If the ML did a beastly Ji-Sung act from Kill Me, Heal Me, as in establishing his firm role, that would look better. Here he turns out to be sneaky, eavesdropping, slightly conniving and weak. Why wipe lipstick - just smash the lipstick altogether.
Wiping lipstick is at 1:00:00 mark, just for the curious ones. The only interesting scene. Rest of the episode is boring.
What if he'd have kissed to wipe lipstick? Ah, that would be much better. Instant fight. Clear establishment of dominance. Wiping with finger is meh! So weak.
Lol! You guys really banned me from this website are you guys for real is it so bad if a person have to say their…
Suho is boring and Lim Ju-kyung is a dumb donut. A better pair would be Lim Ju-young (younger brother) and Seojun's sister(Han Go-woon). There is nobody to match the persona of Seojun. He needs an entire new drama to do him justice. And poor cute Soo Jin. The only girl with some brain - at least she's using it to add some spice to the drama.
If you liked this, try "New Strange Stories from Liao Zhai (2005)". It is available on YouTube as "Strange Tales of Liao Zhai" as a 36 episode series, with 6 episode per story. Really good stories. You can watch one story at a time since they are independent. Classical Chinese dramas were much more well paced than modern sappy romances.
So this drama basically consist of jealousy, dragged love triangle, imamture leads, cliches , and "good looking…
Story line. Did it have any? Oh, that falling in love at suicide spot thing. Meh! They couldn't even write a decent plot. I think this is mainly an advertisement for Korean cosmetic industry. They throw in a joke or two when they are not showcasing sponsors in the show.
It will be so delightful if Soo Jin breaks up the boring and sappy couple. Finally the writers have written something for Soo Jin. A jealous Park Yoo Na is much better than both leads. Sometimes, cliché is the atavism we need to save a sappy tale from ruin.
I wish Park Yoo Na all the best in her mission "jealous girlfriend".
"The secondary FL and ML should be kicked in balls/crotch every single time they're on screen but no. " Honestly, that is much better idea than anything the writers of this show came up with. "The ML could be strong, take care of the woman, appear when he has to appear and just be a normal guy but no." Feminism is in turbo mode in Korea. So male leads are now expected to apply a ton of lip gloss and stand like cucks. "some romantic teenager idiots" - all girls then, I guess. Oh, what will happen to this human race! Keep writing honest reviews!
Male reviewers are the best, specially since they are a rarity on this website. Ah! Its a joy to read shit being called shit. "She just left him, chose the help of a SML without any real reason to do so." Women behave like that, for no reason at all. No wonder the shit show that is modern marriage. "a man who should again - kick her in the butt afterwards" - always a joy to read honest opinion on kicking a rightfully deserving ass.
The plot is good, for the romance of a villain and a witch, as if the writers were Satan's sidekicks sitting in the basement giggling at writing the next torture in name of psychology. All four main characters were lunatic. Painfully unbearable. They could have avoided that romance of young man with old lady plot. Or psycho and his patient plot. Frankly, they could have avoided the entire show and given Satan some rest.
Han Ye Seul could have been sympathized with if she didn't wear a mask for makeup. Uh! Just skip this drama already.
"Park Shin Hye was given a lemon and failed to make lemonade" Aye, she was the lemon!(as in, the metaphor) Agree, the show is as cold as its synopsis. It rode out the gauntlet only on Lee Min Ho's crazy fan base. Looking back, it is rather lackluster.
Another older "strong career woman" rejecting younger man. And secretly cursing "ex". Lunatic fantasies. No wonder birth rate of Korea has officially dropped below death rate. Never read the webtoon. Probably it was better.
Can be gladly skipped, since it will be hot trash(feminist writers don't ever disappoint).
These are lesser known and rather underrated, but have solid character based story, rather than cliches or cosmetic effects.
One thing I liked about them is the small town/countryside setting which is so unlike Seoul where even the underclass are shown to be carrying the latest Samsung Galaxy phablet.(too unbelievable)
Since I've stayed in small town and near forests and never in any large city, I somehow liked these two dramas very much.
AWWWWESOME!!!! you must have a blog, here is pure fangirling.

if you are interested in admiral Yi sun sin and his war, i'd like to recommend this youtube videos. Unlike this…
Thanks for sharing this link! Also, very grateful for your great effort. It is indeed very difficult to learn any of the Eastern languages. It is even more challenging to learn on one's own without any teacher. Thanks again for sharing this video freely.
Question: What's wrong with Ms Kim? Answer: She's a Korean feminist. That's what's wrong with her.
Although the plot summary mentions that the protagonist is narcissistic and selfish, I see little else in support of it than Yeong Joon(hero) having a mirror complex(vanity), together with suffering from some deep loneliness. In fact, in four episodes, he is yet to develop any depth of character, but for some weird hallucinations about his mother (perhaps) abandoning him.
I call the hero protagonist cause heroine Mi So(Kim Mi So) does little else than turn hero down with a wry cosmetic face.
The hero is hard working, intelligent, has become rich through persistent effort, is chaste for 9 years, and is so willing to stop Ms Kim from leaving that he decides to marry her. He also tolerates being called scum and narcissist by an under performing secretary upon her first assignment. Rather, he acquiesced to let her tie his office tie everyday. He is self-obsessed, but this looks more like a caricature of a man drawn by a narcissistic lonely woman than any real character written by someone with deep understanding of human nature.
In fact, the heroine is more narcissistic and impassionate than the hero. Taking a book, she reads - "I need a kind of man, seeing whom, even if my heart does not flutter, I would feel all my body relaxed at end of day when I am with him". Translation: I do not need a husband, I need a beta male to dump all my work related stress in evening, and make him cook food.
At his point I understood this drama script is written by some lonely feminist in her 30's who feels herself too good for any man. And yes, there she is. Jung Kyung Yoon, the writer, with hair cropped like men, and dyed. Definitely feminist.
An unnecessary romance with little depth of character, tortuously extended by a suspense sub plot. Frankly since major male actors have all gone into military training, there has not been a particularly good kdrama in part year (but for 2-3 good ones).
Musical score is all right. Not bad. But this drama is only for those people who wish to ogle at plastic surgery faces of Korean stars. Else, story is predictable. Heroine has little role. A good comedy actor Seo-joon wasted here. Move along. Nothing to see. Just regular fanfare.
