Someone please explain me the hype

I have no idea why this drama is so highly rated.
I just could not watch it after a few episodes.
I am a huge fan of Yang Yang and even still I could not complete it.
The actress? Who is she kidding? Her acting is terrible compared to the ML. I tried to understand her fame but I think it is only because of her beauty (she is beautiful no doubt) but that's all to it.
I wish Yang Yang better pairings in the future
The drama was stuck inside phone screens for so long that I could not handle it. I needed real human connections but I guss I just couldn't vibe with the idea.

Yu shuxin acting skills is getting more and more wonderful, I'm not a fan of xianxia dramas but yu shuxin xianxia dramas is on another level , she is good in both xianxia and wu xia , there are many sword and fairy seasons but this one is going to be the best season with best cast and storyline, although there are many seasons but you don't need to watch another season to watch this drama , because the storyline everything is different but idk why the name is same but anyway this one of the best xianxia drama no one can defeat yu shuxin when it comes to cute looks , if anyone reading this comment and haven't watched this drama yet i would say just go for it ,also if you don't know yu shuxin yet i would recommend to check out her dramas ,she is a great actress !

Amazing show - Lovely Runner

This show was amazing, it was a roller coaster ride waiting for the episodes to be released. Very well written story, finally was satisfied to witness the happy ending. The acting of all the actors in this show was amazing.

We fans were so addicted to this series that we have an ongoing watch party along with a chatroom wherein we discussed the different scenarios and timetravels. I am pretty sure to re-watch this series a number of times.

The authenticity of the show can be seen with the amount of effort that was put in the making of this show like the ML actually singing the song for the series and also training for swimming to prove his commitment to this series.

I truly wish the stars of this show get the recognition, fame and success which they deserve.

DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME

I can honestly say I hate this drama with the burning fire of a thousand suns. Such a ridiculously stupid 32 year old FL, such a stupid story, such annoying side characters, didn't like or connect with anyone, I forwarded so much the only parts I could tolerate was FL&ML interactions (SWL was the reason I endured as long as Episode 15) .

The FL treated the relationship like it was COVID, i know you're low key but my God, freaking out over a picture of just hands, frantically searching for a card that fell out of the bunch of flowers and going to the movies like it's a James Bond movie is abit overkill no?

The 2ML was a manipulative jerk I couldn't stand past the 2nd episode and forwarded all his scenes, it was even worse that she had to meet him and discuss every little thing with him like her brain went on vacay and he just had to do all the thinking for her ??the side characters were such a bore I nearly cried, wish I could rate this 0, sadly 1 is the lowest. It's garbage don't waste your time.

If you wanna see JieDi (Older Woman younger man) romance done right, please see My Fated Boy, Why women love, the rational life, Falling into you

This drama is such a great kdrama to watch. It has the best casting I can think of, Min Ho is finally back for this amazing dram and he looks better than ever. Even Kim do Eun is back for her first drama after her hit Goblin. this drama is sensational take my word for it, it is the best. I am only three episodes in and I am counting the minutes till the next episode is out.

genre- romance
if you like watching romance dramas than this drama is for you. The chemistry between Kim do Eun and Min-ho is the best. The love line in this story is really interesting because unlike other kdrama it starts off in the first and second eps. This drama is safe to watch if you have a serious case of second lead syndrome. als o this dram has so many heart-fluttering moments because it is unbelievable what a king will do for his girl.
comedy
this drama won't be known for its a comedy but it still has it funny moments which make you feel good. there are jokes in hear which will happen when you least expect it.
fantasy
in this story you can see another perspective of Kdramas which is Fantasy. this drama is based on a parrell universes. that is all i can say or i will spoil it

Acting
- in this drama , Kim go eun was such a great choice to play the main female lead because she is so savage in her own way and she really deserves this role if you are here for her you can have high expectations. Her acting when realizes something is amazing it's almost believable.

though the graphics in this drama suck

A Familiar Revenge Story BUT with a ML Character has split personality disorder

From Enemies to Empathy/understanding to Lovers, this story still has interesting enough, there's a lot of kdrama/cdrama similar but this one quite lacks the acting ability, and another problem is the film's camera angles and shots, why does the camera shake and waggle in many scenes make the experience very uncomfortable.

The plot is quite predictable, and the chemistry is 'uhhh', it's hard to say, maybe because the acting of FL makes me so frustrated and bored. Her eyes are so bland and flat, she plays an assassin character but with naive and sleepy eyes????, also her line is so bad...

The ML's story is quite interesting to me, his acting is good and he used to be an idol before, I think he is trying hard and putting effort into this, so he can capture and embody the character so well.

In conclusion, this drama is worth watching because of ML's story.
=> I dropped this after watching ep 3, I find it hard to watch, the acting, the camera works, and the way they portray the story are all so boring to me.

Krissada repeating the same role 10 years older

Okay, so our pra'ek is now 42, and they made him remake the same old thing with a new girl, who remains 20. Is this sexist or what? LOL. Okay, I get the story is about raising some sort of fosterdaughter... But it's a pitty that if the producers had Nan Krittaporn at their disposal, they didn't think to use her as the lead.

I haven't seen the 2009 version, that never got subtitled. So I won't compare. What WAS probably better about it though, was number of episodes was 15 and not TWENTY EIGHT. It's shorter runtime but still. My patience might run off before reaching the good point.

