Uncontrollably Fond (2016)

It's Excellent

I haven't watched that much drama because I only recently got into drama so feel free to disagree with me but for me, uncontrollably fond is an excellent series. What I first thought of the romantic development between the two characters is that it's not enough and there's no real connection between them and I also disliked that jun young was mean to eul rather than building a relationship but it hit me. Uncontrollably fond depicts lost time, where in you can't get back the time you lost. Even though it was obvious that jun young was eventually going to die what made me cry the most is his denial and the fact that he wants to make more of his life and make it up to the people around him and that when things are about to just get good it disappears. Rage, hatred, revenge, despair, hopelessness, regrets, misunderstandings, but eventually care, happiness, love, hope, justice, and peace. These are what made uncontrollably fond excellent for me the fact that the lack of romantic development between the protagonist is what backs up the idea of lost time, something you won't ever get back. But I was satisfied with the ending jun young found true happiness and at ep 19 we get to see what jun young and eul could've been, the scene might be cliché but for me it's still wholesome. Jun young died with true happiness and peacefully and everyone around him, and everyone he loves is doing alright. It felt like everything was going to be okay. And I gotta commend the acting it was very good especially when jun young is crying I can see his lips shaking and all the characters showed sincerity it made it feel natural and real. And music is also good overall 9.5/10 would watch again.

must watch

wow wow wow!
Although it could have been 16 episodes, I didn't regret watching 1 minute of this drama. this is definitely 1 of my favs.
The only thing i didn't like was the screaming or loud voices. I still give it 10/10
I saw the ML in the Heirs and was impressed and did look for other dramas to watch with him, this is second one and have no regrets.
The story is slightly different from the usual terminal illness dramas and the love story is also different, which is what I liked, as most dramas have these immature girlish FLs, that's usually annoying.
I will watch this again and again and would recommend anyone who wants to watch it to do so.

This drama was a bit hard for me to rate. The opening was great and drew my attention. Around the mid way point the story takes a hard turn in a direction I did not enjoy. In fact a few instances I had thoughts of dropping the show. I am glad I didn't though because after getting over that hump the show picks back up again. The ending was probably one of the most emotionally charged endings I have ever seen.


Over all I would have rated this drama a 6 (3 stars), but the ending was so good that I am bumping it up to an 8 (4 stars).

The scene in the last episode between Shin Joon-Young played by Kim Woo-bin and Shin Young-Ok played by Jin Kyung was by far the best acted and emotional scene I have ever felt and it is thanks to that acting that the rating is being pushed up so high. While watching it I forgot for a moment I was watching a drama and felt like I was really sitting in the room with them. Even now a full day after watching that scene, I still have a pang in my heart thinking about it.

Great

This drama is something else, makes you view life in a whole different dimension, what to do and what not to do when you have life. Also made me see that it’s not only in Africa that corruption and Bribery have tainted.

This drama speaks volumes, it says a lot and if you listen well, you’ll hear, FORGET ABOUT THE SAD SCENES, it’s send a message. It’s full of meaning, talks about time , love, forgiveness, second chances, truth, lies, motherhood, Fatherhood, friendship and even enemies.

Teaches how to live life to the fullest and how to use time for fulfilling things.

It showed how people can change and how some people too, can’t change .


I LOVE IT 🥰 🤝👏

Undeniably Good

This is a show that I had seen recommended on my Netflix list frequently so decided to finally give it a go. With Suzy in the show, I felt even if I didn't entirely enjoy it, she would always be a positive - and so she proved. Luckily, the show itself was more than good. This is an emotionally heavy show with an ending that you technically knew was coming but were still flattened by.

The flashbacks are integral to this story and lay the scene for what the show is about. The events that led to the lead characters separating before finding their way back into each other's lives are something typical of a kdrama story in demonstrating how lead characters are sometimes connected prior to meeting on the show. There is a sense of loss and foreboding separation that accompanies the lead characters as they try to rebuild a damaged relationship while the lead male reckons with his guilt for his part in the events that cleaved them apart.

The story is a motif for what we do and suffer because of family. Each character's suffering is tied to what they experience due to their loved ones. Suzy's character is beautifully realistic in her pragmatism because all she wants now in life is the very best for her brother. We have to talk about Kim Woo-Bin's acting. He was the heart, soul, rage, pain and joy of this show. From the moment it became clear what was going on with him, and his part in Suzy's childhood, there was just this yearning to see him make peace with himself. His relationship with those closest to him shaped the sense of pain that drove the show and constantly brought you to sympathy for him even when he was doing his best to show he didn't deserve it.

