I feel that Tiffany Hsu and Edward Chen being the leads here, we can pretty much disregard the current description of the drama...there is DEFINITELY going to be more to it!

I have. He is amazing in that but I think it's a completely different role to this.

I was really struggling with Song Deok Ho's role in this. He plays the derpy cop well, but it just seemed like a criminal waste of his talent (pun intended 🤭). But ep 12 puts me right back on track! We are slowly seeing the layers laid bare.
This show seems to me to be improving with each ep.

Now if Baek Dong Joo could just be allowed to show a bit of 'grown-up' (i.e.late 20s adults) chemistry with Kim Tae Hee, then I'll be satisfied.

Oooh thanks for that because yeah. I don't! 😆

I think maybe a little bit fluffy, but not to the max 😆. IMO the themes around female relationships and issues, are too rarely portrayed in dramas, at this point in time, for it to be considered as completely fluffy.
It is gently done though so it's a VERY satisfying watch.

Thanks for that info. 🤔 I might have to start L&P because this and SAHPH are my absolute 'go too' at the moment!

If you haven't watched it "Reset" is amazing (though not a romance)

So agree! I am not usually interested in royal court dramas/costume dramas/historical, but this one hooked me completely, and I think it's ALL down to the female relationships.

Totally off topic but I love Son Hwa Ryung's (Ji Wan's) voice. I could listen to her all day...

I've noticed that too. Got me thinking maybe all the shows I'm finding disappointing, (e.g. Jinxed at First) might have the same Music Director 🤷 but I'm too lazy to research

I'm putting those boots down to product placement. Either that or they're a late appearing character (see Ep14) foreshadowing a plot twist 🤣

I wish this show had been written with Kang Chae Ri as the central character. At least then the title would've been appropriate.
Not hating it as is, but so hoped for more...

It's fine on Viki. And they've replaced the dud on amazon

Actually the lab theory has been debunked. Completely. It is not lab created. It has been thourougly investigated and proved, (through current best scientific practice), to be a zoonotic virus (likely from bats) that spread from the Wuhan wet market.

Sorry but I'm going to be a bit pedantic...the virus scene was a corona-virus. SARS and MERS are both corona viruses (along with Covid-19) both of which have killed many in SK. In light of that, IMO, the virus scene was not really prophetic nor remarkable at that time.

Early love triangle and breakup that allows for the leads to get together midway through

Except for a scene stealing pair of white boots, that even Lee Da Hee can't pull off 🤣

Everyone who hasn't watched it yet, just SKIP EP 14. There is NOTHING new in this ep. (It's all repeated scenes of previous ep) The writers must be on a break.

Thanks

Is this a melodrama? I love fem centred dramas and I love the cast, but the bombastic, over the top, melodramatic music, is making it very much less enjoyable for me. (Trying to decide whether to continue, as I really don't enjoy melodramas)
