ponnu

antis as in fans of their rivals.. i thought kyj or jcw must have done or said something that didnt go down well with the korean public..
i think out of the 3, jcw was the last to become famous so its understandable that he is the least popular.. prior to BR and IOTNBO, i have only seen 1 dramas each of KSH and JCW and liked it both. i wasnt exactly a fan of both at that time but now i am liking both of them. i have seen 3 dramas of LMH and didnt like any of them..
i thought actor's fans didnt fight with each other like idol fans..

same here..

DH directly told her to keep the distance in ep 5 or 6 and since then she clearly has kept her distance. thats why she was against the piggyback for the photo-shoot.. even the first piggyback she didnt had any bad intention. she didnt do that to create any problems b/w DH and YJ. she was clearly trying to tease him and being playful.
in the initial episodes the boss tried to express his feelings and YJ dodged the question and from the start she clearly knew he liked her. i am not telling that she should cut off her friendship with him. i am just saying if she has the right to have a professional and personal relationship with a guy who she clearly knows has feelings for her then so does DH. DH deserves that much trust from her.
YJ never vocally said she has a problem with SB till DH figured it out after their dinner with SB and asked her about it. that time she said DH should have understood her without her saying anything. if so then she should also understand DH being uncomfortable with the boss without him saying it. DH is uncomfortable with a lot of things in their relationship but she never notices him. its like in their relationship his only job is to keep her happy and understand her, vice-versa dont exist.
she was only giving lame reasons to fire SB from her job but never directly showed her dislike for SB. the thing is YJ pretends to be too cool to be jealous of someone like SB who is not t her match but in reality, is super jealous of the fact that a young and pretty girl is roaming around her bf( she was fine she mistook her friend to be the part timer). she knew nothing about SB or her feelings for DH during the bathroom incident but it didnt take her a minute to accuse SB of bullying her and she didnt regret doing that till now. if DH didnt find out about the things SB has done for him, SB would have been fired for something she didnt do and YJ would have never shown any regret for falsely accusing someone. SB would have been nice to her if YJ at least showed any remorse over the false allegation.
if SB really did had any intention of getting in b/w YJ and DH then she should have been happy hearing YJ and DH are having problems in their relationship and wont even think of quitting the job. by that time DH was not the only reason for her being happy with her job. she did give her 100% and really liked his mother and had people who around her who liked her and appreciated her hard work. she was also fine with DH just being her mentor/guardian.
in the promo its clear that YJ still maintains a professional relationship with the boss even after him crossing the line. for someone who is financially stable and is good at her job it wont be hard for her to get another job. but she still chose to be in the company working for him. on the other hand she dont care that SB is the sole reason why DH and his family is doing good and only care about her insecurities over SB.

when both the leads are unbareable the drama is guaranteed to be a snooze fest..

the comedy part of this drama was topnotch with some iconic comedy scenes..
i like male leads who support the FL over the oves that boss them around. so i liked the characterization of the ml in this one.
but i didnt like anything else in this drama.. the acting of the leads were strictly average and at times the FL overacts a lot and the ML dont have much expressions..

her dream to create a game with a character having the same super power as her was an escapism. since she had to hide who she is she wanted to create a game where she can be herself.. but then she found a way to use her powers the right way.
the babies scene was purely for comedy and no logic applied..

pby dont act cute..she is simply cute.. she looks very cute and on top of that has a childlike voice.. its not her fault. even in the melodramatic movie werewolf boy, when she cries at the end you will feel like an innocent child crying.. thats one of the reason why audoience feel bad for her characters when she cries..

all thats to the perfect love story of the leads.. this show has one of the most perfect male lead in kdrama.
i dont think this drama is overrated.. it delivers what it promises.. a romantic comedy thriller.. the villain gets on your nerves as he should be, the leads make you love them and this show definitely has a lot of iconic scenes as well as one of the most iconic onscreen couple..

the 2nd lead in this drama had all the qualities of a typical male lead of kdrama.. short-tempered, arrogant and dont give the fl the respect she deserves.. the ml had all the qualities of a typical 2nd ml.. he was supportive and respectful towards the fl.

i never knew jcw and kyj had antis. isnt she like korea's little sister or something? dont know much about jcw but never heard anything bad about him either..

the only option is to wait till it get finished and then binge watch.. i always regret watching ongoing dramas but is too impatient to wait till it finish airing..

netflix is already uploads it when it starts airing on tvn. this one is a tvn and netflix show not just netflix original were they upload all the episodes at once.
also netflix is already the most expensive streaming site..

