Lol I'm with you, I'm in this show more for HJP than the rest of the cast. Kim Seon Ho's acting is just so captivating. Especially all the heart warming or heart wrenching scenes with grandma. Doesn't help that young HJP was Nam Da Reum, one of my favorite child actors. Lol so yes, sorry but I am indeed biased towards HJP.
This is the one time I really hope SL comes out on top. From the looks of it, that's not going to happen, but if it does, I'd be pleasantly surprised. And if it doesn't happen, I hope she just doesn't end up with either of them.
Putting all the lying and impersonating items aside, I just don't feel the chemistry between DS and DM, even when they had their kiss scene. Yet, it feels like there's this quiet sizzle when DM and HJP are together that is waiting to burst out. Their banter and discussions just invite more personality from both of them and are great to watch.
And honestly, I don't even know why there's discussions on who is at fault for the lie. They all are. Grandma started it, HJP is her accomplice and so is DS, the moment he showed up at that networking event - had he not, HJP probably would've done something else to save face for DM. They all had the chance to come clean and they all found some excuse not to. So....... yeah.
So like...did Yong Sil's developer outright agree to be a part of NoonGil? No struggle getting them aboard? And…
That bothered me, but it also bothers me that Youngshil isn't 100% accurate, so to have visually impaired persons use it right now as they are developing it also doesn't seem right to me. Youngshil still answers things wrong and so did their facial recognition AI, so what if it accidentally incorrectly identifies something and the user gets injured or worst, dies. It just all seemed super rushed to me. But shrug
Watching this while waiting for new Ruyi episodes and imma be real, this is a show you watch for the friendship, not the romance haha the dynamic between the 4 'guys' are hilarious and I love all of Le Xuan's cheeky remarks and knowing smirks - it's adorable. And Lei Ao is a true tsundere but so protective of his 'little brother'. Also loved his friendship with Le Xuan and his banter with Feng Cheng Jun. Overall, its a good binge watch since you can FF when it gets a bit slow, but not lose interest if you had to wait for episodes to come out.
That ending was ridiculous.... after everything she just commits suicide? They didn't even tell her family.... so what is he gonna say after now. Oh, my queen committed suicide, life goes on? What a joke. Pretty much the last episode was suicide nation. No one got killed they all killed themselves, from the antagonists to the protagonists. Sigh.
This show better get a season 2 with the same cast. The ladies are such a riot, I love watching them and the male guests and Yoo Jae Suk. Hahaha they're hilarious and with Jessi's no nonsense and no filter attitude, all the ladies are like great, us too! And let's be real, all the ladies are crazy forces as individuals, but together comedy ensues hahaa can't wait for the last episode with Cha Tae Hyun. LMAOOO they HAD to bring another variety male star to battle it out in the last episode so that Yoo Jae Suk has a partner.
The directing in this drama could be better. Like it has a good premise with great actors but I feel like it falls short. Similar to the first episode showcasing Cha Joo Eun's back story, Episode 3 was Lee Jwong Hwan's back story or part of it. Thats great, we need the back story, but it just felt almost out of place or shoved in our face. I wished they interweaved it in better but I guess it is what it is. Definitely knew he wasn't dead, so end of episode 4 wasn't anything surprising. At this point, it seems like its going to be a Jeong Hwan X Joo Eun X Bok Gi VS Edward Kim?
I couldn't even get halfway through the first ep of Private Lives. I'm wondering if I should just give it another…
Yeah, I kept hitting the FF button for the first episode of Private Lives. The 2nd episode was much more interesting with the introduction of the ML. They just didn't set up the initial plot for the FL well enough. Like, I'm sure we were supposed to sympathize for her but that didn't really kick in just a bit at the end of Episode 2.
Lol both this and Private Lives didn't get me during the pilot episode but the 2nd episode reeled me in. Looking forward to both! Now, into Tales of the Nine Tailed haha
We all know she's not going to end up with the second lead, if she does, that's gonna be a shock and the first time I see it happening. But I hope that Lee Soo does something to make up for how he's treated her these past few years. It's one thing to not accept her feelings but another to continue treating her as a friend - and let's be real, he treats her as more than a friend when you've already rejected her twice. And I don't think he ever gave her a reason why? I think he just says I don't like you, but lol that's obviously not true based on his actions.
