some random cool nuna

why do you think so? because of the SFL's parents?

Came here to throw my every-other-day dose of complaints about the impossibility of this drama being an 8.3 to then discover that the rating of episode 5 was a mega jump and similar to the one of Red Sleeve's episode 5 when it was airing. Ahh...such a joy 🥹

I think it's not a common saying but an allegory like butterflies in the stomach, but unique to JH

We don't know. So far it's emotional and entertaining rather than sad

Just because she is a virgin like every other unmarried woman in the village because that's how the society was back in the days, she is not innocent: she's literally the fox with the 99 tails - that's how everyone knows her - she's that cunning. Innocent is not the same thing as naive. She then goes on to show the strength that silly written characters of the majority of dramas can dream of having. Do you even know what happens inside this drama? Why are you here writing assumptions over assumptions over something you have not watched? Pehaps, use your free time in a more productive way (e.g. by watching it instead eheh)

I have seen enough dramas like Crash Course in Romance, The World of the Married, Tomorrow, Witch's Romance, Queen of Masks, etc to know what Asian dramas don't have this issue as much as in Hollywood (where I have not seen this issue as prominent either). If I were to complain about the age of the casting I am actually usually more pissed when they show flower / K-pop boys randomly cast in very serious roles in historical (non even modern) dramas. I am not sure where your presuppositions came from

No. In this drama there is a very specific reason for him to be older. He has to be older and more experienced in life because he is the only one who has seen it all and is ready for what is to come. This is what makes him different from every other boy in the village: that he's not a boy. She has to be young and young enough and innocent enough not to have seen the horrors of life and this is what makes her growth in episode 4 onwards so striking. These aspects are building blocks of the drama so no, another way wouldn't do, for this drama. Everything in life is not generalizable. Every detail of this drama is well thought so far, including the spectacular cast

ohh I didn't think about it ahahah

This is still unbelievable to us all that it's not watched enough

spoiler tag please

nope

Accurate, I didn't think about it but yes IMDB is the right place to rate it justly

I just don't understand. I have never been so confused about the rating of a drama ever before because they are somehow understandable but this is just unacceptable

*for any show* - indeed

I just come back to check the rating every day because this ain't no 8.3 and this pisses me off so much. If we consider even episode 4 only, it is one of the best episodes ever made in the history of dramas. UGH.

Not only the romance tbh, everything is perfectly depicted, they even highlight the unfairness of the bigotry

My Dearest is the first thing coming to my mind now: it's ongoing. Red Sleeve, Hospital Playlist, Reply 1988, Fight for my way, Her private life, My Mister....hmm too many to remember, oh I would say even Master's Sun - which is the drama they were watching together on tv

For competent characters, if you can tolerate ongoing dramas: My Dearest (it's another dimension of good, and episode 4, which is the latest is basically one of the best in the history of television, without exaggerations)

holding your farts in??? ahahahaha that was so random
