Insanely good
You can watch it on Viki: https://www.viki.com/tv/41508c-the-lie-we-lived-in#episodesLet me start by saying this—some people are not made to be cops. Right? And one of these people is Tae Jeong. He is just not made for this, as much as I love this guy, I can go on a rant for an hour naming all of the reasons why he is not made to be a cop. But I'll stop with just that.
The first few episodes got me so hooked I had to binge the whole series in one sitting. I can't imagine how people watched while it was coming out two episodes a week, because I genuinely was stressing so hard each episode that I thought my heart would stop. Not every series can make you feel this way, so I'm happy I got to experience it with this one.
While there were things that I disliked, I did not dock any points from the rating because of them. Because in my opinion it's just that good, I loved it, I was entertained, and I thoroughly enjoyed every second of this series despite all of the things I disliked. And I will definitely be rewatching it again.
Things I liked:
1. They did the best they could with the budget they had. Throughout the series, it's easy to tell that it's a low-budget series. Still, I think they did a great job at using what they had.
2. Good acting.
3. The chemistry. That was on another level, which only shows how good the acting was.
4. An actually new and exciting premise. Each episode had me in a chokehold, and I was actually invested and entertained the whole time.
Things I disliked:
1. AI intro. Can we stop with AI slop? I know it's cheaper and easier, but that's genuinely disgusting.
2. I find it insane how Tae Jeong didn't consider thinking even for a second why his friend had a secret basement in his house with a giant cage and a lot of guns. You see all that, and instead of asking questions, you let him out, and then you dare to say, "I didn't know he would go that far" you can't be a cop.
3. Rushed ending. While I'm happy they got to have their happy ending, it was so obviously rushed and, of course, made into the classic KBL ending with main leads meeting at the beach.

Period drama with comedy
I truly enjoyed watching this period drama. There is a great mix with drama, political intrigue, and comedy. The only downside I found was that 40 episodes are always too long, but I finished it anyways. The music is much to loud and intense during this series. The series could have made a good ending after episode 34.Cet avis était-il utile?
A Story About Vengeance And Justice
I went into this on a whim with no expectations and was surprised by just how good it was. A victim of human trafficking escapes after her mother is killed trying to protect her and is now out for justice. Under a new identity she does whatever it takes to get close to the woman who destroyed her life and take her down.A lot of dramas with serious subject matter treat them like a “cool, traumatic character story”, a reason for the main character to be a badass. This show actually treats this story seriously.
The villain is incredibly evil. But she’s real evil. She acts the way a lot of real life evil people do. It’s not about being wicked, it’s about profit, power, and status. People who do this don’t see their victims as people. To them they are chattel. Something to be used or discarded at their discretion. It’s harrowing.
And our main character is not a badass revenge machine. She’s a person. A traumatized person, a person out for vengeance, but still just a normal person. She’s not a hardened killer, she’s not a super spy, she’s not emotionless and perfectly tactical. I love that she makes slip-ups, gets taken off guard and hurt, questions herself, gets scared. Sometimes you feel like maybe this is just too dangerous and she should walk away. But she’s a strong person.
There's scheming, melodrama, and all that normal dorama stuff, but it's always a clear story focused on a message. I think it was executed pretty amazingly. My small gripes are: there's 1 out of nowhere fourth wall break, the "native English speaker" side/background characters in England are not good at English and were very hard to understand, and there were a handful of shots with bad visual compositing effects (It was super obviously shot on green screen)
Ultimately though this could be seen as a cool story of revenge for what was done to her, it’s actually about protecting people so no one goes through what she did. The ending (I will not spoil) is fitting.

What a waste
I really wanted to like this, I cant take it anymore. So slow and boring. In one and only ML was a confident warrior so much on screen presence. Why in this is he a nerd afraid of his shadow. He could have been reincarnated with a little swag geesh. At least FL is still confident and going after what she wants.Cet avis était-il utile?

