Finished watching Still 17 urf thirty but seventeen and I absolutely loved it.

This show is everything I love about a good Rom-Com. What's not to like about this drama? Beautiful characters, a simple but heartfelt story executed remarkably well, a lovely uplifting OST, humor as well as of tear-jerker moments. Also, it finishes beautifully - the ending isn't rushed in the last ten minutes of the drama. No, for once, we take a good amount of time to explore character progression, and really tie off things with a lovely little bow at the end. Characters move on, they grow up and they move forward. And it was a joy to see it shown so well! I was smiling like an idiot all the way through that Episode 16 Finale.

The pacing of the drama was great. There were no boring episodes. There were no excessively stretched arcs, the characters never got boring, I was always rooting for our protagonist Woo Seo-ri and cheering for her along the way, whilst continuously being more and more intrigued by Kong Woo-Jin. Yu Chan was ball of sunshine.

His two best friend-sidekicks were super sweet, while Jennifer's character took me by Jennifer was super cool, and brought a lot of stability to this narrative.
It sounds silly to say, but honestly, I couldn't find any character who I really strongly disliked in this show - they did this really well. Everyone had a story, everyone had their own demons they were fighting through, and sooner or later, you understood where they were coming from.

I was also a huge fan of the relationships shown between all the characters. The leads in particular - THIS is how you have a non-toxic relationship that is still really heart-fluttering. Simple things like her no longer calling him "Ahjussi" once they got together and, instead going "Woo-jin-a" really won me over. They were believable. It wasn't just oh, here we have a couple of heart fluttering moments here and there and bam, happily ever after. No, this one made sense - they were awkward first. Their hugs got better and cozier as they began to like each other more and more. Their chemistry felt more natural as the series progressed - it wasn't perfect from the get go. I loved how human they were. How awkward they were, and how flawed they were.

So, all in all, if you're looking for a nice pick me up, I would highly recommend you give this one a shot.

Finished:

The Untamed

Through the darkness - I really liked this show. Makers focused more on criminal profiling.

I'm dropping Kill me love me. It started well but after that it went downhill. Tried watching on ff mode but still it couldn't keep my interest.

if I remember correct, you started something lovely but did not finish that... It was a different story all together with just their names being same (almost)


I miss those nice story days.... Soo many people left the show due to it's triggering content.... Such shame.

Watched Intense love.. smiley42smiley42smiley42smiley42 ML and FL engaged in childhood..

FL is extremely beautiful.. For a change someone with no bangs or trousers.. I loved her so much.. She had a tough job here.. For 10 straight episodes she goes on embarrassing viewers in trying to seek attention from ML( her fiance)who is an introvert, extremely shy person.. I faced first hand embarrassment seeing her do thatsmiley24

Lmao.. His colleague says he spoke to him only after 6 months.. So FL will have tough time smiley37ML is smitten by her from day 1 and loves all her attention seeking activities and enjoys it but doesn't know how to reciprocate but later gives up his sakth launda image because he falls in love completely with her.. smiley36

Overall a nice watch if we 2x the show whenever she tries to seek his attention for first 10 episodes .. From epi 11 it is a nice, warm show..
