Instead of more episodes, I think they needed to cut the dramatic episodes sooner. It takes so damn long until they are together. And unlike hte start where everything is funny, theres so much drama in the middle. I would have done that shorter and make a longer happy ending

Just finished it. It's good, but I didnt enjoy it as much as I could have. I liked the start and the ending. But there are too many dramatic episodes in the middle. Cutting about 3 episodes of drama or changing them into something else would make this a 9 for me.

For me that-s totally a love triangle. There are several levels of love triangle annoyance, and this one isnt even the lowest.
Terrible: FL loves both
Bad: FL loves ML but still feels something for the other
Annoying: FL doesnt love the secondary one, but he still keeps insisting along a lot of episodes.
Doesnt matter: Theres another guy interested in her, but he never tries anything.

All those are different levels, but they are love triangles. At least for me, ofc each can think what they want.
The love triangle in this case is special, because she is "forced". But she is forced because of fate, not because a person is forcing her. And loving somebody because fate... kind of counts as loving him. Even tho that fate was put there on purpose by a god. I would put this one in the Bad category. It also lasts a crapo ton of episodes and takes a lot of screentime

I didn't like it. The FL was amazing and lovely, and that's why I still gave it a 7.5. But I just couldnt enjoy the show. Im not saying it is bad, just that it is not of my likeing.

I like happy stuff, and the first episode looked like this would be a pretty happy show. But then tragedy after tragedy after tragedy. Other shows with even bigger tragedies at least have a couple episodes where something gets fixed and you can enjoy the happy "aftermath". But that wasnt the case here. Sure, things got fixed and we saw a few happy moments here and there, but just specific short moments. There wasnt half an episode were you could just enjoy the romance for a while without something terrible happening.
Again, not saying it's bad, but I couldnt enjoy it.

Loved FL tho. I had seen her only as support character in other 3 dramas. Im happy she was the lead here and think she did amazing.

Loved the song too.

Well, I knew it was a happy ending. I only start dramas after making sure of it. So even at the sad part I knew it was going to be fixed. Maybe somebody who doesnt know it has a happy ending will enjoy last episode less :P

No way. Im not finished yet with this show. But in hometown cha cha cha its totally clear why they like eachother and get together. Here.... i mean, Im happy when they do, this is why I watch romances. But in real life with such behaviour they would have never gotten together. Episodes 2-5 would have make FL hate ML forever in real life.

Im exactly at that part. Yes, it feels a bit like you say. But IMO he is forcing himself to act like that because he needs her to pay back. He just met her, and ofc he likes her, but its still recent. So he tries to force himself to act tough. But even himself isnt likeing it.

Just finished. The first half was regular. But the second half was awesome and totally made up for it. It's funny, sweet, and a lot of cool things happen. And very lighthearted of course.
Oh, and I think I havent seen a drama with more kisses, stares, caresses and so on than this one.

I missed 2 things:
- Her beeing happy aboout her beeing Shi Ahns Sister in law (seriously, I dont get how she doesnt even mention it)
- Shi Ahn realizing she is The road to Shi Ahn

Man, the profile picture of this actress doesnt fit the 2 roles Ive seen her in at all xD (hometown cha cha cha and Oh my venus)

Sure there is 1 bad thing that happens. But unlike most other korean romances its not something bad between them. Its just an accident that happens to them and they beautifully overcome. And just one episode.
But those typicall things that happen in other dramas: beak ups, i will do this stupid thing to "protect you", family of one not likeing the other, problems between them, love triangles, and so on, never happen here. Its just a happy show.

Very good. Super lighthearted, funny and beautiful. The typical bad things that happen in korean romances dont happen here. Loved it.

Man, I was about to start this show, but I dont like rollercoasters and reading your comments (I dont mind spoilers) it totally looks like a rollercoaster.
Would you recommend it if I only like happy stuff?

I'm more than convinced to drop it. Even one-sided triangles annoy me, if she even is undecided, I won't watch it

Ok, I understand. I guess I just hate love triangles more than you, and even onesided ones annoy me :P

Of course, I know. But what do you need to call it an annoying love triangle? for her to cheat on the ML?
It lasts a ton of episodes, she spends a lot of screentime with with SML trying to court her, they are bonded by fate, and she even shows some signs of feeling something for him during a few episodes (just because of fate, but still), and if it werent for ML, you could totally say SML actually deserves her, he does everything for her.
I call this a pretty annoying love triangle.

Thanks a lot. This sounds very good then. Added it to my To watch list :)

If that is really the ending I dont know why I see so many comments saying its a happy ending for the main couple. Staying together but only beeing able to meet a few days a year is a happy ending?

Im thinking if I should start this show or not. Your comment "there's more angst than fluff towards the end" makes me doubt.
Are the last episodes all bad situations? I read theres a happy ending, but if its the typical 1 minute good ending after 2 or 3 bad episodes, I dont like it either.

I keep a list of Must watch kdramas and always add a description. Your comment will be the description for this one :P
