I'm gladly jumping into Lovestruck in the city... or is it a leap of faith?
Twelve episodes and Kim Ji Won. It has to be good.
I also (sort of) trust you, Wookie... Please be good. Your smile melts me... (Should I be using melt and wookie in the same sentence, is this a bad omen?).

This Tuesdays & Fridays format is going to confuse me, but I'm there.

I'll try Lovestruck in the City since it will be on Netflix. I like Kim Ji-won and maybe if I watch some Healer clips, I can remember why I used to like ji Chang-wook.

I'm excited for Lovestruck, maybe with Kim Ji Won and a shortened format, Wookie will come out with a win for the people. I will also watch inspector, but only for Kwon Nara.

12 episodes, 30 min each. Interesting. I will give it a try for Kim Ji Won. Sawwrrry, I fell off the Wookie board.
what’s this Tuesday and Friday schedule?!!

I know that "Lovestruck in the City" will be on Netflix but where do I find SECRET ROYAL INVESTIGATOR?

L was given this role as a punishment? ........ that's just too easy

I hope Lovestruck in the City does well since I want Kim Ji Won to have a ratings hit and I feel bad for Ji Chang Wook's string of terribly rated dramas. But I'm also not feeling in the mood to watch it.

I'm excited for Secret Royal Investigator since I love historical mysteries. It sounds like it will be a fun one and Lee Yi-kyung! Been rewatching some Welcome to Waikiki clips on youtube. I grew fond of L from his role in Miss Hammurabi. Sounds like plot-driven hijinks, so he may not have to do much heavy lifting.

Lovestruck in the City is giving me Dinner Mate vibes with the poster. Might give it a try if beanies seem it promising.

I like Lee Yi Kyung but maybe not enough to watch L again lol

I passed on MELTY and BACKSTREET but I will be there for all twelve episodes of LOVESTRUCK IN THE CITY. I am hoping the third time is the charm for Ji Chang-wook. I have good vibes for this project. LOVESTRUCK has a very nice cast. I remember Kim Min-seok’s riveting performance in DEFENDANT (2017) and recently enjoyed Ryu-Kyung-soo as ex-con Seung-kwon in ITAEWON CLASS. I am a ARTHDAL CHRONICLES survivor so I do remember Kim Ji-won’s portrayal of Tan-ya.

I feel sorry for JCW that he had to do such a terrific show like HEALER, after which obviously everything else falls flat. No one can possibly outdo HEALER. Not even Park Min Young. Not even Knitting Ahjumma Kim Mi Kyung. As much as I love both actresses, these are their most memorable roles I have seen so far.

Like some have pointed out already, I guess the standard for JCW should not be, 'will it be better than HEALER?', but instead, 'is this a non-creepster role?'. He desperately needs something, anything, to salvage the disastrous spiral his choice of roles have taken him down.

I won't be watching from the get go, though. I will rely on the judicious (hopefully unbiased - ignoring @eazal of course) beanies who are watching to give their review before attempting to go near this one.

I'm not sure about Kwon Nara in a sageuk, she's looking like a modern girl catapulted in Joseon for me. I love Lee Yi-kyung but I'm tired that he always casted for the same kind of role. He was so gooood in Children of Nobody as a serious cop.

I'm curious about Lovestruck in the City, I love both actors and the story looks nice. It's a short story, so no fillers!

I still want to watch Lovestruck for Kim Jiwon, but after JCW controversy, now everytime I see him I remember his cringey video when he smoked.

Secret Royal Investigator isn't one of my cup of my tea yet. I think that it looks like my indefinite punishments and going to hell right now to SRI characters only.

So, I go with Lovestruck in the City. (excitedly fun laughing at the series especially the cast)

I want to 'try' both. About L well I am loving his character in Angel's last mission that I am watching right now and absolutely enjoying the drama. Also I liked Kwon Nara in both Suspicious partner and Itaewon class. While I want to give JCW another chance but watching three dramas at once is already a lot at present for me.

In my not so short anymore drama watching period, I still haven't watched a Ji Chang-wook drama! :P I'm giving Secret Royal Investigator a shot, lets see!

Me after watching episode 1 of Lovestruck on Netflix:
Why is it only 30 mins??? Nooooooo

Wait lovestruck in the city is only half an hour every Tuesday and Friday of a total 12 episodes? Interesting format...

Finished watching Lovestruck in the City and I have to say it was, "alright." It'll take a few episodes to find its footing but with the 30 minute format things should move briskly. I'm a huge fan of leads and based on their previous works they both "should" be able to pull this off. As Mom always said, however, "Should is a word that doesn't exist. You can never say what a person should or shouldn't do."

That said, let's not blame actors for a poor story which will probably be the issue here, if there is one. Actors are severely limited by what they're given. Even an Oscar-level actor can't save a project if the script is 'Dumb and Dumber.'

Watched about 11 mins of Lovestruck and I am not feeling it. Maybe re-watch it on a different mood? Maybe I was still on Kairos high that is why I did not appreciate it. We shall see...
