I must say, though, I do appreciate the idea that Se Ri and Jung Hyuk essentially save each other. First of all, you’re pretty.” … “You look good with your hair loose or tied up. Secondly, even though I felt Show was very heavy-handed with the Big Fate between our OTP (more thoughts on that later), I have to credit Show with the fact that I can believe how Se Ri and Jung Hyuk would fall for each other. “If you give up on waiting, the pain of loss will kill you. The lead actors, Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin are highly expected to reprise their roles in Season 2. The village ahjummas walking in on a shirtless, glistening Seung Joon is quite hilarious. Which begs the question, why did I feel the need to watch this show twice? The boys respect that Jung Hyuk is their Captain, and they take his orders seriously. Jung Hyuk and Se Ri have admitted to their feelings for each other, but have basically agreed not to act on their feelings, well, too much, anyway. Bethonie Butler. Click here to follow Cookie on her adventures! Something in the rain was a show that gave me whiplash, and to the end, I really disliked the female lead, so the fact that I could love her in CLOY shows that she is a great actress to get such emotions, haha! These two are developing a bad habit of continually telling each other that they’re ok, and everything’s fine, when it’s the opposite of the truth. Like I mentioned earlier in this review, the development of the OTP loveline was robust, organic and all-around well done, so much so that an extra indication that these two people belonged together because of a Gigantic, Far-Reaching Destiny, just felt like Show was taking the idea that These Two People Belongg Togetherr, and hitting us repeatedly in the head with it. He’s so adorably shy, dorky and earnest, and she’s so lovely, understanding and gentle. Jung Hyuk’s immediate concern when he hears that Se Ri got separated from the ahjummas at the market, and his creative thinking, in getting a candle, and his thoughtfulness, in making it a scented candle like what she’d asked for, is just all kinds of melty. TAGS: CLOY, Crash Landing on You, Hyun Bin, Son Ye-jin. “I think government officials should STOP with the pop culture references,” said Twitter user @joefranc. You were so cool.” … “You’re coy, haughty, and unfriendly, but I just can’t hate you. When she finds him, she can barely meet his eyes, and tells him to get in the car. I am sure it takes you a long time. , Whatever our individual opinions on CLOY may be, can we unanimously agree that Captain Ri has ruined us single women and skyrocketed our expectations from men?! You are an amazing woman.”. The only rewatches I do for a review would be for older dramas like Goong and Coffee Prince, where I rewatch the drama in question (again, just once), in order to craft the review. How crushing. It’s just not what PD-nim &/or writer-nim called for. Yes, it can be argued that this is the humanitarian thing to do; that a humane person wouldn’t leave an injured person to die; that this is not necessarily love. It felt like Show was taking me on a rollercoaster of emotions. It’s completely hilarious, while being oddly wholesome. When the messages run out, Jung Hyuk’s last message suggests that they meet where the edelweiss blooms, which is how Se Ri ends up orchestrating yearly performances in Switzerland, by music proteges supported by the company, in the hope of meeting Jung Hyuk there. It’s also bittersweet that Se Ri and Jung Hyuk can only see each other 2 weeks in a year, despite even getting a house together in Switzerland. I found it all very intriguing and fascinating, and thoroughly absorbing. She knows the aunties will come across the products one-day in the black-market. This is a bit much, for me, coz it’s so random. E9. But for the record, here are the things that bugged me, or made me snicker, during my watch. What a letdown, after all the trouble he went to, to make it look accidental. Like how she is barking up the wrong tree, expecting sparks in an arranged marriage. Basically, I wanted to make sure that I was being fair to Show. Jung Hyuk got all petulant and grumpy, when Se Ri gave finger hearts to the other boys as well, which is the cutest thing. How does this add up? There is a distinct ‘click’ of the door opening, and it happens AFTER Seri has already been crying on the floor. Jung Hyuk is very smart and very shrewd. Click here to see all your streaming options! I love that through it all, Jung Hyuk and Se Ri actually have meaningful conversations that deepen their mutual understanding. To be honest, you even… look cute. It's also where I share other various fun tid-bits. In fact, I even resented Show to some degree, because these episodes weren’t just angsty, they were so longg. Most Saved. So, to have the chance to spend 2 weeks every single year, with the person whom you thought you’d had to say a forever goodbye to, feels like an annual precious second chance. Seoul: On January 28, South Korea’s Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the Korean Foundation for International Culture Exchange released their 2021 Overseas Hallyu (Korean Wave) Survey. He’s given his word to marry Dan (Seo Ji Hye), and that’s all that matters. Which is his actual age. A good benchmark, I think, is whether you enjoyed 2013’s You From Another Star (aka My Love From Another Star), also written by Park Ji Eun. Confronted with all that they’ve faced in the space of a single day, it feels believable, and quite right, that their feelings for each other would come flooding out. As unbelievable as I sometimes found Se Ri’s behavior, I somehow managed to believe that she was quite real. And then how endearing, when he keeps talking to Se Ri to find out what happened to Dae Gil at the end of Chuno. He literally comes across as a completely different person, and I’m suitably impressed. And, since Show clearly knows that it is likely to have North Korean viewers, this seemed rather insensitive, from my point of view. That moment, when Se Ri’s in the dark during the power outage, and she’s got a vase raised over her head to hit any potential intruder, and a single tear escapes her eye in the midst of her terror, as she sees that it’s Jung Hyuk, is really well done. But, for the record, because of the angst and danger hanging over our characters, I felt like I couldn’t truly enjoy the cute or sweet moments that Show served up to alleviate the angst. Third of all, not only does the stoic-bemused vibe of the North Korean soldier suit Hyun Bin well, he brings Jung Hyuk to life in detailed, three-dimensional glory. E8. First, I was glad to see Jung Hyuk and Se Ri reunited; Show is at its best when these two are together, and I also wanted Jung Hyuk to be put out of his fearful misery about Se Ri possibly being dead. It’s just, she’s alone and scared and cornered, and he swoops in to defend her and save her, in his stoic, no-nonsense, soldiery way. How familiar and relatable! E11.

That can feel a bit or a lot hard-going, depending on your appetite for angst. :’), I’m SO glad that you like my alternate ending, but you’re right, lots of people would’ve been up in arms, if that had been Show’s official ending! And then real life got in the way, and I fell behind in my watch. But otherwise, he gets firewood, blankets, corn and potatoes, so that she will be warm and not cold, fed and not hungry. According to Google Philippines, Crash Landing on You was the most-searched K-Drama in the country this year. Click here to understand the heart behind #FindMyTribe! When it was between driving to the hospital or to the airport, she chooses the hospital without hesitation, and when it was between donating blood or leaving for her flight, she chooses to donate her blood to Jung Hyuk. The brotherhood. The boys rushing in to hug Se Ri at the hospital, is so endearing. Cute. E7. In this way, I can also believe that their connection would grow deep, in a relatively short period of time. It’s a little shocking, really, to remember again, that she’s quite the badass on her home ground, and a force to be reckoned with. This made the story feel much more cohesive to me, on my second watch. Or at least hopes so. E8. Cue hijinks! Again, he’s a good man.
