A ROM-COM AT ITS BEST!!!
Is Lovestruck In The City romantic? Hell YES!
Is it funny? No, it is hilarious and witty!
Have you ever found yourself watching kdramas labeled as a rom-com and wondering why? Where´s the comedy or the romance? You just can't find it. But in LITC is never the case. It stays true to the genre throughout. Thus I would put it up there with my most favorite kdramas of all time. Everything about it is pure perfection; smart and poignant writing, fun direction, high production value and a marvelous cast through and through.
I agree with some of the reviewers that pointed out that at first they found annoying the interview format, and I also agree that once you buy into the story you get hooked and the interview format becomes another character in itself and you can´t help but be mesmerized by the whole experience.
I think that this is a truly ensemble production, the six main characters are well developed and it is a joy to watch the actors do a fantastic job on their roles as their group chemistry is insane.
Even though the show is driven by the six characters and their stories equally interesting to watch, there is a main couple just like any other rom-com. Is no secret that Ji Chang Wook is sexy and a damn good actor whose charisma is off the wall. I would even go as far as to say that perhaps this is my favorite role of his. His range as an actor is quite incredible; he can play the cold bad ass action hero and the vulnerable heartbroken dude with the same credibility and gorgeous smile. Playing alongside Kim Ji Won must have been fun since she is also, in my opinion, one of the best actresses of her generation. And I admire that she always chooses great projects, whether she plays the main character of a drama or a supporting character she always pulls you in and makes you root for her. Her characters are always so grounded that you never question why the MLs love her or in this case why the ML is so obsessed with her. She is simply fantastic, never disapoints!
The writer did such a terrific job tackling subjects such as falling in and out of love, sex in a non cliché way that was super fun to watch. There´s never a dull moment in the series and the closure that all 6 characters and the police man got are all consequential, nothing feels ¨out of the blue¨ therefore I am satisfied with the ending.
Would I recommend it? Hell YES. However if you´re a sucker for unjustified love and slow motion tight lip kisses in your kdramas do yourself a favor and SKIP this one.
