Finished Because this is my first life and I really liked it. As a romantic comedy drama, it dealt with a lot of societal expectations and gender roles quite well.

I would say though, the series was great like a 9/10 until the last 3 episodes. It seemed like the writers room walked out and left some bs for the director to fill in. I started skipping some scenes because one of the couples' arc is really annoying.

I understand the ending as it relates to defining your own relationship within that type of culture but damn did it pass me off. Emotional manipulation.

:scust:

I could see myself re-watching it despite the flaws.

8/10

Side note, I'm going to need some a shorter series, some episodes being an hour and a half for 16 episodes

:damn:

I started to learn Korean from this show. I wonder if I should actually learn it.
:patrice:

By the way, are there any shows where the male lead isn't on the spectrum, or has some kind of self-imposed deficiency?

:mjlol:

I understand why it's in there but even for a show like Stranger, it seemed unnecessary to go with that plot.

Throw it into the bushes and start Vagabond since it's on your list :salute:

I got up to episode 11 and had to question why the hell I was watching it still.
:hhh:


Started The Smile has Left your Eyes and am on episode 2.

It has potential. I'm watching it because Jung So Min is starring in it and I enjoyed her performance from Because This is My First Life.

I'll get Vagabond next.

A lot of my friends enjoyed Hi, Bye Mama. Haven't seen it myself but the synopsis looked like a snooze fest to me.
