Love to Hate You (2023)

amazing drama

Really really loved this one. All major characters are likable, which is a big thing for me.
It's also has a very good pace in the story, it does not feel like nothing his happening, but neither are there to many things at once happening. There is a really good balance. The story itself is also pretty good. Not a big fan of the 'not-like-other-girls' kinda thing that is going on, but it's not too much of a hazard. Both main characters have bad opinions on the opposite sex and they both change the other within their meetinsg and relantionship.
Most definentely worth a watch.

Maratonei veyr amo

Uma boa história de 10 episódios pra quem está entendiado ou não tem o que assistir. Love to hate you tem elementos muito bons mas defeitos visíveis que podem ser mais aparentes a alguns espectadores, como por exemplo o desempenho insatisfatório do casal secundário em criar uma química e tornar possível torcer pelo sucesso do relacionamento, apesar de que nos últimos 10 minutos da série o roteiro nos entrega um final plausível para os dois. A mesma situação acontece com os principais, o romance deles é um sucesso, depois é um fracasso e nos faz querer sumir da face da terra, mas tudo se conclui “aos 45 min do segundo tempo”. É, sem duvida, uma boa trama e que conquista pelo humor - não muito presente mas significativo - e uma história bem escrita sem episódios chatos, boa para maratonar em um dia e, portanto, um título válido e agradável.

Fun little enemies-to-lovers

This is how you do enemies-to-lovers properly and in an entertaining way. I enjoyed this drama a lot, it was fun and entertaining, swoonworthy and I really liked our main couple. They were so chaotic and fun to watch and their chemistry was GREAT. The second couple was a bit confusing and to be honest.... I truly think they broke up after the last episode, no way they lasted because the way they acted in the show?? no. I wouldn't want to put up with all that. Anyway, the music and story were really cool and fun, and I do see myself rewatching this for the main couple; their love felt passionate and sincere! <3

When watching K-drama I just have 2 demands-
Firstly the drama needs to have a story female lead
Secondly the acting and humor quotient.
And this drama stands out in both of them. Nothing is more exciting than to watch a drama with a female lead protecting the male lead. Macho female is the need of the hour and so glad the director understand that.
The story stands perfectly amusing without dragging it much with just 10 episodes. The chemistry is okish the romance is their but not the descendent of the sun kind. It was a decent watch.
Some characters of the drama were left midway- The niece her back story was needed.
Though I am glad they didn't marry at the end that would have made the whole plot flop.
You should watch this if you liked strong girl Do-Bong So.

Love to Hate You takes romantic comedy to a new level in this 2023 South Korean television series.

While there is no shortage of heroic male leads in our favorite dramas, Love to Hate You gives the audience a refresher with Yeo Mi-ran, a young lawyer who hates losing to men. Her strong disposition and comical relationship with A-list actor, Nam Kang-ho, makes for an entertaining series viewers will be sure to enjoy.

This drama is slightly shorter with only 10 episodes to carry the storyline, but for the number given, the show does an excellent job defining its characters and their stories. The pacing of the series felt good and it was easy to keep up with the events as they unfolded.

A good laugh with sweet mature romance

This drama was super fun. I loved every moment watching it and it was only 10 episodes so it didn't even take me long. To be fair I was watching it whenever I had a free chance lol. The first episode hooked me in with mi ran being a girl boss. It was interesting to see both mi ran and kang ho change throughout the series and I loved seeing them fall in love. The show got funnier as it went on and the ending was so cute. There were i guess plot twists at the very end which lowkey had me stressed. I also love how we got a fake dating, enemies to lovers, and one-bed trope, my favs. It was a very mature romance and I love how they cleared up any misunderstandings. I also loved not having so much stress over second leads. Overall an amazing drama, so funny and so cute.

A true melodrama after a long time!

