2 MLs though? Abit worried about developing 2nd Lead syndrome and rooting for the one she won't end up with. π I hope they make it VERY CLEAR from the start which of them she'll end up with, Romance isn't supposed to be unpredictable! It's Not a thriller or mystery!
Some users here keep spamming this similar Hoax in the comments....I'm tired of reporting them and their action just continuing. At one point the mods should start banning accounts
I too really like both Na In woo & Lee Se Young and WANTED to like the drama. Unfortunately writing was Trash.
It's more disappointing when you like the actors of a drama which ends up disappointing. At least if one is indifferent about the actors, it doesn't fewl like such a Waste of a good actor...
I watched my share of 2000 melodrama and this doesnβt deserve all the hate is getting. It has cliches like most…
I too have watched loooooots of 2000s melodrama. I tend to like them. They were entertaing in their melo, this was not. And the couples were actually shippable.. Here they were not. Actually Melo is my fave genre. Currently watching the Old Revenge Melo-romcom drama Birth of a Beauty, and it's a million timess better than this. π Leads have fun personalities, entertaining writing, no boring moments, leads are shippable. Han Ye Seul acting a traumatized character really well, better than Lee Se Young, as mucha s I like LSY, i have to admit this....
Motel California on the other hand.... These two were only cute when young. There's no reason for them to be together as adults or be endgame. They are only annoying together, bring out the Worst in each other and have NO chemistry. π€¦ββοΈ
If anything, this deserves more hate. I gave it 2/10 for bad writing, boring characters and unshippable leads with boring personalities.
I'm just about to watch this, but why is it getting bad reviews and a lower rating? I'm here for the romance.…
The romance is very badly written. It's not realistic at all, and then it goes back and forth and ML has no backbone, total Whimp. It's just annoying. Bad writing.
I really WANTED to like this drama. And usually I disagree what MDListers opinion when they dislike a drama, but unfortunately I have to agree.
It had POTENTIAL, with Great cast, interesting setting with the Motel, FL had an interesting career as interior designer....But I simply didn't like it. Didn't see why the leads should even be together. And ML was a backbone lacking whimp. Didn't ship them.
People on this site rating his best projects as 6. something, because they hate Melodrama! π€¦ββοΈ
There's no objectivity in the rating on this site, whatever is more lighthearted and has young famous actors as leads will gain higher rating, despite being trashy. π π€¦ββοΈ
I'm not surpised that Knetz didn't like it, while ifans liked it.
It seems like the type of movie more for international fans to enjoy.
Koreans prefer to just watch things they releate to, koreans are quite racist and don't like a cultural exchange themed story, in other places people are generlaly more Cosmopolitan and enjoy this type of immigrant movies.
not a character representing a p e d o πππson ye jin nooooo
I don't know much aboit the irl person, but if they're really a pervert, then going by the previous work the character will likely end up dead and killed by someone and the killing of the pervert will be shown as fully justified, so the viewers will be rooting for the killer.
Even when in Mask Girl the pervert charcter was shown as the Point of view charcter for an episode (The drama changed points of if view/lead each ep), the pervert wasn't shown particularly sympathetic beyond just the start of the episode. Actully showing from THEIR point of view made them look EVEN MORE creepy.
So This PD is pretty much Team Kill Perverts, don't sympatize with them. π π Don't expect justificationd of pervert behaviours, unless someone funding the drama is a creep calling the shots above the PD.
If Son Yejin accepts this drama, I think we can be cerrain there's no creepy funder and Yejin's character will indeed follow the Mask Girl honesty and her character shown as a Villain.

Yes it's a VILLAIN character. Like most of the Leads where in PD's previous work Mask Girl too. This PD doesn'y do the Leads are nice and suporting are villains. Most are villains.
Wow FL's Ex-husband really as flaky as can be. Took FL only 1 ep to revenge-seduce him lol, like this has to be some type of Record on flakiness of jerk exes lol
The way both women keep competing over a man like this is headache-inducing π, even the trashy 2FL deserves better than this Flaky playboy. How did he ever like the FL at ANY point back when she was fat, seeing how easily seduced he is by looks.....
2 MLs though?

No. She was always a Romance Queen π

Secondly, she's already 36 WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT
I thought she was in her 20s lol π π
Go Soo + Seo Ji Hye as a couple! π And Kim Jae Kyung too! (I'm pleasantly surprised she's back so quickly after getting married!)
Also this caught my eye:
"it will air in the first half of this year."
OMG, Not too much wait either!! π

Maybe she wants to play a villain.
This PD in their previous work showed all the human darkness in a very honest way. Too honest for MDListers hating on the drama π
....So unless this drama gets funded by her personally or by some jerk who decides to control the narrative and potray her nicely, it won't happen

Just watch that one and SKIP this Motel California trash with CRAP WRITING, BORING CHARACTERS and NO CHEMISTRY.
It's the same FL Returns to Hometown & Connects with Childhood crush story.
Except brilliant indepth writing and Chemistry so Wow that even the haters (with bad taste) of the drama liked their Chem aha ha
10/10 peak drama, and I don't even normally like cdrama!
