I had no idea this was a Go Ahead remake, I'll make sure to watch it soon, Go Ahead is one of my favorite c dramas…
I just couldn't stand the ML's dangerously clingy neediness for the FL. It made me really uncomfortable. I loved the found family aspect, but the romance was not romantic at all.

I wished they could stop this drunk acting bs.. horrible.. sorry but when i see Chae Soo Bin acting drunk.. pls…
Most romcoms have them, and I'm never a huge fan, but I think the only drunk FL I can get behind is Bae Suzy in Start Up sticking her face out the window on the bus and whooping. 😅 She was genuinely adorable.

Title Take Charge of My Heart Spoiler
her hair is like that because of the electricity.
Except I noticed she had the curly hair before she got electrocuted (when she was a kid). 🤔

Ahhh, this was so refreshing to watch. Reminds me of the classic cheesy rom coms we would get in the 2010-2020…
So true! It feels like a throwback.

Title The Rebel
This is by the same screenwriter as My Dearest?! I HAVE to watch this! Its just...chae soo bin being the FL is…
It's great; give it a shot! I love Soo Bin in this, and while the romance becomes a really important part of the story later on, the number of romantic scenes with the leads together is actually pretty far and few between and concentrated in the last 1/3 of the drama. Most of the screen time follows Gil Dong with his buddies, and the King.

Agreed.It's such a shame that script is bad because the directing is absolutely amazing!Such a visually absolutely…
Boys Over Flowers is such a hot mess... but I love it. 😅 Such a sucker for that story. Prefer the Thai version, but Korean version has a special place in my heart as it was my first introduction to F4.

I did enjoy the drama! It was light, cute, and fun, but I honestly feel like they didn't do justice to the title…
Korean romcoms don't always find that balance (between cute and cringe). 😅

Rating is 8, been seeing reviews of 4...is this good?
Well, score has only climbed since it dropped. 🤷🏼‍♀️ It's pretty fun. Not a masterpiece by any means, but enjoyable!

I think the reason this drama is kind of hard to review because it's kind of an amalgamation of different dramas…
Well-put! I think I agree with this assessment. It feels like a solid drama after so many trainwreck dramas with horrible scripts or uneven/sloppy pacing (I would put Our Sticky Love in a similar category as this one), but when compared against the stronger dramas of this genre, it doesn't stand out in any significant way.

I also loved Soo Bin in Rebel: Thief Who Stole The People. If you haven't seen her in that, it's well worth a watch! She also plays a great villain(ish) in Sassy Go Go.

Starting this now.Such mixed reviews, it's hard to predict whether I'll like this or not.
Did you like I'm Not A Robot, My Sweet Mobster or Strong Woman Do Bong Soon? If so, I think there's a good chance you'll like it (though this doesn't have a violent side plot; haven't seen a romcom without one for a while!).

It's one of those cheesy/cutesy/cringey romcoms, but the drama pokes fun at itself and is self-aware about its cheesiness... and goes there anyway. 😅 It's cute and fun and just a sweet romance. The pacing is decent and the characters are interesting, if not very original.

I'm kind of digging these pre-produced Netflix throwback romcom dramas (I'm also thinking of Out Sticky Love) that aren't trying to be experimental or original; they've been sticking the landing fairly well for me and I've been pleasantly surprised.

The premise is similarly hoaky as in I'm Not A Robot. But it's fun. (I loved I'm Not A Robot)

The feel is similar to My Sweet Mobster and Strong Woman Do Bong Soon (without the darker side plot those two have) and I'm Not A Robot, if you're wondering about similar dramas/tone.

I've only seen the ML in Pinocchio and he played a very different character in that, but he really channeled the goofball in this one (at times).

If you don't like the cringe/cutesy highly stylized flavor of Kdrama humor that is unique to romcoms (complete with sound effects), then you will probably find this too cheesy/fluffy for your taste.

The premise taken for what it is, along with all the accompanying suspension of disbelief, to me the most unrealistic part seemed to be how quickly he bounced back from open heart surgery. 😅

I'm really enjoying it so far. I am partway through Episode 8.

Underrated. Feels more like reviews are purposedly done bad.Now that I've finished watching, all the arguments…
Totally agree about the reviews. People who disliked it largely seem to be people who had specific expectations of what this season would be, and didn't have those expectations met.

I loved both seasons!

Not a fangirl, but Soo Bin is so cute as this character. I don't really like OTT cutesy characters that seem childish,…
Chae Soo Bin is one of the most endearing Korean actresses. Adored her in I'm Not A Robot and Rebel: Thief Who Stole The People. She's one of my favorites. :)

Does anyone know where I can watch this? I have IQIYI and VIKI, but it's not on either of them. :( Along with…
Both are Netflix (in the U.S.).

I don't think the drama ignored men or was anti-men, it just wasn't telling their story. And while it maybe could…
It sounds like it (that we won't agree). :)

Title Against the Current Spoiler
yeah, it was in the drama. Maybe you should put it under a spoiler tag though.
As far as how it ended up in the drama, I liked how you find out with Lan Xiang, but it does sound like a cool scene.
