Wow I'm the exact same way -- loved kdramas but I was rarely interested in kdramas between 2020 - 2023 timeframe…
Lol. Can't switch to 90% C dramas ^^ They're just too long :D Also, I hate watching too many things at the time. I try to stick to watching simultaneously a maximum of 4 shows anime included. This being said among all the K dramas you mentioned, only "Our Beloved Summer" wasn't "it" for me (Loved the esthetic but the female lead irked me on all fronts) , the three others are all time favs particularly True Beauty and Alchemy of Souls ( that type of drama is so rare in k drama land compared to China >_< but SK is a smaller country, can't produce as much as China) though.
Not married til 38? Unless he just fails at proposing for 3 years Sun Jae doesn’t have that much chill 😂
Actually it's more about the time they truly meet and get into a relationship. I mean his analysis was crazy but at the same time, he said that based on what's written on the bus it's clearly indicated that Sol's brother and her best friend would already be married by the time she is 34. I'll have to rewatch that video because unfortunately I'm working... But that number might change again who knows? What's for sure though, is that I think he's right when he says that spoilers are all across every episodes ^^ It's just not possible to see them on the first watch... I'll definitely look all of them up when I rewatch this series next week without subs this time ( it will give a good excuse to watch it again :D)
have you guys watched sh**thing star? I just realized but actor who plays In Hyuk has acted there too. For the…
Currently watching it. You just didn't pay attention because he looks exactly the same. Someone give him a lead role, he's too good looking to play second fiddle.
I'm both amazed at the amounts of details this series has that are just not noticeable unless you're some sort of extra-terrestrial alien ( one commenter mentioned that one of the details he noticed wouldn't not be noticeable unless you didn't blink - and I have to agree). One theory he came out with was notably that Sol and Seon Jae would get married at 38 based on the bus number. He also did all sorts of crazy calculations with the watch and whatever. Can't go into details, there's just too many but check it out if you're interested and learning Korean. It's a good exercise ^^
Anyway I think this person has the most accurate and well-thought-out theories regarding LR.
Got to say. K-Dramas have good and bad years, but seems to me that 2024 has started really really reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally strong and I'm not only thinking about Lovely Runner ( although it's probably going to stay my favorite this year - but there's 7 months left so I'm being cautious).
Been into K drama since 2005 with good and bad years and been in a little slump that lasted 4 years between 2020 and 2023... Didn't stop watching K dramas but not a lot of them caught my eyes.... But this year has been extremely good so far. It's bringing me back to them ^^ And there's a bunch of 2024 K-dramas on my mental To-Be-Watched that I haven't yet found the time to watch ( notably Queen of Tears, Twinkling Watermelons, Wonderful World, Parasyte - The Grey)
Love Asian dramas overall... but K-Dramas are still number 1 in my heart.
Anyway I'm a bit sad that it ends next week... But I'm also glad I'll get my normal life back. I'm going to stay away from live watching K dramas for a couple of months.
This drama particularly reminded me of the Longest Promise C-drama where the ML (this time) tries to avoid the…
Thank you for warning me... That one was on my mental To be Watch list, but now I'm not going to bother. I don't particularly enjoy torturing myself for 40 episodes. If at least it was mostly a happy series that would be okay, but I hate tragedies with a vengeance。
Note translated on Viki but have to mention it since it's important in the plot....
When Seon Jae is reading the script of the movie in the car ( just after his manager told him Sol is not longer involved in the production of the movie), he's actually reading the lyrics of the song "Rain Shower" that Sol has written (well that he has written in the lost timeline but obviously he doesn't know)
So in this time line... He doesn't write the song... BUT Im Sol wrote the lyrics. In the preview, it's hinted that Seon Jae is going to compose the melody and sing the song. Does he compose the melody based on his memories or out of thin air is another story.
I feel the pain for the entire episode 😭😭😭How am I going to live til next monday? 😭And after that????…
After that I'm happy to get my life back. This series that literally disturbed my work for the past 7 weeks and I'm TIRED.
I'm going to rewatch it entirely without subs... And though I doubt I'll get another series that obsess me that much during the rest of the year... I'm still gonna stay away from watching series live for a couple of months. Don't want to take any risks.
