"What we look for love is something that we never looked for,

a person changes your life of what love really is..." (continuation) :>

This drama never disappoints!! it's not the typic cliché kdrama that talks about love and hate, but the fact that even the characters (especially the male and female leads) made a whole impact with this drama! I really love how each scenes blends well with the atmosphere, plus the chemistry of the casts never made me regret watching this! this was so underrated, that the fact that this drama was very special where in fact the story was really lovely! Never regretted to watch this drama and how it was so good!! For this note, i'll be talking more about the story and the characters and/or casts as part of taking this time to rate and give recognition to all users who are looking forward to watch this cute drama :)) (and why I rated it a perfect ten ), and finally while concluding this drama, I would definitely and finally confirming that this would be one of the best rom-com kdramas in 2023 so far!!

STORY/PLOT
It tells about a brave, strong, and a rookie attorney Yeo Mi-ran who works at Gilmu Law Firm, known at working numerous number of entertainment company accompanying cases involved by the actors/actresses images throughout their career. She is known to be a hardworking and lovely to her own mother and her best friend since high school who stayed by her side till present by an unexpected short-coming consequences, but she was not interested in entering another romantic relationships because of her exes and how she hates man that gives her all to the,. It was her typical moral lessons that she would never date the type of men she dated before.
On another, a top actor from the entertainment industry, Nam Kang Ho, was known from his famous roles and well known in south korea due to his titleship roles that made him recognized and popular by many. Due to his handsome and visuals, including his intelligence and kindness, many koreans, even the co-workers in his previous roles in his projects loved and adored him so much. With his personal life, he never trusted women, because of his past relationship that gives him anxiety and trauma.
But then, as they met together, they decided to be called as enemies. Turns out that they were in a love battle, as they slowly falling for each other. But both of them never trusts what love is, until they encounter challenges and obstacles in their path.

Well with the story itself, it was very interesting. No-called fate, a story about battling how they hated the word love, until one of them slowly falls in love and the other as well. I really fell in love with the plot itself. Where in fact, I craved for this type of story because honestly so far from the kdrama series I've finished, I never had the chance to look forward about the characters who had the same situation as they had, like never trust the word love in entering relationships. But the truth is where you can find if that person you were or were not looking for actually changes your life they way it was before. The lead and second lead couples made a whole lot different with how this drama was so underrated, including the story as well!! this is why I like this drama. Not your expected typical kdramas that we see. A 10 episode kdrama that I would badly want a 12 episode for another screentime to the second lead couples huhuhu :'))


CAST & CHARACTERS
All of them were new to me, so I'll make this part short. I'll go first with Kim Ok Bin as Yeo Mi ran. Wow she changed the whole atmosphere of the drama like most of the time! I really get so attracted with her character, because it not the type of kdrama fmls who always cries and made me *cringe* a bit, but she was far FAR different to some fml's hehe. I also looked at her discography, wow she was really skilled! From boxing, takewondo, and such! Kim Ok Bin was a promising actress, and hoping she could get roles like action-crime fiim's, and maybe i'll be looking forward to her future projects soon! Now with the handsome and attractive Yoo Teo as Nam Kang Ho, wow like HE'S 41!!??! goshhh kbeauty made them look so younger as ever. Like he's aged like fine wine for me :')). With his character, gosh how I wish to find a man like him huhuhu :')) like it's visible, how he really fell in love first to Mi Ran. I felt bad with his past relationships, since he quite get traumas and anxiety as well. But oh well looking forward to his next roles in the future projects to come!! Next, Kim Ji Hoon as Do Won Joon. He was known in the korean addapt. of money heist. But oh well he was attractive by his role and character. The first time as I saw him from this drama, both him and Yoo Teo has potentials to be recognized more since they deserve it so well! Including Ok Bin as well! Lastly, Go Won Hee as Shin Na Eun. Actually I was thinking if she was that recognized in this drama? Since most of the time the story really focused to the fml and ml, but she really deserve more screen time, as what I have said on top, Ji Hoon and her in their characters, they need more scenes because they had also good chemistry as well. But her character, I think it needs improvement because honestly some viewer (from the comments) say that her character was annoying, but for me she also bring attention to some scenes as well. To all of the casts, they need bigger recognition sooner, because they all deserve it! They really chose the drama that fits their appearances as well! and btw, their friendships in the drama was like from the drama A business proposal a bit haha.

