There Were No Chickens Under the Moonlight

What a show! I went in fully expecting a cheating storyline to unfold which was there, but now the way I thought.

The show depicts struggles of love, loss, being queer, and just life for different generations. Sometimes love doesn't always have a happy endings, you find love in a place you never thought you would. They did an amazing job portraying all the loves we experience in life.

I think watching this made me feel like I have been in all their shoes at one point in my life. Being young and in love, falling out of love, finding a new love and being scared out of my wits. The characters are flawed, no one is perfect but that doesn't make them a bad person. Even when you find a character that you hate/might not agree with, you will find yourself seeing those same character in new light in the next episode.

So it was very easy to get submerge in this drama and at times it felt overwhelming. Definitely high on my recommended dramas.

It's Ryan not Lion

This was a fun little drama. Somethings were overdone like the bitchy boss and childhood storyline but other than that the romance storyline really overpowered all my complains.

The main reason I watched it when it came out because of the fangirl summary and back then me being a huge fan of certain idol group lol. So to me, Dukmi was highly relatable with her full time job and still continuing her fangirling.

At the beginning they portrait Ryan as this rude full of himself guy but when the show progressed and we see how Ryan was really just a polite, charming absolute softie you cannot help but fall for him.

Both Dukmi and Ryan start out with misunderstanding to then become colleagues and then start a fake relationship which spirals and as we all know the trope they end up falling for each other.

Would watch this again 100%

Is this what happiness feels like?

First of all, I am biased when it comes to this drama. I am only gonna sing raises.

How do you even make something so precious? I never read the manga which I probably should. Adachi, a meek office worker about to step into his 30th year, suddenly acquires the ability to read peoples mind upon touch alone. Anyone would be scared, seek help, but Adachi decides its just another curve ball life decided to throw at him and he is going to do his ABSOLUTE best to avoid human contact to survive this curse or gift.

He doesn't plan on finding out one of his colleague has feelings for him, but when he does find out circumstances keep bringing them together and Adachi starts seeing the world in a new view.

I have watched this so many times I lost count.

old school but not really

This was a delightful little drama. The tropes, cliché things you see in a kdrama, everything was here but with a twist. Experiencing all the old school tropes in a refreshing manner is praiseworthy IMO. It's been a while since I have seen a drama that made me laugh so much. Definitely revived my love for the whole rom-com genre all over again.

The friendship, THE FRIENDSHIP! I cannot express in words just how much I adore both Ha Ri and Young Seo's friendship. Also Kang Tae Moo and Secretary Cha was absolutely superb. NGL I did think secretary Cha might be shady because of how old school the drama seemed.

I wouldn't mind giving it full score if the second couples story line had a bit more at the ending! It felt like the last shots between Young Seo and Sung Hoon didn't get a proper polish in post production.

Overall highly enjoyable. If you are up for some light hearted rom-com kdrama, give this a chance.
