I am not surprised, this was a fantastic episode all around. I just hope they can keep the sizzle going and not suddenly veer into a crime drama, as we have seen before.

Not me watching the conversation about him giving her his time 10x over. Why is this such a dopamine hit show?

Anybody else skipping through scenes already? It has so much filler. But I love the main couple, and the Stewardess Story.

Somehow I find this very realistic. (I watched the abbreviated version.) I know so many older women who have endured stuff from their family, and because it wasn't physical, never realize it was abuse. Or because they are embedded in a network/culture that thinks submitting to your husband and his family is expected, they don't see these behaviours as horrible, but expect it.
They learn to love with it, for the sake of the children. And play nice after a divorce and might avoid ever dating again, because they were in fact traumatised.

I don't think "woke" is what you think it is. They are certainly for women having all the choices.

Hard agree. He was irredeemable early on, and not your average bad guy to others/circumstances made him tough guy, but he is at least good to her. It's not even a morality chain trope or a good-only-for-you trope.
Dude was a full blown psychopath, and she was just his goal, not the woman he b loved...

I haven't finished it yet, but the whole structure reminds me of Till The End Of The Moon, where the main couple also does their Lovestory over and over until they learn a lesson in some sort of Buddhist allegory.

I am three quarters through, and this is my thought exactly. Is this a Buddhist allegory as well? Will the ML do this over and over until he finally realizes how to behave?

Same! 😁

Actually no, they should not. Since their genes are too similar, the recipients body isn't able to process the blood of their close relative correctly. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfusion-associated_graft-versus-host_disease

I am currently watching "Warm On A Cold Night" and there the ML is a real Himbo, tries to look dangerous, but is actually a really soft, really dumb puppy. Literally, he is half man, half wolf or something.

Agreed, I was surprised it wasn't on this list, since Hero (my personal favourite) and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon were.

I will definitely be introducing this into English slang as well. Think of me when you hear it in the cafeteria... 😁

Wow, what an extensive list. That must have been a ton of work and nearly killed my browser, I opened so many tabs.

Haha, I am an IKEA enthusiast, and I find it funny how much of their furniture, sofas especially, seem to end up on sets.
Kakafukaka was one of the weirdest shows I ever watched, they could have called it Dysfunctional Houseshare or something.

Yeah, there is some very clumsy exposition scenes here, I noticed that too. It feels like even the writers were bored with the mystery solving part of the drama

I actually quite like it, and I usually click away when it's a crime solving drama. I find their chemistry is so soft and sweet, and I love how their relationship develops in secret.

I am a bit worried for the love triangle, that has already started. I mean Hwan basically admitted also having a crush on her as a child, as did her fiancé.

It's slow at times, but I also watch European period dramas, so I enjoy the slow development.

I mean, techniqually you can click through the tags, but there is a lot of times when the tags apply to one or two episodes...

Yeah, I did. I just don't know when I will get around to watch. I wish there was a function where you can type in a mood and MdL spits out a drama. Like "green flag guy romance" or "problematic revenge to love story". Lol.

Thankyou again for this list. I have only watched Bad Romeo from these. Somehow even if its a romantic drama, the Thai shows always bring in the melo and the dramatic, I can't watch two Thai dramas in a row.