Overall a good watch, but how much more this drama would be better if they had the great amount of screentime to the second lead couples, and also a 12 episode kdrama but oh well its netflix :'))

Good for binge watch (50-55 min 10 episode kdrama), perfect time kill during weekends and great for beginners as well! Very recommended to re-watch it all over again!!

Kudos to the writers of this drama!! Rooting for the casts and looking forward to their next projects to come!! LOVE THEM SO MUCH AND I'LL MISS THEM MORE :'D

Romcom satsetsatset yang menghibur

Aku baru aja binge watch dan gak menyesal nonton K-drama ini karena ceritanya ringan dengan trope yang cenderung pasaran (enemy to lover, contract dating, love-hate relationship) tapi dikemas dengan sangat menghibur. Jujur, di drama ini aku gak kenal sama para pemeran utamanya (aku cuma tau Kim Ji Hoon aja, itu pun bukan male leadnya), tapi akting mereka gak mengecewakan dan justru bikin vibes romcomnya itu ngena banget. Sempet gak suka dengan background drama ini yang kental misoginisnya (karena aku tim feminis ahaha), tapi setelah berjalan beberapa episode dan menghiraukan pandangan misoginisnya itu aku bisa menikmati dramanya dengan baik (kayanya ini juga bisa jadi alasan kenapa dramanya turun langsung full episode di Netflix). Cukup senang juga menemukan drama baru yang ringan dan menghibur untuk ditonton setelah gempuran drama action dan mellow drama di paruh pertama tahun 2023 ini

EVERYONE IS LYING, ITS BADDDD

I watched this drama after seeing all the glowing reviews, and honestly, I was so disappointed. Everyone kept talking about how funny it was, but I didn’t find any of it funny? Sure, there was a part where she trips him, which I guess some people might think is humorous, but it just didn’t do it for me. I feel like I got tricked into watching it.

The plot was also a letdown. At first, I thought it was going to be about how anyone can be bad, regardless of gender, which would’ve been interesting. But no, it just turned into both main characters being sexist and judgmental towards the opposite gender. While some of the stuff they said is worth talking about, the way they handled it was just bad. He hates women, she hates men, but somehow, they don’t hate each other? Really?

The romance made no sense either. She starts off not trusting him, thinking he’s a creep, to the point where she stalks him just because she saw him talking to a younger girl—which felt totally obsessive and unnecessary. Then, out of nowhere, she’s okay with him kissing her? Where’s the character development? One second she hates him, and then, suddenly, they’re in love? It felt rushed and forced.

And don’t even get me started on that cringe line, “You’re not like other girls.” Seriously, who wrote this script?

The second couple’s storyline wasn’t any better. At first, I thought they were cute, but then it got frustrating. The guy was too scared to tell her he liked her, even after she basically gave him four chances to admit it. Grow up and just say something! His confession in the last episode was even worse. He gets down on one knee to ask her to be his girlfriend? It was so awkward—you’re not proposing, get up!

Overall, I wouldn’t recommend this drama. I honestly don’t get why people liked it so much, aside from the fact that it touched on gender roles, which was refreshing but completely overshadowed by a bad story. If you’re looking for something worth your time, watch "My Sweet Mobster" instead—that one was actually good. Don’t waste 10 hours on this.

So bad I thought an American had written the show

The idea wasn't bad, but the execution was terrible. The FL was completely unlikeable. Her character was basically the best martial arts fighter since bruce lee, the best driver, the best lawyer, the best everything ever. It got old very quickly. She was just plain obnoxious in how she played this part. The FL in Backstreet Rookie is a great example on how to play such a part while still being charming and fun. And the constant reminders thrown in our face in this show about how she could pump and dump as many guys as possible was neither charming nor cute - it was just plain gross.

