but i don't think they will tell the story about the curse at the ending of webtoon, maybe we will see
as long as the characters stay true to the webtoon, we are good.
The FL in the webtoon is incredibly sweet, easily likable and a very very strong woman. Problem is that typical Kdrama FL's are loudmouthed and abusive, i.e supposed "modern independent women". really hope they don't turn the sweet FL in the webtoon into a typical kdrama FL and stick to what the author wrote.
What the heck was this! Okay so I been watching all of Zi Huan's dramas. And I was about to not watching because…
The writers did a bad job of setting up the whole plot.
For 30+ episodes, FL and 2ML have been having their own brand of fun and games. The FL never once gave a a thought of how her interactions with 2ML are affecting the ML. In fact, she and her family would constantly thrust 2ML in ML's face.
Now, when FL thinks ML is meeting the 2FL, she gets all in their faces. That's just duplicity at that point & they were not doing anything remotely similar to what FL was doing with 2ML.
Great varied characters, great character development and most importantly interactions and relationships between characters are done very well.
the 2 leads carried the show and supporting cast was fantastic. The bad guy for a change was very smart and vicious.
Woo Jin character stole the show probably because of how he is written. they forged their friendship while beating each other in the ring. It was a great set up. Once they become friends, they never look back, have a moment of doubt or second guess each other. They just went all in.
Having just one partner or having a deep romantic bond with just one person is nothing wrong.... It's probably…
I want variety.
When a new Cdrama starts, for the most part, you already know how the ML will be because almost every Cdrama has same template for the ML.
a cheating ML, a cheating FL etc etc are acceptable as long as the story line demands it and drama is interesting.
The point I was making though was the ML should have some quality of a man, especially in drama with romance as central plot. I think most women underestimate what boys go through at puberty, through their teens and early adulthood. It is as shocking as what girls go through. The idea of a drama showing a grown straight man never having been interested in women is as believable as a grown healthy woman being shown as never having a period.
My limited point regarding that has been over-analyzed and extrapolated into things I have never said. but hey....as long as you are having fun ;)
I’m glad you surround yourself with pure mature males.
You are missing the point,
It is about dramas not showing ML interactions with other women than the FL.
Just look at this drama as example. How many men does FL have interactions with, the kind of interactions she has and the quality of her relationships with these men.
Now, just compare it with ML.
Even in dramas where ML may have had the very rare ex-gf, you never see these interactions.
in this one, the FL is practically drooling over a man. In fact she is shown having orgasms when being near the guy. Wonder if you would clasify her as pervert? I would say that is another interesting take on a Cdrama FL. Would have loved if a single Cdrama would portray a ML as they portrayed the FL in this one.
In this one the FL and her bestie have a pretty wild hobby. They were perverts and creeps but it was damn funny and another interesting take on FL's. Pretty sure if the ML had similar hobby with FL's little sister, it would have been hilarious and interesting as well...but we never see ML's doing something that crazy or fun.
Having just one partner or having a deep romantic bond with just one person is nothing wrong.... It's probably…
None of these dramas have the ML having a friendly drink, dinner and casual buddy type activities with his female friends. in fact, I don't remember ML having a drink, dinner and movie catch up with his female friends in any of these dramas. I could be wrong and you can post if it happened.
That's what I mean by a relationship. We are told the ML is friends with this girl but we are never shown the friendship and whatever we are shown, there are pretty hard lines drawn by ML. The ML is only friends with these women. The FL on other hand is besties with men in her life.
I’m glad you surround yourself with pure mature males.
Let me put it this way.
Men think about sex multiple times an hour. That's pretty much what I can post without being too explicit.
The dramas do not need to portray reality but when every ML's in every Cdrama is basically same where in they are not showing any attraction of any females except FL, then you have a characterization issue.
I’m glad you surround yourself with pure mature males.
Like men.
Any one who has ever interacted with men, from when they puberty to their teenage years to their early adulthood etc would immediately know the Cdrama ML's are fake men.
If they had some variety mixed with these men who seem pure, that would have changed my opinion.
Can you recall one ML in Cdrama history who would look at a women and has sexual attraction? FL's don't have these kind of characterization issues. They do appreciate men with good looks and even show some kind of attraction to hot men. The ML's in cdramas never are shown looking at women and appreciating them.
Having just one partner or having a deep romantic bond with just one person is nothing wrong.... It's probably…
we are discussing Cdramas. but I will check the list. My limited experience with Japanese dramas is very good. Characters are diverse enough to keep your interest.
Having just one partner or having a deep romantic bond with just one person is nothing wrong.... It's probably…
it's basically the story of every Cdrama ML.
They all have traumas or some disease that somehow affect their interactions with opposite sex. The FL's though, never seem to have these kinds of issues in Cdramas.
When you watch enough dramas, it becomes very clear why they have ML with these kinds of unbelievable story lines....it's intentional. They want the ML devoid of any kind of deep relationship with any woman other than the FL. To achieve that, these dramas invent all kinds of BS.
Having just one partner or having a deep romantic bond with just one person is nothing wrong.... It's probably…
ok, here is a challenge.
name dramas where the ML had 2 girls as besties and he would go on dinners with them and have a casual friendly relationship with them...like the only FL has in this drama. If you can't find 2 female besties, why not show a drama with 1 female bestie with similar kind of casual, easy and friendly relationship that FL has in this drama with her besties.
I’m glad you surround yourself with pure mature males.
Agree with some of your points but my main contention was pretty much in the first post I made.
that the ML's characterization in Cdramas needs lot of work. Right now the ML's are not portrayed right in the drama as a viwer, these men are confusing to comprehend, simply because they don't behave like men.
The FL in the webtoon is incredibly sweet, easily likable and a very very strong woman.
Problem is that typical Kdrama FL's are loudmouthed and abusive, i.e supposed "modern independent women". really hope they don't turn the sweet FL in the webtoon into a typical kdrama FL and stick to what the author wrote.
I really hope they don't screw this up like they did the other webtoon last year.
She would find new ways to interact with him.
Anyway, it's just writers being lazy. the FL character is inconsistent and does not make sense.
For 30+ episodes, FL and 2ML have been having their own brand of fun and games.
The FL never once gave a a thought of how her interactions with 2ML are affecting the ML. In fact, she and her family would constantly thrust 2ML in ML's face.

no romance was a bonus.

If it indeed is the case, that's a refreshing take.
usually the Cdrama ML's all feel same and boring.
It is about dramas not showing ML interactions with other women than the FL.
Just look at this drama as example.
How many men does FL have interactions with, the kind of interactions she has and the quality of her relationships with these men.
Now, just compare it with ML.
Even in dramas where ML may have had the very rare ex-gf, you never see these interactions.
Love and peace to you too.
If a man or woman being attracted to opposite sex makes them perverts and creeps, then you are looking at most of the world as same.
There are literally dozens of Cdramas where women including the FL look at hot men and swoon. Not sure if you would call them creepy/perverts.
Don't confuse sexual attraction to sexualization.
