watched a fan edit of the show and seriously! song kang's such an eye-candy! and the chemistry between the leads- i can feel it just from clips and snippets! no wonder this was popular.

i finished watching! not sure if i enjoyed the whole journey or understood the show correctly (i believe myungha's sunbae is probably THE cha yeo woon that penned the script from the game that myungha got dragged into, which sounds like a mess logic-wise but i cannot come up with any better theory with my two brain cells oof) but the message is pretty nice!

just curious, so the 29-year-old is going to end up with the 18-year-old in this?

in the theater ^^

in the theater ^^

i wouldn't say i loved the characters or the plot that much, but it was entertaining! byun yohan's role was chaotic good, adding humor to the overall thrilling watch. the main leads rocked their roles, so at least you can be satisfied with the acting.

oh yea definitely definitely. i don't recall her saying anything either but there's some shots of her staring at him or reacting in ways that made me believe she had a thing for him during the watch.

thought i saw a few moments the fl did show signs of attraction to ml, for instance scene where she agreed to spend the night with him in the company/ in his office(?) but yes this makes sense!

now THAT's too much spoiler my friend TvT
I thought it was pretty obvious how the drama portrayed it but it was never directly addressed so I guess I can understand why OP may be confused LOL

nope!

thanks so much (i dont know how many times i have said this omg) for the additional infos! i'll make sure to note that as well when i get to those shows~~

very valuable information, thank you so much!! I'll refer to your reply when i watch those shows! i'll try my best to enjoy those boring sequences i guess haha

very valuable information, thank you so much!! I'll refer to your reply when i watch those shows! i'll try my best to enjoy those boring sequences i guess haha

side question: regarding the chinese dramas you recommended, can one watch only scenes with the main leads and still get the majority of the plot/ main plot? i'm an impatient fella, and i have very limited free time while i would like to watch as many shows as i could lol

hey there! i know it's a late reply, but i wanted to let you know i wanted to reply as soon as I logged back here!
- weightlifting fairy was funny and bright from what i could remember, haha, although i do think the plot was simple and i wouldn't rate it as high as i did if i watch it again.
- slapstick comedy and some plot points in strong woman do bong soon made me kinda dislike it by the end ^^'
- my roommate is a gumiho was not that entertaining to me, and i'm kind of critical when it comes to fantasy plots~
- that winter the wind blows omg i loved jo insung and the romance was interesting there, but i did feel a bit icky about fl thinking the ml was her brother in some of the romantic scenes methinks. also heres what i thought about the show 6 years ago when i finished it lol https://kisskh.at/5200-that-winter-the-wind-blows#comment-2148365
- i dont remember much about why i gave '5 ji kara 9 ji made' a 6 honestly ^^' bet that show was not very memorable to me... not that i have a very good memory either lol
- i guess people like i'm not a robot for its supposed wholesome romance, i get that. but again, as a picky fantasy watcher, especially as a younger edgy self, it probably felt too ridiculous a plot to me back then lol.
- Till The End Of The Moon / Love Like The Galaxy will definitely be my next chinese shows i watch! thanks for the warning, looking forward to its contents!
- i wouldn't say i'm a hard grader these days, as i've put my enjoyment foremost rather than obsessing over analyzing the plot like my life depends on it like before lol
didn't realize we both got roses in our usernames! nice coincidence there

omg your reply !! i will make time to reply properly asap. just know that i was very glad reading it!
thanks for the friend add also <3

yep! here's a comment i made upon finishing it: https://kisskh.at/2294-breathless#comment-6299497
(rated it 6 at that time, so probably this isn't the drama that aged well with time, at least imo)
