Do Do Sol Sol La La Sol (2020)

You will be Happy, then sad to just upset at the end

this is the first drama where i actually research who was the screenwriter because they should be ashamed of that ending. Such a great story and then Bam….. ridiculous rush ending. How do you mess up such a great story; You have amazing actors! You want to be happy because it is an happy ending but no……just no. I understand there was an age gap but 5 years? ????. How many people was in that directing team?Did they read the plot? Juno getting sick and going for treatment in the US could be believable; He was a bit scrawny and had some nosebleeds but cancer? It is still ok, just needed more time to work out but the rest is just a no.

BEAUTIFUL DRAMA...

For me Do Do Sol Sol La La Sol is the best drama of 2020.
I don't bother at all with negative comments about the last episode.
the writer has the right to write a play as he wishes.
You have to all admit that Go Ara and Lee Jae Wook have done a great job in this difficult period of the corona virus that every nation is facing.
honestly I enjoyed watching this drama, I laughed a lot I cried but I also fell in love.
Jun and Ra ra deserved their happy ending.
Leukemia is a severe disease, but it is not incurable if it is responded to in a timely and timely manner.
jun believed in himself all the time and knew he had to fight for himself and the person he loved.
every honor Go Ara and Lee Jae Wook on excellent and enchanting chemistry by me the best.
I also want to tell everyone that the OST of this drama is truly wonderful
I hate people who leave negative comments for this wonderful drama.
You better stop because you spoil the mood of others and me personally because I adore this drama.
This drama has brought so much joy and love into my life and it will always remain in my memory and of course I will watch it many more times with my loved ones.
One day when the corona virus situation stabilizes I want to visit Seul and Eunpo (Mokpo) I also want to try South Korean food and get to know their culture better.
And in the end I totally fell in love with Lee Jae Wook he is so handsome and charismatic and he is only two years older than me.

NOPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

i finished this kdrama today and honestly i really disliked it? i started it like months ago and struggled finishing it for so long, it started feeling like a burden because once i start something i NEED to finish it but it was just so…boring. it was repetitive and it kept going in circles and the plot felt like it wasn’t moving anywhere. also i really hated the ending like bro theres no way they did that? it was so out of pocket…
basically the main character was diagnosed with cancer and they made it look like he died because the mother of the main character told everyone (including his gf) thats hes fr dead…they did a 5year time skip and he came back out of nowhere to reveal he’s alive and he just wanted them to think hes dead because he wanted to recover fully before coming back LIKE ARE YOU MENTAL IN WHAT WORLD IS THAT OK….5YEARS OF MENTAL TORTURE BC U THOUGHT UR PARTNER IS DEAD……….uhm i personally would not let that slide ????? but yeah im glad i finished this finally but i dont recommend it…if youre like me and feel the need to finish what uve started, ur just gonna trap urself with this one ?

Oh God…no

Like most reviewers have already said, this was cute and fluffy and fun up until the last few episodes. I rarely just binge watch episode after episode but I did this one. I really liked it. Then it took a devastating turn.

Let me say the thing I HATE the most in dramas is the breakup because “I don’t like you anymore” (when they really do) just to protect the other person. That is the most hurtful thing you can do. Plus, you don’t know how the other person will react if you tell the truth.

But then, on top of that, to be told he was DEAD when he wasn’t. Then for him to return in 5 years? That was plenty of time for her to move on. After that, we had like 5 minutes of them together and it wasn’t satisfying at all. They just sat on the hill talking like nothing had happened. I almost wished he had stayed dead instead of an ending like this. At least, then, it would have been a beautiful, heartbreaking love story.

Who knew a fun, romantic comedy would have such a completely unnecessary and devastating ending.

That ending...

I genuinely don't know what to say. It was going so well and then... I just can't accept the fact that the writers decided that THAT was a good ending.

I have a theory tho. Jun's mother never specifically said that Jun was dead BUT she didn't deny it either, and that's what pisses me the most. I think Jun was unaware of what his mother was doing and he then knew the truth years later... but it just... if that's what really happened, I can't believe his mother was, at the end, the cruelest of them all.
And if that's not the case, and he planned all of this with his mother, I... If he did that, I'd be more pissed with the writers cause that's something that Jun's character would NEVER do, NEVER. It's not coherent with his character at all.

I can't think of other explanations, but I'm so mad that the writers ruined such a good drama with that shitty ending. Yes, I'm happy he's alive but the whole reason his death was hidden from Rara, I just don't understand it.

Okay, but besides that rant hahaha It's my first time seeing Jae wook's acting and I'm surprised. He's such a good actor at such a young age, I fell in love with him the moment he appeared on screen. I'd like to watch more of his dramas in the future.

It was cute!

