Watched this for the hype and I'm one of those FOMO as well so.🤷🏻😝 I notice this on most k-dramas in Netflix that they try to overcompensate by saturating it with English speakers especially or the inclusion of foreigners. It just comes off try-hard.
The same can be said of the academy award winning Parasite. Plotwise Squid Games offer nothing new. I was impressed by the rookie actress who played Sae Byeok. She was the most memorable out of this.
This started off promisingly for first 3-4 ep. and for some reason it just kind of veered off into a lot of dull moments after. They tried hard in getting viewers to empathize with these characters which came across heavy handed at times. It's an ok watch although the gore yikes.😬😑 The segment with the vips were annoying to say the least.
This feels very "Netflix-y" and it only has 8 ep. 👍🏼😎 I like how uniquely refreshing the plot is and the fl is a breath of fresh air. Leon look cute with his messy hair.🤣
Fl's too cute, she literally has deer-like eyes. Btw she & the sml are from Yang Mi's agency which has Dilraba. And Dilraba cross dressed as a man in "The Long Ballad", while the fl here also started off as a dude. LoL interesting coincidence.
The way the ml's fam tried to matchmake the 2 of 'em😝🤣
I am confused after episode 37. I understand that XM kept the land because its price will obviously be going up.…
Which is why I can't hate the guy🤣 He knows how to play the "game". You can clearly see how conflicted he is by the way he keep chatting to his smart home asst. Xiao Du. Who's HM btw may I ask? Did you mean Helen?
Easily the BEST C-Drama of the year. So glad I decided to continue watchin' despite dropping this initially. Am on 34 ep. & with just 6 ep. left I'm excited to see how it works out for Su Xiao. The constant attacks on Su Xiao's gender I tell ya never dies down as ep. go🤣😝 when it's the men who act like overgrown children🙄🙄🙄 I'm on the fence with Xia Ming & Pres. Zhou but there's no denying they're both very charismatic & look amazing in preppy looks. Very chic I might add. In particular the actor who plays the pres. Very sexy😉😏 Xia Ming is very cunning while Su Xiao's on the high ground. She's black & white, while he's very grey. It's interesting to see how these 2 play off of one another & the way they navigate the corporate world. Helen is such a whiny crybaby.😒 Is Mark the pres. asst. doin' anythin' aside from brooding & sayin' pick up lines with the ladies? 😂🤣 He's just eye candy😝 though I like how he's on Su Xiao's side.
Can you tell me what is the title of Mark's other office/business politics drama ?
"The Ordinary Glory" a Chinese Drama version of the original K-Drama, "Misaeng". If you enjoy those kinds of dramas, the currently airing "On the Verge of Insanity" is a very good one. I highly recommend it!
Watched this from ep. 06 - 11. Yup I skipped the first 5 as I dropped this initially.😝 It was boring but I decided to give it a go as I really enjoy most of Betty Sun's work.😁
She sure knows how to pick projects & constantly plays female protagonists that're layered, strong. She also is not your typical beauty as say Yang Mi, Angelababy, Dilireba etc. So that makes her characters relatable.
Mark's done a drama similar to a office/corporate environment before. I like his chemistry with Betty so far. Watchin' this mostly for them tbh.
Damn this dude moves fast like 5G speed yo.🤣 He not only managed to coerce the woman into living with him but by end of ep. 02 he got her crazy in lust over him as well. 🤣😝
I do appreciate she's got reservations; as she should. He rub me the wrong way though. He changed afterward although he's constantly pushing the woman's boundaries.
This is cute😁 I like how savage the fl is & she's pretty. The ml is the usual smart alec. He's not aloof, quite likable although he has a rebellious streak. Their bickering is fun to watch.😂
