I kinda wanna watch the zombie movie instead

Most of it has been said in the other upvoted reviews. Started pretty well, then came the split personality plotline (which I get it, kdramas need the drama part). If it ended there, it would've been an "OK" drama, that you can watch if you like the actors or are in between better shows. But then came the last episode, the left turn there is really what annoys me the most. I'm one of those who find that the ending is paramount (quoting someone else). The zombie movie scenes are actually the highlight of the show for me. And Do ra mi ( movie character, not the other personality) is the most interesting character of the show.

The Cost of Being Good

I went into Cashero thinking I was signing up for a quirky superhero comedy.

The premise alone sounded playful: a man whose superpower scales with how much money he has on hand. It felt like one of those clever, high-concept ideas meant to generate laughs and light action. What I absolutely did not expect was to be emotionally dismantled within the first two episodes. Cashero is not interested in spectacle. It’s interested in cost. And once that clicks, every so-called “heroic moment” stops being thrilling and starts hurting in a very specific, adult way.

At the center of the story is Kang Sang-woong, played by Lee Jun-ho, and this might be one of his most quietly devastating roles. Sang-woong is not ambitious, not grand, not chasing greatness. He’s a regular man who did everything right. He saved diligently. He planned a future with his girlfriend. He wanted a home, stability, a small and decent happiness. Then he inherits a power that doesn’t elevate his life but interrupts it. His strength isn’t infinite, rechargeable, or symbolic. Every time he uses it, real money evaporates. Not metaphorical money. Not “energy.” Actual savings. Numbers you can calculate. A bus full of people costs him tens of millions. Saving the woman he loves drains the entire account he’d been building for years. Watching this happen feels less like witnessing heroism and more like watching someone set fire to their future in real time.

What makes this unbearable in the best way is the inner monologue. Kdramas almost never let us live inside a character’s head this explicitly, and Cashero weaponizes that choice. We hear every hesitation, every rationalization, every ugly, honest thought Sang-woong isn’t proud of. When he thinks, “If I had more money, I’d be a good person,” it lands like a punch to the chest because it’s not noble. It’s true. The drama doesn’t romanticize sacrifice; it itemizes it. Sirens don’t signal excitement. They signal loss. Another withdrawal. Another dream delayed or erased.

The generational aspect only deepens the tragedy. This power isn’t a random blessing. It’s inherited, passed down from grandfather to father to son like a debt that can’t be refused. A late revelation reframes Sang-woong’s father entirely. He wasn’t bad with money. He wasn’t irresponsible. In a letter, he admits that every time he tried to give his family more, the universe demanded more from him in return. That line alone encapsulates the soul of this drama. The better you try to live, the higher the bill becomes. Decency is not rewarded; it’s exploited. The power doesn’t punish greed. It punishes hope.

And yet, Sang-woong keeps choosing to act. Not because it’s right in some abstract moral sense, but because walking away would require him to become someone he cannot live with. That’s what makes him a hero. Not the rescues themselves, but the fact that he keeps stepping forward when stepping back would be easier, more logical, and more humane to himself. His heroism is reluctant, finite, and painfully rational, which makes it far more affecting than any cape-and-glory narrative.

A huge emotional anchor in this story is Kim Min-suk, played by Kim Hye-jun, and this was my first time watching her work. I genuinely fell in love with her here. Min-suk could have easily been written as the “worried girlfriend” archetype, but instead she becomes one of the drama’s emotional pillars. She is practical, intelligent, and emotionally generous. As the couple’s literal financial manager, she understands the cost of Sang-woong’s power more clearly than anyone, and yet she never reduces him to a ledger. Watching her grow from supportive girlfriend into wife is quietly heartwarming. She doesn’t just stand beside him; she chooses the life he’s forced into with open eyes. Her love isn’t blind optimism. It’s informed, deliberate commitment, and that makes it feel earned in a way K-drama relationships often struggle to achieve.