After looking my pending list and seeing this drama in that list, made me realize I had put it away for an long considering the hype when it came out so I gave it a watch right away without a second thought.
The cast was new to me except for Go Wonhee whom I love. The story is female centric yet a lovable ML, his friend, the law firm people and the celebrities that cameo-d. Although the story progresses a bit late for the leads yet the wait time is justified for them as well as the 2nd leads plus the story is entertaining for we get to see a new side of the FL. Mind you, she is not an usual kdrama romcom character. So the story is engrossing. Considering it a Melo, some parts are cliche, part of the story you feel you know this plot coming already, but that can be ignored as the acting and the chemistry is top-notch. I would definitely recommend it.

Enjoyed it!

I really enjoyed it! So much that I kept thinking about it yesterday all night long, which is kind of really impressive for me! But then again it isn’t a 10 stars for me, even though I enjoyed it so much. Because there were some scenes which were really cringey, but I kind of think I’m sometimes a sucker for that, when I really vibe with the characters so yeah...
I also figured out for myself that I really like the fake dating trope!!! And overall I think they had a pretty good chemistry! That's why I would consider that as a comfort drama for me, because I think I could rewatch this so often and I would still like it!

A realistic romance that reflects modern real life values.

I ended up really enjoying this, which surprised me because the synopsis and trailer made it look like it would be pretty cringey. I also hadn't really seen many good reviews. But I ended up enjoying every episode and definitely tearing up unexpectedly a few times.
This is a real romance, with a spotlight on the gendered double standards in dating.
Although the characters and setting aren't "everyday", the romance is definitely more realistic than most, and the show really throws aside the facade of "no s*x before marriage" that a lot of Korean romances put up.
Instead of hours and hours of tension waiting for the romantic leads to finally kiss, the tension and drama comes from external forces.

I'm not sure what it was, but something about the male romantic lead suddenly felt off in the later episodes and that feeling never quite went away. Perhaps it was that his character development stalled at one point and they never continued improving him?

a more mature rom com

this drama is genuinely very very good. the charaters were perfectly written. the story is genuinely very realistic.

The female lead is a badass, upfront and shameless character who won't let herself get walked over. she despises misogyny and has only truly been in relationships where men had more conservative and traditional views. her views were more open and so she would go back and forth.

the male lead, he is a man whose whole thought process towards love and women were shaped because of previous manipulation he had undergone. But, as the story progresses, he opens up and genuinely begins to like and love the female lead for who she genuinely is.

the show is sort of like a battle of the sexes type show with both leads being strong and upfront characters who genuinely won't let anyone walk over them. But it is executed I'd say pretty perfectly.

If you are thinking about starting this, do it. You genuinely won't regret it.

Rom-Com to start your 2023

Feb 14, 2023

Waw, a show I binged during Valentine’s Day. It was good, sweet, and concise. Love to Hate You is definitely a show I will rewatch to replenish my dopamine. It's just to cute, fluffy, and also really hot. I guess since the casts are aged up more, I love the dynamics that they have. Especially between our leads, I feel like they are very healthy in terms of their relationships. Sure there are some misunderstandings here and there. But it is not to great extent where it makes me despise the show.

Overall, I like how the 10 episode format. Because of this there are stupid plot being thrown in the middle to make up for the running time.

I'll miss the cast so much and thank you binge studios for bringing this show into light. LOVED BINGING IT!!

yeah you should definitely watch it

I saw a clip of this drama on TikTok and decided to give it a chance since it was complete.
And I kid you not I binged watch the entire thing in a single sitting.
it was good, very good for a rom-com.
I had a lot of issues with the fl at the beginning because of her character and how she'd just assume the worst and try to justify it but that means she did a good job portraying her character...
The ml, well the man had me cackling half the time with how he would shut down those girlies with delusions of grandeur....don't get me started on how he put the ex in place...loved it!!!!
Is this drama for everyone ...probably not since some of ya'll have a stick up somewhere, and believe only what you like should be...weak fl...macho ml... lots of chasing and games before sealing the deal....as for me...I loved the whole new perspective...it was a drama I didn't know I needed.

Do I have a thing for long-haired men now???....yes...yes, I do...who doesn't????

Also, this should serve as a lesson to all the 'fans' who think they can dictate their favs lives...as stupid as they looked acting it...you did too...get a life!...or a partner...though that might be a tad bit difficult....fighting!!!
