I'm also interested to see your imaginary cast also :)
Well I really took it serious lol I imagined more badass-fierce MCs in general. I had some variations, and I was never so sure about Yona but Woo Do Hwan or Jang Ki Young as Hak would be satisfying for me, lately I thought Son Kang could be good as well, or Ro Woon but not sure about his acting level, I think he's evolving tho~ And for Yona, I think a new face could be great, recently Go Min Si, Kim Seol Hyun caught my eye.
Oh my god!! This was what I was thinking ever since I watched&read Akatsuki no Yona! Thank you so much for this article! I so wish this to become true, they even have Korean names ready to go lol I had a different imaginary cast for the main couple but I quite like most of your cast so it was fun to see your cast!
This and Renai Mangaka (a gem btw) are making me watch ongoing Japanese dramas which is really rare for me. I completely agree, their acting is really good I feel like they are actual people. Koichi is too cute I mean a weirdo kinda cute but I just love awkward characters lol I love the chemistry, like they just smile at each other and I am heart eyes already but sometimes I find myself wanting to slap some sense in both of them lol "PLEASE DON'T! PLEASE DO!" this is what I do when I watch it lol Japanese dramas are best at putting the reality as a drama... But I do hope it gets and end like a drama drama (read as happy end lol)
Throughout ep8 I was like... isn't it going a little slow?? So uneventful unlike first episodes. BUT... that -…
I really, really do hope to at least get the half of the episode with some cute couple moments... And I am actually a little salty about their timing for the identity disclosure ~ They don't need any test if you ask me lol I hope the tension won't last long tho :/

Ah yes, I love the epilogues at the ends as well~ I actually really need to see Karibe being in love more but not in a sad way lol Yeah I hope they could catch a break and give us some cute couple time before lol
Guess who dived into the raw ep8 again without any regrets??? Yeah right, this drama is probably the first japanese…
Throughout ep8 I was like... isn't it going a little slow?? So uneventful unlike first episodes. BUT... that - MAJOR SPOILER- KISS AT THE END! I totally didn't except that at all and it was really a good shock and I liked the delivering of it, they looked too cute and also I cannot wait for the upcoming episodes but I needed more of them as a couple I hope we get enough of their awkward-funny-cute moments ^^
Idk why but I was so truly shocked at this news.. I mean I shipped them so much in the drama but never dreamed of a real ship, like... Not that I complain tho I am so so happy for them!! I hope they would be so happy together~~
Throughout every episode, it feels like something will happen but then nothing happens, like at all. No significiant character reveal, development or any connection being formed, or any new interesting happening at all. My expectations were only for a light rom-com level but even so, everything is just so shallow. I also can't stand Geun-Young not saying anything in any situation.. Like editing making her evil, or not doing or saying anything in the reality shootings. I also can't understand the motives of Who Joon and pretty bored about the past life of that three... It really had potential I mean it could have been a fun and enjoyable light rom-com but it keeps getting boring, I am so close to dropping....
Yes! I was disappointed too when it was revealed that it wasn't Aiko :( agree with you that the girl's hair is…
Actually I wasn't annoyed by Ren but the writers making him the reason, if that makes any sense lol Also that woman finding out everything so easily was also a bit annoying :D Thaaank you so much for the preview!! Omg!!!! It really served me ^.^

I want to scream outsiders butt out!!! Lmao .. Right I can't quite get Nikaido, I mean he was so obviously into Aiko so why date with someone else and keep showing interest to Aiko in front of her really... He was about to do something so I wasn't shocked, however I hope Aiko gives a proper respond to it soon or later.. I forgot to mention how furious I was when Ren became the reason of Kinjo identifying Karibe.. I can't feel more sorry or the kid, they gotta stop lol Agree, I hope Ren's mum and Kinjo plot can be wrapped soon and let them have more space to the scenes you mentioned! ;) (Also, seems like I haven't seen a trailer like that -, _ - )

I hope it won't get too messy to the point I am disappointed for the characters tbh :/ I havent quite get the trailerbefore so thanks! About the girl in the drawing tho, they tried to give hints about it was Aiko for so long so maybe there might be more to it? Idk maybe it was to create a shock about she wasn't, which is imo not a positive shock for the viewers tho lol Personally I don't like side characters involving in the story so much... I really want Karibe and Aiko to deepen their connection more than anything so I hope we can get more of that in the upcoming episodes.... And Karibe and Ren relationship to be stronger, Karibe to understand he should be more cautious interacting with a kid etc. We will see I guess.
Spoiler ep6-- Oh no, so it wasn't Aiko who Jun referred as the reason of Karibe being like this? Then my feelings are gone waste lol I was really happy to believe it was Aiko, but the drawing still seems like Aiko cause the other girl (seems like Ren's mom?) have shorter hair back then? I am confused I need ep7 lol even though I didn't even totally get ep6 :D
