Ki-baek's deep ass voice and Kang Han-na's dimples are supporting cast members for this drama frfr
When I'm in a "being kind, understanding and supportive" competition and my opponent is Ki-baek.
I feel like there might be legal? ethical? considerations for putting in a writer for the variety show, but lawyer eonni signed off on it so I think we're all good
They're supposed to be playing the game but Ki-baek's just staring at her and lighting up when Woo-joo is happy 😭🥺
I didn't like the reveal with the kid. First, because it was so obvious. And what's wrong with a love interest being a single mom, guys? 🤨 Ki-baek I expected better from you at least... **
Do you think the lady who plays the first love... Like, that actress, do you think she looks at the script and goes, "aww man, not again? I went to acting school to play devious ex gf #24 ? :/"
The mom definitely kimchi-slapped her, right? Oh, nvm, Jeong-heon being kinda scummy as always
**I'm sorry I ever doubted you muscle boy
Ofc Woo-jo chose her ex over Ki-baek. Cause ~drama~
Remember when this was a drama about a guy who cannot lie? Now it's a dating show crossed with a makjang...
That time skip was definitely something. But hey at least the variety show arc is over - I liked it at first, but it overstayed it's welcome imo - and I'm happy to see where this drama goes nextm ALSO THAT KISS WAS EVERYTHING. So nice of Woo-joo and Ki-baek to invent romance.
The dating arc is gonna be something else. He's gonna be flirting every sec because of no filter.
"no lady covers their face in this day and age, you've watch too many period drama" dawg, you're the gatekeeper for a village that reinstituted the Joseon caste system. Tf you yapping about
A guy in a hanbok clutching baguettes shouldn't be so funny. Also what is this meet cute 😭😭
Yeah, sure, stereotypical SFL but wow Se-ryoung has a cool voice. too bad she's stuck in a weird Joseon LARP cult, she'd make a great audiobook narrator. Or start a podcast, queen 🙏🏾🙏🏾 you can talk about the tradwife lifestyle or whatever the poor women in this cursed village like to talk about
This FL has such pretty eyes! Like the ML from When the Weather is Fine. Also her outfits always slaayy
Yeah, that's his noona for sure. If I'm right, they're crazy for that spicy ass previews 🪱🔥
I really like that Ki-baek has three possible love interests, not by being conventionally attractive or "cool", but just by being kind. He's not flashy or loud about it (except for the crowd scene*), he just quietly helps anyone he sees having a hard time, even when's he preoccupied with something else. It's really wholesome. Like, it would not even occur to me to hold the branches away so they don't hit the person behind, for instance.
* He doesn't even like Jeong-heon that much! But he saw what the man was going through and still helped him, despite the risk of humiliation or getting beat up.
Ep. 2: I was worried she'd just be a pushover again, >!but the way she set up the ex and her awful boss at the restaurant was so badass but in a realistic way.!< Go off, queen. More of this energy please.
I'm gonna keep it real, could not care less about the stolen antiquities stuff. Can we get back to the romcom? Also where did his pretty bodyguard go?
THERE SHE IS!!! >!I just knew there was gonna be a love line with the brother lmao, wasn't expecting him to be the damsel in distress "Do not lose confidence just cause you weak asf"!< *cue romantic music* Amazing, this is cinema.
If only this lady reserved some of the grisly threats and physical violence for her workplace bullies 😞
Ik what cops are like, but why is a Joseon LARPer doing all the detective work 💀💀
It's not a kdrama if there's no>! tragically dead parent.!<
So like... Did they resurrect Joseon feudalism in this weird ass village? Like the caste system and slavery and all?
... So they did. They did in fact resurrect the caste system. >!Wtf is that storyline with the hot chef guy? I'm guessing he was a servant like his mom and blamed for everything that went wrong with the girl.!<
This FL is so cute 🥺🥺>! she was so surprised when he prostrated, she did it too 😭😭 "I'm not gonna let anyone walk over me" famous last words. Yeah, I'm just gonna skip ahead. Don't want to see this poor lady get humiliated any further.!<
Well, I really liked these episodes except for all the workplace bullying. Hope that ends anytime soon 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Ladies, if your first love confession doesn't work, simply keep repeating it in different languages. Eventually your crush will run out of languages to say "no" in... and that's how you WIN
Not the waitress calling out the proposal as too aggressive 😭
Quirky Confucian boy STUNS evil foreign barbarians with ADVANCED combat skills
... Which is all very cool, but why that detective kinda.... The Son Suk-ku patented scruffy beard look 🔥🔥
I'm a nerd obsessed with history but even I think these guys are taking it too far. Why is bro having conniptions over the most chaste club wear I've ever seen 💀💀 also me thinks this isn't the first time pretty bodyguard lady snuck into a club 👀👀
My face went red and steam billowed forth from my ears, like I was a Tom & Jerry character. Look at this mf gaslighting her, so disgusting...
Sis became the Joker.
This drama is so unserious, what's with the Vine sound effects?? 😭😭 Also that's the THIRD time she's slipped and fallen into his arms
Imagine trying to drunkenly undress your former student because your boyfriend was two timing with your boss.
Of the ENA dramas I've seen, they should've had 2 episodes more or 4 episodes less. Or more accurately, a lot of kdramas start out great and become very muddled at the end. These last few episodes felt like a slog tbh, but at least we got happily-ever-afters for everyone and a lot of cuteness along the way.
Speaking of cuteness, I loved the couples. All of them were adorable and had great chemistry imo. the friendships were sweet too. I could watch a few specials of just Bom and Ki-joo flirting, with the ghost gang ribbing them about it (rip Baek). Ji-won and Deputy Go were also adorable, though I'm not sure about the viability of their relationship... but who am I to judge as long as they're happy?
And of course, all the cases of the week always had me moved and at the verge of tears. Seo Ji-hoon was the most tragic to me, but Yoon-cheol's gotta be up there (hope you're smiling in the netherworld about finally getting justice, buddy). It was also nice to see the kid Kijoo helped earlier on come back to help him :)
All in all, I had a great time for most of the drama's run. maybe 8 or 8.5 from me?
p.s. I'm just happy they didn't have Na-rae end up with the flowerboy. An atleast somewhat positive ending to a pointless and annoying storyline.

But the angst in the preview makes me anxious...