Some of the other characters in the show were not well-written enough to stand out as support characters. The mother of Kim Woo-Bin's acting was both incredible and frustrating, and your viewpoint of characters like her and others might change with each rewatch. There was also one problem with the flashbacks in using the same actors for them which I won't spoil for anyone, but it made some of present-day scenes implausible.

The show's final episode and final scenes were very quiet and that worked better than a spectacular, grandstand finish. Sometimes, what love relationships deserve aren't these massive gestures and fireworks but the beautiful quietness and simplicity done well. The show ended in a way that will leave you close to tears, and some might object to how it was written, but I think it worked for the best.

Overall, it's a great show!

The series was good but I was not prepared. It has some intense moments, some cute moments and most certainly some “my eyes are leaking moments.” I like the FL personality. She was determined and didn’t let pride stop her. Let’s not forget she was smart and capable. Our ML was funny and cute and absolutely made me grab the tissues. The only thing I don’t like about the series is the title. I thought I was getting a cute romance drama but this is not light and fluffy. It’s sweet, yet heartbreaking.

If your loooking for a light hearted romance keep moving. If your looking for drama, with tons of feels, you may like this.

Det viktigaste:
Historien kom fram på eit bra tempo, det er ikkje noko stort mysterie, men det er likavell spennande for du veit ikkje heilt kva som vil skje framover. Dette har veldig mykje å gjere med dei fantastiske karakterane, som skuespillerane våre har.
Eg likte dinna serien veldig mykje på grunn av historia, og korleis vi opplevar å leve med karakterane ettersom dei prøvar å rette opp livane sine, og kvarandres til det ikkje er meir tid igjen, og tårene faller.
Det einaste eg ikkje likte så altfor mykje med denne serien må ha våre dei augeblikka, skuespillarane ikkje kom fram med karkterane sine like naturleg som på sitt beste.

Personally, i LURVE the drama and i have not RAGRATS!

People who loves melodrama should really watch this even though there are certain parts that makes you feel like stopping. Do continue and endure because in my opinion, I think being able to persevere till the end of this show was worth the irritating feelings that you feel when things gets too draggy.

Story has the typical over melodramatic situations like someone dies, terminal diseases, whichever you can think of. But it is still quite an unpredictable storyline. Most supporting roles are kind of annoying especially Tae Jin and that killer because they are so fickle minded at what they want to do etc etc. Do not pity the father/mother. DO NOT!

Never let what happened to the previous generations(parents) affect your life because your life is your life.
Their failure/wrongdoings aren's exactly your fault.

I would say this drama shows how each one of us might make certain mistakes that causes lots of shit. So i don't think certain scenes are 'too much' because in real life it does happen! *inserts raising both hands emoji*


Kim Woo Bin's acting were great! The scenes where he broke down were just so sad and it breaks your heart somehow, somewhere. Poor boy.
Suzy is better than her previous roles, never really find her irritating as compared to some people. I don't know why but I think all artists are fine as long as they are not too BLANK as a main role?


Music wasn't really an main point to me, in fact! I don't really remember any of their OST now that you ask me because I finished this quite some time ago.
But there are still musics that makes you tears together with the cast so I guess it's not too bad?


I did rewatched a few scenes but maybe not the whole show? Probably the ending few episodes, you will know why..... ;)

Pendapat Awam!!
Oke mulai

Story:
drama ini menggambarkan seorang pria yang menderita penyakit namun ingin menahan rasa sakitnya sendirian. Ceritanya dikemas dengan baik dan membuat saya kesal dengan sikap male leadnya

Karakter:
ML: dia digambarkan sebagai orang yang sangat egois. Dari awal penggambaran ini sudah jelas terlihat dari dia. Dia tidak mau menceritakan tentang penderitaan yang dialami kepada orang lain. Dan membuat deritanya ini menjadikan sikap dia begitu kejam kepada orang sekitarnya dan membuat orang lain juga ikut menderita. Namun akhirnya saya juga menyadari kalo yang dia lakukan bisa dimengerti jika kita berada diposisinya.

Musik:
Ost cukup menempel dikepala dan membuat scene menjadi lebih hidup.

Ending:
Ending sangat baik!!. Penulis tidak memaksakan cerita yang baik untuk semua orang. Jadi endingnya sangat bisa diterima dengan logika