The supporting cast adds texture without diluting the core theme, but Cashero never loses sight of what it’s really about: real people, real limits, and sacrifice you can measure. This is a superhero story where the fantasy element only exists to make the reality sharper. When Sang-woong saves people, the triumph is immediately undercut by the aftermath. You don’t cheer. You grieve. And over time, you realize that’s the point. The show wants you to feel uncomfortable about how casually we celebrate self-sacrifice without asking who pays for it.

There is a late-stage narrative choice involving time travel that functions as a deus ex machina, and yes, this is the one place where the drama slightly overreaches. It’s a neat solution, and in another story it might feel cheap. Here, it doesn’t quite dilute the central theme, but you can feel the writer’s hand nudging the scales back toward balance. That said, this is nitpicking more than a true flaw. The emotional groundwork is so strong that the resolution still lands. The story never pretends that heroism becomes free or painless. Even at its most fantastical, the heart of Cashero remains intact.

By the end, what stayed with me wasn’t a single action sequence or dramatic reveal. It was the quiet, devastating idea at the core of the show: he’s out there using his own money to save the world. Not government funding. Not corporate backing. Not divine grace. Just one man, draining his personal future so strangers can keep theirs. That framing turns heroism into something fragile and deeply human, and it lingers long after the credits roll.

On a personal note, this also marked my third Lee Jun-ho drama and my second one back-to-back right after Typhoon Family, and watching him inhabit two deeply human yet fundamentally different characters in such close succession was an absolute treat. Where Typhoon Family asked him to navigate ambition, responsibility, and emotional restraint within a family and corporate framework, Cashero strips him down to something even more vulnerable: a man quietly negotiating with his conscience every time he opens his wallet. There’s no overlap, no comfort zone repetition, just range, control, and an instinctive understanding of ordinary people placed in extraordinary moral pressure. My respect for him as an actor has only deepened, and as of now, his Kdrama satisfaction rate for me remains a clean, undefeated 100%.

Cashero isn’t a power fantasy. It’s a ledger. And Sang-woong is always in the red. Yet somehow, despite everything, he keeps choosing to be good. Not because it’s rewarded, but because it’s who he is. That’s not flashy heroism. That’s the kind that hurts to watch, and the kind that’s hardest to forget.

When Second Chances Are Not So Simple

When I went into this drama, I honestly thought I was getting a typical rebirth story, where the main character gets a second chance to relive her life and make better choices. That alone already had me intrigued. But Scent of Time turned out to be so much more than that.

I initially started this drama because I had recently discovered the female lead in one of 2025’s most popular C-dramas, The Female General, where she was absolutely fabulous. On top of that, seeing Wang Xing Yue, who I loved in The Double, as one of the leads made me even more excited to watch.

At its core, this drama is about redemption, but it is also about something much harder, accepting and living with the consequences of your actions. It does not shy away from the idea that not everything can be undone, even when you want a second chance. That theme really stayed with me.

I ended up binge-watching this drama because once I started, I genuinely could not stop. The story kept pulling me in, episode after episode. And the twist at the end? I was not expecting it at all, but I actually liked it. It made sense for the story they were telling and added an extra layer of meaning to everything that came before.

At the end of the day, Scent of Time is about consequences. Every choice you make matters. You cannot undo everything, but you can learn, grow, and take responsibility for your choices, and that alone carries meaning.

Scent of Time is thoughtful, emotional, and quietly powerful. It is the kind of drama that stays with you after you finish it, and I am really glad I gave it a chance.

A perfect continuation of the first part .

