i feel the same about Healer!ehhh but whyyyyy. gosh i really loved and enjoyed AYHT, what's wrong about it tell…
aaa i'm sorry i completely forgot about your reply D:
to start i think i should acknowledge we probably have different tastes. you seem to be a big fan of Seo Kang Joon too. :'D
for me it was a combination of just bad characters, clear plotholes, and how they ended it wasn't appealing to me. i'm not big on "they lived happily ever after" as an explanation, the ending was rushed and nothing was explained. i wasn't impressed. i really love to see character development, and no bashing to the actors, especially Kang Joon, he really pulled off Nam Shin, but the writing of the characters was just so.. bad. i wish i took more notes when i was watching it so i could give an example, but it's been months since i finished it. one scene that stuck with me that was a mini turning point of exasperation with the whole show, was when Nam Shin or the researcher or someone was asking his mom to do something that made sense, and she dramatically and vehemently refused to even consider it because her real son was unconscious before her. she's supposed to be a scientist? i guess being smart and logical was her secondary character point, since she was clearly overwhelmed by a need to see her son grow up enough to spy on him and make a robot version of him. (btw, am i forgetting how she knew what he looked like? or was that just the writing again?)
1) Why couldn't they switch out his face plate? why couldn't they literally just give him a new face? he's a robot. he doesn't care what he looks like, and if the bodyguard loved him for who he was wouldn't she be willing to accept him with a new face? there are small complication with it, like who's face would they use, but soooo small in comparison to why they didn't bring it up at all. 2) i also just really hated the real Nam Shin and the way some of the characters acted, but uh, that was the point of them LOL. i watched it because i was drawn to the fatalistic aspect of a woman being attracted to a robot that couldn't feel emotions. what i wanted and what was delivered were two completely different things. it wasn't as seriously dealt with as i wished it were, so really, my dislike of it boils down to the childish characters and storyline and being disappointed. (why wasn't ANYONE willing to compromise or even talk about compromises? besides the "we'll take him far away and never cross paths again," which BTW why wouldn't that have worked mom??? smh)
I remember watching Strong Woman, it was only the second kdrama I had watched. I was suffering from withdrawal when I finished so I was watching behind the scenes on some channel, and they got the cast to say something to the audience. I remember Mi Kwan's, he was so smiley and completely different from his role and he said he hoped we didn't hate him too much and my hEARt ;A;
aaa, Healer was and still is a big favorite of mine. I don't generally cave for a sci-fi or super unrealistic plot, as they're usually over the top. For me Healer was like watching your favorite book. Everything seemed to fit just right in their world, even though none of it was even remotely realistic. I have a soft spot for it, but I can see how it isn't to everyone's taste.
Now, one show I was yelling at the entire time I watched it was Are You Human Too. Geez. What a clusterf*ck. No one besides the mom's assistant and the actual robot had any brain cells. There are so many plotholes, I was yelling about it for a week after I finished it. I saw a really moving edit about it and decided to watch it, but was SUCH a waste of my time, smh.
