He's cute. She's 13 years older but beautiful.

Loved the 1st episode, and I guess that if you will too, then you can safely watch the remaining 10;-)
EDiT: Just watched the final episode... FL of this drama is quite some FL:-) And I can very well imagine how would american version of this be, what kind of happy ending they would make:-) Even without it, I know how much weeping would koreans or chinese add. No one beats Japan.
(Well, perhaps only in skinship... The airport kiss was awful:)

"With such an oblivious character who can't read her own heart nor her surroundings, there is bound to be plenty of drama to ensue and that's exactly what this drama is."

Then there's BOUND to be a plenty of drama? If we have characters who don't even know what they feel and what they want, then what kind of drama CAN there be? Just a string of charades & shenanigans, the writer is excused from writing a proper drama, just collects paycheck but I also might be excused from watching. Thanks for the heads up, I'll skip this one.

So, you downloaded it?;-)

That's been there for 17 years, actually.

"The ML is a yandere, but on the soft side, as in he'd never harm the FL. He does let her live her life and doesn't force her into anything, but just wouldn't stop following her around!"

Also, he needs to keep following FL, because the writer is out of "fateful coincidences" which keep the two people meeting again and again.

Yeah. Plenty of all these. But try searching: "Calm FEMALE Lead". lol

Being considerably set against c-dramas, still I tried to give this one a chance, due to its promising, unique setting.
Although it has good looking poster and good looking leads and I was enjoying the 4K 2160p picture and the exteriors which looked quite pirotesque, unfortunatelly the show started to annoy me quite early. And that was when they first arrived on the island and everyone started speaking english (or what they consider it). Yeah, no surprise, NOT a fan of asians doing that. I don't care whatever reason they have for it. Please, stick with your native tongue. DROPPED.

Makes no sense. But, never mind, let's not forget it.

How come I think I know the lead actress when apparently I haven't watched anything else on her drama list?;-)
Aaanyways. Episode 3 caught my attention in more way than one.
The lead male character earned some points with me (even when beside-himself-drunk, first thing on his mind was to protect her?)
Then there was an actual clothes joke made in a C-DRAMA: not just having everyone wear horrendous clothes and say nothing about it ("Every programmer has a plaid shirt". Hilarious.)
They clearly showed that it's the people closest to you that you need to watch out for most (the friendly roommates were the ones to upload most of the online stuff) and they clearly showed that it was uncalled for and the most romantic gesture was to get rid of it (I would kiss him for the deleting program he made;-)
Either way I dropped this aftrer episode 8. They already got somehow together and the romantic excitement is completely gone. Also ML is not attractive.

Okay how come I think I know her when I have NOT seen her in anything before;-)

Also, why won't japanese speak japanese, among them japanese?
Don't they have their own words for "red carpet"?
Why do they insist on saying "retto karpetto" to each other??
NATIVE english speaker would not understand that.
WHO they're saying this for?

After full 3 episodes, I'm really looking forward for her to take the wig off. That fringe line is really hurting her look. Just get rid of it, you'll look hundred times better. Pitty we won't be able do the same for the MALE lead so easily;-)

I second that. I lived in Oslo, Norway for several months and while I planned to learn & use at least a few basic phrases in norwegian I literally never got to it, because the entire time I was there I have not met a single 1 person children included who would not talk to me in fluent english the instant they saw that I am a foreigner. They have no dubbing in their TV. Therefore, they learn english well pretty early in their lives, just from tv shows and movies. While that was many years back, I guess now in the age of internet, they still learn english somehow.
That being said, even knowing this, I kinda understand lossswierllos' rant:
"Why all other people, who are not Chinese, are so ugly? And why everyone in Finland speaks English?"
LOL I really had to smile reading this, because watching 3 episodes of this drama, you can't miss how all the chinese are petite & quiet and whenever there is a local he/she is a blonde not-a-looker, speaking english in kind of loud, contrived manner, seemingly also among each other. While I know they do speak english well there like I mentioned, it does kinda stand out for the viewer so I do understand lossswierllos' comment.
Practical explanation, they probably spoke like that for the camera. And the producers were not looking for the best acting & best looking people. Why outshine the main romantic couple;-) Other explanation which I read, is that they 99% hire the so-called "white chinese" for these bit parts, hence their generic accent, hinting nothing nordic. Because the country was Finland, they just picked any of them who were blonde.

On one of my usuals (registration needed), site that's been around for 15 years... Sorry I don't post links. Every time I did, I either got banned from MDL, or the links site got into problems and closed. Just know it's there, if you really try you'll eventually find it.

I don't know, with this drama. For me, marriage dramas are tedious. The only thing saving it, is some steamy affair (even though all the mdl moralizers will bash me for it:-) with bordering on r-rated scenes, LOL. So, I was bored out of my wits all through the 1st episode, then resolved that if there's not even a kiss by the end of the 2nd episode, I'll drop this. But, as if advised, nearing the 2nd epi the georgeous ML kisses both the women. And there is a scene in which he's got ruffled hair. I was not into him the whole time he had all is hair neatly combed up, but with the casually sticking out curls, I'm dying for him, LOL. So, I'm torn...... Episode 3: Dropped.

Never mind, I got other raws, they're not in sync with d-addicts subs but it probably doesn't matter, right from the start this is a boring drama. Only LOADS of r-rated scenes could save it LOL

Wow you're right he practically looks like his twin in this drama. Great plus point for watching this drama, because whod really want to watch anything philippino, lol. Better go for this!:-)

Well, very short and awkward, resulting in still being long, kind of thingy.
Guilty pleasure-wise, just because Stan Huang wears a goatee, does not really make him "the most sexy man in Taiwan". He basically looks just as lame as the other guy. Kissing is awkward in all early episodes, looks like obviously straight cast trying to make it work somehow, then suddenly episode 9 they really get into it. I admit they did deliver for the BL fans, it's just I was not really excited because I did not get to ship the couple, first. Might be my fault.
I can't say much about the story, the whole "cook male lead" or "origami lead" is not my favorite, and I admit fastforwarding through the whole thing, looking forward to be done with it still more than anything else. There is a few antics involving 2 guys competing for 1 main lamb in the middle (epi 8) when it's bordering on slapstick comedy but I can't really say that I would care what/ever happens. In the end I did mark this "Completed" but I did not care to rate it. I'm not watching the special (marked "Not Interested").
