Being the typical kdrama trope isn’t the issue, poorly pacing it is. It’s extremely lazy and yes we do see…
In other words, confirmed by people that agree with you. That is not confirmation. And haven’t you learned that 1 episode isn’t enough to judge how a story are being told? This is just a typical reaction from someone who wants to control a story. And it’s okay to feel that way, but you might miss out of a good story when you can’t just go with the Dow and see where it actually brings you.
And to many people, the beginning was very believable, and we were told enough of the important stuff: Life became shitty and she needed a fresh start. It’s the story of her new life, thank god they didn’t detail everything on how shitty it was. It isn’t actually important.
-Where it’s based from doesn’t excuse it’s lazy pacing, especially if it was given context in the webtoon…
You are really invested in everybody’s meanings, when you just didn’t like the first episodes. You might just try to let it go, take a step back and breathe a little... We get you criticism, you have repeated it numerous of times.
What's the reason for a huge discrepancy between IMDb rating (7.3, 21K votes) and this (8.7, 36K)? I'm on ep5…
Who knows which rating are most reliable, in the end it is all a matter of taste. But the main difference between MDL and IMDB, is that here it is mainly kdrama fans, and on IMDB it is all kinds of people.
People act like that, when they don’t really understand themselves and gets frustrated. And a good story doesn’t…
It’s not an excuse, its called life experience and understanding what actually was told in this story. Flip it around: Kiyoi deserved to meet someone like Hira, so he could change.
Everyone's saying how it was so good, I, on the other hand, thought it was bad.The way kiyoi treated hira throughout…
There were a lot of reasons, mostly insecurity about his own feelings and Hira. He was a very lonely boy who everyone used because they thought he was good looking and special. And he is very young, at an age where you are trying to figure out yourself, and feelings are just chaos. That can make you lash out and do/say things that looks wrong in the eyes of others. Every grown up has their moments when they look back at their teenage self and think “oh my god, why did I say or do that”. And without proper guidance from parents, they won’t have any support and advice that can tell them what is right or wrong
I'm 100% missing whatever appeal this drama seems to have for everyone. Kiyoi was just a jerk the entire time…
People act like that, when they don’t really understand themselves and gets frustrated. And a good story doesn’t always need to have characters you identify with or understand right away. But watching and trying to understand these kind of stories, will also teach you something about human emotions and how difficult they can be.
I read your review after I watched this drama, and I 100% agree with you! I even gave it 10 stars, and I am very strict with my 10’s!
So often people judge characters very superficially, and miss all the complexities. I loved when everything switched and we really got to see both sides.
