The White Truck of Doom

I think he's very handsome, but looks oldish paired with her.
I like both of the leads but yeah, the chemistry is weak or not there, maybe it's partly the writing. The storyline is original but the writing is weak tea.

is there a site that has english subs?

Both you and your daughter have great insight! Thanks for sharing.

why kidding. Kimmy is accurately describing the situation. In South Korea, women workers are treated vastly different than women in the US.
Just recently the new President announced plans to decrease work hours.
How many civil service workers in the US work 16 + hour shifts 7 days a week?

don't know yet but there sure is chemistry. I think there will be. This drama is totally different from the average kdrama. It is well written. Another commentor pointed out that it is actually written by a real judge. It is funny, serious, emotional, but not overly heavy. It won't make you cringe. You'll feel Ahah! moments and feel like you've got a hero to cheer on.

I drop a lot of dramas. This one is trash. It's the writing, it's just crappy.
Shamefully I'm still watching it. :O
I fast forward A LOT! lol.
FF = citizen's edit.

isn't your post a spoiler?

agreed. There probably should be a notice on every page about avoiding posting spoilers. At the very least people can mark their comments as spoilers thus sparing the rest of us. You can go to the post and report it as a spoiler.

Yes, Thanks, I found that and finished it a few weeks ago.
→ Now Cinderella Chef is stuck subbed up only to ep 19 because Viki's "trying" to get a license for it. The volunteer subber stopped.

In the first 8 minutes, this drama had me laughing so hard my stomach hurt!
And I rewatched that segment 3 times before I went on. There was another part in the first episode later that also just flat out cracked me up. This drama is so well written. And it flows beautifully.

thanks, that makes me want to give this a try even more. :)

I really like him. I think he has great potential in dramaland.
took the time to listen to some of his music today, he has the voice of an angel.
It's hard to reconcile that voice with this cranky rich guy.

There's something different about this drama. Otherwise I wouldn't watch it.
→ The male lead Yoo Chan literally can't recognize anyone's face. And there's a back story to that but it isn't revealed immediately. I thought his acting to be very good. By the way, Yoo Chan is played by actor/singer Suho, a member and leader of the South Korean-Chinese boy group Exo and its sub-unit Exo-K. He has the voice of an angel!
→ The female lead, Kim Bo Ra, played by actress Ha Yeon Soo is ok, sometimes her part is cute or sympathetic, or spunky but sometimes written with some cringiness. I think it was the writing for her part that put me off initially, but now I think it may been necessary to lay the foundation for future eps.
→ The side characters provide some seasoning to the story.
→ If you're not sure about watching this drama, I'd say give it a try, then decide. I'm up to episode 8 now and hooked.

viki seeking licensing: Follow the channel (we need at least 600 followers)

uh you should write reviews on more dramas. Really good.
Love your outspoken informal style.
Gets to the point.

ok, I've been trying to decide whether to watch this drama, and your comment just helped me make up my mind. Starting it today. Thanks.

sorry for some reason I thought this was a re-make of Chinese dramam Memory Lost - but guess I'm wrong. :(

https://kisskh.at/19030-memory-lost

is it better or about as good as Chinese version?

I'm up to Ep 14 for now. Some of the plot is ridiculous. I won't spoil it but gosh some side characters do unrealistic things, ugh. If this were a fantasy drama or comedy maybe some of the actions would be ok, but they kinda hurt the quality of the drama.
→ The actors playing Americans are cheezy.
They don't meet then fall in love. Luo Yi's character is already in love with someone else, his childhood sweet-heart.
Still, this has it's good parts, and I can make it through by fast forwarding (a lot!) of the filler and weird stuff. I like Luo Yi and Tiffany Tang but am disappointed in the writing of this drama.

if you have nothing else to watch, this isn't too bad if you fast forward through at least half of every episode. There's no chemistry here.
