ep14. close but yet so far. mu dan once gave consort shu some interesting advice abt pretending to be drunk or asleep to declare or elicit confession. So many drama romances only kick into gear after excessive drinking or viewing of the loved one napping. Things could be said...
poor jiangyang didnt even pretend and still no success! maybe things are changing under the surface.
That was pretty noble of jiangyang to forgive mu dan's 'brother' for meddling -- I guess life in extended families requires forbearance that I would find difficult to produce.
Kim Min Ju is young. She was the school presidents daughter in undercover highschool. Hope it goes well. Wish them both luck, even if the pairing doesnt work out.
out 0f 24 eps, the midpoint is 12...we should see something positive then? But that is the 16 ep kdrama formula.
However so far in cdrama I am seeing more of a division into thirds, where the first rapprochement is at the first third and the real intimacy starts at 2nd third...so that would be at 8 and 16...
Although cdrama is much more nervewracking, I think we can likewise in romance drama like this still predict a happy ending.
But my heart is really breaking right now. As intended, I suspect.
I just finished episode 6. when does it get better? All im seeing is the FL getting abused left and right. This…
Dont worry. This is so much better. soon she will b e protected as much as is possible in a world where a woman alone or outstanding is constantly threatened. I like the realism and the Cary Grant romance. wait for the sweetness.
Why do you find her irritating? Is it bcs of her real life character or in the drama?
A lot of criticism of female actors when the problem is how female roles are written in kdrama (passive, self-obstructing etc etc). My feeling is that the SK female actors do their best in an extremely difficult social situation, but the money and the older fans in SK are a bit stuck-in-the-mud.
This show makes fun of the reasons why women like kdrama -- a place to be silly, girlish, dress in pretty clothes and escape the harsher realities of dating. Even tho in RL most of us dont play girlish at all. If you cant laugh at yourself then this isnt for you?
I love this review. I dont read other people's until I get mine done, and if I had read yours I might not have written anything at all! I really like the long reviews other people write. In contrast I really try hard to write shortish reviews, but I just couldnt with this show. Respect for your skill at long form.
i see people talk about how the last 2 eps were written very well etcim on episode 10 and how the story of Ro-Sa…
Not about 'friendship'. Rosa and Sang-wol were in love, real hearts and flowers love. The preface to her book of poems love. I thought it was pretty daring but nice for pride month..
Think the show was fantastic. Found out that the Korean title was Mi Ji's/Yet unwritten (play on Mi Ji's name) Seoul and it made sense for me of some of the plot.
I thought Our Unwritten Seoul as a title was pretty good as it fronted the poet and her dyslexic love, and alluded to in English, writing yr own story etc. But it flattened out Miji's and Hosu' centrality.
I liked Bo-Young'd strength as Mirae but unless you can focus on MiJi's struggle with the idea of Seoul, the ending for Mirae and Sejin seems truncated. Why else were the stories of the poet's love and the mom's for her husband brought up near the end? Sweeteners to set the mood, I thunk.
Lots of pairs but empathy was Miji's theme alone. I liked Mirae and Sejin too and agree that they could carry a spinoff.
This is growing on me. The FL hopefully has stopped Emma-ing around (enough with the Jane Austen tropes!). Taecyeon is starting to seem more attractive (cute? hot?) -- he tries it on for a second night but isnt bothersome abt her refusal. It's overall pretty to watch, relatively funny and gives me something to see midweek-ish.

The intro summary is a little confused -- it didnt help me to remeber who lian zhou was when the show started.
