SWEET, SHORT, CONCISE, BUT FULFILLING

Mar. 10, 2022

OMFG, Sematic Error adaptation is just chef's kiss. As someone who has read the manhwa of it, I try not to compare them together as obviously this is an adaptation and that there are some differences. But I just wanna throw it out here that for those who wanna see more details and understand each lead, PLEASE READ THE MANHWA. It's really good.

Is there even more to say? The leads are lovely, I want them so much. Can I please have both of them ?

But as with most Korean BLs, this is for someone who wants a concise and easy to follow the plot. If you are looking for yk the typical full-length kdramas, this is ain’t it for you! But please really do consider reading the manhwas as well. They are both awesomeee!!!

Salah satu drama bl thailand terbaik sih menurutku. Penyampaian karakter pemain juga bener bener tersampaikan ke penonton. Ada sedih, lucu, kecewa, dll yang bikin ga bosenin tuh bagemana ceritanya menghibur banget parah sih!!!!. Comedynya dapet bgt romance nya juga dapet banget. Akting para pemain tuh termasuk yg profesional sih.. PDnya juga keren parahhhhhh... Karena aku sesuka itu sama ni drama, ampe dibilang berisik gegara ketawa ngakak ㅠㅠ. Jangankan storyline dan acting aktornya guys,,, tetapiiii visual attacknya juga bukan maen wkwk. Karna drama ini, aku juga jdi nungguin AJ prove his acting skill, karna disini aj dapet scriptnya lumayan hihi. I don't know how to describe this drama lgi. P'jitti plis bikin season 2 nya xixi. So please guys, this drama need more attention ><.

GOT RID OF MY KDRAMA SLUMP AND AT THE SAME TIME CAUSED IT

thank you for getting rid of my kdrama slump but also causing it now LOL

anyway, long story short i love it since every ep was like a book you can't put down however i feel like i need more baekhong happy moments!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

whoever decided on the cast deserves a bigger salary! thank you casting ksh & kjw, their chemistry is on the roof like WHAT THE HECK just by standing next to each other I WAS DYIIIIING

the acting skills of all the actors was SO GOOD! you can really feel their hardwork and effort to bring the characters into life.

i was actually so annoyed with all the sub plots (!!!!!!!!!!!) and how the villains kept on winning in every episode since the more they win, the more screentime and i just NEED my fluffy happy funny baekhong moments!

i'll definitely miss anticipating every episode and seeing ksh & kjw together! :((((

The best Korean BL I've seen thus far (especially since they are not that common)! I was surprised to learn about the age difference between the actors, but it didn't affect my enjoyment at all; there is amazing chemistry between the main leads. It was humorous, cute, but also had enough angst to fulfill all of your hearts desires. The plot was unique and had a different concept. I did feel that Hye's character was kind of a waste of time; I wish there could have been more lead up from Tae Joo's perspective sans jealousy instead. I definitely want to see more LGBT+ Korean dramas in the future, hopefully where the plot doesn't so much revolve around homosexuality as a taboo, but instead around the same sort of relationship issues any hetero couple in dramas would have. Also, I wish they could have gotten together before the end so that we could have gotten snippets of them actually dating. Of course I wish the drama was longer, but I guess having something is better than nothing. Some of the longer dramas recently seem to really drag in the middle, so it was nice not to have to deal with that and to look forward to the each episode.

A Solid Action thriller with an unconvincing climax

Vagabond is exceptional in terms of it's script writing the writers are their own ways to shock,mesmerize and worry with their unpredictable twists. Right from the beginning the writer tries to make us connect hard with the agony of the protagonist with the death of their nephew that actually worked pretty well right from the beginning we want the protagonist to win badly which in turn builds up a lot of tension in every moment.The writer shocks us with a lot of unpredictable twists and the character developments and makes the antagonists stronger as the story proceeds which makes the main protagonist more sympathetic. The chemistry between the Lead pair basically between the NIS agent and the stuntman was excellent throughout but the way it progress towards the end is quite disappointing. The whole point of the writer in the final portions is to make up as many twists as possible eventhough it's quite illogical. The reveal of Samuel was very shocking but digging deep into it can get me a lot of Loopholes. "How can Sameul be so confident on getting the main witness to the court to win this case when the entire government is stopping them? " It's quite illogical and portrays Samuel as lucky in winning the case rather than making him a master planner. Apart from these Loopholes and an unconvincing ending Vagabond is an edge of the seat thriller with great action Stunts, twists and dramatic presentation.

