Day 1: Female lead you will never forget (for better or worse)

I am no good with names, but Lee Sung-kyung’s performance in Call It Love really stands out this year. I feel like she was somehow relatable, a woman trying to find her way in the world with a lot of emotional baggage and wants to fix things, but going at it wrong way, like seeking revenge to the adjacent person to the one that actually hurt her. I’ve always enjoyed her performances, but I really think she brought a lot to this role.

    What a great pick!! She’s definitely one of my favorite FLs of the year, too. I really like your analysis of her character.

      Perfect description. It really felt like a “breakthrough” performance and she matched up beautifully with Kim Young-kwang who is no slouch in upping the feels.

        Yes, I really feel that the two of them together were amazing and gave me all the feels while watching.
