Overall, this is a good, slow-paced drama (if you like that kind of thing). I was left with a few questions at then end that just didn’t make sense to me. 1. Why does he lie to her about his mother? 2. Why does she run off at the end? Pointless pieces - the divorcee aunt - just serves NO purpose, somewhat the same with the uncle Missed opportunities - more time on cousins relationship, less time on hospice stories (they just became repetitive Otherwise, this is good story about loss, death and healing.
Just finished, not bad - although, the last 15 minutes of bickering made no sense and just kind of ruined the whole thing. It’s one things to show a realistic relationship where you have fights, but this is ridiculous - to get mad over him not being able to find her phone for her - come on! Just felt like she was unnecessarily picking fights with him for no reason. She couldn’t seem to adjust to him not having his senses anymore - not that we should be surprised, given she never adjusted to her own powers after having them most of her life. I just hate this kind of female character - playing the victim throughout most of the story, never learns from previous actions and just keeps doing the same thing over and over (they give three very specific examples of showing that she misinterprets her visions and yet, she just keeps doing the same thing). The female lead who is terrified of her own shadow, the - lets get in a relationship - but dont’ tell anyone trope, playing the martyr - just hate it! She is more compelling when she is smart and competent and fully engaged in the relationship where they talk to each other and work through whatever is going on (hence, why the ending doesn’t work - its like they just stopped talking each other and started nit-picking about everything) Then there is the mom/parent trope of not wanting to deal with the childhood trauma - ‘I just did it for you’ - no, you did it for yourself. Again, for the most part - not a bad watch -just another example of a kdrama where they screwed up the ending.
Just finished, seen worse, but this is pretty bad. I only plodded through because I just like to finish if I can - but would not recommend. Ridiculously stupid in the beginning, and draggy through the end - just get to the end already! Personal pet-peeves of the extreme height difference (when the FL has to stand on their tippy-toes just to hug the ML - drives me nuts!), bad haircuts and the bad wig at the end - ugh!
Another drama where they were going pretty good until the last two episodes - this is becoming the norm, unfortunately , in Kdramas. Still dont get why they killed Kang in the end - so not necessary and doesn’t actually fit with the story. Rest of its fun to watch if you like mahjang’s
My god, what crap writing. You had a stellar cast and just waisted them all. So sad for SJS’s return to the small screen. Let’s hope his big screen return is much better and I hope whatever he does next (and I hope we don’t have to wait another 4 yrs) is something worthy of his talents.
Have been waiting a long 4 years to see SJS back on the small and large screens this year - just started Doctor Lawyer and have a seen a few press clips - is it just me or does he look worn out? The usual sparkle in his eyes seems to be missing and he just looks worn out/ tired , pale and even a bit out shape (doesn’t seem the same fit/slim guy as normal). And if I am not mistaken - looks like they even dyed his hair (which didn’t help). Don't get me wrong - still love him - was just struck by the marked difference in his look since Terrius
I had been putting off watching this because I knew it was going to be heavy - and it was. But so beautifully done and powerful . Looking forward to season 2.
Why do they write female characters this way? What is so endearing about being so self-centered and stupid. It’s not just that she is naive - its that she is just dumb. I am at episode 7 and I just don’t think I can take any more of her idiocy. And, given reading reviews and comments which indicate an absolute mess of the last 2-3 episodes - probably going to drop this one (which is a rarity for me - I usually stick it out, but I am getting so sick of this type of female characters in kdramas and the bad endings)
Overall this was enjoyable and I would recommend it. As usual, the ending ruined it. I agree with other posters that there should have been more time given to Eun Jung and Sang Soo - this was truly the most interesting couple in the end. Also didn’t like how they ended things with Jae Hoon and Han Joo - this was incredibly disappointing. Also agree on this front about Jae Hoon and his ex - no frickin way! Could not believe they tried to make him the bad guy in that at the end. And, agreed that waaayyy too much time given to the Jon Joo/Beom Soo relationship that becomes very stale and uninteresting after they get together. They did a great job with all the supporting characters and relationships - usually that can become at tangled mess - but it worked here. Also would have liked to have seen more with Eun Jung’s brother and his relationship - this was great character and wanted to know more .
Meh, it was ok. Could have done this in half the time. Story was ok, could have done without all the stupid, slapstick humor, didn’t really add anything. Also could have done without the Catholic Church angle. - as an institution that is just as currupt - kind of hard to buy into a priest from such an institution being the savior of everyone.
The ONLY reason to watch this is for Jang Hyuk’s performance. The rest is just awful - unless you are into an entire show where every other character is horrible and you can’t have any sympathy for any of them. From the psychotic mother to the stupid FL - you just can’t like or have sympathy for ANY of them. I spent 24 episodes basically annoyed and screaming at the TV. I only finished it because I wanted to ultimately see how Jang Hyuk gets his revenge. And while I don’t generally like open endings - this one worked.
I so wanted to enjoy this, mostly because of Rowoon. But the FL just is just so annoying. Why do they write female characters like this. The baby voice, the constant talking, becoming all about the boy. Its all just so annoying. And why do they always pair these couple with such huge height differences - it is so awkward. They literally have her standing on a box in some scenes to make up the difference.
1. Why does he lie to her about his mother?
2. Why does she run off at the end?
