this was supposed to be a dating show so what are they “competing” for? i dont understand this show anymore. and why does no one talk just because you cant share your age or job doesnt mean you cant discuss your hobbies and passions and dreams lol. some dating show
at this point anything park shin hye is in i cant watch. i get that she was a child actor but that doesnt make her a good actor… shes always been stiff in her roles. she doesnt have much of a range and ive just never felt much emotion from her. and the kissing scenes… no
im somehow very disappointed. its tagged romance music and comedy but those all took a major backseat to the more dark parts of the story. the happiest parts were the last five minutes of the entire show. i dont know, it was lovely but there wasnt really any romance, and there were hints of comedy. i dont think the darker subplot with the dad had to be so important.
im starting to think these super dramatic shows aren’t for me, i just cant suspend my disbelief. if she got a second chance at life, why waste it getting revenge instead of living? why is the guy so willing to marry her when he gets nothing out of it? i just keep questioning things. i have to go back to my more realistic dramas lol
hes the only one in the family that doesnt remember their past, and hes taking this whole high horse of “we didnt do anything wrong we should get our names back” that will cause danger to his entire family and those around them. and why, because they have fake names? because they stole a family’s identity to get away from a psychopathic abuser?? whats this obsession of trying to get their names back at the RISK of his father literally maybe killing his whole family. i just cant see his side here. and its really making me dislike him, if he can choose this over the literal safety of his family that- by the way- chose to spare him from his past, i cant see how ill forgive that.
something that bothers me- and its not new in kdrama land- is the presence of another language being absolutely butchered. other dramas also use russian for villains for whatever reason and its always terrible. but in this drama its a main focal point so youd think theyd try a bit harder. at least the russian characters are actually russian. how hard would it be though to just dub over the characters so my ears wouldnt have to suffer? cdramas do it all the time.
there are bad dramas, like heirs or boys over flowers. they are a product of their time so i understand. but this? this is somehow worse. its like the writers and directors are trying so hard and somehow making it worse. the writing is awful, the acting is??? so unbelievably bad. what is this show i don’t understand how something can be so bad?
i get that there has to be an antagonist but why is it kihos father? i mean what would the reason for him to still be looking for kiho?? we have the president lee guy that sucks already. i just don’t understand the direction the writes are going in with kihos dad. like is there some kind of murder plot or what exactly is his purpose
something i find interesting is that all the signs of MJ being depressed are there. i know the idea of mental health isnt very big in korea, but its clear from things she says she needs a therapist or perhaps medication if her condition is bad enough. if she had a therapist or doctor she might be told some of her thoughts are completely normal, like when she says she wants to squish cute things or eat them. thats a known phenomenon and with some research its clear. but she doesnt know that so others around her would find it disturbing. it makes me think of how different life is depending on where you live and what is “normal” there. i wonder if they will go about helping her find happiness, whether they will just put her in a relationship and say she is cured or if they will actually show her making life changes.
im having some qualms about the idea of KJ and TH being in a relationship. on one hand i agree with THs sister in the sense that, KJ said she wouldnt date a man with kids and now she likes a man with a kid. she isnt ready to be a mom, and for TH to date her seriously is very inconsiderate to his daughter who was hurt by KJs words already. i dont think it would be fair to bring a mother figure into her life without consulting her first. at the same time i dont agree with how much blame and pressure THs sister is putting on KJ because KJ is allowed to have preferences, if she doesnt want to date a divorced dad with a kid she doesnt have to and shes allowed to talk about that. it’s unfortunate that TH was there with his daughter that day, but KJ shouldnt be constantly blamed for vocalizing her opinion and indirectly hurting their feelings. overall i feel like their relationship just doesnt really work out, despite how cute it is. realistically it hurts the child most to have a step mom who doesnt respect and care for her, and KJ isnt accepted by the family. perhaps this will all work out in forgiveness but as of right now im just really feeling for the daughter in all of this.
Nah the sister is pretty understandable as well. Of course she is still annoying, people in real life can be very…
i feel like i dont understand her because everyone is entitled to their own opinions. i wouldnt date a divorced dad with a kid either and KJ is allowed to vocalize that to her friend. it’s unfortunate that TH and his daughter were there but the amount of blame and pressure his sister is putting on KJ isnt really valid for me, even though i get how protective she is of THs daughter
i dont think its just the character, but also the set up of the story. the vibe seems like it will end up more negative and melodramatic rather than healing. i hope im wrong because ive been anticipating this forever
