I love this. This is a truthfully accurate review. I actually lol'd at the "drinking game" suggestion..!!!
What baffles me is that I saw zero enraged comments on ep27. Is there no one outraged abt ep27? They make a heavily pregnant woman who can be in labour any time now, FLY because her husband is injured and in ICU. The danger of flying in that state along with the immense stress they subject her to, it's one of the cruellest things in this drama yet it's considered normal? Dutiful even?
I think you made excellent observations - like this poor child being passed around - that pretty much pinpointed what I mention above. Oh and I would have loved a "no animals were harmed" disclaimer but I guess I expected too much.

Couldn't agree with you more!! Aesthetics in general can make or break a production in my opinion, no matter the budget. Thank you for the recommendation! I will most definitely check this out!

The sequence at ep 16, during the tough training, where he sits down, removes his vest and cries it's just brilliant acting. Outstanding.

Exactly! Also this Igari blush make up on the FL looks so out of place tbh. She looks as if she had a few🍶😅

Damn... It gets worse? I'm still on episode 10 and was waiting for someone to rant about all the interrupted kiss scenes. Do they ever kiss? :( I think there's only one in the flashback episode so far.

I just came here to comment on the very same thing!!! Lives would have been changed if his voice wasn't dubbed on this!!!!!

I'm on ep29 and I'm too scared to keep watching based on the comments...! Why did I get so invested in this??? Their interactions were sooo freaking cute! My heart exploded during some scenes! I kept rewatching! I have now become a Jeremy fan. Also, I read that this was low budget but truly excellent set design! Bravo!

😂 best comment! I feel you!

I think there's a portion of people who watched it for the romance as well. I'm glad you enjoyed it regardless.

So, the ones I'm watching, I'm really struggling with and contemplating whether to drop or not. I don't know if I should recommend any - you can have a look at my profile under Louz's lists> Currently watching.
However, I'm waiting for Call it Love and Road Home episodes to accumulate in order to binge.
So many on my watch list but I'm hesitating.. and hoping for new ones to drop such as Joseon Attorney and My Fireworks on Earth 🙏

You're welcome and sorry for disappointing you!

I found it overall stagnating and the ending was rather rushed, the initial sparkle is lost, even when they do get together (episode 31).
I was certainly looking for more romance, in terms of depth and chemistry and all I found was some smiles and a very few moments of tension. I guess either the actors were held back massively or the scenes were edited massively..

Disappointing romance overall!

They should change the title to "Frustration" .

Exactly!!!

Miao Yuan, Ting Xue, Zhuo Yun Ji ------> annoying as hell and I'm only half way through. I don't know why I keep watching this.

These sort of choices/dynamics perhaps could only work if this was a purely teenage/school drama and the timeline was only a couple of years. The reality is that in a span of a few years so many things happen that change you rapidly. Clearly, the creators have forgotten how it is to be a teenager moving to adulthood.
Unrelatable and unrealistic. Shame, because it had potential and totally missed the build up of a satisfying slow burn romance..

Exactly! E.g. ML asks : "Aren't you hungry?" Translation : "Well, yeah, I'll pay."

True! He reminded me a bit of Doyoung too for some reason..

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Or girl.
