Still so short, i would love they would made a whole "real" series out of that pairing. They are really cute together! Personally, i am totally into WinWin. Just my kind of man. Would really love to see both actors more often, especially together.
Ah.. It is a nice series, the costumes are gorgeous and the actors are good. If China would be opened minded, this would have been a fantastic series. But as it is, they took a great story, throw away a lot of things and puzzled the rest together. Having those restrictions, such closed mindedness in these era, it is a shame.
It is a good and cute series overall. The actors are really good and there is one to fall in love with for every taste.
But that painter girl was so annoying nearly throughout the entire series! At episode 11 i was like "Gosh, go, please go and never come back!". I never understand what Han Seong saw in here, but she starts to be okay from episode 15 and really lovely in episode 17. Han Seong himself, ah, i love him. A bit too "victim", but well. There is always one thing, right?
Han Gyul, the really handsome male lead, is a really good pair with Eun Cha, who is simply awesome. But: I wanted to slap him so hard in various scenes! He can be really egocentric and unreasonable. Well, a pampered only child from a rich family, he really played his role perfectly! Eun Cha. What can i say? Awesome. You will laugh with her, you will fight tears when she cries. She really takes you into the series.
The other pairs through out the series where cute, well played and i would have wished the series would had more episodes so that the different side stories had more room. So the last episode really rushes through, what made especially the story of Ha Rim really strange because the viewer felt to have missed an important thing of story.
Male ML gave me pure psychopath murderer vibe . I do get narcissistic asshole characters but his character is…
Did you watch "Bad Guys"? Park Hae Yin brings on a fantastic dark character there. Amazing and haunting, so i hesitate if i can stand watch Cheese in the Trap...
Stating the facts? Vampires exists in european scripts since the very early 17th century, in stories since at least 14th century. So yes, we have a loooong history with vampires and as i am sure they are all kind of stalkers but mostly not as pro-stalker like Edward, those special effects in those movies where as shallow as hollywood effects can be. Aimed at the teenage girl, so they did what they always do: Got some handsome guys, dumped a ton of sparkle, overused the diffusor and the special angles, the slow motions and sound effects to made girls hearts skip a beat or two. It used in so, so many movies and it rarely fails its mission. It did not fail in twilight either, it covered up for the blank stares of bella, the totally unlogic of edward, the sometimes just plain miserable acting of the actors and some other things.
For me, i like that the effects in asian vampire series are different. It is one of the charms. But i also love the old nosferatu, my little precious who still can make me go "aaaaw!" every time i see that old b/w movie. Without any special effect. If a movie or series is good always differ with the viewer. What one likes, the other dislikes. (Thats why i rarely watch movies based on books. No one can make a movie better than my imagination while reading and feeling the book.)
And the reason why vampires never took of is simple: The asian viewpoint on romance is different from the western viewpoint. More important, the view of the afterlife is much different. There is simply no need for the modern romanticised stalking vampire because there are many more beautiful endless love stories in asian myths.
I stumbled over this movie by accident and always had the feeling i kind of missed something important throughout the movie. Now that i read here it is obvious. I dont know the Manhua or the anime, for viewers like me there is a lot of explaining story missing in the movie. Nonetheless, its nice to watch and i would watch it again. The actors do quite well and personally i want to adopt that little rascal JinHua.
Oh my. This is... just wow. Never cried that much with any drama. The 2 mains create a real feeling, taking us down that road and especially Banks... Fluke (Natouch), his smile gets me every time and when he cries my heart aches in pain. He just have that special something, back then and now even more.
His smile always gets me. Such a gentle smile, but with the power to light up everyones heart. I really hope we will see more and more movies and series with him as a main role, through all the genres.
I just finished watching it. bought it over at vimeo. I would have paid more to watch a movie at the cinema, but at the big screens you do not get that kind of good quality content! The male leads take you with them on a wild trip, but also the other actors are so real! It is a joy to watch every person, from beautiful kindhearted to that twisted mind. (I wont spoiler, watch it yourself. Watch it!) Yes, this is a love story. But it also is a damn awesome action movie! I squealed at the cute scenes, i sat with wide eyes and grabbed my pillow very tight at the drama and action scenes, i was filled with fear, happiness, anxiety, felt fluttering and excitement... This series/movie is so good, so well done especially for a indie production! Go and buy it. Or lend it. Pay the money and spread the word about that awesome series so that the whole staff can get the recognition they deserve. (I would give them an oscar!)

Good has those lovely puppy eyes ♥ But i am all in for WinWin! ♥
