Last night, after waiting for what felt like forever for new Brahms episodes, I decided that the reasonable thing to do (instead of watching said new episode) would be to binge clips of Tempted on YT because Woo Do Hwan is pretty.

This actually looks like a decent drama if you only watch the cute scenes. I was almost tempted (heh) to watch the thing and had to go read reviews to talk myself out of it 😆.

Ok, now I’m going to go watch Brahms. For real.

    IDK, I found the show super cliche and I thought it was a huge let down to KMJ! I also thought Joy was a complete mismatch in this.

      From what I’ve read, it sounds like a big soapy mess. But watching clips of WDH and Joy without context was enjoyable enough. I actively avoided clips of KMJ because his character does not seem likable.

        His character is okay. I think he did the best he could do with it. His chemistry with Moon Ga-young is really great, for whatever that’s worth.

        Steer clear of the whole mess.

    Everything and everyone was fine in the show with the exception of Joy, and the characters of Kim Min Jae x Moon Ga Young deserve their own show– they were sooooo underutilized

    *Ops, had a tag accident that made me delete previous comment

    YT videos probably condensed all the good stuff in this drama. It starts with a bunch of annoying chaebol characters making up lies – it takes a while for the viewer to warm up to them and realize that the true idiots are the adults around them. And then uri not-so-bad chaebols are hit over the head with makjang twists of fate OVER and OVER again, all the way to the bland end of the ordeal… By the last episode, it felt like the whole cast – and it is a really good cast! – was just going through the motions and secretly wondering how much longer would they need to keep squeezing tears out.

    Can’t really justify why I watched the whole thing, it’s the power of WDH

      Hahaha yeah I think I’ll save myself from that experience and just keep watching WDH being pretty in my clips without context.

      (by pretty I mean stunningly gorgeous handsome man)

      For me, KMJ was real star in this show tbh. I thought he did an amazing job, especially with the shitty character he was given. However, WDH and MGY did pretty swell too.

    Trust me, Tempted is terrible, horrible, not good at all (except that three of the young actors are irresistible but this was a bad use of their talent).
