I've only watched 5 episodes so far. Overall, I like it and will continue watching. BJT’s performance is excellent, and the plot is a well mix of comedy and some seriously heavy science and humanity themes. I've never seen Janice Man in anything before, but she already looks super cool to me, even when she is in quiet side here.
That said, there are a few things that bother me: 1. He use guns way too nonchalantly (or is that Chinese police thing? Idk) 2. The pacing feels a bit slow for me, a lot of slow motion and retelling. But sometimes so fast that if I blink too long I'll miss so many things. My brain is in nonstop fast and slow mode repeatedly, kinda make me confused sometimes. 3. The captain really really annoys me.
On my way to cook some instant noodle to make sure I have something to eat while watching this. But I think it will be gone before the drama even starts...🙃
I noticed her immediately, she’s been in loads of dramas this year. Might be the glasses made her face look…
Right, the glasses do something. But mostly it's the voice that tricks my brain! I only ever watched her in Crushology, so maybe the drastic contrast makes it harder for me to recognize her.
I didn’t realize until I read the cast list that the young Je Yeon is played by the same actress who played the annoying ex in Crushology. She looks a lot younger here!
It awakened my old memories of Cooking Master Boy mixed with early 2010s sageuk dramas. I love it!!! And finally, Chae Min getting a good main role. He already caught my eyes since Crash Course in Romance, but all his main role characters have been—I'm sorry, just my opinion—really bad. But finally, he get a suitable role here!
And now I’m suffering, waiting for episode 5... I’ve been cheating too much with cdramas. My patience is now as thin as tissue.
Mm... even ep 2 is good. I should have wait until all ep is out. But it's been a while since I find kdrama this interesting. So let me join the watching-while-ongoing wagon and suffer with the rest of you. Here I go ep 3~
I've been in a kdrama slump for almost a year, but this drama's trailer and reviews are quite interesting. A bit hesitant because Chae Min's recent dramas have been a miss, but the first episode is so promising. That last line in the book hints at a great story! And the acting is great so far👍
If there were a list of the Worst Second Male Lead Syndrome in K-drama History, this one maybe at the top. I usually root for the ML—even when the SML is a better character—because the ML tends to be more compatible with the FL. But not in this drama. The ML is shallow, and the FL and SML seem like they made for each other.
Surprisingly, the drama still feels fresh and entertaining, even though it's already 10 years old. The acting is great, though the character logic is off at times. And the OST is fantastic! I just realized I had many of the songs from this drama in my old playlist, even though I’d never watched the drama before.
someone please reccomend me more movies with this aesthetic
I know you only ask movies but...😶🌫️: - it's animation movie but feels really close: "Only Yesterday" (it's a ghibli movie) - it's a cdrama but really have similar comfort level: "Meet Yourself" - the OG Japanese version of "Little Forest" - these two are documentary/reality show "Hyori's Bed and Breakfast" and "Little House In The Forest" but they have similar aesthetic and that serene feeling, also cooking scenes
I basically just give you 2/3 of my comfort show list🤭
Oh, they drop the guns huh (except for Ji Hye😒). Actually, before this I already drop my expectation in hell but the second trailer is not that bad. Maybe I will watch it.
The casts looks good actually. Especially the one played Huiwon, looks as majestic as the Huiwon I read in manhwa!
This drama already one year old!🥰 Still in my kdrama top list. Good acting, good visual, best direction and best ost. The plot is so well calculated and trilling!
I know this is a hit or miss. But if you already interested, please try to watch 1-2 episodes. Maybe you are part of people that will love it for a long time❤️
Just go watch other drama that you enjoy. Your time is precious.

After almost a year with nothing to watch, Kdramas these days are so back!!!😆😆😆❤️
The awkwardness of meeting people you still feel familiar with—rarely see that presented naturally in kdramas. Loved it so much😂
Would it air only on Friday? One or two ep per week?
