  1. 790 EDIT: @Lmangla @MayanEcho @rocat @kokodus @larus Newest developments on the HSH and Hyeri news.... 1) Ok, so now Hyeri came out with a statement on her social media: https://www.allkpop.com/article/2024/03/hyeri-opens-up-about-rumors-of-ryu-joon-yeols-new-relationship-with-han-so-hee-after-their-breakup As expected, she thought they were maybe trying again after their breakup in November, all the while it seems like he has already started dating HSH (which k-netz call a transit love). Which she finds about from the media at the same time as us. No wonder she felt hurt. She was still thinking there was a chance for reconciliation. 2) HSH comes back from Hawaii on her own (the dude already came back earlier). She's all smiles. https://www.allkpop.com/video/2024/03/han-so-hee-returns-to-korea-from-hawaii-amid-swirling-dating-controversy K-netz comments: https://netizenbuzz.blogspot.com/2024/03/hyeri-releases-statement-apologizing.html and https://netizenbuzz.blogspot.com/2024/03/han-so-hee-returns-from-hawaii.html
  2. Thanks for your support, chingu! There are so many of us on this forum who have a sweet spot for Kwakkie (not sure really how he got his nickname, but he's had it for 10 years already) and are hoping that he would get more lead roles. @agenth @backstreetboysfan @sweetroad @Lmangla @Sleepy Owl being a few of them along with myself Even with the few scenes I saw him in during ep 1, he was doing an amazing job. Unfortunately, though, it seems he was again typecast in a "happy go lucky" role.
  3. Wow! That's a long hiatus. Welcome back I don't know, chingu. I just felt extremely uncomfortable with the leads' dynamics in ep 1. I would even go as far as call it abuse what the ML was going through.... I don't find it funny the way he was being treated by both her and her family. She wasn't lifting a finger to protect him from his family's antics. And then the ending part where she reveals she is terminally ill and the preview showing him groveling at her feet - all the while we get a love triangle introduced? I just lost it at that. Dude deserves a divorce and he needs to get some self-respect. I am definitely taking a break from this drama until I see / hear the direction this drama is going to take. I just seriously dislike the FL right now. Haven't been this upset about a drama since The Last Empress. @Lmangla sweetie can vouch how serious it is if I am comparing a drama with The Last Empress - lol Am gonna check out all of his scenes later, even if I decide not to pick up this drama again. Too bad he got beat up by his sister. Also another reason, I don't like her. Am assuming it is going down the melodrama route? Doesn't excuse her behavior towards her husband. That's my opinion. On a side note, if the roles were reversed, am assuming more people would be up at arms of how the wife was treated during her marriage? Just wondering? Kwakkie is this guy: Kwak Dong Yeon, nicknamed Kwakkie by his fans back in the day when he debuted Been following his career since I saw him for the first time in 2014 in Modern Farmer.
  4. My favorite LMH drama is probably Personal Taste. He is not playing a complete AH in that one Let @Lmangla @confusedheart and me know once the FL decides to stop abusing her husband. Not because he's groveling for her love, but because she realizes she's been treating him in a shitty manner. I hope he divorces her and her family, and doesn't look back. Am actually thinking about checking out this drama. I saw a lot of comments online where people were actually saying it's a better drama than both Queen of Tears and Wedding Impossible. Am still debating whether I should check out Joo Won oppa's new drama, The Midnight Studio, because its ratings keeps increasing and it's getting a lot of rave reviews. @sadthe1st are you watching it? 792
  5. Am pretty sure it's gonna turn melodrama. This is a writer whose work I haven't particularly liked before, and tbh, a lot of her dramas have had "bittersweet" endings. So the FL in this drama is terminally ill. Yet I think they gave her a 1% chance of survival. Normally I would say that they're gonna use that 1% in the end, but I think it would be more fitting for the ML to be set free. I can see why he wished her dead though.... Aigoo, trying to stay awake here - my jetlag is still very strong. 792
  6. It's the same for me. You know I watch a lot of makjang. Especially Thai barf lakorns where the ML is a cheating scumbag. Sometimes the wife too - lol. But there you know what you're getting. There is going to be angst, barf and more barf. There will be some kind of redemption and the bad guys will get what's coming for them. There will be an adequate ending. But here in this drama, we are already told that they're gonna fall in love with each other again, and there won't be a sufficient arc where the FL will get her comeuppance for how she has allowed her husband to be treated. It's a romcom, a romance. So the ambiance and feeling should be very different. @kokodus Yes, am sure there are some reasons why the FL is not happy with her husband either. Maybe there was a miscarriage. Maybe there was a misunderstanding. But she has more responsibility for him than he has. She is his boss, he is living in her family's house, he is being thrown around like a ragdoll by his family. So whatever the reason for her contempt for him was, she should have talked to him about it and not become an icy princess (wanted to use a worse term for her here - lol) who allows her husband to be treated like dirt by her family. Hi @4evrkdrama dongsaeng! I started on Wedding Impossible and Queen of Tears today. Dropped both within 3 episodes. Joo Won oppa's drama does intrigue me. Mainly for his abs 788
