This was a weirdly funny and interesting drama. I loved the ending too and at how it all came full circle. I've come to accept that whenever a show on MDL has a low rating, the show is actually good. If you liked Kill Me, Heal Me, or just into serial killer dramas, give this one a try. Although KMHL did a better job at displaying and explaining Dissociative Identity Disorder there, than in here. One thing though, U-Know's character was just quite useless in some situations. Like the character went into the army. Did he not learn ANY basic fighting skills on how to protect himself? He was blind sided so much in here.
Once they incorporate "Jane's and Petra's" friendship after everything they went through and don't make Petra overbearing (She was my favorite character from the US version) then I'm set. Kim Mi Kyung would've been a great addition as Halmeoni too.
Damn, but Zhao Lin really needs to break out of these "stone faced/cold" male lead roles. But he loves cats in this one and cats have GOT to make this man at least crack a proper smile right? So...yay.
Youth dramas are my guilty pleasure, so I really enjoyed this. Plus it had in 3 of my favorite actors. To the average watcher, this was basically a drama about nothing, that turned into a drama about coffee to architecture, then back to coffee. It was a simple slice of life romance with no love triangles, no misunderstandings, no love rivals, no break ups, no arguing. Nothing and a sexual tension that stretched all the way to the last 2 episodes. This is the EASIEST youth drama you could ever watch. Come for the friendships and Guo Jun Chen being adorable. There is one scene where he discovers alcohol for the first time and you'll die from the cuteness of it.
TV gods, if you can hear me, give us a drama with Wan Peng and Zhang Mao Huai as the leads. They looked so good together and had such a sweet friendship chemistry. I want to see them as lovers.
It was kind of like the Pinoy version of the Thai BL drama The Moment. It was simple and light. I liked Kaloy from Boys Lockdown and glad he got his starring role. The leads had a nice chemistry going on too.
The most random drama I've ever watched. The villain was given away from the first episode too. The end also doesn't make sense because since her 20 year old self in the parallel universe died saving him and her original 20 year old version went back to it's own time line, how the hell can he wait for her for 20 years? Did the timelines merge when they touched hands in the blue room? If that's the case, wouldn't she age up too like him? Because it just looked as if she went back from where she left off at Uni as a 20 year old, while he looks to be in his 40's with his paint on mustache. And then there's the twist of him being the "hand" that was helping them get back to the other world. So the end is basically a 40 year old man and his 20 year old bride finding each other again. There was no follow up to Li Yitong either, so since her best friend doesn't remember her, we're to assume she died in a collapse too then.
This is maybe the only Thai drama that isn't BL or horror, that I watched in one sitting. I usually find them either boring or the overacting & screaming makes me drop it after a couple episodes. But this one, I really enjoyed it. Note, I've only watched the Japanese version of this drama and loved that one, so I can only go by that comparison.
PRO: I liked the female lead in this one as I did with the J-drama. She was adorable and looked like a little doll, but her laugh was annoying. CON: The male lead in here was so boring and plain. They dressed him so bland and I hated his hairstyle. When the work group were in scenes together, he tended to just blur in the background among them. ML in J-drama was pretty good there. PRO: Nat owned the second lead character. He was so awesome in the role. He brought the humor. Even though I still felt no SML syndrome in either versions, Nat's version is my favorite of the two. CON: I still hate the best friend for what she did. PRO: The co-workers were more lively and funnier in this version. CON: I honestly didn't feel much chemistry with the leads, like I did in the j-drama. They were cute, but she honestly had more chemistry with the SML, even though we know that wasn't going to go anywhere. CON: Male lead was an idiot for mistaking the best friend in here for female lead. His childhood friend is full Thai when they were younger, but she grew up to be a Westerner? LOL, he even jokes about how dumb he was in a later episode.
CONCLUSION: It was word for word with the j-drama, just that this version fleshed out the best friend's story more with her mother. It was funnier, but the sweet moments were better with FL & SML.
Okay there is a part two up on Youtube that explains everything as to why the male lead is basically mentally unstable and explains the fish. The story KIND of gets better in the second half. Okay, disgregard. It doesn't get better. The most ridiculous kidnapping attempt happens that somehow makes up for all the bad shit her husband did to her and they lived happily ever after. Ain't no way in hell I would've stayed with this guy.
