The Villain of Romance - Overall Review
Tumblr media
So I just completed this series last night and it’s more than about time I gave my full out review on it. I think a lot of people disliked this drama for many reasons, but as for me... Well, keep going to know more!
Plot
The story is focusing on two college students that are experiencing dating problems in their relationship together. It’s mostly going for clichés, but gradually they work through each of their differences and issus to make their relationship lasting.
Albeit very simple, the plot was okay, it showed different sides of what it is to be in a relationship and making it work. It was mostly satirical in my opinion and not meant to be taken seriously, as most of the traits shown were actually over exaggerated for comedy purpose. That kind of humour might work for some and might not for others. I found it entertaining. And through all that, they still carried a message and to me that was good.
Overall, it’s nothing super extraordinary, but it deserves a round 7/10.
Acting
Here, it’s kind of interesting, because I would say that the acting is actually rather poor. But it’s also kind of staged. It’s like, we did it on purpose. So if you’re looking for dashing acting skills, I would suggest to skip on that one. Nobody is taking themselves seriously, and that’s something I personally liked about this show.
However, purely based on the scale I’m usually using for rating acting, as non speaker of the language, this gets a little 5/10.
Aesthetics
The visuals and sounds of this drama was nice, it matched pretty well with the story and what was going on. Everything was lighthearted, which was nice. There’s nothing much more to say about it. They did well, but it wasn’t stunning either. It’s a 7/10.
Do I recommend this drama?
I would say I do recommend this drama to anyone who would like to watch something very lighthearted. There are some extracts that are a little darker and more seriously, but it’s mostly a satire. I’ve seen a lot of backlash on the comments saying that the relationship is toxic and everything. But that’s kind of the point? The two protagonists are working through the toxicity of their relationship to make it work and grow. I think that’s the interesting part, because it’s talking about very toxic traits that are often shown in dramas, but that it’s never actually addressed as a problem the main couple has to solve. I mean, I haven’t watched that many recent k-dramas lately, so maybe the curve changed on that matter, but still. For the longest times, these things were okay, even dreamy, and now that it’s put into a comical way, it isn’t? I don’t know. For me they just making a lot of fun of those situations while showing ways to grow out of it. It actually gives decent advice on dating, in my opinion, not that I’m a dating expert. Plus, the show’s name is the Villain of Romance, obviously there would be bound to have some bad things happen. Anyways. It’s funny, it’s light, it’s a short ride. I would say go for it if you don’t take everything seriously when there’s no need to. It overall gets a 7/10 for me. It’s not going to be drama of the year, but still. It’s a fun watch, so enjoy it!

Are the writers going to do us like that??
Jin I Soo and Lee Ganghyun go from bickering like kids to comforting each other at their lowest. Ganghyun goes from telling him to go home to texting him to come to the station because they got a new case. Ganghyun takes Jin I Soo to her comfort place so that he can clear his mind after learning the truth about his mother's death. I Soo saying "You trust your father, and I trust you" to Lee Ganghyun when she was on probation and desperately wanted to prove that her father was innocent and that he was framed. Ganghyun scolding him because he put himself in danger and I soo trying not to repeat that. And most importantly what about the fact when they almost drowned together while trying to arrest Bori?? What are you gon say about Jin I soo cupping her face and telling her to believe in herself when she told him that she couldn't swim ??? Carrying her over the water the entire time she was unconscious while he was struggling to breathe and stay over the water himself. Are the writers really going to do us like that?? T_T
Tumblr media
"LEE GANGHYUN WAKE UP"
P.S : Jin I Soo being jealous over Park Junyoung and Lee Ganghyun and then asking Junyoung if they shared any feelings or ever dated and then getting flustered on being asked if he liked Ganghyun was the cutest thing everrr.

