It’s been 8 months so I’m not sure if you’ve seen it already, but if I remember correctly from when I watched it while it was airing, there’s no love triangle aside from her ex husband ofc

Also the female lead is really mentally strong, so she doesn’t put up with anyone’s nonsense lol

seems like jcw has more screen time in the teaser than i thought lol.. while translating i noticed when jjh says "those guys" at the start of the teaser the guy behind her in the suit with his hair up is definitely jcw lol

translations for the character who had dialogue in the teaser

Jun Ji Hyun (Se Jeong): "Those guys.. At first, they walk on four legs, Then they walk on two legs"

Ji Chang Wook: "What the…? Are those bastards copying/following us right now?"

Jun Ji Hyun (Se Jeong): "It seems like they’re making progress"

Koo Kyo Hwan (villain?): "It’s about propelling humans to the next stage"

if you don't mind can you share it with me..

I had high expectations going in but the teaser kind of lowered them. It felt like a story I’ve seen before to the point where I could guess how it might play out. I really hope that’s not the case and the show proves me wrong

sadly those subs and the raws you gave me don't sync up.. but i'm trying to find the raws for these subs but no luck so far lol

The trailer for Ji Chang wook’s Indonesia variety show trailer has 110+ million views lmao crazy

Here’s a new jcw and Kim Shin Rok scene with good quality

https://x.com/lona_jcw/status/2001318864060121289?s=46

I watched it multiple times trying to recognize him and I think he shows up at 0:07 (the person slashing the zombies looks like him) He also appears again at 0:10 as the third character introduced and his name 지창욱 appears

Binged all 9 episodes… the more I watched, the more confused I got. Even after all 9 episodes it felt like not much happened, yet I couldn’t stop watching. Not sure what kind of “drug” they put on show but I genuinely loved it...it was ridiculously funny too.

also Mizumachi calls Tonari a dimwit and honestly… he really is a dimwit lol.. like he's has photographic memory but does absolutely nothing with it lol

ohh this is coming out in may...the teaser trailer got leaked cuz they're playing it in theatres right now

This was a 10/10 until the last few episodes, and then it just went downhill for me. The fl after getting back with her ex literally had to be dumped by her physically abusive fiancé/boyfriend who disappeared and didn’t contact her for over two years?? That alone was so annoying and unnecessary, like why was that the trigger for the leads getting back together lmaoo

And the ml… honestly, he annoyed me too. There was absolutely no reason to act all cool and distant. If you like her, go after her and be a man Instead of just hiding behind that whole “game” situation you trapped himself into and doing nothing.

Also, I really disliked that girl who was clearly only after a rich guy to marry. I genuinely don’t understand what the ml’s friend saw in her cuz there’s no way I’d be obsessed with a woman who’s dating me just because she thinks I’m rich. Even early on when he straight up told her “I’m not rich,” she brushed it off like “lol you’re joking” ......that was the exact moment I completely lost hope in her. But I guess the ml's friend was just blinded by her looks

Anyway, I’d give this a 6/10 overall. If you want to watch it until their break up, go ahead because it’s genuinely really good up to that point. After that though… just drop it lol

Maybe I’ll check it out once I forget the reviews I read a few days ago. Anyway thank you for everything.. I hope our paths cross again in the future

sorry to bother you again but do you happen to know where i can get the subtitles for these raws???

Thanks for the list.. Love Is War is pretty simple ngl but I really enjoyed the dynamic between the leads...... There’s also this drama called A Girl & Three Sweethearts....what do you think of it? I was interested until the reviews ruined my excitement even tho it's rated 8. Do you think it’s worth watching?

tbh, I probably would’ve dissed it if it weren’t for Meet Me After School and Falling High School Girl and Irresponsible Teacher. these two dramas made me realize I don’t have to agree with or relate to the characters to appreciate a story...if it’s compelling and keeps me interested, why not give it a chance? So now I don’t really mind watching it even though I know the relationship is wrong lol

Also, it’s kind of frustrating how low rated a lot of jdramas are on mdl, even when they’re genuinely good. Those ratings alone probably turn so many people away before they even give them a chance which is a shame cuz it really doesn’t reflect the quality or how interesting the story actually is

anyway so far in my jdrama journey, out of 30+ shows I’ve watched I’ve only rated four a full 10/10. But cuz of those few, I think I’ve completely fallen in love with jdramas. They hit in a way that feels really memorable, and they’re the reason I wish they’d just keep making more stories like this endlessly.. if you haven't seem them i highly recommend them lol

Unmet: A Neurosurgeon's Diary
Falling High School Girl and Irresponsible Teacher
Good Luck
Kaguya-sama: Love Is War

well a good script this these leads would be nice too ngl... but the drama isn’t even out yet, so why worry. I’m just happy they’re working together so I’m satisfied with that for now

ahhh no no don't spoil.. I just meant I’m really compelled to see where it goes, so I want to experience the ending myself..... i only asked/brought it up cuz I wanted to recommend it to you 😅

though I guess someone who’s still new to the jdrama world probably shouldn’t be recommending anything jdrama related to someone who’s been watching for years lol

weather this going to be good or bad doesn't matter.. the fact that jcw and Imada Mio are the leads makes it an absolute must watch lmaooo

I’m about 8 episodes in... gotta say It’s dangerously easy to binge and the fact that each episode is only about 24 minutes does not help lol but I really need a breather. I’m not expecting a happy ending at all tho where I’m at in the story, it’s obvious their relationship is wrong. Still, who am I to judge? and at the end of the day I’m not watching to relate to them or justify anything they do. I’m just oddly compelled by how raw and uncomfortable it is, and more than anything, I want to see how it all ends
