I would have given this a 10 if not for the FL's character towards the end. Naive or stupid. But then again, no conflict, no drama. Anyway, I still love this series., but I am taking back my 10.
After 10 episodes, this is not on par with some well-loved Chinese rom coms. First, the characters are quite annoying with their constant squabbles, the ML is quite possessive and the FL is stupidly naive. And there are many annoying side characters. Anyway, since I have started this, I will just continue since this is just 24 episodes. But I have lowered my expectations.
I love this series. The question in my mind was answered with the ending scene with the little kids. Touching series and good cast acting. Actually, I would love to see the 4 musketeers and joon ho for another season. They have a very good working chemistry and their relationship is open for some good material.
Well, this is the first drama that I was eagerly waiting for new episodes, only to be duped by the ending! If I can say some words to my friends looking for a drama to watch - better stay away from this one, this is a mere slice of life that shows how life continues, that's just it!
It is just like knowing how your neighbor's life is going on a daily basis (reality TV drama), nothing spectacular. The writers took the word 'realistic' too literally, that she forgot this is a TV drama.
And this is the first drama which has my running rating of 10, but lowered it to 5 at the end!
Ep 35 - Desperation... Money... Yi Ming... Disgusting
But my rating remains a 10. Realistic and well-acted... though sad.... Every time I mention the word 'sad', Zhizhi's face comes up, she is my new definition of the word 'sadness'...
I still love this series although in typical K-drama fashion, I always see a supporting character confronting the antagonist first before being able to tell an important matter to another living soul. In almost all cases, that person will have some bad ending. So the drama continues. Anyway, I'm just ranting after watching ep 9. On to ep 10.
After 4 episodes, the story has some chance to be interesting but the execution of scenes is bad and the acting is so lame. The actors are just speaking the dialogues without any emotions involved. I wonder if there will be some improvements later.
I really enjoyed the first 16 episodes. But now ep 17 and the plot is getting questionable.
Even if the Secretary erases the call of the FL, the ML should have a minute or two to call her. He even has time to walk on a street with the Secretary, but he doesn't have time to call the FL?
I love The Bad Kids, but after finishing The Long Night, this has become on top of my list for the series. This is so good, my heart still bleeds for the victims. Bai Yu's acting is superb, I can't hold back my tears in the last episode. In fact, all actors here are very good. This is one series I will try watching again.
Finished the series. The final episode is another case of a classic K-drama trope. This is not a bad watch but it is not that great too. I binge-watch in 2 halves, and though it is enjoyable, it doesn't keep a lasting impression like other series.
Just finished the series. Well, it is not good but not that bad too, there are sporadic good scenes. But, overall, I did not enjoy this. They already have the material for a good story, they should have hired a better writer, so that the story would have a more natural flow with more realistic character development and not inconsistent personality of the characters, and mind-boggling scenes (like what happened to the house and other scenes with the friend).
Anyway. I will try the Thai version and see how it goes. But this one, ok, one of those ordinary rom-coms around.
After ep 12, I cannot count the number of times this series has made me burst into laughter (which rarely happens to me with other rom-coms). Superb acting and their chemistry overflows, plus the story doesn't push too hard, just the proper amount of everything.
Ep 21 is intense. The acting is superb esp Zhizhi. I looked at the preview for ep 22-23 and it is still not looking good for her. Gosh, I wanna slap the husband.
Just finished the film. Honestly, it's just an ordinary action flick using the zombies as stumbling blocks that they can outmaneuver. The main conflict is between humans and the plot lacks depth. I thought I will see more about the zombies, but I was transported to a Fast and Furious film. Anyway, it is not that bad for an action flick, it is just not worth remembering like Train to Busan.
I checked the first 3 eps and now I am wanting more. The leads have an undeniable chemistry. But the best part is the food, elegantly presented and prepared! Watching this makes me want to eat and eat!
