Sometimes actors like to take a break by taking less emotionally taxing roles. The cast seem to enjoy alot in…
Exactly. It seemed like both AEJ and JKY were taking a break from doing intense roles back to back and wanted to do something fun and goofy for a change. 😇
Come on, the writer might have butchered the main love story in the middle but they still had far superior chemistry…
Yeah! They are so cute together. Not them arguing whose nose the munchkin in the making has got. Tbh, I didn't expect them to even give us them dating. So, this couple's conclusion is beyond satisfactory. 😍 Also, you called it! We got babies, y'all, courtesy of the Go Da Rim and Gong Ji Hyeok Productions! 🤣🥰
*Boom* 💥😉Well said! I love how the drama constantly reminds you to never give up. With Da Rim's situation,…
Thanks!
IKR?! Keep the hustle going. Da Rim is the poster girl for when the going gets tough, the tough get going. 😃 Tbh, all the characters had purpose and love the overall message of making best of the second chances you get. 💖
I am keenly aware that I am in the miniscule minority that thoroughly enjoyed this drama from start to finish. Just because there were a few hiccups along the way, the drama doesn't became irredeemably bad. Yes, the drama is flawed, yet, for me specifically, it gave us what it promised: a wonderfully clichéd romcom that becomes a source of respite after a long, hard day. I also liked how the drama snuck in some important messages. The best aspect of this drama is that it gives you a choice to either dig deeper, or to chuck your thinking cap aside and simply enjoy the ride. As for realism, the drama never staked a claim to being gritty and realistic. For me, it's a very re-watchable drama. I'd rate this drama a solid 8.5.
Many find Da Rim less invested in her relationship with Ji Hyeok. However, that's how a person on autopilot comes across. It is kind of hard to understand unless one has come across someone like that, or has experienced it first hand. Apart from Da Rim, I loved most of the characters be it Ji Hyeok, Gyeong Min, Ha Yeong, Seon U, Go Eun, etc. I liked the fact that the supporting characters didn't simply exist to prop up the main leads. Moreover, a shoutout to the hilarious cameos. (In episode 14, the use of that dratted pointer was hilarious. Absolutely comedy gold!)
Unlike many other shows, the workplace scenes were interesting and I did not fast forward a single scene with the Mother TF team. They were such a joy to watch. And my second most favourite ship sailed and how! I love that the finale had two little munchkins and a munchkin in the making. 😁 I absolutely loved the finale ending with a random, goofy dance by the entire cast. Great way to break the fourth wall. It felt so reminiscent of the quirky outros with the cast dancing that Japanese drama productions sometimes have. For everyone finding the dancing cringe, since when is lighthearted dancing cringe? We all gotta lighten up a bit.
Lastly, in the vein of Dynamite Kiss' last message, here's to many more dynamite romcoms. 🥰
I know right?! Tbh, the drama has given us for the most part exactly what we had signed up for.
Tbh, I hadn't watched the trailer before watching the first two episodes. And when I did, I felt excited for the scenes to come. The drama never tried to be something it wasn't. For me, this drama is quite re-watchable. It has just the right amount of romance, silliness, and depth.
She is excellent here. She is portraying a charming, but inexperienced person, who learned how to be a hard worker…
I loved The Long Ballad for the very creative choices that other viewers disliked it for. I loved the main leads more than the second leads unlike many others. I loved most of the characters, even the antagonists! I loved the cast! If I remember correctly, none of my favourite characters died. This drama was my introduction to Dilreba Dilmurat, Leo Wu, Liu Yuening, and many of the supporting cast. Also, the action choreography in this drama wasn't topped before Blossom came along. I am a sucker for well choreographed action/fight scenes in historical dramas. Interestingly enough, this drama was also one of the earliest long form CDramas that I had ever watched.
Tbh, what works for me, may not work for you.
Cannot recommend recent CDramas because I have not watched any recently. However, would like to recommend two CMinis: Dominion and Devotion and A Dream Like the True Love.
If you mean Ji Hyeok, then yes, LOL. Not him dismissing his intense feelings for Da Rim during his amnesiac phase,…
TMAI?! Da Rim realised that pursuing him against his will was harmful and decided to give up after exhausting all that she could have possibly done. His amnesiac phase was a callback to how he had been before he fell for Da Rim and to force that Ji hyeok with his convictions and motivations to be with her would have been cruel to the both of them.
Come on, the writer might have butchered the main love story in the middle but they still had far superior chemistry…
They left it to imagination. I am so glad the drama didn't force them together. I'd like to believe that they'd get together in the future because he didn't seem against the idea of her becoming his girlfriend. There was an easy familiarity between them.

Ooh, so Hotelier is decent enough. Good to know.
