Las inclemencias del amor (2022)

A different and warm Love story

Even though the story started with little disappointing (cheating with BF and GF) but later on it is taking very well. Relationship and work is taking very well balanced and both the main lead characters are well matured. I saw some negative comments on the chemistry between the ML and FL, of course initially it will look like that because after the heart breaking break up (cheating partners) it will take some time to heal, and to start a new relationship with someone to comfort and chemistry. Since they are the main leads they can’t show their intimacy suddenly with the new relationship after the heart breaking break up. The most convincing for me in Korean dramas is, they show their maturity in the character’s very well, unlike in Chinese dramas, especially in office romance romance drama OMG I feel like to throw up whenever I see the main lead faces, they always keep on looking and thinking each other and making some signals, visiting their cabins for some petty reasons, these things I feel little immature.
According to me till now this drama is going well and I hope till the end so.

Disappointing leads

Being a nerd, I love the weather background, but I am disappointed with the lead actors. Song Kang is a great actor but in this series, he comes across as an annoying simpering teenage boy. The female lead doesn’t even pretend to act, she is expressionless all the time. Mystified as to why they attract each other, or indeed attract anyone, as neither are very likeable. And the age difference is excessive, she looks like his mother. A very attractive mother, but his mother nonetheless. The whole thing smacks of workplace sexual harassment to me, why is the senior director messing with someone who appears to be barely out of school. The support actors are interesting, if I bother finishing this series, it will be to see what happens to them. Especially the man who is estranged from his wife and daughter.

Forecasting bad script

I was eagerly looking for this drama after reading synopsis. I thought this drama would show work and little romance of National weather service people, and be like kdrama "Live". Simple and realistic. But what I seen is nothing short of disappointment.

First, the main ML and FL chemistry is kind of off. Let me say beforehand, I don't care about age gap and I'm completely fine with it. I just simply don't see them as interesting. The romance between them seems like it is something forced developed just because they are main characters and they have
no choice but romance to happen between them. i feel like this because of the way they started, the one night stand which was a cliche way to start. The acting is also on average side. Song kang is great actor, I loved him in Navillera, his acting was good there but I don't know what happened here. Maybe it's the character writing that did unjustice to his acting potential. As for park min young, why does she walk like that. Her hips sway too much like she is on a runway platform. It's so awkward to watch her keeping still face and walk like that. Body language is also quite important in acting.

Now coming to second ML and FL, both are given the routine we have seen for ages. Cheats on main characters, gets tied up together, become scape goat of a script that will continually put them down for viewer satisfaction and glorification of main ML and FL. It's just so obvious these characters on how they will be and it makes me bored. What I am even more mad is that the synopsis of this drama described these second ML and FL as something of a potential but what I saw is total 180° of it. In description it was mentioned second ML is someone who is good at persuasion and a model student. What they shown is a loser who doesn't have any skills and nothing like in the description. Same with
the second FL. The writer is basically making second ML and FL as characters to receive as much hate as they can and I just don't see the point of it. I just want to say "yeah I understand, but unless there is a character development to them can we just move on ".

One more thing, too much improper communication at work place that seems so unprofessional. Gossips in bathrooms without checking stalls and its so unrealistic. All 4 main characters talk with their personal feelings included whenever it comes to work. Anything goes wrong at work people just shout instead of solving. And about weather, I don't know how serious korean weather is and how criticizing it is if something a little wrong is predicted, but I kinda feel they are over exaggerating the work style of National weather service in this drama for sake of dramatic effect. Or maybe not. Since I am not a korean I cannot say I am right on this. But I felt like this because, every moment of episode it's like something went wrong in Korea's weather and nobody is having a sunny day. Like every episode, I keep asking, should the weather always have some problem just to have an episode. You can write one episode on good weather and show normal day at the office. Having every episode with a weather problem is too much routine writing.

I am going to give 2 more episodes as try. But if this drama is going to be like this only I am dropping without changing this rating. But if I like it, I will definitely change.

Anybody in comments try to defend or argue. Well go ahead. But I am going to stick with my review.

Quite enjoyable but I need to rant

The AUDACITY Ki Joon has to be upset that Yoo Jin was dating and living with Shi Woo before him as if he wasn't about to get married and in a 10 YEAR relationship. Why was that such a big deal???? Ki Joon couldn't let it go but both of them were cheaters and liars????

Both Ki Joon and Yoo Jin are scummy cheaters who have no business being upset or angry or involved in the lives of Shi Woo and Ha Kyung. They have the NERVE to act the way they do when they cheated and abandoned their exes...they needed to be ostracized a bit more. Like how are YOU mad that both Shi Woo and Ha Kyung are working there when it is all your fault. Also, Ki Joon wanting to go half on the apartment to provide for Yoo Jin, Ki Joon having Ha Kyung write for him, him spying on them, the continuous lying between both cheaters, and the fact that they were never sorry and blamed their exes for their poor behavior. My mouth is on the floor.

