I really like So Ji Sub in this. Sadly, he's the only thing I like in this. I'm not sure how long I can stick around watching a drama that's so hateful towards their main character. The fat jokes are tasteless and tacky.
I wish this drama ended at episode 11. I would have preferred an epilogue (SJ saving Most, them revealing who the rich nephew is, etc) over these last 5 episodes. I didn't feel the emotional depth in the latter half of this drama. It all felt very fake and cheesy. I'm relieved that it's over.
Honestly, I'm ready for this drama to end. It has been boring the past few weeks. :/ It feels like this drama is trying way too hard to be touching. HJ and SJ scenes, the most scenes, everything feels....off.
It breaks my heart that Hye Jin doesn't care much about Shin Hyeok. Let's face it, he has confessed to her and…
Eh she doesn't owe him anything. What kind of person would Hye Jin be if she accepted Shin Hyeok's feelings when she loves Seong Jun? That's not fair to the three of them. She shouldn't accept Shin Hyeok's feelings out of pity. I don't see how she could have handled the situation any other way.
I'm okay with the noble idiocy in this drama. It's in character. Hye Jin is a great person and friend. Of course she would be concerned about how her relationship with Seong Jun would affect Ha Ri.
I really like Ha Ri. She's a complex and interesting character. At heart I think she's a good person. She was lacking affection in her life so she fell in love with Seong Jun because he was kind to her. She kept delaying telling him who she really was because she didn't want to lose that kindness. It's obvious the character is lonely. She isn't close with many people. Probably because of her neglectful childhood it makes her scared to open herself up to others. Hye Jin has a big heart and I think she'll be able to forgive her.
I didn't like it. I like my male characters to have some sort of personality. Shone didn't really have one. I didn't get Nam's obsession with him in the movie.
The romance wasn't believable. I enjoyed the movie until they kissed. After that it became the typical shojuo movie where the shy heroine with low self esteem doesn't think she's good enough for the hero. So tired of watching these cliche stories where the hero is put on a pedestal.
Awww. This was really sweet. :) Watching this reminded me what made the manga so special- the deeply caring heroine and her selfless love for the hero. If you liked this movie I would suggest reading the manga- It's even better!
I'm 4 episodes in. I agree with your review on the poor acting and the slowness.of the plot. It seems like they're trying to mask it with cuteness and it's not working. It comes across as childish. Not sure if I'll stick with this one. After all the hype for this version I'm really disappointed. lol
I didn't really care for the original Full House and honestly so far this isn't much better. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The actors are really green and it shows. Because they have to resort to cute acting the show comes off as childish. I hope it improves because so far I'm bored with it.
B+ drama. Great writing, directing and acting. Dong Joo and Woo Ri made a great couple. Woo Ri was a compassionate and understanding heroine with a beautiful heart. Perfect for insecure Dong Joo. I was a bit worried how the writer would handle Dong Joo's hearing impairment given how Korea deals with disabilities (i.e. ignores them). I was pleasantly surprised with how it was handled. Very touching and heart warming drama.
“If you want to know what a man's like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.” I think this quote fits Seung Joon perfectly. He's two-faced. The way he has treated her in contrast to the fake Hye Jin is like night and day. And it's all because of "who" Hye Jin is to him. I'm sure when he learns who Hye Jin really is he'll try to make nice with her. I hope she doesn't fall for it and calls him out on his fake nice personality.
