Alguma Coisa na Chuva (2018)

A refreshing change

I enjoyed this drama quite a bit as it does something that is not seen in most dramas. Having an older female lead get chased by a younger man is quite different and refreshing from the usual older man chasing a younger woman, it changes the perspective and shows the worries of that kind of relationship.
The acting is done very well to portray the innocence of Joon Hee and Yoon Jin Ah does a very good job of showing the struggles of liking a younger man.
The story is quite similar to most romantic dramas but the role reversal keeps it interesting and makes you want to keep on watching to see what happens in this adorable relationship.

If you do not want to stray too far from the usual rom-com but also want a slight change this would be perfect for you :)

The first thing about this drama: I understand now why everyone compares this with "One spring night". Did they put all the same actors on purpose? That said, I thought "Something in the rain" more interesting for me than "One spring night". Still slow for my taste, but more interesting. One thing that I thought very similar: why this kind of drama just have one song in the OST? For God's sake, I couldn't handle with "sometime is hard to be a woman,,," anymore. But ok, let's talk about the good things.

I thought very useful the plot about sexual harassment. The way how they told with so much true really made me think. I never get tired of this kind of theme because I see as a way of the show to other people something there is real. And the closer was also as expected... No spoilers.

About the cast, I like to say that Jung Hae-in is my regular oppa. If we talking about "adult dramas" this is the actor. I love this man, my gosh. I really think his performance deep and believable. I met Son Ye-jin with "Personal taste", and after that on"Crashing land on you", but I think her pretty good in this drama. I thought the chemistry between them amazing. They are so cute! I get myself smiling a lot during the episodes. The story goes slow but you can be involved if you like this kind of show. I get a little upset when I saw how tough some topics are in Korea, maybe because here things are pretty different. But I think dramas like this are a changing in some minds out there (hope so)!

Una realidad de la sociedad coreana

Me maravilló la primera que lo vi y esta segunda vez mi opinión acerca de este drama no ha variado mucho. Los dos trabajos de esta guionista y director merecen su buen reconocimiento.

Este drama habla en su mayor parte sobre la mujer en Corea, en concreto el abuso laboral, las oportunidades y lo difícil que es hacer justicia. Es una realidad que esta serie lo ha podido mostrar como es, este tipo de tramas hace que la sociedad reflexione y pueda ver un camino más allá de quedarse callado sin hacer nada, mientras otros siguen como sí nada hubiera pasado. Comentar más allá de esta parte importante de la trama serie dar spoiler, sin embargo todo el transcurso fue muy doloroso y me daba mucha impotencia como se iba desarrollando hasta llegar a esa conclusión. Ojalá algún día esto no llegue a ser un problema y más mujeres sean capaces de dar un paso adelante. También en pareja el hecho de no tener respeto hacia la intimidad de tu novia, no respetarla y solo verla como un objeto que usar porque no tienes más opciones. Aunque esta parte fue corta es sin duda horrible.

Otro tema a destacar es la visión de la mujer a sus casi cuarenta años, el hecho de que ser una “solterona” es una vergüenza para la familia. Esa presión social para encontrar cualquier hombre para atarse y así librarse de habladurías, sumándose la presión familiar y lo peor de todo es que esa persona debe encajar con los ideales de la familia. La madre de la protagonista, quien solo es capaz de hablar sobre el futuro, sumándose a su gran ego y orgullo que pueden ser destrozados tan fácilmente si algunos de sus hijos no cumplen sus expectativas, y cuya persona no tiene ningún problema de manipular viéndose a ella con la víctima de toda una situación que a ella, realmente, no le incumbe. Acosarla, no respetar su privacidad y no mostrando respeto hacia su propia hija. Esta señora es una real villana enmascarada con una tierna cara de “madre que se preocupa por su hijos”.

En conclusión, una realidad y sobre todo en la sociedad coreana.

Su trama es de diez, su soundtrack, escenas súper bonitas y el elenco hace de esta serie, como ya dije, una maravilla.

Totalmente recomendable.

This show was so romantic and made me feel all warm in the heart. I really loved the way the show panned out before the last couple of episodes. The last couple of episodes totally ruined the show for me because it was totally uncalled for and it just came out of nowhere. I felt like they had to drag on the conflict between them only to come to this conclusion. It felt cheap for such a nice production to begin with. It's been almost a year since I've seen this. I remember that I was so frustrated with some of the characters' decisions.

I totally fell in love with Jung Hae In and Son Ye Jin. Man, can we just say his smile is just so beautiful? I'm totally in love with his character.

The story could have been better since I felt like there were a lot of unnecessary and repetitive conflicts. I felt like as the episodes go on they have little character development to give us besides the hugging and kissing that we've seen so much of already. There was a huge built up to their relationship, but as episodes go on their relationship becomes 2 dimensional. Not really fully fleshed out. I feel like this drama didn't know what it wanted to be in the end. The first half had me really going then it just went downhill. Good acting and nice cinematography can't save the whole show if the characters start feeling boring or the story is not being very smart.

I also love the songs played, it added so much more feels to the scenes.

Also, I've been totally out of the Korean drama loop for a while since none seem to interest me anymore, so this is my first comeback in a while haha.

