The whole sleepwalking storyline with the FL feels kind of off. Seriously she’s wandering around the city, talking to the ML, entering door codes, making phone calls, falling asleep and waking up… all at once. It’s just way too much for one person in that state, hard to really believe. And then Kim Bum supposed to be an important character but he barely gets any screen time, like just a moment. Pretty disappointing.
I don't care how many heckling comments there are. Byeon Woo Seok has returned in a big way after two years. Anyone familiar with IU's acting career knows that she wisely chooses roles that end in success, and that will be the case this time as well.
This drama is a typical "slice of life," and you can feel it after just the first two episodes. The first episode is essentially a pure slice of life – the characters' quiet everyday lives. The atmosphere reminds me a bit of My Liberation Notes. The cinematography and the village atmosphere are a huge plus. At times, you feel like you're right there with the characters, amidst the fields, silence, and cicadas. The story of first love is also beautifully portrayed. Nothing forced, everything very natural – shy glances, first touches, kisses. It was a very warm experience to watch. PJY plays a similar character here to *Our Unwritten Seoul*, where she also has a hearing problem. And FL is likeable, a bit eccentric, and has a lot of charm. I have a really good feeling about this. It promises to be a calm, atmospheric, and very "real-life" story.
I honestly feel like some people in the comments are acting as if this was their very first BL from GMMTV ever 😅
I don’t think this series is anything outstanding or groundbreaking — but it’s definitely not bad either. It’s just a solid, easy and enjoyable watch. No huge hype, but also no unnecessary drama.
And honestly, Joong and Dunk themselves said before that they wanted to act in a series where they play police officers and they actually got that chance. You can really see it on screen.
Actingwise, they’re doing well, but their biggest strength is their chemistry. They’re one of those GMMTV pairs where everything feels natural. There’s no forced fanservice, no awkwardness, and they don’t look stiff or uncomfortable in front of the camera.
Even the kissing scenes don’t feel tense or staged it’s just normal, relaxed interaction between them.
So yeah, this isn’t a masterpiece. But as a pair, JoongDunk really deliver and they’re genuinely very nice to watch.
Regarding the song "Ave Maria," it could have been controversial to use such a song in SUCH a scene, but I think it was a deliberate move. It's a deliberate contrast—a symbol of purity and sacredness juxtaposed with a brutal violation of boundaries. It introduces dissonance, emphasizing how deeply Shu Ling's inner fragility is being violated, showing how brutally his innocence was destroyed. See how they even use colors in the final scene to illustrate the contrast between them: Black—darkness and destruction—everything Fan Xiao represents. White—truth and innocence—Shu Ling.
I can't believe he managed to pretend to be someone else for so many years. And documents? And offices? School? There are family records in China. Didn't anyone ever check his ID? And why this fake death, and with a fancy tombstone, to boot? How did they arrange it without a body? Who was maintaining it? Why did he lie? If he wanted to distance himself from her, there were easier ways. So many questions and only four episodes.
lee Min Ho has been in some trash projects lately first it was when the star gossip and now this
Excuse me? He did star in a lesser drama, of course. But before that, he starred in Pachinko, which still enjoys good reviews, plus the series received Emmy nominations, so let's not exaggerate.
Are the people high on drugs here? Telling me to be respectful towards Gogoallaout who was first disrespectful…
@NewStar It's best to block him, that's what I did, I'm not interested in hateful posts from some frustrated person/troll who hasn't even seen the movie and has the most to say.
