Minha Única Canção de Amor (2017)

SE NÃO TIVER NADA PARA VER...

Embora seja um romance de época, ele é extremamente cômico. Do tipo cessão da tarde. Teve um pequeno Plot na história, nada de tão significante. Os secundários são interessantes, mas nada tão significativos. Depois do romance engrenar (O que demorou um pouco) eu gostei do casal principal, mas não é como se eu acreditasse que eles ficaram juntos para sempre. Me apaixonei pela atriz principal, algo nela me cativou.

Assisti tempo depois a série "My Sky Boss" ao qual ela faz a personagem secundária, e gostei mais da personagem dela do que dos principais. Não dei muita risada nem me emocionei, no meio da história ficou arrastado, e não deu saudades no final.

It is my first time reviewing a kdrama, and this is worthy.

Story: Lots of clitches and sometimes plot holes, historical inconsistency etc, but hey what the heck, it is a web drama so you have to over look it if you really want to enjoy it, at least I did and it worked out for me.

Acting/Cast: Superb, they cast all 5 main leads and supporting cast perfectly, specially the main couple I heard they were in WGM top couples and definitely the director made a great choice casting people with great chemistry because everything looked so natural, skin ship, falling in love and kisses looked real. I have to point out the flower boy villain, this guy acting was superb over the top at times but that's what it made this show stand out for me.

Music: It was ok not memorable but ok.

Rewatch Value: I had cancelled my subscription to Netflix but I just renewed it so I could go back and for to watch what I missed.

If you guys have netflix please try to watch it there as much as you can, I have had problems with drama sites it takes forever.

Overall: A very well done, dorky, odd rom-com historical drama. Highly recommend it. It had a feeling like Go Princess Go (TDrama)

Putting Gong Seung Yeon and Lee Jong Hyun together again after their honey dripping time on WGM was a stroke of genius for FNC! These 2 have awesome chemistry and they are visual eye candy. Gong Seung Yeon plays a type of part she has never played before, of a vivacious, feisty, arrogant Korean drama star with anger management issues and an arrogant attitude. She pulls it off with grace and style and still manages to look pretty and cute.

Lee Jong Hyun also shows sides of his acting ability never before seen, from silent, tough Busan namja to goofy pabo, but then slips back into his Busan namja leading man image again when required.

Together, they are golden. Their dramatic scenes are great, but what surprises is how well the play the comedic, slapstick humorous parts so well. It it obvious they are totally comfortable with each other. And the kiss scenes (5) well, I needed to turn up the A/C to cool down after watching them. Full on, open lips smooching like I've seen in only a few other Korean rom/coms. It's obvious to me they brought their A game to this drama, but I believe it is because they bring the best out in each other.

The script wanders and has a tendency to get lost at times, and there is a lot of replaying of old scenes, but the goofy, quirky, off center, sometimes slightly raunchy humor surprised and delighted me. It is as if they are portraying a tongue-in-cheek parody of Korean period dramas and the actors who star in them.

All in all a light-hearted piece of time slip rom-com that will have you laughing out loud in parts, and crying in others. I really enjoyed it. I hope they produce a Season 2 showing Ondal adapting to Korea in modern times. i t would be a hoot!

I had hope that My Only Love Song would be a fun and lighthearted time travel drama to add to my beloved time travel list. Safe to say from the abysmally low rating I gave it that it did not live up to this expectation.

First, the acting. It was simply bad. Gong Seung Yeon in particular genuinely annoyed me with her performance. Was there really a need for this much yelling? She was not believable as a character or as a real person. Her acting felt forced and awkward at times. Lee Jonghyun also was simply awful in this drama. I feel like seeing his name on the cast list should have been a red flag for me for so many reasons, not the least of which was the fact that he was in my least favorite drama, and the only one rated lower than this one, Orange Marmalade. To put it nicely his character was dumb. He made stupid decisions, jumped to conclusions, and had no deeper thoughts throughout the entirety of the drama. (Just as an aside, I won't talk about his personal issues in this review because I know it might be upsetting to some and is, in the end, insignificant l to this drama's quality).

The plot had nothing of significance to offer. It was contrived, dumb, and foolish. A comedy that was wholly unfunny. The ending too made no sense when one considers the rules of time travel within the show and how the end was subsequently explained.

The show's budget also seemed to be nonexistent. The sets, costumes, hair, and makeup were all embarrassingly amateur-looking. I was shocked at how low quality the production was. This seems to be a common theme amongst webcomic adaptations but My Only Love Song was still glaringly bad even when held to a lower standard to account for webcomic adaptation budgets.

This drama was a waste of my time. Perhaps I should have been wearier of this drama given who the male lead is but as this drama had a relatively good rating I wanted to give it a fair shake despite my misgivings. I regret doing so.

I actually laughed during the first two, maybe even three episodes. Despite the clear dumbness and exaggeration, part of the comedy hit the mark. The protagonist's arrival to another time and initial interaction with the male lead were good.

