She's being like those scary managers that tell idols to shush and the idols look over the camera and their face changes
Basically zero understanding of romance like the scene she was filming him and he leaned in too much and they reached the floor in such a cheesy nonsensical way...
Where is the bromance? Even the group isn't bonding and mingyu is so stiff the only chemistry is with that black dressed guy who barely had any scenes so basically byyyeeeee

The past, either the romance or the revenge and everything related to the 2 villains, skiiippp
The villagers are dumb, and now I’m realizing annoying mask girl is an older woman? And his wife? Or are there 2? Still I hate useless plot moves like that, like who the heck would wear a mask 24/7, it literally dries in 10mins🤡
So basically this is one big drag on something that should’ve been a movie
If those are his kids that’s even worse
The mom is just evil yelling at someone who doesn’t remember it worse is mentally 6

as an mdl feature we are allowed to review dropped dramas, and I have a point to just review everything
like most webtoon adaptations, it lacks reasons for characters behaviors, everything is flashy and overdramatic, for example fl took a pic of an after school class. and they chased her like she was a thief that she had to hide on the roof? ridiculous
the drug things are also way too unbelievable, everyone is popping pills to study better xD and going to drs to get prescriptions to resell, in this economy?

Psycho But It's Not Okay
this is ridiculous! honestly this is not makjang, this is psychopathicness................................ and like it's not a "I don't believe this" but this is just taking the most extreme idea and acting as if it's "original" or "revolutionary".everyone is crazy, everyone is a psychopath and everyone is a self centered entitled brat, not just the kids EVERYONE.
I hate that I'm dropping this because the actors are amazing, and most of them are my favorites, but this just makes my blood boil...
honestly I was laughing so hard, and I was rolling my eyes every 2 seconds..
1- I said if Seol Ah turns out to be Soo Ryun's daughter I'd drop it and guess what... (and that's my point, the 1st most ridiculous crazy idea comes to mind and that's what the writer used. that's just basic) that's what they're implying and I don't even want to see them "shock" the viewers ;/
2- Seo Jin is a psychopath, she doesn't just want to win, she wants to make her competitors suffer.
3- Dan Tae is a psychopath, that scene where he hired gangsters and killed Soo Ryun's husband in a dramatic way was just so infuriatingly ridiculous. but he also proceeds to cut his finger and KEEP IT.
4- Yoon Hee is a victim but she, just like her daughter and seol ah, fuels the fires of those psychopaths. like yes she had to be angry but to threaten seo jin to the point she slashed her throat? that's crazy on both ends
5- one 15 year old against a gang load of crazy psychopathic rich people... honestly she messed with the wrong bunch and she pretends that they're out to get her;
A- she fakes her identity and pokes the crazy cubs.
B- she takes pictures of the 2 psychopaths having an affair
C- she wins against yoon hee's victim mentality and her daughter
D- she literally threw a match on the already angry and crazy bunch and she exposes the kids bullying (like girl you should've just went to the cops and the newspapers. sold the exclusive, got money and went to France to sing real opera)
F- she walks with her own two 15 YEAR old feets to the enemies' lair and she gets kidnapped. then killed...
6- non of the middle schoolers looked 15, they looked 20 as they were ;/ honestly is it so hard to cast actual 15 year olds ;/
7- yoon hee literally was ready to KILL a 15 year old for a spot in a highschool! like just save your money and move to France! she should've moved 15 years ago tbh, no one there would've cared that she lost ONE award. (which she makes it sound like that ruined her life, no it was your threats against a psychopath)
8- everyone else is just as crazy and self conscious, you'd think money would make them happy ;/
9- the 1st weeks eps were almost 2 hours!
10- in sky castle the kids were mostly ok, and the characters were driven by their pasts. and for world of the married it was a revenge story about a cheating husband and the clueless wife (though the 2nd half and ending did reach the overboard makjang) but this, this was purely made for "how crazy can it get" and koreans love that but it just makes me role my eyes and compare it to The 100 which is a dystopian story xD
11- bae rona is crazy, she lost 1 competition and she was about to slash her throat! yes talent matters, but you can't always win, and you certainly need to know your battles.. again like there aren't 2 opera people in the world, she should've looked for someone else but no she blames her mom ;/ smh it is the mom's fault she didn't raise her right..
12- honestly opera is not a rich people hobby, they can't buy vocals with money and honestly buying people's opinion doesn't matter once everyone sees they have no talent, they literally had no reason for all of them to peruse opera. they could've just chose classical music.
13- the kids didn't need to be 15. they could've been 18 year olds fighting to enter their top 3 universities, were they afraid becasue the top3 were called SKY xD
14- two 40+ year olds literally kidnapped and possibly killed a 15 year old ;/
the good, that are sad becasue I'm dropping this
1- I honestly LOVE the actresses here, I've been waiting for Lee Ji Ah since Ghost Detective, Kim So Yeon since Mother Of Mine and this was my 1st time seeing Rohee's mom Eugene and they are all such amazing actresses!
2- the setting, the outfits, the makeup, the visuals are all so beautiful
3- this was my most anticipated drama ever since I heard about the castings ;(
this saddens me more than hating When I was The Prettiest and Alice becasue I expected something beautiful and amazing ;(
I actually love opera and the ost were nice but I can't take that plot

they should've just made this into a romcom, Kang Ji Min is a really sweet ml who never snooped or judged which is refreshing but it takes away the spice of makjangs, and woojoo was an adorable baby girl. Lee Il Hwa is also great in here but tbh as an evil mother in law she only needed 1 DNA test to prove the relationship between the fl and her daughter, so like it didn't need 7eps for her to find out but atleast it's better than alice and the detective not having a DNA test on his mom's look alike ;/

