Great review, thanks. I had problems with the 2019 version because I didn't ship the main couple at all - this sounds worse! You've saved me some time.
I'm rewatching this at the mo' and revelling in it's trashy airport novel marvelousness! Such fun! I like the homage to Yoo Ri's Fun-staurant turn - he likes wine so...
I think part of the enjoyment for me is knowing Yoo Ri is as mad as toast IRL it lends a whole new shine to her character's vulnerable, Stepford Wife routine. When those big Puppy Dog eyes fill with tears or she does that blank eyed smile I'm totally convinced no matter how barmy the plot is.
The ML talking to everyone like they are moron's though is harder to handle. If I spoke to my 10yo like that I'd get short shrift.
Watch it - it's pants, but.. they are made of shiny purple velvet with yellow satin stars sewn on by hand.
Whilst I haven't finished many of the ones mentioned here I do like a romance with a subtle progression. The Rational Life did it for me showing that getting comfortable with each other progression well. Our Little Sister did it in a family way. Oh! My Lady gives me the same feel though it's mainly watching the ML fall, fight against, then for love. Romance is a Bonus Book has some scenes I still swoon over.
Yeah honestly I wanted to turn it off after that ridiculus fight scene. But I am glad I continued I really wanted…
Hat's off to you Old Chap, I found I was happy with what we learned from the other films. I found Tomoe hard to cope with as well, or perhaps hard to care about?
Starts with a truly ridiculous sword fight and continues bloodily but slowly for a while before grinding to a crawl with every glance, motion and word oozing with significance or something or other. I don't know what happens in the end I got bored and turned it off. Stick with the original trilogy.
I had the same ride with this though I got bored and stopped watching earlier than you. It's a shame really all the ingredients were there to make it interesting but all they managed was safe and bland. Almost worth it for the florist's wicked glances.

I like the reusing of 'set buildings' for different dramas. It's a bit like the ever present clichés if you look at them literally it's annoying and spoils your immersion but if you recognise them as narrative devices they can enhance the story. Like the 'nursing a fever' cliché indicates a steadfast and caring love a building can act as a cue as well. Oh yes that's a cold lonely Chaebol's house - that rooftop means house someone poor with a heart of gold and ambition etc.
