Usually dramas like this end up being my favourite, but the main couple had zero chemistry imo. They both felt…
I agree with every word! You said it so well, for the reasons of the characters being BORING as hell, No chemistry and bad writing where ML made his whole personality about FL - I unfortunately had to give this drama only a 2/10 and drop at after ep4. Despite liking both lead actors.
I actually like imperfect characters, but I didn't like them here, because they were also boring. All the supporting cast were more interesting than the leads.
This was too similar, with the added downside of being longer. At least WCAL was Short. And the leads had actually Chemistry there, very good chemistry.
It should be lower. I gave it a 2/10 and dropped it now after finishing ep4.
In a Romance drama it's VITAL that you actually ship the leads together.
But 2ML is everything ML is not: Fun, Compelling, Cool.
Instead I only cared about FLs career, which has now been built up nicely following her becoming one of the owners of the design company. The End. Happy ending for me, No need to continue watching.
This ML is too much a Doormat, No backbone, and mostly just NOT an interesting personality. It's a good thing he lost the weight and become handsome, because his personality is snooze, so there was no great personality to compensate for his lack of looks....But even with his loook he's still snooze..
FL wasn't particuarly likable either.
It's not realistic either how they STILL just like each other after YEARS with NO buildup when they meet again.
THE OTHER DRAMAS with this Back to Hometown & Reunite with childhood love (Will Love In Sping, Welcome to Samdarli, Love Next Door) HAD BUILDUP 1ST: Meet again, don't instantly crush, built up a New adult connection....
Sorry, i don't get what's so wrong with being mixed race and with coloured eyes in Korea?
They are super racist. I guess it's their own type of Nazi, they prefer people to only date within their own culture. They only accepted Song Joon Ki marrying a foreigner because he's a Man and a priviliged famous handsome actor. π Famous actresses or low status men could never.
Congratulation Ha young for finally bagging a FL role .I just hope this drama doesn't have messy traingle or dragging…
Or ML actually dumping FL to get back together with his ex he's not over once leads have started their relationship π«£π₯΄ (vs just Ex just trying to interfere but not actually Ending their relationship) (Happened in a drama I recently watched, I'm traumatized π₯²)
I really want this pairing! But Iβm beginning to hate speculative articles with βin talksβ, βreviewingβ,…
It's usually 100% confirmed, UNLESS they also say "The actor is also looking at other projects, this is just one of them".
Positively considering = 99% certain.
So unless something unexpeced happens (Like actor having a scandal or Funding not given to the drama suddenly/Behind the scene drama) - it usually happens, Speculated to be cast articles are just agencies ways of buidling up Mystery Hype LMAO , π
Also this FL seems highly likable! I haven't watched her in anything, except apparantly in Extraordinary Attorney Woo (Forgot. Went to look at clips of her there). I like her vibes! She's like a nice mix between the chinese actress Zhou YuTong and Shin Se Kyung. It's the Down-to-earth Smart girl vibes yet also Pretty (vs just pretty but dumb bimbo) makes her very likable.
Looking foward to this drama!
My only complaint is the title, please change This Sucky Love to something much better! Last drama with something "Sucks" in title tuned out to SUCK majorly indeed! (Love Is For Suckers) No JINXING please just change this dumb title!
If we go by the PD's previous work Mask Girl, this one will dive deep into the darkness of K ent (suicides, saesang fans, expectations to remain single, crazy knetz, greedy inhumane agency CEOs), she might be hesitating to accept because the drama might get controversial/TOO HONEST/offend knetz easily because of how truthfully this PD likes to depict things. Some people (or many) do not like the truth and become hostile.....
Mask Girl was great in its honest deciption of darkness, only sensitive MDListers hated on it because they prefer more cliche tropey fluffy works....
ohhh interesting, i have a dumb question. How itβs possible that the weeklyβs drama have a better rating like…
Koreans unlike international audience like Melodrama (which these longer type dramas tend to be). I agree with koreans taste, ifans have such trashy silly romcom taste. Maybe I was korean in a past life ha ha
Finished ep 2, and I don't know, I DON'T FIND THE LEADS SHIPPABLE TOGETHER.
Just rooting for 2ML and shipping:
Kang hee & 2ML Kang Hee & Career Success Kang Hee & female childhood bff as besties Kang Hee & the lady who quit her job as working partners Kang Hee & her father getting closer/fixing her resentment towards him
.....Basically I only care about evrything EXCEPT the leads together lol
They were cute togther when young, but it doesn't mean they work together as adults. Per ep2 end & ep3 preview, All I see is them bringing out worst in each other now.

MY LOVELY SAM SOON kdrama!!!
That's where it suddenly happened!!
It was a 10/10 drama UNTIL it happened !!! π€¬π€¬π‘π‘π‘
BETRAYAL INDEED!!!
I'm STILL in Dumbfounded Shock over ML doing this!!!
NO DRAMA SHOULD EVER DO THIS AGAIN.
FORBIDDEN! πβπ π»ββοΈ
PLEASE.DO.NOT.ADD.IT.LATER
-Kdrama fans who are tired of 2024&2025 kdrama nonstop doing this
Maybe this can air in January 2026 and start a new trend of NO childhood connnection?!? π
(Happened in a drama I recently watched, I'm traumatized π₯²)
Now please be good writing, this writer wrote the ML as too much of a Loser type in her previous drama, hopefully not here!

This Sucky Love to something much better!

No JINXING please just change this dumb title!
Mask Girl was great in its honest deciption of darkness, only sensitive MDListers hated on it because they prefer more cliche tropey fluffy works....
....even in more unique dramas like this they are now inserting Romance since childhood please erase this Stupid Trend already K ent !!
SO.
Not only they'll have Gong Yoo x Song Hye Kyo,
even Cha Seung Won and Lee Ha Nee!!
THIS.CAST.IS.EXPENSIVE. π π
Looking forward to it! π
Ps. As evidenced by his latest drama The Trunk, Gong Yoo works much better with FLs his age, than creepy age gap roms like Goblin.
I agree with koreans taste, ifans have such trashy silly romcom taste. Maybe I was korean in a past life ha ha
Just watching 2ML & Kang Hee's career take off is making me want to continue for now, but don't know if it's enough to finish the drama....
Just rooting for 2ML and shipping:
Kang hee & 2ML
Kang Hee & Career Success
Kang Hee & female childhood bff as besties
Kang Hee & the lady who quit her job as working partners
Kang Hee & her father getting closer/fixing her resentment towards him