It has all the good things.
This series is adorable and everything feels just right. It covers all genre's I like. It's short, Angsty and has unrequited love. Even though I like short dramas, for this series in specific, I think it should've been a lot longer. If I'm super honest, at first I wasn't excited at all to start this, due to K-BL's often failing to reach what they actually want to. But after watching this, I was genuinely surprised.I will mention this again and again, in every single one of my reviews until my opinion changed, but I often refuse to watch Korean Bl's. Due to the lack of representation and the overall pretty unrealistic events. I feel like Where your eyes linger is an extremely well done Korean Bl. What I really like about this series, is the angst. Choi Hye Mi pissed me off extremely much. Even if she seems a nice and honest person, she was really just getting in the way of them. I don't think Kang Gook should've even tried flirting with her in the first place, when his feelings are totally towards Tae Joo. But from his POV it's understandable given that he didn't expect Tae Joo to ever like him back.
The yearning was amazing. As a yearner myself, I just love it when it's done great. What surprised me is that both Tae Joo and Kang Gook yearned for each other. But Tae Joo was a bit of a red flag, he did seriously not have to keep playing girls. Due to me thinking Tae Joo was a bit of a red flag, I forgot to kinda focus on his POV...
Although I'm sort of not familiar with the cast, I have to say their acting was amazing. Especially Jang Eui Soo's acting. I said I 'sort of not familiar' but that's because most series Jang Eui Soo and Han Gi Chan play in, have been on my watch list for quite some time. I seriously have to watch them, especially since their acting skills are sooo good. The director, Hwang Da Seul is amazing. She makes a lot of amazing series and I like her taking on this job. The combination of her and Shin Yoo aaaah.
Overall, this was amazing. I really suggest watching it for people who enjoy Angst, Unrequited love yearning and shorter drama's. The ending was amazing, just hoped to see more of them except for a return kiss. I was watching and writing this super tired so ignore the amount of mistakes. I also don't have a Beta reader or something hahhaha.

Vale a pena ver denovo
Venho corrigir um erro que cometi ao assistir Encounter pela primeira vez, que foi não escrever uma review (eu era nova no mundo dos doramas e neste site) sobre esta história linda e que posso afirmar, depois de assistir pela segunda vez, que este é um dos meus k-dramas favoritos da vida.Que alegria perceber que ao rever essa trama cinco anos depois da primeira vez ela continua muito especial e tudo o que eu senti da primeira vez voltou agora com força.
O que eu mais amo, claro, é o casal principal. Park Bo Gum e Song Hye Kyo criaram uma dinâmica que funciona tão bem que é impossível não torcer por Jin Hyuk e Soo Hyun, que são fortes juntos mesmo sendo completamente opostos: ele é o Sol e ela a Lua, ele pobre e ela rica, ele esperançoso e cheio de planos enquanto ela é triste e resignada a uma vida infeliz. O que poderia surgir deste encontro? A coisa mais linda que existe num relacionamento: um despertar o melhor no outro.
E eu admiro muito a força e a determinação da Soo Hyun, não apenas como a CEO de um grande hotel mas como ela lida com todas as pressões da mãe, ex-sogra, imprensa e sociedade sobre o papel que ela deveria ocupar como uma mulher divorciada. Ela trafega por tudo com a firmeza de que deve ser ela a responsável por escolher o caminho que quer seguir para alcançar a felicidade.
Outros pontos de acerto são: a trilha sonora que eu amo todas as músicas e sempre as revisito.; as artes no início e fim de cada episódio que dão um ar de conto de fadas, e o primeiro episódio em Cuba, que pra mim foi um grande diferencial e um charme.
Com certeza é uma história que verei novamente muitas outras vezes.

