Maann, they're going all out❤️ **ups, all in? x"D .. Don't they?!!?
*squeeeeeee
It was the longest kiss scenes I've ever watched (as far as I remember) & the balcony kiss is even hotter than their already so hot one x"P
Def one of the best (read: hottest) kiss scenes & not only from 2018 (read: ever)

When every single ep feels like an art, this is a beautiful thoughtful drama with wonderful osts & magnificent scenes. I don't need to hear other ppl's opinion to convince me otherwise, just appreciate how beautiful this drama is & how simple yet meaningful they are, they've made me feel so many emotion. Where else could we find a beautiful, calm & poetic drama like this one does?

**just finished watching ep 10 raw btw & that ending had me dying & squealing so hard <333 omoo (continue in spoiler below).

People who complains about them being awkward when they first met should see it tbh, it was the characters who supposed to be like that. The acting is on point & production quality is top notch.
Ep 10 scenes were shot almost at the same time when ep 1 was taken, but you can see how different they are & their built up chemistry seriously were flow seamlessly, well done show.

Strangely, I liked this drama more & find them more interesting than MoA & Sky Castle. Everyone's different, I guess x'D. It's not without a flaw though (well logically speaking they have many), it's just.. I find them more addictive than the later.

True, it's my rule #1 too, never buy into such rating/comment before we try it ourselves. just watch those who catch your interest the most as you can always drop it if you don't like it :D

They're a slow burning/beautiful romance with a heartwarming/bitter sweet feeling underneath.
It may not be everybody's cup of tea but don't let the negative feedback misguides you.

This drama has received a ridiculous amount of hate comment since the very beginning, even before they're aired. From the age gap pairing, PBG-SHK pairing because of their real life closeness & now other drama biased fans has been targeting them like crazy too.
I find ppl just love to drop a general negative feedbacks like it's boring it's cliche etc which I doubt if they're even really watched it/ put their mind into it (some from ppl who rated them as 1, some from ppl who doesn't even have them on their cw list, some from unreliable & biased new user, etc)

Just don't mind them & try it yourself to know.
As for me, so far I find this is a very thoughtful drama where there's always this hidden meaning in every little scenes they shown & I love it.

There's a reason why this drama had a stable breakthrough rating in SK & one of the few drama which license has been sold in over than 100 countries, which imo it is a very well deserved one.
(Even for me, who never buy into such a hype drama)

The most ridiculous comment I've seen & it's an irony that you're even proud of it

Very true, I'm almost choked up watching that scene, they're smiling but it's a very sad scene.
Ep 8 gave me so much feels!!

Agree, I'm glad they're getting a rave reviews & ratings they
deserve in SK, from the people that matters to them.
(I'm watching them live & their lining ads are seriously crazy.)

This is a beautifully made heartwrenching romance drama I haven't seen for a while, a top notch production quality all around, well done.

My tears are welling up watching ep 7, beautiful & heartwrenching ep, a great built up for a tense & angst moment to come.
Idk if it's just me but I find this drama always had this underlying sadness & calm even when it's their happiest moment they shown, they always give me this bittersweet feelings & that makes the scenes felt richer & beautiful to me.

The way I see it they're not competing against eachother though because they're aired in a total different time slot, MOA at 9pm & Sky Castle at 11 pm. So I don't think if Skycastle ends it would have an impact on MOA ratings.

Not really feeling it on ep 1 (my first reaction was "these rich peoples are seriously crazy" X'D), but things are getting way more interesting by ep 2.
JTBC should've make this kind of drama way more often, it's their specialty I guess, loving Misty & this one.
Oh, but I wonder why they have a comedy/black comedy as their tag? Satirical, dark, suspense & melo are a more proper one to me, they're living a very sad life, really, I won't even last a day if I had to lived that kind of life they're living, lol. I love the twins & twins mom the most here (minus the dad, so far)

Very good, one of the best airing for me, it's hilarious but a heartfelt one too, I enjoy watching it so much

I love it!
Loving the pace & how beautiful this drama is.
Watching this drama is like reading a beautiful poem. Some ppl might feel bored since it isn't their thing, but some will appreciated the warm, beautiful feelings & those hidden meaning underneath.
They had their own color that differentiate this drama from the rest other drama, which's something that I adore.