I’m not in this for the angst so I’m not gonna lie after the first half, it became a snoozeShe’s so frustrating that she doesn’t see his intentions
And he’s tooo cute man I can’t take it, when she’s talking about her likes and dislikes and he’s just so invested that he was like yeah write it all down and give it to me, the dude is the greenest flag
before the synopsis change, and not reading it, ie not knowing this will be a cliche childhood connection, I had fun thinking it's an anti cliche, 2ml is the childhood connection and ml/fl loved each other as normal adults...
but If she’s 30, and he's 36, so as kids, it doesn't make sense for him to not forget a literal baby, if he was 12 and she was 6...
he was 16, she was 10... sure his life didn't revolved around love so he never dated, and he liked her again as a new person and he was happier she was the same kid
but she never forgot him, and again tho she liked him back as an adult and didn't know the truth till the end, but boom instead of more getting to know one another she was satisfied that was him
so things went down with that revelation, and 2ml became a creep that watched kids shows..
tho I am happy in small ways, they did become interested in each other just because, and their "dating" stage began before she knew he was the one she obsessively was looking for
and no matter the "destiny", I wished it wasn't such a big force in the plot, but otherwise they didn't have much plot and it's one draggy plot
Like I don’t understand how this annoyingly over aegyo fl unfit for her 30year old self, finally finally not only finds her creepy childhood crush, but also that adorable natural aegyo ml who she age shames for being older than her, and she doesn’t jump up at him and act double the cheesy aegyo together? Cuz now she’s too busy with work??
how did she never go around hugging him like dang girl was acting like she’s too good for him

Plot done to death, just kill love triangles and focus on friendship stories T_T
Sassy go go, school 2017, age of youth, my comparisons and my hopes. Sadly it's too much like the 1st two and nothing like the 3rd oneThis is cute and she is one of the rare cutie, she's social and fun loving so her bubbly personality makes sense and her past trauma doesn't make her jaded or self pitying. But the story doesn't do anything me
The ml feels bland, I'm glad his getting more recognition but he has no depth, he just feels like the neighborhood's sunbae
Atleast the uni and club stuff should make me nostalgic but I don't connect. The dance doesn't seem to have any purpose
Maybe back in 2016 I'd have liked it more. I compared this to sassy go go tho tho I don't know know if I'd like that either now🤣 I also would've hoped for a age of youth type of friendship but tbh the love triangle and the romance ruins the potential of it being a fun slice of life experience even like school 2017

and i love the aesthetics
but certain eps are just mindless talking, as a kdrama watcher, 16eps are a drag, only a few deserve real 20eps, and lately 12eps are also pushing it
it's a sad reality, a good writing can fix anything, but these days people sell a plot which sounds great, they get the ep count, but they don't know how to fill it so usually flat side characters and mindless talks/actions to waste time
but they're too cute and i think this is the only time I can watch and stay through a cdrama xD

This revolves so much on the cheating, and everything just happens to go wrong for the one who didn’t cheatthey had amazing actors, but storywise it's just another repetition of "unfortunate fl"
Honestly not telling the other husband and going to the mistress’s house like that? Crazy
It’s funny that finally a kdrama has two good husbands, but as a process it’s so annoying and cliche, it’s like even the throw water scene was exactly like avengers social club
But this in no way reaches its lvl

The last two eps and maybe the first two were really great, if this was shorter it’d have been a 10/10
But the overall pace of this was sloppy, they took many circles around one subject, maybe it’d have been better if they went after different ghosts connected to that final boss
Like she killed someone and that person turned into a neighborhood ghost..
Mainly the couple of eps before this felt really draggy
But anyway KTR and her whole embodiment of that person ghost was honestly SO ON POINT

also, every time MDS slaps someone I feel bad, that must HURT ;)
my rewatch value is either a 1 or 10, and this was a one time watch..

But here the "unfortunate event" was going undercover as chicken restaurant owners! And their restaurant gets famous xD
That part was refreshing usually they go undercover as bad guys and become bad guys and blah blah...
The chicken part did get draggy but it was interesting to see how everything got to the last point...
And that last confrontation did have alot of noce actions scenes to wrap things up nicely..
I loved the team, each one had their own flavor and they really carried the show. Plus the comedy is exactly my style~
My rewatch value is either a 1 or a 10 and this was fun enough for a rewatch

But I hate more how work is all loveydovey when in reality all I get is obsessed coworkers who are jealous of me they keep trying to sabotage me and want what I get, but if I point it out I become a complainer with teamwork issues 🤡
I only like the mls personality, his idiotic self that’s still soft hearted
Tho it’s worse that he’s a caring manager as opposed to mine who keeps finding excuses to point out my small mistakes

She never stops talking…and she’s 32? teens are more mature than her. She’s worse than an airhead bubbly 2010s fls
The chemistry is non existent, her friendship is so fake and their conflicts are trash
the cringe, jun song seo has proved her acting and her strong character charisma but what the heck is that train wreck of fake high pitched aegyo?
Like literally I waited cuz since her job is faking personalities for different events like a bff for a wedding but she did not stop

their lighting, set and camera just feels too cheap compared to a kdrama, and they are also kinda forcing in a love line; "ml gets sick so fl has to cook for him. insert plot twist, she can't cook but she doesn't know that" thing is overused.
their outfits were cute, and the fl was nice, but their dynamic is also overused that it's just boring to watch. the cases are always like "it's not what it looks like, and we must add a twist" and knowing there's gonna be a twist every single time takes away from the twist.
