I'm only 6 episodes in but this drama is so lovely. When I think of what I want from a kdrama this has everything I look for. These two leads have insane chemistry. No wonder they were dating in real life. What a shame he had to do his military service right after!
Did anyone else see the shade that the Taiwanese web drama ‘Because Of You 2020’ posted on their Instagram account? It said something along the lines of “don’t worry our characters are rich so they don’t have to buy their own salt.” - how dare they!? I was Reading that crying and laughing at the same time.
I don't love this drama, but I keep watching because the main character is such a refreshing one. I feel like we have so many dramas about characters pursuing their dreams, but we have so few about characters that don't know what their dreams are. And I feel like that's a much more common feeling than we'd all expect. And so I like that this drama is making people like me feel a little less alone.
is it a happy ending ? satisfying as well? mark as spoiler thanks in advance
It’s a drama that’s really slow to get subs, so I have avoided the final 2 episodes until they are subbed. But it’s very much a classic romantic kdrama at its core so I’d assume a happy ending. But I don’t know for certain.
I've watched episode 9 after months and months of staying on episode 7. I'm gonna consider this drama as completed now. I know the ending and I really don't need to see it to experience it. Words can not describe how stunningly beautiful this drama is, it just doesn't have my type of ending.
So let me get this straight, at the moment it looks like Kim Chung Ah and Joon Hwi will go their separate ways at the end, even though their relationship is the main reason I'm going to be able to complete this drama. AND...haha....AND Kim Seol Ah is going to choose to end up with a guy who disrespect and cheated on her because he hung around her and complained for long enough. And she's choosing that guy over her first ever friend, best friend, who made her heart flutter for the first time and made her realise she can actually fall in love...because that makes so much sense. it's so ridiculous.
He's making his acting debut this summer in a webtoon as a male lead who steps out of a manhwa into the real world - Extraordinary You vibes - yes please
I’ve caught up with the entirety of Forest in 2 days knowing the last 2 episode would be out today and I catch up to only find its one of those kdramas that takes ages to be subbed. I have tears running down my face and I NEED TO SEE HOW IT ENDS NOW!
Did anyone else crack up in episode 18 when that shareholder in that tech company was listening to a tape on how to use a smartphone in your sixties. Because I'm crying with laughter, so random.
I love that she was in Love With Flaws, skipped a drama and then got another roll in the drama that took Love With Flaws time slot. She never stops! I’ll take any Kim Seul Gi I can get, so hurry up Find Me In Your Memory!!!
I’m watching this drama for 2 reasons now. 1. Im Joo Hwan - his acting is so interesting to watch. The way he plays this serial killer is different from anything I’ve seen before. I saw him in oh my ghost and in uncontrollably fond but I was never the biggest fan of the characters he played, but in this drama whenever he’s on screen I just can’t take my eyes off of him. I don’t like his character but I do enjoy watching him. 2. The directing - from the first episode I couldn’t believe my eyes how beautiful this drama is, and it keeps on getting better and better. Every episode I find myself gasping at how beautifully they’ve shot a certain scene. I seriously can’t wait for this director to find someone who can write on the same level that he directs at.
The Game: Towards Zero doesn't have the best script, there are so many plot holes, BUT I will not hear a bad word about the direction and cinematography, it's honestly stunning! I keep catching my breath at how beautiful every shot is, so I can't wait to see what Jang Joon Ho will produce with a writer in his level.
I'm considering dropping this drama, just because I've gotten behind and think it's a bit too dark to marathon to catch up. To be clear I was enjoying it it's just not looking like its going to be one of my favorites. I'm on episode 12/32, for those who are still watching it, should I keep going or should I drop it, what have the most recent episodes been like?
Apparently Romance dramas just arent big ratings hits in Korea anymore, so they are making a lot less, which means a lot less chances for good heart fluttering dramas to be made. Like if you look at upcoming dramas the number of rom coms is so low its crazy and the number of other genre dramas that are tagged with romance is also so low. Its sad, they really are catching up with the US, romantic TV shows just don't appeal to large audiences anymore globally apparently
If you tap it the rating is actually 8.8 - so 6.8 must be a glitch. I thought some crazy news had come out about this drama and everyone was all the sudden hating on it. I actually gasped because its the best first 2 episodes of a GMMTV drama I’ve ever seen
I'm going to admit that episodes 55 to 75 were really dull for me - Kang Shi Wols now regular appearances being the only thing I completely enjoyed and looked forward to in those 20 episodes. But episode 76 it's like the writer woke up and realised everything we enjoyed in the first 55 episodes and finally gave that stuff back to us. We've got back Kim Seol Ah and Moon Tae Rang back to being in love with each other rather than being cold and stabdoff-ish and having zero interactions and just ignoring one another. We also have my faves Joon Hwi and Chung Ah back to being so awkward and adorable that I squeal when they're on screen AGAIN. The past 20 episodes their scenes had bored and depressed me but now I'm grinning ear to ear again.
Episodes 1-3 were enjoyable, I liked it, but 4 & 5 were so confusing- I'm still not really sure what happened in either of them - also there were so many inconsistencies from episode to episode - it was like they expected you to forget important plot moments. I'm not even annoyed because I'm mostly just confused. The 2 leads acting was the only good and believable aspect of this show throughout. Never heard of either of them but will look out for them in the future!
AND...haha....AND
