The makers took the execution too lightly.

Rape is one of the worst forms of violence, but even sexual harassment can leave someone deeply traumatized. It can shatter a person's trust in the world and in themselves. They may still be alive, but they often feel emotionally empty, as if a part of their soul has been taken away.

That's why I'm disappointed that the female lead isn't killing the school bullies who were the main culprits behind all of this. From my perspective, they deserve to face the consequences of what they did, and it feels unsatisfying that they haven't.

Everyone who played a role in what happened to her sister and ultimately led her to that horrific fate should have been killed, in my opinion. Instead, she's letting them go, and that's a huge disappointment for me.

Even the revenge and action scenes don't feel impactful or satisfying. I expected much stronger consequences for the people responsible.

This drama shouldn't be called "No Mercy " it should be called "Mercy". She keeps letting the people who deserve punishment go, which completely defeats the title. That was a huge disappointment for me.

It felt unrealistic how she reached someone so powerful with such low-level, unconvincing action. Instead of earning her way to the top through her own abilities, it seemed like the story simply cleared a path for her. It felt as if the route was created for the female lead rather than her fighting her way through it herself. i'm not impressed with action also.

All of these issues made the story feel much weaker. There was almost no sense of tension or thrilling , and the revenge lacked the intensity I was expecting. As a result, the drama never felt truly thrilling or emotionally gripping.

smooth nice drama

It’s a nice drama with an old-fashioned theme. The story revolves around a woman whose fiancé betrays her and marries one of his relatives the same relative who has secretly loved her for many years. She’s like a Cinderella, until her prince charming enters her life and changes everything. He solves all her problems and fills her life with beauty and happiness.

The couple shares a wonderful relationship, and their family is generally good too, with just a few exceptions. The storyline is engaging from beginning to end. Some characters try to bully her, but they don’t succeed for long.

I watched it in fast-forward mode because I didn’t find much novelty in it everything flowed smoothly, without any confusing twists or moments that required pausing to understand. The plot is clear and easy to follow, with less conflict compared to other dramas.

The only complaint I have is about the production quality. The lighting, costumes, sets, and hairstyles clearly showed that the production wasn’t up to the mark, which made the visuals look a bit dull and less appealing.

performance was good by all the actors

Overall, it’s a nice, feel-good drama with a simple and satisfying story.

Booked for passionate romance game , Landed in family drama

🎥 First Impressions

I clicked on this drama mainly because of Cheng Cheng. And honestly, the very first scene and its description were enough to hook me. It starts with an intimate moment and immediately reveals that the female lead is sleeping with her boyfriend’s twin brother. That twist alone raises so many questions why is she doing this, and how did it happen? Definitely an attention-grabber from the start.

📖 What to Expect

If you're into passionate romance, this drama offers good kissing scenes and an intense love game dynamic. The early episodes are bold, emotionally charged, and full of tension between the characters.

🎭 Characters & Acting

The male lead delivered a strong and convincing performance you can clearly feel his emotions. The female lead, on the other hand, felt a bit lacking in some scenes. However, their chemistry together was still enjoyable and believable, especially in the romantic moments.

❤️ What I Loved

I especially loved the male lead’s performance and the bold, well-done kissing scenes. He carried many of the emotional moments, and his expressions were on point. The romantic tension was one of the show’s strongest elements.

😐 What Didn’t Work for Me

The biggest letdown was the shift in the storyline. It started with a thrilling love game between the two twin brothers and the female lead but halfway through, the plot suddenly changed to a completely different angle involving family rivalry and a lost daughter. That shift felt disconnected. Also, the scumbag twin didn’t face any real consequences or even show guilt in right amount , which made the something incomplete.

✅ Final Verdict

Overall, it’s a good drama at least in the first half, when it sticks to its original theme. The love triangle and bold romantic tension were gripping, but the sudden plot change in the second half took away some of its impact. Still, worth watching for the performances and emotional drama.

Don’t waste your time, mood, or energy on this drama.

It’s utterly foolish and frustrating. The story revolves around a girl who returns to her parental home shortly after marriage. Her family treats her cruelly, assuming she is poor and helpless, unaware that she is actually the daughter-in-law of a wealthy and influential family.

Later, her husband visits her parental home, and even he is mistreated by her family. The most frustrating part is that despite belonging to a powerful, rich family, both the girl and her husband continue to suffer throughout the drama. There's no bodyguard, no one who recognizes their high status, and no action taken to stop the abuse.

