Many years ago when sitting on a bus in my home town I encountered a doppelganger. Same hair style, glasses, big nose and ears and even similar clothing to myself. It was... disquieting!
Reading this review (in truth a few of your reviews) is a very similar experience.
I've never gone back and finished this one either.
I haven't finished it yet- got bored by the politics - but I have to agree about Nana. Thought she did really well as a comedy actress and I appreciated her homage to Audrey Hepburn, the hair, the dresses, her face - perfect!
I felt the same too. Mother forever will be my favourite drama. I also really enjoyed Just Between Lovers (but…
I really enjoyed My Mister but I found it a difficult re-watch as so much of the enjoyment is from wanting to know what'll happen next. Mother et al I find very easy to re-watch purely for the enjoyment of the scenes I know are coming. I actually skip quite a lot of First Life when I re-watch it as I don't care for the youngest couple or the last couple of episodes. So I might even swap it out for Gangnam Beauty which I find strangely addictive in it's entirety, as do my daughters. When any one of us starts a re-watch it sucks us all in like Kdrama opium.
Good list I enjoyed all of them on there except Kill Me Heal Me which I dropped a quarter of the way through. She was Pretty was nice but not in my top 20. So swap them out for Mother, which teaches love rather than romance and Just Between Lovers which teaches love and healing. And it'd do for me.
Well I'm not sure about this one, loads of actors that I like and the premise seems interesting... But five episodes in and I'm watching other stuff. The therapy plot of the first few episodes is ridiculous (never mind dangerous) which doesn't help. I'll try it again later (if only for JSM) but so far so meh.
I thought so as well at first and was about to drop it like you did. However, turned out, the story wasn't purely…
Will that sounds more my thing. I'll put it on my revisit list. I've dropped plenty of dramas due to not liking one of the romantic pairings, always nice to find something else in them. Thanks for the reply.
Nothing new here but hey its a drama. For me it was just too fluffy to care, daft comedy and little chemistry. She should have hit him more like every time he grabbed her dragged her or invaded her space, I enjoyed those bits.
I've reached an 'On Hold' point with this as I just need to take a breather from all the emotional what not. This is a strangely fascinating drama that keeps drawing me back in. I nearly gave up when the time slip happened and then when Ki Hoon reappeared - I just loathe him. But Eun Ju's twisted personality just keeps dragging me back in never mind Hyo Sun's quivering vulnerability. Never good when you can't stand the ML though.
I was intrigued through a large chunk of the first episode but it didn't last long. I was skipping through episode two when I decided to leave it for another time. Is it bad or am I just not feeling it? We'll see, the lack of reviews doesn't bode well.
Managed a couple of episodes of this but sadly the humour just didn't work for me. Two episodes in and I didn't care about any of the characters either. So two episodes in dropped.
That's a shame since it's a darling movie with a great friendship theme. You missed a lot of the really good character…
I sort of picked up on some of the development, like I said I skimmed through to the end but I still found hem creepy. I might try it again as I did like the premise.
Waited to binge watch...managed one and a half episodes. I might go back to it but at the moment I'm still trying to work out how so many potentially interesting characters and events left me so completely uninterested.
