Currently half way through the drama...so my thoughts might change a bit. But I've read the entirety of the manga…
"Unless, you are into ....interesting...scenes...... " Read your comment before watching and I was like....how weird can it be ? .... I was not prepared for what followed....
Cute fluff, with a portrayal of a really healthy relationship where leads actually tell each other lets communicate and then follow through! Although the direction some of the scenes took... really ruined this show for me so it can't be given that high a rating. An ok watch if you just want some light nonsensical romance.
Um, cringe aside I have to say this went wayyyyy above my expectations. Probably one of the best FL's I have seen in a drama of this genre (fast/obsessive/slightly toxic /lots of skinship romances). The acting from the FL was great and for once she was written smartly. She was strong but not in an OTT way, she wasn't stupidly reckless but not cowardly either, she understood logically what she had gotten in to, that it was bad for her, and accepted emotionally that she was in too deep already. Even the ending scene was written in that way that you appreciate the FLs intelligence. It's so rare to see an FL like this in a drama like this. Usually they just whimper and look madly uncomfortable but this one holds her own whilst still showing the audience her vulnerable side.
I really think this should be one of the few dramas that should be rated higher. Obvs there are cringe and cliche parts and I feel like the ML could have acted better, esp in the first few eps (it took me time to warm up to him). I also thought they were too obvious with the lighting and would have had a higher quality drama with more subtlety. But the writing/script kind of makes up for what it lacks.
Or it's just something happenjng and they distract attention using celebrities
YUP! Sk government has long used idol scandals to cover up bigger political issues. Tbf tax evasion is no joke but it is a little eyebrow raising that they are all coming out at once.
Er ... how are these "just allegations"? MYM have published a statement admitting that tax was underpaid, that…
"because most readers aren't interested in a list of sources." - not related to this article but I wish more readers were interested in sources! That's why now seem to have people who think the Earth is flat and measles are back!
agreed the ost album of this drama is so gold I can't emphasis enough!! the songs were telling a tale on their…
I am obsessed with with 半點心 by Grasshopper. Even my sister who hasn't watched many cdramas and defi not this one loved it and actually commented "where did you find this song- it's like something you would hear in an old chinese hair salon" LOL little did she know.......
40% of this drama's credit needs to go to the music director. Osts are always an added bonus to a good drama but honestly in this the music is used as if part of the script. It's so captivating.
I might put this drama on hold though cause I just can't deal with the angst I know is coming after ep 15. Not ready for heartbreak when Meet Yourself just healed me.
Hellbound won't be the same without him :( but I hope he takes time to get treated and the help he needs. Even if he steps away from the industry permanently he should just heal.
He'll probably go to jail too,meanwhile Big Bang Seungri got released recently only after a year in jail sigh.....When…
Yupp.....the burning sun scandal is all but forgotten but the victims and details of that scandal were so many and traumatic. NVM that only really seungri got jail time, none of the politicians etc that were part of it. They all got away scott free.
And someone who suffers from drug addiction (which let me repeat : is a disease) is treated like trash instead of taken for treatment.
He tested positive for propofol, cocaine and ketamine... not just mariuhanna. Propofol and cocaine are very dangerous...
I agree! He needs treatment and support, not to be shunned like the way netizens are doing. He needs fans to support him but in a "go get better and heal yourself" manner- not in a "who cares he can do no wrong" manner.
I really really like Yoo Ah In, he's a fantastic actor who really can portray emotions like very few can. I feel bad that the netizens are coming down so hard on him. Drug addiction is a disease and it's easy to be dismissive and act like he is scum like some are but seriously that's not how it works. I hope instead he starts getting treatment and support and comes out on the other side stronger.
Acting like he deserves whats coming to him is not the right way to act with addicts. Even if they made really really bad decisions that do have a ripple effect, if they can get the help (and importantly support!) they need then it does more good to society than shunning them away like criminals.

Recommend this one for those hesitating.
