Andante of Love (2024)

If A and B unite, can we be...?

It's not as bad as the many negative comments. It's a light drama. What I like best about it is the harmonious relationship of the villagers who came from different backgrounds and grew up in different environments and a baby born in that village called Peace which in my opinion could either cause a scandal or be the hope for the future. I also like the conversation between the male lead and one of the supporting characters on the reasons people came to live in that village. CLOY was also referenced for the love story and it was reflected on 3 couples. When A and B are finally united, will you and I still have a chance?
I was able to finish all 8 but I don't understand why they started with a recall and a narration but didn't circle back before moving forward and ending it. The ending is just right but they could have done the whole story, the different people coming together to live in one community and the love stories, in a much better way because I think it will get more attention and will stay with the viewers' minds longer.

A people's hope

Somewhere out there… in a parallel universe… “Peace Village” exists and a similar story happened which eventually led to the unification of the Korean peninsula.

Grassroots made it happen. Ordinary people created new relationships that crossed the DMZ. They showed the politicians of both the North and the South that no political ideology can separate them any longer.

I hope the lesson from this parallel universe “leaks” into our reality, and hopefully, the Korean War will end once and for all in our time. It has gone far too long, and families who were separated by the DMZ are passing on one after another. Don't let the day come when no one can remember the pain of the separation; of an eons-old dream of having one Korean flag, united and happy together.

P.S. There are only 8 episodes officially, not 12. ^_~

A village that represents peace

I loved the concept of a peace village and a secluded community with South and North Koreans.. But this beautiful concept wasn’t executed well into a story. All the events happen in an underwhelming way. It was hard to pinpoint the moment when the main leads fall in love. Cuz things happen either too slowly or too quickly. But even with all the pitfalls there were some sweet moments that captured my attention and i wanted to finish the drama for the sake of the lead couple.
Even with the poor writing the lead couple had good chemistry. They did well and I find them adorable together. Definitely their love story could’ve used more intensity and depth because their relationship is complicated. Yet the new actors did a good job.
The drama’s intro is beautiful and nostalgic.

Quite consistent and not that bad, tbh

I did not find this show to be as bad as I thought it would be after reading some comments. I went in with zero expectations considering I have not been introduced to the cast here before and I liked the work by most, if not all of them. It's pretty straightforward and consistent story-telling. There are not many major loopholes that take away from the viewing experience. As a short-length show, I was also quite satisfied with the time skips as it gave a holistic look at their time spent at the village without overdoing it.

What I liked was how all of them had their individual identities and came together as a neighbourhood to support life and one another. It was nice comradeship, as they call it. I can't comment on the depiction of North and South as I'm not aware of the Northern dynamics, but nothing put me off as such. I also found the dialect being used by the supposed North people to be quite fascinating. It's an easy and simple watch, maybe even cute at times. Definitely hilarious in some instances - I really like Kim Ki Hyun in his role.

What I did not like was the ending. For it to be romance-forward, I expected a better reunion of the main cast. While I absolutely loved the ending for the other two couples (quite realistic and cute, especially for our Nam Kyeong-Ho), I'm disappointed in the main couple. It was such a dull goodbye and an even more dull reunion. I was looking forward to more emotions, even a kiss or two and something more happy. But well, it is what it is.

For someone who did not like the FL at all in the first 1 or 2 episodes, the show grew on me and I quite liked it. Recommended for people looking for something super easy and light to watch. :)

Love Andante

Come ho sempre detto è un drama moolto leggero ..all'inizio con una vena comica..per poi concludersi con un po di magone ...

Il drama è centrato su un'eventuale riunificazione del paese che come ben sappiamo è diviso in due ...forse questo è il desiderio nascosto di tutti i coreani ...poter riunirsi con le proprie famiglie ... qui è trattata in maniera molto leggera ma alla fine nell'ultimo episodio nel saluto finale della comunità sono riusciti a emozionarmi ...dopotutto hanno vissuto con le proprie diversità e tradizioni insieme per un anno intero ..da sottolineare nella più assoluta pace ..tagliati fuori dal mondo e dalle preoccupazioni quotidiane...forse li ho un po invidiati per questo...quindi come comunità erano tutti molto legati e gli addì fanno sempre male ....

Ci sono state cose assurde ....come il parto del bambino prematuro va bhe... i due protagonisti che sembravano due anziani di non so quale secolo...devo essere sincera il bacio più bello è stato tra il dottore e l'infermiera ?

Però se si va oltre ti lascia tanta dolcezza ...lo ricorderò come un drama dolcissimo ❤️

Simple and cute

I started watching this drama with zero expectations hence i was able to enjoy it , it slowly grows on you.
It’s a cuteeeeee romcom and that’s all there is to this drama. Nothing more. The story is quite plain and plot is simple. For a drama with North and South Korea relationship as backdrop, you may expect more to the plot but there is no tension or many ups and downs in the story. So if you want to watch a light short romance with no chaos and no villains then this drama is for you. Because the focus is only on the main couple. I watched 4 episodes in one go and i am lil sad that it’s only 8 episode drama.

The main lead couple have good chemistry. They have enemy to lovers relationship. I enjoyed their constant bickering. Their first encounter was hilarious. They slowly grow on you and you crave more of their moments together. The male lead is soooooo cutee…For once a celebrity character who actually behaves like a celebrity and not like a common person. Although there isn’t much to his role but i enjoyed his cute arrogant nature. FL is neither too sweet nor too harsh. She reminds me of Dan from crash landing on you. There aren’t many other notable characters so that’s that. But not a bad watch for a 8 episode drama.
