In my opinion SangEun is still hot mess. I'm not going to give any befinit of doubt for the things that not shown…
An orphan was essentially *bought* as company property to be fixed up & ~sold into marriage to another company, & as a result, grew up without any true "parental love" at all, yet you don't think that counts as a traumatic childhood? To think you're rescued from a lonely life only to have the person you see as a new mother figure treat you like just a stranger that needs to be trained & molded into a perfect doll so someone else can then claim ownership to you.. ;_;
loool only on MDL good ratings like ~76% approval get ppl up in arms, as if they are 20s/30s/40s, haha I could…
loool you're very welcome! on another drama I saw cmts about that one's average rating *as eps were airing* going from 88% to 84% aka 8.8 to 8.4 writing like it was intentionally caused by sabotage.. instead of merely being that as more ppl watch, more opinions will even out as the "middle" ebbs & flows.. & such an already high score is still impressive in itself!
I like to use the 5-star scale for simplicity: ☆ = hated, ☆☆ = just disliked, ☆☆☆ = liked, ☆☆☆☆ = really liked, ☆☆☆☆☆ = loved; each star is essentially 20% out of 100% so it's easier to remember everything over 60% (above 6.0 out of 10) is *positive* while btwn 40-60% is neutral / okayish & under 40% is the ~negative zone.. that is the overall gist of scoring-type ratings ♡
I think there was enough content to make both ships happy :). I honestly couldn’t choose between Da On and Shin…
seriously I couldn't choose either, lol I always mentally rewrite triangles for a trio-shippy twist to better handle whenever canon leaves one out, if I as the viewer have fallen for both / all three ♡♡♡
not the op but I feel similarly & I'm at at 8 eps in, lol.. I just want these cuties to be happy ~together & I always love potential poly-ace fluff so of course I've been won over into rooting for an impossible OT3 ♡♡♡
So I'm going thru bl's I've already watched, cause I wanna find some non spicy bl's to watch with my mom, and…
yeahh that moment was sooo criinge LOL like who wrote that?! *facedesk* but if one can get past the ~awkwardness of such an odd scene, might still be overall a rec-able watch for/with certain others.. xD
Just curious what other sites besides MDL would you recommend for checking out Korean drama ratings and reviews?
I also have spent time reading summaries & discussions occasionally on DramaBeans, it's a nice site that has the "blog"-feel where if you want to find ppl talking abt specific eps, you can just look up posts.. ♡
This is the first time I have seen a k-drama with GKP, and I admit I've been impressed with his acting range (example:…
yeah I'm not a fan either when actors good at ~swoonworthy roles change it up by playing villainous ones lol no matter how it can be excused away with the typical "that's how actors work" haha.. btw you shd start with Reply 1988 (even tho the main triangle is painful & the eps are many & nearly movie-length each, the family stories are good tho) cuz his role there is the start of this "quiet cuuteness" style he's so good at, then JIncarnate (even tho that's a major mess & also longish) because he gets to be both suave & *cuddly* there, LOL.. then follow up with CTypewriter cuz that one will break! your! heart! & hopefully his next drama, SDeliveryman will heal it somewhat, which was finally his first as the main lead, I think? hope you feel more impressed after.. ♡
Actually, the acting was spot-on. He played a character that shows signs of some random disorder that affects…
@gwmartins as a complicated aspie myself, I felt the nd vibes from the beginning, which of course may not sync with everyone as it is a spectrum, but there ~are those who'd feel similar.. "is smth wrong with me for not alrdy having friends? when everyone else seems to? maybe I shd try.." as opposed to an average nt's thoughts of *wanting* friends for all the reasons most ppl do since they first learn of "friends" as kids.. then "ah, so this is what having friends is like / how good it can be.." also came off like nd vibes since most others are often alrdy ~intuitively aware of all the ways that having friends can lift up one's life & such..
but that's just my pov as someone who identifies with all four of these chars depending on my mood lol be it awkward & detached but curious about companionship, caring & overachieving when it comes to others, quiet & sullen keeping my thoughts to myself, or a jokey outgoing dork that likes to make everyone laugh, etc.. (but I'm more the first one most!)
HELP I'M HALFWAY THRU & THIS OT3 IS JUST TOO CUUTE OMG *u*
started this only recently, 8 eps in now & I just want the trio of ShinWoo, TaeKyung, & DahOn to be happy together & comforting each other so no one gets left out or feels lonely anymore.. ♡♡♡ also NamGoong is hilarious & indeed is totally aware of the love potential btwn them, haha ^u^
find a plushie that reminds you of him & cuddle it well ♡u♡
no worries! I totally understood haha & "photo pillow" was on my mind cuz it looks like HJ has a few (wtf with the Joker one? eewww) & the girl crushing on the boy in Big which I recently started, brought him one of her face ahaha ;P
also unfortunately super low on funds but always got plans to do such awesome things so yeah, someday! ♡

LOL well it's less so than getting a "photo pillow" xD
also sometimes chars from certain fandoms do get either fanmade or official animal-based plushies or chibi versions, so Idk the concept of having a cuddly totem for a loved one isn't that unusual, hehe..
more logical suggestion maybe: a donation to a fitting charity that helps ppl or animals in some way ♡
Imagine if it was 1 male that marries 2 women (same story but the main charters are 1 main and 2 women), what…
..2 women? or 2 other guys? or 2 ppl in general? lol ♡♡♡
(ah, you edited it, hehe, cool - & my reply below still applies)
personally, it'd depend more on the story content itself & how the characters' personalities were as well as the implied "endgoal" (story turnout).. but I'm a fan of seeing dorks in love whatever the count or combo so I'd likely really enjoy it as long as the story was full of cuute scenes & very light on the angsty stuff xD
