This is how an adaptation should be like, not a copy-paste with a local setting and local actors.They adapted…
Of course it shouldn't be a copypaste. But the least they should do is retain the characteristics and personality of the main character right? A famous and beloved character at that. People are bound to be dissapointed. Any fan of any show would be disappointed if they changed their favorite character's personality in an adaptation. Idc about any of the other changes they make. Heck they literally turned a fatherly figure manager into a woman and i have no problem with that.
if you love daimon that much go and watch original doctor x. dont keep ranting here. this is a serious noir remake…
i can't critique a show now because you don't like it? I never said the show was bad. I said the main character was not similar to the original version. It is indeed unprofessional for a doctor to dress up like that in every part of the world. That's the whole point. She's supposed to look unprofessional and like a bar hostess (as per the original where they mention it again and again) , that's why they underestimate her and her skills. She was in a sexist environment and she was rebelling. It's stupid to change the core of what her personality is like. They did not sexualise her at all in the original. In fact, there was nothing sexual about her personality. She liked to dress up , that's all. And Michiko Daimon was broke too lol
aw man cmon i was so excited to watch this. The main appeal of Doctor X was her personality in the original. Her fun, confident, idgaf attitude. She is too awkward in this. Half the blame lies in the wardrobe department. The actress is literally drowning in her clothes sometimes and the clothes are too boring. She's a petite lady too and they just make her look stiff and awkward. ATLEAST GIVE HER THE ICONIC HIGH HEELS DAMNNNN. I'm almost 100% convinced giving her high heels would fix everything about this remake :'((( They seem to have removed her iconic surgical scissor hold too :'( I love Michiko Daimon too much so i'm just gonna pretend this isn't a remake and continue .
some plots are best left as a webtoon, am i right?
It's one of those dramas you can watch where you just want to turn off your brain and need something to pass the time while laying in bed sick. That's all there is to it. I don't understand the hype for it. Hopefully it picks up in the end .
Thinking about the competition pisses me off too. What kind of king stakes an entire country's future on a cooking contest without proper, unbiased judges?? So unserious lmao . Lazy storytelling too. If this was a somewhat serious drama, and he wasn't the ml , i would honestly support the villians. He's not good to his people or his country. I can't even call him a tyrant because he's not tyrannical either lol
it's finally getting exciting. i was getting bored. Honestly i like it but there's so much missed potential. the story is too linear and simple and gives me early 2010's drama vibes. lots of repeated scenes too with all the imaginative food tasting . Could be so much better.
Just watching "Are You The One" not my 1st WCR drama, but she has been reminding me of another actress…
I can see the Liv Tyler resemblance. Although the first time i watched her in a drama i almost mistook her for Liu Yifei. They could play twins in a drama and i wouldn't doubt it for a second
This was perfect. 10/10 . The first episode seemed really off but it only became better and better as i continued watching. A comforting, medium paced drama that you won't get bored of. The ML is funny af btw. The comedy was worth it. Don't let the bad reviews deter you.
It fell off so bad at the end my god. It's like the writer got so sick and tired of it that they just wrote whatever just to finish it. The final episodes had no intensity at all and seemed like filler with bad lines and stupid love confessions??? in the final battle , they could've at least tried to get us emotionally invested. but it just felt like background noise. it started off so good whyyyyyyy
Why does everyone find 2ml annoying? Maybe because i watched A dream within a dream before this, this 2ml seems super mild when compared to Chu Guihong . Oh man even thinking about Chu Guihong makes me want to reach into the screen and strangle him😭. Atleast Chu Zhao doesn't think he's a saint while doing bad things. He knows he's a manipulative schemer and moreover actually does admire our fl. It seems as though she reminds him of his mom. He doesn't seem like a huge morally corrupt person either. Just jealous of our ML and hates him because he's his love rival lol
kang ji yun is actually the coolest fl ever. she's confessing like its nothing and initiating everything. i love her sm. if it was me i'd be an over thinker and hide myself in a hole out of embarrassment . truly wish i was like her
I love Michiko Daimon too much so i'm just gonna pretend this isn't a remake and continue .
