GAME-CHANGING BL OF IT'S TIME.
If you are a BL lover, this series has a unique story, great drama, excellent cinematography, endearing slow-burn romance, and superb acting.Highly recommend this show if you are looking for the following:
• Unusual story and setting of a BL.
• An introspective drama of a man that has an emotional life-changing journey of self-discovery and forgiveness.
• Excellent acting of the cast (and children).
• Amazing chemistry of the main leads.
• A story and struggle of a rural village community.
• Outstanding world-building that takes place in a rural village.
• Realistic portrayal of an inexperienced volunteer teacher in a remote area.
• Showcases gorgeous scenery and portraying different cultures.
• Right amount of comedy that doesn't overpower the overall feels of the show.
• Simple but beautiful OST.
I have to commend Mix Sahaphap's for doing an outstanding job in his debut role as Tian. Portraying a complex character is not easy for a seasoned actor, let alone to a newbie. I would also say that this is one of Earth Pirapat's best works. His performance as a stern and authoritative figure really fits him, but at the same time you can see his kindness and compassion towards other people.

Cute,better than expected
I love myself a good bl series and came across this and binged watched it in like 2-3 hours was surprisingly really good and interesting storyline however the only thing I would of loved more of was there relationship growth and more episodes to highlight it as some bits felt a bit rushed towards the ends but characters/actors had good chemistry from what I saw would recommend to anyone looking for a quick Bl series to watch would rewatch it in the future in my opinion would rate it a solid 7/10 which is quite high rating which indicates it’s worthwhile watching xWas this review helpful to you?
An intriguing sageuk with mystery and palace machinations
The synopsis for this drama is quite inaccurate. After watching the show, I was laughing at their description of Min Jae Yi as "a gentle and poised daughter." In truth, she was a tomboy who dressed in boy's clothing from an early age and charged kids toll for crossing a river she supposedly owned. She also frequently hopped walls with her trusty maid/sidekick to escape her house and often got into trouble.After being accused of murdering her family, Min Jae Yi didn't randomly run into Crown Prince Yi Hwan; she specifically sought him out, hoping to get his help in clearing her name, while also intent on protecting him, as her Father had begged her to [his last words to her].
TLDR: Historical, Mystery, Romance, Drama
Historical - Joseon period
Mystery - Secret curse letters delivered to Crown Prince; one by one are coming true.
Romance - if you're looking for skinship and insta-love, this is not the drama for you. The romance is about trust and deep abiding love that takes time to develop.
Drama - I laughed, I cried and my heart was touched.
I enjoyed the mystery aspect of this drama as I had a chance to keep guessing and the revelations came in bits and pieces. I delighted in the rapport between the main leads whose bickering kept me entertained. But they also worked well together when they were investigating crimes, and they eventually were each other's confidants. As always, Park Hyung Sik did a fantastic job as Crown Prince Yi Hwan; he really showed a range of emotions in this role and was so forward thinking in saying that Jae Yi was a woman, not an object. Jae Yi is probably one of the most feminist characters I have encountered. Her true self is the tomboy that jumped over walls, exhorting coins from strangers to help the poor; in the meantime, Society dictated that she had to grow up, get married and place duty above all.
Lee Tae Sun as Kim Myung Jin (coroner, investigator, scientist, general people-helper) stole the show with his lack of self-awareness. Jang Ga Ram (Min Jae Yi's maid) was perfect as Myung Jin's student. They made me smile and laugh so much. The other leads and supporting actors did a fabulous job, resulting in the well-produced drama. Even though I meant to watch this while it was currently airing, I'm now really glad I was able to binge watch in 4 days. My patience would have been sorely tested if I had to wait so long in between episodes.

Does anybody know this Song???
Is there somebody who knows the sad Song in the Backround?Its instrumental /piano I guess.
the First time, its on the Scene: when the Killer is hearing his music, walk through a Park and remember a girl which walking by. The second Time is, when the ?Shaman? lay in Hospital (Warning! Spoiler> and died).
its such a beautiful Song but I cant find them. It is NOT a Part of the official OST. (Ive heard every Song which Youtube found from Suspicious Partner it isnt there!)
Shazam could not find it.
Its similar to Songs from Thomas Newman ("Road to Perdition" or something like that)
Im very desperate.

