I am yet to start this drama - but I saw the movie and loved it. It had a bitter-sweet but realistic ending, though not sure how it will be in this drama. I'm guessing it will be in the same lines and nothing scandalous.

Regarding your comment - not sure how much weightage to give to the current ratings/comments as I find on MDL and otherwise they can be misleading. Further you can never know something unless you try. So while I can't say anything of the drama - I'll definitely recommend the movie: Miss Grany (https://kisskh.at/8614-miss-granny) in case the drama premise is making you doubtful (am assuming this given your original comment). Hope you like the film!

Having seen so many perfect ratings, your review and rating stood out on the homepage. Agree on all of it and it is very much like my own review of the show: https://kisskh.at/profile/omo-omo-omo/review/416738

This line: "Because he really needed someone to kidnap and threaten her in order to treat his wife with decent politeness" - this is where it is all wrong. I shared the same, in comments throughout the time the show aired and in my review - how can all the past neglect/indifference and cold behaviour be forgotten in just a short span of time? Even with the drama logic and no matter how swoon-worthy YYS looks, not biting the bait lol!

Even my favorite part were the second couple - Yuri and Sang U, they probably need to get a drama spin off, I was more interested in their interaction as they had the cute romance and chemistry unlike the leads.

I like how you have articulated the review - I wrote mine as soon as I finished the last episode and reading yours made me realise I missed the points for the FL (Maybe I'll revise it later). Always in search of well written reviews and articles so will save yours too

Love your title - I was also racking my brain to think of a title for my review along the lines of blocked contact, missed calls etc but did not fit - as unfortunately/fortunately I too had picked this call of the drama, when it rang.Upvoted as soon as I read it - genius!

Sorry for the long comment, but just wanted to discuss it with someone who feels the same, and yours and mine have been almost alike - so thought to let it all out XD

All four of them are my favorites - having seen their dramas (and variety shows/songs). Especially Lee Je Hoon and Cha Eun Woo - for reasons beyond their work ;)

Did not know about this show until I saw some reels pop up on Instagram and here I am. But will wait for all the episodes to finish airing before starting. Finland as a place is on my bucket list and so that will be a cherry on top!

Thanks Jeana for making the time read! I know it feels bad that YYS being the great actor he is was also not able to salvage this drama for me. Hoping we have better drama luck in 2025!

Thanks for reading! Wish it could have been longer to have the character and motives better explained. I hear the novel is detailed and it makes more sense, so would give it a try once I find it but unfortunately the drama was not working for me.

Absolutely! there were a few misses for sure but more gems than misses!

Oh is it? That is wonderful ~ this is the first time I am seeing him, so good to know this. He has a bit of vibes like Sung Hoon.

So far - am liking his arc and acting as well. Overall this show is really good till now (Ep 24) and given it is my first daily drama I am loving it but keeping fingers crossed!

No worries - even I did not have Hulu. Am sure we drama-lovers tend to find other ways to watch our fav shows. I know it is not always the right channel but what can we do 🥹

Hope you are liking the show. I have also shared some thoughts in my review: https://kisskh.at/profile/omo-omo-omo/review/395716 - Have a look!

Feel free to reach out to me - it is one of my best dramas so always up for a discussion :)

oh it has been such a long time since I saw this - I had to look up who she was :P since I have seen all seasons and couldn't recollect her.

Not vulgar by any means - just that her bonding with the girls was better. With guys she knew what and how to flaunt the right cards or even without doing anything - pretty privilege of sorts.

Hey! Black Out is currently on Hulu.

Have witness the talent of Lee Jung Eun in so many dramas yet she never fails to amaze me. But what a memorable scene this was - unable to speak yet I was able to understand her words that she shared solely through her anguished, desperate and then happy facial expressions.

And this is when I who does not speak Korean but am able to catch on to some words due to dramas - was able to make out the words even though they were muffled.

This was pure brilliance!

Ep 8 - towards the end, when Kim Hyun Min is in his wheelchair, crossing the bridge and it stops working - my weird ass brain is thinking - OMO! OMO! Sun Jae~yaaa is going to come in now 😂

The silly after-effects of Lovely Runner 🤣

OMO! Thank you so much - I just finished the show and paused it. And came straight to MDL to update. Great thing that I saw the notification and came to your comment ~ did watch the post credit scene and I love it.

This show has Season 2 written all over it ~ really hope it is created and airs soon!

I did say this - I love all three of them as actors - so would love if anyone of them wins.

I love all three of them as actors, means I love them in all respect, especially their talent of acting - given it is what they primarily do. I did not mean YYS is not talented.

He in fact happens to be the first K-actor I got to know amongst all of them, having seen him as a teenage actor in Old Boy. Not sure why it is being interpreted differently by so many - but then everyone is welcome to interpret in the way they want.

Loved how the film had the same two actors from the show No Gain No Love - Lee Sang Yi and Lee Yoo Jin, both as love interests for our FL.

I was like what in the Kang Ha Jun effect is this! 😂😂😂Was Nam Ja Yeon / Yeon Bo Ra writing the novel that's the inspiration behind this film too? Lol 😂

I use incognito (desktop) or the app. It is a wishlist feature and asking for MDL :)

Hey Hey! Doing Well, Binging on dramas that were on my 2024 list - racing against time :P

Tell me about it - and I can see you are not taking the name but I know which one it is :)
Ratings are always unpredictable and while I don't mind them being that high rated, it is sad to see that other great dramas are getting lost in the crowd.

Yes, sadly the ML passed away in 2001 - shortly after going to his family. But they have not shared any reason on how he passed away - I am assuming it must have been sudden, like an accident. It was incredibly sad - especially the last scene of the VHS tape.

Heartbreaking but beautiful movie!

Great article - thank you to the writers for jotting it down. I have seen only Exhuma and Following from this list and therefore will use this list to add the others to my watchlist.

Wish there was a save/bookmark feature for articles, so that I could save articles like these. MDL creators - maybe a feature to add soon? 🤞🏼
