Don't Dare to Dream

I am not a fan of love triangles or jealous, petty guys fighting over a woman. That being said, I enjoyed this show SO much. The title "Jealousy Incarnate" is absolutely accurate, this is a show that is centered on a love triangle between two best friends and an ordinary-yet-extraordinary woman. This show was somewhat of a train-wreck, but also really well done? Despite have 24 episodes, the pacing is good and I was never bored. While I disliked just how extreme the love triangle was, I was super entertained. Probably the only thing that was a major con for me was the side characters of the sister-in-laws and the niece and her guy friends. I would have cut almost all their scenes, and in fact by about episode 8 I was skipping all their parts all together. While each of the characters encountered "jealousy" in some way (very in keeping with the theme) I could have done without some of it especially from the side characters, as most of the show ended up being fighting.

Despite all that, I was hooked up to the last episode. The way the show dealt with some really serious issues like health, disease, prejudice, jealousy, and love was really well done. And while the constant jealousy could be seen as immaturity, I actually though the relationships were on the more mature side. I liked the FL so much, much more so than her role in It's Okay That's Love (which is the only other thing I have seen her in so far). This was also my first watch with Jo Jung-Suk, and I can see why he is so popular. The acting from all the leads was very natural and the chemistry between the leads was sizzling.

Overall was this a great show? I'm not sure, but I can absolutely say that it is massively entertaining!

The K-drama 'Don't dare to dream' or some known it as 'Jealousy Incarnate'. It is one of my most favourite all time K-drama. Like if I have nothing to watch anymore this drama will pop in my head suddenly. It is the definition of simple but special.

Story of love triangles of two best friends and a woman (sounds too boring). At first time seeing the title and the plot, I need to be honest that I was not interested in the drama at all because I think it will be the same plot and end up the same. After I watched this movie, it still be like that hahahah. Even so, I got something more special that is all character has the normal relationship as the normal person could have instead of the unrealistic love or flashy or striking one. Hardly find any characters in this drama who is perfect without hurting. Every each characters has their own problem ready to be solved. Additionally, both lead male and female work at television station as a reporter and weather forecaster respectively. There are more stories about their job which is very interesting.

It is undeniable that all actors/actresses here are all professional. Everyone is well-acted. Gong Hyo-Jin and Jo Jung-Suk, I have nothing to talk about both of them more than they are legend. There is one second lead actor Go Kyung-Pyo, he is so good at acting, so charming and great looks too.

And the last thing I love about this drama is soundtrack. It is so beautiful. When I have a night mare or not in a good mood this drama's playlist will calm me down every time. Since the drama is rom-com then the soundtrack is light, easy listening. Listening their soundtrack makes me smile like not to worry because Pyo Na-Ri's life is worse than us hahah No! I mean even her life is not perfect, she still can be happy with them and if you have a good attitude, then every good one will come to you.

I think if you just look for its plot or just one component of this drama, you will only find it's boring, but when you compound all components together you will find it special more than any dramas you've ever seen.

It's Jung-suk Jo, oh no. This man is too hot for his own good.

This drama has 24 episodes instead of the regular 16/20. Depicts the ultimate love triangle, with difficulties and choices not everyone might find believable. Main leads have great chemistry and the passionate kisses would leave me with a pit in my stomach. The main leads character, Lee Hwa-shin, is incredibly charismatic, appealing and interesting and his struggles believable and relate-able. This drama will deliver plenty of angst, frustration and is a tearjerker at times.

Definitely one of my favorites. 8/10 from me.

I really love the cast, its funny every episodes and the story lines never makes me bored. A lot of episode that makes me laugh and also cried. 10/10.

An entertaining series with a love triangle alongside a side story of one of them dealing with breast cancer. Two male friends both fall in love with the same woman who is a weather reporter, and she has to chose to be with the kind, thoughtful rich successful businessman or the Rude, arrogant, indifferent newsreader she has had a crush on for three years. I think they could have condensed it or shown more of the supporting casts back stories as even though they were often more interesting then the main story they were given little air time.
