Yeah, the ML and FL romance does not work for me, it is clear the ML likes the ghost lady [honestly, I cannot blame him, she is very endearing and fun].

Yeah, it is very rare for a kdrama to not raise my blood pressure or make me sad. Even Gaus Electronics stressed me a bit [just a tiny bit] and most of the drama is pure comedy.

The world will be a better place if every cheater was pushed down a set of stairs, tbh.

Finished it! It went by faster than it should because I was skipping some of the villain focused stuff and I mostly skimmed through the final episode because I detest the dogshit separation trope in dramas.

The romance was overall cute, the leads were likeable, but I do have to say we do not get nearly enough fluff scenes and moments where the leads are happy together. It takes forever for them to get in the same page, and when that happens, the past lives stuff and the villains being villains stuff comes kicking in, and when the villains are gone, they separate... And only get together again near the very end. Please, make it stop ;-;

I think what really frustrates me is that something I really value is absent from a drama where the leads have excellent chemistry. Take something like King the Land, for instance. The leads there have inferior chemistry [imo] and there is virtually no plot in that drama, but I can see myself rewatching it because there are so much time dedicated to the leads being in love with each other. I want to see leads date, be cute together, call each other girlfriend/boyfriend, confessing, do things for each other, etc.

So, in a sense, it may be a me problem [a problem with my expectations] rather than a problem with the drama itself.

Anyways, the ML's not-brother telling his mom that being her son was a curse to him right before dying was the biggest "holy shit" moment here. I am not a mom, but ouchie!

I hope the male mermaid finds new love [not the FL!!!] and sticks around. Maybe Shin Hey-sun's character, since she has not done much other than pine for the ML and be rude to the FL so far. She is already somewhat connected to mermaid stuff because of her work, also.

I thought the ML was quite unlikable, and I did not understand why the FL had a massive personality change halfway through. Also, it is allegedly a romance but the leads are only together during 0.0001% of the story. It is not the worst I have watched, but it got close.

On episode 6 and I love how much the leads are into each other. They are so cute. ;-; Sim Cheong is the cutest FL I have seen in a drama, alongside Zhi from Hidden Love. The ML is always doing his best not to care about and for the FL, but he always fails. Losing his memories did not matter at all, because he just fell for her in record speed again.

With that being said, this is episode 6 of 20 and there are so many ill-intentioned characters all around, that I am dreading future events as much as I am enjoying the romance between the leads. The stepmother and the smelly serial killer are the worst [please go back to the Reply series, thank you], but there is also Shin Hye-Sun's character and the ML's "friend" who are shady as hell also.

Also, Cheong said she cannot be splashed with water [so, we know for a fact it will 100% happen] and that she will not be able to see the first snow again [so, her stay in Seoul is likely not going to last]... I am dreading so much. I am tired, boss. Let me just enjoy the cuteness pleaaaaaaaaaaaase.

Agreed. Whenever that guy shows up in a drama, I know my blood pressure will rise. He was actually not at his worst here, surprisingly.

The main couple had abysmal dogshit chemistry after that cute scene in the supermarket early on ;-; I was really never sold on the single mom being in love with the guy. She certainly did not show that love. The main guy was a little boring, but at least he was not a childish screeching demon like the ML in Modern Farmer.

The two secondary couples were chaotic but fun, though. The comedy was my kind of comedy so I found myself coughing from laughing so much quite a few times. Sorry, I watched this a few weeks ago and I already forgot all the names.

I wish there was a little bit more romance, but it is what it is. I really liked the leads and some of the supporting fellas. The scene where the FL keeps hugging her mother's ghost, forcing herself to be possessed by her mother in order to remember what really happened in the past was heartbreaking.

Happiness (2021). The couple is really cute, but their romance is not really the focus.

Did you drop it? I finished it a few months back and it was not worth it at all.

The FL's personality goes from awkward, cowardly and very endearing to infuriating in the second half. That coupled with the ML being a jerk and the leads not really being together for 99.99% of the story is why I gave this a 2 out of 10.

Also, what is with the ML's hair? That haircut does not match dudes with very sharp facial features who look 30 years old+. The ML is extremely, EXTREMELY attractive in Oh My Venus, yet he looks like dried chewed gum here.

I really enjoyed this, but I wish Haru was more three dimensional. His entire character is all about obsessing over Dan Oh. Also, I wish the fake FL grew some balls and hooked up with the fake 2ML instead of settling with the fake ML.

The bonding of the leads in episode 2 was so cute and heartwarming, and then they hit me with amnesia on the beginning of episode 3?! I am tired, boss. Someone please put me into a coma.

To be fair, I knew something would happen when the leads all but fell in love with each other in the second episode. I hope the scammer [ML] remembers Ding-Dong [FL] soon.

I agree with your rant. Whenever I rewatch this drama, the stopping point is right after Seo-Ha learns that Ji-Eum is his reincarnated noona. The final two episodes do not exist to me lmao. My headcanon is that Ji-Eum lives her 19th life happily with Seo-Ha, her 18th life family and her 17th life niece. When she finally dies, she is reincarnated once more, but without any memories.

This would be my favorite drama if not for the 1st life bullshit and that annoying guy with the shaman bells. Bam Ji-Eum losing her memories was a mistake, imo. I would have preferred her to live her entire 19th life alongside Seo-Ha, her 18th life family and her 17th life niece. Then, when she eventually died in her 19th life, she would reincarnate having forgotten her 19 past lives.

With that said, I have watched from episode 1 up to a little bit after Seo-ha learns that Bam Ji-Eum is his reincarnated crush/noona three times already. Like 30 but 17 [also featuring Shin Hye-Sun], this is a comfort drama to me.

On episode 12 and all I can think is "I am tired, boss". FL's brother drains my energy and raises my blood pressure simultaneously. I need a break.

Midway through episode 9, and the ML and FL really do deserve each other. Two little assholes cut from the same cloth. The ML gave no shits about his gf dying [which was not his fault, but still] and the FL was literally daydreaming and obsessing over the ML while still making dating plans with the annoying hyperactive cop.

Why do I find questionable leads so compelling, [so long as both leads are questionable]? The literal demon and the morally ambiguous cop in Judge from Hell, the holier than thou cop couple [who were always one step away from entering "police brutality" territory] in Happiness and now the burn victim twins in Smile Has Left Your Eyes. Why???

They die, anyways, so it is not like they would have spent a lifetime together as a sister/brother couple. Personally, I think they should have kept them as siblings.