Listen, I honestly enjoyed this drama a lot. The characters were cute and sometimes all over the place. The chemistry was amazing. The music was fantastic. The plot was a little predictable though, and the ending was okay. I kind of wish it hadn't gone the way it did but there's really nothing we can do about that lol The main leads were so cute though, especially the least actress. It was refreshing seeing a cute, bubbly "rich" girl with good morals. Honestly, I know this may not be fore everyone, but it's just my style. It's not too over the top but it's also not too slow paced. It's just right imo.

"The fact is, they lost what could turn out to be one of the best kdramas of 2020."

The catchphrase I'm going to put on to sum up this drama will be that one.
-
At first, I had the prospect that I was watching a 'My secrect romance' 2, but it was only until the fifth episode that everything changed.

To be aware, I managed to drop in a drama that I was enjoying and that from one moment to another, there were scrambled in the script that did not conquer me anymore. It seems like everything was going well, until... from episode 6 to 16 was just downhill. I literally don't know what really happened!

Or, as I said at the time I watched:
"In the first few episodes, I thought the drama would follow the hype of "my secrect romance" - kdrama 2017, but over
time I realized that it would be inappropriate* to make such an analogy...
After two droppes, I was able to watch and finish! I'm not going to say it was very good, good, or even great, but I sure wouldn't want to watch it if there was that possibility. What was that ending? Does anyone know how to define in a word this ending?!"

If you don't want to be spoiled please go on ?

Let me say one thing... I loved all the episodes up until the last minutes of the last episode. I was expecting the plot to be something other than that, I was super sad about Jun but then the writers took my emotions and threw them into a rollercoaster so in one minute I was extremely happy he was okay but the next I was furious.
I really loved Ra Ra's and Jun's chemistry and of course Ha Young and Seung Gi were my faves laughed with all my heart with their arguments and love ❤️
If i were to watch this drama again I would skip the ending so that I would be less frustrated

Ridiculous ending spoiled it

I absolutely loved this drama, up to the point where Joon left Ra Ra. Things then proceeded to get ridiculously out of hand. What on earth were the writers thinking?!
The bulk of this strangely inviting drama's episodes, were quirky, amusing, wonderfully cheesy and entertaining. The kind of silly-in-a-good-way drama that many of us crave at times.
I'm not a huge fan of Go Ara's work; not because she isn't a good actress, but because many of her roles put her in either frumpy, gaumless, or just plain irritating characters.
For me, this was one of her best roles, besides Ms Hammurabi, which I LOVED! (although she seemed to live in her coat in it).
Totally cosseted by her father and piano teacher, it's like she grew up in a bubble. When that bubble is burst, we are left with a character that has a child-like innocence and outlook ~ though by no means stupid, she is naive, coupled with amazing determination and an incredibly optimistic outlook. Although she is more ga-ga than Ra-Ra, I found her very likeable through her outlook and how she said what she thought, without filtering it.
Supporting characters were mixed ~ wealthy, controlling parents; an idyllic community with gossipy, good hearted middle-aged women; childhood love/hate friends; a villain; inept though menacing private investigators; suave doctor; slow police; and a sweetie of a grandpa figure.
There was lots of comedy, some very touching scenes, romance, lots of cheesy bike rides, piggy backs etc. and a mysterious element of threat for good measure.
It was also a welcome change to have a younger male, older female couple that weren't unnatural. Lee Jae Wook and Go Ara worked well together.
However, the last few episodes descended into the worst kind of melodramatic chaos, which left me feeling so disappointed in the script writing and, to a certain extent, the direction.
First there's the very nasty breakup... why? Then that's simply brushed to one side as Jun apologises via his excuse for it, of leaving the country to 'study'!
We soon find out why, whilst Ra-Ra is kept in the dark. Yet she seems to forgive him, as he leaves, even though she's told his going abroad to 'study' may lead to him settling there. What?!
Eventually, he's due back, only for Ra-Ra to be told he's passed away. Very moving and sad.
The writers should have had him cured instead, or left it at that, but no....
A whopping 5 YEARS later, he turns up fully cured, out of the blue.
What woman, after having her heart broken twice already (3 times if his departure is included), could forgive that?! Yet she welcomes him and comically punches him multiple times on the arms for deceiving her.
I'd have punched his lights out. Yes, I'd be so happy he was alive, but that would quickly be replaced by sheer anger at being allowed to suffer in grief. What if she'd married someone else?
There was also the bizarre giving of couples rings ~ Jun gifted matching rings, which for all intense and purposes were made to look like couples or wedding rings. Then Ra-Ra buys wedding rings with the intention of proposing to him, but that never happens. Bizarre.
Jun's overbearing father simply disappears from the entire story and his mother has a change of heart.
I am SO disappointed in this terribly lazy, badly written conclusion. What could have been a witty, charming rom-com, got mashed up with a dreadful melodramatic climax that ruined it.
I still think that apart from the latter episodes, it's an otherwise enjoyable watch, hence my rating not being 2/10.
However the end of it was its ruin. The writers should be fined and made to apologise for treating the viewing public like idiots!!!
