the difference is, in FMIYM, both the characters are adults. while, as far as i know, here, the FL is a high-schooler.
I do understand that but the adult character clearly isn’t interested in the highschooler. He just sees her as a “bad kid” - she has a crush on him. And now 3 years later - where the majority of the drama will be taking place -they are both firmly adults with her character now being 22 and yet he still doesn’t have romantic feelings for her, he really dislikes her and what she did 3 years ago. So other than the first 15 minutes of the first episode - where she literally jumped on him - they are both adults, so I personally don’t really see the difference to FMIYM. But of course I can understand where you’re coming from. As I said it’s my personal experiences I’m drawing from, so people will have different feelings than me
I had lots of friends in university who were in serious relationships with 27 year olds when they were 19, which is the exact ages these characters met at - two of my friends are still dating 5 years later with that age gap. Maybe it's just because the I'm so used to it that it doesn't really bother me, but then again I really enjoyed Find Me In Your Memory and the actors age gap was 13 years as well, and their characters had fantastic chemistry.
I found the first episode seriously charming. And I really liked the 2 lead roles. A Puppy ML and a strong FL is one of my favourite tropes so I'm excited. I chuckled the majority of the way through. It's going to be a rom com where I can just completely turn my brain off and have fun with it.
I really liked the first couple of episodes, but after the newest episodes I am completely in love with this drama. With the leads new revelations their chemistry has really reached a new level. I didn't see the reveals coming when and where they did, it was so surprising and kept me on my toes. Also we have a really intriguing "bad guy" the actor is undeniably charming, but I seriously hate his character, but I'm also interested to see where the writers are going to go with him, they really surprised me with the newer developments to his character. I'm actually enjoying having a villain to really hate after all the lacklustre villains in dramaland recently...although I'm sure I won't be saying that when he hurts our leads relationship. I'm loving this more and more each week!
I didn't love the first 2 episodes, but I feel like episode 3 really stepped it up. I'm intrigued to see where it will go now that we've learned a bit more about her past.
I have never seen a chinese historical/fantasy drama. I know that there are a lot of great ones out there and I do plan to watch them at some point, but after hearing this dramas plot I just had to start this (even though it's poking fun at a genre I have never watched before) and I have to say that I am loving every single second of this drama so far! It's funny that the first ever kdrama I watched was Dramaworld, which was about a kdrama fan waking up and finding herself in the kdrama rom com she's watching and now the first cdrama of this genre I'm watching is about a girl who writes cdramas and wakes up in the cdrama she's writing.
I actually really liked this mini series. I found TOSSARA quite boring - I skipped through most of the drama, but this one had some brilliant chemistry and some real drama and I was compelled the whole way through. Sad it was so short.
I’ve always wanted to but somehow have never gotten around to watching a Yoon Shi Yoon drama before, so it looks like this will be my first! Very exciting, I love his variety shows!
I read up a bit after I finished it and I definitely now understand generally that he is going to go back to kill his uncle instead of focusing on saving his younger self and him and his uncle have to enter their own void places at the same time to actually go back in time. But it's little things I didn't get like, Why did Lee Lim suddenly come out of hiding so suddenly - he has this big plan and yet when everything freezes he decided to face off with Lee Gon - I know the mum was dying but it seems strange that it was that easy. I'm also still not completely sure why Lee Lim wanted the flute - what does infinity and eternity mean? Also Lee Gon said to Shin Jae and Young that he hadn't told tae eul that he was going back to kill his uncle but that was just after he'd told her exactly that - I think. And the time travelling thing is messing with my head because if Lee Gon does go back in time to kill his uncle then older Lee Gon who had a reason to kill his uncle will never have existed so then surely his uncle wouldn't be dead. Also if Tae Eul could remember the first timeline her and Lee Gon met as well as the second then why would she not be able to remember him in the new timeline where they've never met. These might just be picky little things but maybe I wasn't paying enough attention and people actually know the answers haha. I really enjoy this drama, I just had a lot of confusion with ep15 - the major stuff I understand now though. Thank you for replying! Haha
I got KTEM until episode 14. Like I understood the plot and what was going on, but episode 15 has me so confused. I'm going to go into the final not having a clue what the hell is happening. I've always enjoyed and been able to make sense of the nonsense of this drama, but they've really stumped me this time...maybe I'm just being dumb, but what actually happened in episode 15. Went into the comment section hoping to see people discussing the plot of this drama, but that's definitely not what this comment section is for I guess.
Episode 7 and 8 stepped up the comedy even more. The boss trying to get into his car is one of the funniest scenes in any drama I think I've seen. But additionally the love story between Ha Ri and Yi Sang just continues to get more beautiful. I just love them both so much and I want him to tell her the truth ASAP so they can deal with it together as adults, but this is a kdrama and we are only half way through, so who knows how long that will take. There are a lot of brilliant dramas out at the moment but is definitely my favourite drama out right now - it's shaping up to be one of my favourites so far in 2020, I hope it keeps it up!
I feel like this drama was made for me. It's just everything I've ever wanted in a tv show. It's so weird and wonderful. It's not that I think it's a perfect drama that everyone will enjoy, but it's a drama that is perfect for me. Like a magical "conception dream" claw machine and a star crossed lovers gout movie spoof...what amazing writer would ever write such an amazing script - Ha Yoon Ah you're a genius and Jun Chang Geun captures their story in such a mystical way. I cry and I laugh every single episode, it's perfect!
I'm not loving it yet. I've only watched 2 hours so far, but I keep getting distracted and it's making me just really want to watch I'm Not A Robot again instead! It's from the same year and Yoo Seung Ho completely stole my heart in that. The problem may be that the last drama I finished was You Who Came From The Star and it's now one of my all time favourites, so any drama I watch after it is going to be a downgrade. I'm going to power through a couple more episodes because I hate dropping dramas!
I can't help but still find Park Ki Woong oddly charming, even though he's playing the bratty chairman's son, I can't help but still like him, even if it's just because I find his terrible scheming laughably bad. I love a villain that I can laugh at though! But I'm thinking the chairman may come off looking more like the "bad guy" than him in the end.
Being that YWCFTS was one of my first dramas I watched in the year I started drama watching had such an impact…
I’ve been watching kdramas for almost 4 years now, but somehow I only got to YWCFTS now. I can’t believe I waited so long! I had such a wonderful time watching it. It’s definitely a drama I’m going to remember for a long long time.
The posters and promos for this drama just keep making it look better and better. After that teaser I’m even happier that casting didn’t end up working out with Park Shin Hye. Just because Seo Ye Ji and Kim Soo Hyuns chemistry seems brilliant. (Also I only just finished watching You Who Came From The Stars for the first time and so I’m emotionally unstable right now and need some more Kim Soo Hyun in my life)
