Spoilers for ep 8 https://youtube.com/watch?v=AombnmYX69g&si=yDULpq1aR5hfadhQ
Anyone knows what Jang Hyun said at the end that made Gil Chae taken aback ? I scrolled down the comments to see if someone wrote what they said, but none.
I didn’t mind that the kiss was a typical dead fish kiss like we used to see so often in the past in kdramas. It was their first kiss with each other and Gil Chae’s first kiss ever, I’m sure in later episodes the kisses will be passionate :) i knew their first kiss would be a dead fish kiss, its realistic i think. Before ep 7 i had no opinion of Yeon Jun, i neither liked or disliked him.., until this ep, now I really dislike him. I don’t really know what Gil Chae sees in him. I guess she will realize she is in love with Jang Hyun in ep 10 and then finally let go of her feelings for Yeon Jun - completely.
Its frustrating Gil Chae still is in love with Yeon Jun, while refusing to admit her feelings for Jang Hyun. But i get it, she must have been in love with Yeon Jun for at least a few years, when you feel strongly for someone (not just a crush ) the love for person wont dissapear in a short time … we have to remember that since the start to now it hasnt been many months. Someone you love , the love wont go away in justa few monhs. Jang Hyun plz have a little patience, dont be like Rhett ”Frankly my dear i dont give a Damn “ xD but yeah it’s annoying Gil Chae still obsesses over a guy who has never done anything for her when she should be obsessing over Jane Hyun instead who risked a LOT for her. But yeah , first love is hard to forget
Wow, how didn’t I know about this drama until today?? I was on youtube and accidently saw that ’Marcus here!’ had posted a new video where headline said ”Sunshine By My Side passes review”
I was like oh well maybe lets go and see what its about on MDL . So when I came to this Sunshine By My Side page and read the plot and tag I was immediately hooked. I love more experienced/mature/older FLs, noona romances is something I love :) and cool that its about a divorced woman (I’m supposing its her who is divorced?) doesn’t sound like your typical cliche modern romance chinese drama, at least to me. I hope this drama will be mature and have at least decent skinship (hopefully a lot of them!) i’m definitely watching this… :)
The Princess man’ Its old tho (2011) but it has aged well. Joseon version of Romeo and Juliet , very intense…
He became sooo hot when he became an outcast , with his sexy long hair showing now freely (not hidden by those hats anymore) and him in dark none-noble clothes *swoon*
Queen in Hyun's man, it has one of the best (and real life at that time) couples, great performances and interesting…
I totally agree about this , up to this date they are one of my alltime favorite drama couples.
They treat each other with respect already from day 1, and it’s just so cute and wholesome how they fall in love. Their relationship is built on love , trust, respect , loyalty… they banter , flirt , have a lots of swoon worthy skinship (they definitely don’t shy away from it, doesn’t feel the slightest childish )! For a drama from 2012… this is up to date still one of the healthiest and most mature couples in kdramaland .. especially since 2012 when a looot of dramas still had toxic couples, but QIHM was anything but toxic (in fact it’s FL’s ex bf who is the toxic one) ML , from a time with no women rights, was way more respectful / none pushy than many modern day MLs in dramaland. Chemistry is amazing but no wonder since the actors dated each other IRL too for a a while :) Ahh, wonderful drama in whole tho not as ”high quality” as Goblin, perhaps :)
Does anyone have recommendations for similar dramas based on the romantic development and the depth of the story?
The Princess man’
Its old tho (2011) but it has aged well. Joseon version of Romeo and Juliet , very intense drama. For me its my fav historical romance drama , but there is a big chance My Dearest will take TPM’s place for me… i watched TPM first time same year it aired , and until now its still unbeatable for me , but as I Said …that might change (after 13 years …)
No but many other guys has a crush on her because of her beauty. The SML tho I think felt for a minute attracted to her , as they were about to kiss but he stopped in last second . He’s not in love with her, the one he loves is the SFL (and SFL loves him too)
Gosh by now I’m so in love with Jang Hyun, such a complex but wise/realistic character, he is not some idealist, which I love. Namkoong min this is my first drama of him , and definitely not my last! This guy might not be some classic pretty oppa looking boy, but he is sexy here and so manly !! And i feel for his character here so much more than for many other MLs in other historical dramas even if they have those super pretty youthful faces. I think i prefer MLs like Jang Hyun, with mature faces that show they been through a lot and know how life works realistically, they don’t try to sugarcoat anything
What worries me is that since this is split into 2 parts, part 2 might not Do as well in viewership/ratings …if it will take about 1 month until part 2 airs (which is pretty long time) some people might have lost interest in this drama and moved on to other dramas instead , or simply forgot about this drama. . I’m not sure dividing this into 2 parts is so smart?? But at the end of the day , the makers of this drama know What they are doing I guess, and they have concluded that doing part 2 with 1 month waiting is the best option
I just love How this drama is not obsessed about having the actors look pretty no matter what even during wars, the make up artists did great making the actors look dirty/ messy during the tough times, so realistic! No way people looked like pretty dolls with perfect shiny skin, fresh clean beautiful hair and being full of make up during wars.
Edit; oh i received the big talker badge xD i really have talked a lot about this drama here lol , I received it immediately after posting this comment here
I'm gonna be honest. The trailer is disappointing compared to the book promotion one. It just looks cheap and…
I’m also dissapointed. The book trailers looked way better , more raw and gritty with full of emotions and sexual tension.. the book trailers made me feel so many things , the chemistry and intensity took my breath way …but the trailers with the recast actors make me feel… empty :/ but i’m still holding hope that it’ll be much better than i expected