It isn’t until the very end that their influential family members show up, and only then do people realize their true background. But by then, the damage is already done. In reality, a powerful person doesn't need to prove their identity or struggle to get justice getting someone punished should be as easy as snapping fingers. But this drama ignores all logic and drags the characters through unnecessary torture, making it a foolish and highly frustrating watch.

Ah, my love, salute to your first glance.

The story has a slow pace, starting with the fresh, new feeling of love – the innocence, the hesitation, the longing to be with the person you love. It delicately handles the fear of the relationship breaking apart, understanding one's own feelings, and then waiting for the other person to understand. When the feelings are not reciprocated, it’s about gracefully letting go of your love. These innocent emotions are portrayed in the drama, showing how two people cultivate their relationship.

its really good recommended

Parents : Guardians of Guilt and Extend of Love

Movie Summary: IN FEW POINTS

1. Perspective on Justice: As long as wrongdoings affect others, they often go unnoticed. However, when the tables turn, it suddenly feels like a grave injustice.

2. Karma's Play: The movie emphasizes that you will inevitably reap what you sow.

3. Unconditional Parental Love: Parents' love for their children knows no bounds, even when those children have strayed down dark paths.

4. The Power of Influence: The film illustrates how bad company can lead even a good person astray.

5. Cost of Meddling: Never interfere in others' affairs, or you may end up facing the consequences.

6. Unexpected Twists: The story unfolds in a straightforward manner, but two pivotal twists elevate it to another level: one involving a parent’s encounter with a store lady and the other being the twist at the end. These moments transform the movie into something truly memorable.

7. A Critique of Professional Portrayals: One lingering complaint is the film's portrayal of professions or organizations, which often disregards the actual rules and regulations tied to them.

Overall, this is a compelling movie that everyone should watch.

this was the 1st show where mike aum make pair and their chemistry, pair, loved by all over the world. cause of that they again paired for "kiss me". which is also a tremendous work of them, people often went to "kiss me" after watching "full house". as sources declare "full house & kiss me " both are highest watching show

but i came here after watching "kiss me" which is them after project of "full house". after watching "kiss me" i became fan of mike and aum i really loved them even one sec of the scene of " kiss me " drama i can't criticize the team of "kiss me "

so my expectation is very high but i'm disappointed here. i confessed haven't watch "full house " Korean. so i'm not judging/comparing it to Korean version . what i expected is their chemistry which is there , but what i expected which is not there is great script writing. confusing writing , logically not acceptable.

first two episodes are not eye locking if I've n't watched "kiss me" i wouldn't taken the risk to watch further episodes but it not disappointed me in certain things . and i went through 15 episodes which are really great. but what after it i get silly/logic-less/confusing script writing . until the 15 episode i really want to give it 10/10 but further episodes change my mind and i given it 6/10

-> if you have given promise to stand beside her always in any situation that doesn't mean you should be her hubby there are many ways(friend/brother) to be with her(is he insane)
->no matter how way you confessed your love she need a proper confession (is she dumb)
-> last two -three episodes flash backs irritate me

as a fan of aum and mike i still want to give it 10/10 but then it'll be unfair review

ACTING-----
Aum 8/10
Mike 10/10

after this may be i'm hated by many people who really admire aum/ mike/ full house but love you all

Grace in Duty, Gap in Thrill, Beauty in Emotion

🎬✨ 𝓜𝔂 𝓡𝓮𝓪𝓼𝓸𝓷 𝓯𝓸𝓻 𝓗𝓲𝓽𝓽𝓲𝓷𝓰 ‘𝓟𝓵𝓪𝔂’ 𝓸𝓷 𝓣𝓱𝓲𝓼 𝓞𝓷𝓮✨🎬

I like military-themed dramas especially when they involve love stories centered around military personnel. That alone was a simple yet strong enough reason for me to give this one a try.

💚💂‍♂️ 𝓦𝓱𝓪𝓽 𝓘 𝓛𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓭 𝓐𝓫𝓸𝓾𝓽 𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓓𝓻𝓪𝓶𝓪💂‍♂️💚

I absolutely love military dramas, and this one included several of my favorite elements:

⟡🪖 Military life and training
⟡🏅 Military competitions
⟡🤝 Bonds of friendship among soldiers
⟡😄 Light-hearted teasing and camaraderie
⟡💘 Romantic relationships involving military personnel
⟡ 🧑‍✈️ Senior-junior dynamics
⟡📏 Military discipline, hierarchy, and lifestyle
⟡👬 Not only are military personnel and their teams like a family, but their actual families also share the same deep bond. Just as soldiers support one another, their families, too, stand by and support each other like one united family.
𓂃 I appreciate when a profession is portrayed with realism and dignity not only the professional aspects, but their emotional and personal lives too.
𓂃 𝑨 𝒔𝒐𝒍𝒅𝒊𝒆𝒓’𝒔 𝒍𝒐𝒗𝒆 𝒔𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒚 𝒊𝒔 𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝒎𝒚 𝒇𝒂𝒗𝒐𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒎𝒆𝒔.
𓂃 The story was engaging at the beginning the characters were well-woven, and their arcs thoughtfully developed.

