@anon: omg such a long reply. tbh i only lasted like 7-8 episodes? so i don't know the general gist of what went down. but yes,,, i really enjoyed jeongnyeon i'm sorry i think it's been too long since i've watched a kdrama so it really went over my head regarding the cliche plot thing... i just in general enjoy kim taeri a lot and it really cemented the episode for me in the last 20-ish? mins of ep 1. i haven't heard the other actresses you mentioned so idk tho :o

this is funny bc some people who watched yamlf were complaining why aren't they getting together yet!!! from ep 10😠they got together quite late though, around ep 22-23 i think? also, it's 30, not 32 eps. it's still a great and well-written drama regardless esp for its trope, probably one of the best romance cdrama i've watched i find the writing and characterisation are just chef's kiss. i think one just need the right mood to watch it properly.
or maybe as you said it's just not your type. difference in preference is real. bc i saw you praised the pilot eps of jeongnyeon the other day. ironically, that's the one drama where i think the plot is cliche and predictable lol. it's typical disney princess growth kind of story to me. yknow - that one unique main character with poor background but with gifted talent - her happen to be offspring of someone famously known for same gifted talent - wanting to do smth but being prohibited by family without telling the reason- later discovered by someone who was fascinated by the main character - then embarking on new, unfamiliar journey - going training process - facing hardship - endure the sabotage and envy of other people - typical rival story - ntm her having that clumsy/wild yet stubborn/determined personality. it can't get anymore cliche than this but i must say the best thing about jeongyeon is beautiful cinematography and emphasis on visuals on each scen. beautiful enough to gloss over the cliche story and made it appear much better than it was. i guess i can understand why some people like it, it's still quite good but i am not sold yet, might wait till it finish airing to decide whether i should continue. major thing is i can't be convinced by the supposedly voice by heaven. so i can't connect when people around her were like mesmerized by her singing. shin yeeun and esp kim yoon-hye (!!!) are the one with shockingly nice voice like i was literally stunned fr. if they're the one described to have that voice gifted by heaven, i'd be convinced more lol
