When we talk about love triangles, we usually picture rivalry, jealousy, or even betrayal between two friends. That’s the cliché. But A Hundred Memories dares to flip the formula. Ko Yeong Rye is in love with Jae Pil, but Jae Pil is drawn to Seo Jong Hee. The twist? Yeong Rye and Jong Hee aren’t rivals—they’re best friends. That choice changes everything.
Isn't this repeated and repeated again again in soulmate series of movies and dramas, Kim da mi's last movie and many other sequal of same story
South Korea is only country where criminals have support from Law (defamation law protect criminals more it has been used to Silance anyone against them) And has public that is more interested in forgive and defending criminals then calling them out Particular if it's a woman, Weird pseudo Faminist society
It's total garbage. Angels look more like villains I started rooting for PHS to get his girl back from fat ass villain Ma Dong Seak and his old pervert friend
Thanks for the honest review 🙌 It saved me from wasting time on this spineless ML drama. Early warnings like yours are super helpful. And don’t mind those self-righteous folks crying about “you can’t review if you dropped it” — your experience matters just as much. They act like higher ratings will put food on their table 😂.
how can you leave a review for a show you didnt even finish….. bad etiquette
Anyone who watched and dropped a show has every right to leave a review. That’s part of their experience, and it can be just as useful for others to know why someone didn’t finish. Reviews aren’t only for people who stuck it out until the end. You don’t get to decide what others can or can’t do—so maybe keep your “etiquette” to yourself.
Just three years? That's a significant penalty. He did the crime, he did his time. Let it go.
Oh, so you’re a rape apologist now? Three years banned from the industry is not “doing time” — that’s just a career break, not jail. And who exactly made you the authority to decide what’s “enough” for a sexual crime? The trauma can haunt victims for decades, but you think 3 years off work is fine? Pathetic.
Are you one of those people that can't separate real life from entertainment?
Funny how you’re acting like the celeb’s personal pet dog — so eager to jump in and protect your master. You even had time to dig up an old comment just to prove your loyalty. Impressive dedication… or maybe just boredom.
Honestly i think many actirs in korea can do better but its the writing and directing. Ive noticed many actors…
You're absolutely right—and you're not alone in feeling this way. That formula has become painfully predictable in a lot of K-dramas. The male lead (ML) is often the cold, rich, emotionally stunted heir with parent issues, while the female lead (FL) is the hardworking, quirky underdog from a humble background. Add in a few overused tropes—like "accidental cohabitation," "rich vs poor class divide," or "secret birth"—and you basically have 70% of mainstream dramas.
What makes it worse is that many Korean actors are incredibly talented, but they get boxed into these typecast roles because that’s what production houses think will sell. So instead of letting them experiment or grow, they keep replaying the same character arc with slightly different packaging.
Ironically, when shows do break the mold (like My Mister, Move to Heaven, Stranger, or Through the Darkness), they get massive critical praise—but those dramas don’t always hit huge mainstream numbers. So we end up stuck in a loop of "rich CEO + candy FL + trauma dump + magical love story."
It’s like someone in the K-drama committee said:
> “If he’s not rich, rude, and broken inside—is he even a male lead?” 😅
And if she’s not poor and too nice for her own good—then where’s the tragic Cinderella payoff?