a genuine unscripted dating show with a slight flaw

in all honesty i started this sjow for jia and the edits i saw on insta lol but i got wayyyyy more hooked that i thought i would.....the couples at the end were the best and made me veryyy happy and since i just finished watching it i might blabble a lot rn


the location was pretty but couldve been better i think and they definitely need a soundtrack to stand out. also i think theres going to be more season innthe future so i hope they come up with better music and locations.


so starting with the introductions to the cast i think i instantly fell in love with the members and also they are all so hot....jin taek and jia had the biggest overall impressions on me cuz they looked confident and unique

onto my instant personal ships i wanted sehoon with soyeon lol ik kinda weird but the whole cooking they did for the first time it felt as if they clicked well together and the second one was definitely jia and hyeon jung cuz of the little gestures he did towards her. and other than that no one seemed to click

instantly my most fav couple was jin taek and soyeon cuz they mutually liked each other and were very comfortable until jin taek became a little weird and went with jiyeon (not like he cant but he also kinda lied so......) the whole drama with sehoon broke me sooooo bad and then soyeon liking sehoon while jin taek was with both jiyeon and soyeon made me veryyyy confused as to who i should ship whom with but thankfully all ended well

the flaw i think the show had was adding three extra members in the middle of the show.......i think they did it to kinda create more drama or something cuz they very much succeeded im that. all three of the new members did not end with anyone despite having feelings for them cuz obviously four days is enough for the members to choose a person and now theres three others who are just trying to come in between (no hate intented)

jia and hyeon jung ending up together was the best part of the show and i felt veryyyy bad for si hun but then again it feels like he didnt put enough effort on any member other than jia and i did see some ppl talking how he shouldve chosen sumin instead but like they didnt even have any chemistry and he had every right to go for whoever he wanted

yewon is extremely pretty and very charming which is why i kinda shipped her with hyeon sung who kinda seemed interested in her......i dont mind her being with jun sik cuz if shes happy then idc but i feel like she deserves better (sorry lol)

lastly i will say they i reallyyyyy enjoyed the show and i think everyone should watch it bcuz despite having drama and kinda awkwardness everything was put together really well and i love the cast. hoping for second season where i can see sihun, sumin, hyeon sung and minji(i love her to death) have a partner lol.

Sortir de l'enfance, devenir adulte, responsable, trouver sa voie,...

En coréen, « Misaeng » se traduit à peu près par « vie incomplète », et par suite par « naissance ».
Le terme est utilisé dans le Baduk, jeu de stratégie coréen proche du Go, pour désigner les pions prêts à entrer en jeu et dont le destin n’est donc pas encore déterminé. Un peu comme Jang Geu Rae (Im Siwan).(StellarsSisters)