A Surprisingly Fun Mix of Romance, Business, and Office Politics
Filing for Love is one of those dramas that I went into without particularly high expectations and somehow ended up having a genuinely great time with. It isn't groundbreaking, and the overall plot isn't exactly something I haven't seen before, but the combination of great casting, strong performances, workplace investigations, business politics, comedy, character dynamics, and a surprisingly mature romance made it much more enjoyable than I expected.At its core, this is a workplace rom-com, but I think calling it just a rom-com undersells what made it fun for me. There is company politics, corporate power struggles, ethical investigations, suspense, romance, and plenty of comedy. The story follows Joo In-ah (Shin Hye-sun), the new head of Haemu Group's Audit Office, and Noh Ki-jun (Gong Myung), an ambitious auditor who finds himself demoted after In-ah arrives and restructures the department. Naturally, he isn't exactly thrilled about having the new boss responsible for his downfall.
One thing I particularly enjoyed was the business side of the drama. Honestly, I'm not sure why this isn't classified as a business drama because, in one way or another, the entire story revolves around the company. The characters' relationships, conflicts, investigations, career ambitions, internal power struggles, and even parts of the romance are all connected to the business environment.
The workplace isn't simply there as a backdrop for the love story. The auditing, corporate politics, executive power struggles, and workplace misconduct cases are all important parts of the narrative. Even when the story moves away from individual cases and into larger executive-level politics, it still feels connected to the same world.
I especially enjoyed the transition from the individual audit cases into the larger executive office politics. What could easily have felt like two completely different dramas was actually handled quite smoothly. The story gradually moved from smaller workplace investigations to bigger corporate conflicts involving the company's leadership, while simultaneously bringing in the characters' personal histories and unresolved feelings.
I liked how the business conflicts and personal relationships became increasingly intertwined. Past feelings, present relationships, career ambitions, corporate power, and company politics all started affecting one another, but the transition never felt particularly forced to me. It felt like a natural progression of the story rather than the writers suddenly throwing in a completely different plot halfway through.
And then there is the romance, which was easily my favourite part.
I absolutely loved the dynamic between In-ah and Ki-jun. The reverse power dynamic was such a refreshing change from the usual workplace romance. In-ah is the superior: intimidating, highly competent, incredibly driven, and very much in control. Ki-jun, meanwhile, is younger, more openly emotional, ambitious, and much more expressive. Instead of the usual cold, powerful male boss and timid female employee setup, we get a woman who is professionally dominant while the male lead is the one who is much more open about his feelings.
That dynamic was SO much fun to watch.
I especially loved that Ki-jun never needed to undermine In-ah's competence to make himself look better. He was understandably frustrated about being demoted, but he could still recognize how capable she was. Their relationship gradually moved from rivalry and frustration into genuine respect, partnership, and eventually love. It felt like they actually got to know each other, rather than suddenly falling in love because the script said they should.
And thank God there was no unnecessary noble idiocy or endless misunderstanding between them.
They were surprisingly honest with each other, especially once their feelings became clear. When they had problems, they actually talked about them. When Ki-jun wanted to pursue her, he pursued her. When In-ah struggled with her feelings, the conflict came from her personality and circumstances rather than some ridiculous misunderstanding that could have been solved with one conversation.
I also really appreciated that the drama treated them like adults in a relationship. Their conversations about marriage, work, career ambitions, living together, and what it actually means to build a life with someone were some of the most refreshing parts of the romance. It wasn't simply "we like each other, therefore everything is perfect." Their careers and workplace hierarchy genuinely affected their relationship, and the drama actually allowed them to think about what being together would mean.
Shin Hye-sun was, unsurprisingly, fantastic.
Joo In-ah could easily have become an unpleasant character because she's strict, intimidating, perfectionistic, and extremely demanding. But Shin Hye-sun gives her so much personality that I never saw her as simply a "cold female boss." She has this incredible ability to communicate things through the smallest expressions. You can tell when she's irritated, amused, embarrassed, sarcastic, hurt, or secretly softening toward someone without her needing to say much at all.
I particularly loved watching her gradually reveal the softer side of In-ah. She's not a character who constantly cries or needs someone to save her. She's strong, proud, incredibly competent, and willing to stand her ground. But she also has vulnerabilities and flaws, and watching her slowly acknowledge those flaws was one of the more satisfying aspects of her character.
Ki-jun's personality could have been irritating if played differently, but Gong Myung gives him so much charm. He's expressive, frustrated, competitive, affectionate, and occasionally chaotic, and his reactions made so many scenes funnier than they probably would have been on paper.
Most importantly, he matched Shin Hye-sun really well. Their chemistry was one of the biggest reasons I kept watching. Their scenes had this effortless energy where even their arguments were entertaining. Once they started becoming a proper team, I loved them even more.
The entire Audit Team 3 also deserves credit. I wasn't expecting to become attached to the supporting team, but their camaraderie was one of the things that made the workplace setting work. They felt like an actual team rather than random side characters who existed only to react to the leads.
The comedy was another pleasant surprise. I genuinely laughed quite a lot, especially during the earlier episodes. The combination of workplace investigations, In-ah's intense personality, Ki-jun's reactions, and the team dynamics created some really entertaining situations. The drama had a nice balance of comedy and corporate intrigue without becoming completely ridiculous.
I also wasn't particularly invested in Kim Jae-wook's character and his secretary's storyline. Kim Jae-wook is an actor I really like, and he performed well, but the characters themselves never had the same impact on me as In-ah, Ki-jun, or the audit team. Compared with the main couple's dynamic, that storyline often felt like the weakest part of the drama.
Still, I appreciated that the drama didn't turn the second male lead into a completely disposable obstacle. There was some development there, even if I didn't personally connect with the character. The same can't quite be said for every supporting character, though, and I do think some of those arcs could have been handled better.
Overall, Filing for Love isn't a drama I'd call revolutionary, but it doesn't need to be. Sometimes a drama is simply enjoyable because the casting works, the leads have chemistry, the characters are fun to spend time with, and the story gives you enough interesting things to keep you hooked.
For me, that was exactly what happened here.
I loved Joo In-ah and Ki-jun's relationship, the role reversal, their chemistry, the audit team's camaraderie, the workplace investigations, and especially the business aspect of the story. I enjoyed watching the drama grow from individual audit cases into larger executive-level corporate politics while simultaneously bringing the characters' personal histories and present relationships into the conflict. That progression was surprisingly smooth and never felt like the writers were forcing a new storyline just to create more drama.
It was fun, refreshing, easy to binge, and surprisingly addictive.
Nothing groundbreaking, but honestly? I had a great time watching it, and sometimes that's exactly what I want from a drama.

