Autumn is my fav season so I understand the pain. We already had snow going on 🤡
Concerts are ridiculously not my thing, and what you described sounds like nightmare to me 🤣🤣 good to know you had fun tho.

End of the year paperwork is trash. I mean personal one is fine, but we also sum up the year at work and omg... i am exhausted even thinking about it.

That wedding got me 🙂🤡 There are definitely better BLs out there 🔥 it wasn't really bad, but it was painfully mediocre 🤣

As for me, busy with work 😭 And how you are holding up? :)

added sexual assault as a tag, now it just has to be approved. It will be under spoiler tho, as all triggers related tags are hidden under spoiler.

I gave in, but with full inform consent compared to Shu Lang 🤡🤣

I am so fucking ready for this mess. Fan Xiao honestly worse than Hua Yong 😅 That scene where he was molesting You Shu Lang while talking to himself as if they were having conversation? Delulu red flag omfg 🤣🤣🤣

I do like that You Shu Lang is not this wallflower naive delicate feminine pushover. Dude is spicy in his own way - the way he beat up that dude who was drugging girls 🔥🔥🔥🔥Pure dude is surrounded by trash - be it his current or future partner 🤡

I'm giving pass to both ML and FL for their questionable actions 🤣 I mean it's either both or none. If her bad external circumstances validate her behavior, so does his.

Kano's frustration after work is so relatable. Maybe for different reasons, but we all have these days when you just so annoyed with external circumstances and what happened in the office/work you just want to scream and punch a pillow 🤣

But also baby boy does not understand work at all. What do you mean you will go alone coz it's your personal responsibility. NO ONE GIVES A FUCK ABOUT YOUR GUILT, it's more advantageous for the company to have someone more skilled and senior in sale to go with you to make sure the apology will go as well as it can get, so you will keep the contract 🙂

Baby boy, just go open your own company if you are like that 🙄

Also, he better not stay in that parallel reality/dream/whatever it is for too long, because I need that real love story between him and Ogami happen with good detail, since Ogami is obviously completely in love with him in his reality too 🤣

So after episodes 5-6 of Discount Secret Relationships fluff edition, I am still team bestie.

All 3 are frustrating for just "keeping their crush a secret" and never doing shit to get ML, and only now out of a blue all 3 starting to get their shit together, but I think bestie has the best "reasoning" behind it. He would not be the first one to be scared of confessing coz he might lose the best friend. Better keep him as a friend than not have him in my life at all type of a deal.

Yeon Sang technically romantically could not do shit since he was the team leader/manager in the company so that's weird HR issue, but that does not mean he had to literally play Cold Indifferent Male Lead the whole time 🤣 You can still be kind and helpful to your crush who also works under you, without making it romantic.

Haram tho, what the fuck my dude 🤣 You literally were ready to confess with the flowers, but saw him ONCE with his bestie and gave up? Instead of trying to do it again next time when he is alone? What even.

Unless, I just read a fun theory on tumblr that Ha Ram was from the start into Bestie not ML. The flowers? Wanted to give them to Bestie. Saying he likes ML? To see if Bestie has feelings for ML. Not mad about this idea. The tension is tensioning during the sparing scenes.

I still think Team Leader is legit the weakest love interest and do not want ML to end up with him. Truth to be told, I just want Bestie to be happy 🤣

I think it's one of the better adaptations. It's not 1:1 but it's really close to the source material and what I like the most is the fact they are not trying to make it more "realistic" and explain stuff that do not need explanation for the plot to progress (like how the cafe can even allow random club to occupy so much of their space and how the decor is even made, created, paid for etc). They still keep it whimsical. But they also balance well the youth and adult perspective. It's good.

This is one of the best adaptations of webtoon we've got in years. It's fine to not like it, but it does stay true to it's source material 🔥

What I love about spirit fingers is the fact it's mostly youth romance, but it has such a good and realistic portrayal of adulthood and its perspective despite the whimsical presentation. I love the scenes when the adult spirit fingers sit down and talk alone without the teens and we see a completely different perspective - both of them as characters, but also plot itself.

The most complex and interesting relations barley existed and the easiest and most straightforward ones were highlighted 🤡

cliches became cliches for a reason - they were used a lot because they work. You just have to know who to deliver, and so far they are doing great job at that 🔥💖

Cannot wait for next episode, especially after that preview hahaha

yes this! I do want to see one or two more episodes of him pinning, but damn after that game on ad I'd kill for your scenario to come true 🤣🤣🤣

That's a random topic for a rom-com, but the way they present the laws around ownership of property in Korea is so fucking confusing. Like... A person steals the deed of the house and now it's "theirs" and they can sell it... for real? Wouldn't deed also name all the persons who have stakes in the property and wouldn't taking loans or selling it needed the consent from all of the owners? 🤣

as for the show THIS IS SUCH A FUCKING ROM-COM I CANNOT 🔥
In the best way possible. Logic? Left the room.
scratch that out, it was not there in the first place and I love it.

Not her casually cheating on her not real husband 🤣
Not him getting jealous of her not real husband.
Not the second female lead falling for second male lead and being ready to be a step mom day one.

Possessive male lead with angst and pinning? Yes please. "Until you pay that debt, you're mine Ms. Go Da Rim" 🔥
But the way they make him such a goofball at the same time - bless. Why fist fight loan sharks when you can just pay them off? Bless that brain.

Good hearted, cute, hardworking female lead, who also actually has brain and is good at her job? One that inspires people, is driven and helpful? I'm just so happy here 💖💖💖

And the chemistry? Yes 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

not gonna lie, the review a bit confusing since you actually rated the show 8 not 10 by the end 🤡
I think if someone decides to write on going review, they should at least update it when they finish the show 😅

it started good, but went downhill quickly, after episode 4 😅

She said herself that she felt guilty..for whatever reason. < honestly do not get it. And how nice she was to him in last episode when he fucked himself over why trying to ruin them... like girl what are you even doing?

but here it was filler on filler moments that added absolutely nothing to the actual plot or the character development of the leads. < this! it honestly felt like 80% of scree time was spent on filler scenes 🤣🤡

As always great review. I knew we gonna agree since we ranted together the whole journey 😅
But also, you did go full on nice analysis compared to me 🙂😅

You`d be wrong. There is a very crucial part of `Because This is My First Life` that is missing in `Would You Marry Me` and that is THE DEPTH < this. The whole second half felt so... empty 🥲

The way she lets her ex walk all over her was so annoying. < this... that would only make sense in two situations: she still has feelings for him, or he was actually abusive and she is scared of him. Which none of these happened here 😅

More or less similar thoughts. I loved first 4 episodes, then it got progressively worse with each new ep... They focused and gave screen time to so many unnecessary plotlines and characters 🥲
