I feel like the only one who doesn't mind this drama being chopped. It was funny but honestly I didn't feel anything…
I totally agree with you and allyson.
Also, I think the main problem was that, from the second episode until the ninth the storyline barely just stand in one place ang go nowhere. I felt like it stucks between the typical "second male&main female lead's lovestory improved a lot, let's do someting with the other guy, and make it complicated", but it was really slow. The producers probably want to do the main movements in the last 6 episode, but it's just not work, because the characters, the acting and the chemistry just wasn't enough to keep "alive" the show, until the end.
I can totaly understand why they drop this show. The plot is not that weak, it was actually interesting in the beginning, but then, from the second episode just nothing happened, and the actors/actresses are not that good (yet) to keep the interest. Also, i think the main characters are the worst in this show, they are so plain, and childish, i just realized that, the only reason why i'm still watching it, are the other characters, and their storylines (like Hye Young and Big, or An Ma Nyeo and the President).
I feel sorry for this show, because it seems promising in the beginning... :(
Oh god, i am a very imaginative person, and i love unique plots, but i made a "wtf?!" face constantly during the first episodes. This is a total craziness, and i can't decided that in a good way, or a bad way...
I am biased against LDW, so i will probably watch the next week's episodes, but i have a strange feeling that this drama is just too weird for me. We will see.
Pretty impressive starting :)
It already has a unique feeling, i love this "craziness" in the (camera's) shooting and also in the ost, so i am looking forward to next week's episodes.
Ummm, well, the short synopsis is actually not so convincing.
I also didn't watch or know anything special about the original one (just read its synopsis too), but the cast is very promising, so it's worth trying :)
(I have a feeling that i will feel sorry about the character of Choi Jin Hyuk, because i like him more than Jang Hyuk, and second leads (almost) always sucks in dramas... but fortunately i am not a fortune-teller, so it can be good in the end. :)
Really... I am very patient about character-progressing, but we are almost in the half, and Ah Mo Nae still can't grow up, and use her brain before she taking a step.
Are there a group of angry demonstrator, who ask for the Chairman of Ciel? Of course, the best idea is walking in front of them, and say that (not literally) "I am the one, whom you want to throw some eggs"... And then hoping for the prince with bright armour for saving her.
I want to believe that, she has the ability of leeding the hotel but only what she done for the hotel till now, is depending on others OR talking/doing things without thinking, and then crying when she realized that, she was wrong.
Ugh... just stand out girl, for yourself and for your inheritance, and finally, USE YOUR BRAIN.
(Sorry for the novel, but the character's behaving is just irritating me so much, i had to write it down, because of the peace of my soul :D)
By the way, i love the story, such an interesting plot! :)
Just one tip: Don't write a review until the very last episode. It's completely unnecessary, 'cause
1) REVIEW and writing your FIRST IMPRESSIONS are not the same (neither the "thoughts in the middle of the drama" thing)
2) People will click to the "Not helpful" button (for a good reason)
I gave it a try just because of Park Min Young (i really enjoyed her acting at the City Hunter), but i don't think i will watch it. The first (2) episodes were actually boring for me (whom not really find interesting the law and corruption themes, but i tought why not give it a try). It is a little bit "too deep" in its theme for me (maybe lot of people will like it for that very reason). :)
I know, the "real" storyline is just started now, but I also find this "have amnesia and then facing the dark past" cliché tiring too.
But the cast seems great, the main leads act very well, it was pleasure to see theirs acting. :)
Geez, i will miss this drama so much, it was refreshing, funny as hell but i also cried sometimes like a baby... It was just about (real, and yes, imperfect) LIFE.
After the first 4 episode, it still couldn't convince me of that i have to keep watching this drama. I'm sad about…
Thanks for the recommendations, I will watching this week's episodes, but i think the same as goldenmellow, it look like this drama is just not for me.
I accept it, but keep my eyes on the reviews after the drama ended, probably the starting is weak (for me and my taste) but it will improve and become really good in the end. :) I'm always optimistic about it.
But for you guys, have fun while watching it! :)
Also it looks like, the producers just can't decided how is the main male leads personality like, (not in the past, but the present) at one scene he's lame and actually changed nothing since past and at the other situation he's totaly cruel and cold hearted. I understand that, he has a heartbreak, and feels a lots of anger for her, but man, the gap is too big between the two personality, and he just looks like a schizo.
(Or is it all planned for the layers of his character, but it just doesn't work for me...)
After the first 4 episode, it still couldn't convince me of that i have to keep watching this drama. I'm sad about it, because i love the main leads' previous dramas, and their acting, but the the story evolving really slowly and happened almost the same emotional "ding-dong" thing in this few episodes between the leads. I can't find it funny either. :(
I will watch the next two episode, i gave this drama one more chance, but actually i am quite disappointed. :(
I was curious who plays the Umbrella Man. At first sight his features reminded me So Ji Sub a little bit.
I found him, but don't know anything about him (other roles?), anyone else? :)
