This really brings me so much joy. For once, the secret between the characters will be crazy fun to reveal, not sad, melodramatic (maybe a bit dramatic tho haha) and I'm waiting! I'm reminded of shooting stars by the same director - it wasn't a genre-defining show or anything like that, but it was competent, cute and fun, just like this one!
I'm wondering about the ML "finally deciding to live a real life" at the end of the show, instead of only watching movies. Cause like - he had a very good real life? A well paying job connected to his hobby, a loving brother who was spending a lot of time with him, friends, girlfriend even. That isn't a life that requires giving up on your biggest hobby and some escapism is not a bad thing. If FL's father was alive, HE could be the one to come to this conclusion - focusing on family life instead of chasing unattainable dream that ruins his every relationship. But the ML's movie fascination didn't hinder anything. (Let's for now not focus on the fact that I disliked the trio's friendship, but the show did want us to believe they are friends)
I actually like it. Nothing special, and has a lot of tropes I'm not too fond of (main leads not over their first…
About cringe - I actually don't mind "the ML is an otaku" cringe. I love that he's not ashamed of that! I much rather prefer this over cringy "comedic" side characters or too much aegyosal from the male and female lead...
I actually like it. Nothing special, and has a lot of tropes I'm not too fond of (main leads not over their first love which happened 15! years ago) but it isn't trying to be more than just competent entertainment. Not too cringy for my liking. No big scheming bad. Not boring tho! Characters are likeable, but have their faults as well. The second couple seems lovely too. I look forward to how the chemistry will grow between the couples.
This was okay. Yet another series that I had high hopes for but, in the end, fell short of my expectations. Woo…
Same. A lot of anticipated dramas fall flat for me, this one and Live Scout being the most recent ones. It seems like successfull actors, director and writer together still can't ensure that the drama will be great. I just hope that When Life Gives You Tangerines will be swell, cause if not, I'll lose all my hope lol
16 years later, so he’s 31? And she’s 35? I don’t believe that’s the age they’re trying to convey 🤣21…
I hate it tbh. I like the character's age to make sense, both in terms of their looks, as well as their experience and position at work. Don't they have enough actors in Korea to actually do these roles? Or cant they change their story so that these actors that they have can play younger characters? It bugs me to no end, it may be stupid for people, but I just can't stop thinking about it 😭 Like in Love Scout, the ML supposedly got to be a father very early on, when he was in college. And the daughter is 7 when the show begins. But he doesn't look and act 28-30, but 37-40 😭 In the end, I try not to pay attention, but sometimes it's hard, as I don't know what should I expect and how should I judge their actions - like 22 or 32 yo?
I understand wanting to break up, but after 7 years you'd think theyd be better at communicating their issues.…
Facts. Like I can't imagine how ANY relationship would work if you don't communicate what you like/dislike. Is he supposed to be a mind-reader or sth, to know she didn't like football when she clearly enjoyed watching it with him, laughed and cried? I feel SO bad for him, he had no chance to fight for their relationship and amend his mistakes - which weren't so fundamental! She should be an actor not a screenwriter with such background in lying tbh
Guys, pls let me know if there is actually a way to watch this with good EN subtitles in Europe > Kisskh has machine subtitles, they suck and its unwatchable > hitv has better subs but on my TV I can't put it into full screen mode. Is there any other good and reliable way? I'm not looking for a site with a milion popups either. If there is no way, I'd rather just not watch it cause it's a shame to ruin my watching experience.
Honestly 2FL is physically hurting every moment she appears on the screen. I am not saying she is wrong, but she…
Agreed l. If you want to work with him, be professional and don't give him hope! Firstly I thought he was awful to her when she came back, but as the show went on I got so frustrated for him, she comes back over and over, gives him a lot of unwanted advice etc... Like girl, have mercy for him. Not even mentioning how she cut the 1ML off as well. She's plainly awful. And she has no reason for not explaining 2ML why she left him 5 years ago!
I finished not liking any of the 4 main characters and very sad because my favourite character passed away. Jun…
Yeah, I feel like there is a difference between characters being flawed, to make them more human, and straight up unlikeable. And here we got the latter option unfortunately. Even though they has some redeeming qualities, it was not enough to make them likeable.
I just hate how the 2FL came to the bar and bitched to 2ML that he didn't contact ML after his brother's death. Like girl, do you remember that you didn't contact the ML for 5 years and had no idea about his brother's accident? I get that you have issues with your ex, but you broke up with him, let him live his life and make his mistakes. Gosh. I just hate all of them tbh. I see no bond between those three so-called "friends". All of them are just focused on their own struggles, and don't share one meaningful moment. The only healthy relationship here is Mu Bi and Jeong Hu ig. They actually care about each other.
I don’t think this is CWS problem, his emotion on ep6-7 is very much in place. It’s his character that is…
Yes, you might be right, especially that it wasn't only CWS... LJY also played with the same expression (angry at the whole world) until the recording room scene imo. Really unfortunate that they gathered such a great cast here, only for their performances to flop due to, like you said, shallow characters (I'd say that it's the director's fault too, he should guide his actors more...)
