I found episode 14 of MMH kinda entertaining. Not to the level I used to enjoy the show, but a marked improvement on the last 2 episodes. The key is switching my brain off and just watching messy characters being messy. Minimal amount of Yura in this episode also helped, both the character and Boa’s acting are boring me.
Make-up and styling is important for a character as it is oftentimes used s a short-cut to convey their personality without any dialogue. Don’t know what brief was given for this character.
The best worst proposal in kdramaland goes to MMH. I love the details in this scene: the deflated balloon, the messy nutella sandwich with the nutella jar and dirty knife still on the table, the cream stains on table and the cherry on top: the Me(a)rry me paper :))
I low key judge Ji Won for saying yes, dude couldn’t even be bothered to get a new piece of paper.
Seriously. (a) How are you supposed to eat the half with the nutella smeared all over the top? Where are you supposed to grab it? (b) I decided the filling in the sandwich here was potato chips (or maybe scrambled eggs), and I’m sticking with it.
Worst…Proposal…EVAR.
Of course, I’m not sure being proposed to by this guy again only this time it’s all conflated with the affection of some other guy (“Spring Day”) was all that more inspiring!!!! 😅
I also found Ji-won’s apparent enjoyment of those details odd, as if she didn’t remember that the man actually doing the proposing is the abusive jerkface who will eventually murder her.
I have to think on this more, but I found these episodes more frustrating than anything else. Maybe it’s just that both the FL and ML feel trapped in a fate that’s doomed to repeat itself no matter what they do, but there was a thread of hopelessness that really diluted the whole empowerment theme, not to mention the romance.
I think her enjoyment is mostly an act as it was not a private proposal at all. It was all for the benefit of Soomin, who was right there watching. Min Hwan is not all that appealing on his own so Ji Won must hype him up in order for Soomin to want to steal him. But yeah the cat and spring day details were a bit odd as it seems a confesion from JiHyuk, but merged with that dudes proposal. Maybe that’s more a birthday present, since it was also her birthday.
I can see that, but the part I’m talking about is when she’s facing away from everyone else, staring at the sky, and smiling with what appears to be genuine joy. Now, that could just be joy at realizing that her plan is still in motion, or Ji-hyuk’s obvious devotion, but still, it didn’t sit right with me.
When the “new” proposal scene started and the drones went up, I thought Ji-hyuk had simply set Min-hyun up with the tech for Ji-won’s sake. I even thought he might have bought the ring! (Which would have been weirrrd, but I guess that was where my kind was!)
But, much to my surprise, the whole office was there at this proposal???? Wae? Why?
So then her smile at the beginning got recontextualized from something that might have been about what Ji-hyuk had done for her into something that was far more performative…she had to look like she wanted this, in front of Su-min, especially!!!
Your guess of filling seems plausible for that guy and I choose to believe it’s true.
The spring day proposal was odd as it’s about her and the other guy, but being proposed by this dude again in a grand event was needed to make him all that more appealing to Soomin since them having an affair was not enough to get rid of him.
Looking for Tell Me That You Love Me spoilers. My question might be a spoiler as well, at least for the Japanese version
——————————————————————————————————————————
Is there cheating in the korean version? I read there was in the japanese one and if this one is the same I wont bother with it.
Ep 11 case wasn\’t the most riveting, but Young Woo and Jun Ho remain adorable so squeee. Curious about how will Dad react to them. A Truck of Doom or two I can cope with, but that Boston folder being there like Chekov\’s gun has got me worried we are heading for one of the most infuriating tropes in kdramaland.
I certainly hope they avoid that trope but am not hopeful. If they have to do it, I hope they take the Our Beloved Summer route where there is no break up, and they visit and communicate the whole time.
Crash Landing On You – I just started episode 4 and I can\’t with the female leads behaviour. I know it\’s played for laughs but it\’s just too unrealistic that someone in her situation would be that demanding, entitled and sassy with not one but 5 North Korean officers that she just met. Also reckless. I do mostly like the show and Seri as a character but someone behaving like that in such a situation is as believable as the CGI they use.
Scandals don\’t really affect my enjoyment of actors past dramas, you have to separate the art from the artist or there wouldn\’t be much left to watch. Same as how someone playing a villain doesn\’t mean they are evil in real life, someone playing the sweet lead doesn\’t make them a good person, but people tend to project. I assume behind the public image most are messy at best anyway. However I might choose not to support any future work, especially in cases where people have comitted more extreme offenses.
Haha..Yes… I can definitely can separate character with real life persona. I usually like the actor because I love their acting and the way the potray the character I Love. And I mostly stick with it, hehe …
Not sure what to make of the Kim Seon Ho scandal, while trashy it\’s his private life. But that\’s why I mostly stick with liking the characters they play rather than the actors themselves. Fictional men are better.
It is scary how one post can destroy someone life. I think the main problem is that K-media made him as the most pure man in the earth but we all know there is no such that.
For the sake of the other cast and crew I\’m glad Kim Seon Ho scandal rumours started after Hometown Cha Cha Cha finished airing. Also for the drama itself, so we can have a finished product without any emergency cast or script change. If true he can now face consequences without ruining the work of others.
I second this.
irrespective of what the outcome would be.. he is innocent or not.. I really felt relieved that HoemCha dint have to face the fate of River where moon rises.. I really felt bad for that dramas cast n crew…
I really hate the dead wife/girlfriend /first love trope so much. One can\’t compete with a ghost. I hope that\’s not the direction a certain drama is going.
A male lead who lost his wife and child a few years ago would be too much for a rom-com. I don’t see how writer can be THAT tone deaf.
I think this was the family of Do Shik’s friend/colleague. Before the photo scene, Do Shik talked with café owner about how jealous must be people who don’t have dads. I believe, he was talking about the kid of his dead friend, rather than himself.
Had zero interest in watching \”Mad For Each Other\” but decided to give it a try after reading beanies positive comments about it and ended up really liking it. It had good storytelling and a surprisingly decent take on mental health issues. It got a little over the top at the end but still good
I\’m pretty sure Oh My Ladylord was marketed as a rom com and the first episode I saw looked like a rom com, but it\’s actually more of a fantasy melo? I\’m confused.
It is far from heartwarming. It is a hot mess beyond any comprehension. Please, do not watch it. Watching paint dry would be a better use of your time.
I can’t agree more with Lakes. Please don’t watch. There’s something rom com up to episode 6 and then it’s a mess and not even gorgeous Nana and LMK makes it worth watching.
And never trust this writer again.
End of disclaimer.
I know right? We’re so focus on 2nd lead that never get the girl as the “sad(dest) boy” and forgot about him whose let alone get the girl, hes rarely alive by the end of the drama.
(He got package deal at the end of never twice. Its weekend drama and i skipped almost everything except him and yeolmu scenes 🤣🤣)
It sounds like he had a cute role in Never Twice, might check it out. But I still hope he gets a lead soon in a weekday drama. He’s got the acting chops for it.
He’s wonderful isn’t he? I’ve watched Moonlight several times, love it when he walks past the archery boards and the arrows miss him! He was only 19 when he played Kim Byung-yeon!
I could kinda understand Joseon Exorcist getting cancelled as that show at least aired it\’s premiere and the issues they took with it were based on something they actually saw, but the petition against Snowdrop I can\’t understand. For all we know the drama could tackle that difficult period in korean history in a sensibile manner. At this point they are mad about something they don\’t have confirmation about, as you know, the drama hasn\’t aired one minute yet.
Till date, my biggest pet peeve about Snowdrop is them casting Jisoo as the FL. They are setting g her up for massive backlash and depriving other actresses of a genuine opportunity. I love Jisoo but acting as a lead without doing supporting roles first is a big no for me

