Has anyone seen Last Cinderella (j-dorama) I just finished the first ep and I’m not sure about it. Is it good?

    I watched it all, and while it was not bad, at the end I was left with a bit of a “that’s it?” feeling. Sometimes ending a drama that way means it was awesome, sometimes that it was terrible. This show just was it’s own thing. I say that if episode 1 left you intrigued, try to continue to watch, but it isn’t a “must-see” and if you drop it, don’t worry about it.

      Thanks, man. I’m going to give it at least one more ep–maybe two more and if I’m not hooked by then its bye bye drama. I’m already grossed out by the yoga instructor. But I do want to know if the friendship can be salvaged. And why she has such a devil-may-care attitude towards breaking up a marriage.

      I started to watch just for the guy, but then the heroine was too loud and I didn’t feel like I empathized with her at all. I don’t know why lol. Maybe I will try to take a second look.

        To be honest, up to the very end I was unable to empathize with the female lead. I watched the entire show over a series of nights when insomnia was keeping me up and I didn’t care about what I watched as long as I wasn’t sitting silently staring at the wall. So, not a glowing recommendation, but still, I made it to the end without watching something different?

          I empathize with her so far. I haven’t dated a lot. My last boyfriend was 15 years ago even though I’ve gone on a few dates in the ensuing time it hasn’t lead to anything. I’m a terrible flirt (see above) and I can never tell when a guy is in to me. I will be sitting somewhere and doing something else and will have an aha moment–that boy from my philosophy class was totally hitting on me! He liked me! Awww! Thats so nice! (this actually happened to me. I was talking to a co-worker about a guy in my philosophy class and she was all, how long did y’all date? And I totally her we hadn’t. She seemed shocked. I shrugged and walked away. Later the next week I was shelving books or something and I had an aha moment. Philosophy guy totally liked me. Which in hindsight that is indeed how it looked. 22 year old me was blind and confused.) So, I’ll keep watching a little longer. I like dramas that I can see myself in. And those are few and far in-between. I think thats why I like Noona Romances so much. They tend to have a 30-something a) workaholic bitch or b) innocent lamb who has somehow avoided the whole dating thing and is real bad at it. I’m neither of those things but those are the characters I relate to the most.

            Lol you need to watch this movie called ‘tremble all you want’. The girl keeps daydreaming about this boy she used to like in school, and that’s like for 10 years.
            But I totally like your reason for loving noona romances. There is this saying that goes like girls are more mature than boys, but I think that’s generalizing much and I think girls are as much clueless as boys. So like you said, sometimes 30 years old noonas are dumber than a 20 something guy. It really happens.

          Lol I guess we have something in common, cause sometimes I have this tendency to finish a drama even I don’t find it captivating enough. Although our reason is different but I think the reason I wanted to still keep watching despite the unlikeable heroine was that there was a lot going on in the drama and I wanted to see if all that made any sense. I mean ‘if’ a 20-year-old guy can actually fall for a woman double his age.

    The yoga instructor friend banged a guy in the bathroom in ep 1 (that she didn’t know. She was going to the restroom as he was coming out and she pulled him in with her. Gross. Hopefully she’s having safe sex) and she ends the ep with a guy (who happens to be her good friends husband) and she’s saying to him, “Come on! Havent you had an affair before? Don’t you want to do something forbidden?” I hate cheaters more than just about anything. I’m not sure how I’m going to watch this drama with her having such a prominent role. The next day she’s telling her friends about her new dude and she’s just laughing her head off, “Oh, he’s never even had an affair before! So cute!” Like—she’s happy to introduce him to adultery.

      The yoga-instructor friend is at the married friends (I have got to learn these peoples names) house consoling her because her husband all but said that he didn’t want her anymore. If she feels even remotely bad for her friend what does she think the wives of all the married dudes that she bangs feel? Or does it not matter? Because in the very next breath she’s bragging about her hot her relationship is with the married guy. She is despicable. The husband is despicable! They deserve each other and may they both never have an orgasm again!

    The poster pissed me off, [ I am talking about the one where the heroine is shaving[?]. I don’t know, was totally off-putting for me. 😅😅 But eh, the male lead is handsome haha.
