It was nice to know that you remembered about my like and preference and not just that but coming across a drama exactly like that made you wanna recommend it to me. I find this childish about me but the relationship between stories and me has always been way more than just having a good time so I'm very picky about them and somehow I always end up choosing and liking a story which ends up in the worst possible heartbreak for me to ever recover from which makes me appreciate little peeks like these cause they help me brace for the impact. And yeah also don't worry about hitting me up for whatever the cause. My secret indulgence is having discussions with opposing views but also cause they're a great way to know about different perspectives and they help to get to know a person better. J-dramas are of shorter length and of greater quality especially in how well they execute scenes surrounding around emotional complexity which I live for in the stories. There's no other way to describe it other than RAW. So I highly doubt I would drop it even if the pilot episode doesn't catch my eye. I appreciate your recommendation.

Thanks for the update! I don't mind waiting for subs in general but I do get a little impatient when it comes to final episodes cause a faster conclusion helps soften the blow if the ending isn't what I hoped for especially in the case of noona romance cause one can never guess how it might end.

Honestly, it’s exhausting to watch how ML went from Prince Charming to stage-five clinger real quick. How many times does the FL have to say it’s not happening before it sinks in? Being the ML doesn’t give him a free pass to trample FL's boundaries. What’s worse is how out of character it is to see a suave ML suddenly forgetting the meaning of ‘no’? It feels like the writer’s muse took a vacation leaving me with character regression instead of the charm I signed up for.

Thanks, I'll keep it in mind cause nothing's truer than that!

I’ve been eyeing it for a while but I couldn't start with a weekend drama on my plate. I appreciate the recommendation nonetheless.

I haven't watched it yet. Your reply made me realise that I forgot to even add it to my ptw.

It was a good drama despite it's abrupt and nonsensical end.

2010's was a good period for kdrama ost's.

20th

I'll watch it only cause she ends up with SML in the OG version.

Yep, this was the drama which proved why I dislike high-school centered romances. Full of cringe and rotten cheese.

Tbh, he's not THAT bad in either skills or looks.

I'm mainly tuning in for Seong Jae and his delightfully dysfunctional family. I'm morbidly curious to see how he navigates that minefield and achieves some semblance of closure. Apparently, I have a type, because I'm also watching 'My Golden Life' by the same writer, and it's like déjà vu all over again: a downtrodden family with the eldest son playing the martyr. Two brothers and one sister, check. They even recycled Cheon Ho-jin. Honestly, the birth secret trope is wearing thin. So, unless Seong Jae's family shenanigans suddenly involve ninjas or time travel, they are pretty much the only thing keeping me from hitting the eject button.

nope. I decided to try auto-generated subs in the end like user DF4U considering it was still better than nothing at all.

Yeah. I am hoping for this pairing to get explored, as it could introduce a compelling element of forbidden tension that I would wholeheartedly welcome.

ML’s younger sister wants a wealthy partner, yet she overlooks SML right beside her who fits the bill not only in wealth but in kindness and looks as well. While his troubled past might clash with her sheltered world, there's potential for an interesting dynamic between them.

Why did it have to be so unnecessarily messy at only ep 5?? So dissappointing!

It’s not about how many episodes there are, but more about personal preferences for different reasons. You do you and let others do what suits them.

Yeah. His plans got disrupted when his retired dad got fired from a job he never even started, because apparently retirement is now legally binding.

Oh, I didn’t know that. That makes sense. Honestly, he didn’t seem like a flower boy even in his 20s because he gives off strong masculine vibes. I was just speaking from the usual idea that ML's are supposed to look more attractive than SML's.