also i think they should have cast someone else other than jcw.. in a look obsessed society like sk, a guy as good looking as DH could have easily made a career in modelling.
i just cannot see him as an ordinary guy even though his acting is quite good. i have seen him only in suspicious partner and 5-6 episodes of healers and not a big fan of him but still cannot image him as a very simple guy..
i am not saying he is a misfit but his onscreen presence is very strong for him to be seen as a simple guy who is very relatable..
i appreciate him for choosing roles where he is not the alpha male but some scenes like him fan boying over puppy were weird to me.. throughout the entire scene i was like dude you are ji chang wook, stop fanboying over a kid..
even though kim soo hyun is a bigger star than jcw i can totally imagine him being such an ordinary guy in IOTNBK but not jcw.
i have very mixed feelings towards jcw in this drama( nothing to do with his acting) even-though i enjoy watching the drama and i like his chemistry with kyj. they do look good together and the age difference is hardly noticeable..
may be i am the only one who feels this way and its solely my opinion.. dont take it in a negative way..

i guess SB is the only one who will like him for who he is without trying to change him or be ashamed of his bg.. also she has the guts to standup for DH no matter what. YJ clearly knows that DH is a good guy but in these 2 years she didnt learn to respect him. she clearly dont value him much even though i dont doubt on her feelings for him.. they didnt had any fight or misunderstanding in their 2 year relationship because YJ was getting everything she wanted without making any effort from her side.. even if YJ and DH somewhat make it through he will always feel inferior to her and her family is not gonna respect him.. YJ hides all her shortcomes in the relationhsip and blames everything on DH and SB.
with SB there is equality in the relationship. DH talks very comfortably with SB than with his gf of 2 yrs. SB needs the care and love of DH whereas DH needs the support of SB. she clearly has it in her to make DH more confident and he is matured enough to to handle SB's impulsiveness.. with Sb, DH dont try too hard and is himself..
DS is a good friend to DH and except for him trying too hard to be an erotic writer he is a very normal guy.

since his college was mentioned 2 times i thought that was a reputed college.. i thought he was good academically but still, couldnt make it coz of his timid nature.
so ji chang wook is actually playing an extremely ordinary guy.. lol.. thats hard to digest..

oh ya now i get it.. thank you..

even though the boss didnt say it directly that he is gonna pursue her till ep 6, she knew he liked her the same way DH knew SB liked him. but she decided to still have a professional and personal relationship with the boss. he is close enough to attend her father's private bday party.
same way DH also has the right to maintain at least a professional relationship with SB since she is a huge help for him. also its pretty clear that DH is not the kind to cheat. he is clearly capable of handling SB the same way YJ is capable of handling her boss's feelings. the least she should have done is trust him. also SB clearly maintained her distance with DH when he asked her while the boss never did it. he kept on indirectly indicating his like for YJ.
also SB's over friendly behavior is not solely for DH. she is like that to everyone who is nice to her. she was pretty out spoken and friendly with that long hair middle aged guy she worked with or promotion and even to DH's mother and father. she talks to everyone who is nice to her in a very affectionate manner.
she need DH to understand that she is not comfortable with SB but dont seems to care to notice that DH is more uncomfortable with her being close to her boss.

i think knetz problem with BR ended with the first 2 episodes. since i have seen the fiery priest and sky castle i got those jokes but not the movie ones. when did romantic dr.kim was referred?
i am still trying to figure out why IONTBO not getting much trp. i like everything about that drama.

they showed a flashback where DH gets bullied and mistreated by his senior. i think DH graduated from a reputed college and the senior didnt like that.. so he might have thought its better to open a store of his own than work under someone.
i guess thats one of the reasons why DH didnt fire SB. he can see she is doing her best work and she dont deserved to be fired due to personal reasons..

except for the 1st 2 episodes where to give a wrong idea of SB she hasnt done anything wrong.. she gave it back to YJ solely because YJ accused her of bullying her out of nowhere and even after getting caught didnt give her a proper apology.. instead was showing attitude.. at the bathroom YJ had no solid reason to blame SB except the fact that SB was pretty.. she was totally fine with the part timer when she though SB's friend to be the part timer.. she was like that girl is not pretty enough to be my competitor..
if SB had to get in b/w them for real she wouldnt have quit her job.. she would have been more than happy if DH and YJ were having problems.. SB is immature or infatuated with DH but still dont want DH to be hurt because of her..
also DH was upset and sad because of her mother and she straight away went to SB and blamed her when she had nothing to do with it.. she didnt care for the fact that because of SB, DH's business is doing well or that the girl was hospitalized..
will YJ quit her job if she finds out DH is uncomfortable with her boss? if according to her, SB should stay away from DH for having feelings for him then she should also stay away from the director who directly said he wont back out and is actively pursuing her.. relationship is 2 way street.. why should DH be the one to adjust and sacrifice?
