Don't worry MDL ratings are irrelevant, I doubt they even know or care about this site. I must say LND is doing well regardless of the unnecessary negativity spread here or on other different platforms, there are still a lot of other people who are truly enjoying this just as much as we are. Also, this site is more like a 'to-do-list' or simply a 'community' for those who enjoy dramas/movies. So, no matter what ratings dramas get here, their success does not solely reflect or depend on this site.

TOTALLY!! my replay button will suffer tonight because I will def replay that scene many many times despite already seeing it enough from the previews hahah

Yes, you are right! initially I thought the storyline of LND was predictable but as I watched up to the latest ep 8, I realized the writer always has something up on their sleeves, they have a knack at playing with our emotions and what turned out to be simple/small details were actually key hints for the unfolding of each characters layers. For me, this is nowhere near repetitive at all but rather a fresh storyline. I think those who are 'really' watching this drama and paying close attention to small details are the ones who would be able to clearly see through that the storyline of LND is more than just what they claimed it to be. I think some don't even really watch this drama at all, as i've seen some people missing out on the obvious details even at the very beginning of ep 1, they managed to mistake a present scene into a future scene. So yeah, for me the thoughtless ones are those who claim to be watching this drama but in reality aren't actually really doing so or like those who skip scenes, they will surely tend to miss a lot of important details.

i'm so excited to see Haein's hotness in black tee while he vents out his frustrations playing baseball haha considering this a blessing amidst the angst we will get this episode

Just saw the still cuts for ep 9 today, it shows Seunghyo asleep in his bed with a towel placed on his head while Seokryu is also seen lying down and watching over him OMG. So, my guess is this is a scene before their supposed intense argument when Seunghyo finally learnt her secret. Kinda lowkey hoping for an angry kiss scene or hug scene between the both of them haha

YASS!! I'M SO READY FOR TOMORROW

Exactly, it isn't totally that bad at all like how people had deemed it to be. They were so quick to judge and put a 'death sentence' on her when nothing has been set in stone yet. Some of those who haven't even watched LND also got bought in those ideas. Like, I wanted to tell them to chill and wait for next episode haha as it seems some were quickly concluding that this is QOT 2.0 all over again. However, with those upcoming episodes i'm sure they'd realize even more that she isn't in a brink of death state and how LND storyline focus is not solely about the CANCER but many other aspects, so this is clearly not QOT 2.0. You're right! That is one of the reason why I love angst in my dramas too...we get to savor ther moments even more!

Tomorrow with you is honestly so underrated. It's one of my fave time-travel dramas back then when LR wasn't released yet. Yep, that is why I have confidence that LND will turn out wonderful hehe

my case is quite the opposite of yours, I like romcom genres and usually I watch those with super cliche plots (like true beauty), however, these recent years I grew tired of such dramas, so now I also only watch and like romcoms if they have angst, slice of life, or a lil bit of thriller in them etc.

They've actually already given us insight about that part at ep 8 timestamp 14:20. I think for the upcoming episodes this week, the story of her and her annoying ex might finally be wrapped up and we'd get a clearer answer if he really did cheat on her or not, also on why her behavior towards him is like that knowing she no longer has any feelings for him.

I'm all ready and excited for tomorrow's upcoming ep 9 and 10. I think I need to prepare tissues for the intense scenes, I can't wait to see the scene where both of them bursted out in all of their emotions. Looking forward to finally bid her annoying ex bye bye hehe....also, can't wait to see more progress between Moeum and her mudflatman cause I am still not over her hilarious unintended revelation about her 'crush'!!!

That scene is actually one of my favourite scenes of theirs. I agree, every single thing about it alone is pure magic and I find it so heartwarming. Most specially with that exact line of SeungHyo which you've mentioned, the way I interpret it is like: "you can take off the mask on your face now, you are safe with me" or "I see you, it's okay to be the real you". It truly is like you've said simple but captivating. As I see SeokRyu's character as the type to carry everything on her shoulders and suffer alone (kinda relate to her with hiding her real feelings), I find that line alone very meaningful and comforting. It made me wish, I had someone like Choi SeungHyo in real life.

So true! this is one of the reasons that makes me love their relationship so much and makes me super excited for more of their romance progress!!

This is so true. I witnessed those toxic moments as well as I have watched QOT before. I agree, they can't seem to keep LND out of their mouths, just shows how bothered they are and YES, no matter how much negativity/toxicity they try to spread, their opinions won't hinder LND's success. Though it's commendable how they are putting in so much effort to spread hate about LND, I wish I had that much time to waste haha

True. I've noticed it too. Some are clearly just hate for the drama not 'criticism'. I also find it funny at the same time because of how they nitpick every single thing about LND. I remember replying to one comment here the other day about how they disliked that the ML & FL are always together which is so silly because where else would they be then 😭😂 haha. Anyway, the fact that they keep spreading hate about LND even spreading it on other 'dramas' comment section just proves to show how bothered they are that at the end of the day, a lot of people are still loving this drama despite the amount of hate they spread.

I agree, I don't see the connection at all haha they just obviously hate this drama and is hiding under a troll/alternate acc

yeah they were all over my timeline then, even having the same body guard actually became an issue haha

dating rumors are actually normal in Kdramas especially those of romcom genre, there are other romcom dramas (QOT, CLOY, LOVELY RUNNER ETC.) or even ones with a different genre that also had dating rumors circulating around so to put it simply it's a Kdrama thing so it happens all the time and LND is no exception from having such.

You are spot on! disagreements are truly bound to happen whether one likes it or not and just because someone disagrees it doesn't automatically equate to it being a hate comment or targeted harassment towards the commenter. Sadly, these days it's no longer easy to have such kind of conversational exchange without it turning into something toxic. Gone are the good days. So true! i'm glad we share the same sentiments because yeah it is truly too nitpicking :)

YES! you have clearly said what has been on my mind. I was only stating that opinion here as I am against such type of criticisms that overlooks those facts, as I find them actually irrelevant. I respect people who have different opinions and interest, and am usually not the type to engage in comments that differs from my opinion but the statement OP had made here is really the bottom line for me. Simply, it doesn't make sense how one can deem such tropes as 'original' in a cdrama but a 'copy' when a kdrama uses it.
