Despite carrying the show on her back, working relentlessly to earn the lead role, endured poor management, won multiple awards in her debut film role, and secured a Baeksang for her breakthrough performance. Yet, The KIM HYE YOON is 'overshadowed' by her male leads.
BE SO FUCKING FR

saying this as if Kim hye yoon isn't the most gorgeous woman ever is ridiculous. bws would literally hate you

oh btw its a fantasy rom-com, emphasis on ROMCOM, just incase you forgot to check the genre
Obviously you are going to see more romance than family drama

I am guessing its pointless to argue with someone who is stuck on being different and hating on a character this bad. I rather not argue with people who can't understand media literacy. <3

She saved her house, helped her brother avoid burnout, and prevented her mother from getting hurt. Despite being unable to cure her grandma's dementia, she spent time with her. She even helped Taesung in her own way. Wtf do you mean she has no regard for others?!?
She is one of the most selfless characters in the show.

Lovely Runner is a show that can and should be critiqued, but it's important to offer thoughtful critiques. Your arguments are reduced to the main female character being "annoying," when in fact the show has its own set of flaws. Instead of providing a critical analysis, you are offering nonsensical reasons such as "the female lead is illogical and annoying." While everyone is entitled to their opinions, your opinion is misguided and fails to reflect what the show truly portrays.

He is more of a movie actor

Oh my god! Please I blocked it out of my memory, like the plot of that drama was messed up and they couldve shown Namsoon’s power in a better way other than making her a completely bubbly character BUT Blaming her for picking a good guy over a guy who is constantly violent and even threatened her mother is so stupid. Like I get BWS is handsome and a good actor but like let's be serious

I just read the most hate-filled review about this show and I just have to say, I understand that people have different views and different opinions about stuff, but do these people actually watch the show expecting it to be flawless, and completely barren of any humane decisions??? because I thought we were all for complicated characters that make decisions just because.

There is one character that I would always defend and that is Lim Sol, she went through hell and back, even during her original life, she went through hell and had to live with the consequence of actions that she did not do, she is allowed to be sensitive and cry, blaming her for being emotional shows how much less empathy you have for someone, here is a woman jumping through time to save someone that saved her life, trying to save herself from that actions that others made.

Praising Sun Jae doesn't make you a better analyst of the show, but bashing him doesn't make you one either. you have two people, constantly choosing each other over and over again because they want to do it.

I saw the reviewer mention how Sol didn't do anything for her family, oh I forgot how she saved her mother from grieving for her child, saved her from the scars she didn't deserve, saved her brother from falling into burnout and her actions caused him and her best friend to find love in each other (no matter how cringe they were, they were cringe together), she also saved sun Jae's father from losing his precious son. she can’t stop her grandmother's disease, it is not possible to cure Alzheimer's.
The whole point of the show is that Sol is the worst time traveler, she messes up because she doesn't know the rules, she doesn't know when she might leave, and she doesn't know if what she does can kill or save someone because she doesn't know it.

She can stop time, but do you think she would remember that when she is running for her life??? I beg you to understand that she is traumatized not just by her incident but by seeing sun jae die because of the same driver. I don't know how you can’t understand that. Sol is sensitive because she can be, there is nothing wrong with being emotional at all, this whole concept that women are not strong if they are emotional is shit.

I love that they showed how sensitive Sol and sun jae were, it made them endearing, it made them more interesting for me. they were individuals outside their relationship with each other, In the end, Sol earned the life she yearned for, the career she badly wanted, so did Sun Jae, the OG Sunjae didn't get the life he wanted because Sol wasn't in it, she was in his mind but never in his arms, but in the end he too got his biggest wish for life.

I do recognize the need for better representation of disabled individuals, and while the show could have addressed this aspect more effectively, I don't believe the portrayal of Sol's journey implies that her disability defines her. It's important to understand the nuances and the challenges she has overcome.

Overall, while the show may have flaws, I find that dismissing it as overrated overlooks its meaningful aspects. Constructive criticism that acknowledges both its strengths and areas for growth would be more valid and valuable in assessing its impact.

Omg you are looking at the wrong drama then. Its a drama filled with love triangles, extra marital affairs, and complicated characters. This is the farthest thing away from a sweet love story

Kim Jiwon and Kim Go Eun

Girl this comment wasn't meant for you?!? Why tf are you commenting when I was replying to the OP!?

I pity u tbh. I bet if I knock your head its going to echo. I realised its useless to even talk to you.

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOO MF why do I have to prove my ethnicity to you?!? Kindly go screw yourself 💕

Man, I have never set foot in America. WTF are you even talking about?!?
I am an Asian woman, living in Asia and I love being an Asian. I don't really have to defend my ethnicity to a bigoted misogynist who is a waste of human space <3

I am sorry that you were disappointed but you ironically made me want to watch this even more 😭🤞

This article doesn't take away the fact that Kim Hyeyoon is one hell of an actress, a really popular one at that. I don't get why the media adds this narrative that she needs to be pitied.
She is a beaksang winner, and literally named as one of the Kim troika in Korean entertainment right now. Although I would've liked to see more interviews emphasizing her and her achievements, these types of interviews doesn't take away her popular demand and great talent.
Kim Hyeyoon, I am gonna get you that second baeksang queen!!

I agree!! Like the entirety of K industry depend on women to make stories for women yet they still go through this thing

Can you just get off my replies now?!? Like we get it you like beautiful women and see them as nothing but objects. Have fun kissing men’s feet ig

I ain't reading all of that you bigoted misogynist. Go live with your perfect little man’s world.
Also, you mention beauty again and again as if every woman in this world isn't beautiful.
I am an asian women telling you that women DO NOT have the same opportunities as men. Men made the standards and cry about how they can't express themselves.
When women say they want to be seen more as a person suddenly you say femnism is shit.
Take your fucking bigoted ass to kindergarten, maybe you'll learn something from the little kids respecting people.
Also I have watched dramas for over 7+ years, I know what I am talking about.

Have you ever heard of journalism?! Evolution?! This is a new project of hers, she worked so hard on. So instead of asking about HER efforts, the interviewer focused on men she worked with in the past. If you have read the entire interview, the journalist hasn't asked a word about how the project was for her instead focused on who she is dating and worked with in the past!
Also why should actresses be obliged to be accessories to live out these “gossip-loving teenage girls ” fantasies?!?
Hope this helps 💕
