An incredibly heartwarming slice of life drama that takes place against the final champaionship game the Heart People’s baseball club. Each short episode follows a different team member; showing their struggles and how baseball and this team have not only become a haven for them, but how it has helped them grow as people. Baseball is a game that’s the most like life, says one of the players in a reflective moment, as events in their game parallel personal struggles. It’s such a lovely little introspective drama, and though it’s a only ten 15 minute episodes, there is an unexpected depth to this drama. The character growth and relationship building feels so thorough for such a short run time. Hats off m to the writers and the actors because they’ve really created a beautiful, poignant little drama in My Baseball.
Just finished this, and I loved it a lot. Such a great, wholesome drama. It gave me Persuasion vibes, and ex’s finding their way back to each other (while growing and finding themselves in the process) is one of my favorite romantic tropes. Anyway, this drama ticked a lot of boxes for me. Highly recommend.
I am late to this party, but finally finished both parts, and WOW. I have not loved a drama so much in such a long time. It was thoroughly entertaining, and I loved every single minute of it—the world, the characters, the romances and bromances, the angst, the humor, the costuming, the turtle…. all of it. ❤️💙
Just have to say that I feel like I’ve seen so many dramas that are about “mega-star music idols,” and they can sometimes be so cringe both in the songs written for the drama and the sometimes subpar stage performances. This drama blew me away. Eun Bin is not only a talented actor, but she is also an incredibly talented vocalist. And all of the songs written for her in this drama are also just so BEAUTIFUL. This drama hit so many perfect notes in so many ways. 💕
This started out incredibly strong. I know we're here mostly here for our adult mains, but wow, the teen actors absolutely stuck the landing and more in this first ep. Honestly, I'd watch the whole drama with just them. Episode 1 exceeded all my expectations.
I genuinely do not know what to rate this. I enjoyed it, but the tone was literally all over the place. I wished the the serial killer plot had wrapped in episode 11 or 12 with the ultimate big bad being the gang that Jangyeol was trying to take down. I wish more things had been dealt it’s more thoroughly: his friend’s death, her mother’s death, Seonwoo’s mom’s disappearance, her grandfather’s death, Seonwoo’s death. These were all really big and/or driving issues, that turned in to cheap plot devices rather than things that received the gravity and/or resolution that they deserved. Also, WHERE IS JUSTIN? What happened to him? Did I imagine him? I can’t find him in the cast. He did exist, right?
So as a rule I typically steer clear of anything that involves boxing or baseball. I just tend to avoid movies and dramas about sports in general. However, I love Lee Sang Yeob, so I thought I'd give this a try..... and to my surprise, I'm really enjoying this show. I'm in the middle of a few dramas currently and this is the one my brain keeps obsessing over.
Also. Kim So Hye is extremely charming and adorable.
Also. This show is making me really hungry for donuts.
Let me just say.... this show is incredible. The risks the writers have chosen to take with the story this season thus far are both admirable and heartbreaking, and it is edge of your seat entertaining at all times. Everyone is just hitting a grand slam with this drama from the writing, to the characters, to the acting, to the props department.
However, I will say the choice to focus a little more heavily on the autopsies this season will probably keep this from being a rewatch for me. If you are at all bothered by that kind of thing, this show should come with a huge trigger warning.