Really good but
This drama is really good and enticing from the first episode. The mystery and intrigue and action are really well written however the romance and regular scenes where they're just fooling around or in-between major events felt too dragged out. This drama didn't need to be 40 episodes long and I think if they cut out alot of the drag it wouldn't have been so long and they wouldn't have had to rush the action scenes near and in the ending. The romance was a slow burn but very cute, not in any way feeling overly slow in their build up but the scenes felt dragged out. They give the FMC time to understand emotions and build some depth outside of assinations. I don't recall how the ML just decided to fall in love with her though, I might have missed it but it seemed abrupt. Like she's in danger again and now all of a sudden he's agreeing with her child request after saying how she's just wanting one out of a promise and doesn't understand what it takes to have children etc. I like that they didn't make the FML boy crazy to the point where she was no longer a badass and they didn't make the ML a wimp for her either, they addressed the gener power struggle early on in their relationship. Also the ending is confusing like they couldn't decide to commit to a tragic ending or happy one. I think that was a bit lazy on their part after such an amazing drama.Cet avis était-il utile?
2026's Best Couple.
What moved me most about this drama is the main couple. The catchphrases they keep repeating—one says "I'll slaughter pigs to provide for you," and the other says "Once a live-in son-in-law, always a live-in son-in-law." From episode one, you can see the coldness and guardedness in the male lead's eyes—the lingering authority of a once-dominant warlord. But somewhere along the way, he starts dropping by neighbors' homes in the snow to read letters for those who can't read. This kind of thoroughly warm-hearted thoughtfulness appearing on a decisive, battle-hardened general—it's because the villagers have always gossiped that the female lead is a "disaster star" who brings death to her parents. He's willing to build good neighborly relations just to improve her reputation. Details like this, so small yet so deliberate, really hit hard.
Then there's the female lead—during the male lead's postpartum recovery period, she takes over all the household chores while also earning money outside. That one plain, unadorned line—"I'll slaughter pigs to provide for you"—gives the male lead the greatest sense of security imaginable.
This drama's rewatch value is absolutely a perfect score. And it's precisely because of the separation and individual growth arc in the second half that makes the first 17 episodes feel all the more precious in hindsight.

This show is breathtaking. The characters are heartbreaking. The story is unique and meaningful.
This story is above most others. It is complex and the characters will fill you with every emotion while you get swept up in each and every one of them.Actors ... Perfection
Acting ... Beautiful
OST ... Remarkable
Chemistry ... Beyond words
Re-watch value ... Definitely
Choreography ... Stunning
Graphics ... Amazing
Each character, whether it is the leads, supporting or even side characters, has been written with such depth and meaning that they impact your soul. They pull you in to their joy and sorrow and make you feel their journey.
This is the second time I have watched this and I will watch it again ... when I need to see and feel such comradery, love and friendships to lift even the lowest of spirits.
Finishing this show will leave you with deep sorrow because the journey has finished. You endured the pain and tireless sacrifices that were made along the way and yet, you want to see more, feel more ... and re-watch repeatedly.

