Also, just finished Marry Me, or Not?. I was so entertained by the first half, when the leads (such a good chemistry!) were actively lying to each other to make the other fall, while without noticing walking right into their own traps. So what happened later on? I’ll take a disapproving mom, but the whole last third of the drama was so damn draggy, unneccessary, and just plain stupid at times. Had to ff these last episodes unfortunately. Nevertheless, thanks to this one I got to know the pure delight that is Roy Chiu, and for that reason alone, I’ll give Marry Me, or Not? a pass. Barely.

P.S. Gotta say, I just love this “imma stab you the moment you look away” smile of his. And the genuine smile of his too. And when he’s being silly. And when he’s being swoony. And when…

    Oh that drama was so frustrating!
    They had these clear and obvious threads to pull out in the back half and it could have been just brilliant. But for some bizarre reason they just ignored all of them for a whole lot of pointless running around and a whole lot of stupid.

    I was wondering where you disappeared!! You finished!! 😉
    Ha ha. The last part was a drag I erased it from my memory. I selectively remembered only the good part 🙂 and that’s mostly swoony hot Roy!

    I am so glad you found Roy Chiu! 🥰😘😍

    Now you can go watch Dear Ex (movie) and see what a great actor he is.

        Yea. Second half is a cry fest. It’s easier to watch if you know the story 🙂
        Roy was brilliant though.
        You probably knew- he and Tiffany Hsu got married after this movie.

          no, i didn’t know that! i just remember reading that he used to be such a horrible boyfriend to some of his previous co-stars turned girlfriends… but i had hope he’d be a decent guy…

            From what I knew he was just a serial dater. His relationships didn’t last. Don’t think I heard about him being horrible. Again I usually don’t read these myself and it’s all hearsay. And I don’t care for their personal lives as long as doesn’t involve crime against women.
            Hope they found love in each other and live happily 🙂
            But return to dramaland Roy!

      Dear Ex, A Man Loves – got it 😉 I was also thinking about checking out Yong-Jiu Grocery Store since Derek Chang is in that one (and Roy of course).

        YJ is a beautiful story and Roy is really a side character. He appears in some later episodes. Derek is cute 🙂

        Magic Moment/Magic Hour too! Need to find more love for my piggy. (
