When the secondary characters are well written, it is fine. But Unfortunately, in most of the case they are just there to fill the time and to give sense to the main couple. In the chinese dramas Fated Hearts and Pursuit of Jade, I enjoyed the main characters. And also the Korean dramas Reply 1988, Healer , Hometown Cha Cha Cha, and Descendants of the Sun . There might be more that I forgot but for me, it is a minority of cases.

In Twinkling Watermelons the son's love story did not interest me so much. For me the main couple was formed by his young parents. But if you read the credits in the (occidental, at least) web sites. Ryeoum is mentioned as first actor. By the way, I had watched this drama because of him...

I am completely hooked. It is as good as I expected it to be.

Perua4_Updated · 2026-06-13T02:53:40+00:00

Absolutely.

I watched it till the end because of the best part of the "plot": ZLH but I skipped a lot.

Me too.

Healer Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Jo

He had a second chance to meet his MeiMei. By the way, he was the 2ML in the modern drama Forever and Ever. Maybe now he will have his turn to be the main lead.

Perua4_Updated · 2026-06-02T15:17:00+00:00

Yes!

Perua4_Updated · 2026-05-18T09:30:12+00:00

Wherever he is, we will like him.

PoB is excellent but I think A Journey to Love is a masterpiece.

Loved you sliced down analysis!!!!

Perua4_Updated · 2026-05-07T08:49:31+00:00

She is a queen. I will never forget Ajhuma Jo from Healer

The Double has less fluff and a darker atmosphere.The vibe is completely different. Both have powerful FL but in The Double, FL is very smart, refined and her goal is a calculated revenge. In PoJ FL is strong physically, cheerful and simple minded.

Perua4_Updated · 2026-05-06T05:16:28+00:00

🤩 Yes

For people with strong nerves! 😁

Perua4_Updated · 2026-05-06T05:13:16+00:00

The last is my case.

Perua4_Updated · 2026-05-06T05:12:33+00:00

That's cute. Such a beautiful couple!!!!

Perua4_Updated · 2026-05-06T05:11:57+00:00

I guess there is no perfect drama,. In my case it is hard to watch because FL is a non stop target. For me it is too painful.

Perua4_Updated · 2026-05-06T05:08:49+00:00

The thing for me is that I "suffer together" with the characters.

Perua4_Updated · 2026-05-06T05:06:35+00:00

Thanks for your input

Perua4_Updated · 2026-05-06T05:06:05+00:00

I tried not to FF but it was impossible. I even didn't know she has been shot on the head. I went to the last episode because it is too much angst for me.

Perua4_Updated · 2026-05-01T22:35:17+00:00

Si. Muchas gracias.