But My Only Love Song runs out of that very quickly: after those episodes, the vulgar side of the comedy and particularly the absurdly frequent and long repetitions (sometimes a third of an episode's running time!) stuck out too much to continue. With the new characters' arrival (eps. 5-6) it no longer made even simple sense.
I would've dropped it there, but I didn't due to funny circumstances that lead to going over the first half and thus wanting to get it finished. At first that choice seemed good enough, because with the protagonists' relationship becoming clear the drama turned a bit entertaining again, and it was possible to see all the foolishness around them and the "villain" as something amusing instead of stupid.

Yet the improvement didn't last long this time either.
From there, the series switched to drama and wasn't better written any for it—quite the opposite. That it tried to cope with more serious events showed how weak the writing's quality is. The plot and the pace were always messy, but I was especially disappointed in the characters' writing turning extremely unsteady and incoherent. If in one scene a character clearly feels despicable and in the next one you kind of like him, and then he's treated by the plot as despicable again, this just shows great inconsistency.
With how little I've watched, there were little gestures I still thought were specific to certain characters from other dramas, and My Only Love Song pointed them out simply as K-drama clichés, so it was also the cause for some disenchantment.

There were things I liked at the beginning, and I was curious about how the story would fare out. At some point I also thought the characters were peculiar enough to follow, until they also progressed insufficiently. Both the initial ideas and their later execution showed more holes as the episodes went on. Even simple aspects like the music were mixed and applied chaotically, not to say with very little taste.
It also didn't help to find out about Lee Jong Hyun's misconduct mid-way, as that added even more conflict and unpleasantness to watching it.

Overall, with the exception of the initial and some middle episodes, it worsened progressively and, despite being hesitant along the way, I finished it feeling clearly that My Only Love Song wasn't worth picking up, and even less finishing.

Struggle to finish

I thought I would enjoy this but oh boy I was wrong, from the cheesy acting to the back play of the previous episode that takes almost 1/2 of the new episode at times, I feel like I could have spent these 10 hours on something waaaay more productive.

I will break it down for you, at first the plot seemed pretty interesting to begin with but I soon lost interest as the absurdity grew out of control. It made no sense at all who could drive the vehicle or what it even did. Sure it was funny at times but they kept emphasising the same joke over and over i'm sure even a 5 year old would of got tired of it.

I was not fond of the acting either, it was way to exaggerated and childish. I just could not like any of the characters, whether they were just ignorant and dense all the time or just annoying to watch. I became very bored of the main romance and even the supporting roles romances were a struggle to watch.

The music I cannot really comment on as I do not watch dramas for their music, nothing really struck out to me, but nothing irritated me either.

The rewatch value? Do not watch it in the first place. I could recommend you plenty other historical dramas that you should spend 10 hours on rather than this.

A short drama to watch, that is both funny and romantic, but there isn't much in the plot. The performances were okay, and probably that was the reason why this one didn't flop, as the story was odd and kind of idiotic at some point. But, at least, the drama was entertaining, it had it's funny moments and the romance was okay, as the couple had chemistry. The ending, in addition, as a bit of a wrap up and it wasn't as much of a conclusion to the story and that left out many unanswered questions. The constant flash backs, as well, were tiring and boring, making the episodes longer, sure, but not adding anything to the actual story. So, 4 out of 10.

I love love love this show.

I love the characters and the storyline.  I was rooting for On Dal and Song Soo Jung to be together.  I was so happy that they did.  I wish there was more because I did not understand how On Dal found his way to the present by just walking with a flashlight.  

I love the chemistry.  I love the lead actress.  She was soooooo funny.  Go II Yong was hilarious as a villain.  I was sad to see him die.  

Although I finished watching, I find myself going back to see some very important scenes over and over again.

First let me say, I love Rom-Com and historical parodies... For example: I absolutely adore My Sassy Girl (2017), as the story unfolds you can see the reasoning behind the leads crazy behavior, you also see her grow and mature as she develops a relationship with the lead male... The chemistry they have continues to build as each challenge causes to grow closer. I wish I could say I feel the same about My Only Love Song......I was hopeful with Netflix backing this drama but it lacks true substance, poorly constructed and terribly executed ...I couldn't connect with the lead actress Seung Yeon, no matter how much I wanted to feel for her. I love her in The Circle ..but not here. I don't think it is her fault as much as it could be the script writers or the directors, the chemistry of the actors.... When a drama is well done you can have compassion for the leads even when it's a ROM-COM-Historical parody, you find yourself wanting to see yourself along side them, fighting for them to finish well.
Unfortunately, after watching My Only Love Song I can only give it a 5 out 10 rating... There are so many better dramas to invest time in... this is not one I will be watching again.

Since I have not seen this mentioned....Side note for parents: This drama is rated for a Mature-14 audience , which is not surprising since most Kdramas are rated for ages 15 and up in Korea. Unlike most k-dramas I have watched in the past.... F@^k and other colorful words are a repeatedly part of the dialog... If you are watching this when younger children who can "read" and they are in the room with you just be aware.
