lee dong wook is natural at playing supernatural beings... he looked so perfect in the drama

just checked and there are accounts created to give this one 10/10 as well... but its comparatively lesser in number but its still there...
i hope mods delete those accounts as well...

i am seeing a lot of accounts thats created today giving it a 1 star...
i understand people who watched it from the start and got disappointed giving a 1 star or 2 stars but who are these people that create new accounts just to give 1 star?

i have to check all the accounts that gave this a 10/10 as well...

edit: there are also some accounts created just to give this one 10/10...

just for fan service and to create curiosity... him swinging his umbrella and turning it into a sword is one of the coolest thing in the show...

nobody thought kim seon ho will blow up like this...
there is a difference b/w established actors and popular actors... startup has popular actors as leads...

you mean along with dramas like iotnbo, hospital playlist and flower of evil... that will be a disrespect to those dramas...

just because there are worst dramas does mean this one automatically becomes better...
what is a good one for you is not necessarily a good one for others...

the overall rating of the drama is 7.9 and thats a pretty accurate rating for this drama...

Just take hjp out of the picture and the drama still lacks a good storyline... The drama is still average...
1.Acting of everyone except ksh and the grandma is just average (Kang hana was an extended cameo so she didn't really get to show her potential)
2.The second female lead who made it on her own had to apologize to the FL who made it big solely because of the ML... In reality it's women like the second FL that's makes it big and not women like the FL who takes decisions based on emotions and don't really make any rational decisions...
3. The entire startup is shown in rose tinted glasses...
4. Dosan and dalmi don't have much characterization...
5. It's promoted as a youth motivational drama and the male lead says multiple times that the female lead is his dream... The guys literally does everything just for the girl... Nice motivation for the youth ..
6. 2 yrs of starting a business and sst guys who are college graduates don't even know the basic of business and behaviours like highschool graduates who started a business... If dosan went for an MBA after engineering and then set up a business it would have made more sense... But he just sat on a dusty office and wasted his parent's money...
7.the FL made it big because everyone else in the drama favoured including her sister who she sees as a rival... Like which company would hire a ceo who got fired because of her own stupidity other than her own sister...
8. The ML is supposed to be a living Buddha but looses his cool the moment someone criticises the FL even if the FL herself is fine with it... Breaks name plate and behaves unprofessionally with almost everyone...
9. 3 yrs and injae dont know about grandma's condition...
10. Saha falling for chulsan...
11. Yongsan accusing hjp of murder...
12. Singing a 3million worth contract just in a day...

There are more but I guess this much is more than enough to not give this drama anything above 7...

Some are giving it a 10 as well even though it don't deserve that... Do it will balance out

ML from boys over flowers... I don't think I need to say the reasons... I just dislike the entire drama...

Dramas that I disliked and dropped- boys over flowers, heirs, melting me softly... There are other but I cannot remember it...

I don't usually have SLS and I personally don't know what exactly is called SLS... If it's about liking the 2nd lead over the ML then yes I had SLS with startup and a couple of other dramas but if it's about the SL getting the girl then I didn't had SLS... I was almost sure that dalni won't end up with dosan...
I didn't had SLS in school 2015 because I watched it after knowing who she ends up with... I just found that her ending up the njh didn't make any sense...

Also dont cast an actor with amazing acting skills and immense screen presence as the 2nd lead...

And foreheads except yongsan...

The second couple were so good in it...
The FL just won't stop crying... Hwarang has some hilarious crack videos on youtube...
I laughed out loud everytime Minho gets hit by his sister...

I think it was the best drama that just aired in the last 2 months... I heard dodo solsol had a very bad ending, startup definitely went down hill after 4-5 episodes and compared to that totnt did better... It had its low points but certainly was worth watching... The male lead played by Lee dong wook is really smart and sharp... Kim bum even though has way more flaws than dosan was interesting to watch... The FL was smart as well... It also has some really nice action scenes and creepy scenes... Except for the villian and his side kick all the other characters were likable...

Moon ga young used to be under sm entertainment with handles exo, the group d.o is part of... So she was the FL in a webseries called exo next door... I became a fan of exo because of exo next door... Its a cringe fest but has some funny scenes... Also unlike other idol group based webseries exo next door comparitively had decent acting.. (only comparitively)... Moon ga young was really funny in it though... She is now under keyeast which is a subsidiary of Sm... You won't be able to evaluate d.o's acting by seeing exo next door... None of the characters except mgy has to do any sort of acting... The members are there for fan service but thankfully all of them were pretty decent with their dialogue delivery...
I share the same feeling as you when it comes to park bo gum... I also dropped love in the moonlight and even didn't like his character in it... He was one useless crown prince... I watched this drama right before 100days started airing and 100days was 20times better than love in the moonlight... Infact it is the one of the very few historical kdrama I managed to finish...
I also dropped hwarang.. even though I enjoyed the scenes with all the guys the FL and the main love story was just unbareable...

I also dropped hwarang have way through because of the irritating FL and the snooze fest of a love story... If they took out the love story and gave more screen time to the rest of the guys and the 2nd love story, hwarang would have been such an amazing drama...

People even started making videos on the injustice hjp faced...

I watched kyungsoo's movie with jo Jung suk before I got into exo and cried a river( I only follow exo and not into k-pop as such)... I didn't know he was an idol when I saw that movie... I guess I also saw his movie with kim so hyun before I knew of exo... I ugly cried in that movie as well... He always chooses movies were I have to empty a tissue box...
After swdbs I ended up watching almost all the drama hyungsik played major roles in... He literally stole the limelight from park seo joon in hwarang... It's extremely rare to see an idol actor stealing the thunder from a professional actor... He did the same in high society as well but the male lead of HS wasn't a good actor at all... He and nam ji Hyun were the highlight of what's wrong with my family... Hyungsik also manages to have great chemistry with his costars... Even though his chemistry with bo young is off the charts, he also had amazing chemistry with nam ji Hyun and his co-star from high society...

Funnily in tale of the nine tailed also the ML disappears for some times and comes back 6 months later... But had solid reason for that unlike startup...
So in short, in all the 3 dramas the ML gets seperated from the FL for quite some time... Lol
