I usually don't have a thing for bad guys, but I fell in love with Song Yoon Ah in The K2! At least for the first half of the drama. She was not a nice person, but goodness it was hard not to respect the hell out of her. She knew what she wanted, and damn anyone who was going to stand in her way.

I am the queen of dropping things, so it was really weird to see this list and have finished all of them but one :p For Goblin, I think a lot of the problem was how young Kim Go Eun is compared to Gong Yoo. I think they shied away from showing us good chemistry because of the age gap, and I don't understand why they had to make her a high school kid and cast a young girl in the role. It would have been infinitely better and less skeevy if they hadn't decided to do that.

I'm definitely willing to go in with an open mind! And hey, it probably helps that I read so much negativity. Maybe now I can be pleasantly surprised :p it happened with Lie to Me. People trashed that drama so much, I refused to watch it for years. A Yoon Eun Hye binge made me give it a shot and while I can see why people hated, I was expecting garbage and so it surprised me that there was still something there I could enjoy.

I'm hoping this is a case of unhappy people speak the loudest, and that's why there are so many negative comments! I have been dying for this drama to finish, I hope it's not a huge disappointment.

Benefit lip tint is really nice! I didn't know it was in a Kdrama, that's neat :)

Subway seriously is in like every drama these days. It has definitely made me eat there more often, since I am highly susceptible to suggestion :p I have bought makeup brands that I have seen in Dramas before! I really fell in love with Laneige because of a drama. And thus made my mother, best friend and soon to be sister-in-law fall in love with it as well :p So I'd say they are doing a pretty good job of it! It's funny, because product placement in American shows has never worked on me (except for with Chuck and Subway. Seriously, I am the worst about Subway). But Kdramas have convinced me to buy a lot of things!

So much this! Every single one of these is spot on. Especially the last one. I can't even count how many times I have been shocked that someone didn't punch someone in the face for the way they were acting/talking. Or wonder how people let their sunbaes hit them or treat them like trash without doing anything about it. It makes me wonder if I am an inherently violent person :p Cause I can promise you, if it was me in the dramas, a lot more people would be sporting broken noses!

I wholeheartedly agree with you on the confusion over what is keeping me watching this show! It's just so weirdly bad, but bad in a way that is also oddly good. It's a strange feeling with this show.

You should check out Twenty Again with Chou Ji Woo! I loved her that one. She starts off as a doormat, but she grows into this great character who knows what she wants and is going to get it, while still making all of the people around her realize their dreams too. It's cute and totally utilizes Choi Ji Woo's cutesy/naive aspects perfectly.

I never really shipped them together as a couple, but I was a huge fan of their chemistry! I really loved scenes with them, and kept wanting them to come to an understanding and be friends. As for her death, I was disappointed with the way they handled it. It was such a cheap shot. Yoo Jin was my favorite thing about the drama, but by the end, I would have been ok with it if she had gone out in a blaze of glory defending her claim to mirror. The way they did it just totally cheapened her character and that made me sad.

I haven't made it to My Sunshine yet, but I did watch LO2O and Boss and Me without even realizing they were connected til about halfway through. I just kept thinking it was neat that the company in LO2O was called Feng Teng, too :p if they hadn't had a different actor playing Feng Teng in LO2O I probably would have picked it up sooner :p

I am dying to finish the drama so that I can read the story! I am excited about the bonus KO and Hao Mei closure that was mentioned a couple comments down :)

Seriously, I couldn't understand every time that they said she wasn't pretty. Er Xi might even be prettier than Wei Wei. She is definitely cuter with her giant eyes and cute pixie hair cut! And seriously, how did anyone say that the girl who had a crush on Xiao Nai is the prettiest in the school? Er Xi's inferiority complex toward Wei Wei was understandable, and I could get how she could be upset about everything happening to her, but being upset with Wei Wei was taking it too far. It's not like Wei Wei told her to use her real user name in the interview. And it's not like Wei Wei gave Cao Guang her user name. Not to mention, Wei Wei gave her almost 3000 yuan to pay off Er Xi's debt to Cao Guang, and defended her against those evil girls who tormented her at work. Wei Wei has been nothing but an excellent friend to Er Xi, and it's arguable that Er Xi ever did anything that really made her a good friend to Wei Wei.

Haha, now it's my turn to ramble :p I am just so irritated with Er Xi right now :p I have 5 episodes left, I am hoping she redeems herself!

I watched LMIYD before I started I Remember You, so I had the opposite problem with IRY :p I couldn't finish it because each episode just made me want to go back and rewatch LMIYD. It takes a couple of episodes before the romance really starts to become apparent. I think once they leave her home town and make it to the city, it really starts to pick up :)

That could be it, because I seriously don't see how anyone could say that Cao Guang was second in attractiveness to Xiao Nai :p But I actually think Er Xi is prettier than most of the females on the show. My main problem is that Cao Guang is just such an awful character. He feels entitled to Bei Wei Wei's love even though she has never given him any indication that she is interested in him. When Wei Wei straight up told him that she sincerely doesn't like him and doesn't want to waste more time on trying to broaden his worldview, I wanted to clap. That is one boy who needs to stop being so self-centered and entitled. And I'm at the part right now where Er Xi is mad at Wei Wei because of all of the misunderstandings going on, so I'm mad at her for being mad at Wei Wei :p

Seriously! I wish they used him more than they have so far. 6 episodes left and I'm hoping he gets a lot more screen time :)

I was going to recommend Boss and Me, but I see you have already watched it. They aren't super similar, but they do remind me a little bit of each other.

I wouldn't really say that these two shows are comparable, because they are very different, but have you checked out Love Me If You Dare? I know this is going to sound like such a weird recommendation, since LO2O is just so light and breezy and fun, and Love Me If You Dare is dark and twisty and intense. They really are disparate! But!!! The romance has the same feel to it. A hot guy who has a lot of things going for him falling in love for the first time with a girl who is exceptional in his field. The romance in Love Me If You Dare is so sweet and tender and Simon takes care of Jenny the same way Xiao Nai cares for Wei Wei.

I ship KO and Hao Mei so much. I mean, I love Xiao Nai and Wei Wei, but I just want more of KO and Hao Mei. And none of Er Xi and Cao Guang, for the love of all good things. Am I the only one who seriously hates everything about their storyline?

I keep thinking while watching this that it reminds me so much of Boss and Me! How neat that it is connected!

I think the two shows are like night and day. W being the darker, melodramatic, existentially angsty, action packed night, whereas Love O2O is the sunshiney, bright and goofy day. I had a really hard time getting through W and still haven't finished the last two episodes. But this drama, I watched 18 episodes before I even realized it. It just feels so nice to watch it, where W made me anxious and bored in turns. I don't think it's fair to say one is better than the other, since they are such disparate dramas.

No, oh my god me too! I thought I was alone in thinking that. It's not all of the time, but sometimes he looks so much like L I have to do a double take.
