Well, it ain't Hollywood Star Lanes
Kate Jan 2, 2022
I went through almost all of 2021 without really hatewatching a standard length drama. I tried with "Police University" but it was so bereft of any quality of any kind, I could only manage half the episodes. I did manage a few shorter form web dramas though.

And then "Now We Are Breaking Up" came along and it is a sublime hatewatch because I am constantly discovering new flaws and reevaluating who is to blame for the disaster that it has been from the very first scene.

Dig the article. Well done.

Review Jirisan
You've hit the bullseye with the second paragraph, very well said! The biggest problem of this drama is that all…
Thank you so much for the kind words!

Had the final episode been better, probably would have bumped it up to at least a 7. But that was really bad. 😳

Title Jirisan Spoiler
The evidence was in the cell phone in a file cabinet at the police station this whole time?!!!

This is such a dumb twist that it can only be considered drama malpractice. Someone should be drummed out of the industry forever for that idiocy.

The rest? I dunno. I liked Hyun Jo and was happy he didn’t die but that’s all we get? Yi Kang can walk now? Ok how? Not a great ending iyam

That worked really well for me. LOL.
I guess I don't especially mind that it's less screen time for CC. I'm not sure that I would have gone in the direction of all three of these characters though.

Tbh ceo's character is the best character in this drama. I'm soo done with cotton candy's endless drama.
No argument on the ceo, but Ji Han? Blah.
On Idol: The Coup Dec 8, 2021
Anyone else feel like this show became less about Cotton Candy and more about Jae Hyuk and Ji Han and Bbiyong these last couple episodes?

My only complaint about this show was how hard it was to find where I could watch it.

It is an astonishingly excellent show. It has a marvelous mixture of some of the best lighter, funnier scenes and a few of the most poignant, heartbreaking moments. I have been positively riveted.

Thanks for giving this gem a little spotlight!

Title Reflection of You Spoiler
For a 90 minute finale, felt like 88 minutes was wrapped around Hee Joo and what happens w her. I wasn’t looking for a happy ending for Hae Won or Li Sa or the other characters, but give us some sort of adequate exposition on what happens with them. Didn’t like that.

And mother-in-law gets exactly what she wanted. Boo 😡

I’m hoping it’s a dark horse/someone we didn’t see at the end of ep 15. Seon Woo? Or Hyun Sung’s sister?
I’m fine w a surprise for the killer. I’m not fine if the deceased is a surprise and it’s not Woo Jae.

On Work Later, Drink Now Dec 1, 2021
First, it's a surprisingly good show that has warmth and humor and doesn't rely on the characters being drunk to be funny.

What is shocking to me personally is I had seen three of the four main actors in other productions (Choi Si Won in "Revolutionary Love", Han Sun Hwa in "Backstreet Rookie" and Jung Eun Ji in "That Winter, the Wind Blows") and thought they were, uh, to be kind, not good. Here, they're obviously playing better characters, but also I simply misjudged them badly. Comedy is not easy and this team is really good. Delighted to find that my previous opinion was proven 100% wrong.

I should either not watch this show or not keep checking my pulse on my Apple Watch while I’m watching.

A pulse of 117 seems like it’s high for sitting on my couch watching a tv show 😬

Title Now, We Are Breaking Up Spoiler
Misuk's husband isn't cheating though? I'm at ep 5 so far and he's just incredibly neglectful of her.
It's not a happy marriage. I'll stop there.
On Now, We Are Breaking Up Nov 29, 2021
By my count, there are now four subplots:
1. Chi Sook & Do Hoon
2. the conflict between the two work teams
3. Mi-Suk's health & her husband's fidelity
4. Chi Hyun

All of them are more entertaining (far more actually) than the primary arc, but at least each episode seems to feature these subplots more heavily. Had this been more of an ensemble show from the drop instead of relying so heavily on the JYK & pair, it would have been (at least through 6 episodes) far, far more enjoyable to watch.
