Lovely Runner

Perfect Summer Binge!

I started watching this just yesterday and have successfully binged all 9 episodes that have come out (with the 10th one on its way today (who cares about studies)). Throughout this, I was kicking my feet, giggling like a schoolgirl, so invested that I forgot that sleep is a biological need. Nevertheless, I thoroughly thoroughly enjoyed it. Warning: it will make you feel very lonely if you are single (because it happened to me too). Even though Hye Yoon looks like she is getting typecast after her role in Extraordinary You (but I know she is a very versatile actor), I still enjoyed her character in this! Woo Seok on the other hand I've not seen enough of since 20th Century Girl (brb crying) so it's always a pleasure to see him and hear him. My only concern is if he is a good actor, which will not be established until I see him in a few more roles. Right now, he is decent and will make you fall in love with him (but I attribute that more to the character and how well Woo Seok has portrayed it - the role really suits him (I haven't watched Strong Girl Nam Soon so don't come at me)). The drama is also a pleasure to watch because all of the cast is so good-looking! But seriously how are you scolding someone for not sleeping/having dark circles under their eyes when I can see that their skin is shining brighter than my future???? Enough nagging. They do discuss heavier themes which I always like but it's more a swoon-worthy drama than a slice of life. You will not regret watching it. Fingers crossed for a happy ending!!

Please give it a shot

I am SO surprised by the reviews about Lovely Runner on this website. I LOVED the show and I was obsessed a really long time by the storyline and the character. This story shows what unconditionnal love is and that's so nice to watch. I wasn't bored a second in the story and the romance is amazing to watch, the chemistery and the humor is on point : I laughed and I cried, A LOT.

The musics are amazing, even people who dislike the show said so, that you can trust, but it litterally broke my heart seing so many bad review, maybe that's juste taste because that show wasn't bad at all for me and is easily on my top 3 of kdrama. Even if I haven't watch a lot of them, I'm not an expert but I had a really really really great time watching this, it made me feel so great and I hope it'll work for you too.

Props to the actor for their amazing delivery of the story and for making my heart so happy while I was watching this.

A Whole Masterpiece in Creation

As expected, the writing in the show didn't disappoint. Each episode flows smoothly, balancing romance, comedy, and more. I love how the show embodies its creative vision. The writing and acting are excellent and definitely deserve awards. The hype is well-deserved. The creators and actors have done a remarkable job, bringing each character and story arc to life with great skill. Every scene transitions seamlessly, making it enjoyable to watch. This show truly stands out for its high quality and engaging content, and it’s clear that a lot of effort and talent went into its production.

Too Overhyped

There are a few long reviews by people that didn't like this drama, so I won't bother. But the FL is so annoying - her voice grates and the unsuccessful attempt to be cute just feels like wading in saccharine. I really can't stand another episode - I'm surprised I made it through 3.

There doesn't seem to be any real substance, although dropping after 3 episodes means that things might have gotten better. But when I'm watching K-Dramas, I want the characters to be interesting and have some depth. Would I invite them to a party at my house? Would I enjoy sitting next to them on a long plane ride? And the answer is no, not these characters.

aaaaaa

I enjoyed watching this in general but therw are some things I don't like :(. First off, does SunJae actually commit after seeing Sol for the first time in years or is it Kim YoungSoo once again? I mean he sees his lifelong crush after so long, plus she looks happy so why would he do that? also I really don't like how everyone else forgot :(( like sunjae, inhyuk and taesoong's friendship was so nice to watch. it really saddens me honestly. overall, it was a good watch, and im saying this as a person who doesn't really watch time travel and supernatural shows and dramas

First kdrama I've enjoyed since Dots [HONEST REVIEW] will continue after I finished the show:

Okay Lovely runner, the fuc is this title? And high school theme poster, it's so cliché..but why in the world it got me sobbing after 8mins?

-idk how to start a review but first of all those who's not happy about the character of kim hye yoon(im sol) should just dropped the show coz it annoys me how can they diss a character when we're are in her pov, we should understand her the most coz we know what's she's thinking and why she's doing everything . YET mfs instead use their pov to reason the logic of the show! Shut up do you have traumaS? Amnesia? Did your an idol save you too? and that idol dies? Yada yada.. okay enough rant.

-lovely runner established whats the premise of the show from the from the start and after ep. 3 they add another layer to that time travel/saving sun jae/ something to do with fate.. throughout the series, the writer would slowly slip us this idea of what's bound to happen would happen, it is annoying , frustrating and traumatic not just to the viewers but to our mc imsol too. Especially to imsol!

-tho I admit the concept of timetravel in this show is still a mystery and a plot hole itself.. the story about their love is just sooooo good, chemistry and acting..comedic timing is good too! There's still some cringe moment(some scene of geum) but overall the only thing that's concerning me is how would they wrap up everything in just two episode.

But even if it turns out bad or open ending, i would never forget LR for bringing me those butterflies again, I grow up watching kdramas, those who just have pure love, romance and cute stuffs, then when stop i got bored, tho i still enjoyed different genre but never be like someone who would be screaming and punching my pillow for just a smoch. This maybe my last kdrama idk but thank you lovely runner team! You guys deserve every praises❤️

one of the best drama you'll ever see

I cant wait for the upcoming episodes. This is so good and the actors have done such a great job. The story line is amazing. It keeps the viewers on the edge.
First of all the male lead is soo freakin HOT!!! so far we have seen him only as SML, being the main lead actually suits him more. There is no scene in this drama you ll feel like skipping. Every scene is full of emotions. The first few episodes are a emotional rollercoaster between sadness, love and comedy.
This drama has exceeded my expectations on every aspects. And the casting...... SIMPLY SUPERB!!!!!
