As a fan of both Korean and US versions, the first two episodes feels lacking because of Shone's acting. The portrayal and mannerisms of the autistic character fall short, and some of the operating scenes props seem off.
I don’t mean to only point out the negatives, but I genuinely hope things improve as the episodes progress. The story has potential; it just feels like the production and direction need to step up.
As a big fan of the original, I was initially missing some scenes, particularly the super crazy Jian Jian moments. However, out of all the dramas that have remakes, I’m really loving this one. Even though I know what’s going to happen, the changes they made still manage to surprise me.
I especially appreciate the changes in Hae Jun's character. I like to think that because he’s treated so well and deeply loved, he has the confidence to express his emotions and jealousy rather than keeping them bottled up. The chemistry between the trio is so natural that I hardly noticed the time passing while watching them.
I know it’s impossible not to compare, but if we take them as different personas and don’t expect each character to act exactly the same way or be as detailed as the original, this drama will take us on a wild ride, too. When I heard about the remake, my only hope was that they would give the original a run for its money—and so far, I haven't been let down. 🤍
what's the fondest / painful / wackiest / happiest, angriest scene you 1st remember when you read this? I'll start
- Zhi Qui's bday where dad Hai Chao got mad and made himself drunk because of the ZQ aunt. 😭😭 cried silently, I need to stop and think of my awol father... if he can be as half loving and responaible as HC, my life is complete.
idk if its because i feel so attached with chef edward lee and him losing that i felt like the final ep seems…
I've never watched a cooking competition before, but the set design is incredible. The black and white color scheme, like pieces on a Go board, is genius. I also love the logo—it looks like two people facing off, and if you look closely, it even resembles a spoon. The whole production is so grand, it makes the viewing experience truly chef's kiss. 🤍🖤
idk if its because i feel so attached with chef edward lee and him losing that i felt like the final ep seems luckluster than the semis...I mean the chefs created wonderful dish out of tufo and Chef Lee created a 6-course meal on top of that, really great episode. The finale could have been more memorable if they fought back and forth at least thrice for the thrill but yeah since I believe in the integrity of Chek Paik, it cant be manipulated just to satisfy such narrative. Still a fun watch. I got hungry every episode 🤭
woaah we have a remake🥹 Go Ahead is one of the top-rated C-dramas on MDL for a reason. The challenge with remakes is that, like it or not, comparisons with the original are inevitable. I just hope the Korean version can stand on its own and make 'Go Ahead' fans proud. For those who haven’t seen the original, I hope they enjoy this version because the story is truly captivating. You should give 'Go Ahead' a try too—the actors are natural and will melt your heart.
I’m planning to binge-watch the episodes this weekend! 🤍
I hate watching when they're airing cos I love to binge shows but I HAD to start this one cos of all the hype.…
i usually watch cdramas/kdrama as it aired since its longer but binge BLs cos they we're fewer eps, but im starting this right now so i can feel that SO GOOD feeling 🥹
