In Time With You - I am in love!

I am almost done with the first episode (I've forgotten how long twdrama eps are - this one is an hour-and-a-half) and I love love love! I don't remember the last time a twdrama worked this well for me - it must have been years ( Read more... )

Hehe, I was late to the ITWY party too, but it immediately jumped to the top of my fav twdrama list. Ariel's character got a little grating at times, but nothing unmanageable. And I agree about Chen Bolin not being that attractive, but he somehow manages to be super cute and likable. I smile whenever I see him in advertisements in Taiwan. :D Glad you're enjoying the drama!

Yeah, his looks are not my thing at all (I like my dudes more macho) but his character is so amazing, I don't care.

I can very much see myself in Ariel and that is very rare in a drama heroine who tend to be either angels or childish.

Hehe if you already love epsd 1.. I wonder what will you say about epsd 2 that so much better than epsd 1 ( ... )

With Bolin's character, it's more like - yes, he's not goodlooking, but I don't care because (to be corny) his heart is beautiful

Both he and Ariel feel so real to me here, like people I could know or pass by on the street..

I recently watched ITWY and it was puuuuure looooooooooooove for me. I fell head over heels for Bolin Chen--talk about CHARISMA!--and he and Ariel Lin are just PERFECTION ( ... )

I love Ariel's character - someone like that is not often a drama heroine but here, like in kdramas Coffee House and Worlds Within, a challenging, difficult but loveable and fascinating woman is allowed to be center stage. I love it. Sure, she has flaws - everyone does - but she feels real and complex and relatable.

Oh, trust me, I will be chatting about this nonstop.

It kinda flew under my radar when it aired, but I am happy because that means I can binge.

This is so amazing.

elanatothemax August 5 2012, 19:29:11 UTC

Wait, there's gonna be a movie?!??

nvr2muchcoffee August 5 2012, 21:53:33 UTC

That's what I'm sayin'!!!! Need more info stat!

ITWY is by and far the best TW drama I've watched at this point. I'm relatively new to TW dramas, been watching them for only a few months, but this one was the only one I'd call awesome.

This is such a solid drama and Ariel Lin and Bolin Chen have such great chemistry, as friends and lovers.
I love the kind of thoughtfulness that comes from You Qing's inner dialogue.

dangermousie August 5 2012, 19:03:32 UTC

Yes yes yes. This feels like peeking into someone's life.
