Its crazy how with the teasers I was looking forward to Jinju's storyline but now that the series started ? Watching…
I was looking forward to and tuned into Dan-Hee's storyline from the jump. Park Jin-Hee is a great actress and I remember seeing her in Giant a few years ago (or was it Hur Jun? One or the other lol) I knew Jin-Ju's storyline was gonna be basic as hell. BOR-INGGGG!!! Again, Gracious Revenge did better handling a dual protagonist structure. It seems like Dan-Hee is the true protagonist here.
Min-Jun is very boring, I agree. I definitely prefer Hyun-Jun right now. Jung-Ran is IRRITATING! Idk if that was intentional but props to KHJ for doing her thing anyway! 😂 The gag scenes are more distracting/jarring than genuinely hilarious- I'll say the only time I laughed was "the ghost scene" with Dan-Hee. (I think?) That landed well. Choi Jae-Sung played a villain in Left-Handed Wife, but it was a late-series role, I think. He's a pretty good actor and his portrayal of Park Tae-Ho is making me a fan of his lol
I like the plot and directing, but right now I'm not sure if I'll stick with this drama. Also, again: the characterization SUCKS!!! The only character who's remotely interesting is Dan-Hee! (But I like her assistant/bestie too.) All of the other characters are as complex as a piece of paper. Vengeance of the Bride wasn't like this either. Hopefully the writing improves.
PS: If you want a drama recommendation, watch Return! It's a crime/legal mystery-thriller. Murder mystery. (Idk why people call it a makjang, but yeah.) Park Jin-Hee played the recasted FL in this drama, who was originally played by Go Hyun-Jung.
Finally caught up with its pace. I wann dh to date gun ji without further delay. Jeong ran is slaying her character…
Maybe it's just me, but I don't like Jung-Ran's pronunciation/tone. Has Kim Hee-Jung ALWAYS sounded like this, or is this recent? Her voice is so grating! ðŸ˜
I feel like the pacing is extremely fast (maybe a little too fast.) Dan-Hee is the main character (one of 2),…
It's funny because I like Dan-Hee (Park Jin-Hee is a great veteran actress, after all), but everyone feels like stock characters. 💀 I think a Nan-Suk (MY GIRL!!!) here would work so well. It feels like they're trying to do that with Jung-Ran, but it's not working. It's WAY too over-the-top and really inconsistent tbh
Thank God Mi-Jung is dead, I could care less. 😂 But I guess this is how Nara gets tied into all of this and ends up working with Ja-Hye as a lawyer. Somehow, I don't believe In-Ho killed Mi-Jung!
I agree with your review, but I got the impression that now that HN is back he and JW can start their lives together.…
That's a good perspective! 🤔 Also, another viewer said that Chef Hong/Grandma said that SH and YC would thrive on their own away from their awful parents. Maybe that's why YC got away with everything? I don't mind open endings, I just wish more questions were answered. The writers introduced massive plot points only for them to never be addressed. This is definitely a good daily drama though.
Finally someone!!!! It's nothing like the previous dramas. It feels like usual mbc drama. Kbs lowkey fell here
Gracious Revenge did a better job handling an older & younger protagonist duo in my opinion. Acting is great though. Again, I just think the pacing is a bit too fast compared to most KBS2 daily dramas... usually they spend 20+ episodes on the past and this did not happen here at all. We'll be in 2025/26 by next Friday lol
Am I the only one who can't connect with this show. It's taking too long for the main story to start. They're…
I feel like the pacing is extremely fast (maybe a little too fast.) Dan-Hee is the main character (one of 2), so they obviously have to show her motive for revenge & her story first. Most daily dramas would spend WEEKS on this. My main problem with the drama, though, is most of the characters feel basic as hell. Like archetypes rather than real people, severely underdeveloped (again, excluding Dan-Hee) and it's... annoying. 🙄
She didn't even sound like this in Secrets and Lies!
They did! Also Yun-Jung and her brother make sense- they're siblings & have a sibling dynamic. Jung-Ran and the driver though... 💀
EXACTLY! Everyone feels so 1-dimensional except for Dan-Hee! Explain the low stakes though? 🤔
Min-Jun is very boring, I agree. I definitely prefer Hyun-Jun right now. Jung-Ran is IRRITATING!
