Ok, my bad, I mixed two of them up reading the article a few days ago. Still, I stand by the fact that 1200 dollars is not enough to harass and shame someone publicly - in case of the rapper. As for the ex-boyfriend, if he paid for her house and its monthly rent why are his parents working hard to earn back the money? Did he have the money or not? Cause if he took a loan in name of a 17 year old he had to know that she probably has no legal obligation to pay it (at least in my country that would be the case). And if he didn't take a loan and his parents didn't need to pay it back, my point about being dramatic still stands. Still - if she did it, just pursue the case legally. I don't see myself ever dragging anybody online for not paying me back. They (at least the rapper) are adults, and she is a minor.
This one is so lovely! I avoided it initially cause I thought it will be meh, but it honestly delivered, it is cute and funny. Although admittedly the main couple had the best chemistry before they got together, the show still delivered even after that. And for so many couples in a single show, it was really well done!
As for the 'dramatic' plots, they were handled quickly, with no major misunderstandings, so they didn't bother me that much. I guess somebody wanted them here to raise the stakes, even though they don't fit all that well, but I can look past it. I admit that the Africa plot was the most unnecessary, good that it ended quickly...
I also discovered bc of this that I am a sucker for couples that knew each other before the show's starting point (except for the long-forgotten childhood friends trope)... Love this kind of chemistry!

What? Sorry, but I live in a country which is less developed than South Korea, and 1200 dollars is still not a big enough amount of money to ruin someone's life. Like 'his parents are working even harder to pay back the debt that Kim Ji Young incurred'? He just wanted to sound more dramatic. Especially that in other messages he wrote that it's his money ('give me my money back'), so why do his parents have to work to pay it back? Makes 0 sense.
I get that some families are less fortunate, in debt, sick and so on, and 1200 dollars may be a lot for some, especially for a teenager, but for an avarage adult in SK it shouldn't be a make-it-or-break-it. And even if it is, there are legal ways to pursue a debtor, ofc if he actually has proof. If it was 20000 dollars, then I get it, he would have been scammed a big way, but 1200 dollars? In 2021, average pay in SK was 3500 dollars/month. Minimal pay in SK is around 1200 dollars/month in 2022. I might be looking from a privilaged point of view, but it's really not enough to drag sb's name in filth.
Also, I was always kinda skeptical when I saw a money-collectors plot in kdramas: them showing in your work, in front of your house, humiliating you in any way they can. I always thought that it is just too over the top. But seeing this behaviour, I guess it's not that far from the truth as I thought. Even if she's guilty, SHE'S SEVENTEEN, how can you ruin her career and life in front of the whole nation's (and international as well) eyes? For 1200 dollars? Report her to the police, sue her, take LEGAL measuress. But I guess if you can't prove it, you can only take this kind of shitty measures.
I have no doubt this girl is the one at fault here, why? Because of what the rapper did. He wouldn't have posted…
Even if she is, so what? Is it a reason to bash her everywhere and drag her name in front of public, which will never be forgotten? Over something like 1200 dollars? No sir, this matter should be dealt with privately and not ruin a 17-year old life.
I was just checking if there are any new projects from Mr Queen's scriptwriters yesterday! So glad to see everybody coming back after that ridiculous controversies, both the main actors and the scriptwriter (though I guess that Park Kye Ok is still in the purgatory for Joseon Exorcist).
I heard this and saw the name/title everywhere so I want to ask if this is good? And happy ending?
Oh, it's good. The ending on the other hand had the audience split: there are ones who think it's a happy ending, and others who believe this is one of the worst possible endings this story could have gotten (me included).
Came here for Do Hyun, stayed for Park Sung Hoon. So good to have him back after that ridiculous controversy. And in a such a delightfully bad role!
Also, I have to mention Yeom Hye Ran. Her role in Life was like the only single thing I remember from that show and ever since then she's been one of my favourites. I just love her!
Whoever started this trend of murder subplots in korean romcoms should go to jail for crimes against humanity.
Haha, this really got me thinking about this trend - I'd say I see it in dramas more regularly from around When the Camellia Blooms, but the oldest drama I watched with this sort of plot I guess was Strong Woman Do Bong Soon? (Granted, I'm not really into dramas older than 2015). Shitty trend, but interesting I guess haha
I'm still mulling over how to summarize a bit rushed, blurry ending with weird editing, and part 2 overall. But…
The second point is 100% my feelings. Instead, they just kept changing the plot regarding her body/soul status pretty much every other episode. For what reason other than angst? Dunno. Wasn't the development more or less like this (only in 10 eps of 2nd season?): 1. Naksu's soul is the only one in her body; 2. No, JBY is still there. She's a villain who wants to use Naksu for her own gain! 3. Oh, JSR is there too! The truest villain! 4. Wait, JSR was the one there instead of JBY all along! 5. Well JSR was just there for a second and bid farewell! What a hero!
If this Called a Horrible writer idk which will call a great writer ๐ค ๐ such a great drama with so many…
The OP didn't say anything about Hong sisters personality. They can be the kindest people alive but still at the same time horrible writers. Just the same as some people are horrible actors. I am personally a horrible singer. I can't do sports even if my life depended on it. Just a statement. Do you think every teacher in your school was good? Especially the elder ones who commited their whole life to teaching. I bet not. You just can't automatically rate someone as good because they have long experience. Ofc you may say they are good, but it's others right to say they are horrible.
In my mind Hong sisters just can't keep up with the times. Their fame comes mainly from their older dramas and the standards are changing. Personally I haven't been able to finish any of their dramas. I tried 3 because of the actors that starred in it. And I dropped all of them cause they were truly subpar comparing to others. Just like the below comments mention, they may have good ideas but can't execute them well enough. Maybe if I was 12yo and their dramas were the first I've seen in my life, I'd be more inclined to love them, but right now they are meh to me and I will continue to go out of my way to avoid them.

Can you even read? Where is it mentioned that the deaths/sad ending is a problem? OP wrote: "they have been adding so many useless story lines or plot twist to create tension and excitement but they resolved all of them in the stupidest and most illogical way possible or what's even worse, they just dropped them and didn't resolve them at all".
Some people can't fathom that critical thinking can exist and the world is not black or white. You can have things you don't like in a show you love. The OP mentioned a lot of things they like. I just can't with this toxicity, every comment section concerning AoS is just a laughing stock at this point, smh
