loving the lovelines

My fave episode thus far. I'd still like more behind the scenes or interviews but I'm really picking up what they're throwing down. IU was great and more believable this go round and made me laugh a few times too. Everyone else is still funtastic to watch.



I'm still not 100% on the OTP but I know who my money is on for now anyway. Is be happy with one pairing or multiple pairings. They have all got nice, cute chemistry.



Last notes: I'm not addicted to the show but will definitely complete it. I'm a bit disappointed that each episode has a unique feel and look which takes away from the overall storytelling. Yejin talks A LOT = sometimes funny, sometimes annoying. I'm having fun with this and am sad I don't get all the inside jokes.

disjointed editing made the episode feel like filler

I'm disappointed by the direction of this episode and also the 5th episode. There are so many gaps in storytelling that it's hard to follow and care about what we're following. with a tighter script and solid narrative direction I think this series could be amazing. Perhaps not leaning so much on the novel and going more into the story of King rather than staying with Uea in the office. If we're going to be stuck in the office space, we should have more moments where we learn and progress with either Uea or King and what they're thinking and up against internally and externally. How's it's being shown right now is very elementary and it's very clear that the actors can deliver more given the script and story. The editing could also be tighter with cuts happening sooner. The blocking is too obvious and rigid which stilts some of the performances making it seem like maybe they're tired of the script, too. I hope it improves in the next episodes. The 1st 3 episodes got my hopes up, but I feel let down these past weeks.

Hooked on This Trip

I don't believe that the first two episodes already over. I really want to know how this works. This got me so hooked on this show 90 minutes ago. The overarching mystery is pretty intense. The first episode went by very quickly, sometimes a bit too quickly for me to follow, but the second episode's pacing is fantastic and I'm in it for the long haul.

Really Cute

This episode pretty much summed up the entire series. In a nutshell, "cute" is the word I'd use to describe it.



It had a balance of not too deep and not super light. Just super fluffy with a smidgen of edge to it. Overall, I enjoyed it mostly because of Kang Min Ho. Not a burning chemistry with Kim Soon Jung, but I give the couple a pass since they seemed to do well in their cuteness (and awkwardness) together.



The supporting cast were also fun, but I'm glad it's over. These final episodes were super slow in the pacing department, however, because I grinned at the final scene and thought it held a consistent level of cute that the latter half of the series carried by the bushel, I'm sticking with my assessment of CUTE for this drama.

lollipop

Not a review. Just a rambling.



It's interesting that the only traits that have continued on from his donor at this point are the lollipops. He missed a great opportunity to adjust a tie (and recognize his handsomeness) and to tap a nose. not that the story is lacking without these elements but it would just be more consistent and just a tad bit more fun. I'm still enjoying the acting but waffling with some of the plot. But I'm glad you're moving in the direction of solving the mystery of who killed the fiance. Or rather who will be caught for killing the fiance.

keeps you guessing

I'm not ashamed to admit that I guessed incorrectly for pretty much most of the first two episodes. In my book that's a win. intriguing characters and interesting mystery. great visuals, however I wasn't always able to connect the dots, possibly due to tons of subtitles and similar names, but I got all of the main points. At the end of this episode my only question is: will be an overarching mystery to the series or is it going to be episodic? I'm going to definitely catch the next episode and decide after that.

Take care of your own trash

so far I'm really enjoying the show. I enjoy the metaphors and the mega metaphors and the acting is enjoyable. It also seems like the directors, actors, writers, guest stars, and the entire team is very much in sync. I laughed, I teared up, I sighed and shook my head. IU is maybe the weakest link however she still fits in nicely. even though I'm not very familiar with the meta jokes I still find myself laughing at the ridiculous situations and the repetition in order to get the joke. And that enlist trash (literal and metaphorical) being tossed back and forth was hilarious.I think it would also be more interesting if people actually noticed the cameras following them a little bit more. I'm pretty sure I'll be entertained until the very last episode. I'm going to stick with this.

Let's Get Hitched!

I'm having a blast with my Wonderful Life marathon. My smile rarely leaves my face and when it does, the tears are welling up. ::sob:: and then I smile really big when the main couple go at it again. They bicker, fight, and play so much. It's a joy to watch.

scorched earth

what a build up. Acting is still amazing. the pacing is fantastic. The plot is moving along quite nicely and I just don't know what will happen next. Can't believe that they left us with that gripping of a cliffhanger. The show is phenomenal and I'm excited for the final week but at the same time I don't want it to be over.



I'm constantly wondering if the good guys even stand a chance. I still have hope.

if you're going to watch this episode be prepared to watch another hour immediately afterwards if not then don't get started or you will be left screaming at the television screen.

fight to the finish

The show has lost most of my attention over the past few episodes but I'm pushing through to the finish line. maybe I'm the only one it seems to be dragging, but the pacing has seriously slowed down a lot.



I really wish they stuck with the brother's killer storyline because right now I'm barely interested in watching the final episode. The acting is ok but it seems to be a little less on par with the previous episodes as if the actors are currently phoning it in and saving their energy for the final countdowen, but I'm going to continue as if I mean to finish.

Live-action Poetry

Seriously beautiful. Editing, directing, acting, cinematography, music, writing and all the other bits come together perfectly. Shear magic on film.



He is so effortlessly endearing and a joy to watch. He hardly says anything out loud but his whole being speaks volumes.

The rest of the cast are gorgeous as well, and I don't mean physically. I'm so into each of their stories and they motivate me to ask what am I doing with my life.



I need to GET DRUNK!

Good for a Laugh

I found myself chuckling several times throughout this episode. These characters are so cute however at the same time they have a bit of depth to them which has me caring about what will happen next for each of them.



I didn't expect to like the chaebol after the previous episode but he's growing on me, and it didn't hurt to see a flash of his chest either.



So far so good. I think I'm going all in on this show.

Nice reveal

I didn't see the San Ye reveal coming, yet it completely made since after all the hints and previous circumstances. Well played. And now I feel all kinds of things for different people that I didn't expect to feel with this new knowledge that only the viewers have. yikes.

I'm In!

Strangely, I don't really know what's going on yet, but I'm very excited to continue on the ride.



Part 1:

What a start. Do aliens exist and what constitutes evidence of their existence if they do?

Very intriguing story. I feel like I knew as much as Woo Jin and was trying to figure it all out along with him. I immediately felt for him and his struggles with just one look at his eyes. Bum Gyun was also a heartbreaker. Just because the world thinks you're crazy does't mean you can't be right once in a while.

Thus far, this show is very well produced, fast paced, well acted and has and interesting story with great direction.



Part 2:

A bit of a jolt from storyline A to B, but as it progressed, the future connection became clearer. (I didn't have any idea what the show was about before watching, so went into it blind with zero expectations.) The tone is different, which was a bold choice, but appropriately distinguishes the change in setting and time from Part 1. This story seemed to move even faster than in Part 1 and kept me engaged from start to finish. Again, great actors, settings, pacing, cinematography, direction and story. I'm not too keen on the music just yet, since it seemed somewhat out of place, but it'll probably grow on me since it's part of the wackiness of the future, I guess.



Great start. I hope the remaining episodes live up to the pilot.

are we there yet?

Super slow pacing made this a struggle to finish. I'm not even sure if I'm still interested in the overall plot since I had issues focusing for the full hour. AND there were no laughs at all in this episode. there wasn't even any attempt at humor. Everyone took everything so serious and never took a breath between inner turmoils.



And does the doctor in the closet ever get a potty break?
