Meh. The romcom looks particularly trope-y, like a WWWSK with the temporary blindness trope thrown in to make it even more unoriginal.

I haven't watched the earlier series in the Rescue Me and Voice dramas, and they aren't sounding interesting enough to make it something I want to see.

I need to find some more classic K and C dramas to watch.

The Secret Life of My Secretary- Kim Young Kwang. In a Rom Com... that I don't like much on premise alone and I don't know the Director or Writer or any of their dramas well slash at all. ARGH. WHY KYK WHY. Then again I watched all of Father Living in My House lol.

Abyss- sigh. I like both main leads well enough and the premise sounds fun but the director... the director. I haven't finished either High School King of Savvy OR Oh My Ghostess (even for Ziggy and Seul Gi) and both shows I have fundamental issues with thematically and story wise, I started Tomorrow with you for the leads, never picked it up again because of my bad relationship with time travel, and I vehemently dislike The Smile Has Left Your Eyes aka Hundred Million Stars From the Sky. And the writer has one credit and I don't know it...
So will I be able to finish this since I'm live watching? Probably. Will I like how it ends? ... There is a 3 for 3 chance I wont... oh dear.

Rescue Me 2- never seen the first one despite good reviews. Probably wont watch the second one by default even though I love SUFBB.

I watched the first episode of The Secret Life of My Secretary and watching Kim Young Kwang's accident that causes his faceblindness? Too soon dramaworld, it is still too soon to have a Lookout flashback.

Anyway, it's nothing we haven't seen before, but because I really like KYK I'll give it a few more episodes. Besides, I wasn't expecting anything revolutionary here, and perhaps, just like Her Private Life it will be a mindless and entertaining watch.

Immediately following The Secret Life of My Secretary, I pressed play on Abyss, and Ahn Hyo-Seop's resemblance to Kim Young Kwang is messing with me. Maybe it's the hair. Anyway, first episode seems fine, but I'm not entirely sold yet.

Watched the first episode of Secret Life of My Secretary As Well. Cheesy, tropey- cheap. But The kind that I like to relax too. Like easy-breezy.
And Boy, are the leads so attractive to look at!

Gonna also try Abyss for ouri Chan!

I'm searching for a mindless, fun watch to balance the sad and heavy Nokdu Flower and Beautiful World. And Secret Life of My Secretary seems promising on that front. I miss Jin Ki-joo, and Kim Young-kwang in a romcom? Yes, please. I'll check it out later this evening. Hopefully it will be entertaining enough.

i have some doubts about Abyss but i love the two leads so much that I suspect i will forgive a whole lot just for their sake. bring it on!

I'm surprised I wasnt expecting Abyss to be on Netflix so soon, I thought it was going to be delayed.

Probably won't watch tonight but curious about it.

I have face blindness. And it kind of bugs me to have it (mis) used for a trope. I have never seen it portrayed accurately in film. So I'll skip that show. But I'm going to watch Abyss.

I watched both Abyss and The Secret Life of My Secretary today and enjoyed both. I especially liked the 100 Million Stars cameo with Seo In Guk and Jung So Min together again. Of the two, Abyss was a bit harder to get into as it wasn't coming together smoothly for me. There were some rough edges that never did get refined. We'll see what happens tomorrow. With the Secret Life of My Secretary, I was delighted to see Kim Young Kwang back on screen as his acting always has a way of pulling me in even though I only intended to be watching for the entertainment, but stay for the intensity of him. I'm not familiar with the female main lead in that one, but am enjoying her so far. Yes, I know, I also was not at all into watching anything about facial blindness, (seems totally ridiculous to me) but, I suppose if I can "believe" zillions residents of Dramaland, S Koreans get stabbed every day when I personally have never met a single person in my life who has gotten stabbed - - - then I guess I can believe that Dramaland does occasionally get infected with bouts of "facial amnesia" where people can no longer recognize faces and seem to have also forgotten the sound of their voices.

If Voice 3 is anything like Voice 1 and Voice 2, I'm sold. Both of those were definitely worth the time spend. The leads did a great job in Voice 2 and I look forward to seeing them together again.

While I did enjoy the original Rescue Me, I don't think I am up for another "season" of the show. At least not right now. Maybe when the mood comes around for dark and desperate days...

There have been so many mismatched OTPs lately, so I am really looking forward to Abyss and The Secret Life of My Secretary. Park Bo-young and Ahn Hyo-seop and Kim Young-kwang and Jin Ki-joo look so good together. Park Bo-young does not age.

Abyss sounds exactly like Rain's Come back, Ahjussi. The one guy was a gangster and was resurrected as a cute and petite woman. The person who came back in Rain's body was super impressed by his choco-abs and apparently the size of his penis. I distinctly remember the scene where he was showing the woman/former gangster his abs and then they both peek down his pants and are very impressed and giggly by what they see.
That was such an underrated drama. I cried buckets in the end.

I'm definitely going to watch Voice 3! I've been faithful to the first two seasons and I'm curious to see what happens next. Lee Hana and Lee Jin Wook were an interesting pair in Season 2. I want more of their partnership to develop in this 3rd season.

