Bit boring at times

The drama was good but it has some boring episodes! The story loses its charm somewhat after 4th episode and again after episode 11. I kept waiting for some big twist or event to happen but nothing happens for a long time . In the beginning of the show, there is a huge emphasis on butterflies as they indicate towards something big. Those butterflies were the reason why both brothers keep moving and relocating but turns out it was not that big deal.
The romance between Kang tae and Ko moon is also not very exciting.It just seems pretty obvious what will happen next.it’s predictable. Nothing to keep the audience on their toes and make them jump with excitement. The excitement elements are missing in its okay not to be okay besides that story has some weaknesses .

It could’ve ended better!!

I just finished snowdrop and i am disappointed by the ending. The male lead dug his own grave!
Don’t get the wrong idea I liked the drama but the ending was too much to process . I get why they call this drama a k-trauma!
Biggest disappointment was that Soo-ho and his comrades went through ALL THAT just to end up dead !!!! Why drag the hostage situation till the end, make multiple deals with ANSP and give the spies hope that they can survive if they were gonna end up like this! I was relived when they got out of the dorm but then soo-ho decides to go back in the dorm. Like Wtf just save your life and run. The main couple was not gonna end up together anyway. Was it necessary to kill him and his comrades!
I was also let down because the romance between soo-ho and yeong ro was shown in first and last few episodes. They barely had any moments together. In the end it was all about survival and their romance didn’t even matter at that point bcz you just want them to survive somehow even if they are apart. That spark , that chemistry, and the passion they had in the beginning episodes was just gone by the end. It was suppose to be a romantic story but it turned into an action thriller and romance existed only in the background. I wanted to see more of soo-ho and yeong ro but alas.

I would Specially mention Dr.kang, she was the boss lady. She came as a surprise,loved her character, she was my fav till the end and I am happy atleast she survived.
Han na seemed really annoying in the beginning but she played a big role trying to rescue students. So I loved these two boss ladies.
One thing they should’ve cleared in the end but didn’t was that what happened to soo ho’s sister? Did she survived ?

I wanted to write a review after i’ve finished the show but couldn’t wait as i needed to share what i felt till episode 10. I doubt it will change much after this point. Both the Male leads are my favourite kdrama actors. I didn’t sided with any of them before starting the show and decided to leave it on their character solely(whom I will side with).

First episode was used entirely to build a connection between Ji pyeong and Dal mi and i instantly connected with the “GOOD BOY”. I felt a spark in his character and it didn’t took long for me to side with him. He played a guardian angel for Dal mi but he deserved to be a lot more than that. It was his efforts that held Do san and Dal mi togather till the middle of the show and i hated seeing all the credit taken by Nam do san. I feel like the writer should’ve exposed the situation to Dal mi in the beginning episodes and then led her heart to decide who she wants to be with. But poor Ji pyeong didn’t even got the window to be a love interest for Dal mi as she never saw him in romantic light and was only invested in Nam Do San. It wasn’t fair.

Nam so san although made a late entry but shined through the entire show with his innocent and kind personality. He portrayed a nerdy engineer guy so well. No one could hate him but I still feel like his personality was overshadowed by the “Nam do san” in the letters. He got Dalmi by luck though he slowly earned his place in her heart.
In jae’s character was wasted, she had a lot more potential than what her role was confined to in the show. She was used as a prop to make female lead look like a winner as they needed a character against the female lead. They were sisters and didn’t liked their rivalry and the that they were pinned against each other. it was unfair to injae and the character she could’ve been.

I don’t have much to say about Dalmi except that i wasn’t a fan of her in the beginning episodes but she grows on you as the show proceeds. Still she wasn’t as loveable as both of the guys were.
Over all startup was different show than many kdramas that are filled with cliches and typical romance. I liked it but hoped for a different ending. A happy ending for the good boy ☹️

I can watch it a 100 times and still won’t get bored.

One moment you are laughing your ass off and the other moment it gets soo intense. Nail bitting suspense keeps you watching episode after episode bcz you can’t wait to see what will happen next. And suddenly without realising you reach towards the end ?
Its perfect blend of comedy, romantic moments, political drama and action. Totally different than any other k-dramas that I have watched before. It kept me hooked until the very end which is rare bcz I get bored very easily.

Queens acting just blew me away she did it soo perfectly. The body language, the expressions and emotions all made it a hit. Though I felt bad when bong hwan returned back to his world and the queens soul comes back. It actually felt like something went missing. I feel like some clarity was needed here about the feelings between bong hwan and the king.
I loved the support characters. They did an amazing job. Added it to One of my favs list. Chefs kiss ?

If you want to watch a light rom-com don’t hesitate to watch

Ik i am in minority here but i really enjoyed watching the matchmakers. As long as i feel entertained throughout 16 episodes, i’ll keep watching the drama. The show has soo many laugh out loud moments. I almost choked.

What i loved:
Our male lead: lord shim is hilarioussss. He is the funniest character in the show. His expressions are soo freaking funny.

Strong female characters: there are soo many strong and independent ladies in the show. Even the main villain is a women.

The matchmaking operation: the main theme of the show was to wed spinsters with old bachelors and entire process is hilarious.

The music is soo beautiful, gives a refreshing feel.

What I disliked:
The unnecessary murder mystery plot that made the show serious in 2nd half.

Matchmaking a kid with an older women. That was odd pairing and left a bitter taste in my mouth.

It’s amazing how crash landing on you has soo much to offer.There is thrill ,romance,heartbreak,action ,comedy and lots of beautiful views.Each episode is so eventful and so much happening in each episode that one cannot get bored at any episode.That is why I completed it in just 4 days bcz I couldn’t stop watching. The good part is that the suspense didn’t break or end in any episode,one event ends and another exciting event is waiting in the next episodes. The twists and the suspense without affecting the actual story or plot was really amazing.most dramas lose the actual plot with a lot of twists but that is not the case for crash landing on you.it keeps you hooked and wanting for more with each episode until the end
