Again this is just my opinion, the ML was very attracted to the FL, eventually. Then the FL had the “heart beat” thing that she didn’t realize what it was.. because that’s a thing for 30 year olds in Kdramas. 🫣

However the FL confessed first and clearly!
She’s not a pushover, and fairly strong if a bit naive in the world.

I’m not sure if this helps or not…🤔

I like your user name, love triangle are the no fun!

Regarding this show, it - to me- is too close to call. There were little indications on both sides that there was a growing attraction. When you watch, it will be interesting to see what you think.

There is a definite lead who confessed first, but I don’t want to spoil anything because it’s been really enjoyable to watch!!
Enjoy!!

I love the original. And while slightly different, I loved this as well!

And no annoying kdrama “noble idiocy” trope was definitely appreciated!

This is one of the first Filipino dramas I’ve watched and it was fantastic. The main cast was cohesive and the story faithful to the original.
The expanded ending was an excellent choice!
(I wish Korean version did that as well!)

Exactly!
And nobody knocks before opening a door and then they just walk in.
I know they’re family but she could have been changing her clothes.
Privacy doesn’t seem to exist.
Ahhh kdrama problems.

I replied by message. The is a great, easy watch! At least for me. There are Very few dramas, that people agree 100% on it’s being great! So you should watch at least a few episodes and decide if it’s for you! And check your messages for answers to (most) of your questions. 😊

How many visitors can you have at your bedside in the ER!!?!

Perfect use of tsundere!!

Besides his abs, she saw a video of him smiling at her where her team was celebrating winning the competition at school.

She might have a biggest character arc at this point! 🤔

I thought I understood that he used the money in the past but returned it with interest… conveniently in the same box ac decade or more later! (I could be wrong.)🫣

I think your on to something there!
If not Koreans in real life taking responsibility for deaths they didn’t cause, it’s definitely Kdrama writers’ that do!!

Based on tv shows (like Law & Order) at least in the US, the prosecution has to share all evidence with the defense team.

Did the prosecutor’s father convict the FL’s father?
I think it was alluded to at the elevator.
And if that’s the case “ship” or not they won’t be together. 🫣

Thanks for the warning! The clip I saw on YouTube looked really well done and engaging in two minutes. That must have been from the early episodes. I really dislike these tropes and the misogyny of male dominated, non-equality based society often shown in many Asian dramas, be the J, C, or K.

I look forward to this “remake” with PMY and YSJ! I know some people complain about another office drama for PMY, but she excellent at playing her roles, especially in the Rom-Com arena.
(You don’t ask an accountant to take fix a broken bone, right? She is excellent at her craft.)
I have really liked PMY in all of her KDramas roles that I’ve watched.

It will be interesting to see how this drama Nine to Six flows compares to The Rationale Life. TRL was 35 (or more) 45 minute episodes, so it will be interesting to see how a 12 to 16 episode Kdrama handles this story!

I rewatched a few times (maybe more) since it aired. I am still surprised when I watch how horrible (treatment and general disregard) the ML was toward the FL in the first 2 to 3 episodes. I know it’s fictional but the way the FL was treated and mistreated was beyond sad and wrong. 🫤

King the Land, Gu Won (ML) [played by Lee Jun-ho] was very a very Green Flag, even asking permission before kissing the FL under the fire sprinklers. IMO

Very interesting topic!

Personally I think SR’s world always lacked love from a parental figure.

Maybe the way she was patented was the way the Chaebol/Mins show their “love” by fixing the child’s misdeeds making them live aboard in luxury but no Love.

I can’t imagine the chairman ever saying something lovingly to his children. He barely acknowledged SR and she was never shown in any father/daughter kind nurturing situations.
SR was out of the country until the start of the show, I think.

🤔 Keyboard to screen I think!
Though I grew up & graduated high school where’s they had a typing course not a computer lab! 🤣

I also don’t like especially sad, heavy or angsty Kdramas.
The preview I watched looked mighty heavy… but as we know: previews can be and are often misleading!
😊

🤯 That was very very insightful!!
Thank you for sharing - that helps me put many issues to rest!!
Are you watching First Man?
I look forward to more of your insightful posts & responses!

A well thought and logical reply. I can’t argue with it, it makes sense.
I’ll forgo the plea that JiSeop assaulted what he believed at the time was his sister, niece, stranger he knew for 20 years. In the final episode there was no time for resolution, apologies or repercussions.

As far as Manager Gong, she did commit a genuine crime regardless of reason. Taking someone’s child because the one you brought was probably dying is not a valid reason.
Even if you leave one as a replacement. Yes that’s a feeble attempt at facetious humor.
She still messed up two families with her “good intentions” or were they entitled thoughts.
Lucia’s child was hers to take because poor GC was not well?

(Truly I was surprised the MS had no health issues after being poisoned by “daddy SJ”.)

That is a good one and true too!
