got freaked out in the last 20 min if it would turn out like 20th century girl , but nice save there seri hahaha…
TMAI! I kept expecting the worst because the drama kept reminding me of 20CG and weirdly enough Lovely Runner too (Sunjae's college year trauma scenes from ep 10-13)🥲
Didn't help that the ML died in his last HS drama right after he confessed to his crush too. Thinking back the movie was a tad stressful waiting for the worst to happen 🙈🙈🙈
OMG! Another drama with a bad ending??? I haven’t watched Our Generation yet because of the bad reviews about…
TBH Our Generation isn't as bad as they say. It's just that some were expectating a romance like in WIFTY. This has a lot more angst and even if there's romance, I'd say it's better marketed as the FL's coming of age story- how she navigates through her youth with her friends and troubled first love.
I do admit that the ML's fans would probably be disappointed that he doesn't have a lot of screentime but thay's how his character is written🙊
With SOOY, you are given 2 endings to choose from so compared to how this kind of drama is handled, I wouldn't say this was that bad. I mean If you don't want the censorship loophole ending, you can still have a satisfying happily ever after at the 32min 58ish secs mark of the last episode.
China censors rebirth/ reincarnation and this drama is no exception since the fl gets sent back in time (rebirth).…
Exactly. I even love how the way they did the 33 mark. They definitely gave fans a chance to accept this point as an ending given how suspiciously long they took to end the proposal scene.
"It's like if Lucifer was portrayed as love interest that is hiding his real identity from the female lead…
Shhh- we don't want Tom Ellis to get hit by any stray bullets by some overzelous netizens🤫
Honestly is it that enabling? My mum is super religious as a christian but even she knows the difference between fiction and her values- she hasn't tried to exorcise me yet at least for being a fan of Lucifer the TV SERIES back then and even for rewatching it now- nor have I turned into some kind of satanist worshipper just because I've watched random episodes of it over the last 10 years 🤷♀️
If a person doesn't like it/ finds it offensive, complain once and move on. There's no point name calling everybody over and over again 😅
Just like people still enjoy Aladdin as well as many of the stories from the Arabian Nights, this too will continue to thrive as long as the script is good.

It's all in the context.
The ML we know from the original timelinewould never quit over an elavator. Even if the ML held her hand just to assure the FL, he wouldn't have smiled in such a loving and knowing way. It doesn't suit the original timeline guy we know. I am basing this from what we know about him in ep 1, her flashbacks, his flashbacks+ monologues, as well as Lin J's comments on how he has been behaving irrationally after he woke up).
Additionally, the last memory original timeline ML had was of arguing with her. It has been 10+ days since the incident but from the way Lin J was acting, it looked like no action was taken for sabotaging the FL (at least yet). If the ML truly didn't have any memories, then he would have reported this too before quitting. Using a rediculous reason to quit instead reflects the new timeline's bold and sneaky ML's personality more.
Finally, eyes talk- the way they stared at wachother was in a "welcome back" kind of way.🙊
I totally agree with you with the last paragraph- it really isn't a loss specially knowing how tenacious she as well as the ML are. Just like how they used their original TL experience to brighten their new life, they will probably do the same again.
Because the besotted fool needs to truly feel the consequences. Having the blood of your crush's life long friend…
IKR?! My feelings for Chu were like a rollercoaster ride honestly. Started with indifference but by ep 26-30, I began to empathize with him (despite some of his delusional dreams for HY), but then he just lost it 🙈
It would have nice if they could have wrapped up his arc after his master was sentenced…sadly it’s not the case😌
A drama within a drama….within a drama. - that’s the best way I can think of summing up Aema. Filled with oxymorons - sometimes harsh (specially when you know it could be somebody’s reality even right now) but hidden under all that glitz and horror, you can still find a few diamonds 🥲
Love both the main leads - both were filled with spunk - true bombshells (emphasis on “bomb”😎)! One thing I love about Aema is that they didn’t try to shove down a “pure” innocent romance in between the story -the closest in fact would probably be the “friendship” between Ju Ae and her friend (it’s vague and blurry enough to be read as either true sisterhood or something more). Best guy goes to Yeong Bae - a character so obscure, he doesn’t even have a credit on MDL’s cast list. Rather refreshing to see loyalty in a sea of depraved narcissists and betrayers.
The ending was rather sensational but given the industry and true reality behind Jung Hui Ran’s plan, I guess it didn’t hurt.
Overall, it was an interesting watch - for 6 episodes, they did well with the limited screen time given.
Why kill off Yan He? Is it because somebody has to be sacrificed then why not the besotted fool that caused the…
Because the besotted fool needs to truly feel the consequences. Having the blood of your crush's life long friend on your hands can be a better example than a faceless soldier🥲🥲🥲
Every time I see people complaining about why the FL is weak, scared, or not strong and useful, I feel like they…
She's the most relatable FL ngl. Corporate worker vacationning in some immortal world far far FAR AWAY from from your work station sounds like a dream come true🤭
In the first episode, I thought she was a genius and the show would reflect that. I was wrong. disappointing
Her strength is not being a traditional genius / behave like Sherlock Holmes. It's more how she's so tenacious, she digs deep until she comes across data nobody else bothers to consider.
I'd say her strongest feature is her OCD - hunger to find the truth even if it contradicts with her role as a lawyer. Like with the child abuse case for instance. All she had to do was to find a way to help her client (the "dad") and they even found reasonable evidence enough to discredit the nanny but because she couldn't ignore her gut feeling, she crossed the line enough to even make Yun concerned.
It can be a double edged sword though at times like with ep 6- her need to find the truth nearly messed their case😅

Loved this though❤️
During a game of dodgeball, Heo Tae Yun gets "killed" by his uncle again - guess it's fate😅

The fact that his catch phrase is "kill X" while looking mischevious and not murderous at all is hilarious 🤣
