I used to have this pending on Viki ,somewhere on "the thing I clicked and got distracted" list. Am here because am sleep watching the lead Bae In Hyuk being a quiet but smooth bartender in XX,a unique story and he is interesting enough for me to soft stalk him for his other works. I guess I will continue to look at him behind the counter at XX bar..
I wrote a very detailed review on the page..Check it out..10/10
Thank you for your feedback! Honestly, I didn’t even realize anyone was passing by that part of the review.
As for Xu Si Yu, the FL’s best friend, I intentionally left her out. To me, she had no real positive or negative impact—she was just there. I did briefly mention her as someone to keep an eye on, but really, we've seen her type in countless dramas: the “friend” who only stays that way until a man gets involved. There’s nothing new about her. She brings chaos disguised as friendship, and frankly, she’s the kind of person you hope never shows up in your real life.
That’s why I didn’t want to waste time discussing her in detail—it would’ve been a major spoiler anyway. While Chen Zhe might be somewhat forgivable, Xu Si Yu is firmly in the Blocked category 😂.
This drama drained me—in the best way. I had so much to say, but in the end, I chose to focus on the characters who truly stirred my emotions.
If out of 56 episodes,you watched 4 and gave up,then I have nothing to say.. I watched this a year after it aired so not in it's "hyped moments" I agree the first episodes is the foundation and were saved by Zhao Lusi's comic lines,there was so much going on but you might have missed a whole drama.So I don't know what I can share with you.. It's a long drama so it can be sectioned by events. I think the two leads did an amazing job,there were good side characters and bad ones..some came and disappeared..Zhao Lusi,Leo Wei,Li YunRui in one project can't be a total waste for sure..These are people who don't sign up for just any script. I love Li YunRui,this was actually my first drama of his..it made me wait for Blossom and it was beautiful.If you watched LLTG because of him,then I understand why you didn't enjoy it cos he was not the ML..he wasn't even the 2ML..he was the 3ML..so what you had is second lead syndrome. Maybe am old and I have been on this dramaland for too long(2018) but I know that not all of us will like the same thing..So I get your point.
Beautiful articulated.You described the ML to the dot. I have only rewatched three dramas in my dramaland existence namely "Love Designer" "Fake it till you make it" and "That Winter the Wind Blow" I might add LLGT to the list(just the parts where General Ling Buyi is doing his thing)
In case anyone asked,Every year I watch Love Designer,2020 my first Cdrama, just to watch Johnny Huang's talent, sense of humour,unmatched come backs,his savagery and his nuclear reaction chemistry with Dilraba Dilmurat.I don't think anyone comes to him in the whole cdramaland..His flow and realness are just legendary
LOL.. Thank you for scrolling and searching for my review. I didn't watch this while airing, so my reviews are…
Hahaha..I know my people and I will probably not watch a show before I read their reviews.. Naaah in 2025 we are too old,too experienced and too busy to sit through 12 episodes of highschoolers doing highschool things..unless it's stuff like Weak hero class 1/2 (no I didn't and won't watch but the point is) Am sure WIFTY is light but am glad my decision not to watch it is justified by your 8.5 😂
The way I scrolled looking for my people who review dramas not based on popularity 😂😂 I panicked when I didn't see you guys..then I soldiered on and here you are.. I was was wondering when will I see something that is not 10.0 or 9.0 rating..
And coincidentally all of my most reliable reviewers @virgievirgie @shiro and You rated it 8.5 It keeps popping on my recommended page,I guess there is nothing to see here..never been a fan of coming of age plot unless its heavy like "Light and Princess"
