Short, cute, bittersweet
She kinda reminded me of IU in dream high and but it left a bit of soft spot eventho she was 20 acting 12 ;p

I liked how it was cute fl x cute ml, calm fl x calm ml, tho it was a bit sad


it gives off twinkling watermelon and another cdrama vibes, tho i wished her she knew that was her mom so they had more fun times together
it was also sad, her first crush, would be like an uncle to her xD and it's sad when a rest happens they don't show the memories rushing back to the lead, so it's like coming back to another life, she became how she was cuz she didn't have a dad, but her life would be different

It’s a bit metaphorical, nobody knows. Even with through investigation, knowing both sides stories, you can’t do anything but speculate

I did find the movie slow and everything was revealed at the end without actually spelling it all out because no matter what, you’ll never know the whole truth

In this case, both parties were severely emotional, drunk, angry, suicidal, depressed they weren’t fit for driving
The dark road, the deer, everything was set up for the “accident” and that’s what an accident is, unplanned, any small element can cause it

The what ifs are as strong as the clues left by the encounters

The daughter blamed herself, the wife feared blaming herself, the mom was left with so many burdens taking care of a sick husband

Does the “truth” change anything? How does it effect the events

Yes they were unfit for driving, yes an unexpected deer was like a domino effect, move away from deer, move away from oncoming car, too angry to focus…. The daughter running away, the truth, the pain, no matter overthinking, over feeling, things need to be let go

the editing really lacked in classifications, the connections, and explanations, also the end end, half of it was recaps and the other half two waited until it was their turn then went on a goose chase, like..

i liked the teacher cast so i wished they explained more

like what was the connection of the game and the blood camp? did the teacher make it so kids got into debts? and make the admins/debted kids do her dirty work

like the archery game, the bullied girl didn't just hit back for revenge? it was to manipulate the games, so were the bullies in it, or was the bullied girl forced into revenging for money? same with the blackmailing teacher, and the guys the villain had where were they later

and the necklace was obv important, but they went around and around and only mentioned it at the end like an after thought..

Leia Mais

it took me 2 tries to finish cuz it was so long, tho the 1st half was too much talk and 2nd half too much action

for me, I was in it for BYH, I'm glad he's winning awards and praise for this, he wasn't portrayed as an evil villain demon, his character was a strategist, war is like a game and sport, there is a thrill in mind games, tho war is pure evil with ppl who don't want it are the ones fighting it and the ones who want it are safe in their castles..
so anyway, I teared up on the battle, it was balanced well in who had the upper hand and it was always heartbreaking when the tables turned. japan is wrong for attacking 1st, but did their soldiers have a say? sure even if 50% and even 90% were psychos, is death the only option for the ones forced to continue the flame of war

that being said, I do prefer historicals like this, doesn't have to be based on real events, breaking away from palace politics is nice. which just shows, in people on the same country/side also want war to gain what they want and they drag the rest with them,,

annnyyway, BYH and his adorable cheeks had more presence and charisma than almost all of the rest ;D

Beautiful acting, great production values, sure it has a thought but if one wants to go that far they can make extentions like sims and add upgrades ???‍♀️

Life is built on every single feeling, there was a cartoon fairy godparents? And there was an ep of only happiness in the world, this was like that. Is happiness everything?
It's like once you get too much of something you lose value of it

I did like ahjummonim tho, gives of badass queen vibe, I raised 0.5 for her, as a villain, crazy scientist, she did great❣ ahjussi dude is good too, with eonnie I only like her sometimes. Excuse me not knowing their names???‍♀️

Leia Mais

This wasn't professor's, rio, denver, miso and a bit of berlin's best acting performance
Tokyo tho and nairobi did have great charisma here, both I'd say is their best performance not that I've seen nairobi in anything else I remember

Anyway I'm giving this a 0.5 more than the last season. Tho I didn't like the angsty multi couples, or a bit of the message kinda reminded me of 36 task force? But the ending scene made it 100%???
This was more 15 rating than 18 tho there was 1 kiss scene but idk if there's an official source for that. Tho this drama is one of those +18 with a purpose rather than just being explicit and out of the box

This is what I ment when I said kdramas should koreanize adaptation. They didn't make it, a 1d romcom (much) but they did use their own circumstances and culture to retell that story. Idk if there'll be a 2nd season but I wouldn't mind it

I do feel bad about the ones who died being brushed off so fast, especially since Berlin and seoul came back alive and that was all that mattered

It was a bit sad for the sake of it. I'm not cruel, it's just the pacing was convenient and he was a 70 ish year old dude there were more than 1 chance to take him down
jason was added for the youthful eye and to give freddie a bit of a soft grandpa vibe which it helped but again they just happened to work at Fridays
I wanted a bit more depth, especially with both their families. I wanted a bigger team to atleast make their schemes believable
Anyway sungmin ahjussi deserves a daesang or 10.. and the writer certainly hit the jackpot with this cute little duo. Since the story lacked relativity, the 2 actors pulled it off well
I don't like sad for the sake of tears, like sure I was heartbroken but they dragged it a bit and the ending felt empty I wish they made a bigger movement

A small pebble that turned into a massive avalanche.

The story was predictable and took way too long to start the revelation. I actually hate stories that could've been solved/stopped but maybe that person wanted the avalanche to happen
The ml was stupid tho, I mean they all were

His pov never made sense cuz, he's the guy? making his mistress drive, telling her he wants to quit, and she says lets cover it up?

