Too frustrating to watch

“Queen of tears” as the title suggests there were just too many tears. Not because it was too emotional but it was too frustrating. It should be added in melodramas not comedy
HIGHLIGHT : I loved the story in the beginning episodes, plot looked unique and fresh but as the story develops and moves forward , it doesn’t stick to the same uniqueness and loses its originality. The second half of the show seems like just any other kdrama with the same destiny and saviour plot. I thought oh they’ve met before in school and THAT WOULD BE IT ! but NOOO, the writer had to force the saviour part in it too.
I was more interested in as to why the couple drifted apart but plot took an entirely different course.

MAIN LEAD: I don’t know why kdrama writers are obsessed with portraying ML as a super hero, why they gotta be perfect at everything. Beak hyun woo was ALL IN ONE ; top student, best attorney, black belt in karate and top swimmer. Was that really necessary for the story ?? I don’t think soo, I would still have loved baek hyun woo even if he didn’t saved hae in their childhood or didn’t took bullet for hae in. He didn’t need those decorative traits as him marrying hae in for love and not for her money was enough to get him through the entire story.

As for the FL, I liked her overall as there was consistency in her character and she develops a soft side due to the illness. But her amnesia part was horribly written. She had major surgery and there was not even a single bandage on her head and she recovered soo quickly it was hilarious. Even if it’s a drama but realistic factors can still be incorporated in the show to give it a real life touch. That memory loss was the worst part of the show almost made me want to drop the show.

As for Soo cheol (brother), he was lame from the beginning to the end. I thought he will have some relevance after they got scammed but No, He let the wife get away with everything she did soo easily. It was annoying and their love story was not interesting at all instead made me angry.

The grandfather died for nothing. He got the chance to say last words but didn’t said anything meaningful. I thought he will give information about the slush fund or will reveal some useful secret but he didn’t.
Beom ja( aunt) was a fresh character. I liked her.

STORY: Plot was interesting only to the part where the focus was on main couple’s martial problems. They were expecting a child so what happened there and after that ! hyun woo’s hate for haein in that situation wasn’t justified. As for later I lost interest after the family got kicked out from the queens, because the plot become about getting their positions and money back. The predictability of the story made me lose interest. The family lost shares and got kicked out from their own home, but they had nowhere to go was too much considering they were super rich. Rich people have many unregistered properties and accounts. It was unbelievable the family didn’t have anywhere to go. And only hyun woo was trying to do something for the family.
Can’t forget to mention, hae in’s illlness become a literal joke in the last few episodes. At this point even theirs tears become forced and too much. it didn’t make me emotional anymore. Last episodes were filled with what not(all cliches) . The story should’ve been about the married couple and their problems or the class differences they faced or even haein’s illness and recovery.
Based on the story and watchability I will rate “8”for episode 1-6 ( interesting)
“6”for episode 7 to 11( slow and okaish)
“4” for episode 12 to 16( they were dreadful)

There is light at the end of the tunnel

“Tomorrow ” has been in my watchlist since 2022 and I finally mustered up courage to watch it. Even thou it still wasn’t enough as the show relies on some heavily sensitive content that I was not expecting at all. If you want to watch Tomorrow, you should be mentally prepared for the trauma. Although i keep watching to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Even thou healing isn’t that quick or easy but every story did exhibit some hope, hidden lesson which made it worth it at the end. Once you get into the show,it’s hard to stop because you want to see what happens next, whose story will it be now.
The fried chicken episode and the last three episodes were my favourite because we finally get to see Mr. park and Ms Koo’s story. I was waiting for their story since the beginning of the show. And it was a longgg wait but worth it..
The show had the similar vibe to hotel deluna but I’ll prefer rewatching hotel de luna than tomorrow because this show is too intense. Not for everyone.
I would’ve liked if Rowoon had a love interest or some grim reaper girl crush, it would’ve been fun to watch and that could’ve lighten up the show a bit. But it was good overall.

Not a very memorable love story

The story was good but not too impressive. Plot was quite plain as there were no twists and turns. Even so there were some things that i enjoyed; like the bonding between klar team members and ML’s sisters and his niece.
There were also things that i disliked, and on the top of that list is the female lead. She started off as such a caring and sweet person but she was soo mean to her mother. She treated her mother soo poorly and her reasons were lame. From that point onwards i just couldn’t side with her even thou she is the main lead. She treated the ML based on her convenience and her feelings for him never seemed convincing enough.
The chemistry was off for some reason, especially from the FL’s side. . In order to fall in love with a drama, i first need to like the characters and if the characters aren’t that good or convincing enough then i can’t fall for their story. ML tried too hard and he seemed more in love than the FL. Hence there balance in the relationship kind of felt off to me.

Better story than many typical kdramas

I enjoyed the incorporation of 80s backdrop and life in a female dorm. It gave college vibes. The drama gave a unique aesthetic feel that I just loved . Main lead couple’s chemistry was good as they give off Romeo and Juliet vibes. I wish they had more scenes together. We didn’t get to see them together as much. So the sweet moments were less and tragic ones were more.
Although 70% of the story revolved around the hostage situation and I feel like the situation was dragging more than necessary. Still i can’t deny that it had me hooked till the end. because story was interesting and full of plot twits. . I never thought a political plot will interest me and keep me hooked. Ending was expected but the FL was left was nothing at all. It would’ve been better if she was less miserable at the end.
Yoo inna came as a surprise . Absolutely loved her character and her performance. She was the star of the show.

The story was different than usual kdramas and less predictable too. Story gets gloomy after few episodes and gets more and more tense towards the end yet I still enjoyed it. Because it kept me on my toes as to what will happen next.

The OG kdrama!!! Loved every second of it.

I love, love, loved it . Weightlifting fairy is an OG kdrama for a reason. Truly, 2016 kdrama vibes are totally unmatched. I’ve been avoiding this kdrama for years cuz the title sounded lame and i wasn’t very excited about a tomboy female lead. But boy oh boy was i wrong!!! Just 20 mins into the show and I fell in love with Kim bok joo. She is a Tom boy but such a softie and sweet girl. I absolutely loved her and every aspect of her character. The popularity of this drama is totally justified.

The story is funny, cute and you will fall in love with the main lead couple. Nam jo hyuk you hunk!!! OMG can he get any more hotter than this!! I wasn’t expecting to get blown away by his performance. A perfect rom com with equal focus on family and friendship bonds. Most importantly the romance is not crony or cringe. It’s soo cute and heartfelt.
