kinda regret spending my time on this
started watching this series expecting it to be really bad judging by all these reviews.. oh they were rightthe only good thing about “tide of love” was probably the handsome actors
aside from that everything was terrible
the acting: i feel like we have to blame the director or smn else for that but not the actors cause i just KNOW they could’ve done better.. their acting was so unrealistic and unconvincing. they always looked like they were trying not to burst into laughter
the plot: there is not much to say about the plot because it simply is almost nonexistent. “tide of love” was supposed to be a korean version of “50 shades of grey” (i guess?) but it turned out to be some “50 loaves of bread” type of series because i just can’t understand why they were ALWAYS eating bread likee Jaehun is rich but the only food he has at home is bread? and they mentioned bread in their conversations really often
um anyway a short summary of the plot: haejun (a student) signs a contract with jaehun (his professor) and according to this contract he has to do everything his professor says? i don’t really remember but yeah and there is also this girl, let’s call her The apple girl, which is in love with haejun and tries to confess to him but jaehun gets jealous and doesn’t let her interact with his cookie. so boring and so cliche, i mean cliche is not a bad thing if it’s executed properly… but it is not executed properly here
the characters: there were only 3 characters btw and all of them are bland and unsympathetic.
haejun grunting and whimpering like he is in pain from every touch and jaehun looking like he belongs to mental ward. and the apple girl just being here.
there is also one particular thing i want to talk about and it’s the amount of mistakes and scenes that were probably supposed to be cut out but they couldn’t care less. like the plant moving by itself and the lav mic being visible and most importantly the sound not matching the character’s mouth movements.
at least i got a good laugh i guess…