Korean GLs I'd Watch...
Let's try to manifest a world where some of the biggest Korean actresses were cast in major full-length GL kdramas.
Tumblr media
COP + CRIMINAL
Esom (Because This Is My First Life) and Lee Da-hee (Search: WWW) play partners and besties, who both fall for their respective suspects for a crime spree against the patriarchy. (Think: Evening the pay gap at a major company; exposing scandals of sexist politicians; and chemically castrating sex offenders). Esom's love interest is Park Eun-bin (Extraordinary Attorney Woo), and Da-hee's love interest is Seo Yea-ji (It's Okay to Not Be Okay). It's a romantic crime thriller.
Tumblr media
FRIENDS to LOVERS
Seol In-ah (Business Proposal) plays a new-money rich girl who hires a former old-money rich girl, played by Yoo In-na (Touch Your Heart), to be her personal assistant out of pity, but pretends she doesn't know her backstory. And Yoo helps Seol navigate rich society. Their conflict is that Seol's family bankrupted Yoo's family, and is getting the life Yoo was supposed to have, including the fiancee, the job, and the house. It's a sweet romantic comedy.
Tumblr media
BOSS + EMPLOYEE
Kim Ji-won (Fight My Way) starts a job at a family law firm and works hard to get one of the partners, played by Son Ye-jin (Crash Landing on You), to be her mentor, but only because she wants her job. She starts off as a frenemie before Ye-Jin's hard edges rub off, and Ji-won develops a crush. Their obstacles are that Ye-Jin is married and in the closet, and Ji-won might be too ambitious to let go of her goals. It's a slow-burn romantic legal drama.
Tumblr media
COOL GIRL + DORK
Park Shin-hye (Heirs & Pinocchio) plays a cold fashion house designer who hires an unlikely candidate to be her muse, played by Moon Ga-young (True Beauty). And what starts off as a toxic relationship blooms into a supportive one. Park Bo-young (Strong Girl Bong-soon) plays her head of design, who befriends Ga-young's bestie-turned-manager, played by Kim Seul-gi (Oh My Ghostess). They're the softer side couple. It's a romantic workplace dramedy.
Tumblr media
FRIENDS to ENEMIES to LOVERS
Seo Hyun-jin (Why Her?) and Gong Hyo-jin (When the Camellia Blooms) were friends in college, but they had a falling out after a misunderstanding about a guy. They have a tense reunion as adults when Hyo-jin is setting up her nuptials at the wedding hall Hyun-jin manages. It's a slowburn romantic drama.
Tumblr media
ONE-SIDED OBSESSION
Shin Min-a (Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha) plays the wife of a very powerful and abusive man and Hwang Jung-eum (She Was Pretty) plays the maid who is secretly in love with her and helps her escape. They go to Jung-eum's hometown where everyone assumes she's bringing her girlfriend home for the first time, because she didn't have the heart to tell them she got dumped after running away to be with her. Min-a decides to pretend to be the woman to pay her back, and they fall in love. The conflict being when Jung-eum's ex, played by Park Min-young (What's Wrong with Secretary Kim), returns to get her back.
💜 Your move Kdrama world! 💜

WELCOME TO SAMDAL-RI
GENRES: Drama, Romance
SUMMARY: When life gets too tough, its important to have a place you can go where people believe in you for who you always were.
THIS SHOW HAS EVERYTHING: Convenience store hideouts, corporate abuse, haenyeos, amusement park failures, dog mascots, weather forecasting, old flames, flashy sports cars, loss and forgiveness, crooners, drunken kisses, and dolphins.
HOT TAKE: I'm always hesitant to watch these small town slice-of-life dramas since I know they're going to be slow and drawn out, but you know what? I've never regretted sitting through one yet. There's something just very soulfully soothing about casual strolls, nosy-yet-supportive neighbors, and honest dialogue and communication, and this show is no exception.
Nevermind best kdrama kissers: I want a list of best kdrama huggers, starting with the King, Ji Chang Wook.

The Villain of Romance - Episode 10 Final Episode
Tumblr media
This is it! It’s the final of this short series. I enjoyed myself so far and we left on a cliff hanger on last episode, I need to know if Heejae was hit by a car or something.
Very long replay of the last episode. Heejae got hit by the car, Yoojin managed to escape Jinwook. Nobody helped even though there were a lot of people around. She rushes to Heejae, who sits up only to faint again once he knows Yoojin’s alright and that he’s bleeding a lot from the head.
Yoojin decides to get revenge on Jinwook and she uses her jujitsu techniques to beat him up. Once she’s out of the police office, she meets with Heejae who’s not too hurt from being hit by a car and they are back dating. However, not long after, he gets drafted to the military. The narration says they stopped dating 6 months later... What does it mean then?
Seven years later, Hyeon and Yoon are married, they own an internet cafe. Yoojin works in a publication house. She has to go on a meeting with an author that seems to be very popular. Who’s ready to bet that it’s Kang Heejae who suddenly cancelled plans with Hyeon that same day? Me. Obviously it’s him. He wanted to see her again and uses that opportunity to get back together with her.
And the end! See you soon for my full recap about this series!

" I'm going to believe you. I want to believe it. To be honest, I still don't get it. You were my sister in your past life? That's just ridiculous. So if I find out later that you were lying, I'm never going to forgive you. Okay? "
