Really cute drama, and for once the FL was cute but not annoying at all. She really was able to pull off adorable but smart which is sometimes rare in a drama. Actually all the main female characters in this drama were really well written and it deserved to be watched for that. The chemistry isn't mind blowing between the leads but its really cute and it's definitely there. I did skip a lot of the story of the secondary couple even though I liked both their acting and chemistry but the drama just had too many filler scenes. This could have wrapped up nicely in 25 episodes. I really wish c-dramas would cut down their episode counts to make tighter scripts. It's great that they take time to establish the world/characters but there are a loooottt of unnecessary scenes.

Still this drama is completely what you want if you want nice fluff with a good FL and a cute story. Esp if you love books because the writer clearly cares deeply about books. And I loved that (and the bookstore) in this drama.

Side note: Does anyone else feel that Ryan Ding is too thin, everytime I watch his drama I worry about him starving himself. You are ok to put on a little more weight please!

yeah! I wonder if that was on purpose?

I can totally see why they dropped it to 12 episodes to be honest. There wasn't much more of a story to tell and they could have wrapped it up really nicely if they hadn't wasted time with the whole "I need space to figure things out" story line in the last episode, which they even resolved with her saying "was I ever even scared?" which just shows how dumb that story point was. All in all the last episode (the write knowing it was the last episode) could have ended it much better.

Also, repeating the comment that the husband was trash and I think he was forgiven way too easily.

Such a good drama, if only it wasn't for that waste of a last episode. I would have really liked the drama more. For this kinda story I think 12 episodes were enough, but they just dropped the ball in the last episode with a pointless plot. Super annoyed about that.

Otherwise it could have been a 9/10 because of the acting and the way it was shot and directed.

I think I have watched too many c-dramas lately and they (romcoms at least) now seem so formulated to me. It's a wonder they can keep recycling plots and characters to the point (historical or contemporary) all the cdramas have blurred into one. Like maybe one or two stand out and the rest are....meh. Still I am in a drama slump and I absolutely love the way you have colour coded this so I will look into the ones on the list that seem a little different and I haven't already watched.

Please do one for 2020/21 kdramas too! The article is so great to read!

Wow, what a cast of ridiculously good looking people. Everyone was so attractive and the acting was good too! I really wouldn't have minded a proper 16 episode drama from this, it all passes by so quickly and by the end you miss it (it's not normal that I want dramas to be longer too!).

Did anyone else get Goblin vibes from this cute short drama? Esp since the main actor was given such a similar style to Gong Yoo in this. Anyway this is a really quick and cute watch. Good story, not bad acting, and good OST. Definitely recommend.

they break up, she gets a little suicidal at first but then learns to love herself more. They eventually meet a few times for coffee but just as exes nothing else. Although her character was kinda ignored towards the end, she had a good ending in that she learned to lover herself (though they really should have shown it more).

I also felt so bad for the middle sister and what she had to go through but glad she has such an amazing daughter who was seriously the best part of this show! That story line was the one that made me cry the most.

Yes for the main couple.

Not bad but I preferred When the Weather is Fine. There were some parts that were too drawn out. The issue I had was that the male lead was too perfect. He had zero flaws and it made the whole drama too unrealistic esp since it's kind of slice of life and melo rather than romcom.

I did however love the portrayal of the three siblings. It was super adorable and kind of reminded me of my relationship with my siblings. How they would fight and feel hurt but also love and support each other.

I do definitely recommend watching as it is overall a sweet drama to watch.

I know, they really had more chemistry. The female lead was too stiff in all her scenes I felt.

It was pretty boring, ML carried the entire drama.

I saw the trailer and read the comments but like you said the ending is just open so I feel like I keep wasting my time watching it because everything they did didn't really make a difference in the long run.

No, season 1 didn't give me any reason to.

Yeah I really thought I would like it a lot too, but it I was kinda disappointed. Poor script and acting ( on a lot of the other actors). Even the FL was bland and at times her expressions/kiss scenes were so blank I wasn't even sure she was interested in the role.

This drama was entirely carried by the male lead. Lu Jing's passion for his love and fighting for his love is really the only reason to watch this drama. That and the ost is pretty decent. Otherwise I found everyone else's acting/storylines subpar in comparison. Whilst there was nothing wrong with the story, I feel the script was really weak. It wasn't funny enough in the comedic parts, a little too cheesy in some of the romantic parts and it took me 7 episodes to even be interested in the drama.

The writer also really did the second female lead dirty. Instead of feeling sorry for her I was so annoyed with her for being that weak. She gave up years of her life for nothing and put herself and the people around her in misery. I get it, she was hurt but she spent so long being miserable but it went on throughout the entire series so any sympathy you start out with dissipates within a few episodes.

This drama should have been 20 episodes with a tighter script and would have been stronger drama.

hahahah ;) I'm glad I'm not alone!

MTE. I wanted them to tell us. You can't just go sell that much gold randomly and also spend money like that. The tax office would be all over you!

I really liked her from the get go but her acting reminded so strongly of Jun Ji Hyun in you who came for the stars, I kept double checking it wasn't the same actress (even though obviously not). But I found her character to really compliment Vincenzo. Their romance was very positively portrayed too, they were both independent yet so supportive of the other.
