I'll be honest, I like this a lot more than Only for Love. I see some dropping this because there is not much focus on romance, that is true, but even the business struggle is not that bad. But I do understand that sometimes we have to be in the mood for this type of drama. I love that almost everything in this drama feels natural and realistic specially after the initial episodes, even how their relationship develop is also very organic. I got mad cringe in Only for Love and had to drop it at some point even though I love Dylan and BaiLu. In comparison. I'm really liking RwtW despite the slow and steady pace.
Dropping this at ep11, story is moving way too slow for my liking
I think you should carry on atleast to ep14. by then the romance starts to slowly manifest and you kinda starts caring about TengYue. This one is really a slowburn.
ep11, the actress who plays ZhaoYang is so bad. That scene with confronting her mom is so bad, one of the most awful acting in Cdramas I've seen in a while. It's kinda ruining the show
I paused at ep3 but it surely got better around ep4. First time it made me cry when she moved to the factory and started giving up her pride. GongJun's character here is kinda blurry, he's portrayed as ruthless at times but it's hard to see GongJun as a bad character lol. I still keep seeing Ling Rui in him (his character in Begin Again), he has such a likeable and kind looking face that it's difficult to see him as a negative character. Will keep watching and hope it will continue to be good onwards.
I will give this a try, I know the synopsis seems cliche but as long as the script is not cringe it can still work. I don't really mind toxic ML and doormat FL as long as done correctly haha and I would like some angst and towards some point see the ML suffer. Let's see how this one goes.
finally caught up with the latest ep. I love this so much, I hope they'll return for a new season. I love their friendship and genuine laughter, you can tell they are so comfortable around each other. This show format would not have worked or would have been boring if they put casts who do not know each other, but because they are close friends they have such good chemistry. I don't even understand Yut Nori game but I was laughing so much with them. It must be amazing having a friendgroup like this in real life.
I'm on ep2 and I'm really enjoying this. It's not over the top comedy with crazy antics, but more like a healing show with genuine funny moments. I'm loving how they blend with each other. KiBang really looks like a farmer ahjussi, I love how cheerful he is and laughs at everything WoBin is like a rich city boy who got sent to the countryside as punishment, he complains a lot but surprisingly it's not annoying and he does contribute KyungSoo is like that farmer's son who's hardworking and smart but also quiet, it feels like he kinda forgets they're shooting sometimes with how focus he is with the task And KwangSoo, well KwangSoo is Kwangsoo, he's like the crazy bestfriend of the cityboy, always brings in hilarious scenarios haha
As a Dylan and BaiLu (and even Miles!) fan, it pains to have to drop this. The story feels really juvenile. At the moment I'm liking the maturity in Rising with the Wind more, but let's see if it can also sustain that.
Honestly, only Lee JungHye is the smart one in the villain team. The ex-bf is such a loser who always look constipated, and his sister is dumb greedy, YooRa is arrogantly dumb, and DoGuk's brother is just pathetic. They all bark and sneer and then they get served five minutes later.lol They are seriously outnumbered by the other side, specially DoGuk's fam, his Mom by herself is already a force to reckon with.
I thought I'd be frustrated by today's episode but I'm glad it ended positively. This is the good thing about this drama, it's full of cliche but it doesn't drag. There is always a hurdle each episode but they always end satisfyingly.
I also wonder what happened to ChungAh's mom, so I rewatched the clip. My initial assumption is perhaps her Mom cheated on her Dad (given that he's always on business trips), hence it was a bitter divorce where she wasn't allowed to visit her daughter anymore.
But after rewatching, I have some doubts that that lady is even her biological Mom. Kinda strange that the same day the 'ex wife' supposedly left is the same day the new 'bad tutor' arrived. This makes me conclude that the first lady is actually not ChungAh's real Mom but also just another tutor. And when ChungAh's dad found out that she was teaching ChungAh sign language and also projecting herself as her Mom, the Dad didn't like it so she got fired.
And then comes immediately the new tutor, and because she was a liar that she can teach ChungAh to talk and the Dad thought she's making progress, the Dad officially recognised them in the family registry so ChungAh can atleast have one present parent. Maybe the incident with the first tutor made the Dad realise that ChungAh needs a mother figure and the 'bad tutor/stepmom' was able to fake it.
am I the only one wondering about what happened to Cheong Ah's mom?
ohh I just commented above this too haha

The Dad seemed to me a logical and not really a bad person, so I still doubt that even if there was bitter divorce, he would have still allowed ChungAh to meet her Mom.

They make me wanna go farming too.
