I've never seen the manga/webtoon of Cherry Magic but have watched the Japanese original version of it and I love it
I was sceptical at first with this 2023 version based on some of the comments here but I realised it was all for nothing. This Thai version/adaptation is also a recommended watch from me in my honest opinion. I can feel the love in the air once again
There's freshness in this and I highly recommend anyone to watch it. Please don't compare it to the Japanese version or Manga/Webtoon though
Anyone who has watched this drama can you tell me from when the ML was in love with Fl and why?
Since the beginning - it was later revealed that the ML had a Painting drawn by the FL
He was mesmerised by this Painting and eventually found out that the artist was FL (it was not explained well on how he knew about FL as FL was made to do fake replica of Paintings for the Evil Mother and Evil Mother didn't credit her anything in her life before she go back in time, so how would ML know about this unknown artist. Abit of plot hole)
When he came to know about FL, FL was already married to that trash guy, so ML has been looking out on her as a bystander, knowing who she is, and that she is kind and she is blinded by what her fake family did to her but she still treat them well like they are her family which ML was not very happy and got abit of upset.
They got into a car accident together and happened to go back in time at around the same day, which ML have that chance to be together with FL because she wasn't married in this new life
I liked how they portray that contrast of emotions from the marriage couple photo they took when they got married for the first time due to some sort of revenge contract, and the one at the end as a true Happy Family. Perfect Marriage - it was really a sweet watch, watching both ML and FL fall for each other and care for each other.
I think that the moment she found about the accident she felt angry only and wanted to leave immediately. It was…
She is angry because the ML knew everything but pretended he didn't know anything
Yes, FL didn't tell ML about the time, so in POVs, she also wasn't honest to ML
But who knew? She didn't even have to tell him anything but ML already knew because he also traveled back in time. So in the full picture, FL thought she is the only one given a chance possibly to change the future, but only to find out ML was in the same circumstance. ML kinda know everything about her only for FL to find out she didn't exactly know everything about him which she thought she knew
I cannot bring myself to hate Yura oml, after having seen her in High Kick, I just wanna squeeze her cheeks cause…
Her acting is really good. She displayed alot of emotions here as compared to FL and any other, including the emotion of Happiness, Sadness, Anger/Frustration, Anxiety, Anxiousness, Jealousy
ML actually also died. This is his second life back in time, same as the FL. ML is the one who wants to go through…
Yes, same. I saw the scene in Ep 1 and has my suspicion initially about the ML, but it wasn't confirmed until Ep 11 which seems to be true
It seems more like the ML alr knew who FL was, back in that died life and back to this life restarted. Something tells me he knew that FL come back to this life restarted but he didn't mention that he died too, for some purpose he also got a second chance in life with a seeming "deadline".
I have watched till Episode 10. Can't wait for new episode tomorrow.
Honestly, the Storyline is abit weak in this, but I still enjoyed every episodes, especially all of their acting. This may be because there are only 12 episodes, as compared to those 100 revenge dramas, which is good actually, cause I dislike longs one.
This is the first drama I have seen FL. She's really beautiful
Sung hoon as a 39/40 YO man acting in this made me swoon once again. I think that's amazing because I couldn't tell he's 40 YO in 2023
I first saw Jin Ji Hee in Penthouse, and I must say - She is glowing in this drama. She look really beautiful here, like a grown up lady from the child actress she was portraying in Penthouse. Just a pity she is still an antagonist (in a way) for both Penthouse and this drama, though I enjoyed her redemption in Penthouse.
Lee Min Young is abit young to act as a Mother here imo. She's like one of those "your mum look like your sister" kind of person. Afterall irl, she's only 7 years apart from ML
Episode 4 and FL already has secrets... I don't like it...you both agreed to go through this together, so why…
ML actually also died. This is his second life back in time, same as the FL. ML is the one who wants to go through together with FL. FL wasn't on her mind about their marriage actually, but gradually also fell hard for ML.
They do seem to have secrets in the beginning, but gradually FL acts with ML with everything. There's 1 secret that FL don't know about ML though, it will be revealed at Ep 11