🚫🧐 𝓦𝓱𝓪𝓽 𝓓𝓲𝓭𝓷’𝓽 𝓦𝓸𝓻𝓴 𝓕𝓸𝓻 𝓜𝓮🧐🚫

While the drama began with promise, there were several things that disappointed me:

📉 After the pirates hostage situation:

🕳️The story began to lose momentum.
🕳️ The pacing and direction shifted, weakening the original intensity.

❌ The character "Han Yu Hang" :

⨯ Felt completely unnecessary and overly frustrating.
⨯ 🚫 FL (Female Lead) had already made it clear that she wasn’t interested, yet he kept following her and interfering in her life.
⨯He’s not her brother, cousin, ex, friend, family, or enemy. In short, he has no role in her life or in the main story.
⨯His screen time felt like a total waste. I honestly wondered, what was the writer even thinking?
⨯ His presence doesn't even qualify as that of a typical "extra" he was just there, adding nothing.

⨯And what’s wrong with Han Yu Hang? Has he completely lost his sense of reality? He’s asking FL, “You know I’ve been pursuing you, right? You only come to me when you need something. What do I even mean to you?”

⨯Seriously? She has clearly told you there's nothing possible between you two. You're the one forcing yourself into her life, offering help she never asked for. You're the one pushing this so-called friendship or "convenient relationship" not her.

⨯She never initiated it, so what right or logic do you have to ask her such questions now?

⨯🤡✍️Bravo, writer. What a bafflingly tone-deaf character you’ve written.

💦 The "FL jumps into the water" scene:

🧻💧 Practically and logically, it made no sense.
🧻💧Women are generally not as physically strong , here to compare to trained male soldiers that even more impossible . If you put a weak link between two strong ones in a chain, the chain will still break.
🧻💧Soldiers were forming a human chain to stop the water. There was no need for FL to jump in the middle.
🧻💧Was she trying to prove she was stronger than the soldiers?
🧻💧 It didn’t feel empowering it felt reckless.
👉 It looked like the writer just wanted to force importance on the FL through an illogical and unrealistic act.
👉 As a viewer, I already knew she was the main lead there was no need to add a foolish scene to emphasize it.
💭 Honestly, that scene just made both the FL and the writer look silly.

⚠️ Irresponsible Writing at Its Peak:

🩺⚠️2ML should not be allowed near 2FL until a doctor has given full clearance.

🩺⚠️If someone had told me there was even a possibility of HIV, I would have locked myself in a room for the safety of others. No matter how educated you are, whether you're a soldier or a doctor, you cannot prevent every accident.

🩺⚠️It doesn’t take much for HIV to spread even a small cut or exposure to blood can be enough. In daily life, people get cuts in the kitchen all the time. And no one is fully alert every second of the day.

🩺⚠️What was the writer even thinking while writing something so careless and foolish? 🤡✍️

🕵️‍♀️ Failed Thrilling Track:

The story started with a suspenseful tone a mysterious informer emailing a reporter, and the reporter beginning an investigation. That part felt exciting and promising.

But…

🔍😞The informer was kidnapped too easily.
🔍😞Suddenly he wanted to cooperate with the police then why involve the reporter in the first place?
🔍😞 That whole storyline was dismissed with a simple, lazy excuse:
“Reporter FL should stay away; it’s dangerous.”
🔍😞⚠️ All the thrill, danger, and suspense just… vanished.

🧍‍♂️ Underwhelming Villain:

💣👎The so-called “villain” a businessman and his team didn’t seem like villains at all.
💣👎They lacked presence, threat, or impact.
💣👎They felt more like extras with random dialogue than actual antagonists.
💣👎Poorly written and ineffective in adding any thrill or tension.

📝 𝓞𝓿𝓮𝓻𝓪𝓵𝓵 𝓘𝓶𝓹𝓻𝓮𝓼𝓼𝓲𝓸𝓷

Despite its flaws, I still consider this a good drama. Maybe it's because I’m a little biased toward this theme but I genuinely enjoyed the military setting and emotional undertones.

