Oh man, imagine you have to produce all that in one episode :)))
Anyway, considering the circumstances of it, that they had to cut episodes, they did pretty decent. I'm just sorry that it had so much potential, they could have made a longer series. Yeah plot was a bit weak, but to be honest I wasn't watching it for the plot, but because it was so very funny and relaxing, and well played. It had the right amount of serious+fun.
I cannot get over how beautiful the romantic scenes are. Amazing acting... I literally feel her struggle, disappointment, fear and all the blame she takes upon herself, thinking her misfortune was her fault. And I understand how sometimes you would like to say something back, but literally just stand there waiting for the hurt and storm to pass.
As for him, the way he tries, despite all of it, to come closer, tear those walls she built, to make her trust him because he's just head over heals, is astonishingly well acted out.
I put this off for such a long time and I'm at ep 13. I adore it.
off topic: So sad to hear about what happened in Seul today :( We had an incident here as well, on Halloween, in 2015, when 64 people died in a fire that broke out during a concert that evening. This news brought back very sad memories.
Is a drama of granting a final wish to ghosts and you find that unrealistic?
actually I get what Nauriya means. Usually supernatural themes need to be sort of believable, they need to be set in a context that makes one feel that if they were real "this is what it would feel like" like Tomorrow for example, or like Master's Sun, or like Alchemy of Souls.
Yes it's fantasy but it should have a logic we can detect. Otherwise it would, for me at least, feel plain, childish and poorly executed.
I like the idea of it, but the majority of conversations are pretty unnecessary, dragged and repetitive. A bit childish and simple to be honest, though the subject is pretty ambitious. Uncle has really no significance, the police neighbor is just loud, etc.
I don't even wanna express how annoyed I was at her throwing all the stuff around looking for the check, her reasons and dialog were so poorly written. She is not a bad actress usually, i think.
Oh well, maybe the drama isn't there yet.
Also, c'omon, Norway does not give the Nobel Prize, it's Sweden. Don't know if that was an intentional line or just a mistake.
I know, i thought she looked a bit familiar, at most I thought she looks like the girl from "What's wrong with secretary Kim"... but i didn't think it's her at first.
I always wanna come here after each episode and comment something that will make someone start this show. And I always stop... because whatever I say, it will never do justice to this drama. I can say it's amazing, I can talk about the plot, the acting, the costumes, the music... I can say it's the best I've seen so far and the purest 10 rating I can give, and yet, it would still not be enough.
From my experience in court, as a lawyer, I gotta say this drama manages to catch the essence of the "court behavior" for judges, lawyers, prosecutors, witness and procedures very well. Not totally accurate, since it's a drama and well... judicial system is different, but all in all, I'm so surprised how much I stopped and went all "Oh ya, I feel you" :)))
i gotta say, the song I heard in the ending of ep 1 (which is usually in every ep) makes any scene look epic, deep, meaningful. It is the single most beautiful OST i heard so far, and my Spotify list has bout 4h of music from various kdramas. This is by far my favourite <3
"woman on her period" yeah you should delete your comment
Again, being emotional and crying over and over (cause some women are like that during that time) should not be something thought of as "offensive". Please go tell a woman who's like that that it's offensive and that she should knock if off, it offends women's image.
My comparison was strictly implying that the behavior and the approach towards the subject is way to emotional, yes, by comparing it to the hormones a woman goes through which, again, should not be viewed as offensive.
Not sure if you even ever had any experience with trauma…this drama has the most realistic take I’ve seen…
I agree partially, it is just that I would like to see some different handling of the subject as well. I'd like to see short emotional parts of it, cause yeah, the struggle is there, but I'd like more ...mom+grandma take on it. Saw them cry as well, just not on literally every scene. I think it's just all about expectations from this show.
Ugh, I would like your cmnt if you have avoid writing 'women on her period drama'. Yikes. It is sexist and disgusting.…
First of all, "woman on her period" is not an insult, says a lot about people whom offend themselves about literally anything. Is "emotional roller coaster of hormones " more appealing though essentially saying the same?
If it is the "woman" part that cannot be changed, only us women have that.
I think people should be a bit more understanding of life, charge themselves with patience and literally focus on a subject and not get triggered about every little thing. Yes I find people crying over and over and over and over... just like some women during that phase of the month. Should we tell women that are like that that it is insulting for them to be like that? Now that would be a bit unfair, don't you think?
I will edit it out, since people took offense, but really, I shouldn't have had to.
I am so tired of all the crying, small talk and the darn cup of tea/coffee talks. I swear to God this is the last crying drama I am watching.
Imagine the casting: -Yes yes, all that is great... but just HOW MUCH crying can you do?
There is just nothing else but crying. I literally skipped scenes and there was just someone bawling their eyes out while dramatically walking around for 10 minutes straight, regardless of where my mouse landed. OH GAH!!!
I mean sure, he did some crying in Beyond Evil as well, it's true he nails that, but there at least he also had a spine and the capability to feel more than one emotion.

All in all, pretty ok. :)
