She chose not to seek revenge or become a second lead bitch because it’s not worth the hassle. Though, leaving Do Kyung at the altar without any explanation was inexcusable, she coolly accepted his rejection when she comes crawling back. One of the reasons why I like Hae Young 2 (second female lead) (let the dagger stares begin) is because she knew when to let go.
Even, if they didn’t drink, it felt like they need to act drunk to hide the embarrassment of watching them reduce their mature level, which is unfortunate because the show had lots of potential to explore these “real” emotions rather than create a subplot THAT WAS UNNECESSARY PROLONGED. There was not enough breathing room to express intense emotions these characters faced because they got bogged down with liquor. For a moment, I felt stuck with the characters as well which was stifling. They are so stuck in their past that they cannot move on, even if they tried sober. None of their drunk moments did I find funny or cute, rather pathetic that these adults couldn’t get their shit together. It was frustrating watching these characters drink themselves into stupor all because they had a bad experiences. Instead, I sighed and rolled my eyes, which hurts by the way ( who says drama-watching is not sacrificial?).Īnyways, what actually irritated me wasn’t the drinking itself, but the reason why. I felt like starting a drinking game as I watch a character down alcohol, but then, I would be drunk and have liver disease. With the amount of drinking that these characters exhibit, I am surprised that not one was hospitalized for liver disease caused by the excessive drinking. So, I am wearing my tomato-proof vest as I dive into this review. Again, this is my GENERAL observation that spans from the show. There’s no doubt that Eric doesn’t mesh well with his female co-stars, but in this drama, I’ve held my breath more than once and gasped hot air. A perfect cast for this drama and the chemistry with Eric is unfathomable. This is my Seo Hyun Jun’s first drama, but I love her to bits in this show. I sense he’s a slight-method actor ( get into character), or he’s so damn good at interpreting what writers wants to see in their characters. Eric Mun can do no wrong when it comes to giving it his ALL in his craft. I won’t go into details on this drama, but recaps and descriptions are a click away.īefore I go ahead, let me first lay the foundation that the actors are knocking their roles out the ballpark. The kicker is when a man, Do kyung shares these women ( no, you dirty minded people), and through circumstances, these their lives become intertwined. Two women share the same name, Oh Hae young and work for the same food company, one a team leader and the other an assistant.
Short summary: When that coincidence leads to more coincidental experience, that’s no coincidence, which is the case for this show. Genre: Melodrama, Romance, Fantasy, Comedy (in my order) Multiple titles for one drama: Oh Hae Young Again/Another Oh Hae young, Another Miss Oh Now, before, I go further into my “tomato being thrown at me” theory let’s talk briefly about “ Oh Hae Young Again.” The script brings the best out of the actors, but it also brings the worst of the characters.
However, I believe a good script is what makes the actor’s talent radiate more. Don’t get me wrong, I love to ogle at the next hunk being the lead or fancy the looks of the female lead. Inasmuch as that’s what draws me to viewing a drama as compared to the actors casted. In recent viewings, I’ve come to appreciate the technique of writing. Hi there! Welcome to another edition of Loving or Bashing, “Oh Hae Young Again” special.