I'M DYING AT THE DISCLAIMER🤣🤣🤣 "This is the end of the storyline for Li Xiang & Peng Pai''!!! Were they receivin' death threats & hate mail is that it ahahahah!!!
Bistro run into ANOTHER SNAG are you kidding me LoL? Like what Shi Jun said the Bistro runs at a loss~
Shan2 is the fixer here. She's forever cleaning after everyone else's mess. So there's no loveline for her & that Mr. Hei?!
YaY it's official for Feng Xi/He Nan.🎊🎊🎊 Down to 6 ep. It's an alright watch. Mostly infuriating but not to the levels of "Young And Beautiful" and "Be Together"🙄 close enough though😒😜😂
Aiyo why the bistro keep gettin' suspended? Didn't He Nan know better not to mix knives? I mean surely a chef would've known to use separate knives for raw & cooked food(?)
So the whole Wei Lan debacle is solved. Si Meng saves her marriage. All thanks to Shan2. Now there's love blooming for Feng Xi/He Nan.
Bao Xue/Song Yang made up but I doubt he'd be able to stay quiet for long. People who're into extreme sports miss the adrenaline rush. Xue should just accept & trust he'd be alright. Otherwise they can't stay in the relationship for long.
Watched until ep. 16. All 4 women are a mess sans Shan Shan. Who I feel really sorry for LoL. She's like a maternal figure to 4 immature grown ladies.🙄😝
The homemaker's kids ugh such brats. Especially the son. I don't think their marriage will last. He just keep gettin' drunk at after work dinners.
Bao Xue I already knew there'd be trouble. But what did they both expect? When he told her why she had to make a scene I said aloud HELLo she's an actress LoL? Feng Xi is untrained & incompetent as manager at bistro. Luckily for her the chef keep cleaning up after her.
Xiao Yu is supposedly nearing 30 but frankly she look more into her 30s-40s🤣 also an underwhelming character. 😑
Will continue watchin' though still no C-drama on sisterhood has ever topped "Nothing But 30" that remains a gem.
FengXi should immediately dump her PhD BF upon hearing his future plans didn't include her in any of them. Why…
Not to worry he beat her to it he himself initiated the break up🤣 but of course at the same time making himself up to be "Boyfriend of the Year"🙄 A whole decade Feng Xi wasted on that @$$****🤬😤
The housewife played Sherlock & tried to recreate the stain LoL🤣 It's so obvious it's lipstick😒 at least **** hubs admit they'd divorce if he **** up again🤣 she should've put it in a audio file or something otherwise he'd go back on his word.
Still lovin' Shan2 the most. Don't care for rest. Don't think I'd want a bf like the interior designer ha-ha. He lives on edge & thrives on adrenaline. He's exhausting LoL. Probably get bored easily which is dangerous.
Don't feel sorry for that chauvinist Mr. Du at all. He deserves what's comin'. Maybe that office intern will open his eyes a bit. His wife shouldn't have shared her book deal profits. She might need that in case her marriage tanks.
I like the interior designer. Gee Bao Xue is so extra😂 maybe that's why she's an actress😜 Xiao Yu has 3 men pursuing her WoW.
I only like Shan2 tbh. I like the chef too heh😏🤣 Feng Xi is hopeless. Her bf is the absolute worse.

The only drama I've truly enjoyed her in was with Deng Lun "Because of Meeting You".
Will put this on hold for now.

The dialogue is witty while Yang2's character, Yu Tu seem to have a lot of inner struggles. Very different compared to his "Love 02O" character~
Reba's Jing2 is cute but has the determination. She is up for any challenge & has a naivete that's not off putting.
Looking forward to more. And WoW visual overload. ❤️😘

Can't believe he's older than fl by 3 years! It's funny he addresses her as "noona' here.😂 Will there be romance for these 2?

Such a waste of Bin2's talent. He has lil to no chemistry with Sun Yi here. She also seem to be playin' similar type roles?
Ugh I kept fast forwarding⏩which shows what a compelling watch this drama is!🙄
As much as I adore Bin2, I'm dropping this. Very disappointing. 😑
