Thanks but I'm looking for a proper 1020 with good sound version
On A Girl & Three Sweethearts Mar 30, 2024
I nearly started watching this again under it's A girl and Three Sweethearts title fortunately I came here and checked my notes -
"Rapey Kiss, from a smug cold nasty bastard" so I obvs didn't like it last time.

Title No Secrets
This is so shallow compared to the Kdrama version it's ridiculous. They changed so many important aspects of how…
Thanks for that I'll not bother.

It's a fair cop - I made a deal with myself not to watch or read things unless I was enjoying them. So doesn't matter how much time I have invested if I stop enjoying it I drop it.
Suggest some some to me and I'll try them or retry them I'm open to being wrong or accepting my taste may have changed. Nothing sad for the time being though.

Title Moonshine
How did she chop that tree down with a splitting maul? Not a good start really.

Title Love All Play Spoiler

Unfortunately it wasn't for me.
I found the sports unconvincing, too many close ups of taking a shot without showing where it went making it hard to follow and obvious they weren't playing.
The FL failed to make me care about her over the episodes I watched she wasn't hard done by enough for sympathy or enough of a fighter to root for.
The 2 MLs just came over as supercilious and full of themselves - I'm so handsome, I'm so cool, I don't have to try - wankers.
The fact that they established the power dynamic between the ML and the FL with a flashback "you saved me by teaching me badminton" just pissed me off.
I ended up where I didn't like (or dislike) any of the characters, main or side, enough to care what happened to them.

I'm not a great fan of sports dramas though and I'm old so it's not you it's me I'm glad you enjoyed it more than I did.

Sadly I came across most of these when quite far along my Drama journey and so the 'problematic' aspects of them stand out without the warmth of nostalgia to round them off.
I don't think I have managed to watch any of them in their entirety (1LNN - I am still waiting to watch the last episode - when I can cope).
Devil Beside You and Ko One I haven't tried yet so there is some hope.
Thanks for the article

As long as there's Sandra Ma this would be a good Drama but why do you look so fat? Have you just given birth?
I like the contrast between reasoning and confrontation but both of the above are on point.
On Knight Flower Mar 8, 2024
Not for me I'm afraid I struggled through 2 episodes but was unconvinced by any of it.

I tried... I couldn't get past two episodes. He is a doctor, he's busy, but he is unnecessarily stand-offish with…
I ended up dropping this because I found his interaction with the FL creepy in a Stalker sort of way and as @Sinmar says I tend to lose interest in the nice half of a couple if they follow a creep round like a dog (M or F). I get IRL it's something you should try and help them break out of but in a Romance Drama it's DROP!

I think this is perception rather than reality.I admit that I haven't been on MDL for years (Btw..I can't comment…
I usually find them too gushingly positive so it's hard to find a balanced critique - it's 10 or it's 1. I usually find it's best not to delve too deeply in the comments section whilst the drama is airing especially if there is another "popular" drama airing at the same time. People get very tribal about their favourite celebs.
C dramas can have very partisan fan bases as well who try very hard to get high scores for their favourite actors' shows.

Very helpful of you to explain it to me in such a polite fashion, could you please check the other 366 dramas I have dropped in case there are any more I need to be shown how to appreciate /have explained to me.

Fortunately now you have told me without the use of the spoiler flag everyone else will know how to appreciate this one too.

Started this once and dropped it in the first episode due to the FL hurling herself at the ML due to love at first…
I actually got a dozen episodes in second time before stopping again. I liked the characters, the actors and all the cute moments but after a while it felt a bit like they could be watched in any order, as if it was just cute vignettes threaded on a very thin cord. I may drop back in when I fancy a cute moment but I like more plot in my shows.
