I came here to write a review and realized almost everyone already said what I was thinking. The drama was surprisingly…
I understand your point, but I don’t quite agree. In my experience, many viewers actually complain that 16-episode dramas tend to feel too long or dragged out. Personally, I felt this drama kept a good pace and didn’t overstay its welcome. While the ending might not have tied up every detail perfectly, I appreciated that it avoided unnecessary filler and stayed engaging throughout. I think it really comes down to preference - some people want more closure, while others prefer a tighter story.
Came for the romance, got force-fed a buffet of tired drama tropes. At least the FL is so gorgeous she could single-handedly crash Chinese beauty standards, and the ML’s voice? Deep enough to keep me watching until the end.
Currently feasting on Ep 6 of Bon Appétit, Your Majesty and I’ve laughed more times than I can count in Spanish 😂! The way they worship every bite of her cooking is so over-the-top. It’s ridiculously funny!
I'm the type of watcher who usually refuses to watch anything rated below 7.5, but I decided to give this one a go for Lee Jae Wook because I truly adore his acting skills. Honestly, I had it on hold for a long time, but since Lee Jae Wook is the male lead, I had no more excuses to skip it.
In my opinion, I agree with others that the female lead lacks acting skills. Frankly, the male leads and the interesting plot are what saved this drama. For me, it's a solid 7.5.
The picky drama watcher has returned: I treat most cdramas like speed dates… but Love Between Fairy and Devil? That’s my one true soulmate binge. And yes, the rewatch has officially begun..
Okay, public service announcement for anyone still lurking in the comment section like a squirrel at a rave - ignore the negative reviews and just watch the drama. Trust your own eyeballs. I originally pressed play for the unique plot and, let's be honest, Choo Young Woo’s face (man looks like he walked out of a webtoon). But plot twist! Cho Yi Hyun stole the whole show. I came for the visuals, stayed for the acting. When she cried, I cried. When she laughed, I laughed. At one point I was like, ‘Am I emotionally synced with this woman?!’ She’s got main character energy with acting chops to match.
BUT don’t get me wrong Choo Young Woo nailed it too! I lost count of how many times I burst out laughing when he switched from the smooth Bae Gyeon U to chaotic Bong Su. The range?! Hilarious and impressive. Honestly, both leads killed it.
And let’s not sleep on the rest of the cast either. They all delivered like drama veterans on Kopiko. Every side character added flavor, heart, or comic gold. Not a weak link in sight.
Watch it, you’ll see what I mean. And then come back so we can scream about it together. You won’t regret it.
Ever since Alchemy of Souls, I’ve been waiting to see Lee Jae Wook take the lead again, and wow! He didn't disappoint! His performance completely captivated me. I couldn’t take my eyes off the screen whenever he appeared. Dear Hongrang is intense, mysterious, and downright chilling at times. I just binge-watched the whole thing, and I already know I’ll be rewatching it soon. The synopsis barely scratches the surface! This story unfolds fast, unpredictably, and with so much depth. And the OST? Absolutely stunning, every track fits the mood of the drama perfectly. It elevates every scene! Highly recommend!
I went into Family by Choice with zero expectations, and now I’m emotionally compromised. The plot? Addictive. One minute I’m laughing, the next I’m crying like I’m part of the family. 10/10 emotional damage, would recommend.
jiho over protecting gyeon-u is the cutest thing ever 🤣🤣
Yes!! I was wheezing when he tried to squeeze into bed with BGU like it was the most normal thing ever. Ultimate bodyguard mode: activated 😂 PJH really said “no personal space, only protection."
Who decided emotional devastation should be scheduled for Mondays and Tuesdays only?! The real villain here is the release schedule. We deserve compensation and daily episodes.
