I don't know if it's just me, but I was not impressed with this drama. After all the hype and everyone praising it, I went in with high expectations. The beginning was promising, but the more I watched, the more my interest faded. In my opinion, this drama is seriously overrated.

To be honest, I never felt any attachment to the characters. I simply didn't care what happened to them. The storyline had potential, but the execution fell flat for me. Also, I couldn't vibe with Jong Hyeop at all – something about his performance just didn't click.

I made it to episode 7, then gave up and skipped straight to the finale. And honestly? I didn't miss much. The last episode basically summarized the entire story.

yes, I've seen it and I absolutely love it. Its even more amazing as its based on true events.

I would not compare this drama to POJ; although they share the same director, they are two completely different stories. While Blossom is more grounded and focused on internal family and court power plays, the chemistry between the leads remains amazing and the storyline is just perfect. I was hooked from beginning to end. Perhaps the only true similarity is that the leads are so in love; they constantly support and protect their other half.

This drama simply captivated me with its story and wouldn't let go. The connection and love of the leads made the drama, as they put their other half first. I just love it! Even though the production wasn't as spectacular as POJ, they still did a great job as you described.

The chemistry between the leads is palpable from the start, and their romance is truly amazing! They are head over heels for each other, always supportive and caring.

I was surprised at how quickly 34 episodes flew by! I loved the ending; their daughter is adorable, and I loved how exhausted both of them were. 💖

I know everyone's been raving about this drama, calling it a masterpiece, but honestly, for me, it was just below average. Glad to know I'm not the only one who feels this way! 😅

The concept of Extracurricular is really interesting. But I'm seriously struggling to keep watching.

The female lead is so annoying that I can barely stand her. I could overlook that if the male lead made up for it—but he doesn't. He's supposed to be the top student at school, smart and calculating. Yet he acts like a complete loser and can't solve the simplest problems that come up.

This drama makes me angry, but not in the satisfying way. It's just frustrating to watch. I don't think I can continue. I'm dropping it.

I watched Blossom right after The Pursuit of Jade (which I absolutely loved). I was completely drawn into this drama from the start. The storyline hooked me so badly that I couldn't wait for the next episode.

Yes, the production quality isn't as high as some other big-budget dramas. But honestly? It doesn't matter. The story will captivate you completely. I could not stop watching.

Blossom is proof that episode count doesn't matter when the writing is this strong. I loved Song Mo and Dou Zhao as a couple—they always look after each other, and their love story feels genuine. I especially love how Dou Zhao is so strategic and always tries to help Song Mo with his revenge. It was so painful to watch how the odds are always against them and how the villains always strike first. But that just makes it more satisfying to watch every single one of them meet their ends.

The political intrigue is well written, and you will never get bored. It was also satisfying to see how certain characters developed compared to their past selves. My only complaint? I wish the drama was longer. Some storylines deserved more time to breathe.

But despite that, Blossom has one of the best storylines I've seen.

i don't know why but i could not get into the story and be fully invested in the story. i could not pass episode 3.Maybe i will give it another try later on.

What a pleasant surprise this drama turned out to be. I was hooked from the very first episode, largely thanks to the wonderful dynamic between the in-laws. The storyline is compelling, and I loved how each episode peeled back another layer of the family's secrets.

The first half of the series was excellent, but unfortunately, the momentum stalled in the final four episodes. I found myself getting bored and even skipping through certain scenes—which is a shame, because this had the potential to be a truly great drama.

One standout aspect worth mentioning is the relationship between the wife and her mother-in-law. I believe this is the first drama I've watched where they form an alliance rather than a rivalry, and I absolutely loved their friendship. If the series had been trimmed to fewer episodes, it might have maintained its grip and kept the story more engaging throughout.

Overall, this is a strong drama that ultimately loses its spark toward the end.

The first half was everything I didn't know I needed. Watching Xie and Fan slowly fall in love felt natural—tender, unhurried, and deeply satisfying. I loved that she was strong enough to stand on her own, and I loved even more that he was always there, quietly watching, but never stepping in unless she truly needed him. There was something beautiful about that.

The humor caught me by surprise. I laughed out loud more than once. The falcon became an unexpected favorite, and their little found family warmed my heart. I loved their pig butcher squad—it really showed how they became a family and always took care of each other. Gongsun was a delight—always teasing him about being a married man. And Qian? Her story stayed with me. Qi Min played her possessive partner so well. It was messy and painful, but I loved that the drama didn't sugarcoat it. Sometimes love is toxic, and this one showed that honestly. And the children? They brought such lightness. Every scene with them felt like a small gift.

I was hooked from episode one. Twenty episodes flew by like nothing. The costumes were stunning, the fight scenes were insane, and I literally finished the whole thing in two weeks because I couldn't stop watching.

It took me a few episodes to recognize who was who, as the characters all looked quite similar at first. But I got there eventually, and finally understood the court intrigues.

