Hey Beans. I feel like I don’t know anyone here anymore. I think I might possibly be making a drama watching comeback. Maybe.
First couple weeks of Crash Course in Romance are entertaining me well. However, I need less Sky Castle-type mom drama and more side dishes.
I’ve also started One Spring Night now that my Pretty Noona ptsd is no longer raging. Only took four years to forget the visceral rage towards that back half of that drama. Anyway, three episodes into OSN, I’m enjoying it Well, minus the soundtrack.
Egads! You should definitely post here more! No way to know people if you’re not around to talk to them, right?
I’m personally a bit mystified by the Crash Course in Romance hype but it’s definitely popular around here.
My main issue lately is that I have canceled almost all my subscriptions and am left with just Netflix for kdramas because money. On the bright side, I’ve watched more non-kdramas on other services my parents have! I have no issue accessing things, uh, less legally, but it just takes a lot more effort. Luckily, lots of the dramas Netflix posted in their upcoming in 2023 video interest me, so there’s that!
I haven’t seen One Spring Night but it’s been on my list for ages! Be Melodramatic is finally coming to US Netflix soon so I’ll probably watch that next, but OSN should definitely be bumped up on my list if you’re enjoying it.
Ooooh, I’ve been meaning to pick up Be Melodramatic, so that’s good news.
OSN is very contemplative so far. No one seems to be an outright villain, (well, except for the brother-in-law, but you can’t have a drama without someone being slimy, probably) and no one is perfect either. I like that. Plus, I like dramas about people with regular lives and regular jobs and regular relationships. Chaebols are fun sometimes, but I like to relate to characters lives once in while.
@egads my library is made of windows. Windows on every side. I’m there from day to night. The sun doesn’t exist. We’ve been absorbed into some creepy gray blob.
I didn’t hate it… Or maybe yes. What I’m sure is I didn’t like it, it had too many boring moments, I couldn’t stand the female lead, I got tired of the two songs…
Maybe because of that, I have not watched Something in the rain yet.
I really liked OSN, and I didn’t expect to after Pretty Noona. It took several episodes not to viscerally react to the FL’s mom character just because she’s played by the same actress, though. The soundtrack does get repetitive but nowhere near that HULK SMASH level – and the songs are better, at least to my taste.
One Spring Night is a favourite of mine. While it definitely has its flaws (the super repetitive soundtrack comes to mind), I think the positives by far trump the negatives. Crash Course in Romance has been fun so far and I hope they lean into that rather than the murder/conniving moms subplots.
Welcome back!
I quite liked One Spring night. It was less ragey definitely. The social issues can be upsetting but the drama itself was good. It was hard to see the same mom is Noona in this drama initially. But they complete cast her in a reverse role I think.
In many ways this drama felt like the opposite of pretty Noona. (My memory sucks but that’s what I remember now).
Welcome back! I know how it feels when you’re not around for a while and then you come back and you barely know anyone. Still, this is the best place to be to enjoy live watching. I missed commenting here last year, trying to change things in 2023.
I loved One Spring Night, and I was very cautious after Noona, so I also get this feeling. As for the OST, you will surely feel the change upon the wind, understand that you really want to be curious and free, and that seasons change, they go away and come back again, and you may get tired of how you feel… Yes, really tired.

Welcome back, Egads!
I still watch the first 8 waaaaaay to regularly.
But I did not like OSN. I can’t stand the lead actress.

The first 8 episodes of Noona capture the tingly something of new attraction so so well. We don’t speak of what happened later.

It’s very cold here right now, so that might work in my favor.
I’ll keep you updated on my opinion. You seem to be an outlier so far, but maybe I’ll join your rage fest and want to burn it all down. I hope not.

The first 8 of Something in the Rain are adorable and swoony and comes to a natural stop. You can safely watch those!

Yeah. I’m not really feeling the need for scheming parents and serial killers right now. We can lean away from that.

4.5 episodes in and my head just keeps repeating “Seasons change…. ” At least it’s not as bad as Stand by Your Man. Ugh.