I want to check out Abyss too..... but my plate is overflowing.
I'll wait to see if the reviews are good. Its poster is so pretty btw!

No longer a fan of rom-coms, but love creepy thrillers. So what's on Viki and Netflix, the only two sites I watch? The rom-coms. What's the two I want to watch but aren't on either? The creepy thrillers.
And yes, I'm in a complaining mood this evening.

I can't believe Rescue Me 2 is starting so soon! Loved the first season, and I hope the quality is the same.

Voice 3, sigh, I'm disappointed that they continue season 2 and not try to get the spirit of first season right. What's the point of doing multi seasons and omitting exactly what make the show successful.

I'm not interested by the rom-coms, I'm not a fan of their castings, neither their stories. Face blindness? Beautiful Inside is not so old yet. Switching bodies? In Kdramas, fantastic stories have no good reputation...

I'm excited to see Voice 3. In Voice 2, I really like to see the heroin to doubt and have her "power" used against her.

I'm curious to see how well the Rescue me 2 will hold up. What I'm afraid of is that this one is going to suffer from what I call a "sequel" syndrome. No matter if this drama will be better or worse than the previous season, some people are going to compare them anyway.

Rescue Me is one of my top dramas so I will definitely be giving the second season a try. I hope it is as good as the 1st season. Please be good. Please be good.

I really enjoyed Voice but not seen Voice 2 yet. I have it ready to watch just haven't gotten around to it. Since it ended on a cliffhanger I guess it's a good thing I haven't gotten around to it yet!

Abyss looks cute. I like both actors so will give it a try. I don't have high expectations (it's a rom-com which I never have high expectations of) but I could be happily surprised.

Meh to The Secret Life of My Secretary. I am tired of the prickly boss and perfect woman secretary trope and then the additional trope of face-blindness (I can't believe this is a trope!). If the genders were swapped I would watch this in a heartbeat.

I've only seen Abyss but characterizing it as a rom-com is a stretch so far. Was there a single laugh to be had in the first episode?

Only watched Abyss of this bunch. I love this cast and crew immensely and expect to enjoy it.

Just because I know Yoo PD (watched every drama he produced since he debuted with High School King of Savvy), I won’t be judging the script. He lets the actors adlib like no other, and often film uncut for many minutes long until the actor is completely out of words or tears. Depending on actor, this can make or break (SMY🤭) the drama, but for sure it will unpredictable. He’s not a high ratings PD, but the reason great actors like Seo In Guk and Park Bo Young keep going back, because they get to play their skills without limit. So with his dramas, I just watch the actors, closely.

Park Bo-young in another soul-in-strange-body. Last time as a lusty virgin inside a scaredy-cat, this time a beautiful bitch in a minion😅. Just that funeral scene alone was the center of praises. You can really feel her shock, fear and disbelief.

I loved Ahn Hyo-Seop in 30 but 17. He’s not bad so far, but it is apparent being a lead has added pressure to him. And maybe he needs to warmup to Yoo PD’s style, cuz his expression is somewhat by the books. Leading the first episode without Park Bo Young certainly didn’t help.

Long time no see Lee Sung-Jae (since Jealousy Incarnate). Glad he’s back. I love this ahjusshi. He’s gonna be so good at being bad. I know it.

I have a feeling as the drama progresses, it will turn from an OTP act to an ensemble act, cuz  Lee Si Eon is a known scene stealer.

I knew SIG would do a cameo, or something, before the trailers released. The cast has all his favorite Hyungs - Yoo PD, Lee Si Eon, Lee Sung-Jae, and ChoRong from TSHLYE. How delightful I was to see MooKang again, living happily ever after among the stars.

I suspect he proposed the idea of walking out as a dog... it’s so like him to come up with crazy ideas. Especially since he’s played an alien before, the dog form makes this alien different from the previous sideway-walking human form.😂

The only drama will be watching is abyss seems fun so far. Gonna skip the secret life of my secretary.. I hate the male lead and had enough of male bosses and their workers overly done

I tried watching Abyss last night and could only get halfway through. There was just SO much going on and no leadup to Go Se Yeon's character. I am going to give it another chance after hearing some good reviews today, but still very skeptical.

Liking Abyss and Secret/Secretary so far. The characters in Secret have a homey quality to them and all feel like folks one knows. Airy, silly, fun. I did wonder how someone who has faceblindness didn't recognize his friend's voice. Abyss is a bit clunky and fast but feels as if it has a story to tell so i'm in for the long haul. i am relatively easy to please if no second lead female, identity issues, drawn-out unreasonable angst, or birth secret pops up. Hana Lee is my favorite kdrama actress so i'll see most anything she's in.

The rest of the line up seems interesting enough but I am beyond HYPED for Voice 3 since I watched the first two seasons on a week-by-week basis. The cliffhanger of season two literally made me unable to watch any other dramas for a good couple of months because it was so damn stressful lol thriller cop dramas are my ultimate weakness

didn't know rescue me 2 so now it's time to watch. the first season was absolutely bonkers and so depressing and i HATED (or, at least, very much disliked) her parents lol i have never been angrier tbh i loved it!!!!