Anyone who guess about the necklace looks ugly ame can be use for a man .. you are the winner 🎉We still don’t…
I don't mind the necklace! Don't find it pretty, don't find it ugly either. Just... meh? But again I personally don't care for jewelry, so I guess I have no taste.
GOOD.
If I meet my Seon Jae, at least I'll be satisfied and happy if I get the same type of gift.
Ah yeah, just watched the 35s preview on youtube...
And Sol has resigned? Are you fudging kidding me? I thought she had given up on fighting against her fate but I was sorely mistaken. She's as stubborn as a mule. Well I get it, he's the love of your life, and you don't want to lose him.
I get it.
But after hurting Seon Jae for I don't know how many episodes, you're now doing it to yourself!!! I.AM.NOT.OK WITH THIS!!!
Very frustrating episode but the last scene and the preview ( THEY GAVE US A PREVIEW) gives us a better feeling…
That she got really really fired up at some point in their discussion and kepts saying that he's got other offers by way more famous scriptwriters, producers and whatever and WHY THE HELL does he want to be in this fudging movie out of spite.
And he answers that yeah, at the beginning it was out spite because he wanted to get back at her... but now he genuinely wants to be it for the reasons I previously mentionned。
Very frustrating episode but the last scene and the preview ( THEY GAVE US A PREVIEW) gives us a better feeling…
Unfortunately I couldn't watch the whole episode... I was lagging too much. I watched bits and pieces here and there but I missed most of the episode... which is why I feel very frustrated right now... but I'm confident I'll probably be less frustrated once I see the whole episode. I feel already extremelly really lucky I was able to see the final scene almost entirely. Anyway... Regarding what you just mentioned I just saw both characters bumping into each other and my screen froze so sorry...
Very frustrating episode but the last scene and the preview ( THEY GAVE US A PREVIEW) gives us a better feeling…
Yeah sorry can't give more details. I've got a relatively advanced level of Korean but I'm still missing a couple of words here and there and it usually takes me 2/3 watch to get everything which is not possible watching it live... But I got to say, as frustrated I am with Sol ( I understand but I'm frustrated nonetheless)... I really loved that last scene because it just felt that at that moment she gave up fighting against her fate with him.
REpost Spoil 2 last scene detailed here because the comment section is moving too fast
Very frustrating episode but the last scene and the preview ( THEY GAVE US A PREVIEW) gives us a better feeling for next week.
So Basically Seon Jae thinks Tae Sung is Sol's boyfriend.
In the last scene, Sol goes back to the amusement park and goes on the ferry wheel. Seon Jae who was supposed to film some scenes in the same park got his filming cancelled for I don't which reason because it lagged and I had no sounds, but anyway, he sees Sol and runs to get into the same cabin.
There Sol asks him why does he insists so much in being in that movie and he explains that he had a very strange feeling reading the script, as if this story was familiar. Even this park, this situation of being on this ferry wheel seems strangely familiar.
Also he asks her if the end is really the guy forgetting all his memories of the woman. He says it's a sad ending, and he doesn't particularly like it. She says, it's a happy ending from the woman's point of view. He says that he doesn't agree, she lost her love. It's a sad ending. She asks him would he get involved with her if he knew he was about to die from it. And he asks if he needs to prepare himself to die if they interract.
The ferry wheel stops and in a familiar situation Seon Jae catches Sol who is about to fall and he just so happen to wear the necklace he gave her in the past... Then he says something to her but fudging NO SOUND again.
AND preview where we see Seon Jae being in full jealousy mode with Tae Sung who he still thinks is Sol's boyfriend... Seon Jae getting back his memories in dramatic flashbacks and coming to Sol's rescue AGAIN because yeah the taxi psycho is back in full force except this time it's Tae Sung who's chasing him.

The irony of Sol saying to Seon Jae she believes in faith and never does anything that goes against it when she's been doing it for 14 episodes.
Even in melodramatic scene I can't help but laugh.
So glad, Seon Jae is as stubborn at 34 than when he was 19. Fudge fate and all that crap.
