To start with, this review might be biased because this is KNG show.
I have been following this season from the start, alongwith the comments for each episode. I could see that people felt dismayed because this season is bang opposite of first one:
1. This one is not at all emotionally driven
2. This one has too much "over the top" (i guess) comedy, I will call it silly comedy, while first season had more mature comedy.
3. The plot was quite basic with not so strong motive.
4. As a consequence, the acting might feel over dramatic.
But, as someone who has seen both seasons, I found 1st season more interesting but too long and slow burny for me to rewatch entirely- I would rather prefer last 5 episodes and enjoy the Chemistry of "michi-gang". But, in contrast to the first one, I would run through the 2nd season because it has these loud, extravagant and really silly comic scenes that show all the characters go real mad. This is something I have rarely seen in korean content. Also, since I have also watched Indian comedy movies, so I am kind of used to watching this type of silly and "cringe" (they said) comedy.
I smiled a lot watching this season, and most of all, I was happy to see KNG's character alive in the end.
Yes, the strongest point for rewatch
Period.

Okay, I was hesitating whether I should write a review of this drama, but after seeing so many positive opinions, I was quite shocked so I decided to share what I think. So here's an unpopular opinion. CLOY definitely became very popular and achieved high ratings. It's understandable to one point, because dramas like this are often liked by a lot of people. But is CLOY really that unique and mind-blowing? Uhm, no, I don't think so.

CLOY was an average rom-com in the first half and a very overdramatic melodrama in the second. I actually liked the first few episodes a lot and I believe the drama had potential, but everything was pretty much ruined. And it kind of makes me angry, especially after this crappy ending.

The drama was extremely unrealistic and illogical. I know that the point of it is not to be realistic, but at least, it should have been convincing. I know that a love story about a NK army officer and SK heiress sounds very exciting and it would have been, if they had managed to handle it well. It's not an easy story to handle. They had a budget to film abroad and to cast stars like Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin, yet some scenes were so poorly done. I don't quite understand that. Is it a mistake or they simply didn't care? At least the cinematography was very beautiful.

Anyways, I could handle these problems in the first half because I liked the story. However, the second half was horrible. I don't know, maybe it wasn't my cup of tea. Do writers still believe that if they make the characters almost die, that will make us feel more emotional? Make the drama more impactful? No, it became tiring. Someone was dying, the other was crying and then, in the next episode, everything was fine (yeah, in most cases). A little drama is very much appreciated, but in this case with this drama, it was overdone and it ruined the whole show. I don't know, but I didn't feel any emotions. I couldn't care less about what was happening.

The main leads were amazing though. I loved both Jung Hyuk and Se Ri and they had a sizzling chemistry! I loved all of their sweet moments. I respect this writer because she definitely knows how to make our hearts flutter with some beautiful romantic scenes. I'm still not a fan of her writing. The second couple was also very sweet, I wish they had more screen time. They focused too much on random supporting characters which made the episodes too long and tiring.

Son Ye Jin was perfect as Se Ri - an adorable and strong female lead. Although I wasn't the biggest fan of Hyun Bin, I admit that he was a total husband material and he did an amazing job at portraying Jung Hyuk. Ye Jin and Hyun Bin definitely suit each other and I'm glad that they were there to save the drama. The same goes for Seo Ji Hye and Kim Jung Hyun.

Overall, ''Crash Landing On You'' is not the worst drama out there, but it's far from perfect. It has its amazing moments, but I believe it's a wasted potential. You can watch it if you like the main leads, but I wouldn't really recommend it.
