Vincenzo is one the very first refreshing unapologetic antiheros in the history of K-Drama. Totally love it. - I do think tho, that the villains charas in this drama are quite foolish and cartoonish at most of times. I think the villains could be written to be more capable playing the game, balance the fights a bit. - The visuals in this drama are just stunning. All MC Charas are so well-dressed. Cinematography and productions 10/10.
Great show. The episodic plots and stories are very enjoyable and satisfying to watch. The penultimate acts are quite a 'mess; (episode 13 & 14 particularly, the actions are great but too much a 'mess') but the ending episodes is back to being great again. One thing if I need to complain is that Kim Do Gi in this show is not unapologetically antiheroic enough (you know like Vincenzo :p) but he's still a great badass MC, love him and all of Rainbow Team and even Kang Ha Na pro. Gonna miss them.
Jang Hyuk and Jang Na Ra drive a typical cliched plot into a starred brilliant performances. I've never watched Jang Hyuk in a romcom but he really did nail it here. The man can really act and bring life to this weird Lee Geon chara lol. Jang Na Ra. I've watched many of her romcom dramas. Her chara Kim Mi young is one of our typical innocent FMCs (but with great chara development) but still refreshingly innocent! This would be one of her best performances. Totally recommended! (you would need to get used to Lee Geon's weird laughter then it'd be a hell of ride)
Tempted to pick this because of the awesome songs (KLANG and Sunwoojunga) but hesitant for the general bad reviews and comments are many... hmm, should I pick it just for OSTs then?
- This is one of the best drama and quite underrated seeing comments below. The plot driven by the main leads may not have the major drive or major climax or conflicts resolution but the story pans out the wholesomeness of their relationship and people surrounding them. I'd say this is not our typical romcom, I love how this drama presents our 1st MC (played by Im Shi Wan), it moves away from typical male macho, childish jealousy and possessiveness and all (maybe we love the typical comedy often arise from normal male charas from other romcom dramas but I love this drama take on MC), he just really 'grows' together with 1st FMC. The acting of both is superb. Especially Shin Se Kyung (1st FMC), she can naturally act cute, caring, conflicted, confrontational and all. I also love this drama's touch on LGBTQ+ representation. This drama is indeed a breath of fresh air. - I'm a long time SONE and do I love Choi Soo Young! She's so beautiful in all her scenes. Her chara's (2nd FMC) bickerings and budding friendship with FMC are my favorite interactions in this whole drama. - Cinematography 10/10. All frames and palettes :chef kiss:
Saikou no Rikon is my favorite drama ever so I can't help but compare the two. First, I was hesitant to pick this…
I think Eita played the weird chara that he was in Saikou no Rikon better and more naturally, well weird. Cha Tae Hyun did his best. Bae Doona did her best too but Yuka is funnier and funner lol. Mitsuo and Yuka's connection over the earthquake meet and reunion reminiscent of it is still my favorite storyline ever. On the other hand, Lee El and Son Seok Koo improved the original 2nd leads charas from Saikou no Rikon's. I totally love the ending act with Yoo Young's mother. I'm pleasantly surprised by side chara's story played by Kim Hye Joon. I just wish they gave more screen time and develop her chara's relationship with her GIRLFRIEND. YES, GL story of Ma Ru and her roommate-GF Soo Kyoung. So sweet.
Saikou no Rikon is my favorite drama ever so I can't help but compare the two. First, I was hesitant to pick this up because with high expectations, possibility of disappointment is quite there but I finally decided to watch because of Bae Doona. After finishing this over a weekend I'm glad to not be disappointed at all lol. Korean remake add few more sub stories and side charas' stories which is so refreshing. Saikou no Rikon's pair Mitsuo and Yuka (played by Eita and Ono Machiko) is still my favorite over this tho.
Truly enjoyed Yeo Ui-joo and Sam Soon's dynamics and shenanigans this whole drama btw. Hope their ship set sail next couple episodes. Our true 2nd leads :p
