Huge surprise frankly, I wasn't expecting to like this kdrama but I was pleasantly surprised. Of course it's not something you'd expect to see a lot of, but it's still cool and you have a good time. Ryeoun impressed me again, you have to say he's wonderful as an actor, I loved him in "Twinkling Watermelon" and I love him here, I can't wait to see him again in WHC2. That's not all, Chris's character is clearly my favorite here, I loved this story that I found so touching and the actor is cool. Good kdrama with beautiful OST. I rate it 8/10 here.
Honestly, what I don't like about this kind of long kdrama that lasts 4-5 months is that afterwards you feel like crap and feel like you've done nothing for 4 months.
Last episode of this long journey. I've been here since the 1st day ( September 28) it's the first time I've watched a kdrama this long and honestly I'd started for the casting. Then I discovered a magnificent and very good actor by the name of “Kim Jung Hyun” who blew me away from start to finish, he's clearly my favorite here. The kdrama had many highs and lows, describing the story of a poor family who did everything to save the sight of the youngest daughter (Lee Darim). What you can blame this kdrama for is that there were a lot of unnecessary scenes and that for many are me, finds that 16 episodes would have been enough for this story.
Rather, I had announced that for me the ending would be a 5-10 year time jump where we'd see the grandparents and Bong Hee in prison. I was half wrong in the sense that I find that just limits the 1 years in prison.
Then I'd also announced that the grandparents would die in prison, and here too I was wrong, but I was right in the fact that DaRim and Gangju would end up together and that TaeWoong and Cha Rim would get married. Basically a happy ending.
This long journey is now over, thank you Iron Family and especially thank you “Kim Jung Hyun” I'm going to miss you so much.
I just finished the 35th episode and what can I say... I'm going to miss it so much. The grandparents and Bong Hee all got 1 year in jail and Gangju's mom got her money back. Then that ending, it literally broke my heart in two. Gangju didn't have an ounce of happiness from the beginning to the end, I felt so bad for him, I hope he gets his happiness in this last episode.
Anyway, I'm starting this last episode of this long kdrama!!!!
I fucking hate it, it's impossible to find it on streaming like 90% of the new films released in Korea. You always have to wait 2-3 months. I'm not going to get on a plane just for a movie.
I usually skip the kdrama intro except when we have this kind of intro a bit “Queen Of Tears” “Our Beloved Summer” I love this kind of intro and Paul Blanco's OST “Test me” is just amazing, I listen to it over and over.
I really, really messed up. I even thought that the OST we heard when the ML saves the FL in space wasn't sung by Seungkwan but by Jin. Why is that? It's simple, I listened to Jin's ost and I swear they have the same melody and in both OSTs you hear “My Universe”.
depends when the filmed it. a lot of kdramas seem to be preproducted these days.
The kdrama was finished in mid-August and Dear X started shooting in September, in roughly a month. I think his scenes were already finished well before the end of shooting.
They were all good from start to finish. For me, it's just Yeonwoo who's really not that great, after all I've never found her a good actress. She gets by, but honestly she's not irreplaceable. Anyone who knows anything about acting, who's got the basics, can play her roles without criticizing her - I love her.
I actually like 16-episode kdramas more because they're so long and last about a month and a half and you feel like you've done nothing with your life for 1 month. That's my impression, honestly.
I honestly don't understand the criticism. Yes, it's not the greatest kdrama. Yes, obviously it's not realistic, but I don't know, I'm happy when I watch it. Magnificent scenes, incredible visuals and a soundtrack that's just magnificent!!! I just don't want to have the next kdrama on Earth honestly.
Without spoiling myself, but with this sick trio, especially as I've just finished “The Tale Of Lady Ok” where I found Choo Young Woo 10/10 so good, how come this kdrama is so badly rated ??
