I liked that the leads are imprefect as hell, and have a lot of room for growth. It bothered me in HP, how ideally the professors were portrayed. And here of course I got annoyed a few times, but it's satisfying to see them learn and be a better person.
God, what a lovely person you are to bring my loved ones into a conversation. Hope you never acted rudely to a colleague or a student in your class, cause if ypu did I guess you would have to be canceled forever and never forgiven?
I hate when second leads who would better stay friends with the main lead, suddenly catch feelings. Like in Her Private Life - the FL and 2ML were so cute as friends. Or Castaway Diva, giving us unnecessary feud between two brothers in love with the same girl.
I would actually appreciate that if a kdrama needs to have two leads fighting over a girl, the fight would be more equal. Like we wouldn't know from the start who the FL would choose, like in Reply 1988. Or just abandon second leads falling for main girl altogether.
This is not always the case. It's just about who seems like the better character. Like the second lead in True…
Good poiny about 2nd leads not having any growth. I actually hate that instead of giving them actual plot, writers often just give them an unrequited love to the main lead and call their job done.
Why would the story reset in the last episodes since even in the original story they die? I don't get it.
Two possible explanations: 1. SYM can't die before all the iconic scenes are reenacted, 2. The lady screenwriter wrote it that way, cause everything is just a script within a script.
The creators were intentionally ambiguous about it, and I wouldn't take LYN's words for any kind of confirmation.…
Yes, the pause is just too telling imo! Also playing with the namecard and watching AJTL. I was unsure about the portal too, but I think they put the in for us to be 200% sure that it's NH 😅 cause I feel that if we didn't get it, some fans would be speculating that it's NF just reciting a line from the script haha. They made sure we know it' a happy ending.
Seriously, some people here need validation through ratings/ from Avenuex each time? I know she has 130K people…
She is one of the best reviewers of cdramas, and explains well a lot of background stuff, so I don't see why not tag her. Tho I agree that our feelings about a show don't need validation from others, and seeking it can lead to unnecessary frustration.
I’ve just found this post on FB. It’s kinda make the brilliant sense for the chemical reaction of the weapon…
Naah, the "original" formula has Fe, which stands for iron. It was gibberish, but had something in common with forging weapons (but made no sense due to no poor research from scriptwriter most likely). But the FL admitted that she doesn't recognize this formula and then wrote the cheezy love letter. She just wrote whatever came to her mind, and was aware of it too.
It was hard to watch so many scenes of CGH spiraling, but honestly I felt that he represents all the haters in the world that will never accept any facts and will only take their prejudice into account, and are even capable of faking evidence. So while it was hard to watch his scenes, I didn't feel it was too much, as some people still didn't get it and are hating on LYT for no reason, not even mentioning how the hate train on LYN during AJTL was insane.
the thing about this show is that...if you hate the misunderstanding trope....you are gonna HAAATTTEEE this show;…
As a hater of misunderstandings, I really don't think they were too bad here. Like it didn't last ages like some other dramas. And yeah, the comedy helped a lot.
