Actually, yes! But I think it's more that she's a die hard fan but she's trying to act cool with him so it just feels like she's trying so hard not to be into him when we know she should be? And yeah, KMG chemistry with Inah on BP was hard to beat.

No because same 😭 I saw the previous for this week’s episodes and I cringed because the romace is gonna seem so forced 🫠 Idk what it is, I can’t put my finger to what is not working in this couple but I saw more chemistry between WYW and any other member of Wild Animals or the singer sunbae. With KD it just seems like theyre friends.

Binged all 6 episodes today to get caught up. Honestly had so much high hopes for this one but for some reason, we can’t just quite get there. I can’t put my finger on it but I think the fact that the dark fantasy is much heavier than I anticipated kinda fizzles out the fun concept of this drama. There’s just also so much going on in such short amount of time that its so hard to even attach yourself on one thing, let alone follow all the stories. On top of that, they also go in depth in so much sad backstory for the characters and the chemistry is still lacking between the leads. It’s not giving me bubbles or butterflies or flowers during the supposedly romantic scenes.

Kim Mingue has been fantastic though. He’s doing his thing and carrying this drama on his back for sure. But idk man. I think I just expected this drama to be more fluffy and comedic than it’s turning out to be. I kinda wished they stuck more into the Lembry trying to navigate life as a modern human story and the whole idol industry vs. leaning so hard with the fight with the demon bit.

I died at your response 😂 I get it tho, there’s no bubbles popping up in their scenes 😭 it’s even harder because KMG last couple was headg fluttering.

Didn’t know Sunjae was gonna deliver some angst but I guess I shouldve seen that one coming!! 😂

Some random thoughts before the final eps. this weekend:
-I don’t really know what the whole debate about whether or not Haeyi will go for Geonhu is about lol I love the guy. I love his character, but I cannot take him seriously as a romantic interest 😂 I don’t think Haeyi does either. I feel like he did what he did in ep. 13? as a plot device to encourage Sunjae. Anyway, I’m of the opinion that Haeyi doesn’t pick now and they make a spin-off for her. I don’t watch school dramas but I will watch that forreal.

-Haeyi’s mom showing up out of nowhere is literally a waste of story time 🙄 I don’t think they could do anything in the story that would make me think otherwise.

-Literally jail for both Sua’s mom and Sunjae’s mom. 🙄 Like literally. I would say Sua’s mom is the biggest villain but Sunjae’s mom comes so close especially with the way she treats her other son? Nah. These women deserves nothing.

This is the first time I watch a Korean survival show because I’ve always just watched the Chinese ones (idk why, I just fell into it by chance 😂) and I wasn’t even gonna watch this but I really wanted to love it because they were really selling an internationally mixed group and OHHHH BOY, I hate myself for believing that this was actually gonna be that. I just watched ep. 3 & 4 and im so mad at how biased/cooked this show is!! Like why even bother bringing in these international trainees when theyre basically just gonna keep on going with the theme of dunking on the international trainees, basically showing off that only koreans can do kpop? Call me blind but those performance didn’t call for 6 out of 7 going to the K group. Also, rooting for Hui but Jay absolutely slayed those vocals. Ughhh I hate it here 😤😭

Not just any nsfw too 🤣 so iconic. Also that music didn’t even fit that party’s vibes so its even funnier

I’m barely on ep. 14 so Idk yet how this ends but I just wanna say something about Ling Ting.

I’ve never taken LT’s feelings for HXX seriously but after the letter in ep. 14, I just know LT is not really in love with HXX anymore and he’s more just in love with the idea of her and them being together. At this point, he has been hanging out with SMX alot already and his actions look like he enjoys being around SMX and that he cares about her but because he’s been so stuck pining for HXX for 15 years, he wont give it up even if he doesn’t feel like that anymore. Now, I think he and SMX will end up together because after he officially gets rejected by HXX, he can finally realize that he’s just fine because he’s not really in love with HXX anymore and that the one he likes is actually SMX so the turnaround in his feelings is fine. But for any woman, Idk if SMX is gonna be able to accept that turnaround given the love letter and the hurtful things he said to her in ep. 14. 🥺

lmfao I was thinking the same thing 😂😭 It played for quite awhile too.

Maybe 10 mins at most? She had 2 scenes.

This drama has me wrapped around its little fingers 😭😭😭 SOOOO SOOO GOOD. I can’t wait for next week but at the same time dreading for it to come closer to the end.

Because typical kdrama would point to the assistant. But more than that, all the characters that got killed has been someone that Chiyeol complained to his assistant about. Also the brother has been obviously distraught after seeing the other math teacher dead. The drama is obviously placing him as a fake-out to the real murderer.

Yes lol but theyre short! They’re like 30 mins. each.

Hahaha same!! They’ve always somehow felt like they always come back to each other anyway and the reason for separating never felt final, but even so I’ve never cared whether they were gonna get back together because they both still have growing to do. But now that Oh Hara is leaning into her love and Goo Eunbeom allowing himself not to miss a second chance, I somehow feel so happy and excited for them 😂 Will it be messyier soon enough? Im sure, but this is romcom afterall, I’m very hopeful for a good ending.

LOL same. Like I didn’t care for if they were gonna get back together or not, but now that she’s fully leaning into her real feelings and he’s letting it happen makes me kinda excited for them.

I didn’t say people are “hating” because of the portrayal of the doctor is cute and funny. I’m a woman in 2023, I agree that women should be portrayed more as real, three dimensional beings. But that’s not what I was talking about. I said, I saw comments of people “hating” on the actress saying that they don’t like her because she’s not good at acting or the way she acts in this drama is not working and I said I found her acting to be good and funny. My personal opinion.

Now, should her character have been written better? Yes. But again, not what I was talking about.

And if you think I was justifying her character by saying not many doctors know how to do math off the top of their head, that’s not what I was doing either. It seems to be such an issue that doctors are so smart they can’t have possibly gotten their medical license without being able to do simple math off the top of their head so I was making a point of saying to stop romanticizing doctors. I work with plenty of doctors (both men and women) who can’t do simple math off the top of their heads. And that’s fine. They didn’t go to school for 10 years to do math, they went to school to learn how to diagnose and treat people. Now, should her character have been written to have thought about picking up a calculator to do math? Yes. 100% I agree.

Yes! Which is a big problem because not many doctors are actual geniuses lol

I am sold on this drama 🤩 There is wayyyy too much going on in the background but I am loving all the fun banter between the main leads plus Ok Shin and Gak Shin. I also love how Kokdu is this supposed god of death that everyone should be scared of but you cannot even take him seriously 😂 Kim Jung Hyun’s comedy, especially as Kokdu, is unmatched and it’s definitely what makes this drama soo good. I am so glad I didn’t let the first 2 episodes stop me because ep. 3 and 4 is really where things ramp up. It’s just so fun.

Also, Ive seen a lot of people hating on the FL but I find her good and funny in this one. And listen, I work in healthcare and I certainly know a lot of doctors who can’t do simple math. Why waste your time doing math when you have a shit ton of medical shit swirling in your brains? You have a calculator for that.

OMG, I was about to give up on being able to watch this but now it's gonna be on Hulu. I'm so excited 😭 This drama better not break my heart.

I dont think they necessarily don’t work together. I’m not saying they should get back together but if they worked for 10 years before, then they must have something good going on. I just feel like they maybe both lost the way and they havent experienced growth from their past because both have been harnoring extreme emotions, but after they grow and actually talk, i would be interested to see how they get resolved.
