I thoroughly enjoyed the first episode. It looks like our FL is gonna have a ton of suitors which I didn't expect. But I love communal living dramas and I can't wait to be introduced to more of the characters who live in the house. Also this drama really doesn't take itself seriously so it was so much fun, I was laughing the whole way through.
I thought that the writers had messed up and had forgotten what they'd written in previous episodes, but NOPE! They are so clever! I shouldn't have doubted this drama, but to be fair I've watched so many dramas with messy writing I wasn't prepared for this dramas writing to be so great!
It's strange. Every week I fall more and more in love with Oh Dae Oh and more out of love with Ryu Jin and Oh Yeon Woo. I've always liked how extra and ridiculous Oh Dae Oh is, but I find him more likeable every week. Whereas Ryu Jin used to be a great character, his scenes were extremely funny and he was a good friend, but now he's just a jerk and his scenes annoy me - I hate nothing more than fake friends especially since Oh Dae Oh valued their friendship so much. Then Oh Yeon Woo stole my heart in the first episode, but ever since then he's been so clingy and over protective, Ae Jung has said his actions make her feel uncomfortable but it seemed to go in one ear and out the other. Why can't we get a second male lead who cares about the female lead, wants her to be happy, to protect her and to not have to tear down a different guy who may actually make her happy...oh actually I just summed up Goo Pa Do. I love his character. I don't want him to end up with Ae Jung but it's refreshing for their to be a second male lead character this brilliant. I still love this drama but it's a shame they had to ruin some of the characters who were so great! (Still Oh Dae Oh is my favourite character - it was the tiny moment where he tried to appear fancy by ordering an espresso and then he took a sip and his whole face distorted in disgust - then I knew I loved him)
I just watched the first ep it was hooking but something about it also felt awkward I can't put my finger on it
I was really not a fan of the first couple episodes - I even wrote a post on MDL talking about how disappointed I was with the drama. I just couldn't connect to it, but I watched some more episodes and have to say I really love it now. It won't be for everyone, but personally I've completely changed my mind about it - I've not seen a lot of the twists coming.
After watching him in so many gmmtv series. I was so surprised to see him also in Hua Jai Sila which is my first venture into lakorn land. He's just as hilarious as he is in the series he's cast in. I've loved him in everything I've seen him in!
Although I've watched a lot of Thai series I've never seen a lakorn before and I had no idea it'd be so soapy! I thought makjangs were crazy... but this is insane. The closest thing Ive seen in the past to compare it to are telenovelas. I love it - I'm completely obsessed! It's so over dramatic and ridiculous. It's so fun. I'm definitely a fan!
I may just be being hopeful and seeing things as I want to see them, but do we possibly have a potential lesbian character? Han Bi was looking at the instructor like there was some history there...I know it was only a second of screen time but to me it looked romantic...anyway I'm stupidly going to keep my hopes high.
I really really want Dae Oh to be the dad. Actually I need him to be the dad. I loved his little scenes with Ha Nee. Their bickering was too cute. I'm keeping my fingers crossed it's him from now on!
It’s interesting this will be airing the same time as Do You Like Brahms? - We don’t get many music dramas and now we are getting 2 at once! I’m so so’s excited for both!
I know this trope probably has been used a bunch of times, but the example I’ve seen is the US movie Just My Luck. I used to love that movie! So I’m excited now!
The actor played a smaller role in the last drama I finished and his character having a limp was a big part of his characters story. So I was surprised to see in this drama he also has a limp - weirdly he doesn't seem to have much of a limp in the second world. But you can see it in episode 3 when Do Won and him are running after Lee Jin Sung.
Have to say that I really wasn't into the characters in episodes 1-4 I wasn't connecting with them and it was making me enjoy the drama way less than I should've been, but something in episode 5 just clicked and now I'm really loving this drama. I can't believe I was so negative last week because this week I'm completely sold. I'm so excited for more!
Purely because of the limp I'm thinking its Woo Jae Hyuk - also he's a fleshed our character and close to Do Won in both worlds. I'll probably be way off but that's my early prediction.
I definitely completed a lot of dramas that I should’ve dropped when I was a newbie, but after 4 years I’ve finally gotten more comfortable dropping dramas. Maybe too comfortable dropping them... I always give them at least 3 episodes. I now also get annoyed with tropey romcoms when I used to love them!
I came into this late thinking it really wasn’t going to be my thing, but I’m so in love with this adorable drama. Its just such a fun watch, I’m smiling through every episode. I was worried that all these potential love interests would drive me insane and I’d hate who ever she eventually ends up with, but surprisingly I really like all her love interests. And it’s rare to find a drama with a FL who has chemistry with every single character (romantic or otherwise), but Song Ji Hyo is doing such a beautiful job. I can’t wait to see where this drama goes!
I love Seo Ji Hoon, he's my bias. But I'm really struggling to stay interested in this drama. Especially because one of the tropes I find most annoying in dramas is a second male lead who's clingy and possessive of the female lead - like Do Gyum is. I love watching Seo Ji Hoons dramas, and I picked this drama up because he's in it but the fact he's been given the typical role I hate is making this so hard to get through. I was hoping he'd be interested in Han Seo Yoon, but he probably won't be until the very last episode where they typically stick two characters together so they can get a "happy ending" - I really don't wanna drop this drama but I might have to.
I just seriously like this drama. It's got the tropes, but it's doing them differently. It feels so new and fun. Every time I finish an episode I'm still surprised by how much I enjoy it. I especially love what these directors have done, their direction gives this drama a completely unique feel. Really enjoying seeing how they're telling this story.
I'm not really emotionally attached to any of the characters yet. But I do tend to find it harder to connect to characters who are just sad and dark all the time. I really enjoyed our leads tiny happier moment in the past, but it wasn't long enough for me to become attached to them. But the story is really interesting and not too complicated for it to be going over anyone's head. I'm hoping I'll stick with this drama because I find the premise so intriguing, but if these characters don't become a little more well rounded then I don't know how much I'll watch. I've never seen a Yoon Shi Yoon drama before but I think he's doing the best with his character that anyone could do. And I was hoping with Kyung Soo Jin playing a lead character she'd have a really fleshed our role to play, but her characters a big too one note at the moment. I'll definitely watch next weeks episodes but it's not one of the drama I'm most excited for at the moment. Most people seem to love it I'm just a person that prefers character developments over plot developments, unless they're doing both well like the amazing drama '365 Repeat The Year' This being said: I'm loving how they differentiate between worlds and show the contrast. I love how spooky and creepy it can be. Also it's refreshing having an unreliable narrator. The drama made some really surprising choices early on. And I'm really not sure where it will go. It's pretty good.
