First of all I wanna know WHY THE HELL ISN'T NETFLIX AIRING FLOWER OF EVIL?? It has sooo much potential to be a hit show. I watched the first two episodes and was like dammmnnn I'm hooked!

As for this new drama I'll be checking for my girl Jessica/Sodam but romcoms aren't really my cup of tea tbh (Cloy being the one exception) so Idk if I'll stick to it. Also as I said on Discord I'm afraid of falling for cult homeboy/Korea's Tom Cruise PBG 😶

Yo i think Flower of Evil is going to be soooooo good. Lee Joonki is such a compelling actor.

On the bright side if you do fall for PBG, he's going to the army soon so in the ~18 months he's gone you'll find someone else lol

are we going to get the full season or half a season with no clear date for the second half (aka hate-watch Love Alarm or true-love Hospital Playlist.)

Lol it's being aired simultaneously in Korea, so it's a full 16 episodes. I was so pissed when I found out love alarm was being separated into seasons. Like, excuse me, Netflix, that is not how k-dramas work!! I thought maybe they had filmed everything like my first first love and was just going to wait a few months to release it, but nooo. They didn't film until a few months ago and now it won't air till next year...

But wait... How do you feel about love alarm's characters/plot?

I think I'm relieved that a conclusion will be aired.

I honestly watched it on a whim because the plot seemed so ridiculous and contrived. It had its cute moments, but I was annoyed at JoJo's reason for breaking up with Sunho (can't remember his name lol) and how she wants to "try" with the other guy because "he's a nice guy." I was like pfft that's mean to lead someone on like that. I also hated Kim So Hyun's middle parted bangs. It looked so bad???? Her hair stylist must hate her.

The breakup made no sense? Or dating the other guy, especially since she wants to reverse her alarm so it rings again??? But them liking each other was never shown, only told, such bad writing, so it made no sense to start with. Why is KSH in this show?

I remember full on hate watching it and not stopping, so there is something there, but it's sooooo nonsensical and overdramatic. I think I must have felt like this the first time I watched BoF, but now I know better than to think I like it! But I want to know how it ends, hopefully through reading a recap. Argh.

Yeah, the relationship went from 1 to 10 so fast. I kinddd of get it since they're in high school and it can be just that simple and superficial, I guess, so I let it go.

lol it really is dramatic. Basically watched it for the sake of watching something simple and mindless. Yeah, I want to know how it ends, too, since I invested a good chunk of time into it already. Also thought it was weird that after the two of them got into that motorbike accident, they didn't tell us what happened to Sunho for awhile...I was like ???? did he lose is memory???? what happened?!?!?

Did you watch My First First Love? WAYYYYYYYYY better than Love Alarm.

i'm really excited to see park sodam in a drama but from the teasers too romcom focused... maybe i'll give it a try

There is always Cinderella and the 4 knights.... Which I do not recommend.

lol i've added it to my list on netflix ages ago fully aware that i will probably never watch it

lmao I did a rewatch recently because I was bored (forwarded through a good chunk). It's bad like BoF bad, but maybe not to that degree. It's got all your typical tropes and stuff. Kind of reminded me of You're Beautiful (but You're Beautiful is way better). It's kind of cute and silly, so if you want to watch something mindless and stupidly dramatic, go for it. lol

We could’ve had Jang Ki Yong instead....

You should be thankful that he turned this down. I don't think it would have suited him at all

I just want to see him being romantic again 😭

Every day I get saddened considering what we could of had. But to be fair, dude turned down this show (easy ratings win/popularity win since its gonna be on Netflix) for drivel Born Again which flopped hard.

I much much prefer Jang Ki Yong (looks wise/acting wise/etc) over Park Bo Gum le sigh :((

See, his drama filmography is not sth I would be into because i’m picky about cast AND storyline. Born Again has LSH who I don’t like looking at lol (sorry) and I am heavily putting off My Mister bc i’m not fond of IU. The others just seem like not my thing. So when I saw he turned this down, even if it wouldn’t suit, I was just thinking DAMN HE COULD’VE BEEN PAIRED WITH PSD!!!!

But i’ll be patient lool.

His filmography is very sparse. Watch Come and Hug Me (Viki has it), he is marvelous in that show. It shows how growing up with a serial killer father has affected his life, and how he tries to overcome that. Search:WWW is also great too, female led show about women getting shit done, and the men are just there to lean on/kiss/gawk at. He and the female lead have a mature and realistic relationship in that show.

Your missing out on My Mister, its one of the best K-dramas ever made (There's not many that are top tier level imo). IU transforms there, and no one else could've played the role. Give it a try, (P.S Jang Ki Yong is more of a supporting arc, but he plays a key role).

I have watched Search: WWW hence why I would like more romantic roles from him lol but less of the angst! I will give Come and Hug Me a try once i’m done with my list.

I’ll definitely be watching My Mister I just have to get over myself lol, it’s on my list (though last).
