i was looking for noona romances and you have created the perfect list. i have onl watched Butterfly Sleep so I have so many things to watch now. thank you, i hope you keep on adding shows

You were right to drop it when you did, your observations are spot on. I did drop it only after their kiss, just to be sure, but that made it all more disappointing

As a fellow Ha Ji Won fan not only I agree with your rating but with the reasons behind it as well. Nothing worked for the love story, making me wish they really split up in the end, out of punishment for the sheer torment of us watching this show. The main actor did nothing resembling acting in love and the 2nd fl was so cliché I could and did cringe. But worst of all there's no payoff, no grand moment or emotional crescendo that justifies them being idiots for almost two decades

the premise looks interesting. anyone seen this movie?

exactly.

and they are adorable

I Need Romance 3 is such a good drama, kim so yeon is in her most charming and the chemistry with Sung Joon is fire

i enjoyed it till the end and i hope you do too

i didn't like the ending, i wanted her character to grow more

in your rewrite, i'd also make kim ha neul's character chase her dreams and be on top and be with the sweet baseball guy

i don't know why this caricature of a woman is always present in cdramas but i'd like to talk to the people responsible. the protagonist is already great, there's no need to elevate her by comparing her with a collection of sexist stereotypes wrapped in a woman's form

your passionate review makes me want to start it to see if it's as bad as you describe

'While cinderella finds happiness in glory, this drama shows happiness in ordinary things.' well said, my friend. i hadn't thought about that but it's true and it's another reason i love love love this drama

for a simple drama, Lee Ji Ah infuses vulnerabily and emotion that make it touching. i cried in that scene where they eat together

i only meant that in PH because she's the lead for like 50 eps, she is given a lot of material to show her talent, she gets to be angry, loving, badass, vulnerable, vengeful and devasted. still, now that you say that i may watch her scenes in my mister too

Happy birthday godess🎉

I feel uniquely qualified to answer this cause I love both One Spring Night and Something in the Rain. In short, yes, I think you should finish SITR because a) a lot happens in the last episodes, no more slow moving b) it's not an idealistic ending (that's why some people don't love it) but it's a realistic one that's true to the characters and offers hope

i said something along the lines of your 'if the actress doesn't do intimate scenes, she shouldn't pick mature scripts' and got me in trouble with her fans. i regret nothing cause it's so true. the reason this series felt empty is that it was a soap opera without the romance holding together
i think they were trying to emulate Su Ryeon's revenge from the enthose, but where Su Ryeon was intelligent, vulnerable and loving, Heesun is just nice to watch

i agree and thank you for providing the context to show how modern korean society is prejudiced towards women and why a relationship such as the one deicted is even more meaningful

you're exactly right and i like how you highlighted that the value in this drama is derived from avoiding the tiring cliches and forging a new path. it was a genuine story that deeply impacted me
