I liked it, but there was something off about it that kept me putting it on hold. I think it's the story, as at one point, it started to drag.
I loved the first 4 episodes for sure <3 They were so awesome and hilarious. I loved the relationship of the leads and chemistry. They were so cute, awesome and had many hilarious moments <3 <3
However, their relationship and development was fast, so at one point, since like they had to do the story of the leads in 16 episodes, they slowed it down. Maybe, that was what put me off.
I loved the parts about the Gumihos, the marble, their powers, their experiences of their lives in different time periods, etc. I think they could have showed more. Especially about Shin Woo Yeo. Like they only showed him as a Gumiho once. Like was Lee Dam never curious to see him in his real form again? I would have definitely asked him and maybe cuddle him. He was really cute <3
Anyway, a happy ending for the leads and I'm glad that he became a human. I kind of knew that since this is a light drama with a happy ending for sure.
Although, they tried to break out hearts when the white truck of doom appeared, Shin Woo Yeo saved Lee Dam and then he disappeared.
Btw, I loved the amnesia part, where Shin Woo Yeo thought that he erased Lee Dam's memories, but he didn't. For a moment, I thought it was going to be the usual, but it wasn't, so I was glad.
I think here was were the story kind of got interesting again, as Lee Dam acted like her memories disappeared, while Shin Woo Yeo became a professor at her college, to keep an eye on her. But, he wanted to be close to her and did not want anyone getting close to her.
Moreover, I loved the other cast and characters. I really loved the characters of Yang Hye Sun, Do Jae Jin and Choi Soo Kyung. I also loved Yang Hye Sun and Do Jae Jin as a couple. For Choi Soo Kyung, they gave a hint that she will become a couple with Jung Suk. I wished they showed more.
Anyway, it’s not bad, I'm glad I finished it and the end.
Loved it! <3 I totally did not expect to love it this much!
Yes, ok it wasn't totally perfect, but I loved it! <3 I loved the songs, dancing, story, characters, couples, friendships, the idol groups, the managers and the not so bad acting.
I did read the webtoon before watching this drama and I loved it. I usually do not like dramas, series or movies that change the story or change the back story of the characters from the original content. In this case the webtoon.
In this 12-episode drama, they literally mashed things together and changed a lot of things, especially regarding the back stories and backgrounds of Lee Ma Ha, Kwon Ryok, Lee Eun Jo, Tea Party, and other things and characters. They did leave lots of things out.
In the webtoon, the plot does go much slower and makes more sense. The webtoon was more dramatic, had darker themes and Lee Ma Ha, Kwon Ryok and Lee Eun Jo's stories were darker and more painful.
The drama was much lighter, but I did not mind. They really did their best to make the story come together and a story that makes sense for a 12-episode drama.
Yes, there were many rushed scenes. However, since I read the webtoon, those rushed scenes, did not bother me since I knew what they referring to.
In this case, I recommend reading the webtoon before the drama.
I usually never recommend that, as when I read the book, manga, webtoon, novel or comic first and then watch a live action adaption; I end up not liking the live action adaption since I compare it to the original content. However, in this case, it makes sense to read the webtoon first.
I loved the beginning of the story and the last few episodes. For the ending, I mostly loved the imagination of Gene and Sib, it was really cute, adorable and hilarious! xD They acted out Snow White, Cinderella and Romeo and Juliet (modern version).
Moreover, I loved the characters and the cast. I loved Gene and Sib as a couple. They were so cute together and their kiss scenes were really awesome <3 <3 I loved Tum and Tiffy (ex-managers) as a couple as well <3
For Aey, I wish he had a happy ending. He did wrong things and it's what he deserves, but I wanted him to be happy at the end. I shipped him with Mhok.
Also, I loved the fact that the story revolved on a filming set, the actors, the writers, the staff on a film set, etc; rather than the usual BL dramas that focus on a school setting. I really love that they are moving away from a school setting BL romance. Although, Sib was a university student and they kind of still mentioned school.
Now, what I did not like in this drama was the story in the middle of the drama. As I mentioned, I loved the beginning and the last few episodes.
However, in the middle of the drama, the story got long, draggy and boring. To be fair, I don't know what I expected to happen, as the process for Gene and Sib getting together, Gene denying his feelings at first, etc had to be done. But, it felt boring and I started to fast forward some scenes.
Then, when Gene and Sib got together, the part of the story where they told their families about their relationship, the production team finding out their relationship, the fans finding out, sales were dropping, Gene and Sib had to be separated for 4 months and then they got together again, etc, made the story alive again.