Effortlessly sizzling chemistry and class apart acting makes this drama very enjoyable!
So this is another rom-com which might give a sense of familiarity with other such dramas about office romance, domineering CEO etc. Many say storyline and plot are not that good. I too agree with the latter. It is a very normal day-to-day kind of story line...and probably that is why it is also so relatable.I came to see this after completing TTEOTM and am so glad that I did. The acting is just at a completely another level. I have not seen such easy chemistry between lead actors since a long time. I mean LYX...why has this awesome and mind-blowing talent remained hidden...it is absolutely baffling because his acting skills are at a very high level, even beyond that of many top Chinese actors! I have not seen such micro-expressions and the directors taking so many close-up shots of an actor. It shows that the directors too trust LYX's acting abilities. And there is Bai Lu - perfect combo for LYX! She is too good, has such an easy chemistry with Luo and gives lovely expressions at times. Both are just beyond brilliant together!
The other parts of second couple, the second lead are okay. Love is Sweet completely belongs to LYX and Bai Lu. Even their kisses are so real, no awkwardness, very professional, and to die for.
The latter part of the drama drags a bit and does not have a lot to offer in terms of storyline, but the lead actors do not disappoint.
If you are fans of the lead actors, you will not be disappointed at all. Complete mood lifter this one!

A beautiful story about a woman’s growth journey of love and life
This drama tells the story of a villainous type female lead who, due to her love obsession, ends up causing the death of her family. Before her seemingly final breath of life, she loses consciousness, only to suddenly wake up two years prior to all events that had happened. Convinced she is living a second life, she decides to do everything in her power to fix her mistakes and change her family’s fate.The drama is not a love story but about the female lead’s growth journey as she learns valuable lessons about life and love. A strong message about unconditional love is shown in this drama as well as how every person could be good or bad, depending on the perspective. There are three love interests. No kiss scenes however the intense, fire chemistry between the main leads makes up for it.
POSITIVE:
- All characters are morally grey. No one is perfect, everyone makes mistakes and learns their lessons.
- Well written perspective for each character. At every moment the viewer clearly understands everyone’s motives (good or bad) which makes the drama very human and realistic.
- No predictable, draggy parts or cliche plot lines.
- No love triangles. Even though there are three love interests there is no typical love rivery and cliche jealousy shown.
- Conflicts are resolved quickly. Mystery aspects are done well and the audience learns everything alongside the female lead.
- All characters are well-developed and fleshed out, nobody does stupid things without a reason.
- Fantastic execution of seeing the flashbacks of the female lead’s first life that are parallel to the second life. We clearly get to see how she is acting differently and changing things in the second life.
- Beautiful message about unconditional love at the end of the drama.
NEGATIVE:
- I would have loved it if there were more romantic scenes between the male and female lead.
- Second male lead (who is the husband) does get quite a lot of screen time at the start compared to the male lead which can annoy some people.
LOVE INTERESTS:
- Male lead - a Lord, who secretly loves the female lead.
- Second male lead - female lead’s husband and the man she is obsessed with at the start of the drama.
- Third male lead - an orphan who the female lead helps and later becomes her loyal guard.
OVERALL:
If you are looking for a mature, slow paced, historical drama about a woman’s growth journey related to love, with morally grey characters (no one is just good or bad) and beautiful messages about all types of love (unconditional love, selfless love and self-love), this drama is for you.

Not happy with the ending
Don't go for the poster of the serial ,it may give you hope . Yes, very less chemistry between the leads . I ship the love stories. I didn't find any love between the leads , actually unrequited love was seen . And even story was not match with synopsis. What i saw in the drama that a girl killed and pray to god to give her chance to do amendments , she thought she went to the past and changed her past but unfortunately she went in coma for 2 years . Rest i will not tell . I don't want to be spoilers and the drama end . Yes, she woke up called the male lead name and the drama was over . It was different story . But they should show some chemistry between lead beside she liked some other character in the drama only this the reasons i don't like the drama. I hope for season 2.Was this review helpful to you?
THE BEST DRAMA IN CHINESE DRAMALAND
THIS IS THE BEST DRAMA I EVER WATCH. PLEASE GO WATCH IT!This drama has the best castings, ost and plot. Everything about this drama is so gooood. I rewatch 3 times and cry like a baby everytimes. And censorship who??? they obviously can't censor the way the characters look at each other. WY and LZ look at each other with so much love that I can't comprehend how is the actings so good. You know how you watch a drama and you know the actors are acting right? BUT for The Untamed, XZ and WYB bring these characters to life. I never once view all these as ACTING. Watching The Untamed make me realize you don't need romantic scene or anything to be a good drama (I'm usually a romance drama watcher).

