People might argue the criticism is premature since it hasn’t aired yet, but the concerns go beyond simply jumping to conclusions. • The actors aren't the right fit: It’s not about disliking them, but they don't embody the characters in a way fans expect. • The trailer didn’t do it justice: The teaser failed to capture the essence of the manhwa, missing its core vibe. • It’s about honoring the original work: This is an adaptation, and it should remain faithful to the source. Right now, that respect seems lacking. • Fans are the primary audience: The majority of viewers will be fans of the manhwa who expect the show to stay true to the original, but this doesn’t seem to hit the mark. • This is the first ORV adaptation: It’s the first time the series is being adapted, and it’s disheartening to see expectations drop before it even premieres. • It might be good for newcomers: For those who haven’t read the webtoon, the show could still be enjoyable on its own because the production looks good. • I’ll keep an open mind: I plan to watch it and keep my expectations realistic until it airs, but right now, it doesn’t look promising. • The casting is the real issue: Fans are upset because we’ve invested time in these characters. Ahn Hyo Seop as Kim Dokja seems fine, but Lee Min Ho as Yoo Joong Hyuk? He just doesn’t fit the role. • The girls are okay but not ideal: They’re passable, but I expected more when adapting such a beloved series. At the end of the day, it’s okay to have different opinions, but fans are justified in feeling concerned when something this important seems off.
I just rewatched LTHY and had to check Kim Ok Bin out. After reading her bio, I realized she’s pretty much just…
That being said, This was a decent watch, but her character was definitely a highlight. The plot was pretty cliché — a guy who usually avoids women ends up falling for one who’s 'not like the others.' It was super predictable, but sometimes those clichés are just fun. Plus, their constant banter was great — I love an enemies-to-fake-dating-to-lovers trope. It really added to the whole experience. I’d give it an 8/10 — a solid take on a well-worn plot.
I just rewatched LTHY and had to check Kim Ok Bin out. After reading her bio, I realized she’s pretty much just being herself. She trained in martial arts as a kid, got third dan in Hapkido and second dan in Taekwondo. She also practices Muay Thai, boxing, loves cars, motorcycles, and speed racing. She builds computers, plays soccer and baseball, and had an IQ of 141 as a child. Oh, and she’s ambidextrous. Honestly, she’s just ridiculously cool.
The forced hate is so obvious, lol. I can't believe people are going as far as creating bot accounts just to downrate a drama. What do they even think they'll accomplish? At the end of the day, this drama is a hit, and the actors, directors, and everyone involved did an incredible job!
I’ve been waiting for PMY to land a role like this. She’s incredibly talented. Her recent script choices may not have been the best, but that doesn’t change how strong her acting is. She always delivers, and I really hope people start to see just how good she truly is.
I’m on episode 12 and saw the Du guy hit Shohua. DID HE ACTUALLY HIT HER, If it keeps going like this, I don’t know if I can keep watching. I’ve already lost interest in this couple, and I feel like there’s no coming back from this. Do you think it’s worth continuing or should I just stop here?
February is stacked with dramas, and with exams on top of that, I don't know how I'm going to juggle it all. But hey, as the saying goes, 'where there's a will, there's a way.' This one’s got me the most excited out of all the upcoming releases, and I can't wait to watch it. I might catch up on the others later, but I need this one now. PHS with long hair? Dream come true. He's definitely here to slay!
ok i was about to start this one. but the ratings are already this down like 7.8? is this bad? let me know. should I watch this. i love the cast though.
