The music is weird with this one. That fanfare ugh please stop it was so cringe and weird. You’ve got Irish and the country western and then the usual typical cdrama stuff, like what on earth was going on with the soundtrack was just so random. I was really looking forward to this show and I’m giving it a 7.5 because it was a little disappointing. Two great leads should have produced a much better show, but the writing fails them this time. Yes the tropes are there, but honestly what killed this for me was the absolute ridiculous way they deal with issues. I am so exhausted by crappy writing for these break up tropes, grown adults upset about the most childish of reasons. The ages of the cast here should have produced more mature feel. It’s there in every other way except the relationship development. Once they are over the nonsense this show picks right back up and will leave a sense of completeness. I enjoyed the other couples, but oh boy the best friend and her advice sucked big time. Why are we believing the advice from a girl with commitment issues??? This could have been a real top show, but sadly it’s still not coming close to the excellence of Hidden Love.
So so close. The FL drove me nuts. Every single time they get close enough for a kiss she runs off. Seriously are we in middle school????!!! The non communication is ridiculous too. My faves might actually be the professor friend couple, that was clearly developing but oh so sweet as he realized how he felt. I do think the writing is the main problem here. so close but yet so far.
For me this was a mid show. I didn't like how Park Eun Bin portrayed the immaturity similar to the austistic behaviour…
I did feel a lot of similarities to her acting in Attorney Woo, but to be honest, what is she supposed to do. She’s an actor who is uniquely herself, and like all actors incl talented ones you see repeats of how they perform across the roles they play.
I did not expect that. In fact I wasn’t so sure I was going to even watch it. Something about it put me off. Couldn’t tell you either. However, that might just be in the Top 5 shows of the year for me. Hard to beat Forbidden Marriage & My Dearest, but it’s right up there. Incredible. 10/10.
A very relaxed slower paced show, despite it being about formula racing lol, which is the only thing that goes fast here! The development of the romance is even slower so don’t expect anything to massively progress here. It is a nice drama though with actual adults for a change and not the typical silly childish FL. There was a nice script until later in the series when we get thrown the typical break up trope that makes zero sense and all it does is digress the FL role again. The last part of this felt a little out of sync with the direction it did feel like we were headed. Overall I’m giving this a 8, because I enjoyed the feel and the theme. Skipped alot of the last 5-6 episodes.
This show is a 5 from me. And I’m being generous. Oh what a major disappointment. Honestly I’m surprised our beloved “Park” duo even knew what they were getting into when they agreed to the Cameo’s - which are a highlight of course. What an embarrassing show to be connected with. Stay for the eye candy of the main men of the show. The cop team were the best actors by far and worth sticking around for aswell, but oh boy that FL destroyed the show. Her acting is brash and childish throughout, the romance, I’m sorry is non existent- theres nothing believable about the ML or the baddy falling in love with her the way they did, nope not at all. Zero chemistry. Looked forward to this one the minute the project was announced but they screwed it up big time in the way this was casted and directed. The story gets draggy in parts too. I ended up skipping a ton towards the end just to get it over with. This is not the sequel you hoped for.
Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. One of the best kdaramas and historicals ever. Red sleeve angst. Bloody Heart cinematography. Incredible acting. Beautiful OST. Have watched so many mid shows lately this one put 10 stars back on the map!
Oh gosh thats finally over. Skipped all the way through, the beginning is…. Who even knows… the middle a total psychotic mess, and then the show finally seems to gather some momentum towards the end. Still, you see a complete personality shift in one of the characters that just leaves you asking “why?” - I am still confused as the high ratings for this hot mess.
What a stunning drama! Acting, story, casting, ost, settings!! This one is hands down a beautiful show, with so many fun and upbeat humorous parts, with equally tender and heartwarming scenes too. Absolutely a must watch.
Incredible cDrama! Mature and well paced melodrama- that certainly showcases the power of women when they come together. Clearly it takes a long time for the FL to land on her feet. I would have preferred a long resolution at the end. Final episode was very rushed. Needed a solid HEA for the 2FL who honestly starts to feel like the FL at times, she has a lot of airtime. I mean this is a HEA show for everyone but the baddy husband, but still it would have been nice to get a little longer for the happy parts. Great drama. Music is also well chosen. Absolutely you will need to binge this drama it is so hard to put down!
Great beginning- but odd rushed ending, with a somewhat sweet love story for the mains in between. Skipped almost the entire nonsense for the 2nd couple story, it held zero interest for me. The chemistry between the leads was great but got so tiresome with the constant issues. The toxic evil witch mothers of China unite in this show, just two too many of them. 🤣
Where to rate this? I gave it a 6/10 because I did love the leads but the way one behaves got tiresome. The writer was all over the place here. At times I felt like we had a great heart warming melodrama with some unique storytelling and the next minute we’ve been sunk into the typical annoying “go-to” ugly cdrama tropes. Come on, you totally wrecked what could have been a A1 show.
Most this drama can be skipped. Easy. Far too long. Cut out the crap and you’d have a nice 20-24 ep drama.
Let me first clear this out of the way, JCW is my fav actor and I have been waiting for this drama since the day…
agreed I actually dropped HCCC at that point and took me almost a year before I was so bored with dramas and thought I’d try finishing it. it was ok, but deffo not something I will ever watch again or rave about. its mid. My opinion. Find it so funny how others can’t wrap their heads around that something they love isn’t loved by everyone and then get uptight about it. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Like for reals we all like diff things. My kid only watches thrillers and horror in the world of K dramas. Me, not so much.
7 at best that takes 30 episodes to even get a little more romance in a show that is pitching itself as a romance drama you got to do better than that. Theres times this script is a pile of nonsense, actually a lot of the script is especially the constant nonsense coming from the 2FL. It’s exhausting and you’ll probably spend a lot of the show skipping. Carlo the dog is the MVP and is not even on the cast list… why not??!?!!!! He is the best and the captain of the ship from the start. There are some nice scenes and a good cast of comrades at the Vet clinic despite this weird behavior early on. It gets just a 7 for me. Fix the 2FL crap and get the romance going a bit faster and please LESS of this obsession in Cdramas of the FL always been a silly little girl who is naive. Strong mature FLs are so much better!
Theres a trope a minute in this show, so if you’re up for a bit if that you’ll be able to tolerate it!!! The ONLY trope missing from this show is the cold fish kisses, thank goodness… yep these two know how to kiss. The ending could have been a bit better, but oh well- you can skip the last few episodes its pointless dragging, and the script feels like it was written by a middle school kid.
There’s plenty of toxic evil and psycho enemies in this series too. Like enough already. Confused by the high viki rating cos this show is utter nonsense, but whatever, must be a lot of young girls who don’t understand life 🤣🤣🤣