Dès son arrivée, il porte l’étiquette infamante de « pistonné » et cela entraînera pas mal de déboires dans ses débuts.
Personnellement j’ai adoré ce drama, mais si vous cherchez la romance, l’amour et les histoires habituelles de chaebols et de leur fils bons à rien ou leurs filles pimbêches fans de shopping de luxe, ce n’est pas là qu’il faut aller !
Par contre, si vous aimez la Corée telle qu’elle est, avec son bon et son moins bon, et que vous avez envie de savoir ce que signifie vraiment être « salary man » là-bas, allez-y, foncez !!
Jang Geu Rea va être assigné au départements des ventes, section 3, et son chef (Oh Sang Sik) l’accueille très mal (il déteste tout ce qui ressemble au favoritisme). La situation est dure pour Geu Rae, mais assez rapidement il va comprendre que la vie en entreprise peut être considérée comme une gigantesque partie de jeu de Go (jeu de stratégies par excellence) et son expérience va lui permettre non seulement de s’intégrer mais d’avoir une vue totalement neuve sur son travail…
Il n’est pas seul, il fait partie d’un groupe de 4 mais les 3 autres ont suivi le parcours classique, lycée, université, et ils sont stagiaires avec l’espoir de devenir permanent à la fin des deux ans de contrats. Les relations qui vont se créer entre les 4, et en particulier celles des 3 diplômés par rapport à Geu Rea sont très bien exploitées et écrites, chacun réagissant d’une façon différente.
Ce qui est passionnant dans ce drama c’est la mise sous microscope d’un univers fermé : l’entreprise, mais au niveau le plus bas, celui des intérimaires, et leur statut bien spécial. La Corée est un pays de classe, celle de l’âge, celle de la fortune, celle de la famille, et il y en a sûrement d’autres et là elles se superposent et s’ajoutent sans oublier la conviction des Coréens que les Coréennes leur sont forcément inférieures au travail ! Ici le statut est fondamental et le harcèlement moral est un des piliers de ce drama qui prend hardiment le parti des victimes. C'est par là que nous sommes en territoire fondamentalement coréen, qui se différencie du monde de l'entreprise française.
On peut comprendre aisément pourquoi le webcomic d’abord puis le drama ensuite ont eu un très gros succès en Corée, particulièrement chez les trentenaires salariés !! C’est leur vie, leurs histoires, leurs problèmes qui sont exposés ici.
Mais n’imaginez pas du tout qu’on s’y ennuie ! Il y a beaucoup de scènes intenses, ou drôles, ou touchantes, ou émouvantes, jusqu’à être bouleversantes et une fin totalement inattendue, se démarquant totalement du reste du drama, dans un feu d’artifice de beauté et de couleurs, ayant été tournée en extérieur en Jordanie, avec de l’humour et un bel optimisme !!
L’interprétation est exemplaire de justesse, de finesse et d’humanité ! Difficile de se souvenir qu’en fait il y a caméras et techniciens autour ! Je connaissais déjà Lee Sung Min pour sa magnifique prestation dans « Memory » et j’ai découvert le jeu tout en finesse et intelligence d’Im Siwan que j’aimerais bien voir dans autre chose ! Ce n’est pas si souvent que les idols se trouvent être des acteurs talentueux !

L’OST est excellente, compliment que je fais rarement !

Je l’ai déjà vu et revu, et je suis sûre d’y revenir encore !!

Se existe um drama com diversas nuances, com certeza é Fated to love you, você começa não esperando muito. Por ter um protagonista (Lee Gun) excêntrico e divertido, e ao mesmo tempo Kim Mi Young, uma moça doce e ingênua ao extremo. São pessoas totalmente diferentes mas ao longo do drama percebemos ser complementares um do outro, possui um romance muito leve no começo, ainda mais por se tratar de um acaso do destino e não um romance certeiro como a maioria dos dramas,

Lee Gun, como eu disse é um personagem excêntrico, mas divertidíssimo, é um chaebol de uma empresa de gerações, ele possui uma bela namorado com quem se relaciona a 6 anos e pretende se casar (Se Ra), já que os sócios de sua empresa suplicam por um sucessor.

Kim Mi Young, a garota post-it, não sei nem o que falar só sentir. Acredito que os sentimentos por essa personagem possa mudar ao longo do drama, ela pode passar de queridinha a odiada, isso porque a mesma tem um nível de ingenuidade muito alto. No entanto é uma das personagens que mais cresce durante o drama, e Jang Nara é Jang Nara, não é mesmo?

O envolvimento dos dois, como o nome do drama, é realmente destino. Vários encontros e desencontros e acontecimentos inesperados. A conexão logo de início dos dois é muito forte, há uma química que não é visto muito em outros dramas, mesmo quando a cena não envolve o romance diretamente. O grande enfoque é o encontro mais errôneo e inesperado de todos, onde os dois acabam dormindo juntos e se envolvendo um na vida do outro, e logo após um tempo Mi Young descobre sua gravidez, que por sempre se colocar no lugar do outro primeiro, decide não contar ao Gun sobre a gravidez por medo de acabar com o relacionamento do mesmo. Destino é destino, os dois se esbarram e se envolvem na vida do outro mesmo sem querer.