I really enjoyed this second part, despite what many say, I don't think it was bad or pointless. The "bad" ending that many people talk about was actually a somewhat realistic one, considering they had never been through anything like it before, so the probability of them dying was high, even though it wasn't exactly solely the creatures "fault," that situation would have driven anyone crazy. Yeoungsoo is one of the worst characters in school dramas I've ever seen. Everyone there was at their limit with that situation, but he decided to kill his classmate and hide his body and to commit harassment against his classmate and destroy the entire class
For me, the point that was quite positive was seeing them stronger at the beginning of the second part

Taxi Driver 3 – A Moral Breakdown with No Discussion

I loved Taxi Driver Seasons 1 & 2. Vigilante justice with a code. Batman-style revenge: brutal, clever, cathartic — but they didn’t kill people. That was the point.

Season 3? Apparently that memo got lost.

Somewhere along the way Rainbow Taxi stopped exposing villains and started… burying people alive, leaving others to drown, and very much letting characters die without a blink or a single line of self-reflection. No debate. No guilt. No acknowledgement that they’ve crossed a line they spent two seasons carefully avoiding.

And that’s the problem.

If you’re going to abandon the show’s moral backbone, you need to say something about it. Instead, Season 3 just shrugs and moves on. The writing seems to assume “they’re evil enough, so it’s fine,” which is lazy and honestly a bit disappointing.
The plots were darker, sure. Some cases were still compelling. Lee Je-hoon remains excellent. But the emotional and ethical coherence that made this show satisfying is gone.

I didn’t hate it. I just finished it feeling confused, unsatisfied, and slightly betrayed — like watching Batman suddenly become The Punisher and no one mentioning it.

Season 1–2: sharp, righteous revenge.
Season 3: vibes, violence, and a raised eyebrow.
Underwhelming. And a bit shit.

how we all wish falling in love feels like

we all been to these situations where either a heartbreak or the feeling of never opening up to someone again or even for the first time is bothering us. so if you want a new perspective i recommend you to watch me and thee. the characters portray their emotions and bondings with e/o so well and despite from khun thee being really relatable with his badownism & delulu mind, you can learn a lot from these characters!
be it siblings who have been through trauma together, friendships who require responsibility and respect, colleagues who need to overcome issues with team work or even someone helplessly in love even knowing they did the other person wrong. this series touches your heart to the point where you will smile, giggle, cry, yearn, laugh and wish it would never end! the romance makes your heart flutter and the cheesy cringing helps to understand that every one has their own quirks, reaso enough to be one of a kind and that is exactly what we fall in love with when meeting new people.
may a love like theepeach find me, where green forest meets the blue ocean. 🤭

A series that hooks you from beginning to end.

I consider it an incredible series, from the storyline to the performances. It handles the topic of discovering your sexual orientation very well and shows how one person can change your perspective on life. Pond and Phuwin were the ideal actors to play the roles of Thee and Peach, and the same goes for the supporting characters. A very good casting choice. A tender ending that stays true to the original novel. I love that they portrayed how same-sex couples can adopt and get married, something that should be allowed all over the world. Excellent work with Me And Thee, in my opinion, the series of 2025–2026.

Beautiful Cinematography and a well written plot

This drama started on a very good note, just as I expected. The trailer was good, and I was really enjoying the first few episodes. I thought it was a fun romcom with beautiful visuals until Mu-hee’s split personality was introduced. I was confused because I didn’t remember seeing this in the trailer lol, but I soon found myself pulled in by that sudden plot twist.

However, I also ended up feeling disappointed by a few things. Mu-hee was always clear about her feelings from the very beginning,literally from the first episode. Ho-jin could have told Mu-hee at any time that he had moved on from his first love and actually liked her, but instead he complicated things. Then Do Ra-mi started showing up more often and made their relationship even more complicated. This part of the drama honestly felt like the plot was being dragged a bit too much.

Another thing is that I usually don’t care much for second male leads because I almost always ship the FL with the ML, so I tend to ignore them. But God, when I tell you I felt so sad for Hiro. I felt like he got dragged into all their complications and ended up getting rejected. From the confession scene, I could tell he really fell hard for Mu-hee. That doesn’t mean I like Ho-jin any less though. Even if his character was frustrating at times, he was still the ONLY one who consistently supported Mu-hee emotionally throughout the drama.