I knew he was too conveniently there to be an honest person. The alleyway kiss, approaching her and her friend at the bar, no communication for awhile to reel her in then he shows up again with flowers, and lastly, the bomb drop of the parents dinner. All of it was so suspicious to me, but we're all blind in the face of love so I can't really blame her for not noticing. I wonder if her mom figured it out though when she was at the wedding reception. It felt like she sensed something before she got up and left. Overall, I'm glad that this was the second episode, it made up for the 1st episode and more so. And lmaoooo, now that we know they're both liars, maybe there's a chance they may end up together? Too hopeful of me? Lol they just have such amazing chemistry together!! I mean, their 2nd episode kiss with minimal remained build up beats most main couple 8th episode kiss \•3•/
Not sure why people like to compare the 2 couples and bring down the main couple because they're more serious. I mean, the characters themselves have said how envious they are of their younger siblings in this aspect. They have responsibilities and they shoulder those with seriousness and integrity and I see nothing wrong with that. I enjoy watching both couples since they offer different things to the show and I like that. My only qualm is how the main FL continuously rejects the ML when we all know she likes him too. I get it. She probably doesn't want to bring shame on the family if rumors start especially since her sister is the current Empress, among other obstacles. However, I think just expressing her interest would be fair. Enjoying the show for what it is! I still find Wang Zhuo Cheng to have the funniest expressions sometimes. But his smile is really bright and really makes others smile too, or maybe just me. Lol
I haven't watched it but am interested. I've seen quite a few comments saying it's strange and quirky but good. So why the 7.7 rating? What's wrong with it?
LOL.... I just saw that this is airing now. Chinese dramas are like little surprises to me. I never know when they air, but when they do, we get like the first 6-8 episodes lol. Can't wait to watch it after I finish the current Love Is Sweet episode haha
I honestly believe that the ML also likes her as "More Than Friends." It's pretty damn obvious and he's just oblivious to it either because of past trauma he received from his parents or he's unconsciously afraid that if they do get together, he would lose her forever if anything goes wrong.But either way, it's pretty aholey to reject her not once, but twice and still have the audacity to ask to remain friends. I can't tell if he's just socially inept and doesn't understand human emotions or if he's just being selfish and being the type of human he described - putting his feelings first (aka not wanting to get hurt and losing a 'friend'.) I love Kim Dong Jun but how old are they all supposed to be right now (28?). Kim Dong Jun just looks SO YOUNG as a CEO. Lol handsome CEO, but just strikingly young looking. I don't mind her ending up with either of these guys since behind his narccistic, cold front, the ML cares for her in his weird way and they've showed us. When she's bullied and such. And also, we've seen it many times when a guy gets angry at a girl when she gets injured it more on the guy being hurt and venting since he wasn't able to protect the girl he likes or because of him she was physically injured. Lastly, I hope nothing goes wrong with the childhood sweethearts that are part of their friend circle. They seem so sweet together ever since high school. And LOL are they going to make the Prosecutor and PO's character a couple? Is everything going to be predictable or will they throw some variety and twists at us?
I think that was how it is though I cannot understand the last part why Yu Tian came in the motorbike. What was…
Tbh, I thought the doctor inserts were to hint that he was/is a potential pair with Karen. That's how I read that. The moment he showed up and they showed his ring as a part of the dying mother storyline i knew his wife had passed away already. Also, with him being a motorcyclist , I read that as him being Karen's type. But the ending scene was so confusing. Now Yutian is ok a motorcycle, is he back to be with Karen? I can't imagine him and Yi He, they're such good friends. And nothing hinted at her not having a happy end with Shopkeeper Chen so.... overall, it was a nice series, but unless there's a season 2, the ending could tie up the last couple as well.
Putting all the lying and impersonating items aside, I just don't feel the chemistry between DS and DM, even when they had their kiss scene. Yet, it feels like there's this quiet sizzle when DM and HJP are together that is waiting to burst out. Their banter and discussions just invite more personality from both of them and are great to watch.
And honestly, I don't even know why there's discussions on who is at fault for the lie. They all are. Grandma started it, HJP is her accomplice and so is DS, the moment he showed up at that networking event - had he not, HJP probably would've done something else to save face for DM. They all had the chance to come clean and they all found some excuse not to. So....... yeah.