Ultimately, Seon Wook's purpose here was to be Jiyong's shield and cover as the identity of Vigilante to let the current mass incident to have a rest for now. It was still quite obvious that there is still a villain or 2 whom they haven't dealt with yet. At first the mastermind behind seems like it was the Vole, but actually there is one man behind him. There definitely seems to be a Season 2. Can't wait. Anyways, Seon Wook is a friend anyone would have wanted, willing to sacrifice his life while taking that risk to help the ideal he can't do as a Policeman trainee identity, after finding out his close buddy is the Vigilante whom he has expressed support previously.
Choi Miryeo's acting improving as episode progresses. I think she did a good job acting as a Lunatic after, at least. I might not like the way she react, but as a Vigilante supporter, I stand by her.
Cho Heon's acting like a dad for Jiyong, caring about his wellbeing. I actually like this man. He went for being rough to getting soft with Jiyong. He knows what Vigilante doing is right, but just that the method is not appropriate according to the law as a Policeman, yet the corrupts' action made Cho Heon unable to rebuke Jiyong as Vigilante. Thinking back about it, He actually became a Vigilante himself everytime he says he will talk informally. It's interesting he is able to use violence and kill openly as a Police in identity, and with no Penalty while Vigilante do it with his black hoodie, with no one else except those who seen his face knowing who Vigilante really is. I like how the new Team Leader became one of the catalyst whom supported Jiyong's ideal as Cho Heon didn't stop him because what Jiyong said was right. It was predictable he would die after facing off the Vole, but still sad.
Kang Ok, this man supports anything Jiyong says with not much question ask. I like that he is one whom stand by him all the time and starts to follow Jiyong's ideas and suggestions, without acting on his own way anymore. There is an unknown CEO whom seems to be a villain we don't know yet. I am referencing this without seeing the Webtoon, just based on this drama.
The Professor seems to have his suspicions on the truth, but still choose to keep mum at the end of this Season. Regardless, while his role is not major here, as a Jiyong protector, I will also like to have his support for Vigilante.
Jiyong ends up losing his good friend of the Police University. He knows Seon Wook helped him when he almost got killed and obviously not very happy that the Vole got promoted despite being a villain. But at least he saw the man behind the crappy cover of news whom turn evil into someone honorable to cover his trails. Can't wait for Season 2, while Jiyong lost a friend in this journey as Vigilante, he gained 3-4 allies whom are willing to protect his identity even if their ideals ain't exactly the same.
Cho Heon didn't kill Ji Yong even when Ji Yong couldn't defeat him 1-1
That showdown was just Cho Heon wanting Ji Yong to drop his Vigilante identity and follow Cho Heon's lead as a Police. Both of them are Police in occupation with different ideals, but similar intentions via different methods of doing things
There is no reason why Ji Yong didn't want to save Cho Heon though, because Cho Heon knew who the Vigilante is but didn't reveal to anyone. In a way, Cho Heon has protected Ji Yong but with a different intention in mind as compared to Kang Ok whom wants to join Ji Yong as Vigilante
Kang Ok is handsome, resourceful, protective, reliable and a smart fighter. The only flaw he has is that he doesn't follow the same to your rules. But man, he will always have your back. Where to find a man that look at you like you're his oxygen?
Rewatched from ep 1 to ep 4And got something to ask
How Kang Ok knows Vigilante's real identify is Jiyong? Does KO knows JY previously?
I mean KO is operating behind a very large company DK, so it seems he gets to know alot of stuff, even know traces of what Miryeo is doing off camera, but how he know is JY?
There a lot of plots unexplained (like how JY knew all the criminals whereabout at the point of time etc.) but I am not going into those in detail, just curious on Kang Ok cause after all now he's in a position of "I know you, you don't me", "You know me, but idk who are you" to JY

If you happen to find that it is made available somewhere, do let me know thank you very much!
"I don't need to know the reasons why you left me on sight"?
Yes, FL didn't tell ML about the time, so in POVs, she also wasn't honest to ML
But who knew? She didn't even have to tell him anything but ML already knew because he also traveled back in time. So in the full picture, FL thought she is the only one given a chance possibly to change the future, but only to find out ML was in the same circumstance.

Though I don't understand why you are here to comment this when Vigilante is not a romance drama
Kang Ok is handsome, resourceful, protective, reliable and a smart fighter. The only flaw he has is that he doesn't follow the same to your rules. But man, he will always have your back. Where to find a man that look at you like you're his oxygen?
Ji Yong, will you be his boyfriend?

There a lot of plots unexplained (like how JY knew all the criminals whereabout at the point of time etc.) but I am not going into those in detail, just curious on Kang Ok cause after all now he's in a position of "I know you, you don't me", "You know me, but idk who are you" to JY
