Yes,CITT wasted an excellent cast esp.Park Hae Jin with its ending

Thanks.I started on this and an upto Ep 3..Ha suk Jin is acing his role as the cleaning deity!His scenes in the show are the best part of the show and his dialogues on cleaning and its life lessons are quite touching..

Female characters seem to be not that great upto now .will continue to see as to how it develops ..

Quite happy to see this relaxing show!

Totally agree..Father is strange and My Golden Life are like the best Kdrama family shows in my opinion..I have started Marry me now quite late but find it quite a warm,charming show on its own..

Regarding AYHT ,I knew I would like this show from the first 5 mins and had to deliberately stop watching it as the anticipation levels would be quite high for next episodes.. It is definitely a ground-breaking Kdrama for sure. and am happy I will agonize only for 2 more weeks..

Have been meaning to check out "Circle"by the way but am put off by many comments that the ending isn't complete..

I would like to but the comments are making me wary of speedily bingeing this..So much happens in this show's 1 Hr!! I happened to watch one of the eps of "Marry me now" after this and felt such a stark difference in pace -and i
quite like Marry me now

One of those shows that seems to have developed a HUGE fandom..

Will check and see how it goes..

I liked your post except the Gender bender part..

I agree that "To the beautiful you" wasted its superb source material "Hana kimi" and was quite uninspired .I like "Coffee Prince "a lot ..Here are some shows you can watch and check if you don't like then still

1. Sungkyunwan Scandal
2.A well raised daughter
3. Hana Kimi (2007 Japanese Version)
4. Painter of the wind (quite melodramatic!)

Or they just like Lee Min ho

I agree that people may have issues with the show (I dropped it at first in Ep 1 as LMH resembled a villain more than a hero -then picked it again)

However,as per me,the OST is one of the major highpoints of the show and the OST MVs actually brought me back to watching the show

Agreed with you..If a show deserved a marriage as a Happy ending,this is it!

I agree on the other couples but the lead couple are superb and serve their screentime..

Maybe ,we get a season 2 with all the other couples also getting more screentime

I think the underdevelopment of Secretary Kim's character was due to the length of the show (have not read the webtoon tho..).This show deserved at least 20/24 episodes ..

Another show that comes to mind is "Cruel City" .While a wholly different genre,I felt the higher number of episodes(for a cable channel-JTBC) gave much more depth to the story and characters.

Cheese in the trap was great till they decided to make it bad.

You could also check out "scholar who walks the night" where I felt the show adapted the webtoon quite well..

Or you could rewatch City Hunter/Healer / I am sam

Totally .This show saved its best moments for the second half..It is rare a story doesn't feel dragging by the time it reaches near its end..

I remember something similar happened with " something in the rain" we were getting poor quality subs wuth huge delay and then the show landed on Netflix.

Think the same will happen here too.

I am planning on starting this as the theme looks quite interesting and KBS seems yo be giving pretty strong romcoms nowadays .How is it?

I think it works both ways.I remember quite many shows where the actresses were older than the male leads e.g.. the man who fell from stars,legend of the blue sea,Chicago typewriter,Hospital Ship,The producers etc. I am sure there are many more examples like this.

Yes,sometimes the age diff is quite heavy,as in this case,but considering this was to be a global show with lot of English dialogue,they felt LBH fit the bill as he has appeared in Hollywood movies and has also good English speaking capabilities (compared to other Korean actors who could be possible choices)

I am really glad i waited before starting this. Am at Ep 8 and the show is really fast paced and raises a lot of questions on humanity and how humans actually are. Strangely ,Namsin III appears to be the most humanistic character on the show

Seo Kang Joon is superb in this as Namsin III and I am also liking the second lead character a lot.So bong redeemed herself quite well after the initial money minded characterisation

The writers have taken a cold theme of robots and infused life in it,which is really commendable .The feeling is same as when i saw Steven spielberg's AI which was also about an android boy's love for his human mother and his quest to become human..

Am finally upto Ep 14 and am glad i waited before watching it in small spurts of 1-2 eps

The second half of the show is superlative in my opinion.First half gave you a budding romance with comic goofiness continues and the second half give you emotional heft with many of the questions answered. The goofiness continues ,but is much sharper.. The kid actors were so good in ep 11 and 12 with their acting !!

This is a landmark show for both PSJ and PMY.The stars have just aligned for this show and the writers and director have to be congratulated for this.I see myself rewatching this quite a nimber of times in the future.One of the Top 3 shows of 2018 for sure..

Great to hear and i feel the same way too.I just felt she brought great variety to both portrayals - you almost feel there are 2 different actors playing the characters..
