On Step by Step Love Jul 20, 2024
Just about all the comments which have been made by others are true. Really good chemistry between the ML and FL. Too many episodes - the last few episodes dragged. The Kumbaya ending was disappointing. Villains deserve punishment unless there is a realistic redemption arc. There was no such thing for the sister. In fact (and I am serious about this) the girl needed serious psychiatric inpatient treatment. She displayed sociopathic tendencies. Wrapping her up in a neat little package did a disservice to the viewer. But on the whole it is a fun way to spend to few hours if you have nothing else to do.
On Trial Marriage Jul 10, 2024
Maybe it's because I do not speak Mandarin and had to rely on English subtitles, but I found the plot very difficult to follow. I enjoyed the acting. I didn't think there were any weak links in the company. No re-watch value for me.

I apologize in advance if I am placing my Western understanding of parental love and filial responsibility onto this drama, but I feel as though I have just spent 37 episodes watching some of the nastiest, most self absorbed people in Dramaland. The redemptive story arcs did not make up for everything which came before it. Why did I continue to watch? I liked the ML and FL. There were moments of tenderness that brought tears to my eyes, but these moments were outweighed by the behaviors of the adult characters. One thing I continues to think about throughout the 37 episodes was if playing the character of the mother, day in and day out, had a psychological impact on the actor. MY other thought was how much might menopause play into the character's behavior and thought process. Menopause was never mentioned. Good luck if you start this drama. I was anxious for it to be over, but couldn't quit it because I wanted to see how it ended.
On Ready, Set, Love May 5, 2024
I had no expectations when I began to watch this. I chose it because it was only 6 episodes and I needed a filler, that I could complete before I started a very busy week ahead. This is my first Thai drama. And I liked it. Of course since it was only 6 episodes there is a down side - characters and their stories are kinda rushed. But the pluses certainly outweigh the minuses. The ending most certainly set up a second season.
On The Matchmakers Apr 11, 2024
Although I am not generally a fan of sageuks (too much poison, death, subterfuge) I really liked this. I started to watch thinking that it would be a romantic comedy and rather lighthearted. It was comedic, but it was so much more. I found myself laughing and crying and cheering on all the couples. The cinematography was exceptional and I really felt that the OST complimented the story as it played out. Recommended.
On Exploration Method of Love Apr 6, 2024
I liked this drama even though it did have rlot holes big enough to drive a truck through and many continuity errors. It had unnecessary story arcs (like her father) and the absolute most cringe worth little sister on the planet. Then why did I like it? The character development of the. ML was wonderful to watch. The acting was pretty good. If you read the bios there are some wonderfully talented people in the cast. But warching the ML as he grew in affection for the FL was truly heartwarming. I laughed and cried.
On Love Destiny Mar 29, 2024
Title Love Destiny
Not bad, but not great. I liked the plot. the background music I found to be very annoying. obviously produced "on the cheap". The sets were dowdy and the wardrobe was vertical limited. but I did lije the plot and it was easy to binge.
On Born to Be Together Mar 14, 2024
I am a suker for anything with cute kids. This was a quick easy watch. I wish there had been more with the kids. The AI generated English Captions...well...I have seen worse, but not being able to read Chinese (Mandarin?) I missed a lot with anything printed on the screen. If you love dramas with cute kids and you have a couple of empty hours then go for it!
On Dusk Love Mar 13, 2024
Title Dusk Love
I really liked this drama. I thought it was much better than the typical short dramas I have seen. The chemistry between the leads was good. I thought the male lead was VERY good. He was funny, sexy, and heroic. at times. I really liked it. And oh, that bath tub!
On Golden House Hidden Love Mar 7, 2024
Just finished this. Very satisfying and I am not a big fan of supernatural plot lines. I will admit there were times when I was wondering what was going on in the plot, but it does come together and explanations are given. Don't let the height difference scare you away.

i agree! learning sign language isnt easy either and she did a great job
you are so right. For a hearing person, who is not CODA, or an interpreter her signing was pretty good. Of course I am not conversant with Chinese Sign Language, only American Sign Language.
On Sweet Trap Feb 23, 2024
Title Sweet Trap
I enjoyed this drama. It was not "heavy" nor filled with love triangles. I was especially touched by the relationship between the FL and her father. Of course one has to let go of making sense of all the plot devices. Sometimes I was left wondering "How did that just happen?" But on the whole it was a pleasant diversion.
On My Piggy Boss Feb 5, 2024
There is so much to recommend about this short sweet drama that it is easy to overlook its deficits. 12 short episodes make it an easy watch. The energy of the cast is infectious (and I mean that in a GOOD way). It drew me in right from the start with the juxtaposition of the male lead and the pig. I found that bath scene hysterical. All in all if you are looking for a pleasant, feel good story and you don't have a lot of time - this is the one.
On Hilarious Family Oct 25, 2023
Hilarious? No, although amusing at times. Heartwarming? YES!!!! I was brought to tears so many times due to the wonderful storytelling. Excellent cast. Everyone just jelled with each other. Highly recommended. I hope that there will be a second season.

There are tons of amazing J dramas with sincere portrayals of deafness. You may want to check out some of these…
Thank you so much for your suggestions! I will be sure to look!

As I write this comment war is raging in Israel and Gaza. And even though I live thousands of miles away from the war the horror is almost is too much to fathom. This drama is the antidote to the feelings of despair that war brings. It brings peace to my heart.
Replying to Lucky Star Oct 2, 2023
Have just finished this one, and all I can say about this is it is so poorly written I can’t even begin with…
Your English is wonderful. Please do not apologize for it. Many. many native English speakers do not write as well as you. Keep it up!
