MissCookie: Maybe I will get to see the chemistry you are talking about in other shows but in CLOY? I think it's just normal lead actor-actress relationship.
@the bolded, lol, I won't proud myself of watching many Korean dramas but I have truly seen some great ones. If "it doesn't deserve to win best drama", it isn't worth the hype that follows the best drama and if it doesn't deserve to win the best couple award for romcoms, then it isn't "it" for me. I don't know if I can put these two in exactly the same genre but I would watch Goblin a hundred times before seeing CLOY for the second time.
You don't need to watch 100 kdramas to have an opinion
toykathy: I beg to differ madam. If you don't enjoy anything in that drama, the comic in it alone is enough to make up for any shortcomings you see. Talking about chemistry, what exactly did you watch Dearie if that chemistry is not believable then you just like secret garden too much and that clouded your judgment. Cloy is a great drama with excellent casts. Sarang60 and RaphaellaDD over to you guys
LMFAO you're looking for trouble and calling me to participate!
But really HB and SYJ's chemistry is everything. I shipped them even before I watched CLOY or The negotiation. Watch their clips on The Swoon and if you still don't see the chemistry then
CLOY was only slightly overrated IMO. The cast did an excellent job, the dialogue was excellent and the story was a light but interesting one that doesn't happen everyday. Did it deserve to win best drama? No, and it didn't but it was still really good IMO.
Just to gauge, what dramas would you place on Secret garden's level? @MissCookie
kangminhyuksho: Yes urghh you're finally number 2 in my 3rd list, there are 1650 men in my first list, 2 or 4 women in my second list, then you're number 2 in my third list. Clap for yourself
kangminhyuksho: Random post : videos I love. The videos I wanted to post have been taken down by YouTube but...
1. *sigh* and the award for worst 2x speed random play dance on weekly idol goes to highlight, lol it's like they were just turning round and round all through lmao
2. Lol so weekly idol had this segment where a group does their choreo to another group's song so here infinite are supposed to do their dance to gashina, hell oh hell! Epic fail, dong woo was really the only one trying to get the dance but it made him look even weirder, meanwhile sung kyu is just there doing nothing lol and the highlight is all of them gave up and started doing gashina dance
4. Lmao probably my favorite episode during taemin and naeun's wgm. First of all, nobody can convince me that taemin wasn't 100% in love with naeun during that program lol, secondly exo needs to curse taemin for that stress, especially Kai, lol the boy literally became their love messenger, he turned sehun and xiumin deaf and dumb, I died with all the kum kum kum lmao Kris looked so done, Chen and baekhyun looked like "when can I get out of here" lol
sarang60: 1. She sexually assaulted him. I am glad you changed it because the p word is a strong one and he never preyed on her in anyway shape or form.
2. I found it funny and Eww at the same time but I wasn’t offended. There are just somethings that don’t have any underlying meaning to them, they are just meant to entertain. Life is becoming too serious honestly.
KYJ Is STUNNING!!!!!!!!!!
I get that people have different view on certain issues but when they start attacking the person of the actors and their principles then that’s a whole other level.
1) Yeah I realized that after much thinking
She's so beautiful I want to cry!!!
That's what I don't get, why attack the actors? Sigh. I was sha looking forward to this and like I said, I hope they've shown the worst because I want to enjoy the foolishness in peace.
RaphaellaDD: They portrayed a minor kissing a grown ass man. There's literally no reason for that. Sometimes I wonder who approves such things. She could have just blown the kiss or bad as e bad kissed his cheek. They should know better. Hian.
Just finished the first episode. The cons:
1)A minor kissing an adult. Pedophilia no matter the angle you look at it from. MODIFIED: I'm not blaming his character oh because it was out of nowhere so is it reverse pedophilia? LMAO. Let's just go with sexual assault 2)Culture appropriation: if he just had locs and was writing his reggae man manhwa, I won't be offended but a fly in his locs? Sigh.
