Serendipity's Embrace Episode 6 Reviews and Reactions
So, is this how mature people fall in love? Their date didn't go as expected. One had to switch dresses for her friend. One had to go because of work. No ugly petty fights. They just left with the thought of seeing each other again tomorrow.
At this point, this drama is giving me mixed feelings, I don't know whom I should resent. Joon Ho maybe, is the second lead here. But I'm feeling sad, only if he would've told her he's ill. If it wasn't for Hoo Young I would've shipped them.
This kind of friendship is so rare to see in a K-drama. At first, I was expecting Sang Pil to have a secret crush on either Hye Ji or Hong Joo since that's a normal thing. But turns out their relationship is pure.
With two more episodes to go next week, the pacing and development of their love story are annoyingly slow. It was cute when it started but now I'm just frustrated at how this dude can't just man up! He keeps saying the wrong things!
I'd like to believe the reason this scene feels so natural is because they're not acting at all. Jong Hyeop made an ad-lib and played with Soo Hyun's hair because he found it fascinatingly fluffy that day.
With Hoo Young's mom in the frame, #SerendipitysEmbrace suddenly turns from modern romance drama to 2000's romance drama. Just stay in the US if you are not gonna give your blessings. Your son is 29 years old. Let him live his life.
Why not use the sick card as an excuse for how poorly he treated the FL years ago? Sorry, but that ain't flying with me. The dad of her bestie was right. Whatever happened he should have had the decency to tell her properly or break it off with her.
I feel for Jun Ho to some extent, but he brought this on himself by not being honest. I'm glad someone finally told him to stop. We've seen this scenario before.
The way he stands up for Hong Ju truly warms my heart. After being left by her family so young, she was lucky enough to be loved and cherished. It's comforting to know that Hong Ju was never truly alone.
I admire how genuine and straightforward the dialogue is in #SerendipitysEmbrace. And, It's so appealing how steady Hu Yeong is as a character/man, especially for an anxious character/woman like Hong Ju.
