They make Tae sung's character weak and sickly, now he reminds me all these actors/idols with psychological disorders…
That is pretty much the reality of our world, because these people are protected from outside world they usually develop some arbitrary sense of reality than the reality itself, so when they are faced with life as it is they are troubled, it is a phenomenon pretty much everywhere.
God damn it, let us enjoy their cuteness, now we have to deal with whatever stuff they will put them through. Everyone is acting great here, just top notch
I really do not get why people are reacting so much about Africa's topic I mean I don't want to sound bad or anything…
Well this is a mixed problem, although I think it is mostly over reaction but I think the issue is still there. I'm pretty sure writers and PR definitely thought about this, they would either name a certain country or just make a generalization and just call it Africa. I think they wanted to be respectful and not single out a country maybe ?
I can understand why people have rated this show low, despite showing so much potential early in the show. It happens with a lot of other shows. The stress and struggle of characters shown are brutally real, and it is stressful for the viewer, most people bear enough stress in their life so they just want to relax and exit reality for an hour or two in series they watch. So lets be tolerant of each other, its no use to get angry over internet ratings and comments, just enjoy it or if not then let it go.
The finale was one of the nicer ones, as a whole it was a pretty good drama full of difficulties of life for characters, there were some lackluster episodes but it was definitely worth the watch.
Watched until ep 4 and it has a lot of red flags: drunk one night stand, early hidden relationship, the two married…
The drama has a flat story, nothing really exciting about it(which you see people complain here too much). What is pretty good about this though is how characters react to their problems, it feels too real sometimes and it right out gets stressful for the viewer. I personally enjoyed it very much, specially the middle part of it were very touching. If you want something entertaining like "Business Proposal"(also extremely good) this ain't it, if you want to ponder a little and question some life decisions , this is it.
So I came on here to see if it got any better. I dropped it around episode 7 or 8 because the leads lack of communication…
In each relationship there are two main counterparts, if one of them does some horrible thing the other one can not put all the blame on them, there is responsibility in both parties. If you see more you will see why the second leads cheated on their partners. Now Im not defending their cheating behavior and making excuses for them, what I'm saying is an action on the surface bares a lot of weight underneath it and relationship's dynamics are much more complicated than saying "oh you cheated you bad".
Yes cheating is an act of cowardliness but not because it is inherently bad, it is cowardliness because people are trying to escape their reality and project their fantasies outside of their responsibility domain that they know it would not cost them (at least in the short term). Give it a try with this view, you may have more sympathy for them cause they are more stupid and out of touch with themselves rather than being mischievous evil characters.
Yes thanks literally everyone I know is refusing to watch forecasting love and weather bc it is so bad as it is…
Thats understandable, one of Kdrama's big attraction has been the innocent/dreamy relationships. On top of that people usually watch stuff to take a break from reality. Something like "forecasting love and weather" is against both those. It is a phenomenal series with real life experiences in it but it is not the cup of tea of usual kdrama watcher. I hope they do more of these type of shows in the future.
Should I watch this? Is this any good? Seems to have a very bad rating on here for K-drama standards.
Depends, It is a mush up of problems people have in different relationships. The story is not the main attraction of the series, their reactions to difficulties are. If you had a long term relationship or are thinking about one I think you should watch this. In general a phenomenal series.
So lets be tolerant of each other, its no use to get angry over internet ratings and comments, just enjoy it or if not then let it go.