Anyway, the drama is not perfect, but I enjoyed it. I recommend it ^_^
I love stories like this, when the main character enters a book, enters a novel, enters a written drama script, enters a game, enters a webtoon, enters a drama, goes to the past, time travelling, goes into his/her past self, the characters of the novel or manga became self-aware that they are in a world created by an author, the characters go to the real world, etc.
However, although I loved this drama at first and loved the idea of showing us an arrow for starting the game and a question mark option (?) for help; the drama kind of lost that idea and it became the usual historical drama. However, the difference we see the female lead in the game, Jiang Meng Meng knows that this is a game, and comments on that.
To be fair, the story is not bad. But, it's not that great either. I found myself bored and fast forwarding some episodes. And for a Chinese drama, 24 episodes is considered short. The characters are not bad either.
The drama is fast watch, comedy, light, cute moments and the idea of a person from reality entering into a game.
Also, a happy ending in the game and we assume that they get together in reality. I wish they showed us more like when she went back to reality and more between the leads in reality.
I loved it! <3 Finally watched it after this drama was in my PTW list for 3 years.
The drama is not perfect as it has many cliche moments and cheesy moments. However, it is hilarious, makes you smile, it is light, the island is beautiful, the food looks delicious and the sea is beautiful.
I loved the characters. They are unique, hilarious and loveable <3 The cast really had good chemistry together and have a family feeling. They are excellent actors! The misunderstandings were really hilarious! xD
Also, I loved Oh Kang Soon and Yoo Baek together, good chemistry and cute couple <3
For Choi Ma Dol, I'm glad he let go of Oh Kang Soon and let her be happy. I'm glad he has his own happy ending ^_^
Btw, this drama has a little bit of supernatural as both Yoo Baek and then Choi Ma Dol were given an hourglass that helped them find their love and happiness. The man is like their guardian angel or something.
I mostly love the South Korean movie version and I have watched the Japanese movie remake, the Chinese movie remake and Thailand movie remake. However, I really loved the Philippines version. The other remakes are good as well, but I really loved this one <3
Anyway, I finally got to watch this movie after finding a non-Netflix site to watch it. Pm me if you want to watch it. The site has lots of ads, but if you can get over them, you can get to watch it in subtitles and not bad quality video.
I liked this special. At first, I thought it was not necessary as I wanted to see more between Shi Lei and Jin Yu Zhen. However, we get to understand more what happened between Jin Yu Zhen / "Real" and Yi Zi Tong / E-stone.
I thought that Yi Zi Tong literally left without telling him anything. But, to be fair, it was not totally Yi Zi Tong's fault. He did tell Jin Yu Zhen to go with him. Of course, you cannot stop a person from going somewhere he/she wants to study or stop him/ her from working aboard, etc, especially if it is that person's dream or he/she wants to get more experience.
Anyway, the pain and hurt Jin Yu Zhen experienced made him meet and get together with Shi Lei. So it's a happy ending ^_^
I loved it! <3 It is a simple, light and short story.
I liked the parts about the work they do, where they create jewellery with metallic stones. It would have been interesting if they showed us more, but the drama is short, and the focus was the romance, so we did not get to see a lot.
Anyway, I loved all the couples! <3 The second couple got together quickly and they were really sweet together ^_^
The main couple did take long to get together because of insecurities misunderstandings and tricks, but they got together and happy ending to them ^_^ They're so cute and adorable <3
The drama on the whole is not totally bad and has comedy and sad moments. The story does get draggy from ep 14 onwards, however I liked the beginning and the ending of the story.
Since the main leads fall in love earlier on in the story and they have to fill in the story, it gets draggy between them. Like misunderstandings, sacrificing for each other, no communication, Lu Fang Ning leaving Ling Rui to help him fulfill his dream and then after 6 years she appears with a child. She did not tell him that she was pregnant. Anyway, lots of think made me feel annoyed and fast forwarded lots of episodes.
For the second couple, Lu Yi Yao / "Simon" and Cai Si Yu are really cute together. However, what I don't get is how Lu Yi Yao fell in love with Cai Si Yu. Like he was totally in love with Lu Fang Ning and used Cai Si Yu and then rejected her. Then things happened and they both got drunk and ended up in a room. Then after 6 years, he kept thinking what happened between them all those years ago and suddenly he loves her and misses her? Anyway, throw logic out of the window and happy ending for them.
Mostly in this drama, I loved the characters, couples and the actors. The couples had great chemistry and loved their interactions <3 You can say the whole drama is light with even the villain is forgiven, misunderstandings and hatred between family members is all forgotten. I liked the main couple's child, he is really cute ^_^