Very slow moving
Very slow moving.it feels like you’re watching two people fall in love very very slowly, and watching their day-to-day lives and a lot of the things that young people go through in a new relationship.
I honestly had a hard time watching this because it was so slow moving. there wasn’t a lot intellectually going on between the two leads in the writing. they’re both good looking and they have good chemistry. I really like the traditional Chinese medicine because I’m been into natural healing for a long time, and I think a lot of people can benefit from it.
we already know what to expect when it comes to our K dramas and sea dramas they’re not gonna kiss for a very long time and it’s gonna be even longer for them to be intimate. which just feels really unrealistic that people have so much self-Control. especially when they’re facing such a handsome man with such a good heart and good character.
it was a bit predictable. I already could tell somebody was gonna develop breast cancer, but I wasn’t sure who. I thought it was really really childish of the parents to not tell their daughter that she needed to go for this surgery. I did not like that. They kept it from her. They treat her like she’s a toddler when she’s a grown woman. she can handle it. They can’t handle it. Maybe she can handle it. and then to make her boyfriend to keep it from her, I was just diabolical. OK maybe not diabolical but it was wrong. and then when he doesn’t explain it to her the first time clearly that she was to ask him not to say anything and ask a doctor if he can’t legally say anything. but rather let her blame him for something he had no control over. once it went to the part where she needed surgery, they should have told her about it.
they were like oh you didn’t tell us about your breakup, and you handled that burden all on your own when it was a breakup, but then it comes to this other serious life event that’s life or death and they think it’s OK to hide from her. I also don’t get it when people don’t explain main characters like the grandpa what happens to his wife we never hear anything about what happened to his wife. It’s just he and grandpa.
I do think they kept the father son relationship issues pretty realistic because people don’t always talk things out and resolve things the way that they would like sometimes things just get push the deeper and let go up so they can move forward.
overall, I wouldn’t recommend watching it to like friends or family but if you’re a fan of the actors and of course you’re gonna wanna watch it I’m not a huge fan, but he is good looking enough to enjoy seeing his face lol
They are good actors and there is always something to learn about orher people or ourselves from any show we watch.

Bingeworthy! Entertaining and fun!
I loved this show from the very start. I watched it in just a couple days. It was so good and entertaining. the female lead is absolutely beautiful and I love how she does her makeup. the male lead is also very attractive. sometimes the female eat isn’t as a good looking as the man shows for some reason I don’t know, but she is so beautiful.I like how they were transmitigated into the novel. I also like the dialogue and she was not annoying in anyway she is very smart, loyal and loving.
I don’t wanna give away any spoilers. so I won’t. I highly recommend the show. I haven’t heard of it on any of my social media. and I don’t know why because it’s way better than some of the ones that are being promoted by fans.
there are a lot of interesting characters. The stories is pretty well developed not terribly difficult to follow along. I really liked it and I think you will too.
OK now I guess I’ll have to add some spoilers because I guess my review isn’t long enough without it cause it’s not letting me submit it yet even though I thought I wrote plenty
spoiler alert
it’s nice that his secret wasn’t a terrible secret. usually when someone thinks they’re protecting somebody from something they’re not and they’re actually harming them, but I think that in this case, knowing early on that he had been there for so long would really make her depressed and feel like she couldn’t get through it for that long like he did. also made me feel really bad for him that he had been alone for so long and such a terrible place and missing his family.
after it was done on the last episode. I felt like we could get a whole Nother show on what their life is like in modern times and how could they possibly process all the trauma they experienced in such a short amount of time too
trying to look at characters as 2-D to help them cope with dealing with having to kill people off was an interesting approach. I have seen a few where people are transmitigated into a story they usually don’t treat the other people in the story like their disposable, but I feel like it was a good coping mechanism. but she obviously didn’t feel that way about the characters in the story. She cared very much about all of them. but he had been there much longer and faced much more cruelty than she did.
these stories usually start out lighthearted, and then there’s the first time where the female leader will get emotional about something in the new world because something became very real. I always hate when they wait till the end to start making changes in the world, especially when they have a lot of power influence. but he didn’t have a lot of power in the beginning and had to fight his way to get that influence so when he finally did, that’s when they were able to make changes. that’s when they usually try to promote women roles in government, but they hardly ever actually show it implemented.
I’m also surprised when they never bring things from our world into that world. I think there is only two things that were brought there which was hot pot and a gun. lol but they could definitely get more creative I think and what they could bring to new worlds.

