I have mixed feelings but I'm going to give it more time. One of ML is the same actor who played my favorite character in Generation Y (Wayu's mischievous younger brother).
K-dramas seem to have suffered from becoming too popular, and hence too pressured to succeed while being different. They gave us some really likable characters that eventually, after the audience became really invested, faced some serious situations and overcame them.
Now, they almost immediately go over the top with some element (usually involving sociopathic, Biblical Cain levels of bullying) that creates too much tension to watch easily, never allowing the audience to get invested first. I actually started watching K-dramas because there was some leveling of brutality that allowed them to be at first escapist and then, therapeutic as they faced conflicts. The only K-drama genre that consistently focuses on introducing extremely likable characters seem to be their shorter BL dramas.
I haven't been able to transition to C-dramas yet, finding many just hard to follow and , instead discovering what I used to enjoy in T-dramas (Tawainese and Thai). Those I mix them with J-romcoms, that mostly seem to have contract marriages or forced cohabitation, I get by.
I was rooting for Seongmin and Hwi, but now, I'm just rooting rooting for Hwi. I don't like anyone being looked down on because of their age. I would root for Seungjin but I don't think anyone in the house will become interested in him except as a friend.
Now that we are close to ... a certain resolution that most watchers don't want to be reminded of, I have one big question.
(Not to down anyone's personal struggles, but...) how much do you think the actor who had to miss out on being in this production is kicking himself? I wonder because Satang, who replaced him, is knocking his performance out the park (baseball analogy).
Not that the entire ensemble's portrayal of friendship and romance isn't great (Beer, as the faithful supportive friend for example, makes the most of a comparatively small part). But Satang speech and facial expressions/dimples are so constantly disarming that it's bound to be the most memorable part of the show for me at least.
What about Love Tractor and Unintentional Love Story, if you can handle the switch to Korean dramas?. Among Thai…
I've rewatched the ones with the sweetest characters, but I make sure to space it out. There are also some soothing Tawainese dramas I could mention (They each have cameos of the main couple from the previous drama, which I always chuckle at).
What about Love Tractor and Unintentional Love Story, if you can handle the switch to Korean dramas?. Among Thai…
Oh almost forgot Remember Me and My Only 12% are super sweet dramas as well. (Suddenly realizing that all the fully adult-aged BL dramas get either hot and heavy or melodramatic...or both).
Can you guys please suggest me this type of comfort series T_T
What about Love Tractor and Unintentional Love Story, if you can handle the switch to Korean dramas?. Among Thai dramas, The Boss and the Babe has almost as big a collection of friends although it gets tense at the end and the same main couple is featured in Only Friends. The Last Twilight is another sweet storyline and main characters. And if you like SOTUS, I suggest you check out Be My Favorite. And if you can handle trying out Japanese dramas, Mr. Sahara and Toki-kun features a main character almost as cute as Satang is being in We Are.
MG seems to be the biological father. She met this guy after she already had GR.
I'm interested in how others feel about the performance of the actor playing MG. I'm really impressed with the range he is displaying in a supporting character role.
Really starting to appreciate his performance in Unpredictable Family, especially the subtlety in the way he is handling portraying both the doting father and betrayed boyfriend at the same time. He's really elevating a support role into the same emotional investment as a main one. I hope this project propels him to further success.
Seriously, when will CY get to slap JA again? SW is too old for her to run around playing helicopter mom and bullying ES. While I really like most of the show, I'm starting to get angry every time JA appears on the screen. Now it looks like she will start doing the same with EH and that will really set me off.
Considering all the korean dramas involving time travel, I'm surprised no one has tried to adapt one of the few Canadian dramas with a similar theme, Being Erica. It has several seasons of comedic and dramatic material to use, some hilarious and some very touching. I at least would love to see a Korean Version.
Came on here to see if anyone else was bothered by the dubbing. I feel reassured that I wasn't being too sensitive reading the other comments. Of course, no one else mentioned the absence of outside noises. I mean, are Thai outdoor markets really that quiet in the background?
