Yibo

It's as if she's afraid of making an 'ugly face'. Many models suffer from this problem, they're used to being pretty all the time. But they are hired coz they are famous and it automatically brings viewership.
oh damn! Bae is another actress I don't look at to be able to watch her dramas
There's a chinese actress Angelababy. I like her in variety shows coz she is herself but she has only a couple of expressions and wide eyes that she uses in every drama of hers.

I was very sure you would be bombarded with hate messages for being honest with your views. Thankfully not many people here lol

The drama was so good before the leap happened and then it felt like the writers were changed.

For a woman who thinks her boyfriend left her to enjoy a family trip right after her miscarriage, the FL behaved as if she was guilty of something, How I wish she came back as a tough woman, who didn't behave like a thief in front of the ML. At times it felt like she wanted the ML to recognize her while she pretended to be someone else.

The ML on the other hand had totally changed his tunes. His mom hadn't allowed him to meet the girl who had just miscarried but now he had no issues smiling and being loving towards his mom. Maybe it's a cultural thing but I didn't like it. And he was stupid enough to think it was the FL's fault for leaving after the miscarriage instead of wondering what must have made her leave in such a condition.

As usual, the ML would grab the FL's wrist and drag her and she would allow it. I wonder if even little girls think it's romantic. And as is usual in k-dramas Da Hae wasn't punished.
The end felt like they were ordered to wrap up asap. Suddenly the ML says it was his fault for not protecting the ML and all is well except for both moms not wanting their children's happiness.

Regarding the acting, LSY was not good, especially after what Yoon had delivered. Namkoong was not bad at all. But the younger actors had great chemistry which went missing post leap.

same here!! I want to watch Arthdal coz I'm hearing gr8 things about it but Habaek has scared me. Fans do a great disservice when they can't accept valid criticism. This is why bad actors don't put an effort coz they know their blind fans will accept crap.

I put Habaek on pause coz I'm struggling so much. There's a scene where she has to show that the character fears going in the water but her expressions were so confusing!

and I'll just erase it from my memory lol

These are dramas with paper thin plots. I watched another one 'stay with me'. Constant breakups when the adults could have just talked.

I started watching 'bride of habaek' and her expressions or the lack of expressions make me want to quit but the other actors are so good that I'm trying to ignore her. There are some chinese actresses as well who keep getting leading roles coz they look good.
Many people get confused between looking good and acting. Modelling and acting are different.

I skip propaganda stuff even if my favs are in it. But maybe their target audience does watch and gets brainwashed otherwise why would the ccp try so hard... knew someone would reply to you with 'you and your western media' LOL

A good drama is one where you are disappointed it ended. Same goes for this one. Some of these short c-dramas are so much better than those big budget ones with bad actors.

The FL was tough but never cold or rude. Something that many c/k dramas forget while creating a strong FL.
The leads never faltered from their aim, no silly break ups. The FL took her revenge without trying to pretend she is a saint. No forgiveness for the wicked. The ML was clear about his love for the FL, he learnt well from her and both of them were on the same page.

I wonder if they'll get another season coz I would love to see the leads live a happy, peaceful life.

Saw the tag of rape and immediately put it in the 'not interested' category. Only perverts think rape is romance and that the insect deserves any love or happy ending.

And by the 34the episode, the tables have turned. The ML wants the FL to nurse him round the clock, wants her to leave her job and when she doesn't run around him all the time he makes a scene out of it, embarrasses her in front of their friends and then throws her out of the house in the middle of the night. I look at the ML and I only think - rich man's privilege.
But, the FL just doesn't say out her feelings. It's easy to get tired when the person doesn't fight back or say what's on their mind. Not everyone's a mind reader.

I don't expect the FL to keep laughing like a maniac but I'm on the 19th episode and 99.99% times she has a stuck up constipated face. She sucks energy out of every scene. I know she is poor, has troubles but people learn how to enjoy even in the worst of times.
The ML keeps getting pushed away by her but keeps chasing her which is not logical at all.
Then there's Yu Hua who is in a one-sided romance, has been rejected but wasting her time on the guy. Can't blame the guy coz it's her who doesn't have a problem being a doormat pretending it's love.

But I keep watching coz of Elvis lol

I dropped a modern c-drama 'If Paris Downcast' where the FL kept breaking up with the ML in every few episodes, she's a lawyer but has no brains. Will trust everyone in the world but not the ML. He too doesn't leave his mom who keeps slapping and abusing the FL.

Then I started 'never gone' but again the FL is soooo cold. I need to re-watch some good c-drama to calm down lol

oh damn! I wanted to watch this drama coz of Zhang but your review has scared me. I don't even wanna try such crap where FL is a doormat, keeps enabling bad ppl coz she wants to prove she is a saint. And from what I understand, even the ML isn't that great :(

Ep29 and another girl from the ML's past pops up. He is definitely a red flag. Even if he has no feelings for these women, he is never strict with them. He lets them cross the limit. If a guy doesn't want then no woman will be able to step in his personal space. But we want the FL to be understanding or go fight with these girls.

On the 22nd episode, Shawn is fab BUT so far the ML keeps having secrets from the FL, the FL has already been hurt in the past by him but they've somehow got together again. Now whenever he gets caught he tries to explain but she doesn't have the patience to listen.
Every time the leads are together or about to, another misunderstanding. Seems like the writer had no clue what to do with them. I'm skipping so many scenes now!!

But there's something I love a lot. Everyone who knows the ML knows how much he loves the FL. If only their romance was dealt well..

Do you remember why he was a red flag? I want to watch a good drama of Shawn's

Exactly! Fans think their fav should remain celibate and be the best human being possible. They'll never hold their politicians accountable like this coz we know what'll happen.
So easy to ruin an actor's career by 'scandal' or 'tax evasion' as if these are the worst crimes possible -_-

I was like, that one must have been added to justify the comedy genre lol

Some how reached ep6 and suddenly the FL isn't mad at the ML. She's smiling like a fool when the ML buys her breakfast even though in the previous scene she was still angry!
Either the writer was trying to be over smart or some scenes have been deleted.

I'm carrying on coz of Shawn but if the drama doesn't get better, I'll drop.

every day when I come online I have this fear that another of my fav c-actor got so famous that antis or the powers have destroyed him...