STAND BY YOUR MAN

One of the OST is 'Stand by your man' but this girl doesn't stand by her man. Seo Joon-Hui (Jung Hae-in) is the best candidate for sainthood for putting up with alot of s**ts of Yoon Jin-ah (Son Yi-Jin), 4 years his senior that he loves her terribly and deeply, that would protect and care to depth of his heart. The best perfect boyfriend that any girls in this world will go gaga over, his smile would brighten anyone. Both of MLs are very strong chemistry, a handsome cute 31 years old who fallen hard in love with his older sister's bestfriend - his bestfriend's sister, whose family considered them as their own son and daughter for long standing support and friendship between them. Suddenly, they're in relationship - although a secret love affair - afraid to reveal their true feelings to their family.....doubt confessing it to her mother which fairly ending the love story. Ep 10 starts with heartbreaking scenes, as the episodes progress their love puts on the line - the test that will be determined the true love.

Read the review and many don't like this drama. I love it, a love story that has depth, hope and love that would not survive when both give up on the relationship like many of us do. About the age different between them as an issue, 4 years age gap isn't bad, I don't understand the reason why her mom against their relationship. They aren't blood brother/sister, although he isn't coming from prestige family background but he adores and loves her....isn't it all matter? Obsessing with background, Mom becomes the most hated character here. Poor Joon-Hui, that guy deserves a noble award for 'best boyfriend' type.

Part of 'Stand by your man' lyric said;
But if you love him, you'll forgive him
Even though he's hard to understand
And if you love him, oh, be proud of him
'Cause after all, he's just a man
Well.....Joon Hui isn't like a type of man described on the lyric....he is the opposite. Probably, I love this drama because I can relate with my personal experience...the best and worst of being loved and in love...and when it's fallen apart.

This drama became my standard of what should i watch.

Ever since i watched this drama.. almost every other drama that i watched next felt so lame for me. I loved how realistic this is. The build up from the first 2 episodes may be a lil boring but everything became exciting after.. I think this drama breaks the norm of most kdramas. The depth of each character's emotion is elaborate which i really like.. and the cast all did so well. The only that may drag this drama down is the female lead's mother who is so
infuriating. The FL's mom's character was so immature and became so frustratingly unreasonable.. for me. To put it simply, this drama became my standard of what to watch.

Uno de los doramas más preciosos y románticos que he visto. Y sobre todo, es la química entre ellos lo que me robó el corazón por completo. Se ve completamente real... la forma en que se ven., que se tocan, que se acercan. Todo es completamente WOW. La recomiendo al mil por ciento.

La historia es simple, Joon Hee y Jin Ah se han conocido de toda la vida, él es el mejor amigo de su hermano pequeño y a su vez, hermano menor de su mejor amiga. Después de volver de su viaje a América, se reencuentran sin planearlo y simplemente fue un nuevo click. Algo que no planificaron ni que contaban pasara. Dado que justamente ella es abandonada por su novio de años, y todo comienza a calzar para que ellos se acerquen. En un momento que él confiesa que está enamorado de una Noona, pero que no cree ella le corresponda, debajo de la mesa ella toma su mano y fue toda la respuesta que él necesitaba. Se lanza completamente a cortejarla al comenzar a salir.

Son tan dulces, tan perfectos. Es sobretodo un amor creíble. Natural y espontáneo.

Las complicaciones vienen porque su familia no lo acepta, porque él es menor y sin recursos. Y pues, empiezan las adversidades. Me gusta que este drama trata varios temas difíciles en nuestras vidas, como el acoso laboral, ¿qué tanto cedes para conservar tu trabajo? También, la influencia de los padres en nuestra vida, ¿siempre tienen ellos la razón sólo por ser padres? Lo que es la exclusión social, ¿acaso él tiene la culpa de que su padre le haya abandonado? ¿Es menos que ella por eso? Te hace reflexionar en muchos aspectos como la protagonista, que logra madurar y crecer gracias a él.

MIL ESTRELLAS PARA ESTO.

READ IT TILL THE VERY END...
every scene every episode is a bit dragged out.. i didn't watch episode 15 and caught on just fine.. but the story was really good.. something a lot of people can relate to.. being an Indian i know how imposing parents can be.. since i myself is going through a similar situation depicted in this drama. so i couldn't help but love the story.. ending was really really good.. but a few episodes lesser would have sufficed.. one should watch it for a very relating and realistic story of love.. the essence of love in here is real..the characters and their flawless chemistry is just beyond real.. cheers!

Disappointed AF

Started so good, mehhh at the middle part, frustrated and disappointed af at the last part. I feel like i wasted my 9hours. 9hrs only because i enjoyed the first part. The female character was absolutely worst. Decisions.. like girl?! And to add up, the mother of Jin A. I hate her so much to the point that I would like to scream yet all I can do is rant on my twitter acccnt cursing her.. last time I hate this kind of parents was while watching Sky Castle and Boys Over Flowers. Ahahah they are the worst type of parents. Haha anyways.. all i can say is "SAYANG" hae in and ye jin were the best. Just that the script or plot is... ugh still disappointed. Sorry for the rant