ThamePo Heart That Skips a Beat
0 personnes ont trouvé cette critique utile
I Came for the love story, I Left With Existential Questions
ThamePo is, WITHOUT DEBATE (I will not allow any), an absolutely incredible drama. It has everything, and honestly, even more than anything we could have expected. A genuine reflection on fame and the pop industry, insanely talented actors/singers/dancers, and then just WilliamEst casually playing with our breathing and heart rates every single time they appear on screen.Seriously, this BL managed to break me with a force that somehow also turned out to be capable of healing me.
This whole reflection on the T-pop industry, and more generally on the pop industry as a whole (especially in countries like Korea, where boy/girl groups are basically at the heart of everything) made me question my own relationship with fame as a fan.
And I came to a few conclusions. Thank you, ThamePo.
Generally, we tend to build an image of an idol or a group, and I think one of the mistakes fans often make is confusing that constructed, idealized image with the actual person behind it.
We love the image we have of them, and because we watch so many interviews and livestreams, we can mistake that feeling of proximity for actually knowing who these people are. And sometimes, that makes us feel entitled to be intrusive about a life we shouldn’t even have a say in.
Anyway
William portrays Thame with a disarming kind of accuracy. All it takes is one look at him to understand the entire duality of his character: someone who constantly prioritizes the well-being of everyone around him, with this endless energy that never really allows him to focus on his own feelings.
And when Po enters his life, of course a strong connection forms.
Because Po doesn’t just teach Thame how to identify his own feelings. He gives him all the love and attention that Thame himself has spent so much time giving to everyone else.
You know that quote:
“Look at yourself. Comforting others with the words you wish to hear.”
When Thame lets Po into his life, he finally allows himself to be comforted by the very words he had been carrying inside him. Po gives him the strength to reignite that spark that was slowly starting to fade away.
Also, Lykn’s performance is simply breathtaking. Musically speaking, the ThamePo OST is just one banger after another, and the dances are visually captivating. And no one here can deny the insane connection between the members.
You genuinely feel like you’re watching a group of friends: people who share laughter, challenges, difficult moments, and acts of solidarity.
The characters are incredibly well written. Every member of MARS has a personality that makes sense, and they constantly surprise us with how well they complement one another.
I’m going to be completely honest, but… NUT!! On top of being insanely handsome, I inexplicably loved his performance as Jun 😭
Obviously, I can’t finish this review without talking about the absolutely captivating chemistry between William and Est. I thank the Lord for blessing us with actors this talented because THEY KNOW BALL ABOUT YEARNING!!!
I could talk for hours about how Thame and Po’s relationship is not only healthy, but also so much more complex than it might seem at first.
Do you know what’s worse than watching a relationship slowly fade away? Having to end it because the consequences of staying together are bigger than you.
Not being able to live your love because other people have the final say over what you’re allowed to have.
And of course, it’s episode 11. It’s ALWAYS episode 11.
I was crying so hard my shoulders were literally moving.
Thank you, William and Est.
Thank you for the eye contact, for the shy little “huh?”, for the tears, for the laughter. Everything becomes an excuse to get way more emotionally involved than expected.
This couple somehow takes possession of your soul, breaks it into a thousand pieces, and then carefully puts it back together.
Thank you for the thorns, but most importantly, thank you for the rose.
OVERALL, I obviously recommend this BL 100000%. For the actors, for the artistic and musical performances, for this incredibly precious representation of love, and for the deeper reflection it encourages.
(HOWEVER. I am a veryyyyyy resentful person, and I WILL NOT FORGET what that awful CEO did. And I do not forgive.)
Anyway, I mainly recommend ThamePo because it somehow managed to raise my standards AGAIN.
And they were already ridiculously high.
“Even if the world doesn’t welcome us, or is falling apart right in front of us, I will stand with everyone and with you.”
Bare minimum. ( ˘ ^˘ )

Good potential
This drama has great potential but is not executed very effectively. In my opinion, the leads were good; the female lead, in particular, makes her characters feel very realistic and natural. The underlying concept is excellent, but it often falls into clichés or gets bogged down by an overload of plot dynamics. It could have made for a solid 16-episode drama...or avoid certain dynamics that are secondary to the main plot.A lighthearted drama that draws you in, yet leaves you with a bittersweet feeling about what might have been.

I feel good romcom/mystery/ghost story/corporate intrigue
A feel good mystery/ ghost story/ romcom/ cheabol corporate intrigue. I think that’s all the genres covered. I think if this had 16 episodes we would have seen more ghosts, But the current industry standard is 12 and you could feel it with the mystery storyline. I think they would’ve added more ghost stories otherwise .As a romcom, it was really well done and fleshed out. the corporate intrigue was not over blown or filler, but stayed on the plot points. while there was a good bit of accidents, they served the overall themes and we’re not plot advancements. I really enjoy these actors, a real standout crowd. I looked forward to every episode each week.Cet avis était-il utile?
