The FL breaks the fourth wall a lot too which is common in jdramas but not so much in kdramas. I'm glad that Korea is embracing more unconventional style of drama making. Its why I love Jdramas so much. You never know what you're getting and its a pleasant surprise.

I didn't even realise the ep was over bc of how hilarious the scenes in the hospital was. I wouldn't even mind not having a major romance if they keep up the comedy.

They're doing a parody of the common trope of the ML who is worshipped by everyone imo.

You're right. I still dislike them both though.

You might have just been watching the shoujo manga adaptations. Most people just watch the popular teen romances and assume its all there is to jdramas (which is really unfair tbh.) I dont go around assuming all kdramas are like The Heirs or Boys Over Flowers.

I have a few that are really great. Long Vacation, Kimi Wa Petto (both versions are nice), Galileo, Chugakusei Nikki, Taisetsu na Koto wa Subete Kimi ga Oshiete Kureta, Mother, Buchou to Shachiku no Koi Modokashii, Oi Handsome, Proposal Daisakusen, Watashitachi wa Douka Shiteiru.

I'm still new to jdramas but like with any other genre, its a mixed bag. Don't be surprised to see the same things if you keep reaching for the same area.

It's a great drama. I'm trying to stop myself from continuing so I don't have to wait for new eps. It seems cliche but actually utilizes them in a new, humorous way. Reminds me a lot of I Picked Up A Celebrity on the Road with the dark humor and the main couple's dynamic.

She just found out she has cancer? What is she supposed to do lol.

Its really not. Its a good drama and has great dark humor.

Ep 1 is just set up. Ep 2 onwards is where it gets good.

Same. Its cliche but somehow plays on them in a dark way? It reminds of a jdrama tbh.

I cackled when the whole opening scene with the people waiting in line turned out to be for a math tutor. They even had signs and everything. He's even got his own haters who sends him dead rats. Who needs to be an idol when you can just become a math tutor?

I feel like they're lowkey making a parody of how MLs are worshipped like gods in their perspective universes despite being the CEO/heir of some random company who in real life would never get the same amount of attention they do in dramas.

lmao not Jae Kyeong on A Gentleman and Young Lady. You should check out The Promise if you wanna see more of Sara in in that drama.

I love how its still ongoing. Really want to jump back on watching it but maybe I'll wait till its over.

Ikr. I love him. I wanna see him as the ML though and a morally grey FL who just loves him anyway despite his faults.

I don't really care for the sad part. It is a true story that happened and a part of their history so why not? I just don't like how they all go the same way. Its always the ML who has to take revenge, add in some Korean actor who speaks Japanese, war, yada yada. I would like a story similar to Youth of May. Yes its set in a turbulent time period but the way it was written was really refreshing and lighthearted without being dismissive of real events.

Plus there are other time periods besides 1920s and the Joseon era in Korean history so why do they always make stories set in those periods? There is an American movie called Pachinko coming out with Korean, Japanese, American, and mixed actors. It has a unique story about a multigenerational family and their journey from the 1920s to the present.

I'm stealing this insult.

omg the summary XD

The summary is really trying to outdo American movie trailers.

Oh so its still ongoing? Sorry about that. I tend to come off as snappy sometimes. But I guess there's still a little romance even though its one-sided. Thank you for explaining.

okay but...all im asking is do they have a romantic relationship? I dont care if its older man or younger woman. Just one question: do they get together? Thats all.