As someone who has suffered through years of terrible TV in America, I was struck by how much this seemed to have been made over here. The nonstop lectures about and references to the patriarchy, misogyny, alternative sexual lifestyles and other aspects of 'The Message' were simply too much. If I wanted to see that cultural trash I would keep watching the garbage made over here. I watch Korean shows because they usually focus strictly on telling good stories - but not this one. Painting every single person in a group (ie all men are misogynistic pigs) is discriminatory and a huge sign of lazy, low talent writing.

Like I said, the idea has merit and in the hands of a good writer it could have been made into something worth watching. But not this try.

FUNNY MATURE AND JUST EVERY THING IS JUST RIGHT

Okay, this Drama is one of my most recommended Rom com drama because every thing just fits in like everything is just enough and satisfying, This one is a bit mature, The female lead is my favorite character here she is so strong of what a woman should be, if I were to be in this drama I'd like to be her best friend !
The male lead is freaking hot guy ! that's all they just fit together.
I like the part that the couple have no so much enemy but only the bashers and the media where can happen in real life , so they have just put the reality here.
The second leads are perfecter for the whole story of the drama and I love every funny moments and specially the fluttery ones of course !
I have cried in some part of the story here , I forgot why and where is it .. becuase this is a late review HAHA .. anyways there's nothing much I can say pls watch this guys !

When this first premiered, everyone said it was pretty average. Now everyone's raving about it apparently. The leads have good chemistry, but it took all the way to episode 7 for this drama to hook me. The episodes before that were very boring. They were about half spent on the second couple, another quarter spent on FL's work life, with barely any time spent on the leads. It made me want to skip scenes in those episodes. Editing was strange and felt very choppy and pacing felt all over the place. Humor was so-so, I wouldn't watch this drama for the humor aspect alone. The FL was supposed to be kinda crazy because she likes to fight and that was the show's humor. It's also not really enemies to lovers, definitely not like the trailer and title portray, because the FL only hates him for a short time because of a misunderstanding that's easily resolved. ML never really hates her at all, in fact he fell pretty much instantly with just this one misunderstanding between them. It finally picked up and started focusing on their relationship in episode 7. Glad I watched but I wouldn't rewatch. Crazy Love is a much better enemies-to-lovers romcom in all respects if you're looking for a good one.

Deserve to be seen

The unbelievable has become a reality. The main female character is not sensitive, romantic, sweet, or crying, but rather a guy in a female body. That only men can dominate women, control them, cheat, and do whatever they want? She gave them back nicely when it was necessary physically, too. Having encountered hypocrites, liars and cheats in her life (and her father, the great patriarch, did not respect her mother or her), she did not trust men and just used them and did to them what they did to other women. That's when a guy comes into her life, about whom she mistakenly thinks the same thing. Since he doesn't like women. He considers women as gold diggers, who want to secure themselves financially and then want to kick the man out. The main female character is emancipated, brave, strong, wise, clever, and independent, which freaks him out so much that he stares at her. She wants to take revenge on him for the insulting words of women, but gradually everything gets confused when they have to pretend a relationship for the media. He discovers that he has feelings for her, and she is the only one who does not have panic attacks. She also discovers that she met someone who admires and respects her. There are many comic situations in the series, the chemistry is great, and romantic scenes are finally braver and pretty. Colleagues of the main woman character at work could easily be more visible. The main character's best friend was a bit of a drag about courting and dating. I thought he would be more dominant. Thanks to the cameramen and editing, the show is colorful. Really nice to watch. And the soundtrack is very nice.

To the point

What I liked a lot about this is that there wasn’t wasted episodes on clarifying pasts, nor present. The present (relationship) came into play for leads and it progressed beautifully. We didn’t have to worry about it happening fast then the doom to come. There’s a hiccup but resolved quickly and favorably in such a way to strengthen the leads love.

Cast are great. Kim Ok Bin, I was not familiar with, but I’m a fan. Her character is great, straightforward, and bad ass, literally. Yoo Teo, main guy is the matured actor in the act that is honest and kind. His bromance with his manager and best friend played by Kim Ji Woon is the kind of friendship we crave for.

I don’t want to make this long because so many have greatly reviewed this. I’m just adding on that is a great watch. Don’t let this one pass you by. You’ll miss out.
