Kept waiting for a twist that never happens, it's almost like it was created with some twist/higher stake in mind but removed at the last minute so you're left with a fairly meh thriller that has so much potential...
I really enjoyed this, my only issue is that it has 40 episodes and somehow ending still felt a bit rushed, this remains consistent in quite a few cdramas, they have so many episodes but ending always feels rushed...
what about the FL and the cheating with 2ML not very light
Are you sure there's actual cheating in this?? i'm strongly against watching any show where any of the main leads cheat unless cheating is in the name of the drama like "cheat on me if you dare" or "my wife is cheating on me this week" like i dropped "the fabulous" because the relationship starts off from cheating so i highly doubt i'd enjoy something where the leads cheat, i'm going to assume it was a misunderstanding....can you let me know the episode this happens, seems like it's time for me to rewatch this..
Yes it has all the cliches but i thoroughly enjoyed it, even more than i did compared to the show that brought be here "The Love You Give Me" which has the same leads.
On episode 29 and currently seriously considering dropping this cause of the maid situation, like the main lead has spent most of this show calling Xia Shu childish but feels like she should also be calling her self childish cause how has this maid shown so many negative behavioural signs and you still helping and setting her up with ppl around you and lets not even forget the fact that the 2nd FL does most of the work in their cases together.
This was amazing, i really enjoyed this, i like how grounded in reality this was, like it wasn't your typical fluffy romance drama but it didn't have annoying/unnecessary misunderstandings and moaning but going to admit you may need to be in the mood for something like this as it feels more like a slow burn.
I would've rated it 10/10 but there was 1 or 2 episodes in the early half that felt like 2hr long instead an 1hr, also i went into it expecting a fake relationship due to the description i read from another website as well as the title, personally don't think what i watched suited the "Fake it till you make it" title, other characters may have done enough to earn the fake it till you make it title but the main leads never did any faking that warranted this title, will give it 9/10 as this doesn't impact the drama itself.
The last 5mins was a breath of fresh air, but not really sure how i felt about the drama as a whole, it left me wanting more i.e. it felt like it had way more potential than what we got, this is likely due to the short amount of episode.
I thought this was really good even though i watched it using terrible AI subs, this is the first time in a very…
the ending, yes there are no good guys but she went through all that trouble of saving the school kids from eating the bad cookies only to still end up being the Chef (i assume the last scene of the lil sister seeing someone showing symptoms of overdose means her older sis became the chef ), seems a bit pointless.
I thought this was really good even though i watched it using terrible AI subs, this is the first time in a very long time a drama that isn't 150+ ep long has subbing issues and especially when it's not a bad drama, gave off Extracurricular vibes, My only issue is...
Still to this day can't understand why this has such a high rating or hype, I absolutely loath when a character is written as intelligent then proceed to ensure they make the stupidest decisions every single time this was the FL throughout the series and ppl are blaming her acting when she was basically setup to fail..
This was simply amazing, you see i typically get ready to throw out plot and not read too much into the tiny details when watching short dramas with only 20mins or less episode but this was beyond my expectation, it had a mature theme with a perfect pacing, couldn't ask for more - probably could go as far as saying this maybe my all time fav short drama.
Damm...so much potential just wasted. Any pure romance where the mains don't confess until the every end is like an instant -3 and another -2 for the so called main lead not being able to confess by herself without any external factors.
I can't blame you but it applies to dramas from every country.Shorter dramas are easier to stomach.Japanese are…
Ohh don't get me wrong i'm not saying there are no boring dramas in every country, my issue is watching this made me reflect on the few Chinese drama i had seen which made me realise that Chinese dramas (that i saw) come off a bit muted i.e. funny scenes where never too funny and emotional scenes where never too much either.
This opinion is from watching Boss & Me, Put your head on my shoulder, LoveO2O, My sunshine & Falling into your smile - what i got from all these was that the quality of episodes remain consistent i.e. you don't really have anything bad to say about them but on other hand there's not a lot of memorable scenes that makes me feel like they could be considered amazing based on the ratings that they have.
But i agree being a fan of one of the casts may have made me get into the dramas more and i'll give "I Belonged To You 2023 " a try....
Wow, i'm actually shocked by the low rating because i really enjoyed it, this was my 1st Thai drama so didn't have any expectations apart from thinking it looked interesting from the netflix trailer so this maybe why i enjoyed it more than some ppl here did.
But honestly i loved everything about it, from the camera work to even the subtitles for example someone gets ripped into cue the dramatic music then the person doing the subtitles decides to add "dramatic sting" which i found funny. i have to say i was instantly reminded of the handmaiden, it definitely feels like someone got inspired by it.
This was my 5th C-drama and it made me give up on them as a whole because how can i be 15 episodes deep into it and realise i didn't care about a single character, yes it has lots of sweet swoony moments but nothing happens that made me feel any strong emotions throughout the entire 15 episodes i watched.
I understand it's a slow burn but i should be heavily invested in what happens to the characters by the halfway mark.
