This is like the beta version of 2521 and Strong Girl Bong Soon!
I tried, just like the writers, but I failed, just like them!I couldn't watch more than 1.5 episode! I watched some really bad Kdramas over the years, and I only finished those, because I loved the actors. Well, this show doesn't have anyone who force me to watch it till the end.
The sport aspect was boring, unlike in 2521, the female lead is not likable or interesting like Bong Soon or Hui Do.
I didn't find anything captivating in this show, IT LACKS THE CHARM, it feels forced, and after 2 episodes, I can already see how it's gonna end. It's better if I don't waste my time.
Overrated drama, for sure!

Just be yourself Korean *Mia Thermopolis!
If you're interested in this movie, this is how I can describe it in one sentence!Don't expect some overcomplicated love drama or storyline, this is like any other coming of age movie with good writing and a feelgood vibe without any big problems. If I have to compare it to something, I'd say, this was like (LITTLE SPOILER INCOMING!!!) the "20th Century Girl" with Happy Ending.
The movie doesn't offer much, except a likable group of friends and a supporting family. I really liked the dynamic between Seri and her father! Everyone were great, and even tho the movie is 2 hours long, it was enough to develop their journey properly and see how close they are. They really did go for 100 miles for each other, and that was refreshing to see.
The chemistry between the cast is top-notch, Shin Eunsoo and Gong Myung didn't have a hard time to sell their romance, and the rest of the crew were on par as well.
"Love Untangled" doesn't go deep into their lives, especially Yunseok's side story with his dad, but I didn't feel we needed more, because that wasn't really the point of the movie, and I'm glad they emphasized that he knew everything about the message that Seri left, because it was weird at first, so props to the writer for not ignore it.
Overall: It's predictable plot, but we don't love these type of movies, because the story is complex, it's pure fun, especially if you're a 90s kid.
Lastly:
*How many of you understood the reference? It's from "The Princess Diaries" movie, because I feel like this was kinda similar to that, except, Seri is not a royal blood.
