So Ra has main character energy. Of she was the lead in a show, she'd be the grumpy part of grumpy x sunshine. It's just because she's the side character that we can see her so objectively. It makes me wonder about other such leads I've seen.
Thinking of starting this: what's it like? Does it drag? I've never been able to complete a sageuk before because all the things I like about them change in the second half. What's the romance/comedy/plot ratio?
Thanks for bringing up this important point! I refuse to watch shooting stars because of that. Could you please…
Same, I refuse to watch shooting stars because of that too. Basically, she said that in Auschwitz, when people were given a glass of water, they drank half and washed their face with half. The word excrement was also used. Then she said she read it in a magazine. This was all part of a very superficial conversation. It was so unbelievably offensive, honestly. Who in their right mind would use it to make a point about grooming? Disgusting. I hate whoever wrote it.
I cringed when Bora asked Su-Hyeok to join them for a drink. Can she not navigate tough situations without alcohol? I thought initially they would address it somehow, but nothing seems to have happened.
Another thought I had while watching today's episode: Bora relies so heavily on her pretty privilege, and she'll probably never acknowledge it. I know her character is not supposed to be some down-to-earth person, but I feel like they've gone too far making her seem like anything's justified by her Feelings™️
I loved Touch Your Heart and I was just thinking how there's no other fluffy drama that I've watched quite like it, and while this has a bit of a different vibe, it's still got the same heart and I love it!
