The character development for iJi is so annoyingly, excruciatingly slow lol. She acts all tough but is a total pushover and completely folds when it comes to the higher-ups. For a former nat player, she’s way too weak—especially mentally. She can’t even stand up for herself in front of her trainees. This redemption arc better be worth all this sh1t lol.
Jang Seung Jo is the saving grace of this drama. He’s a theater actor afterall- his portrayal of the character didn’t miss. if you’re not into the teeny-bop plastic surgical looking perfect male and female leads- this one’s for you. Lol. Makjang Thriller series. Kim Ha Neul will always be either a hit or miss in her series. Sadly, its a miss on this one.
This movie is deeply rooted in the realities of Korean apartment living, portraying the common dream of a typical office worker to one day own a home—despite the soaring prices and increasingly strict eligibility requirements in Seoul. The film also highlights the obsession with cryptocurrency, seen by many as a desperate escape from mounting debt. The norms and realities depicted in the film might not fully resonate with a global audience, which is likely why many viewers seemed confused or disconnected in the comments. Still, Kang Ha-neul’s brilliant performance stands out—he carries the film more than the plot itself. Giving this movie anything below a 5 feels both pretentious and criminal. lol
Its a box-office hit in its mother country-SK. the top grossing film of 2025. And holds an 8.91 rating on Naver Movies, a 97% Golden Egg Score on CGV, and a 9.4 audience score on Lotte Cinema. This MDL rating is a joke. Lol
Young Woo is everywhere right now, but his acting and delivery in this series felt weak and flimsy. There’s definitely room for improvement. Thankfully, he was surrounded by strong, seasoned actors who helped carry the weight of the scenes.
Thank you, Tastefully Yours! I watched it till the end—and what a fun ride it was. One thing’s for sure amid all the brouhaha: I’ll miss the quartet gang! We laughed, loved, got mad, felt disappointed, and ended on a bittersweet note. Honestly, it felt like going through a heartbreak—messy but meaningful. Not everything will go your way, and that’s part of the journey. And Let’s all just enjoy Ha Neul’s god-tier face card and unmatched theatrical flair—and Go Min Si casually serving barefaced beauty. Knowing how picky Ha Neul is with romance projects, this is probably our last romcom sighting for years. Lol. (insert OST: Kimchi and Smile)
The ones rating this movie poorly are mostly kids who are into ‘cutie-patootie’ plots and the same old lame romantic dramas with plastic-looking male leads who are only famous on Instagram. lol
Rom-coms just aren’t for Go Min Si. I hope this will be her first and last in the genre—her acting here feels flat and unconvincing. Honestly, I’m only watching this for Kang Ha Neul. His micro-expressions, theatrical flair, strong screen presence, and experience are the redeeming qualities of this show. Disregarding his character in this drama- I just can’t bring myself to dislike the man; he’s very picky with his projects, especially romance dramas, so I’m not sure why he agreed to this one. Still, I’ll see it through. I’m enjoying it—thanks to him. lol
Nara’s character is insufferable. Right off the bat. They shouldn’t have gotten back together, considering the things they were into. Not convincing. If you look at it closely, their chemistry isn’t that great. It was just disguised in funny scenes.
I don’t mind the usual romcom clichés—especially when the cast totally delivers. This drama is entertaining and heartwarming. I just needed a lighthearted K-drama this month, and it hit the spot. KHN’s character isn’t your typical perfect male lead who’s overly reserved and emotionless. Instead, he brings a cringy, over-the-top, theatrical flair that he’s honestly so good at. definitely worth watching and not to be slept on Netflix.
I am always drawn to these kinds of genre. SLICE OF FULL LIFE. its about how they overcome and react when life throws them lemons. instead, they treat lemons as tangerines. It is sweeter. It encourages optimism and hardwork in times of adversity.
The way this drama portrayed Yi BangWon(King) is disappointing and so wrong in many ways. i understand that Lady Min is the central character in this saeguk but twisting Bang Won’s persona here is a joke. You cant take this drama seriously especially if you know history. Yes, this is fiction but it is still based on historical data. smh.
while everyone’s fave is obviously reply 88, here i am still going gaga over 94, with Na Jung and Re Kki’s realistic loveline development. I related more to the character of this installment than the other two. and that’s ok. to each their own. lol
Giving this movie anything below a 5 feels both pretentious and criminal. lol
