Zhi He just doesn't communicate well at all! I guess you could almost say the same for Da Shu, but at this point I feel like if he spoke up for himself that she'd just smash him down. I don't understand her or her motivations at all. She supposedly loves Da Shu, but she gives him ZERO indication that she still has feelings for him. Instead she stomps all over his feelings - crushing him little by little. I don't even like her anymore. She's just angry with him all the time and all he does is try to please her. What does she *want* from him?
To me his smile looks exactly like Ji Chang Wook. And both of them are my fav. And his voice sounds like Park…
OH! I think you nailed it! It's something about the way he speaks and moves his mouth that was triggering my feeling, and when you said JCW, I was like 'BINGO! That's it!" Thank you!! Now I can fully concentrate when I watch Wok of Love instead of racking my brain trying to figure this out. LOL!! :)
As much as I loved this show in the beginning, I'm just going to add a +1 to your review and just say that I agree with just about everything you've said here. I think it would have been a great shorter length drama - like 10 episodes or so. Thanks for saving me the trouble of writing a review, because this one is pretty spot on perfect!
I don't think so. I don't find Rain attractive at all, but this guy is very nice looking. I feel like maybe a cross between Park Seo Joon and someone else?
As much as I want to love this drama, something feels "off" with the directing? I think the writing is great,…
I think I agree with you on this. There's just something a bit...'off', but I can't really put my finger on it yet. I don't dislike the show, but something keeps me from loving it even when there are so many elements in it that I *do* like.
I swear if MH sways her back to him in this last episode just because he told her he liked her at the end of ep 15, I'm going to flip out on this show when I review it. LOL!
Except that Min Ho has been consistent all along. He's always been self-centered. He only treated Bo Young well when he decided HE liked HER. Dr. Ye has been consistent in that he has treated Bo Young with respect and kindness from day one. When Min Ho didn't get what he wanted....he was in character, acting like a spoiled child because he didn't get his way. He blames BO YOUNG for his feelings. She thought that they were friends and treated him as a friend. I don't think the writer decimated him at all. When has Min Ho ever thought about anyone other than his own feelings? He was nice to her for about one episode because he suddenly realized he liked her...and still, it was all about his feelings.
While I can kind of agree that Dr. Ye has been a bit on the bland side, he's still a MUCH better choice for Bo…
I think the reason I say that I can 'kind of agree' about the blandness is only because they didn't devote as much screen-time to showing us his personality outside his relating to BY -he has been very private about himself in front of his co-workers in that he hasn't revealed much about his personal life. He hasn't really had very much back-story (with the exception of the failed workplace romance, and the injury that killed his baseball dreams) while pretty much every other character has had something shown about their private life and motivations. Absolutely he has shown his character through his actions, though, which is why I have been on his side for BY from the get go. But we don't know much else about him, whereas MH has been given all this history on screen, even as far as showing his family life.
Lee Joon Hyuk was *so hilarious* in these last two episodes! I never would have thought he could do comedy so…
Was it when he was being sooooo obvious? LOL! "I carefully controlled my emotions" pfffft! Seriously, how have none of their co-workers caught on yet??
I'm still MH x BY! Yes, he is a brat, but maybe having someone like BY can help him change. Dr. YE is just...bland.…
While I can kind of agree that Dr. Ye has been a bit on the bland side, he's still a MUCH better choice for Bo Young. He has been mature, caring, observant, and responsive. Min Ho has been callous, rude, obnoxious, and selfish. "Ain't nobody got time for that!" As Kiryuu put it - she needs (and deserves) a partner, not a project." Dr. Ye has proven himself to be a man, while Min Ho is still behaving like a child.
Ok, I didn't make it past episode 2 because it didn't have the same tone as the first one. But I put it on hold and thought "I'll wait and see what other viewers say." .....and 3 weeks after the ending there isn't a SINGLE review? Really? I feel like that says something since most of the time people can't even wait until a show is complete before they want to fire off a review. (But somehow it's coming in at an 8.3? This doesn't compute! LOL)
Since they kissed in episode 12, he's got to be endgame right? The female lead almost *never* kisses anyone but the male lead. Sorry Min Ho shippers....I'm Ye-Line and hoping it stays that way. (MH is cute and all, but he's been pretty awful to BY until he finally realized he liked her. I think he missed his chance.)
Most of the time, yes, he just fed them some information and let their own bad behavior do its work. He caught them in their own trap. So you have to wonder...is that how the title came about? :) I don't think he was so bad for the most part. The other people were the ones doing wrong usually, so they did sort of deserve what they got (most of the time). I think it backfired with Seol - she didn't deserve a stalker or the crazy drunk, but she wasn't a bad person, taking advantage of others either. He just misunderstood her at first.
I tried explaining what was happening to my husband and it just sounded absurd.
