This has been compared a lot to Ashes of Love and I see why too. Have you watched AOL? Can you also compare the two?

Just started Moonlight.
It seems pretty good!

@porkypine90_261
I’m watching that drama somewhere else bc subbing is done way faster.

@lutra
I remember I recommended to @frustatedwriter [Maiden Holmes] bc I liked that one too.
I’m watching the High School drama bc it reminds me of [Bring it on, Ghost] which I loved too.
Some dramas I can make exceptions if I see they are ‘‘fun’’ to watch. In this case, although the theme is a bit complicated, I’ll stick to it 'till the end bc the ML/FL chemistry, and the action parts which i love to see in dramas (this one has good ones).

I was watching [Tomorrow with YOU] but practically know the whole thing now (with spoilers I saw around) so I feel no need to watch it now since I even know the ending.

I DO recommend https://www.viki.com/movies/37812c-night-of-the-undead
It’s funny, scary at times, and I love all the cast in it. Check it out.

@RakutenViki offers GREAT MOVIES no one ever mentions in here. They also have great DOCUMENTARIES and SHOWS which is what I also love to watch here. RVIKI is not only about dramas and offers the viewers so much more.

I have watched a few movies on Viki, but after so much drama watching (some very long dramas at that), I have found that it’s a little harder for me to connect with movies these days because there just isn’t as much time to develop characters, obviously. I’ve really started to appreciate the ability of a great storyteller to accomplish excellent character development (in synergy with excellent plot development) in the short time allowed in movie format. Watching a few bad to mediocre examples really shines a spotlight on this and how I’d never really put much thought into how difficult it must be to get it right.

I also follow a couple variety shows, but not here on Viki. One is no longer available, and the other, well, as a non-subscriber here, I’d rather watch it at the other place when possible because no commercials. Korean variety shows are so entertaining. Part of me wishes it was a phenomenon we had here in the U.S., but part of me realizes we’d never quite get it right the way Koreans do.

I’m watching Mouse with my mom and River where the moon rises alone. I start watching the last one because of Na In Woo. I just finished Mr queen a few days ago (a must see !) and I was so sad for him so…

I only watched three episodes and the story has just started. For now, I like it.

I can’t even remember since when I want to watch this drama and I don’t really know what is holding me back, maybe after watching so many C-dramas with bright costumes it is time for a Korean?
I am still unsure.
I will try, … Will I ever get past the first episode?

I forced myself to watch that because of baby Wookie and baby Yoo Seung Ho. It’s older, so there are obvious drawbacks in production quality, but I made it all the way through. Yoo Seung Ho plays his role soooo well. That on its own made it worth it to me, even if it’s somewhat painful along the way.

A MUST WATCH…to get to know VIKI behind the scenes.

Wow this is really nice. A must see. Watching right now. Finally found something to watch.

I was at ep 2 but after several times of reloading, the audio of the video sounds butchered, so I guess for now I will need to find something else.

Yes. I have seen Ashes of Love. Love and Redemption is similar in that they both have celestial beings and it is a love story but the plots are entirely different. Love and Redemption is about the war between the Celestial, mortal and demon worlds. The complex/compromised characters in those worlds are well drafted. The ML is a character of utmost moral integrity and true love, the FL is a compromised character who was deliberately impaired by the celestial king. But I don’t want to give the story away. :scream: :smile:

Which one was better, in your opinion? I always like asking people I know more than the comments on the MDL page :sweat_smile:

I just finished Tomorrow With You and I feel so happy, happy HAPPPYYYYY like I’m on top of the world!! I’m so thankful that I have TODAY to live, laugh and love allll I want! :smile::smile:

What a wonderful drama! It has to be one of the most underrated shows EVER. I loved it with all of my little heart :smiling_face_with_three_hearts::smiling_face_with_three_hearts: I kept waiting for something to happen that would warrant the low ratings… but nothing did! Yes, there are plot holes, but there are so many dramas out there with worse plot holes and still ended up having good ratings!! Like I said before, you need to watch it with your heart and not your head to get the most out of it.

So well-acted, so wonderfully romantic, funny, heartwarming and thoughtful, this is perrrrrfect to snuggle up with on a rainy day! Leave the plot… the chemistry was soooo REAL! I’m gonna be re-watching this a hundred times over because of how beautiful and hilarious their romance is. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts::smiling_face_with_three_hearts: The dialogues are so witty, hilarious and natural… really a different kind of drama!

Well, I liked both of them, but I think I like Love and Redemption better. :grin:

I really don’t pay much attention to ratings. It all depends on what’s playing on other networks at the same time and I don’t necessarily like what is popular. LIke that ‘World of the Married’ show that killed the ratings for other shows, It does not appeal to me. I am not into backstabbing relationships and adultery type soap operas.

I will watch Tomorrow with You soon. :grinning:

@choitrio, 고맙습니다! 10 pm. Korean time is 7 AM Mountain time! I’ve got it on my calendar. Plus, I’m still waiting to see who the channel manager will be so I can apply to be a segger for that show. :smile:
