I need to watch the first one to understand the second one?
There's a prequel called Tang Dynasty Tour. I've never watched it so I'm not sure how the story relates to Whimsical Return. But I was told it's not necessary to watch the prequel before this because they are standalone stories.
when he fell in river.I thought finally one problem settled,then Dae hoon jumped, so...both are fine (as per drama…
As annoying as he is, Cricket's probably not going anywhere. He's likely gonna last till the end. I wonder if he'll end up offering Kim a deal in the end to bring Kim to his side though.
These cliffhangers are a huge torture 😫😫 Also absolutely annoyed with Mole Cricket going after Kim. I know Min Ji's kidnapping is none of his business and he doesn't need to go easy on Kim because of that because he only cares about Kim, but an innocent girl is in danger. Glad that at least Sang A and laundromat guy hesitated. I hope they'll at least help Kim. Mole Cricket doesn't seem to have been informed about Min Ji and he'll only find out in Ep5, but ugh, he's seriously getting on my nerves. Also hope Hye Ri gets all the karma she deserves in the end, though I doubt it.
Finally finished Ep1 and I'm so mad right now. Min Ji better be alive!!!!! I also wonder if Sang A is actually some secret agent sent to keep an eye on Kim though....
Just done watching Ep16 and moving on to Ep17. I honestly can't stand FL's best friend Jing Jing and her boyfriend Lu Ze. Both of them just seem to be the same type of people.
Jing Jing goes to Qian Fei's workplace to cause a scene, thinking she's doing Qian Fei a favor? Or does she actually just wants to play justice hero? Doesn't she realize she could also cost Qian Fei her job and position in the team? So who exactly is she causing a scene for?
And then comes Lu Ze, another one who's just created a scene at the same building upstairs, trying to guilt trip Qian Fei now, making his gf seem like a saint. Yea, Jing Jing was willing to help QF return the money to WRH, which is something a friend would be really grateful for. But painting it as some selfless move (including causing a scene) just because she didn't care about her reputation and "stood up" for Qian Fei? Um, what about Qian Fei's reputation? Did anyone care to think about that? And Lu Ze even has the nerve to turn it around and question what QF has done for Jing Jing.
Seriously, this couple is just unbelievable.
I also hate how Qian Fei just admitted she came up with the proposal thing without further adding that she didn't know it would affect Lu Ze's company. She just said "yea I did it" like????
On Ep14 and I really hope Da Jun and Dang Yu don't end up together, although I know it's a common trope for them to be a couple in the end. Ugh. I despise when dramas like depicting this stalker relentless courting behavior as romantic. Just couldn't stand all of Da Jun's scenes. His parents are also unbearable, especially his mother.
I think episodes 1 & 2 were a bit choppy because they cut out as many scenes with the FL’s ex as possible…
The choppy bits were part of the reason, but for me it was more about the way FL and ML were introduced. Like their personalities and perspectives on life. I'm not saying it was bad, it just wasn't to my taste. For example I didn't like the way they handled certain situations or the way they treated the other person.
But as I learned more about them, I felt that they weren't so bad and I hope to understand them better. :D
I get what you mean. I felt uncomfortable with the thought of the ex -girlfriend living in the same apartment…
Yea, I was glad she left too, but honestly, I thought she was also actually quite fun to have around for that short time because her creating chaos meant more chances for the leads to grow closer to each other. 😆
I got a little annoyed with her, but she actually wasn't that bad. At least she was genuinely apologetic when she accidentally soaked the house. It's not like she was denying it like a spoiled brat or acted entitled. ML lashing out on her calling her stupid was really uncalled for. I'd dump his a$$ too if he were my boyfriend. LOL
Honestly, the first two episodes were quite iffy for me because of the four characters' actions and choices. It was understandable and I'm not saying it's wrong to want what FL initially wanted, but ngl, I was irked by it especially knowing how big of a jerk her ex was. ML's ex also was getting on my nerves, though I wouldn't say ML was faultless either. I guess they just weren't meant to be because they seemed to be on different frequencies. At least his ex wasn't terrible like FL's ex.
But once I got to Ep3, things took a better turn. The FL was prioritizing herself more and knew where to draw the line. She was no pushover even though she's really sweet. Both FL and ML's exes were out of their lives and we got to learn more about the leads, which was nice. It honestly became so much more enjoyable. Looking forward to seeing FL get back on her feet and build her career.
So...what I understood from epi 12..1. Seori and Danshim swapped soul during car accident2.Seori went back,became…
Omg this makes so much sense! I was watching it trying to figure out how it happened thinking it was reincarnation coz that's what the story hinted all along especially with Segye. But if what happened between Seori and Danshim was just soul swapping and no reincarnation, then it actually makes more sense to me.
Of course, Seori could have still been a reincarnation of Danshim, but their timelines intersected, while it should've been moving in separate parallel lines like the crown prince and Segye's life, or the king and Mundo's life.
This drama is seriously SO GOOD. Haven't been feeling most romance k-dramas this year and was only interested in a few. And out of the ones I've watched so far, this sits at the top of my list. Also, Se Gye might seem like the domineering type at first, but he's so not the typical annoying type. In fact, I don't think he's even that domineering at all. Perhaps more...assertive? I also think it's coz Seo Ri doesn't like being dominated, and Se Gye has just fallen so bad for her that he listens to her all the time. I really love both Seo Ri and Se Gye's personalities. They're both actually quite similar.
The ending of Ep10 really hurts. I hope we won't have to suffer in Ep11 😫😫😫

All the couples aside from the two main leads in this show are getting more and more unbearable. 😩
But as I learned more about them, I felt that they weren't so bad and I hope to understand them better. :D
