ep. 7: Dude, I was literally looking up the MDL page of the girl from My Demon today!! ðŸ˜ðŸ’€ And voila, she showed up in this drama!! Did the producers/ casting agents get a brainwave from me or something??
God, I love the romance here. She's so refreshingly upfront and she's adorably (?) grumpy rather than pushy. Kwon Nara was perfect casting for this role, I have to say! Plus, I love all his little smiles when she just straight up charms him.
Not sure how I feel about the sudden stalker twist, but this was a good episode nevertheless. I was super locked in fr. But God, this man has serious kdrama character syndrome. Why on earth are you confronting a dangerous ghost when you could just, idk, call the badass detective ghost??
I hate that this drama is making me side with the 30yo dating a high schooler ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ the parents are very valid in not wanting him to date their daughter, why is everyone else in universe okay with it ðŸ˜
Netflix got this drama just for me! the perfect thing to watch after a tough day at work, it's so relaxing and chill. I just wish they'd release all episodes at once! 🥺
people insult and criticize Japanese acting all the time, but you can tell what range Fumi Nikaido has based on the difference between her portrayal of Ochiba in Shogun and how she is in this drama 🔥🔥🫡🫡
you know, I've just noticed but I've never seen an earthquake in a native Japanese drama or movie. not even a baby earthquake, despite how common seismic activity is in Japan. is it a taboo, due to the 2011 earthquake? or is it so commonplace it's not worth depicting it?
actually i don't really get the "over the top" comment from some intl viewers. i've been watching jdramas my whole…
that's what I'm saying!! her acting - and the acting in jdramas - is not even the OTT! idk why ppl criticize jdramas so much... if it's a manga adaptation or straight comedy, yeah, there's some over acting but most Japanese content has a perfectly naturalistic style.
I'm seeing a lot of kdrama stans criticize the FL and the over-the-top acting/comedy... When essentially, ELY is Japanese creators paying homage to the kdramas they love. I didn't even notice all the kdrama tropes until this Reddit comment pointed it out:
"Comments from non-Jdrama watchers regarding Eye Love You always give me a laugh. I don't think they realize how much of it reflects tropes that people in Japan often associate with Kdramas. The wishy washy female lead, the pushy male lead that's given a pass because he's cute, the love triangle being rounded out by a male best friend that's always been secretly in love with her... all classic Kdrama tropes."
IDK if it's the script or the cinematography but it feels really subpar. The interactions felt immature and cheesy.…
they spent so much effort into getting a Korean actor, they forgot to spend time on the writing 💀 but idk I'm enjoying it but it's not my fav or something I look forward to, if you know what I mean?
