Doce e Amargo (2021)

A confusing, blood boiling movie.

Before I start, warning there will be some spoilers here and there so if you are planning on watching this movie and want to be surprised don't read this.

Let me start off with the good things I liked about this movie. I loved the realistic aspect of marriage that was in this movie. Watching it I was very impressed by how they made this movie a great portrayal of modern day couple. I also loved the acting because I never wanted to punch a character more than I wanted to punch Jang‑hyuk in this movie, god damn he made my blood boil.Which leads me to the bad things of this movie.


First of all, Jang‑hyuk you never thought to think once to tell people at your work or just Han Bo‑yeong that you are married. Y'all were flirting and dropping hints back and forth, but not only to put a red line but to just let her know that you are married even if she was fine with it, you still had to tell her. Second of all Jang‑hyuk is such a horrible husband, he never once asked her how she was doing or if everything was good with her.He came back from work and complained about how she asks him to take out the trash, Well no shit your married, both partners need to work together in order to have a healthy relationship.

The ending, I didn't think it was that bad honestly I was pretty satisfied with it. I loved how he realized that he made a big mistake leaving her, and went back for her, but karma was doing its job he had it coming. And I'm not taking her side, neither of them did the right thing but I think it happened for the best like if they continued their relationship I don't think they would be that happy or satisfied, They were cute when they dated but I think the ending was for the best for both of them. Hope this helped.

Hoy toca hablar sobre una película romántica. La verdad es que no me suelen gustar las películas románticas coreanas, al contrario que con los dramas y esta se me hizo bastante pesada.
La relación entre los protagonistas no me gustó y no sentí la química al igual que la relación entre los compañeros de trabajo que se me hizo bastante forzado.
No es una película que haya visto recientemente pero no recuerdo ningún momentos destacable que mereciera la pena. Y, si no recuerdo mal, tenía como algunos saltos en el tiempo que me hicieron salirme de la trama varias veces.
Sin embargo, si tus gustos en películas coreanas van más hacia el romance, quizás deberías de darle una oportunidad. Que no me haya gustado no significa que sea una mala película, solamente que no era para mi.

El mejor plotwist que he visto en mucho tiempo

Por fin la vi! Estuve esquivando esta película desde que salió porque amo a Jang Kiyong y a Chae Soobin, entonces cuando empecé a ver malas críticas tuve miedo, no quería decepcionarme. Sin embargo me animé y terminé llevándome una grata sorpresa porque ¡Me encantó! Que complicado es entender los gustos de la gente pero en fin...

Es una película muy inteligente, de esas que una vez la acabas piensas: "la respuesta estuvo frente a los ojos todo este tiempo". Y es por esto que si la vas a ver te recomiendo (más bien, te suplico) que no busques nada porque un spoiler podría arruinarte la experiencia totalmente.

Me encantó ver a Soobin y Kiyong (ojalá protagonizaran un drama juntos) ambos son actores excelentes.

No sé que más agregar, sólo que me hubiese gustado un ost diferente.

you either like it or hate it.

I feel like this is one of those movies that you'll either really like or be left thinking "wtf did I just waste my time on?" I technically fall into the second category lol. I feel like the movie was trying to do one thing and then just had a personality switch towards the end (the last 10 mins that everybody is talking about) and from a storytelling perspective -- like I know what they were trying to do and I would have actually loved it if the transition was a little bit more seamless. But like I said you spent the entire movie in kind of this slow paced, somber mood and then bam! total reveal and I'm like WHY COULDN'T WE SEE THE QUIRKY HUMOR THE WHOLE MOVIE? I mean I guess they really wanted you to believe it was something it wasn't to increase the shock factor, it just fell flat on it's face for me. Which sucked because I was actually somewhat invested in the story line which I didn't expect to be.