You can't have your cake and eat it too!! like be so for real.

Aside from this, I am fond of the other main/supporting characters on team 2, the show being about weather is awesome, and I'm still enjoying watching it overall. I just don't like when cheaters act so entitled or their behavior is minimized so they eventually get redeemed.

Amazing

Song Kang and Min Young are back! And their chemistry is electrifying.

Too early to write a full review, but the first 2 episodes are amazing.

as much as i like song kang's cute puppy face and park min young's natural acting....i'm here for the story, the creativity. dont tell me no one realized this drama is too similar with "she would never know" (also from JTBC...) from last year?

***SPOILER ALERT***

-BOTH female leads were hurt by their boyfriends who had another girlfriend behind their backs.
-BOTH female leads were supposed to go to overseas, ended up staying.
-BOTH male leads are the "new guy" of the team, who shines with his efforts and specialties.
-BOTH female leads dislike the male leads at first, but then fell for him.

prediction: yura wanting to go back to song kang again. like rowoon's ex-gf in "she would never know" .

i can go on and on. its like the core idea are the exact same but they just changed the actors; changed the setting of where the story takes place; changing the lines here and there and call it a new drama???

A Catastrophic Storm

Some comments may not be friendly or flattering, so read on at your own risk.

I wanted to like this, I really did.

I got excited when I saw some familiar faces pop on screen.

I just can't keep trying to muster through.

PMY is looking haggard lately (too much plastic surgery maybe?) and looks much older than SK .

More so then just the few years that separate them irl.

She and he do not have chemistry, at all.

His whole look is off as well.

Is he supposed to be "boyishly handsome" or something like that in this?

He's just bland and slightly annoying.

They just don't look right to me when they are together.

And how does one go from about to get married to someone they've been with over a decade to hopping on a co-working stranger?

Being cheated on aside, that feels cheap and sleazy.

The two cheaters have no redeeming qualities and grate the nerves like sandpaper when they are on screen.

I could care less if they regret their decisions.

The weather aspect may be interesting for some, but not enough for me to continue on this hot mess roller coaster.

Netflix just keeps churning out the flops.

Not everything needs to be Westernized.

Non me lo ricordo

Può essere un problema di memoria soggettivo direte voi, ma non è così. Sono il tipo di persona che legge più storie alla volta e guarda diverse serie asiatiche/americane contemporaneamente. Avevo stoppato la visione di questo drama perchè non mi stava convincendo e quando mi sono decisa a dargli una seconda opportunità, mi sono resa conto di non ricordare pressochè nulla della storia. Questo è grave. Ho confermato così che non valesse il mio tempo e l'ho droppato. Ma qual'è il motivo per cui l'avevo messo in pausa?
La storia di base è molto lenta e si prende tutti i suoi tempi, anche troppi. Ma mentre in altri drama può funzionare bene, qui stavamo stagnando. I protagonisti presi singoli sono "carini" ma insieme sono un disastro: zero chimica. L'attrice che interpreta la protagonista ha già fatto un ottimo office/romance (what's wrong with secretary kim) ma qui è appena passabile. L'attore che invece interpreta il genio di turno è l'unico che ho apprezzato davvero tanto (amato in Nvertheless). L'unica cosa che mi è piaciuta fin da subito è l'ambientazione, sicuramente molto diversa dai soliti office/romance e ho apprezzato anche come veniamo introdotti all'interno di quel mestiere e tutte le piccole chicce che scopriamo man mano sempre legate a quel tipo di lavoro. Per il resto... Beh, non lo ricordo.

Clima de amor (teve clima (do tempo) mas faltou o amor)

em minha opinião, o enredo deixou muito a desejar, senti falta de episódios que deixam aquele gostinho de quero mais, aqueles suspenses e expetativas de ver o que irá acontecer nos demais episódios que estavam por vir, teve dias que demorei para assistir porque não tinham vontade de ver. Acho que eles focaram demais nas cenas que tinham que descrever a previsão do tempo e esqueceram das demais historias.


Gostei da atuação do Song Kang e do Yoon Park , porém senti falta nos demais, acabou prejudicando um pouco também a qualidade dos episódios por falta dessa química dos personagens..

No Significant forecast. You may stay calm.

Are you late for your work, but can't eat unless you turn something on?
Watch this.
It will give you a stress free viewing experience.
This is a story. That's it. This is just guilty pleasure where you will get to see Song kang and park Min young being Eyecandy and Saying scientific terms on a very interesting subject. Few good side stories. Pretty dresses. Cute hairclips. That's about it.

Like many other generic stories which had been retold in a million ways but still you find something new but in this case you will just find the setting as new, but the execution as somewhat lack lusture.
What surprised me the most is the fact that what they showed us as "character development", isn't that plain meaningless stupidity and toxic positivity? Well, if you watch my review. Do engage with me on this topic.
I would still give this a heads up coz it helped me have a easy digestion( coz i can't watch complex stuff while eating)