So far, watching Nonny Nutcha's forehead covered with pimples and Krissada's middle aged face is not doing it for me... Apart from these two, there's a large load of side characters (never a good sign) and none of them interests me. Let's see if with time this develops into enjoyable story... or if I drop it.

Epi 8... Scene of nang'ek & pra'ek playing on the beach. They look totally like lovers, lying there together in the sand.. Gah! Then the camera shows us detail of their faces. It's actually some middle-aged uncle with his... niece? Startled me:) Seriously, I'm kinda having trouble watching this. I watch lakorns because I seek out romance, but this couple makes me cringe. And it's only watching them, or 100 people around that are extra. So many I got them confused. So I did not bother. James Ruangsak is better looking and better acting than Krissada but it's not him who got cast as an overly aged pra'ek... Result being, I skipped all the scenes featuring the side-characters. But then I had to watch the main couple and I wanted to skip that, too... Where do I skip TO, here?? Only option, next lakorn.

The storyline would be good, if Yu Shu Xin wasn’t playing the main girl, I don’t know if it’s the way her character is written but she’s childish and annoying as hell, in the way shes trying to pretend to be more stupid than she actually is I don’t really understand the logic there, and why the screenwriters would come up with something like that. I couldn't finish watching Fairy and the Devil for this exact reason, because her acting was just the same in that too. I’m not certain if that’s the only ways she can act or if she’s always given parts like this but so far what I’ve seen from her she’s only able to play this kind of role, the silly, whiny little girl who’s always acting cute, regardless her old age, it may sound sour of me saying all this, but I don’t think she should be acting if she can’t be versatile regarding her emotions. A good example of this is Raba, she’s great at being cute and not in a cringy way, but also able to play in a strong stoic warrior, or even go as far as to pretend to be a boy. She’s never the same by the end of each series, her character development is always massive, and I don’t only mean this by her getting scripts with roles where she’s got great character developments in the end. But in the way she plays each roles different by the end. While with Yu Shu Xin I don’t see this at all, I’m fact she never changes. Her character always stuck in that naive, childish way, even if her character is supposed to be going through something tragic, such as when she was playing in Fairy and the Devil, her characters doesn’t come though genuine when she’s trying to be stoic to me, for some reason.

On the other hand, Vin Zhang is an amazing actor, and as I said the story would’ve been great to watch if the female lead was played by someone else.

Lust after thy neighbour

This may have begun on TikTok but its transition to YouTube has changed the format to full-screen 30 minute episodes so there will be 6 episodes. That said, it's a welcome change from most Philippino BL series with a thankfully much reduced cast of essential characters, the main ones being 18yo Charlie who is captivated by his new handsome, older and mysterious neighbour, Mico, who we often see topless and he has a great smile. The series revolves around Charlie trying to involve Mico in his life, an endeavour encouraged by his unusually gay supportive father. I have no complaints about the sound, dialogue, acting and production values. A very likeable series and should be on your watch list.

Drama Tropes Played Well...so far...

What I really liked about this drama is how they were able to play the gender bender trope perfectly. A strong indepedendent female ceo and a gentle nice doctor trapped in a marriage because of a debt. The chemistey between the main FL and ML is off the charts. I like how she plays the aggeessive ceo but in her married life she's actually naive. The main ML is just too nice of a guy but he's really charming and endearing in a way.

The SML is in an awkward position honestly but compared to the thai version where the uncle is really a biological uncle this would be acceptable. I just hope in this version he won't act on his feelings and move on from the hopeless infatutlation. The SFL is adorable in her imaginary world I wish thugh she won't be too hurt when she realizes that the SML might be using her as a cover or that her love is actually one sided.

Another thing to mention is the ex fiancee is also a badass CEO whose actually embodying the saying "hell has no fury like a woman scorned" and what I like about her is herbanger is directed to her ex and not the FL which is also another difference from the thai version.

All in all this is not even halfway through so I hope in the latter part the story won't spiral down.

I left this drama just after 4 episodes. It was a real pain to watch, and not for Jang Hyuk, I really like his acting skills but the main girl was terrible. Boring, even if the storyline is pretty interesting and somehow new, yet in the first 4 episode, everything was based on nothing and nothing goes on.

Horrible nightmare. Hateful male leads (U__U)

This did not deliver on its promise of sweet dreams. Aside from being such a draggy drama, its very cringey as well. I hated the dream sequences where the ML was either a coward or a scumbag. I also hated the ML and the SML in the real word of this drama. Both of them did not protect the FL which is already bad enough but they even led others to bully her which really made them hateful. The ML also forced the FL to sign a contract where she cannot even resign. Isn't that illegal? FlowerPlus is such a toxic company. Sending bloody packages to coworkers because of jealousy? Torturing a new hire to remove thorns from roses with bare hands and making them copy the company values manual just because you don't like them? Group harassment of an employee because of a rumor? And with a boss (ML) who likes to torture his assistant (FL)? All these are treated like it's all fine and dandy after just a simple apology. Who would even want to stay here IRL? The antics of the FL were usually cliched and stupid. So no, I won't waste anymore of my time to finish all 48 episodes, I don't think I can bear it.