And lawyer saying she met the dad, but he never sused there's more to it? Especially after the guy said she's a reporter not a hotel reception ?
I also hate the "turns out to not be dead but couldn't go back"?
The mood got me, 5, 4, 6, 9, 3, and a 9ish? atleast I'm glad it didn't turn ugly with mass murders at the end, I actually think the villains worse punishment is getting caught

Honestly the epilogue was more interesting than the same old cold traumatic lone wolf vs the world bit

So imagine why her (minus annoying kid and death/ie corporate struggles), meets search www (minus great sismance/ ie business setup) meets black dog (mainly in struggles and instability, and supporters)
A realistic office drama. No ridiculous bullying, not much hustle and angst, but promises nice tension ?
Great female lead, lacking side characters and missed opportunities on www like sismance
And hopefully the mature hints of subtle romance is here to stay cuz we really deserve a normal romance between two equals tho the casting shows that one isn't here to stay, hopefully 2nd ml is
And good final ost
but it didn't meet it's full potential

They hit the jackpot with lee boyoung, hopefully eventho it's so male centered, eventho it is their plot line of "using her as a female face of the group to get what they want", I hope she can shake their world, and maybe do not make it a women vs women and give us budding friendships and they delivered a bit
Eventho the other 2 fls are og foot actress and a mong actress
Also, I hoped the relationship with her obvs sizzling friend was more than just a guest role crush and he turns into a lover without him needing to be the main lead

ahin isn't evil, tho she's playing them before they play her, she still has other women's interests at heart
Lol giving her the same exact backstory as mother ? mom was like stop watching sad traumas?
This went from a 10 to an 8?
Ml and 2ml, plus practically every guy beside her 3 "friends" are all so petty and childish

Leia Mais

I was a bit disappointed by the tears, I wasn't interested in the 2ndery couple eventho I liked them as the leads' friends
Fl is more independent, confident and quirky rather than strong, with extra emphasis on quirky with a dash of crazy
I didn't like her start and didn't enjoy him repeating how different she was from other women.
Both were prejudice but she was like "hm I was wrong about men they're not all bad" and he goes "I've never met anyone like you, you are not like other women" which shows who was more prejudice

But I appreciated their romance and relationship. The way it started without anymore misunderstandings and continued smoothly until the half of last ep ruined it, their effortless love, confession and skinship was also a nice dose of healthy relationship as apposed to the usual kdramas
Things were fast cuz the short ep count but still they had 2 fake/real breakups and over reactions

I didn't like how they made her cry, as if crying makes her not too overboard not feminine
I wanted her to coolly charmingly claim him back I didn't enjoy his sulking as "soft revenge "

Leia Mais

It was fine, basic, but suddenly near the 1 hour 20min it's getting incredibly dumb?
I mean the writing and dialog is so rigid, like puppets just there to say their lines, and fl, her friend and our psycho all act like dimwitted 20 year olds but as a process of "stealing infos" it is something we're actively advised to take it consideration so it could've been interesting but...

I mean it was stupid when the cop was shown to be ml's dad who suses him right away...
And like sure fl's dad has to tell her new guy is sus but dude is like og tobby Spiderman 2 when he got the black powers and started dancing but girls thought he looked weird, oily cheesy
That's how siwan was being. Over confident in a tiny geek is sus af

But at the 1h22m mark, they stop him b4 he goes into fls house. Rookie cop mistake. But he goes, I'm not him you guys are sus and walks away? A suspect of 7 murders? Walks away with a "nope you're wrong"?

Leia Mais

Got me out of my slump. Sweet friendships, and enjoyable slice of life ?

ep 7. I like how the fls aren't doormats and even equals to the mls
Mls have their fantasies and idealistic ideas but so do those fls. Both don't want to be used but both also a bit lack in understanding and accepting the other
So one doesn't commit the other feels robbed. And walking away is a wakeup call but sometimes it can also be too late to fix it

ep 5. My dude better not betray me. I honestly appreciate all characters. Even the double love triangles are opposite of each other so it adds good depth

ep4. This was a good ep. The women like I said before even in a male centered pov are still diverse and hold their own ground. Sure like love to hate you the ml here also judges women by their yooho(?) Type, it's not your fault, godzila girl, but the mls themselves aren't any better
Which goes back to a bit of realism, he's an idiot but he's making an effort

ep 3. I'm against long term one sided crush but I need to keep remind myself of the 1st ep and the elevator scene
The sister is a bit weird, she's been so cool and "one of the guys" but she has an extreme clingy side to her
Like I'm disappointed it was a hallucination from 3 years ago. Her wording of you kissed me and said let's get married.. I hoped it was 2 days ago..
Tho taro is an idiot and blind so he does need an extreme to push him out of his comfort zone
Like his ex and her soft "turn the coaster if you're not expressing your real emotions" was so mellow she left and he was too idiot to speak up
But I loved her part of the guys chill persona more. It'd have been a nice change to have a chill fl who's still deeply in tune with her feelings
Yo what is this and why has no one force me to watch this? I LOVE IT. if there's something jdramas do well it's slice of life ish stuff
This is so real, over dramatic and silly but so daily life of people, chill and fun

ep1. I adore Takahashi and this is the type of characters I want from him sexy mature idot?
Also men are stupid, I'm glad eventho this is from 3 single guy's pov, the women are still smart. Tho my boo is going for the worst type of women thinking only about her being his ideal 1st love
I'm glad my 1st sight ship with the 2ml sister doesn't seem too delulu??