I NEED EXTRA EPS AND SS2 SO BADLY!!!
I am very happy I found this drama. The story and plot was good especially the start and ending of the drama. I love our main actor and actress so much they did an amazing job playing the character. Others love the guard tgt with HQ, but I was team ZXW since the beginning and somehow the way they look at each other is just omg they have so much chemistry together. I just wish there is more eps or ss 2 to this drama because somehow ZXW doesn't have much screentime and I wish to see HQ and ZXW interaction after HQ woke up. AND they mentioned how ZXW has a mistress waiting for him to return for 2 years because he was busying taking care of HQ. I can tell how much ZXW loves HQ BEFORE & AFTER EVERYTHING without her knowing his feeling likeeeeeeee I need more of them.Pardon me, I am never the type of leave review but I just sign up to do it because I love SoT so much! IF anyone know where we can sign a partition for more eps or ss2 please let me know I would like to contribute!

Dangerous romance or boring romance?
GMMTV never ceases to amaze me how they can turn a promising story into the most mediocre one. GMMTV has a real talent for creating fantastic teasers for its series, and Dangerous Romance is no different. Once again, I was fooled and decided to watch this presumably action-packed story of dangerous love . Well, as we all already know the final product turned out to be something completely different. What is this series actually about? Good question :) In a way, I felt like I was watching an anthology of three different stories: 1) the transformation of a bully into a good boy through love (ep 1-3) 2) My lovely tutor (ep 3-9) and finally 3) where did this gangster story come from? (10-11). I started having a serious crisis as early as episode 6, as did Khan, who started acting as if he had a split personality. The poor guy couldn't decide who he actually loves - he loves Pimfah, but flirts with Sailom, even though he supposedly feels nothing for him, and then suddenly he's jealous of him? WTF? Then with each episode there was only more of this shit and then I realized that to be able to finish this series you have to turn off your brain and stop analyzing it. I won't even mention that this series is a conglomeration of the most common bl tropes that exist: sponge bath? check. Accidental fall? check. Staring at each other for 30 seconds without saying a word? Check. Love triangle? check. Trip to the beach? check. It's like a recurring nightmare from watching 'Hidden Agenda' but with better actors. I regret watching this series.Was this review helpful to you?
Watchable, but there are better short-length modern mini dramas
One of the nice things about mini dramas is they're short enough that you don't have to feel too bad for wanting to finish them even when they're a little cringy.My Lovely Wife is a fluffy and campy "dog's blood" drama, which can be it's own guilty pleasure, but here, suffers from mediocre to poor acting, and some cheesy dialogue (the translation is better, lol). There is little chemistry between the leads and unfortunately the ML does not have the presence to carry off leading man status.
One of its biggest flaw, however, is the way the drama minimizes attempted sexual assault against the FL. She is attacked multiple times by a side villain and once by the ML (who was unknowingly under the influence of a drug). At a minimum, the ML should have apologized and asked if she was okay once he was himself again, but it is never addressed or shown (even a mini drama can spare two minutes for this). Even if the FL is understanding of the circumstances, it does not lessen what must be a very traumatic experience. This is by no means unique to My Lovely Wife -- C-dramas do this far too often. I can even pretend the FL somehow bounces back immediately after being kidnapped multiple times, but this is one topic that should be treated with much more care and sensitivity.
Overall, My Lovely Wife is weirdly watchable for those who enjoy a good campy melodrama, despite the cringe-factor. If you're like me, most short-lengths over 6.5 are watchable enough for a "quick drama fix" especially when you are short on time and looking for low-commitment TV. But if you do want additional -- or better -- alternatives set in the modern day, (in no particular order) Destined to Meet You, Ready for Love, Forever Love, Secretary Bai Wants to Resign Everyday, Night of Love With You, Love at Second Sight, Better A Lie Than A Truth, are all superior mini dramas compared to this one.

Such a beautiful drama. (No direct spoilers but some things are implied)
Probably one of the most emotional dramas that I've watched, binge watched the entire thing... Such a beautifully sad story, it was so well written. My heart quite literally hurt watching this drama, cried a thousand rivers frfr. The acting was one of the best in the K-drama scene, which I expected from Dohyun cause he's such a great actor, didn't get to watch anything from Go Minsi but she was also a great actress. They had great chemistry, and their good acting made me feel everything they felt cause they just expressed it so well. All the characters played so well. Okay not gonna lie though, I did kinda drop the drama when I reached about 4 episodes, so it was a tiny bit boring for me at the beginning (Maybe just for me though), but I decided to complete and DAMNNNN.I remember when I was secretly watching this in class my friend tried to warn me, she told me it was going to be SAAAD but I brushed it off and said it couldn't be that bad. But BRO T-T . Oh how wrong I was.
I would definitely recommend this but you will cry, I don't care how tough you think, you are you will cry. Even if you're not an emotional person this drama will turn you into one.
