Im so happy to see autism representation in a kdrama.
ikr even in Jinxed At First, there's an autistic character and they incorporate him very naturally in the story, he's not kept in the spotlight and his struggles aren't exaggerated or drawn out... he's just a part of their big family and that's it. They speak out about autism very subtly and it isn't smashed into your face.
older man/younger woman i saw somewhere he was 26 and she was 21(in drama life)(
Just my opjnion, but i dont think five years is much... true older man/younger woman is like Goblin, Young Lady and Gentleman, etc. And the drama should draw attention to it.
Or maybe im just confusing it with the "Age Gap" tag lol
The summary is slightly misleading. They made too big a deal of things that get resolved pretty fast and don't talk about the actual mysteries. The FL isn't exactly a deity and the two of them dont seem to have a large enough age gap to tag it as older man/younger woman... idk
For now, I'm really enjoying it. I don't really mind logic holes as long as the story and characters are fun, so this drama has me addicted. The entire cast has nice chemistry, and I like the variety of characters. There are lots of personalities that aren't cut and dried, black and white. I like them one minute, hate them the next, and then go back to pondering what their true intentions are. The dark stuff almost made me give up at first(i was expecting a romcom with some melodrama) but then they introduced the supporting Seodong Market cast and I could instantly relax, seeing all those familiar ahjummas and ahjussis ðŸ˜
Reminds me a little of Legend of the Blue Sea... FL is hilariously adorable but ML isn't a tsundere. It's nice to see someone so strong with a traumatic story, but who still smiles, is kindhearted, acts silly, laughs and interacts with everyone. That describes both main leads, actually. The mystery arc is kinda dark but they manage to keep the overall story fun and lighthearted because the mains don't let the circumstances around them stop them from being happy dorks together. There's lots of really witty comedy and both actors pull it off well.
A Business Proposal, From Now On Showtime and the currently airing Jinxed At First are all really funny dramas. FNOS and JAF combine it with fantasy and some dark stuff but they're predominantly hilarious romantic comedies. Big adorably dorky casts and loads of physical anf dialogue comedy.
Maybe you're just not searching for the right genres. This genre and style of comedy is very distinct especially in Kdramas. I didn't even have to watch the first ep to know what it's like. It's my favorite style of comedy(more physical and over-the-top, makes me laugh till I can't laugh anymore). But not everyone likes that style.
Maybe if you tell us the type of stuff you like in your shows, or your favorite shows... other drama addicts here could help!
Are there any more dramas from category 'Makes you feel alive again'??
Depends on what makes you feel alive ;) Stories that get your heart racing or slice of life shows that give you a "life is beautiful" feeling in the end?
This follows the same style of old classic kdrama romcoms - the kind which shot kdramas into fame in the first…
Oh cool. Better watch FOE before Dark Hole because FOE has more melodramatic elements mixed in with the psychological thriller aspects, while Dark Hole is straight up hardcore :)
why would you rate it like that without even finishing it?
I loved the ML also but he gave her enough reason to doubt him. Very few people would have stuck through that far, and she still stayed till then. I thoight she was believable and realistic till the end.
I'm usually into the dark and horror side of drama and movies and after my girlfriend persuaded me to watch, i…
This follows the same style of old classic kdrama romcoms - the kind which shot kdramas into fame in the first place. Stuff like 30 But 17, While You Were Sleeping, Suspicious Partner... they combine physical and dialogue comedy really really well. From Now On, Showtime is another good recent drama.
why would you rate it like that without even finishing it?
I thought the wife was one of the strongest, most loyal and mature leads ever. That doesn't mean she's invincible, but she made very good decisions and was absolutely believable as a character.
waaaaa how am I going to survive this break? I'm glad it's not over but I'm really going to miss waiting for eps every week... Season 1 was awesome. Jang Sung Kyu, the PDs, and the VJs managed to make every episode educational and hilariously entertaining. Love them allll
neither of them are tippy-top exemplary actors (imo) so we can jot that down. one is a lot worse than the other.…
when you commented on Yoona's acting, which dramas did you use as reference? K2? Her character didn't have much to do, anyway. Also, that drama is six years old, so I think I'll be looking forward to both Big Mouth and this one with more anticipation - hopefully, her acting has improved.
You are the first person I've ever heard say this. People usually complain that he always plays a genius, too-good-to-be-true…
He was far from soft in Pinocchio and While You Were Sleeping... sure he was dorky but he wasn't naive or stupid. He was silly at home and in front of his loved ones but he was a professional in court. And Pinocchio was so angsty.
