Love movies

Thanks Umair! Interesting about private torrent tracker. Learn something every day.
Try "Love is Sweet". romantic, many episodes, Chinese drama, one of my rewatch favorites. Also "My Little Happiness" Chinese is really good. No tropes. Will look into "SweetTeeth".

Too many choices but your MDL ratings >8 with 1K+ users and good subs is a good search. However, I've seen MDL ratings <8 that were excellent.

Oh well, can't see them all.

Yes, the $fanbase$! The series had some interesting moments but if one looks at the entire series as a trilogy, then maybe. But I can't get into that for sure. There are no episodes to rewatch.

Right now I'm watching "One, the woman". I'm having hard time understanding the plot. The volunteered translation seems to not be right. First time that's happened. However it's not boring.

Do you have Viki.com or IQ.com? There are some really good ones on each. On Viki, "You raise me up" is a fantastic 8 episode little gem. And of course Hometown Cha cha Cha on Netflix. Have you seen any of these?

Thanks for your response - no not a fan-fan for sure. :-)

A real gem. Only 8 episodes which go by very fast. I loved every minute of it and Yoon Shi Yoon was more than perfect in it. A rewatch for sure. No silly tropes, no going away for 5 years, all realistic, natural and lesson learning. I give it a 10, in its realism, simplicity and natural. Watch it, you won't regret it.

i finished the series last night. What can I say? The romance was always sweet. They had enormous patience with one another. However, there was very little tension between them. All 30 episodes, love, respect, (repeat).

ML was special in every way - his love was eternal but since I didn't watch (and won't watch) the prequel I don't understand some of the comments. Ditto for the FL.

I guess I compare this series with "Love is Sweet". I couldn't wait see the next episode. There was a lot of tension and resolution.

In "Forever and Ever" it was the same love, episode after episode.

The only problems were his and her families. They injected tension but otherwise, the same throughout the episodes. Became predictable.

Why?!

I’ve have seen enough of women drinking to excess in Korean movies and dramas. Nope this is not for me to watch!

You're right. The score is too low. The acting is so real; the story is topical, and compared to Hometown cha... I think it is just as good. I like both dramas. Thank you for saying that.

And his reaction was equally as cute!

Your English is perfect!!!! You have a good point, she was decisive until she met Wataru - then it went all down the hill, so to speak. She was torn between telling Wataru that she loved him and wanting him to improve.

Maybe she could have hinted to him how she felt but still waiting for him to improve himself. (But I'm not the writer)

I would have liked the writer not to wait until the end of Ep 11, but to give us Ep 10 and 11 a gradual change in her so it didn't feel too chocked at the end.

Although the ending was really cute.

Darn, I wish I could have said it better! You covered it all very well.

I liked the series but felt frustrated by her indecisive nature. It wasn't until the absolute end that she sprung forth and became re-energized.

Unfortunately I'm watching the series from an American viewpoint which is widely different from a Japanese one.

Dean is always handsome and a good actor. I loved him in "Hapimari: Happy Marriage!? "(2016). Watched it on Amazon, of all places.

Wataru's growth was worth watching. I liked that there were no villains and I think that is because there were only 11 episodes. No extra time for those tropes. That is one reason I like J/dramas, short and to the point.
For me, it was not a rewatch, I gave it an 8.

Thanks again for your summary.

Yes, 14 long years?? I don't know what the writers were thinking of spending so much time on his love for her and I don't think it is finished, from the previews, she wants to spend some time trying to understand their college relationship. Why??? Dumb. Oh well, I still love this series so much that I can always fast forward :-)

I agree, why keep showing those college days, boring and we know it will go nowhere. Enough.

Thank you for making this comparison. Even though I didn't read the book, you brought out the differences. Also you write so very well.

I'm on Ep 15. I so agree with you! He is a nerd's nerd. They are not easy to communicate with but once they understand then good for both!

I am really enjoying watching this drama. Things are slow but that's nice too. Allen Ren is an interesting actor, with his sad eyes - I will have to watch more of his stuff.

Bai lu is as good as she was in Love is Sweet which was also one of my most favorite dramas and certainly more alive!! (Leo Luo makes things alive)

Very well said. An intelligent post, thank you!

You got it right!!!! Money speaks. I'm just up to ep 5 and I hope he loosens up.

Unfortunately, Kim Soo Hyun would have been the perfect ML. Love the American original version.

Yes, Aaron Yan is gorgeous. Agree!

Yes it disappeared. I watched Ep 1,2 and and all of a sudden it disappeared. Thanks for letting me know that I am not crazy :-)

Looking forward to this! Loved Han So Hee in Nevertheless, consistently portraying a young insecure artist - with Song Kang as the ML who was also very convincing in his role.
