Desgraça ao Seu Dispor (2021)

worth it!

I really enjoyed this. Around the middle though I was getting a bit frustrated and had to take a break but once I finally started watching again the rest of the show made up for that annoying bit.

I really loved the characters especially Seon-kyeong, and I loved the side plot with Ji-na. Ji-na and Dong-kyeong's friendship was also really great. I love when drama's have a strong friendship aspect along with the rest of the plot.

The plot really intrigued me from the start but later on it became more obvious that it was an impossible situation. That is what made me have to take a break from the show.

A must watch series

This series is amazing from the staff to the cast everyone did an amazing job.
The plot is just outstanding the cast really did their best work to bring out the uniqueness of the drama.
I would definitely recommend watching this series to everyone and I have already watched it twice it's a must re-watch.
The love story between the cast was simply the best. This series is a show that raised my standards on relationships.
The way the main leads are so quirky and yet so cold at the same time.
As for the actress Park Bo young she did an outstanding job on her role it must of been real hard to take on her character but she did the role so beautifully and graceful. Actor Seo in guk... He just screamed coolness and boyfriend material really did an amazing job on his role which is another character that's hard to play.
This series deserves a season 2 and a high rating

Compelling, literate drama with superb acting

This hauntingly beautiful drama seems to have divided the community. I can't imagine why. It is a well written, highly literate tale of love and redemption aided by superb acting and unusually strong chemistry between the main and secondary leads. The musical score - even more than the songs - lingers in my memory. Doom At Your Service compels careful watching and even more careful listening. It is appropriate that Tak Dong-Kyeong is a literary editor: the writers have created a novel where nearly every line has something important to say.

Park Bo Young is perfection as the heroine who faces a deadly disease and an even more difficult decision. Her character gives comfort, hope, and strength. Like the best K-Dramas, this one will help you on your own road, whatever decisions lie before you. She is a pleasure to watch, completely natural and believable, and her interaction with Doom - well acted by Seo In-Guk- is one the strongest and most powerful I have encountered.

The memorable music in many dramas - Goblin, for example - is the songs that help enhance and underline the story. In Doom At Your Service, there are long sections - particularly in the last episode - of orchestral music that tug at the heart as well. The cinematography adds to the romantic and mysterious atmosphere the writers have created. (I enjoyed the small reference to 'Hotel del Luna' which shares a few points of communality with Doom At Your Service.)

In short, Doom At Your Service goes on my list of very favorite dramas. As soon as I watch another drama with the lovely Park Bo Young, I will watch Doom again and I hope you will too!

A little confusing but great

The whole Doom and God storyline was a little confusing. What were they doing? What could they do? Did he have powers? He was driving everywhere but apparently could appear wherever he wanted. It was confusing but not to the point that it made the series less great in my opinion.

Park Bo Young is one of my favorite actresses. I thought the chemistry was off the charts with In Guk. The second couple (love triangle) was tense at times but sweet. I think she decided on the right guy.

My favorite character was her brother. My gosh he was super funny and this was needed as I cried my eyes out several times.

it was a big emotional buildup to the last episode and I was ready for a fantastic ending with a beautiful wedding. There was a happy ending but no wedding. I just don’t get why she avoided marrying him. This series needed a wedding and a send off to a honeymoon to make it a really satisfying ending. Not sure why this couldn’t happen since it seems like they were grasping at material. Everyone making kimchi could have been cut for a wedding.

These few things deducted half a point or this would have been a 10!

Heartbreaking and intense

Love it. Would be in my top 10 Kdramas. The characters, the feeling, the music and everything were perfect. Would definitely rewatch and Seo In Guk is stunning in this role, not much words from him but his eyers and smile...omg...the kiss...was one of it kind...
Not much to complain from me, this is ultimate love story. If you watched and loved Goblin and A Korean Odyssey this one would be your favorite too.
Just few minor:
1. Sad ending would be more suitable but as happy ending advocate should not complain lol
2. Would prefer it to be shorter around 10 episodes just with main couple only. 1-6 episodes are masterpieces that I already rewatched few times.
3. The second couple was too ordinary and in my opinion not needed here...I skipped all their parts and rewatched all main couples parts hundreds of times...

An up and down

Hmm...well i don't really know how to rate this. I loved the first few episodes, then the plot was kind of all over the place, then it got better again and then the ending was kind of a letdown again. Honestly, the last episode was too much fanservice for me. There was no suspense anymore and only fluff - kinda pointless.

Obviously, the cast is amazing! They had great chemistry and did a really good job with the script they were given. But the dialogues seemed repetitive and the plot was confusing and at times didn't move forward.

I really loved the second leads and was completely in love with Na Ji Na's apartment. I might have taken some inspiration for my own writing desk.

Despite having its weaknesses, I was always looking forward to the release of the next episode because I really liked the atmosphere of the drama. This was partly because of the cast and their chemistry but also because of the amazing OST - I mean if you got Ailee AND Baekhyun on your OST, it's gonna be a masterpiece.

So, to sum it up, it wasn't great but I enjoyed it.

