I kind of have rewatched this drama around 10 times (no skipping, all eps) and still get the feels.. Can anyone…
i love the drama trope where the leads are miserable in the beginning and then begin to heal. a few recs:
-- Lost (2021, kdrama) -- soredemo, ikite yuku (2011) -- Better Days (movie) -- Nagatan to Aoto (jdrama, this is another marriage of convenience trope with an angsty slow burn)
I just love how the drama tries to maintain the story as realistic and relatable as possible despite it revolving…
it's so hard to find a drama that doesn't fit the stereotypical kdrama narrative. like this drama does have some reused tropes (ceo x subordinate, love triangle, etc.), but even then it feels so realistic. such a breath of fresh air!!
just saw someone mention how they love how everyone just seems like normal people with very ordinary lives and i fully agree!!
It's nice to see a drama without all the crazy dramatics for once, ML and FL who can actually hold a conversation with each other and where we can actually see the chemistry + realistic progression of feelings.
And even Nam Dareums backstory as a fangirl, I feel like she is one of the most accurate depictions of a fangirl that I've seen in dramas. A very normal everyday kind of person who happened to discover an artist and connect with them. Even the making friends through similar music interests, and knowing things like video editing from being a fangirl.
i just realized Ryu Seung-soo and Jin Kyung have reunited in this drama after starring in Wonderful days as a couple, I knew the banter between them sounded familiar LOL!!
i wonder if they might be a pairing, looking forward to them, even though the dads character irks me really bad

Also brief mention to Truman Show
I'm up to ep 3 and have two Hong Kong movies so far -- Chungking Express and A Moment of Romance
curious if there are any more referenced and if there's a full list?
