26 year older leads playing high schoolers? ๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ only legit if the school setting will switch fast
The irony of this complaint when you rated Lovely Runner a 10 when Byeon Woo Seok was 32 playing high school for a large part of the drama. Oh, and based on your review, you also preferred the high school era with 33-year-old Hwang In Youp in Family by Choice. ๐ค
I like the casting, but not sure why we need "Hotel del Luna Season 2". Also actors returning from military service choosing Netflix dramas for their comeback hurts. We may not see Lee Do Hyun until 2027 ๐ญ
After watching a lot of masterpiece Dramas my expectation and standard have become very high so I think this is…
People who think light-hearted dramas can't be masterpieces and that a drama must be "serious" to qualify as such seem woefully misguided to me. But they're the ones missing out. With that attitude, I would have passed on Twinkling Watermelon. So I'm not boasting, but I'm happy that I have a much broader idea of what kind of dramas can be truly rewarding.
Most kdramas are starting out low this year. WLGYT started out in the 7s as well and is now the highest rated drama on the site. Takes a while to stabilize. It already went up to 8.0 now.
I'm loving this but I have to say I'm irked with the potential love triangle. I don't dislike love triangles but…
I doubt there will be much of a love triangle, certainly not an annoying one. Youngwoo has already teased that there will be bromance between Gyeonwoo and Jiho, and the relationship chart they released is also clear that Jiho's crush is one-sided.
They've also already shown Jiho to be very popular with the other girls in their class, so he might even get a different love interest (hopefully not the annoying class president though lol)
Just one brief gripe here: why change the memorable name to one that almost made me not watch it? Same for the…
Gyeon Woo and Fairy was just the direct translation of the Korean title. The English title is almost always updated. Especially when the original title includes Korean names.
Great start with a 4.3% rating on tvN. Higher than all of their weekend drama premieres this year. Generally there's less room to grow on Monday-Tuesday, but hopefully it can keep doing well. ๐
Sure, there's a palace and it is indeed haunted. But this is neither a comedy nor a romance drama. It will be darker and have more action. So in the end I don't think it'll feel very similar at all.

(Also I can't wait for the bromance to blossom between Gyeon-woo and Ji-ho)
