Raraa

in "i can hear your voice", the female lead didn't kiss the second lead, but she actually fall for him first. after she had a conflict with him, she realized that she need and care about the male lead the most.

in "Reply 1994", the female lead kiss the second lead, but ended up with first male lead.

but however, i still think no way HJP ended up with SDM. as much as i love HJP, sadly i knew, that SDM will still end up with NDS.

i just wish they'd focus on the Start Up than NDS-SDM loveline, cus it's really boring, and i'm not interested even a bit.

EXACTLY. and tbh as a fans of I Can Hear Your Voice, as i already watch it like 10 times already, i can't help but comparing HJP to Park Soo Ha.

the writer seems like want to pull male lead trope to 2nd lead, but it doesn't work.

yeah people could have flaws, but i would definitely won't choose a guy like him as my boyfriend, period.
it'll tiring me to death.
he's selfish, opportunist, obsessive, manipulative.
if you like him, your choice. but not me.

well, you need to read her comment everywhere here. she even wrote comment about her own exam, like.. is this comment section or her twitter?
and in every comment, her words always unpleasant, spiteful either towards HJP or HJP fans.

you know, in real life, it's really scary to have boyfriend like him. he make her as his dream, it's not healthy at all. he's to possessive. his world is just involve around her.
before she realized, she'll be living in a cage that made by him.

i miss lee bo young so muchh

truee. she's really spiteful just like NDS

the reason why i can't root NDS :
1) he cheat to become a medalist, yet he act like living buddha all this time, make others thinking that he's so kind while in fact, he's just insecure about himself.
2) at first, he fell for dal mi for her looks (first sight), and just because she support his dream (because he used to be a loser that no one could relate), so he's not exactly fall for her character. any girl would do, if they do the same to him.
3) he's actually using dal mi to get into Sand Box. he used to threatening HJP, don't you remember?
4) because he eventually like dal mi, he suggest to HJP to not tell the truth to Dal Mi. all to benefited himself.
5) he act pitiful like, all he has is just dal mi's love. that he's a sad boi. that he's so unlucky. that HJP should just give in to him. yikes, manipulative much. he's already have his parents, family who support him. have friends who also support him. YET HE'S STILL GREEDY. ungrateful much?
6) he's really spiteful towards HJP. HJP always told a good thing about him to SDM. but him? he told lie about the crunchie, and in every moment he's trying hard to beat HJP. he even doesn't like Plan B, just because he doesn't want Ji Pyeong get close to Dal Mi.
7) he's too obsessive towards Dal Mi, following her everywhere like stalker.
8) he's always crying in every moment.

seriously, how can i suppose to like 1st lead like this?

i could make one, now.

yeeeesss pleaseeee omg

me too. since eps 9 i always skip his scene.

that's could be the case.
either way, the writer is totally mess up this drama. she make 2nd lead in 1st lead trope that she always made, and make viewers more into 2nd lead perspective.
well, so start up is ended up as her failure. too bad, because i usually a big fan of her dramas. :(

i just hate how the writer always make HJP suffers.
if he's the male lead, atleast in the end he will have a happy end.
that's the kdrama trope.
the male/female lead in kdrama : first suffers, then grow up and solve the problem, and became happy.
so atleast after the heavy rain, there comes the rainbow.
but if he's stuck as second lead, in the end he will not get anything.

i feel like the writer is either sadistic, or she actually make HJP as first lead.

as for now, i can't help but think that Han Ji Pyeong is actually the male lead.
cause it's just doesn't make sense that 2nd lead is the one who suffering the most.

right now, HJP is just remind me of Park Soo Ha (ICHYV).
1) he has the childhood past memories with the female lead. HJP is the same.
2) he always help the female lead without any hesitant. HJP is the same.
3) park soo ha is an orphan, and always lonely, never have real friend. HJP is the same.
4) park soo ha suffering because someone want to take revenge on him. and HJP now suffering because yongsan want to take revenge on him.
5) in ICHYV, at first, female lead liking the 2nd lead more. and park soo ha broken heart when he always sees them together. in Start Up, HJP always see them together in front of his eyes too, and he's heartbroken as well.

i won't lie, i really like the writer of this drama.
I can hear your voice is my ultimate favorite drama.
i also like Pinnochio, While you were sleeping, Dream high, Page turner, Prison playbook.

BUT,
what's wrong with her?
why she messed up Start Up so badly like this?
and if she really didn't mean to make HJP as first lead, why he's suffered the most?
like, HJP is an ORPHAN, he used to be POOR, he always LONELY, he can't get THE GIRL HE LIKE, he always help BEHIND THE SCENE like fairy godmother, and now SOMEONE WANT TO GET REVENGE ON HIM?
ARE YOU SANE, WRITER-NIM?

IF YOU REALLY INTEND TO MAKE HJP SUFFERS, AT LEAST MAKE HIM AS FIRST LEAD !

haha preach.
tbh in real life, i'm working in start up company. and the CEO is my sister.
me and my sister laughing so hard while comparing this drama to our real life company.
1) our CTO is young and good looking, but he's nowhere near as perfect as Do San was. like, he's obviously not that 'smart' to make a system in 3 days. and he's usually always have flat face. he looks more like Saha than Dosan.
2) our mentor / investor... nowhere as good looking and kind as Ji Pyeong T____T he's someone in his 40s and he's really strict about revenue.
3) my sister is not as lucky as Dal Mi lol. she works her ass off everyday as CEO, and she always sleep like 3-4 hours everyday.

yes and i actually really like NJH in dazzling. i totally like him that i even save some of his picture. but, i can't like NDS. i just simply didn't think he deserve to be the main lead. bad character, poor chemistry.

ikr, he's not actually living buddha. he's just a coward, and selfish. all he does is to benefited himself.

if that's what will they do, i'll drop this drama.
Dal Mi and Do San scene bored me to death. the only enjoyable thing when they're together is just when they're talking about the apps, the competition, and the teamworks. sorry but NJH and Suzy have like zero chemistry

seriously this drama is more enjoyable when they're focusing on start up. now i just hate the love triangle that hurt my HJP so much, and also hate Dosan character that only thinking about himself. he's so selfish.
