6th time rewatching. Will never get old. I will personally murder Netflix if they ever take it off.
It is about to removed from Netflix, at least in my country.

ok that you liked it but its not a well written drama LOL, sorry. People have dissected the poor writing below…
I don't think I've ever watched a drama that didn't have some plot holes in it. Highly improbably coincidences are very common in dramas or all types. Apparently inconsistent behaviour from a character assumes that the viewer has perfect knowledge of that character AND that character always acts in a manner entirely consistent with their previous behaviour. No human in reality is always entirely consistent with how they act. Even a careful and intelligent person can be tricked. I though the last episode was reasonable.
I've never argued that this drama is PERFECTLY written (because no drama is), but by no reasonable standard can you conclude the writing is VERY poor. I've seen VERY poor writing before, and this most definitely isn't it.
So, once again, I am happy to agree to disagree with you. Even with its flaws, it is a well written drama in my opinion. The fact that this drama has an MDL rating of 9.1 from nearly 62,000 viewers means a hell of a lot more people agree with me that agree with you. Also, when I look at your drama list, you've rated two-thirds of the dramas you've watched as perfect 10s (which includes some very average dramas and plenty with the same issues you criticise in FOE), and then you've rated some excellent dramas with absurdly low scores. If your score is 8 points lower than the average score from tens of thousands of viewers, then it is pretty clear to me that the problem is with you, and not with the tens of thousands of other viewers.

I generally don't like thrillers ... but this drama was really, really good. It was well written and very well acted, with lots of twists. Even though she only had a small role, I thought that Han Soo Yeon's acting was brilliant.

Title GAP
Now I realize why GAP have a low rating here on MDL even if a lot of people watched this series and went gaga..I…
The sex/love scenes in BLANK had the greatest emotional impact on me, of any intimate scene I've ever watched in any movie or drama. And this was achieved with showing essentially no skin. The sex/love scenes in GAP were also good, and even a bit sexier than those in BLANK, but they just didn't have the same emotional impact on me.
The two lessons I've learned is that a sex/love scene doesn't need to be pornographic to have emotional impact, and the two leads in BLANK have incredible chemistry.

On Unforgettable Love Jun 5, 2024
It started off very cute and fluffy, but got progressively sillier and sillier. Some of the scenes seemed to fill no role other than to exend the run time. The main characters devolved into walking tropes, basically card board cut-outs of real people. The child actor was extremely cute, and nearly saved the drama for me, however I realised in the middle of episode 11 that I just didn't care about the characters any more, which is usually a good indication that I should move on to the next drama, which I am doing.

I am going to whinge about a few things. I don't like dramas in which powerful men attempt manipulate and coerce a woman subordinate to them into a relationship. This creepy behaviour is more suitable for a serious adult melodrama or thriller, but just doesn't belong in a fluffy rom-com. Also, the subplot of the fuck-boy giving up his promiscuity because he's found true love is also more suited to a more adult drama than a fluffy rom-com in my opinion. Lastly, I didn't like the fact that Sheng Hui Zi's character said she needed to go on a weight loss program (to be a bridesmaid), when she is already extremely skinny. She looks like she'd be 30 kg soaking wet. I just don't think that is a very good message to be sending.

For me, unforgettable love is very forgettable.

I've generally found the MDL scores of dramas a reasonable indication of the quality of each drama. But the score here is a joke. This is a very well written and very well acted drama. It is easily in the top 10% of KDramas I've ever watched. Clearly, some morality police didn't like the title, and scored it low without watching it. If the plot summary remotely interests you, start watching it and then decide if it is for you or not. Avoiding this drama because of the score it has here would be a mistake.

Overall, I really enjoyed this drama, even though some parts of it were a little bit silly. I didn't find the ending very satisfactory. It's like the writers didn't want to wrap up the show. 8½/10.

Title 23.5
It was a fun show and an easy watch, but its a level below "Blank" in terms of quality in my opinion.
So rather than acknowledge that your accusations were factually wrong (which would have been the honest and mature thing to do), you chose rather to rather just spew out a vague accusation against fans of the show. What exactly do you mean that "15 is OK" for Blank fans. I'm a Blank fan, so please enlighten me what I think 15 is OK for. You also made the demonstrably false claim that the ENTIRE lesbian community has boycotted this series. Are you really this clueless? Look at the viewership numbers. Look at the comments on the various platforms and forums. You're delusional if you think that is even close to being true.
Also, I'm still waiting for you to explain to me how you're so familar with the story line, the quality of the production and the drama's audio quality if you've never watched the drama. I have to admit that I don't think you're a very honest person. God bless yall.

Title Go Go Squid!
I WAS really enjoying this drama and even though Han Shang Yan was always a bit of an inconsiderate jerk and a bully, I was able tolerate him because I was expecting him to grow up and act like an actual human later in the drama. But about half way through the drama, he became worse. He gas-lighted Tong Nian and was unnecessarily cruel towards her. Sadly, Tong Nian is a door mat so she just tolerates and accepts all of this mistreatment, which doesn't really send a great message to female viewers.
I see the top two reviews says things like, "Adorable Couple" and "everything is perfect". I guess people like different things, but for me, toxic, bullying, selfish, cruel, gas-lighting behaviour is neither adorable or pefect. But each to their own I guess.
I dropped this drama mid way through episode 26.

Title Go Go Squid! Spoiler
he does. you will have to be patient till Han Shanhgyan becomes more human.
I'm watching episode 22 now, and he's ghosting his girlfriend completley. This is worse than him being sexist and condescending towards her. I'm wondering if he's 30 years old or 13 years old.
And in episode 23, he's acting like a total jerk towards her, unnecessarily and cruelly hurting her. He's just a gaslighting, bully. This SHOULD be enough for any self-respecting woman to tell him to go f_ck himself and permanently end the relationship. But a doormat that doesn't respect herself won't do that. If his mistreatment of Tong Nian continues much longer, I'm going to drop this drama - I just don't enjoy watching men mistreating women.
After such a promising start to the drama, I've found I just can't tolerate Han Shang Yan's toxic behaviour and Tong Nian's doormat personality any more. So, I'm going to drop this one and try something else.

should i start my mister after this for same vibe?any recommendation will be helpful
"My Mister" is the best drama I've ever watched. You definitely need to give it a watch. I also agree with the suggestion from lemonade for "Lost"

Title Go Go Squid!
Almost half way through the drama, and I'm really enjoying it. I will say however that Han Shang Yan has the EQ of a rock and is sexist and condescending towards Tong Nian at times. Fortunately for him, Tong Nian goes into door mat mode when he behaves like that, so he gets away with it (must be an Asian thing). I'm hoping he experiences some character growth and starts to treat Tong Nian with some more respect.

I dropped Something in the Rain because I simply didn't enjoy watching Yoon Jin Ah getting abused and mistreated continuously. When I learned that the drama had been remade, I thought I'd give it a watch. The Chinese version is definitely much less toxic/angsty than the original and I quite enjoyed it, although I found it started to drag in the final episodes. 8/10 from me.