A rom com but make it realistic

I’d say that this movie was cute at least for me with a quite satisfying ending and a realistic story and great acting.
If you are looking for your perfect romance movie with the excepted typical happy ever after ending this movie won’t be your cup of tea, however I’d still recommend it to you.
The story as I said is not your perfect cliché which is good for me, for me I found the female lead sooo cute I think she is the main reason that I liked the movie, I think I also learned some things from this movie about choices in life, I’d say it’s a well written story since it’s enjoyable and has meaning in it and also it has a plot twist that makes the whole movie much better which is a creative move from the writer.
Acting was excellent and I’d like to praise Chae soo bin since she is some kind of underrated,this girl has potential she is literally of of the few actresses out there that acts so naturally as if she wasn’t acting even her crying is amazing I wish that she’d be more appreciated, of course Jang ki young was amazing too I always liked his acting and krystal also was great she portrayed her character perfectly, the whole cast in general was great.
Would I watch again?
Yes, I think since the story some kind of changed towards the end it’d be fun to rewatch it while you know the idea of it

Overall it was a great movie not that kind of very interesting movie which will keep at the edge of your seat every second but a cute movie that portrayed real life with an enjoyable story

my opinion

i think many people know the plot of this movie, so i just want to share my opinion:
this movie really show the reality of couple nowadays especially the young one. because when someone will start have other commitment they can't balance between work and love. it just kinda confusing because both da eun and jang hyuk make mistake.
i think da eun start to cheat on jang hyuk after she abort the baby. i dont know if in korea, aborting is normal or not. i kinda pity at the other jang hyeok because he really love da eun but i dont think da eun really move on on jang hyuk( jang ki yong).

This show will SUPRISE you! (safe review)

It was most interesting that movie was overall suprising in the end, from beginning it’s almost like it gave you a chance to connect things to certain parts. If your going to watch this expect the unexpected! i was shocked when i found out in the ending what was really REALLY happening. The only thing to pay attention to if your gonna watch this is to look closely about the characters and actors in this Drama not only that I really love the scenery and time it took to make this film very outstanding Cast and acting and Very great story, please consider enjoying this.

The first act is literaly my fantasy, meet a pretty nurse, get closer with her, then become a lover; after that, when the main characters enters the Long Distance Relationship (LDR) , I gotta say it was like a nightmare, I don't wanna experience that.

Everything start sweet but LDR usually turns a relationship sour, especially if the two person got a job, hard to communicate, rarely seeing each other, so it's not strange if there's a change in feelings.

This film is pretty good on describing this kind of relationship, we get to see Jang Hyeok and Daeun from a sweet couple to the verge of collapse because of LDR.

It's really hard to see our couple shattered here, but what happened in the end, that happens for good.

The message this film trying to deliver from my understanding is love between 2 people requires trust, mutual understanding and appreciation, especially if you in LDR.

There a twist in the end, I didn't see it coming but I gotta say it make sense, Daeun was hurt and she deserve a good ending, she gets a man who can appreciate her more. It's not spoiler I guess. Just watch it, you'll get it.

had a plot twist but also... meh

From the trailer alone i could understood the whole plot twist. i hate trailers so much... but with that being said... i dont feel good about the ending. it lacked meaning.

i think the FL (nurse) is not really happy with her new boyfriend, and the ML is not at all that sorry he lost her either. Both of them just needed someone. Anyone. Anyone that had time for them.
Didn't matter who. The nurse repeated everything she did with the ML with her new bf just to end up miserable. Same habits, same gifts, same way of falling in love at the hospital... that's a massive red flag if you ask me. And seriously sad. Assuming they were on a break for awhile, then both of them slept around during that time, but the movie kinda makes it seem as if the male lead has more to blame than the female lead, when they equaly had other partners in between.

the plot would make a lot more sense if at least one of them had a true happy ending with a "i am over you" moment. the way the FL was not that happy in the moment of the plane departure, and how desperate the ML was to just be with any of the girls tells me not a single person had a good ending.

and that's life!! but also... what's the message of the movie then? that life is hard when work gets in the way? well yeah. we all know that. what's the real message here? Am i supposed to side or relate to whom?
