A bittersweet epic. Loved it. This is the story of a woman who worked for what she wanted, and got it. She wasn't afraid to be a bit of a bitch either.
The drama itself was ok but the ending was terrible. Might as well tell you now...so you don't waste your time.…
OMG. I'm literally at the beginning of the last episode and thought that any possible spoilers I saw would be.... I don't know... irrelevant? I WAS WRONG
I WAS REALLY WRONG
I can't resist sharing that my favourite Asian food is ddeokbokki. God. I've been having a huge craving for it recently. Especially when it has the nommy little fishcakes in it ;-;
I really do mean to give this a go, as my last attempt was when it was first airing. I watched the first 5 minutes…
Egh, I've actually never watched the Korean version... I don't even want to give that one a chance, as mean as it sounds. Not a huge fan of Minho, and Sulli looks very feminine. Maybe when I'm feeling really desperate for the Hana Kimi story.... hehe. I think I might actually just suck it up and watch this version.
I watched this ages ago, why is this not on my list!? Either way, this was kind of a strange movie from what I remember- which isn't very much. Is that a testament to the quality of this movie? *shrug*
Saw it by coincidence on Netflix, and thoroughly enjoyed it. It lacks a huge impact like a psychological thriller would have, but it's still a good movie for some gore and chills. The characters are also interesting and rather likable. Shows just how screwed up some people can be and the circumstances that got them there, and with subtlety rather than over the top moral pushing. Certainly worth watching.
I find it hard to focus on this drama because of how inexplicably annoying the female lead is (she was fine in…
I ADORED them together in 'Secret' as well! I actually don't think I've seen the female lead in anything else, but I was really surprised at how much better she was in Secret. And yeah, I like the plot of this drama, but there are a lot of ridiculous and nonsensical moments. I'm really baffled at how highly rated it is. I was starting to feel alone in my distaste.
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO. I'M SO PISSED RIGHT NOW! I don't agree with Trash and Na Jung. I think they were much much better in a sibling/sibling relationship. I wish they'd just moved on with good memories and all that jazz. I mean, granted, they never even gave Chil Bong and Na Jung enough scenes together to actually have any chemistry, but jesus christ.
I don't think I liked this drama. Besides- the only thing that made Chil Bong have any chance at all to be the husband was the editing, and the inherent expectation coming from Reply 1997 and other dramas that the young, attractive one gets the girl. Na Jung never even acted like she liked him, and Chil Bong barely had any scenes. He was really just a pitiful character; they forgot about his birthday, and after that they didn't even call him to apologize or wish him a happy brithday- they just bragged to other people about how the celebrity said their names.
This unfairness really makes me think that this drama wasn't nearly as good as Reply 1997.
I mean, I looked past the fact that they seemed to completely forget about Sook Sook for most of the drama.
I looked past the EXTREMELY cheesy, ridiculous explanation for the father being played by the same actor.
I looked past so many flaws and saw the cute side romances, the nostalgia, the hilariousness, and the moments of good writing.
But the main romance... just doesn't do it for me. I'm really not okay with it. And I don't think I can look past it. I may not give this drama a very good rating at all.
Egh. I could write a review, but I'm lazy, so all I'll say is; the beginning of the drama was fairly good, and the entire drama was charming. But it just sort of lacked any direction as to what was happening in the drama. I felt like the ending of the drama was very lackluster. Maybe it's just my opinion, though. I also really liked the drama as a whole anyway.
I WAS REALLY WRONG
(I won last time though, so just ignore this)
Some...how...???
Alas, my dreams couldn't be.