This was hilariously bad and if you actually think about it, the mother here was the true evil and not the male lead or his family. His father was actually trying to save her from her mother, that's why he bought the female lead from her. Anyways, can you imagine what she will tell her kids?
"Hey kids, your evil grandmother sold me to your Pa's family to pay off hospital debts and to support her spending habit. I was forced into a marriage with him. I didn't like your Pa at first because he was an overbearing asshole. He didn't physically abuse me, but he liked pulling me around, being all up in my face and he choked me that one time. It was nice, very 50 shades of grey-ish. Oh there was this one time your aunt tried to frame me too. She's a bitch, you're not going over to her house. Then one day he showed me a hint of kindness and BOOM, my nether regions tingled. I was hooked. One night, I bought him some fish and he freaked the fuck out, almost dislocating my hip on the kitchen table. He never told me what Nemo did to him. Must be bad. He's a psycho, but I love him. Oh wait, did I tell you guys about the random love rival who was my HIGH SCHOOL ENGLISH TEACHER, that finally tracked me down and was in love with me? Your Pa got very angry that night when he saw him and treated me like shit too, but I was in love. After all of that, my dumbass still ran after him, we finally had rough, angry sex and you guys were born. The end. "
It was a cute and funny show, but the plot was kind of ridiculous. I feel like in the real world, no one would really care about the twin thing, like how everyone and the school were blowing it out of proportion, but at least that conflict ended realistically. I'm also so tired of c-dramas making the female leads act like 12 year olds and dress like they're 7, instead of just making them mature. I have no problem with acting cute in relationships, but gah, if I had to be her boyfriend, I would've gotten tired of her after a while. I did like the ending though where the FL was the one who had to win back the ML's heart. All in all, it was a cool drama to pass time. I imagine there's a clause in Luo Zheng's contract that states there must be a twin plot line in whatever drama he does.
I like Hwang Jung Eum, but she tends to just shout in almost all of her dramas with a screechy voice. I did enjoy her in Mystic Pop Up Bar and Kill Me ,Heal Me though.
It was 10% dialogue and 90% of them yelling at each other, but my god, this shit was FUNNY. It might be up there with Waikiki as far as Korean comedies go, for me. I love it when Oh Yeon Seo plays eccentric characters. (I.E) Like her character in Korean Odyssey. One was nuts and the other was angry as HELL!!! Can you imagine their kids? Anyways, the ending was crap though.
1. It's a very funny romance. 2. It was also VERY annoying. 3. Bai Lu always has great chemistry with her male counterparts, but I just didn't feel it here with them. It literally felt as if they were acting and sometimes she looked uncomfortable when she was kissing Zhao Lin or when he picked her up. She didn't have that comfortable chemistry, like she had with Leo in Love Is Sweet. Zhao Lin on the other hand has been playing the same type of character in all his dramas and I'm pretty much bored of it. He's been type casted so hard. The best friends had the better chemistry. Hell even her parents had better chemistry. 4. Her parents were awesome, by the way. 5. I loved the male lead's sister and her son. 6. Male lead's best friend was annoying and childish, but I liked that all the love rivals just became one big family of friends. 7. Some scenes felt like they were missing. The editing seemed off. 8. The first half of the drama drags and it picks up at episode 13. 9. Her birthday mishap could've simply been solved by him just saying, "Hey babes, the paps are here. They're annoying. Don't come." 10. The last four episodes gave off BOF vibes by bringing in another love rival that did NOTHING for the story, but only to bring in unnecessary conflit. 11. It was an okay watch. It might be someone's cup of tea.
Someone...tel me if I should watch this :( It was on my plan to watch but the two things throwing me off are 1)…
It's a pretty good watch. The leads may not "officially" get together until the final couple of episodes of the series, but they were a whole ass couple throughout the series and just didn't know it. LOL. They were just really stubborn. Yes there is a time skip at the end, but it's not that bad. There is also a special epilogue episode on YouTube with them with their kids. Last time I watched it wasn't subbed as yet, but should be by now.
This was a really great drama. It's different from all the k-dramas I'm used too and reminded of an American show. I LOVED the comedy in this too. It was refreshing and realistic. With that being said, my favorite ship did not sail and now I'm pissed. Bah!!! It also needs a season 2 because lots of the plot still felt unfinished. Also, MY SHIP DID NOT SAIL AND I NEED THEM BACK!!!! ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
