Private Lives

I will start with the positives: the acting is superb unsurprisingly from the cast, and the acting is why my score is actually quite generous based on the negatives which I will get onto. The chemistry between the two leads is incredible however their romance storyline is only a subplot and this is not a romance drama. Not as I mind this I have watched and enjoyed many good non-romance kdramas. But this is not one of them and is one of the few kdramas I have actually given up on part way through- I got to episode 13 and decided I couldn't watch anymore. In other kdramas that have dragged a bit plot wise at this point in the series I would probably still get through the last few episodes so I could have closure on the story but by ep 13 of this series I had already been struggling through for several episodes. The first couple of episodes showed real promise but the plot soon became a very confusing mess. I felt very lost watching and it quickly became unenjoyable as I was spending too much time trying to work out what was even going on. With the premise of the story and the cast this drama could have been really good but it really missed the mark for me.

On point, good acting skills indeed and good looking actors especially jooeun despite of having many characters she portrayed she still manage to give the same vibe. Very good and t'was lit

I love Korean cinema and some TV shows. Their directing, acting, production is usually top notch. So I started to watch this show hoping to discover another masterpiece. Alas, I stopped watching it after half an hour, because it was plainly boring and acting was pretty bad. It really looked like a soap opera than a thriller. Then I discovered plenty of fake reviews (by people who wrote only one review). 'Nough said...

The show has quite an interesting and original plot. The acting is also good, there is not really any character who seems to be bad. However, the timeline is rather confusing and hard to follow. If you are looking for something serious and want to actually think, then this might be the one. If you are looking for something easy to understand and just to have fun, this is not it. Overall, it feels like the production team is trying to bring movie-quality to a TV show by integrating some of the more complex techniques (such as mixed timelines), but they just do not work and not suitable for a TV show type of thing.

Started off strong but completely lost me along the way.

The two main leads became two I simply couldn't care less about. I became more interested in Hanso, Sophia and Sophia's love interest (went blank on his name).