So to sum it all up, I wouldn’t say this drama was overhyped because it delivered exactly what the trailer and previews showcased. KSH and GYJ had INSANE chemistry!! The way they looked at each other whenever they wanted to be together was beautiful they genuinely had the look of love in this drama. Even the second couple was pretty cute too. After the slow burn of the main couple, the fast-paced relationship of the second couple was really fun to watch. The cinematography was insanely beautiful, and I’d give it a solid 8. I really enjoyed watching it in one go!!

I wanted this to be so much more

This drama was one of my most anticipated dramas of 2026, and honestly… It disappointed me.

Let me start with the positives, because there are quite a few. I loved seeing KSH back in a romance drama, and the pairing of KSH and GYJ was probably the biggest reason I managed to finish the show after it started dipping. Visually, this drama was stunning. The cinematography was beautiful, the locations were breathtaking, and every frame felt so thoughtfully composed. Each shot was genuinely pleasing to watch and constantly made me look forward to the next scene.

The drama also started off really strong with a unique and refreshing storyline. You could clearly see how much effort the actors put into this project, and that sincerity translated on screen. If you’re a regular Kdrama watcher, the first half genuinely felt like a breath of fresh air.

BUT --- and this is a big but, the drama started going downhill around episode 7.

At that point, I honestly found myself wondering if I was even watching the same drama anymore. I was excited to see how the relationship between the leads would unfold, but instead, the show suddenly shifted its entire genre out of nowhere. What made this more frustrating was that the characters themselves were written with so much depth and care. Their backstories were detailed, layered, and clearly built with intention --- which made the tonal shift even harder to accept.

I’m not against the exploration of Cha Mu Hee’s childhood trauma. In fact, it was necessary for her character growth and for her to finally believe in the love she deserved. My issue was how this was handled. Unwrapping her trauma led to a complete change in the genre of the drama, which felt shocking and jarring as a viewer. On top of that, the storyline was dragged out for nearly FOUR episodes, which significantly disrupted the pacing and consistency of the plot.

Some of the logic behind Do Ra Mi’s actions also didn’t make much sense to me. I understand that her role was important in helping Ho Jin and Mu Hee interpret their feelings for each other, but did it really need to be stretched across FOUR episodes? I actually liked her character more when she appeared subtly through hallucinations earlier on, keeping it restrained might have helped maintain the drama’s original tone.

To be clear, I don’t have anything else against this drama. I appreciated the creative enthusiasm behind it and the risks the team tried to take. What frustrated me was sitting through the final episodes, internally screaming and repeatedly asking myself “WTF is happening?” for an entire hour. It felt a little deceptive, especially since the creators gave no indication that the story would head in this direction. At that point, I found myself watching purely for the sake of my favorite actors.

That said, I really loved the ending once the leads finally came together. I appreciated how they kept communication open and avoided unnecessary misunderstandings, especially after all the push and pull drama we’d already endured. Still, the overall issue remained: the plot and characters felt disconnected from the first half of the drama towards the end, which made binge-watching the final stretch quite difficult.

Still unnatural drama for advertisement

Aside from the obvious product placement, the entire series is just a generic short drama. FL is wrongly convicted and tortured in a mental hospital, escapes, and uses ML's influence to seek revenge. There's constant slapping, and the ML only appears after the FL has been tortured enough.

Chemistry between Wang Kaimu and Zhang Chuxuan still sufficient but not too overflowing. Feels this drama didn't focus on romance but revenge. Zhang Chuxuan plays the crazy FL smooth and Wang Kaimu styling in this drama is too messy.

Some scenes are ridiculously absurd, like when the FL is pushed into the water by a antagonist to drown, but the water only reaches her knees. Plot in this drama is too lazy lacking effort.

After watch this drama did i want to use the website? absolutely nope ❤︎