I'd say it's only criticisms are that it doesn't quite live up to initial expectations. It's a fantasy involving impending doom so it should be an emotional experience and it just doesn't really draw those tears out. Only when Dong Kyung comes to grips with her fate does those tears seem to come out. But it's brief and it's predictable outcome makes it hard to feel that doom lingering. And back to the other criticisms (that's right, plural): it's a little disjointed. There are two main plots: Dong Kyung and Myeol Mang doing the fantasy elements with deities, illnesses, etc and the other half, a love triangle with Joo Ik, Lee Hyun Kyu and Na Ji Na. Both were good on their own. Yes, the Love Triangle took its time to get interesting but there was something lacking in linking these two together. Maybe it was to do some world building and put emphasis on the otherworldly elements but it felt disjointed. It didn't seem like these plots were in the same universe. I enjoyed the show but it was, at best, a pretty good show. I have a tendency to not complete dramas and this had me watching from Ep 1 to Ep 16. That's an accomplishment.

All the actors were good in their roles. Kang Tae Oh was somewhat wasted as he mostly just stood there and smiled. Admittedly the idea of his character was a fantasy, a figment of past memories by Ji Na but wasted is the term that I'll go for. The best two actors were the ones with the strongest characters - Seo In Guk and Lee Soo Hyuk. Lee Soo Hyuk is so good and I'm glad he was used correctly. Tak Dong Kyung as a character was likeable. The choices the writers go in aren't too wayward. Park Bo Young was witty and amusing as always.

I had a good idea of what I was going to write for this review and rethinking about it has made me rewrite complete sentences. Enjoyable but wasted potential.

A AMAZING SUPERNATURAL AND EXICTING DRAMA

Bo young and In Guk slayed this drama, this drama is packed comedy,sadness,reality & many more things.
Loved how they were bickering at first and it was quite funny.
It was a really unique concept I loved it, this drama hit all the emotions perfectly, it was pretty unique from other dramas,
It felt unreal while while watching the drama, it was so wholesome, and had you smiling throughout the drama.
There was more to the plot than you might think, it will get you hooked.

It was wasnt only focused on Bo young and in Guk as other dramas do, it was focused on other characters which made it interesting, exciting,funny & not boring. Let me tell you the music/OST was so good that i added it to my Spotify,the background music it self was magical.

It had potential

This K-Drama had the potential to be one of the best but the second half of it was such a letdown

Why did I like the first half so much? The main couple were undeniably adorable, the story between Myeongmal and the deity made me curious, the second lead couple were decently interesting [keep this in mind], and the main female lead's story about her terminal disease was also interesting. As a video student, the cinematography was just genuinely amazing. On top of that, Ailee's OST "Breaking Down" was undeniably one of the best OST's there are.

But what happened to it? Why did I ended up giving the story a 6 and rewatch value a 4.5?
It was genuinely draggy, the story between Myeongmal and the deity was built up and it was at its climax but they didn't explore it deeper, the second lead couple became boring and toxic. Kevin's scenes [the Aunt's canadian boyfriend] could've been swapped with a story for the deity. They also didn't explore Dongkyung's disease any deeper.

Now am I saying that I hated the second half? No. As much of a letdown it was, I still liked it. I liked Seonkyung's story of discovering what he wanted at the end, Joo-ik leaving the publishing company to create his own, the main lead couple was once again adorable, the editorial team had a better story than the second lead couple even though they were only there for a few episodes.

Overall:

I didn't regret watching it but would I rewatch it? I want to say yes but I would not waste 16 hours re-watching this one. It was a decent k-drama with pretty cast, pretty ost, pretty cinematography but boring writing [at least for the second half].

To be honest, the storyline was a little confusing to me, but the acting, the OST and the cinematography made it up to me. Seo Inguk and Kang Taeoh are so handsome that was a huge bonus. I don’t really like the second romance, only because I’m not a huge fan of love triangles, and Kang Taeoh was so likeable and cute😭. Her brother was also really cute and fun to watch. I sort of expected it to be super sad and melodramatic but it was quite light. Although it did have some super sad moments. And I know people wanted it to be a sad ending but tbh who watches shows for their realistic aspect? I watch purely for entertainment so sad endings don’t work for me. Overall it was a really great watch, I definitely recommend it.

My thoughts in this drama is so-so, I mean it was not bad but it's not something I'd add to my favorites either. The story is what I already expected of fantasy dramas, it was really dramatic. At some point, I find myself losing interest because there is nothing much happening. The story is quite straightforward. For the characters, I sometimes didn't like how the FL would run away when she feels like she's become a burden to people but at the same, I can relate lmao. Park Bo Young as always nailed her character here. Seo In Guk also suits Myul Mang, he looks so good and cute at the same time. I thought we would be getting more supernatural beings here, like Lee Soo Hyuk for example (his visuals really fits perfectly for those roles) but we only get Doom or Myul Mang (not a big deal but it would be more,, entertaining if there's more?) I also liked Na Ji Na's love story development in the drama, Idk but I find the side couple really cute. The chemistry also of the main leads is oozing with cuteness. Overall, I must say I like this drama but it's just in the middle for me. The thing that made me rate this high is the cast and their chemistry.