If I have one regret, it's that the drama was too short. I never thought I'd say that, but an extra10 episodes would have given the story room to breathe. The second half felt rushed at times, as if certain moments were brushed past too quickly. I'm grateful they took their time in the beginning—that slow pace was where the heart of the drama lived.

The ending caught me off guard. I didn't expect to feel for the villains, but I did. When you think about it, just a few minutes of your live could changed everything. And when the truth came out about what happened 16 years ago? I was crying. The glimpse of what could have been broke my heart.

I'm going to miss Xie and Fan. Their chemistry was undeniable, their pairing unforgettable. This one left a mark.
9.5/10

To be honest, I had a hard time getting through the first few episodes. I just couldn't get into it at first, but after a while, it did get better.

The acting was great. Rowoon is a fantastic actor—I loved his last drama The Murky Stream, where he absolutely slayed the role. Yi Hyun was also good; I enjoyed her in Head Over Heels. The storyline was interesting, and I liked the concept of matchmaking. But despite all that, something still felt missing.

The drama felt so long. I kept checking how much time was left in each episode, and I wasn't really excited to watch the next one. I'm in the middle of it, but I don't know if I can carry on—it feels like it's taking forever. In the end, I just skipped to the last episode.

I recently watched My Dearest Thief, and I absolutely loved it—a solid 10 out of 10. That drama reminded me why I fell in love with K-dramas in the first place. So when I saw that Moon River had a similar storyline, I was genuinely excited.

The first episode was promising. But it quickly turned into something average. I didn't like the humour in this drama—it felt out of place. The characters started acting quite childish, and it didn't match the tone the drama was going for. I usually love historical dramas, but this one just isn't for me.

Now I'm at episode 3, and I'm struggling to focus. I keep finding myself reaching for my phone or doing other things instead of watching. The cinematography is beautiful, I'll admit, and the OST is absolutely amazing—that's the only positive thing I can say.

But overall, I just don't like this drama. I think I'll be dropping it.

Add another one to the disappointment pile.

I know this drama has sky-high ratings and a sea of glowing reviews. But for me? It's painfully overrated.

The start was promising—I was genuinely invested. The concept hooked me. But the deeper I went, the more frustrated I became. The main leads kept making choices that felt impossibly stupid, and the execution never lived up to the premise. My interest fizzled out, and by the second half, I was just... bored.

I started skipping episodes. Eventually, I jumped straight to the ending. And honestly? I didn't miss a thing.

I just never connected with this drama. Another overhyped one that didn't deliver.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. Thank you for the recommendation, I'll add it to my watchlist! 😊

The premise had so much potential—which makes the end result even more disappointing.

Unfortunately, the execution falls flat. I have to say, I think this drama is overrated. It was highly predictable from early on, and something crucial just felt missing throughout. There was no excitement pushing me to the next episode, no real thrill while watching. It simply felt... boring.

For a drama with such high ratings, I expected so much more. I forced myself to episode 5, but with 20 episodes total, I'd rather invest my time elsewhere.

It's a shame. I was genuinely looking forward to this one.

Honestly? This one was too cliché for me.

I tried to get into it—I really did. But it was just too much. Even though I enjoy watching no-brainer dramas from time to time, this one felt like a waste of my time. I dropped it at episode 3.

I usually like Seo In Guk, and the other famous "boyfriend" leads were fine, but even they couldn't convince me to keep watching. The story didn't grab me, the tropes felt overdone, and I just wasn't invested.

Not for me.

I actually enjoyed Part 2 much more than Part 1.

I absolutely loved Li Jen and Chiang dating era—it was so sweet to finally see them spend quality time together, just being happy. After everything they went through, those moments felt earned.

The murders were portrayed in a very detailed way, and honestly? I get it. It made watching them get their revenge that much more satisfying. The plot twist was great and executed really well—it caught me off guard in the best way.

Tseng Ching Hua's acting is just phenomenal. I truly think he carried the entire drama. That smile of his, with pain still lingering in his eyes? Iconic. He conveyed so much with just a look.

That said, I didn't really connect with Chia Yen's portrayal. Visually, she looked too old for the role, and to be honest, her acting wasn't the strongest. It stood out, especially next to Tseng.

It was so satisfying to see everyone finally get what they deserved. But it was also bittersweet—because we know what will follow. The happiness doesn't erase the past.

For me, the real villain was always his mother. It all started with her. If she had made different choices, his entire future could have been different. That's the tragedy at the heart of this story.

At least, in the end, they got their happy ending. They're finally together.

Overall, it was a good watch. And it will stay memorable—mostly because of Tseng Ching Hua.

I get it, they were real friends, but for me, it wasn't a real friendship, and she backstabbed her every chance she got and intentionally ruined her life. Also, Eun Jung always forgave her and let her back into her life. To be honest, if she wasn't dying, she wouldn't have contacted her at all and apologized for stealing her work. So for me, that's not what friendship means...
