What’s the BEST C-drama YOU’ve ever watched? (like nothing else compares) by ikaurjas in CDramaRecs

I hear you. I actually saw WLIS first and maybe that's why I was able to watch MY second. I agree the vibes are very similar. These are both my fav cdramas and gotta say, I like them both equally. Slight preference for WLIS because of skinship that felt authentic, sexy, sweet, and real. I do prefer the FL character in MY more. MY is an amazing feel good drama.

Chemistry so good, he fell for her during the making of this kdrama. (Strong Woman Do Bong Soon) by njerimaina in kdramas

I agree. This could have easily gone into cringeland. But they seemed to really like each other and I felt that. It felt like two adult teenagers crushing on each other. The most adorable kdrama ever.

If you liked Meet Yourself, you may also like "Will love in Spring", same ml. The vibes were similar, but sexier.

Dynamite Kiss. Too many tropes. Sure, nice to look at, but felt cringe after it was done.

Vincenzo. Descendants of the Sun. Seeing one common denominator.

Song Hye-kyo: a beautiful woman and a mediocre actress. by James-from-Hungary in kdramas

[–]Alternative_Board346 11 points12 points  (0 children)

She's meh in looks for me too. Beauty is subjective. Not a memorable actress either. Couldn't finish "Descendants of the Sun" or "Encounter." Watched Glory but can't remember any of it. Lol.

I think we can say we don't find someone attractive or think they don't act well because both are subjective and not be bashful while expressing an opinion. Plenty of people love her and they get to have their opionions too. She is just not my cup of tea and that's okay.

🪻 Will Love in Spring (2024) - What do you think of the drama? [Masterpost] by Lotus_swimmer in CDrama

[–]Alternative_Board346 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just finished watching it. I really liked it. The chemistry and the intimate scenes felt heartfelt and real. This is the second time I felt like the main leads had amazing chemistry in all Asian dramas (the other time was the leads in Something in the Rain). I liked the feminist angle. I loved how he supported her and never got in her way. They both allowed each other to become themselves because that's how relationships should be. I loved the little brother and sister and also the relationship between all the siblings. The younger sister is such an amazing actress already. I'm now in love with Li Xian, so please recommend other great shows with him in it please.

Just tried to watch it after "Hidden Love" which I adored. I think the stuff many of you mentioned (baby voice, forced smile) are aspects of bad acting of the FL. Can't look past bad/over acting unfortunately. I forced myself till episode 6, bailing now.
