Can I Be Someone Else
1 persone hanno trovato utile questa recensione
Pleasantly surprised.
Based on it's summary and premise I was expecting a lightweight comedy full of tropes. But this series has a surprising amount of depth. It's not your typical romcom that we've all seen 30 times before. There are some twists. There's also a lot of discussion about the difficulties in relationships, which ones are surmountable, and which ones aren't. It treats the characters like grown-ups.Questa recensione ti è stata utile?

Watching this drama was an experience.
This one's a bit hard to summarize. It definitely qualifies as a slow burner. It's very immersive. Two main stories unfold: the love story, and the hidden family secrets story. Some side stories work; others are annoying.The love story works and the family secrets storyline is absolutely gripping. The acting is superb. Watching the primary cast play off each other was immensely satisfying. And it's all set in this moody, introspective winter environment with an ambient score. There are layers, revelations, poetry and philosophy, all metered out at a satisfying pace. I didn't watch it as much as let it wash over me.

Mixed feelings about this one.
It's not a light and airy kdrama. One bad thing happens after another. Even the "good" people aren't exactly saints. Some actions seem inexplicable at first because they aren't explained until later. But the acting is superb and ML and FL are great together. The ending didn't go in the direction I was expecting but it was still satisfying. It does have a few tropes you see in all kdramas but it's not over the top. And it's only 12 episodes so there's not a lot of filler. It's worth a watch.Questa recensione ti è stata utile?
This one's wild.
This ain't your normal kdrama. First off it's very explicit. I don't think I've seen one deal with sex this bluntly.Basically they try to put the "spark" back in their marriage while blackmailing people having affairs. As the stakes increase so do the consequences. Things take a twist in the final episodes. If you're looking for something a little weird, slightly endearing and definitely out of the ordinary give it a try.

Loved it for the most part.
The interaction between the female leads was great. The side characters were entertaining. The series is pretty streamlined. The main (required) love story felt like forced filler but didn't distract from the story or halt the drama in it's tracks or anything. Worth a watch. I watched it mainly for Hani but was pleasantly surprised.Questa recensione ti è stata utile?
