I think it's time to drop on episode 10. It's too slow and boring. I was drawn in by the high rating, but it's not worth that high rating for me. So it seems the majority prefer this slow, slice of life, sports dominated drama. It has some decent romance, but overall, it's not good enough. Definitely NOT a masterpiece 10/10.
Also, the relationship between the senior male badminton player and the woman he likes with the child is ridiculous. She chose to marry and have a child with another man while the whole time knowing he liked her. Then she accepts him years after getting a divorce. She just settled for second best. If things worked out between her ex-husband, she wouldn't be with him. If she really liked him, she would've chosen him from the beginning. If I were him, i wouldn't accept being "the backup" and move on with my life finding someone who really wants to be with me.
Yeah good story and romance, but the scenes were sometimes cut short and it seemed there were missing parts. I thought for once we have a drama where there aren't any SML's with feelings for the FL, but that changed quickly. Still searching for a drama with a SFL with feelings for the ML but no SML's with feelings for the FL.
Yes very good. Ah, the short dramas are just something else. Good romance and surprisingly good intimate scenes and kisses. But why was the ML always half naked but the FL always fully clothed? Not even a glimpse of any skin because she was always in baggy clothing. Does she not have a good body?
Yeah, not bad. A good watch. I'm just trying to remember if there were any female characters except the FL with feelings for the ML. If not, then that's a bit confusing and makes this drama a bit unrealistic.
Overall it was a good watch. But be warned for viewers just starting this expecting romance. It's not a typical romcom. It's more slice of life/family with a side of romance. I was also mislead by the name, poster, and previews thinking it was mostly romcom. Episodes 1-11 is family/life drama. Episodes 12-16 is more romcom. It's a slow burn which will probably frustrate you for a while. It's easier to process if you understand this while not expecting your typical romcom.
Currently on episode 10. It's ok so far. It's more slice of life than romcom. I was hoping it was more romcom judging from the name, poster, and some previews, so a little disappointing in that regard. Hopefully the last quarter is more romcom. But i can't see myself giving this a high rating by the end of it.
I'm on episode 6, and nothing is happening with anything. There's no progression of anything. Nothing's happening with the main leads relationship and even their feelings. We can see he likes her, but nothing from the FL. Then, there are the second leads with the paramedic and the reporter. No progression with their relationship either. Then her reasons for returning home. I know there needs to be some build-up, but this is taking it too far. They need to give us something to keep us interested. When does it change because it's kind of boring at the moment?
I love this. I'll try to watch all of them. Short dramas are great. No boring bits, no bs, just straight to the point. No low rating from me unless there's minimal to no romance. Romance or no chance. Out of the list above, which one has the best romance stories?
I just started this. How's the romance? I'm just checking to see if it's the typical ML virgin simp who was in love with her from the beginning and dedicating his life for her without having any female characters around him except the FL. Meanwhile, she'll have a SML (with feelings for her) for a shoulder to cry on. Then, later on, she'll end up with the ML either because she realises her feelings for him or because she can't be with the SML for one reason or another? Is it anything like this? I hope so.
I am on ep 5 and suddenly had a thought, what if ML and FL's role were reverse? FL would have come from abroad…
Well, the ML would've been waiting patiently for her for over 10 years without any interactions with other female characters because he's a virgin simp who would've realised his feelings for her immediately and dedicated his life to her. The FL would've had multiple boyfriends in America because she's allowed to. Then she returns and meets the ML but still thinks of him as a friend just like 10 years ago. Meanwhile, a SML will enter either from America or a work colleague. The love triangle will begin between the ML, FL, and SML as usual. Eventually, after a huge exhausting battle from the ML trying to win her heart, the FL finally chooses the ML either because she realises her feelings for him or because she can't have the SML for one reason or another.
It's good, better than i expected. But I'm not surprised considering JSM is the FL. She's amazing. The two breakups between the leads was just silly, especially his reason for breaking up with her because he found out his best friend likes her. So what. They were already a couple. Two people who like each other. She has feelings too. Does he think she's an object you can just pass around? My friend likes you, so you can be with him instead. That's not how it works.
So the FL and ML cheated on their partners to be together. So this is the foundation of their relationship.😂 Great characters we have here. How can we possibly support them when this dramas protagonists are cheaters ending up happily together without consequences?
