so that big mistake by misunderstanding ml she did and all beating he got from her and that decision at the last…
1. The show starts with FL hating ML because of a missunderstanding. That's the premise. Doesnt make sense to hate FL because of it when it is the main topic of the show 2. She beat him, in a very comical tone, asked by him, and 2 minutes later he beat her. 3. The mistake she made about their separation, is exactly why this show is not a girls guilty pleasure fest like most asian dramas. It is ALWAYS ML who does that and then has to apologize. This argument is exactly the opposite of what you say. 4. Im not sure if you are the source of the wrong information I read in these comments before watching it. "not wanting to get married or having children ". That's absolutly untrue and/or taken out of context. She does not say she doesnt want children. That's false. And the marriage thing is taken out of context. You make it sound as if she didnt want to marry him because she is unsure, or wants to wait to see if they are serious, or something like that. THat's not true. She said, she doesnt want to marry because she doesnt like korean marriage culture. Not marrying because she isnt sure yet, it is too soon, or something like that would indeed sound unromantic. But that's not it. She just doesnt want to marry. That's totally fine. She clearly loves him compeltly, he is the one, she clearly shows it. Marrying is just a procedure you can or can not do, and many couples prefer not to marry, has nothing to do with the amount of love. I married my wife when we already had children just because it had some burocratic benefits
Just finished it. It is a very enjoyable short show. It is very fun and lighthearted. Yes, something happens in the last episode, but I usually hate that stuff and it didnt bother me in this show. Maybe because of the comical tone, maybe because since it's so short everything happens quite fast. But I would totally categorize it as very lighthearted.
About people saying FL was annoying/bossy/treated ML wrong.... I totally disagree. And let me tell you, Im a guy who hates how many asian dramas try to please girls guilty pleasure. I dont think this show is like that at all. On the contrary, finally its FL who does somehting wrong, knows it, and aproaches ML with her head down. In 99% of these shows it's the opposite.
A quintessentially wonderful, lovely and well-done romantic comedy. I have not seen a rom-com this good in a very…
i dont mind if they are annoying at the start, but I read some comments saying FL is annoying at the end too. You disagree? because I dont want to watch a show with an annoying FL
This is one of those comments: "and one thing is I dislike the most is that he was dreaming to get married and have a family and children but he has to tolerate that she don't want anything if that and accept to be with her a submissive boyfriend, and her reason to do that is so stupid, she's crazy to think she's some superwoman saving women from cheaters and take revenge on them by being a cheater and to use your body to accomplish that!!!?"
another comment: "She remains a B**** at the very end as well..! Getting back together with the ML doesn't purify her past actions though 😅😅" And peopple answer they agree with it
This is such a re watch type drama I have watched it over 3 times now.
I was about to start it, but then scrolling down I read quite some bad comments about it. About how FL is absolutly not right towards ML, that they use the last episode to create trouble (come on, in the last episode...) and even something about a breakup.
Doesnt sound good or rewacthable at all. Is all that true?
This is a show.... a romance show... Telling a romance lead character not to wait for his love is like talling an action lead to not be unrealistic strong
One character has unrequited love for FL. She makes it clear to him that she doesn't feel the same way. FL only…
He is very annoying. Luckily, FL is straghtforward all the time, so this saves what could have been a terrible love triangle. But that guy never stops. And her family support him, thats the msot annoying part.
Curious Question, Generally what would you guys think is more important?1. Good plot but you dont like any of…
Depends on what you include as part of the plot. Since this is a romance, I guess you are talking about romance shows. The chemistry and happiness of the romance is considered plot, or characters? Because those are the msot important things in a romance. of course it changes in other genres
This show had the best conversations between leads Ive seen in any romance. Im curious to know which romance dramas you like if you find this one boring.
Just finished watching Lighter & Princess. I didnt enjoy it much because of the constant annoying problems, but FL was the MVP. She was amazing. Only this girl made the show worth watching
Ok, finally finished watching it. I have watched 166 asian dramas, and this is the hardest to rate of them all.…
Ok, so the second problem of the show, besides the constant problems, is surprising, because it should be the best part of the show.
Do you know in most romances how the leads grow closer and closer together, and theres one point where you cant wait anymore and are dieing for them to finally get together and be able to see them as a couple? When it finally happens you grin like an idiot, and in most romances, the following episodes are the best of the show.
Well, in this show, it starts like that, they grow closer and closer together, and theres a point you cant wait anymore.... and yeah! they get together. They finally kiss, confess to eatchother and.... SURPRISE MOTHERFKER, "3 years later" message appears on screen....
I almost spat my drink. And no, that time isnt shown with flashbacks or anything. They just skip it....
So yeah, instead of finally being able to see the 2 characters you have been watching grow closer together for 18 episodes.... you get to watch a 3 year old relationship, of a couple already accustomed to eatchoer, that already has done every thing interesting in a new relationship...
This is crazy, first time I see it in a romance. Even shows where romance is just a secondary plot dont do this...
