I love Mork uncles so much, I have loved them…

I love Mork uncles so much, I have loved them since the first time they appeared, but in this episode a bit more! They really do care for him and they (try to) set a good example try to guide him and support him, amazing!It was particularly important because it helps Mork in his own journey of realization through this episode. He went from "I don't like guys" to "Fuck! I might be bisexual! Also... I think I like you Tawan!" real quick!Poor Tawan is working so much to get time to spend with Por, and Por not only cheat on him but also GHOSTS HIM?!Por I know why you are angry and you are not completely wrong feeling like that but cheating and ghosting are really not the right answers and they also makes me hate you a little bit...Nadia finally knows the truth and I hope things will move in the direction I want them to move! She deserves someone nice in her life, but she has to open her eyes first! Mayom since to be a nice guy (at the moment, at least...)A really interesting thing is happening between Toy and Boss! Toy... Sweetheart... If you wanted to go on a date with Boss so bad, I'm pretty sure there would have been a better way to reach this goal, without being an asshole... 🤦🏻‍♀️I'm also very curious to know what's up with Boss and his fear of certain loud noises! Hope we'll discover something in the next episode!

Wasn't expecting a show called Coffee…

Wasn't expecting a show called Coffee Melody to have such a chaotic relationship with its OST! I found the way they managed it a mess! There were times were two songs were overlapping creating confusion. I don't know if they did it to avoid copyright issues (in the case of the carillon with "Itsumo nando demo) or for other reasons I didn't think of, but I didn't particularly enjoy this decision... This first episode didn't exactly conquer me, but I'll give it a chance! An unexpected surprise was Duean Yi character, I wasn't expecting him to be so cheeky and straightforward, I honestly spent the entire episode envying him a little, because I could never! And Plegrak is responding positively?! GOOD FOR THEM! Last, but not for importance, shout out to the "Call me by your name" poster in the Café! Amazing!

What's the worst crime a series can commit? Be boring

The series started with the usual trappings of any makjang trying to be melo. It wanted to show the characters' feelings and how tragedy befelled the FL and also how everyone around her has benefitted from crimes committed against her and her family. Unfortunately it doesn't do it very well. It starts with the FL doing something questionable to draw the gaze of her target towards herself and it was so cringe, I can't even. The pull between the two leads that actually forms the conflict for her, whether she should stick to revenge or whether she should seek out love is not present. The script continuously tries to say they're drawn to each other but we never actually see it. The ML's acting is especially stiff. There are ways to show emotionally closed off without actually looking like you just got botox. Everytime they're on screen their chemistry is cringe. It'll make you want to fast forward to see the rest of the plot. Which by the way is so predictable that'll you can walk away from it to do the dishes and still not miss a beat on return. And seriously, what is up with the ML literally picking his mistress over his child (during the glass breaking scene)? This drama has been disappointing. Not just in terms of plot but also in terms of the acting. I'd say skip this one, its boring beyond words.
