Where is this article copied from? In which country is dating called a scandal? Do fangirls really think their fav actor will remain a virgin or fall in love with them?
I watched him in the first 3 epi of 'imagine me without you', he is so cute!! I wish all episodes were subbed coz that drama touched my heart. Can't believe the story is of a real life couple.
Writers finding innovative ideas to show the ML sleep with another woman and make it seem normal. Give him multiple personalities so that he can enjoy life and have a perfect excuse for it. The fact that it doesn't even bother him that he slept with the other chick is quite telling. The actor isn't good either so I wonder how soon it'll be that I drop this lakorn as well.
No movie is perfect and the same goes for Ip Man. For example, the editing of the action scene between Ip and 10 karatekas was not good at all. Some other fight scenes were very well shot and edited. The movie tries to tell us how great he was but forgets that he too was a human being and had flaws. But the movie was meant for the Chinese, and his fans who would want to see only the good side of the man so I get it...
Don't expect truth from the movie, it's like a fairytale. We don't get to see his connection with the Kuomintang and why he left for Hong Kong or his opium addiction or later about his mistress. We know such a movie wouldn't be allowed to even be made. I'll be honest here, I haven't watched other movies based on him, hopefully they didn't repeat the same mistakes and were closer to the truth. If one is easily swayed by reviews that can see no fault then you won't see them either.
This is crap. There's no other way to describe it. Only in lakorns I've seen men threaten women with rape when they don't obey the guy. Only lakorns pass off rape as normal or romantic. Now I'll this BL to the list as well. Dropping after this 2nd episode. I wish I had read the comments here, so writing it in detail so hopefully someone else would be saved from this shit.
Only if you have amnesia or a fetish for rape will you brush it off when in the 2nd episode Tak warns a girl dressed as a ghost, 'do not come closer or I'll rape you'! Doesn't matter if the subs try to tell us that he didn't mean rape but 'doing something sexually by force' coz the girl then dares him to rape her, he does so and she enjoys it. Her moans reach Tak's group of friends roaming in the forest, 1 of the boys now wants to rape a ghost and the single girl in the group is quite happy with all this. When the rapist joins the group, the girl and other boys cheer him on saying how awesome he is. Rape is so funny and such a brave act, isn't it?
I'm sure there are people out there who think this is entertainment but I hope they'll grow up someday. There are BL writers/makers out there who know they can hire bad actors or write nonsense coz many viewers only want to see 2 guys kissing or have sex and do not mind such 'minute details'.
Pat with his constipated face & Jaab with his expressionless model face. Beautiful features but bad acting. They…
I think this is coz the casting people know that most of the audience will care only about the looks and will overlook the lack of acting talent. Many get confused between someone being a good model and a good actor.
Then there are fans who'll claim that a certain actor is new so should be forgiven. This is a drama not a school project, train your actors before you unleash them upon us lol
Why are lakorn women so unhinged? I had to pause at ep3, the women were screaming, slapping, fighting, making weird faces. This is not entertaining from any angle.
On episode 21 and the FL has become f*king annoying. She has lost her memory and it seems her marbles as well. People around her keep saying her name and she keeps getting violent with them, not using her brains to even think that maybe it could be her name. Why do dramas have to make strong FLs into dumbos by the end?
The FL tries to act cute but ends up looking mentally challenged. But maybe this is what the target audience likes. The ML's acting isn't great either. In a scene when the FL realizes when she'll not be able to time travel any more, the guy has no expressions, he just mouths the dialogs.
In an episode the ML threatens to beat the FL with a rattan while his mom threatens to do the same with the slaves. Good old days indeed when women and slaves had the same status. In a later episode he does hit her with a stick and the FL who has been brought up in modern times has no issues with it. She keeps jumping around him like a monkey(his words not mine) and doesn't even teach him how to respect women.
The ML enjoys all the attention from the other woman, then realizes FL won't be sharing him so cuts off ties with the innocent girl who was busy dreaming of her future but he gives sermons to the FL how women should behave around men. This ML was lying in bed being fed by the other girl coz he was hit in the head. Poor disabled boy. BS. The ML got attracted to the FL coz she was totally different from the women around him but till the end kept ordering her to become something she was not. The FL too came across as a girl who likes to be ordered around so she deserved this treatment.
Near the end, it got even worse. The ML went and stood by those rapist MLs who get a happy ending with the victim. The FL starts missing her mother and wants to time jump but the ML forces her to stay. Someone should separate this man-child from his mom, then we'll see how long he lasts. The FL is such a pathetic moron that she has no issues that she is basically a hostage and is happy when the ML claims he loves her. He is able to see the FL's crying mom through the mirror, but doesn't tell the FL fearing she'll want to again meet her family and friends. Wonder who thought such a ML will seem romantic to any sane woman.
It's not even an old drama that can hide behind the excuse that these things were acceptable a few decades back. Maybe the writers smartly showed how a horrible nasty man can trap a stupid girl and make her his puppet. Then praise her a bit for working hard, give her some jewelry and she'll do his bidding.
Just like there's a rating system for movies to tell us if it's fit for kids or not, likewise such dramas should mention that it's not fit for grownups. I somehow managed the torture for 10 minutes before dropping it.
I'm on the 6th episode and it's so disappointing. The FL is an adult and yet behaves like a child. Was this drama written to cater to little girls? There are more than 60 epi left, wonder how long I can last.
Typical story of ML approaching FL with a motive, but falls in love with her. FL later finds out the truth and understandably is hurt and lashes out at him, demands that he buzz off. Then the over-confident but weak FL gets in trouble and the ML has to come to her rescue. The editing was weird, seemed like scenes were cut off. The only plus point is that the movie was very beautifully shot.
The leads didn't have chemistry, and FL kept crying in every episode. Even in the last scene when the leads are together and at last have a kiss it was so bland. The actress looked so disinterested. It is an outdated drama, didn't age well. Hopefully no one takes inspiration from it and tries to recreate this drag fest.
I started with the present season (11) and now going back to watch all the seasons. This show is so much fun, I don't think I've ever laughed so much in my life.
I'm watching her in 'Miss Gu..' and she is far far better than many c-actresses who keep landing lead roles without much talent. Wonder how casting works in this industry...
