Adore, adore Jung So Min - it's been two years from her last drama (altho she's been busy with a movie and theater). Jo Han Chul ? Absolute ICING on the cake. Can't wait.
I don't know why but because (Oh Yeon Seo's) acting was soo bad in Cafe minamdang i couldn't love her in this…
I hesitated to watch this drama simply because I disliked her so much in Cafe. But I think it was the character, not acting talent - because I really enjoy her in this drama.
Watched ep. 1 and looking forward to watching Ep. 2 when I have time.
Every scene that included Shin Ha-kyun or Jin Goo (briefly) was snap crackle, pop. The young duo? Bland. I suppose the older man with-a-mysterious-past and youngster is required to appeal to a broader audience, but hope the script/plot makes it a worthwhile watch.
why are the people who like this so hurt about people not liking this? 😭 some of us are strong-headed and want…
"why are the people who like this so hurt about people not liking this? "
Because people are human and when they are passionate about something (politics, a particular movie, a specific idol, etc.) they take it very personally. I really enjoyed the first 2 episodes, but that ridiculous scene at the playground in Ep. 3 was lazy writing - went on too long, no witty dialogue. I understand the appeal of the main actor (never watched him before), but he's not able to carry the entire drama. Dropped. 😥😥
I finally finished a week ago and forgot to comment. Gave it 8⭐. Enjoyable story. Stress-free (no silly cliff-hangers). Go Kyung Po is always, always a great character actor. Plus: classic kdrama actors Shin Jung Keun (the ultimate father figure), and Go Pyu Pil (he seems to be in everything! Queen of Tears; Tarot; Midnight Studio) provided an entertaining - if not earth-shaking - story.
I was discouraged when I saw the low rating, but I still decided to watch it bc of the two leads. I really enjoyed…
The biggest complaint seems to be that the "hook" used to get people watching (ko Kyung Po playing a character couldn't lie) gradually morphed into something . . . .less slapstick and more family focused. It is not stressful or full of tension - which is one reason I'm still taking my time to finish it when I can simply sit down and enjoy it unfold.
Just finished watching and I won't lie the last 3 episodes took alot for me to finish ,one issue I have with this…
I finally started Ep. 10 last night - and fell asleep again. Realized that this isn't meant to be anything but a amusing journey w/very little tension or risk-taking. I hope to find time this weekend to sit down and simply enjoy the final episodes. Which, for me, is saying quite a bit - several dramas on my "currently watching" list that really should be moved to "on-hold" - and eventually "dropped".
Oh Yeon So just sucks. i wish she wasnt casted for this drama. she's a mood killer for me
Well, S**t - I rarely remember names (or the outdated photos), but looked her up because of your comment. I've dropped prior dramas (Cafe Minamdang and Sassy something) because I couldn't take her any more. It doesn't have a romance tag, so I'll give it a try and hope that the other characters and story will keep me watching
I really enjoyed it, especially Choi Jin Hyuk (the older male lead) and Choi Min soo (the bad guy) who always delivers a jaw-dropping performance. Some of the accounting/financial jargon was complex - the Korean version included subtitles and English subs also helped - so occasionally needed to pause in order to read the complete description. But it always made sense - unlike some other recent "corporate" dramas. I gave it 9⭐.
Gosh, I wish I would like this drama as much as everyone else. But This does not interest me at all.
I enjoyed the 1st half but I've kinda given up as well. I'm reading comments and will re-watch a few scenes when it's all over. I have my favorites (NOT the main couple) but the plot twists solely based on fantasy time travel aren't enough to support the whole drama.
To me, it looks like Gwi-Joo can't change the past or the change the timeline. Whatever happened in Da-Hae's past,…
I believe the lottery ticket proved otherwise. Unlike the other events (shopping mall, flowers, the stairwell) that wasn't anything she told him about before he did it - it was his own idea to cheat.
We could see many times in the flashbacks that In Na's eyes became blue just before the accident. And she was…
Did I say I "hated" it??? No.
I've watched a lot of kdramas that involve 'mysteries" - what happened in the past? who is trying to kill someone? Who is the traitor?
A well-written story gradually unpeels the onion, displaying layer upon layer of facts (clues) - whether actions, statements or internal thoughts.
My dislike of this one fragmented scene is that the writer is still hiding what Se Yeon spoke out loud (which Yi-na heard) and what Se Yeon "thought" (which Yi-na may or may not have "heard"). The viewer knows that Yi-na is traumatized by that sequence of events - but we still don't know the precise nature of her trauma. So, we will get at least one more episode with another fragment of that scene - that's why I call it lazy because it is apparently irrelevant to the main story of the main couple.

We have now watched bits and pieces of that event. Producers are playing games with us - which I always resent.
In Episode 1, Yi-na looked into the mirror, saw her mother's eyes and her eyes turned blue. No words were spoken/heard. There was a blinding flash of light and then the car crashes over the barrier, the mother screamed (implying it wasn't intentional) and the wipers were also working (rain?).
In Episode 7, we see mom actually talking. Then we hear more words - it's not clear if she is speaking or thinking. Yi-na looks into the mirror but her eyes do not turn blue. Next is her mother swerving violently
Did her mother say out loud "Daddy is not coming with us" or, did she simply say aloud "Daddy. . ." and the rest was her thinking that Yi-na heard even though the blue did not appear in her eyes.
So, viewer still doesn't know the precise sequence of speech/thoughts/blinding white light, etc.
Sometimes, a writer/director can try to be too clever - it's called lazy writing.
Jumped the shark w/ep. 8. Several interesting scenes and dialogue with the NON-OTP couple, but the so-called "romance"?? Unless there is some sort of "alternate universe" at work, it's unsalvageable. 😒😒😒

Not my idea of "romantic".
