Title Castaway Diva Spoiler
I want to watch this but is the ending good? Is the drama statisfying? pls let me knowπŸ™πŸ½
Yes and yes! Just notice the difficult childhood tag since there is some domestic abuse in this. But an absolutely beautiful drama!

It's easy to criticize flawed parents until you inevitably become one. 😏

Yeah, got scared off from KTL after reading similar comments to yours, haha, and that makes sense about TGBM. I'm not Asian, so that's probably why I struggled with her a bit, but I also understood her character and could respect her despite all her flaws. They made it clear she had good intentions all along, they were just deeply veiled by the way she chose to act on them. The title was apt! 😏

I liked him for his comedic scenes in Vincenzo and hated him in Big Mouth for being so annoying. Whereas in Recipe…
Haha, yes!

Didn't watch KTL but Jun Ho is a great actor. Loved him in Just Between Lovers. Oh, yeah, TGBM was good. The mom was obviously a tough sell but enjoyed the drama overall and the twins were DARLING. :)

What were CCIR and TGBM again? I only watch airing dramas I'm pretty convinced I'll enjoy from start to finish, so I didn't watch many until now. Some of the big ones this year I don't have access to on the platforms I subscribe to and I don't bother with illegal streaming cause it's too annoying to avoid ads, haha.

Haha, what can I say? People like steamy romances with sizzling chemistry. I'll admit I haven't seen My Demon so I don't want to reduce it to just that without having seen it, so pardon my generalizing, but in general it does sell. I mean, that's what a lot of Netflix is anyway. πŸ˜…

Haha, yeah, we'll see why she left him, then, since he seems to still like her. He was kind of annoying in Crash Landing, too, but in an endearing sort of way. :P

I also feel like maybe this drama won't appeal to international audiences as much as say, My Demon or Sweet Home? There are also a LOT of good dramas competing for attention right now, especially on the weekends. I was wondering if the end of the year gets flooded with stronger, more buzzworthy dramas since awards season is around the corner. It felt like there was a long stretch with only a good drama here or there until recently and then we got flooded. πŸ˜‚

@Coolforthesummer Episode 3 was definitely better. I guess we'll see?

Okay, I think I know what you mean? There might have been a few points in CD with ML, but they were brief. I also think some dramas don't always delve this deeply into the main leads' feelings. I haven't seen My Demon so I'm not familiar with that part...

I usually I prefer stories to show us what characters think and feel through their actions and words to other characters rather than giving us a direct window into their thoughts as a scene happens, anyway. I think it's more artistic and creative. Though sometimes it's done more in comedic scenes and can help make them funnier. Also, I suppose voiceovers kind of count, too?

the korean govt really wants to promote the birth rate and ppl leaving seoul and having babiesπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
I was wondering if Jeju is really that much cheaper than living in Seoul? It's a vacation/seaside spot for Koreans, right? So I picture it being pricey for locals like similar tourist spots in California or Hawaii, for instance, but maybe it's not an accurate comparison.

I laughed when I saw who they cast as Jin Dal's ex-husband because I instantly pictured him in scenes with Jin Dal. He usually plays comedic roles so I anticipate chaotic interactions and over-the-top antics ahead between him and Jin Dal. πŸ˜…

Castaway Diva kinda does? I can think of some others as well. Though I suppose it's necessary to define what we mean by "ML's POV" since we all might have a different idea of what that looks like. πŸ€”

I thought it was so cute how excited each of her guy friends got when they heard she was back. Adorable!

Getting more and more Reply 1988 vibes as it progresses, and that chaotic comaraderie is something I'm here for!

For those who are deciding whether to watch this or not, this does not have the same plot as the popular dramas…
"This is all about the director's execution and writer's creativity to create magic out of the common or mundane." Love this.

Well-put! People who come to Kdramas for original stories are looking in the wrong places, and it confuses me to no end. Why complain about how predictable the plot is? Kdramas ARE predictable; that's their essence, haha. There are certain tried-and-true plots and premises that can be told different ways and still feel fresh and new, but you have to go into it knowing that the basic plot is something we've seen before, but the drama itself can still deliver something we haven't seen before and that "spin" (I call it "a variation on a theme") can still be deeply enjoyed. πŸ‘
