First drama I watched since 2010

When I watched this, I thought it was amazing. The killer made it intense, the main leads made it romantic, the female lead made it funny.

My favourite thing about this show would be the build up to the first kiss. There was so much chemistry.

My second favourite thing is the music and the directing. The snippets at the end of the episode was the cherry on top. The music was very mystical like you were in a dream and the backgrounds were very fantasy like which heightened all the romantic scenes.

But everything after the first kiss was slow and predictable.

My comeback kdrama that made me addicted to kdramas.

This is the only drama I watched while it was airing.

I watched snippets of the first episode on Instagram and fell in love with the premise. So I continued watching it while it was airing and for the one time in my life I understood the pain of waiting for a week just for the next episode.

I kept on watching the episodes that were already out for a week!!!

Ok. It was fluffy. And cute. But first and foremost, it was touched something in me that made me feel the same emotions that they were feeling:

I think it's because I understood how she felt when no one believed in her creations besides from the male lead. He appreciated and was in awe of her creations despite what others think. As a designer myself, I felt so overcome with emotions when someone appreciated her creations. Something I've always wanted for myself. When he couldn't convince the robot team to leave the female lead robot with him because of his lack of social skills and how he cried on her shoulder. I cried along with him because as a introvert myself, I felt the same every time I come back home since I couldn't socialise with others.

I was so invested in their romance that I cried of happiness and sadness along with them.

So many moments to rewatch. Probably the most underrated show I've watched.

Interesting premise. So much potential but was explored poorly.

This drama is probably the worst drama out of all the Park Hye-Ryun dramas.

The show's premise was very interesting in the first few episodes. The directing and the story was executed perfectly. But after the first few episodes, I realised there was a pattern. All the cases were linked to each of the character's danger. I found that very boring. It lasted throughout the whole drama until the last case. They also pulled a lot of fake outs. I knew the main characters weren't going to die so I wasn't really interested with the story.

The romance was not strong. It was a side theme.

I would watch the start and the end but everything in between is just filler cases.
But since it's a Park Hye-Ryun Drama, you're guaranteed to laugh out loud.

The OG drama

This drama is a gem to my family. We loved main girl's stubborn and greedy outer shell but soft inner shell. She said so many iconic lines that we repeat everyday. It was very cracky in the first 80% of the show but then became serious at the end. I cried at the end because of the main girl's dilemma that she has all the money in the world but all she wants to do is go back to the cozy family and eat dinner with them. But at the end she had to let go because realistically she can't go back. My dad rewatched the end so many times that we lost the disc for it hahahaha

Interesting premise but slow pacing

I have to say I watched this 12 years after it was first released so I'm comparing this drama to all the good dramas that have come out in the recent years.

I was really excited to watch this drama because of the hype. Everyone was giving it 10/10 which made me want to watch it even more. The first few episodes had so much potential. I was laughing and was very intrigued but to my disappointment, it only lasted for the first few episodes. The pacing is way too slow. They showed unnecessary scenes to fill out the episodes.

There was so much angst between the main leads. The male lead was a jerk. He was treating her like a piece of trash. That's not how you treat someone that you like. But still she liked him. If I was her, I would have dumped him. She was still very patient with him.

I would shorten the episodes to have a better pacing. I couldn't finish it. Just very boring.

A waste of time

When I first started watching this show, I wouldn't say I loved it but it was meh. I thought it was quite messy, I didn't know where this show was going: reporting, breast cancer, family.

After watching half of it, I couldn't push myself to watch another episode. It's so unnecessary to include breast cancer unless the writers just needed something to fill up the episodes. I really find the fighting between male leads, mums etc. so unnecessary. There were quite a lot of unnecessary filler scenes that I skipped. Finally, I had to drop it because I didn't have motivation to see what happens next. If this drama was 16 episodes instead of 24, I felt like I would've finished watching it.

I don't understand why the main girl would choose the hateful, stubborn male lead who is always mean to her rather than the gentle, kind and tall CEO 2nd male lead. The main girl kisses male lead while she's dating the 2nd male lead!! I do not support cheating.

So much potential

I was so excited about this drama! While watching the first 22 episodes, I was thinking this is best drama material. I thought this drama is exactly what I needed.

PROS
Slow burn/subtle romance
I have watched too many shows that would have a dramatic love story and somehow fate brings them together again. I enjoyed the realistic romance from friends to lovers. They were high school friends and how they talk to other friends about each other. I love how supportive she was about his career. The issues they had between them was so real. When he pursues her, it was subtle and romantic.
Male lead relatability
When he rejected her, I understood why. He was feeling insecure about himself - his high demanding job and little pay. How can he be with a celebrity that everyone loves and has so much money? He was in love with her but could not pursue it. I related so much to his struggles of chasing his dream job but parents have to suffer. His struggle of not being good enough for someone so you close yourself off.

Cons
The last 10 episodes.
Once they get together, it was so boring. There were hardly any issues. They were just kissing. So disappointed!

Doctors risk their own health to save ours

I couldn't pull myself to watch the final episode because I didn't want it to end.

The most beautiful part of this drama is the beautiful relationships between the doctors and patients and also between the 5 doctors. Every episode you'll guarantee to cry because of the sacrifices doctors are willing to make for their patients and because of the pain that patient's loved ones go through when they see the patients die. However, you'll guarantee to laugh as well because of the doctors' quirky personalities and friendship.

When I watched the first episode, I wasn't ready for so much sadness so I thought I couldn't keep watching it but when I watched the second episode, I became so addicted because of the doctors and I became very curious of what a doctor's day to day life is.

After watching this drama, I knew how important looking after your loved ones and yourself is. We need to protect ourselves from the virus in order to protect our doctors that risk their own health that fight everyday to save ours.