Also, did you notice? This drama is dealing with people prejudice against a relationship between a mature woman & a younger man which at the sametime it's something that this drama has to suffered too just because they had this noona romance tag as their theme (there's a lot of hateful comment before the drama started & still see some bitter comment because the way they're dealing with it is against the norm they've known).

Anw, that new ost played on ep 5 last part, is it from SaltnPepper? I hope it won't become another long torture waiting for an ost released from SaltnPepper like the other one *sigh, yes, you! **sideeyeing Encounter

Both great osts, release them faster please, tvn

I second Amy, Nine is her very best work as it has the best written plot & characters, one of my all time fav. W sadly has turned ridiculous at the later half. And Alhambra had the weakest pilot among the 3 (& still is so far for me).
Imo this writer tends to make her main characters feels like a two dimentional one ( lacks depth) like the one in W & this one (so far) (probably because the plot writing is already too complicated enough, lol) but Nine had everything, characters depth, engaging story, heartwrenching romance & mindblowing plot twist which isn't ridiculous, so I gave it a 10 out of 10 too.

When every single ep always tops the previous one & their next ep preview even looks more amazing, I died, this drama is seriously, crazily good, so funny, so heartfluttering, so fun to watch, fav! I had the biggest smile from ear to ear everytime I watched this drama, my cheeks still hurt from all the laughing, am having a blast, thank you writer nim!!

Don't worry, with this writer there'll be someone died & resurrect again, even the main lead character. There'll be some reset point within the drama too, trust me, I think I've watched too many drama from this writer, so maybe that's why I find it isn't mind blowing as watching it for the first time, kinda formula-ish :P

Ahh I see, thank you for your insights.
I love classical music/drama (with YAI which's a plus) so I think Secret Affair is a clear safer bet than SITR then (besides I want my tablet to be safe & sound too, lol).
Thanks!

Thank you for your comment, now I got the gist of what Jienna might want to point out, although I still think that their concept one way or another are the same but they took a different approach.

But actually, you've made me want to watch that drama too, lol, maybe sometimes later after this drama ended. May I know which one do you recommend it more? Secret affair > SITR?

Oh wow, did I sound sarcastic? I didn't intend it to. As you may see, english is not my first language so my words might came out as wrong.

I never watched SITR nor secret affair, so I need to ask you to know what do you mean that the writer didn't understand noona dramas at all that those drama you mentioned seems understood it to you.

If that means a man - woman relationship and not a woman with his teddy bear or boy like you mentioned above,
I think we haven't reached that part yet as they're still in their early ep (early stage of relationship)
I wanted them to go that way but not from the get go, but gradually.
Tbh, I find their relationship right now are fresh & beautiful. Imo, they can always develop it as a man & woman relationship later as their bonding gets deeper (which I very much hope so)

If you follow this page earlier before the drama started, you may see that there's this kind of ppl who called/referred an actress(es) who acted on noona romance drama as cougar ladies (which I find very insulting).

That's why I'm really thankful for this drama to give a different approach on noona romance drama (with a more poetic way which I very much prefer) that ppl would not misinterpreted noona romance drama as a lust relationship between noona & dongsaeng which I find very insulting to the actress who played in the drama.

(I hope my words won't be misinterpreted this time as I don't want & didn't intend to insult anybody whatsoever).

Ikr, idk why there're so many immature fans keep accusing someone here & there and keep making a false assumption in this page, just so unhealthy.
Like trashing other dramas viewers who don't have the same "taste" with them or pointing fingers to ppl that they had purposely rated this drama lower, etc. Like dude, wake up!! this is not the only drama ppl have rated it as 1, every drama has that, even fav of mine too, & by a lot.

No need to bother too much about it because it won't matter at the end, esp given this is a popular drama with a high amount of viewers.
Like you can rated them as 1 or even a 10 but it won't matter if the majority is not, statistically the rating would gets higher or lower depends on the whole majority rate. So just relax & enjoy your drama. Too much focus on rating will ruined your enjoyment of watching.

So please guys, have some respect to those ppl who comment & posting about their thoughts of this drama and stop accussing people, giving opinions are totally different with spreading unreasonable hatred.
If fans didn't want to hear anything but praise for this drama then they certainly need to live in their own bubble.