Day15: Secondary characters you will never forget
Han Ji Pyeong from Start Up because it was one of those lighting in a bottle moments where the right character meets the right actor and now I know what’s it like to have second lead syndrome. Lee Jang Woo and Im Hwi from When The Weather Is Fine because I would love to have them as my friends. In a drama full of reserved characters they were outspoken and fun but still caring and loyal. Moon Sang Tae from It’s Okay To Not Be Okay because that was some great acting and he was the best big brother (although he was more of a lead than secondary character)
2020 Round Up
Day 12 – the “oldie” that you loved:
I watched more older dramas this year than I did new releases so it’s hard to pick just one. I narrowed it down to 3, in no particular order: The Secret Life Of My Secretary The Package Search:WWW
I went into The Secret life of my secretary expecting fluff but got more depth than I was expecting. Particularly liked that they treated his condition seriously. (Also the male lead looked really good in the suits)
#2020 Round Up Day 9– The drama you watched just because and ended up loving
This too was going to be Do Do Sol Sol La La Sol… and then that ending happened. So instead I’m going to take a risk and pick a drama I’m only halfway through (I checked the ending and it looks alright). Going in I was sure I might end up dropping this drama because I read a description that said it was a melodrama and I don’t do melos. Also the word boring came up a few times when reading about this drama,so really the only reason I clicked play was because of it’s winter setting which seemed perfect for this time of year. And indeed, it is perfect for a winter watch. I ended up loving it’s characters and that sense of community it gives. It’s slow paced but not boring, in my opinion. It’s really heartwarming, like a warm cup of tea on a cold winter day. Without further ado I present you I’ll Find You On A Beautiful Day / When The Weather Is Fine
I would call this drama anything but boring, is such a warm and heartfelt drama. So many emotions come to mind when I talk about it! It’s true it has a very slow path, but it’s never boring,
I’m glad you like it. It’s one of my top 3 dramas of the year.
Enjoy. And don’t worry about the ending, as it’s a good one.
I have to sayo, though, I felt the last two episodes were not up to the rest of the drama, but it happens to me almost in every drama, as if I didn’t want to let go…
I agree about the last two episodes…it felt a tad bit rushed. But like you, I think part of it was that I didn’t want to let them go. We saw them in winter, but I also wanted to see them in spring, too.
Thank you for the reassurance that the ending is good. I’m used to dramas not being as strong in their last episodes as they started. I’m slowly making my way through it because I don’t want it to end too soon.

