completed in 2024

I wanted to like this more but the story went somewhere I didn't expect. happy ending and nice couple, but after ep 8 I just couldn't really fully care about this drama..

7.5-8.0 is my rating I'm still deciding

shojo romance.  has a good looking ml and well a good looking ml

I like the main actors

not my typical drama. I like the lead couple. but it's a dark fantasy. the ending is happy but a bit open..

i did rate it 10/10

funny poop arc
a bit too much yelling, slightly cheesy at times
but at it's core it's a sweet story

finally a second female lead (su jin) who isn't super meddlesome!

it got kinda dark towards the end...

otherwise it's a nice small town drama

started randomly on netflix: 5th May 2024
completed on netflix: 23rd May 2024

(I started it before the vineyard man)

I avoided this drama for the past 2 years thinking it was just another office romance kinda drama..

binged on netflix with my brother

7.5-8.0 rating..my brother gives it 8 and I'm not sure. I thought it was entertaining but it does leave me with a little cringey feeling..but it is a fluffy romance drama without seriousness

binged over the weekend on netflix (8th - 10th June)

it's not really heavy on romance in fact it could do fine without it, but I do like the second male lead more, the main male lead is kinda basic

started after business proposal but almost finished first

not sure what to rate it but maybe 8 or 7.5 (0.5 off because she didn't end up with tae kwang..) but i didn't get bored (or have time to) and I wanted to watch all the way through

FIRST WATCHED IN 2022! 

REWATCHED AGAIN IN 2024

watched randomly when I had nothing to do. plot sounds like that winter the wind blows (although I dropped that after ep 1)

watched: 22nd June 2024 on a rainy and boring night

(downloaded off of myasiantv in 2 parts in 360p)

I don't know what to rate it..

the main couple make me smile so much. my cheeks hurt from grinning <3

sad ending

it's got a pretty look

started watching randomly on netflix on like the 12th March 2024 (put it on hold during episode 2, wasn't really paying attention..)

picked it up again on netflix in july and finished on the 9th July 2024

so either lee gak time travelled to her in the end again, or tae yong remembered everything. either way you can imagine whatever you like.

not sure what to rate it yet..

started after chocolate. binged it in about 3 days <3

the couple have amazing chemistry despite the age gap <3

this drama does leave me with a kinda cringy feeling, but it's probably because I'm not really a touchy feely person..but it's still really good and they made me happy watching them.

it does just kinda end..hopefully they lived a long life together though

could've been only 12-14 episodes. it does have small town romance vibes <3

it wasn't bad. his love for her was clear and it was nice seeing how he treated her. there's more violence then appreciated or expected..it's not very memorable, but it's good enough.

some thoughts while watching this lol:
from ep 5 I watched while I studied to get through it..
Not a huge fan of jang na ra in this so far...started while stuck on ep 13 of fated to love you kdrama
sml doesn't like cats so he's a minus..he fed it after

I kinda ship the ml and ballet girl..I also prefer the ballet girl's character over the female lead..
at this point the ml and ballet girl should get together..
not really into the female lead's character..

na moo from come and hug me is the second male lead

by episode 12 I was starting to get into it more but then it ended..

parts of the drama were better than others. my rating is between 7.5 and 8.5..

I don't really like ghost plots and sometimes I even forgot she exists and then was reminded she does... 

the female lead (doo rim) wasn't always the most likeable..the male lead had his bad moments but he was probably the best character

they have a kid at the end

I've started various dramas since finishing bride of the century, but haven't finished any one them. this drama is similar in a way to BOTC. 

I decided to give it a go despite the mixed reviews. 

that stalker brother in law is like a second male lead from 2000s dramas iykwim.. -_-

ML is in goong

first kiss is in end of ep 7

can't find ep 18 full in good quality so I watched that on viki and found 3 parts in good quality on youtube

I kinda liked the loan shark with his yellow shoes. he also acts in king's daughter su baek hyang and he way kinda funny in that too.

watch history:                                                                                                                                                                                

started randomly on viki: 17th September 2024
continued watching from ep 1 on viki: 24th September 2024

from ep 3 I watched on comp, but files off myasiantv are kinda out of sync

finished it: 28th September 2024 

upon conclusion it sometimes did feel like the characters we kinda dumb, but I actually binged my way through it all. I don't think it's a terrible drama. would I rewatch? probably not since suk hoon shows up too much for his own good. also in the end it felt like they really took inspiration for his character from the second male lead in save the last dance for me. their backstory is almost identical, but this guy was more controlling, manipulation station. 

the main couple have a happy ending and a daughter named min sook <3

started watching on netflix: 1st October 2024