The pros: 1)A very light drama with lots of funny moments 2) KYJ is so beautiful I'll never stop saying it 3)I'm really curious about the characters and want to know how they ended up where they are.
It has potential and I will keep watching in the hopes that they packed all the offensive things into episode 1. But yeah netizens aren't just hating especially about that kiss.
sarang60: Yes the webtoon was problematic they said but I am sure the drama will be toned down a lot.
It airs at 10pm and I am sure most young ones are asleep. I too am hoping that through out the course of the drama, I don’t see anything morally wrong until then, it’s ok.

MissCookie: I have been reading so many mixed feeling on the first episode, I wonder if this is all media publicity to start the show with high rating or some haters trying to belittle my darling Wookie Oppa's work.
Whatever it is, I am not watching till all the episodes are out.
I'm about to watch the first episode. I've already seen a lot problematic things about the webtoon it was adapted from so I won't be surprised if it has wonky elements.
MissCookie: At the bolded, it is quite sad, I hope they give the stupid man that two timed his pregnant wife as much hell as they give Xabara. I would like her to come back as the Xabara, her voice and poise are just perfect for the role.
You think Yangcha can't handle Saya? His power is in those books he reads, no more no less
I don't think many of the Daekan soldiers can read or write, i can't wait to dymystify his inability to speak.
I hope so too. She was great as Xabara.
LOL Saya will probably make him mistakenly betray Tagon. The pro/con of Saya is that he is a chief manipulator. If he's on your side you're safe, if not lewl. Also I can't wait for Saya and Eunseom to meet. It's going to be deliciously tense LMAO
True! Although with the pace the saram built their empire I'm sure they pay attention to reading and writing at least when their kids are younger. See why they need to produce season 2 asap? Sigh
MissCookie: Lol, I did ship Tanya and Tagon in the first few episodes but as the show progressed, I knew no one else will rock Tagon's world like Taealha does... Tanya and Eunseom never "aroused the ship in me" I would even prefer Tanya/Saya, their aigoo kinda love is cute...
My ultimate ship is Tanya/Yancha I don't know why I have a thing for men on mask, aiigooo! Yancha speaks with his eyes and it's even more intense with Tanya, babe can read his innermost thoughts, that's super sexy and kinky cute Beautiful names, I think I love Xabara the most. I heard she was in bad scandal and it could affect her appearance in AC2.
I would bet Tagon cut off Yancha's tongue when he found out he was an Igutu as he couldn't bare to lose him. I still watch the last episodes of AC as though I am expecting season two will miraculously appear after the last episode, this wait is killing
Xabara's scandal has affected her career, I don't think she'll be in anything any time soon.
LMAO it really is kinky you know but Yangcha will not survive if something happens between them and Saya finds out. I thought so initially (about the tongue cutting) but then can't Yangcha just write it then? Use sign language? Hopefully we'll find out soon!
ibkayee: I’ve seen too many dramas where the asshole gets away with minimal/dry retribution inflicted. Ji Sun Woo’s character was a breath of fresh air.
Tae ho must have naija blood in his lineage, imagine someone doing all the things he did to his wife having the guts to question her character and be upset when she retaliated lol smh
His audacity was out of this world. Even before they got divorced he kept telling her that if she had just overlooked his cheating it won't have ruined their marriage. His character drove me mad. Nah, a scumbag
ibkayee: Ji Sun soo is a troll in this drama lmao, understandably so. Her throwing that money at her idiot ex was hilarious and the scene of him bending to pick it up was so pitiful to watch lol
I enjoyed every second of pitiful Tae Ho. He got what he deserved.
kangminhyuksho: Lewl delude yourself into believing this lie, you have a month of brain washing yourself, I won't steal candy from you baby catfish *struts away in confidence*
Baby catfish doo doo doo doo doo There's no candy to steal in the first place I just fed them all to Rowoon oppa