Like I said, scriptwriters just want to move things forward faster to reach the annoying part sooner, which is the part they want their show to focus on
EDIT: I remembered another bad thing, the leads get together in episode 18, which is nice in a 36 episode show... except that they breakup in episode 22 and dont get together again until episode 35. Thats very very bad for my likeing. They are only together 5 episodes of 36....
Ok, finally finished watching it. I have watched 166 asian dramas, and this is the hardest to rate of them all. I totally understand now why it has so many mixed reviews, some saying it is amazing and some hating it.
Lets start with the good things. Number 1 by a big margin: FL. She is the MVP of this show. Not only is the acting great, but her character is amazing, a pleasure to watch, and the one carrying the romance, and the show . As a male watcher, who is tired of seeing how almost every asian romance tries to please girls guilty pleasures, like for example FL making ML apologize forever or FLs who treat secondary love interest too well or most MLs ALWAYS being much more in love than FL after the get together, and so on...., this FL is just a pleasure to watch. She is 100% flawless in the romance, through every problem, the entire show. Not once is she annoying when often even FLs I love have some annoying parts.
2: MLs acting is great too, and his character is interesting and often very likeable. He also has quite some dislikeable moments, but still, it's a great ML.
3: Their chemistry is VERY good. Another strong point of this show.
So yeah, those things are amazing, and they are very important things in a romance. So I understand the many amazing revierws it gets. But, and here comes the big but, I still couldnt enjoy the show, so I also understand all the negative comments.
It took me a long time to finish the show. I stopped all the time, watched some youtube videos in between, even fast forwarded scenes... The show just doesnt want you to enjoy the good things it has. Not only do a lot of bad things happen in the show, but it is clear those are the things the scriptwriters wanted to focus their show on.
The show doesnt want you to feel happy. It prefers to delight itself on constant drama. The show is 90% problems and 10% happiness. I dont watch romances for this, I watch a thriller if I want constant bad things happening. I dont mind if I watch a movie where the entire planet perishes, or game of thrones where every character you thought was the main lead suddenly dies. Those genres are suited for that. But when I watch a romance, I want to grin like an idiot, not watch some stupid problems which dont make sense at all ruin 90% of the show.
Regarding this topic of "problems not making sense", you will read many comments of fans saying "it's so good, because it is realistic, because real life has problems...." Bullshit! Real life has problems, that is true. But not the problems depicted in this one, and many other dramas. Mainly, because 90% of drama breakups are because of Noble Idiocy. Let me tell you something, nobody in real life is almost perfect, loves his girl, is loved by his girl, but has 1 problem and breaks up with his girl and pushes her away to "protect" her from that problem, even if she just wants to be with him like crazy and he destroys her life pushing her away... Realistic? Bullshit, that's fanatics of the show trying to convince themselves that their beloved show is "so realistic". And Im talking about dramas in general, not only this one. I remember the same happening in "Our secret". It was the same, many comments saying it was realistic because it had problems, and when I watch it, those problems would never ever happen in real life. Even no problems at all is more realistic than this crap, because it at least happens sometimes in real life, while ridiculous problems like noble idiocy never happen in a real relationship.
So yeah, ridiculous problems all the frikin time is one of the things that make the show worse. But there is another reason, a very surprising one that makes the show worse. But to explain it I have to say spoilers, so Ill write it in response to this comment with spoiler tags.
Again, the show has amazing things, the leads and their chemistry, which is VERY important in a romance. It is a pleasure to watch them interact, even when they arent a couple. So Im not saying it is a bad show. Im just saying it has very good things and very bad things. I think I will give it a 7.5 rating, which is the lowest score I give to shows while still reommending watching them.
Id love to see these 2 leads doing a drama from other scriptwriters who dont rejoice in creating absurd problems.
Just started, but I feel a bit uneasy about it. Looks like it will have a bad and long breakup
I like some of those shows you mentioned. Not saying I dont like this one, just that I would prefer it without some crap it has.
And again, problems don't equal real life. Sure, in real life there are problems unlike in lighthearted dramas. But when the problems are totally the contrary as of how real people would act, then no problems is more real than fake problems.
Just started, but I feel a bit uneasy about it. Looks like it will have a bad and long breakup
It is quite important. Im not the only one looking for dramas without breakup. I chat with a lot of people who look for dramas with happy ending, no breakup, no annoying love triangles, and such things.
This is 100% a breakup. What you call "but their story is so complicated" is what happens in 99% of every drama breakup. They never breakup like in real life. In every drama there is a reason to breakup when they really still love eatchother. This breakup is nothing special, its the 101 of drama breakups.
Now Im not sayiong I wouldnt have watched the show. I didnt start the show for months because of this, but I was finally convinced to watch it despite the breakup. It was just wierd to then read a comment saying they dont break up.
About the show, their chemistry is amazing, and I love both leads. But the show has many many annoying things. Im not sure yet how I will rate it. Well and I still have almost half the show left, so lets see
2. She beat him, in a very comical tone, asked by him, and 2 minutes later he beat her.
3. The mistake she made about their separation, is exactly why this show is not a girls guilty pleasure fest like most asian dramas. It is ALWAYS ML who does that and then has to apologize. This argument is exactly the opposite of what you say.