Moon Sang Tae from It’s Okay To Not Be Okay because that was some great acting and he was the best big brother (although he was more of a lead than secondary character)

2020 Round Up
Day 12 – the “oldie” that you loved:
I watched more older dramas this year than I did new releases so it’s hard to pick just one. I narrowed it down to 3, in no particular order:
The Secret Life Of My Secretary
The Package

I went into The Secret life of my secretary expecting fluff but got more depth than I was expecting. Particularly liked that they treated his condition seriously. (Also the male lead looked really good in the suits)

#2020 Round Up Day 9– The drama you watched just because and ended up loving
This too was going to be Do Do Sol Sol La La Sol… and then that ending happened. So instead I’m going to take a risk and pick a drama I’m only halfway through (I checked the ending and it looks alright). Going in I was sure I might end up dropping this drama because I read a description that said it was a melodrama and I don’t do melos. Also the word boring came up a few times when reading about this drama,so really the only reason I clicked play was because of it’s winter setting which seemed perfect for this time of year. And indeed, it is perfect for a winter watch. I ended up loving it’s characters and that sense of community it gives. It’s slow paced but not boring, in my opinion. It’s really heartwarming, like a warm cup of tea on a cold winter day. Without further ado I present you I’ll Find You On A Beautiful Day / When The Weather Is Fine

I would call this drama anything but boring, is such a warm and heartfelt drama. So many emotions come to mind when I talk about it! It’s true it has a very slow path, but it’s never boring,
I’m glad you like it. It’s one of my top 3 dramas of the year.
Enjoy. And don’t worry about the ending, as it’s a good one.
I have to sayo, though, I felt the last two episodes were not up to the rest of the drama, but it happens to me almost in every drama, as if I didn’t want to let go…

I agree about the last two episodes…it felt a tad bit rushed. But like you, I think part of it was that I didn’t want to let them go. We saw them in winter, but I also wanted to see them in spring, too.

Thank you for the reassurance that the ending is good. I’m used to dramas not being as strong in their last episodes as they started. I’m slowly making my way through it because I don’t want it to end too soon.