Ao descobrir a gravidez Gun acaba ficando mais maluco do que excêntrico e nos dando cenas icônicas e de morrer de rir. Kim Mi Young sofredora-nata nos dá muito choro e aí entra a paixão e ódio do personagem. Porém há a necessidade desse sofrimento todo, para mostrar o crescimento dela. Os dois decidem se juntar para o bem do bebê e seguir um caminho turbulento e cheios de problemas.

Kim Mi Young conhece o maior responsável por seu crescimento depois de Gun, Daniel, que a auxilia e muitas vezes coloca juízo em sua cabeça. Além disso Daniel é o ponto chave do romance entre o casal Mi Young e Gun.

Acontecem muitos imprevistos, devido a grande ambição dos sócios e familiares do lugar de Gun na empresa da família, e devido a sua vida antes de Mi Young, ou seja, sua antiga namorada. Além disso, Lee Gun luta contra uma doença hereditária, na qual ele acredita poder chegar a qualquer momento.

Vão vir desencontros, para quem tem coração mais mole. Prepare o lencinho pois lagrimas poderão cair. É uma bela historia de amor, mas como todo drama como belas histórias de amor, tem tragédia.

Calma! Vale a pena, assistam sim. O envolvimento dos protagonistas e todo o roteiro é incrivelmente poderoso. A parte de drama (como um gênero), tá de parabéns, é sofrência pesada. No entanto nos mostra uma resolução todinha construída em cima dos acontecimentos, ou seja, a dor construiu cada um.

Os personagens secundárias, tem histórias que também parecem destinadas, e no final todos possuem conclusão. Alias, todas para mim, satisfatórias.

Se Lee Gun casa e tem um final feliz com Mi Young, ai você vai ter que assistir pra descobrir. Pra mim é um dos 5 dramas que eu mais gostei, assisti depois de um longo período sem dramas, pois não conseguia me apegar e maratonar os mais novos, aí vi uma indicação no instagram e fui ver. Fui engolida pelo drama, assistindo ele em um dia e meio. E são 20 episódios.Valeu cada minuto.

Final lindo.

Se você shippar errado eu não vou perdoar.


Fighting!

I have not seen any of the other series that Pete/Kao appear in so this was my first taste of them.

I have to admit I was not blown away. I love Pete and Kao as a couple and it was good to see their moments together. I felt that the Non character was utterly ridiculous. They built that whole thing up just to throw in a bit of angst and it just didn’t work.

I did like the Mork/Sun storyline but at the same time I found Sun to be a bit of a creeper. I’d prefer Mork with Non that with Sun - rich boy Non and thuggish (poor?) Mork. I might have to check AO3 for any fanfic of that pairing...

I don’t feel inspired to watch this series again although I did enjoy it, there’s nothing screaming at me to repeat. Perhaps it’s shallow reasons... all such attractive main actors but none of them ‘do it’ for me like Krist or Bright do.

ONE OF THE BEST CDRAMA EVER, INTRIGUING PLOT

Watched it because of the main leads, rewatched it and still loved it. The plot is eyecatching, intriguing even with some predictable thing not excessively. Every character is well developed, and i particularly liked Tian Qi and Mu Xiao Yan. Flashbacks can seem overused but don't ruin the story, they work as starting point for character development. I liked the 2ML couple too, because of their feelings. A big surprise about the villain during the development of the story, written in some particular way. The story flows with a great pace, with high an low like a roller-coaster, and i really liked it. OST IS WONDERFUL. Another thing i liked was the fact that each character has an element who marks the changes of his personality in a clear way, it was superb. Since it's set in fashion industry, you see a lot of good sense of fashion, loved it.
The ending is bittersweet, very heartwarming and touching from a side, and sad from the other side, but i liked it. I find it perfectly fit for the story, to cut the fairytale and Cinderella vibes.
I really loved this drama and i find it almost realistic in a lot of way.
Very recommended.
I can confirm this is my second favorite Chinese drama.
