At the halfway point, I like the fact that 100 Days is a slow burn, romcom. For me, the balance is right re humour, romance and seriousness, and our lead pair are fabulous.

Bravo Seo Hyun Jin!

I’m in two minds about BP. There is nothing wrong with the performances: good characters and JH is a natural in the part. It was a hoot to start with, some honesty was explored and then some of the “blame the other person” elements kicked in. It has potential.

A read a synopsis elsewhere that is perhaps a bit more accurate re Soo Yeon and what his back story is and also some of the other characters..

All in all, I thought Where Stars Land had a great start. It delivered on elements that quite a few other dramas of late have failed to do. It has good pace and interactions, heroic elements, mystery, stars in their eyes moments and today “my life isn’t going according to plan” moments. I think the OTP has a lot of potential re I want to live my life quietly which is going to be upended non stop by you know who!

Quietly enjoying AOL at the 25% mark after getting through the first couple of episodes. So, I’m glad I have persisted with this one.

A fabulous article. It was a real pleasure to read such a well written and executed piece. In short, I quite enjoyed TPWY. Personally, I liked Tiffany’s performance overall and I was very impressed with Xiaotong’s role - a stand out. Yes, Vanness Wu was very good and oozed menace when he needed to. As for Lou Jin, I thought he did well, but perhaps I enjoyed his performance more in My Story for You.

He was a great character. One of the best ever in Kdrama land

Not a dry eye in the house...

He’s a stand out, that’s for sure! He seems to fit his roles very well.

Yes, it has that vibe. But, this is so much more enjoyable

I took this scene to mean it happens on one of the son’s visits with the double benefit of ending the series with the perfect “post card” picture. It’s a great shot

Overall, I found this quite a good, mild, mystery thriller. That being said, the last episodes were unnecessarily convoluted and a little disturbing. I expected it to be much more clever, however, the final moments consisting of a very cute/sweet ending made up for it!

Happy

I didn’t think much about eps 1 & 2, but I must say eps 3 & 4 were great!

This is one of those rare shows that gets you in from the start and is just fabulous. Great casting. Great interactions. Great storyline.

I watched this show in one sitting. It didn’t quite go how I thought it would, but that’s okay. The story is about true love, but there is a lot of manipulation, obsession, some dark elements and destructive behaviour all contrasted against our hero who sees the best in people.

I felt the other way around - great start that led to an ending that wasn’t quite there for me. Overall, good performances and well worth a look

That’s what I like about this drama. It doesn’t pretend to be anything more than what it is. You can just enjoy it!

I thought the first half was excellent: a really good sci-fi thriller portraying a dystopian future. The concept of each episode in two parts re current day and twenty years in the future is a great concept and worked well. However, I found the second half descended into the ordinary and lost its originality. Still, you need to take a look and see what you think.

Funny, warm, sad, beautiful, wonderful characters and interactions, great one liners and worth every moment of your time!