Yes, it lost its direction midway, but the early episodes, the characters, and the military lifestyle won me over.

💭 If you enjoy military romance and don’t mind a few bumps along the way, this drama is still worth watching.

lacking in performance

I found the kissing and intimate scenes quite clumsy, as if it was the actors' first project involving such scenes, or as if they weren’t comfortable with each other. If both actors have no issues with intimacy, then the intimacy director definitely needs to take some coaching classes, because the output just wasn’t convincing. The couple has been heavily praised for their chemistry,
but honestly, I didn’t feel any chemistry at all. When the actors' discomfort starts showing on screen, any sense of chemistry goes completely out the window. Even leaving the intimate scenes aside, I still felt there was a lack in the actors' overall performance. It didn’t feel exciting or heart-fluttering , it felt more like two kids pretending to be husband and wife.

i'll give you as short as i can and if you looking for detailed review look for other :)

Part of the 3/4 (12 ep) episodes went on to describe the character of Cha Moon Shook as powerful and brilliant minded so that our main couple seemed did not emerge in the series, that they are co-star/supporting actor of the main lead Cha Moon Shook .

i really want to drop it but only for "lee joon gi " i finished it and of course for his fight/action scenes which hook me till the last

" i'm disappointed " Apart from this, I did not have anything else to say. :(

i never saw such rubbish ridiculous fake acting deliver by actors even scenes are not perfectly directed by directors whether it is romance or action what are rush about they so not cared about quality and quantity in drama how much effort a thing needed and not needed it should be measured to come out a perfect product ( for ex if dish have no salt it taste bland, if more it become waste so perfection is important in anything) their is no perfection only wasted producer fund

for me acting is kind of art which take people to another world (imagination ) where they can't analysis what they are seeing is not real and mesmerizes you that you can't blink for one sec you connect with them as genuine they perform

but here all actors perform like newbie don't know how to act or doing fake acting just reading script without feeling

i really don't suggest it if it could perfectly written has ended by may be 16-18 epi yes i have not completed it yet but i can say it cause they dragged the episodes with unnecessary things

this drama could have great scope but unfortunately team destroyed it

i really like thing about Korean drama they are precise well written and executed don't rush and drag like other countries

now come to the drama i'm wondering after watching it why its titled " WHAT's WRONG WITH SECRETARY KIM" it should be titled " WHAT's WRONG WITH VICE PRESIDENT LEE " cause after hearing miss kim - she is quiting job mr. lee is no longer as usual lol :)

i must say actors are well deserve to be their they enact things greatly that make me sense writer/screenplay whomever done that have beautiful creator mind and magician to written/convey it

we all know there is nothing new in any drama all have same things romance bromance enemy action melodrama but what make any drama different/special is how you are presenting it

the show tell story about three person who went through trauma and how they overcame things and endure/control their emotion its old saying " when people face hard time either that person broke or became more stronger"

i used to go deeply in emotion how people convey their feelings so i've used serious words here so don't judge this drama is serious the thing i above mentioned it conveyed in very beautiful/light way its only some part of drama the whole drama is about confused heart of mr. lee and his stupidity cute romance as a same time passionate


recommendation 10/10

A Frustrating Drag Until the End

The biggest problem with this drama is how repetitive the characters' obsessions become. The second male lead is constantly obsessed with blaming the male lead for everything, no matter what happens. The female lead's trust issues are dragged out far longer than necessary, and the emperor remains fixated on believing his own son is guilty. These three repetitive conflicts make up almost 70–80% of the story.

It becomes incredibly frustrating . The first 3–5 episodes were enjoyable, with some fun comedy and a promising start, but after that, the drama turns into an exhausting cycle of misunderstandings and dragged-out conflicts. It became so frustrating that I ended up watching the rest at a faster speed just to finish it.

I couldn't see any chemistry between the main couple, no matter how hard I tried. The male lead's love for the female lead was evident, but that alone wasn't enough to create convincing chemistry. A romantic relationship needs mutual emotional connection, and I just didn't feel it between them.

Throughout the entire drama, the female lead kept saying, "This is the script, this is the script," over and over again. It became so repetitive that it was incredibly annoying.

ep 37 If someone says, "We'll live together, we'll die together," the literal meaning is that they'll stand by you and fight alongside you, even if it costs their life. It doesn't mean they'll just stand there watching like the audience. If they aren't helping at all, those words become meaningless and completely illogical.

FL character is so frustrating
