also please make more in the future, please and thank you

i never realized how much i needed a korean musical drama until now

hmmm I DO INDEED

how's this one so far? worth the watch?

yeji sounds so perfect for this role wow

this show had a promising premise, but fell WAY WAY short. only one character really gets developed (neither of the two leads) and it's riddled with misunderstandings up until the very end. the romance was frustrating to watch. all you want are for the leads to open up to one another or for the fml to be nice and the ml to become more competent, and yet.....

cold male ceo characters are mean sometimes, but usually more dismissive and have a soft spot for the fml. in this, she constantly screams, tears up his work, and throws things at him yikes! i finished hoping things would change, but nope. 12 episodes later and it feels the same as it was in ep 1

i've been wanting to watch this for ages, but how bad is the gore? would somebody be able to like...describe a scene for me? give me an example?

i haven't seen the original yet, but i'm still excited for this one. if it turns out good (fingers crossed) it'll become SO big, i can already see it

i adore sismance so much. seeing women support and love each other is so incredible to watch, rather than the stereotypical woman vs woman thing that so many stories love to have (whether in work or in romance).

age of youth was pretty much my first kdrama and watching them go through thick and thin together was amazing. even though the drama wasn't the best thing ever, it holds a special place in my heart because of their friendship. i wish there were more kdramas with a group of female friends like that :')

so are you saying the plot was underdeveloped or the characters? or are you saying both?

i thought it was a good watch. it's not anything mindblowing, given the short runtime, and don't expect to get good character development or relationships. but for what it was worth, i think it's an enjoyable mini series that has a solid premise. unique story with some good violence. really reminds me of dark hole's atmosphere and storyline. it's a good watch if you have nothing else to watch or in the mood for a little turn-your-brain-off horror.

i miss this show

which one is it?

i mean, you can kinda say that about many other actors, but what makes soohyun stand out so much compared to them? esp not having that many big roles

i'm usually hit or miss on slow burn. how slow does it feel? i'm just slightly worried it'd be too slow, but idk i also love slow sometimes LOL

i haven't started yet, but how is it so far? what is it like (without spoilers ofc) and do you recommend it?

this is definitely the type of drama you should watch if you're more of a story/concept fan than a character fan. the first five episodes are amazing. they're intense, the mystery execution is done well, and the reveals and plot twists are satisfying. ep 2 in particular was easily my fave ep. however, ep 6 kind of makes everything go off the rocker. some things that happen are eyeroll-worthy and some are so unbelievable it's hard to believe it was the same show.

overall it was a fairly solid watch with beautiful cinematography and an addicting story to follow. i loved the concept, but yeah the ending really makes it fall flat. that being said, i still highly recommend watching for the first five eps. they're amazing if you're a fan of this genre.

ugh exactly. i stopped watching "bl" because of how it's just become a fetishized trend now. obviously it was a trend before, but it's REALLY taking off now, esp with korea, and they just mask it by saying it's "representation." i just hate how they say it's representation and then create a whole other sub-genre for it. i don't see the sub-genre "straight love" anywhere lmao. i'll still watch a little here and there (like bad buddy, semantic error, and most jpn ones), but ones like this feel like cream of the crop.

i enjoyed this way more than i thought i ever would. the mystery/crime side of it was quite satisfying and tae seo is an incredible anti-villain(?). props to lee jae kyoon for pulling off such a nuanced and complex character. the romance is sweet as well. pure fluff material. while the comedy is the over-the-top sound effect forced jokes type, i still didn't really mind it. there were still a few parts i laughed at here and there. the best part was easily the found family between the two trios. overall, it's a very solid watch with a good mix between romance, mystery, and comedy (ig?). i'd recommend if you're looking for a fairly lighthearted, yet satisfying drama.

i definitely agree with you on that. it's probably because western "romances" are so much more sexual and fast paced, while asian ones focus on the actual falling in love part which i loveeeee. i certainly love a good romance here and there. i mean, tbh i really love romance too, it just depends on my mood usually. sometimes i'm like "NO ROMANCE PLEASE" and other times i want to watch purely for a romance lol.

but seriously, thank you for being so understanding. when i was rereading my stuff i was like "uh oh, i hope this doesn't sound too aggressive" which is why i added the end bit. you're too nice T^T happy watching!!! i hope we both end up liking this one when it comes out hehe
