I'm at the point in this drama (ep.10/11?) where at first things finally started to look bright, but then that awful army general dude escaped from prison and basically started to hunt the main leads for sport, and thus started this corruption storyline that's boring me to death. I'm really struggling to finish this drama. I've had it on hold for weeks now because I'm not sure if I want to continue it, and I just want to ask, is it worth finishing?
Why would they make a boy play a girl’s role ...come on where did all the little girls have gone
I saw on twitter that they casted him because the lead actress looked just like him when she was a child, and they wanted family resemblance for the mother and daughter characters
I was super disappointed by this drama. I had heard many people praising it, and it has like 9.7 stars on Viki. However the first 6 episodes or so were SO BORING. I almost dropped the whole drama simply because I was so bored. Around episode 8 or 9 things actually started to get interesting, and from that point onward the plot was just okay. However around the last 3 episodes it got really boring yet again. I struggled to finish this, during some scenes I didn't even pay any attention to what was going on because the scenes were that uninteresting. And to add, the ending was really lackluster and underwhelming. They left a ton of loose ends, including what happened to some of the villains and to the female lead's family. They didn't even really tell how the couple ended up living or if either of them achieved their dreams. They actually didn't give any of the characters much closure now that I think about it. However, the acting was good and the soundtrack was too, so I rated it 7.5. I took points off because the middle part should not be the only enjoyable part of a drama.
I watched this a few years ago and I just gotta say this is one of the absolute worst dramas I have ever seen, I'm still not over it. And I've seen almost 80 different dramas by now. The female lead is terrible, first of all she's only obsessed with the male lead because of his looks, which makes her really shallow. She's also childish and a complete doormat with no self-respect whatsoever. She literally obsesses over him so much that her whole world revolves around him. And don't even get me started on the male lead, he was just a coldhearted jerk who in my opinion never really loved the female lead, since he literally never stopped treating her like garbage. He kept walking all over her, and the worst part is that she was happily letting him do so, over and over again. If you value your time and sanity, don't watch this drama. It's not worth it.
OK so I finished this drama quite a while ago, but I suddenly got the feeling that I have to comment here about it. I have seen 70+ dramas and this one is no doubt the most confusing of them all. There are so many plots going on at the same time, that it gets frustrating and confusing to watch. This could have been a great drama, but the thousand side plots kinda ruined it.
~~~SLIGHT SPOILER~~~ It could have been slightly better if they had revealed some things earlier, and not all at once in the last episode. This way it could have been easier to follow and a little less frustrating. It was an interesting choice from them to build the story like they did, but unfortunately they executed it badly.
~~~ END OF SPOILER~~~
I gave it 7.5 stars because I liked the acting, especially Song Seung Heon's, and the plot and the theme were interesting, but as i said, they were also really messy.
I watched this out of curiosity, and the film is not as filthy as the description might make it seem like. I agree…
Though, I'd like to add that I found the sudden, uh, relationship? between Eungyo & Jiwoo a bit separate to the story, and quite unnecessary even. The build-up to it wasn't great, but in a way if you really start to think about it, it was understandable. Both of them were lonely and they were seeking warmth in each other. But due to the bad build-up, to me it didn't seem warm, it seemed quite cold. Almost emotionless, I'd say. At least from Jiwoo.
I watched this out of curiosity, and the film is not as filthy as the description might make it seem like. I agree that this film might not be everyone's cup of tea, but I myself found the relationship between the 70-year-old poet and the 17-year-old student almost tragically beautiful. The love was there, you could feel it while watching the two, and I found it so sad yet beautiful when the poet dreamt about being young again and truly being able to love a woman that young. There was yearning and loneliness in the film and I was pleasantly surprised by it. But, if you want to watch this film, prepare yourself for some pretty explicit sex scenes too. Let's just say that the relationship between the poet and the girl might have been pure, but that's not the case between all the characters. Anyway, open your mind, watch this film and let yourself be surprised by its beauty.
Why does this movie have such a low rating??? I thought it was amazing, I find it difficult to watch movies sometimes because I get bored and it gets hard for me to concentrate, however this movie was interesting from the beginning to the end. I think the horror-ish theme works pretty well in this, and it really makes you want to know more about what's happening. In my honest opinion I liked the ending too. Park Boyeong did an amazing job here, and I loved the relationship between her character Jooran and the other girl Yoondeok. Honestly I kind of shipped the two ^^" All in all, I gave this movie a 9. I really recommend giving this a try!
To be honest, I hated this drama. I watched Reply 1988 before this and I loved it, so I had pretty high expectations…
In my opinion Najeong would have made a better couple with Chilbong, because I think of Trash and Najeong more as siblings, and not a couple. But that might be just me. But overall this drama is honestly one of the worst ones from the almost 60 dramas I've seen, mostly because of the teasing.
To be honest, I hated this drama. I watched Reply 1988 before this and I loved it, so I had pretty high expectations for this one, but this really let me down. They were teasing waaay too much with the "who will be the husband?" plot and in my opinion she ended up with the wrong guy. The teasing made me so angry, and therefore I couldn't really enjoy the drama. The other characters were nice, I have no complaints of them, but the relationship between Trash and Najeong was awful, like in my opinion they really lacked chemistry and I didn't like them as a couple AT ALL. In my opinion she should've picked Chilbong instead. Also, it was REALLY obvious that Baro's character (Bingrae) had a crush on Trash?? But?? There was nothing? No confession, not anything, and then they forced a girl into Bingrae's life? Smh this drama was such a flop in my opinion. I have seen almost 60 dramas and this is in the top10 worst ones.
I heard that there won't be a second season because the show got banned in China or something? I'm so disappointed I wanna know what's gonna happen next!! Also I shipped Yang Meng and You Qi so hard I'm going to be so sad if their relationship doesn't go anywhere )-: I really wish for the second season to air.
