Does love end when we end a relationship?
Without much to say about this drama, it will appeal to those who enjoy a good romance, the kind where no one wants to destroy everything; it's just the past that prevents them from trying to do things differently. There's good chemistry between the protagonists, but without much more to add, it's simply enjoyable.Was this review helpful to you?

Will love ultimately survive the passing of years?
I was quite upset with this drama. At first, I thought both the story and the dynamics were incredible, but some decisions made by the production made me question them, especially the fact that to get rid of her ex-boyfriend, they invented the most ridiculous excuse possible (he leaves because when she was sick, allegedly he didn't love her 100%), which, in my opinion, would be perfectly normal, especially in the situation she was in. I think he took care of her as much as he could to make her feel better, but if he stayed home too long, they would be two people at rock bottom who couldn't reach out to each other when needed. And another fact: since the ex appears, we clearly see that she likes her ex much more than the protagonist, so I say that the excuse they gave to get rid of the ex was terrible because they had to find some way to make the protagonists get together. The other reason was the complete abandonment of the secondary characters in the last episodes. We viewers can't see an ending for these characters because the last scene we see is a phone call in which they agree to meet and nothing more. That's why I said I was angry due to certain decisions made by the show's production.Was this review helpful to you?

We are all human beings in the end.
Love to Hate You was an unbelievable surprise. In the first few episodes, I thought it would be just another series trying to demonstrate the inequalities between men and women, exaggerating reality and showing that only men are monsters in relationships. But as the episodes progressed, we see that the social criticism becomes less harsh and exaggerated, and instead uses humor without losing its critical meaning. Furthermore, thanks to the protagonist and the secondary character, the series presents several types of men who have suffered at the hands of women and who are also human in the end. All this is to say that at first it may give us the feeling of being just another sensationalist female program, but thanks to the character development we can observe from various points of view both the flaws of men and those of women, because at the end of the day, regardless of whether we are men or women, we are human beings and we all know that we are not perfect or anything like that.Was this review helpful to you?
Could a demon possibly like a human?
For me, this was the first drama I saw where the main genre wasn't romance, so maybe I found it a little below par. Not because it was terrible, just a bit too basic ; I can't explain it well. Maybe it's not my favorite genre that shapes my opinion, but to be honest, for those who like the supernatural genre with a very weak romance, this might be a good option.Was this review helpful to you?

Love is summed up in memories.
To be honest, it's a bit strange considering the premise and what happens without giving away too many spoilers. However, what the protagonist did to save her is odd. Aside from that, it's just another easy romance without much confusion, with plenty of tension between the protagonists, presenting us with a romance that's easy and reasonable to digest.Was this review helpful to you?

Do past lives really exist?
I had such high expectations for this drama, especially in the first few episodes. It seemed like the supernatural genre would be incredible in this story, but over time it completely faded away. In the first episodes, everything they presented was so exciting; I wanted to watch until the end to find out everything that was happening. But as the episodes went on, it stopped being a supernatural series with romance and became a weak romance where the supernatural element no longer mattered as much to the story.Was this review helpful to you?
Is love just about sex and kisses?
I think that for someone used to explosive and intense romances, this romance might seem a little boring, but for someone in the 25-30 age range, it's a perfect fit. Unlike the intense romances we're used to seeing, this one offers a completely different perspective. At least for me, it shows exactly what much more mature people look for in a relationship; it's not just about sex or passionate kisses, it's about trust, partnership, and transparency. Given the age of the protagonists (she's 40, he's 37), we can't expect a relationship where the people involved are 22 or 23. For me, this drama perfectly represents what it means to be an adult in a relationship.Was this review helpful to you?
We can even break the cycle we live in.
For me, this is a romance that isn't exactly within my usual range of tastes, but it was a great surprise. I think for many, it might be a little confusing, but that's also part of the premise of this drama. For me, everything is very good and well done, but I realize it won't please all audiences because the romance here is much more symbolic and melancholic. I'm only not giving it a 10/10 because I think the author, in wanting to create the ending his own way, made the final message too vague. I believe that after such a complex drama, the viewer appreciates something more comforting and vibrant than just an open ending where we're not even sure if all their effort really served a purpose or if it was just to finish a cycle.Was this review helpful to you?
Is it wrong to feel love for your boss?
I think this drama is simply perfect because I believe it does everything it sets out to do. I didn't go into this drama expecting it to be the best I've ever seen, but that's why it's so good. It's perfect because it commits to doing what it is without having to invent problems or worries, and to be honest, the chemistry between the protagonists is enormous, especially when they both realize they like one another .Was this review helpful to you?
Is love at work a sin?
Another case where those who enjoy pure romance will be very satisfied. This drama doesn't try to be something it's not; it's simple and easy, and sometimes that's all we need. We don't always need something complex and paranormal; many times, we just need something simple to be very satisfied, and this drama delivers on that, both with the couple and the story.Was this review helpful to you?

Does the translator really know how to translate love?
I confess I had to watch it twice to get a better understanding. The first time I watched it, I thought the part about her illness was a bit forced, but the second time I watched it with a more open mind, and I loved it. I think what gives this drama its charm, besides the romance and chemistry, is the fact that we have another character without needing to add yet another one. This means seeing the duality that a single character can represent really fills this story, and I think the tension between the characters throughout this drama only draws us closer and closer; we almost want to be part of this story just to finally see those two together.Was this review helpful to you?

Love can also be scary.
A huge disappointment. This is a typical case where the metrics used in South Korea sometimes severely hinder the production of truly good dramas. The first 10 episodes are very good, with strong character development, a solid build-up to the supernatural and romantic aspects, and then absolutely nothing towards the end of the series; it feels like the world is on fire. They create more problems beyond those developed throughout the series and try to solve everything at once, leaving no room for the most important aspects: romance and the supernatural. They leave much to be desired. If we look closely at the last episode, the main couple seems much more apathetic, and the supernatural element, which could have brought something new, is handled carelessly and concluded haphazardly (there's nothing wrong with making a 16-episode series where everything can be resolved in its own time).Was this review helpful to you?
Can winter also be radiant?
I think it's a good romance, a little slow perhaps, in my opinion. The story isn't anything special; it has ordinary characters who don't contribute much to the plot. It's another case where keeping it basic and simple works because this drama clearly wasn't made to be very complex, requiring you to pay attention to everything that happens during the episodes. It's good because it's easy and accessible to everyone.Was this review helpful to you?