  7. You know what is the similarity in these both dramas? Both MLs being treated like absolute dirt. And I don't appreciate Kwakkie being bullied by his sister either. This lady is not a "strong female lead". She's a bully. 784
  8. Maybe my @Lmangla sweetie and I are taking this seriously, because IRL this would be unacceptable. Regardless if it's a man or a woman. How many times have I been the only one on drama threads on this forum who has criticized the tsundere ML and actively petitioned for the FL NOT to end up together with him? More than I can count. I guess I would have been happier had we seen an actual divorce, some time for both leads to mature and then maybe a time jump and reconnection later down the line? But here the ML is being thrown into an impossible situation where his wife is terminally ill. And what do they do? They throw in a competitor - a 2nd ML who will try to woo the FL as well. I mean, HOW MUCH MORE PITIFUL can you make the ML? This drama is getting on my nerves. Almost as much as The Last Empress! I 100% agree with this, sweetie. It's eerie really and that's what makes it feel like spousal abuse on a whole different level than the makjang dramas we're watching. 778
  9. Probably why I don't watch daily dramas then 776
  10. Exactly! Didn't like those type of dramas back then, and don't like them now. The difference here is that this couple has been MARRIED for 3 years and this is all going down even AFTER the marriage! So it's even worse that he is being treated like that by his own wife. I just don't know why, but this drama REALLY rubs me the wrong way. It's not cute, and I don't want to continue watching it. I know @confusedheart dropped it too. I might watch Kwakkie's scenes later. She is complicit in bullying her own husband! So did I but read reviews that she wasn't faking it. 772
  11. Glad to hear I wasn't the only one who found the whole premise troubling. Let me just ask y'all this. What if the roles had been reversed? What if the chaebol heir was a man, and his wife came from humble backgrounds and was treated like this by him and his family? And then he told her that he has 3 months to live and she breaks down in tears and is ready to forgive him and make him fall in love with her again? Wouldn't y'all be like, dump his RickRoll'D anyway? Just because he is a guy who is in abusive relationship doesn't make it less right. Dude, run! And yes, he forgot to use fillers on his neck wrinkles.... I don't care! She left him to fend for himself. And he has no self-respect staying in that marriage. Has been a long time since I've found a FL to be THIS unlikeable in a drama. 768
  12. I just watched the first episode. I absolutely adored Kwakkie's role in it. Again showing his acting range. But sad to say, I have serious doubts if I want to continue this drama. I really didn't like seeing Hyun Woo being a doormat. And I suspect we're gonna continue to see him being that judging from the end of ep 1.
  13. It was very different. And it was also very different to the Japanese and the Chinese ones. The main story was similar but they put another spin on it. @sweetroad @Lmangla @kingpin @Ameera Ali @kokodus YA! I just watched the first episode of Queen of Tears. The FL character is insufferable. Am not finding her the least bit interesting or sympathetic. (am sounding like @agenth now - lol ) While I absolutely LOVED Kwakkie in his role (showing excellent acting skills as always), I just cannot see the doormat ML be the one who is groveling to reignite the old flame, when she clearly is the one who is more to blame for the demise of the marriage. He is in an abusive relationship, and she's doing nothing to protect him from her family. Sorry, but the ML character should have more integrity and self-respect. If he was ready to divorce her, the last scene of ep 1 felt totally out of character and not at all in sync with what was transpiring earlier in the episode. Now we're gonna see him trying to make her fall in love with him, all the while they're introducing her ex-bf who he's gonna compete against. What kind of crap is that? Just go live your life with someone who actually values you, your background and your family. It's a pass for me. Sorry Kwakkie. 766
  14. Oh c'mon, chingu! You can rant about the FL to us this time. I don't like her either @larus @Lmangla @MayanEcho @rocat Latest Hyeri / Han So Hee news.... Guy comes back from Hawaii sans HSH: https://www.koreaboo.com/news/ryu-jun-yeol-hides-face-return-hawaii-without-han-so-hee/ Aaaannnddd... In other news HSH wiped her blog clean: https://www.koreaboo.com/news/actress-han-sohee-blog-controversial-relationship-reveal-ryu-junyeol/ Am not surprised. She was digging her own grave with the stuff she was writing - looks like maybe her agent / manager was able to convince her to stop? She was responding to comments and it was clear that she was reacting with emotions (which is never a good idea in situations like these). She e.g. said that the guy had been single since June (according to news reports she read - why is she not asking him directly btw?), and there were no news like that in June... She should have been asking her new BF when he broke up instead of citing news she had read - that didn't even exist. Actually, in August there was an article where both Hyeri and the guy confirmed that they were still dating. It's blatantly obvious that it is starting to look like the guy let HSH take the fall for this. Shouldn't he have been the one to clarify all these rumors instead of HSH? 762
