It all started with my craving for Gong Yoo after coming across some old Coffee Prince clips on YouTube. Since I had already binged that drama countless times, I wanted to try another one of his older dramas. Seeing the cast of One fine day, I decided to give it a try without reading the synopsis first. If you're here for the same reason, I have to warn you, it might not be the best idea!
At first, it felt great to watch an old drama after such a long time. The fashion, the dialogue, it all brought back a sense of nostalgia. I also enjoyed the cliches they used in the story, like the separated siblings who reunite as adults and find out they're not actually related. These are typical tropes that you can easily come across in old K-dramas, and I find them quite enjoyable. But, let me tell you, there was A LOT MORE to this drama that I couldn't take positively...
The first part followed the expected storyline and was fun, but the second part totally drained me. I just wanted to finish the show and forget about it. It felt like they wanted to create a major twist or something in the story, so they came up with unnecessary and disturbing details that I didn't sign up for. Like seriously, did I need to know that the adopted brother who tried to rape the fl (which was already shocking enough) turned out to be her REAL BROTHER?! And guess what? HE and THEIR FATHER were already aware of this fact all along. It's sooo messed up! AND The father, yes the one who knew his son's attempts on her sister, IS also the BIOLOGICAL FATHER of her??!
Like how did they manage to come up with such a crappy and disturbing plot??!
Don't even get me started on Gong Yoo's side of the story and his adoptive parents. Going into those crappy details would only frustrate me more. Oh, and that girl with the heart problem? Ugh, she really got on my nerves. Her actions and obsession with the male lead drove me crazy. Like, give it up if someone does not like you!
If there's one positive aspect of this series, it would be the acting. Sung Yoo-ri was really good with her portrayal of the damsel-in-distress, and Gong Yoo was as good as ever, especially his acting in vulnerable moments. His chemistry with Sung Yoo-ri was on point as well. Lee Yeon-hee also did a decent job playing the love interest with a physical illness. Like really, her character often made me want to slap her through the screen.
So, if you've read this far and still want to watch this drama, I suppose there's nothing I can do to stop you. Just be cautious, and good luck with your sanity :) As for me, I think I'll just go back and rewatch Coffee Prince to cleanse my soul.
