I've been thinking of rewatching this drama recently... it's so freaking good <3
Random question tho, how old is Lee Bo Young's character supposed to be in this? I never realized that LJS's character is only 19! (Or maybe I just forgot...) Either way, I knew this was a noona romance, but I think I forgot just how noona romancey it is! Man, and do I love it <3
The romance in this... man... I feel like you wait so long for it that when it finally happens, it's just heart wrecking in the very best possible way <3
Is the sister now Jung Da Bin or the other girl that wants to get close to Noksoo? I don't get which one…
I'm pretty sure it's intentional that we don't know for sure quite yet. Usually kdramas are pretty good at making that we know things that they want us to know ;)
Dramafever says that the main leads name is Jung Hae Dang, but here it says Yoo Jwi Na. Anybody who's watching wanna confirm whether this should be fixed or not?
She's only 28!? Jesus. Wait. SO SHE WAS 18 IN HANA KIMI!?
HANA KIMI WAS 10 YEARS AGO!???????
I... I really need some time to process this. I'm freaking out.
I have to applaud each and every one of these entries, because although I finished all of these (except Goblin. WHOOPS) I totally get where you're coming from on each of them.
Pinocchio was boring as hell. I'd watch a painting of Lee Jong Suk's face dry for 16 hours, so of course I finished it, but I gained nothing from the experience. Oh My Venus... you said you aren't mad at it, and I agree. I wasn't either. It was just extremely bland and uninteresting.
Shut Up Flower Boy Band was watched in 2 days while I was doing other more interesting things. Otherwise I never would have gotten through it.
My only qualms with this are Bride of the Century, which I thought was a fairly fresh and cute drama that surprised me with how good it was, and 'It's Okay, That's Love'.
I think that you should give the latter another try. It loses a little bit of steam in the middle, I'll agree, but it throws some curveballs at you and really hits an emotional depth that you don't see in most popular dramas.The leads are convincing and draw you in, and the entire drama is just so unique. The side stories are a bit 'meh' but I thoroughly believe it's worth finishing.
This is such a weird out-there plot for a K-drama? Sci-fi? I mean, it's Hyun Bin. He could sit still in a room for 16 episodes and I'd watch it. I just have my doubts about this one.
As I'm watching this, I'm thinking; "This is illogical and more than a little cheesy. The acting is mediocre and the pacing is questionable. This overuse of slow-mo and zooms is killing me. I should stop watching this."
But then I keep watching?
Mysterious indeed
HIGH-KEY PISSED that they didn't end it the same way the Chinese one did. This one has really attractive…
The choice to stay with the other prince and the MC dying is all the same, which is good because I actually really like that.
But at the very end, when she's in the modern day again. she regains her memory/realizes what happened back in the day, and then at the museum she sees a modern day version of the King.
It's left open ended, but the fact that she sees him again leaves it with a very hopeful sort of sadness.
Ep 14 was so frustrating with the hidden Saimdang portrait. Like, lady, COULD YOU BE MORE OBVIOUS ABOUT WHERE IT'S HIDDEN!? Argh. I'm still loving this though. Read the entire Wikipedia page on Korean paper earlier. Go figure.
