W-Two Worlds is a must-watch!
Main Post:
I decided to give W - 2 Worlds a random watch on Saturday night. It's currently Monday morning and I have no more episodes left, I am all cried out and it's all I can think about.
I had a feeling I was initially going to enjoy this drama because I really liked Extraordinary You and I knew the two shows had a very similar concept.
It was such a good show! The comedy in the first few episodes got me hooked and the female lead, Yeon Joo, was so relatable. Her facial expressions when she was dragged into the webtoon were hilarious, especially when she was trying to make sense of the whole situation.
My favourite scene was when Yeon Joo was desperately looking for a way out of the webtoon in episode 2 and resorted to at first slapping and then kissing Chul, poor man was so confused but sorta liked it and we all knew it 😂. I was also expecting this (it was a little obvious in the lead up to the slap and when that didn't work my thoughts went "omg she's gonna kiss him now ... there she goes!")
I think what would have made Yeon Joo's character a little better was if she had a little bit of Chul's sassiness.
Also, can we please talk about how attractive Chul's character is? Every time the man winked my heart was ready to just burst. He was so sassy and flirty that most times I couldn't even tell whether he was being serious or just messing with Yeon Joo.
The romance, I'll be honest, felt a bit unnatural to me. Not because they literally kissed in the second episode but because I couldn't tell whether Chul really liked Yeon Joo or not. I think this barrier between faking the kisses and I love you's and actually liking Chul (and him developing feelings for her) overlapped a little bit and I would personally would have preferred to see a smoother transition (although I am guessing Chul started liking Yeon Joo around episode 7 with the jail kiss scene).
Also, I really wish they didn't wait for like 15 episodes before Chul says I love you and I really wanted that to come out sooner in the drama - like before he told her to erase all his memories and make it all a dream. It did have an impact even then, but I have been anticipating it for so long that when he said it I felt like he didn't really mean it.
Also, the episodes after the dream where Chul and Yeon Joo are reunited once again are a little bumpy in terms of the couple's romance. I know it will take Chul some time to get used to Yeon Joo and get to know her once again but again I couldn't tell whether his actions (dates and kisses and stuff) were justified by his feeling towards her or because he wanted to remember what he felt when they were together.
The drama has quite a few plotholes too, especially in the last episode. I quite liked that Yeon Joo's father was a sacrifice that meant his daughter would lead a happy life. It was also the most logical part of ending the series. Her father was unhappy, despite the success he gained from the webtoon, he was a drunk who seemed to not have much going for him. His life was sad which is what personally I think made his sacrifice even sadder.
But I can't help and be curious about what happened to the other characters of the webtoon. Do Yoon and So Hee specifically. We knew Chul was no longer the webtoon's main character and my only guess on how he was able to come to the real world was because the author intended on that's how his story would end - after all the author was the God. But what happens to the webtoon's universe? Do they continue living as if nothing happened or do they cease to exist since there's no longer story to tell?
Also, I really wanted the drama to explore the whole how did this happen scenario. And why was it all controlled through one drawing tablet? Was it a magical tablet or was it just magic because it was the og tablet used to create the characters?
I'm really curious to see what everyone else thinks of the show. I know it's quite an old one but omg it's so good! Definitely, one I'll be coming back to some time soon for the feels and laughs.
Top Comment: Its one of my favorite K-dramas. After watching over 200 of them this is still in my Top 5. Some people don't like the plot twists or latter half of the drama but i love it in its entirety. Its one of those kdramas which has a fresh plot, apt actor, fantastic screenplay and good production value. I recommend it all the time to people who want to watch fantasy or thrilling rom-coms.
W: Two Worlds - worth watching?
Main Post:
I have read past thread and reviews on mydramalist for this show. A lot of people who watched kinda think the drama started well and then got lost in the middle. People praise the two leads chemistry and the refreshing plot.
I'm a big fan of thriller and looking that the premise and thriller tag of this drama, I'm thinking of giving it a go. After all, the ratings on mydramalist is high at 8.5. Also, the other thread that day, someone posted there's big twist in this drama so I like that as well.
My only concern is whether romance is a big part of the show. The last time I posted here asking about WYWS, majority said romance wasnt the focal point but it was a little bit too much romance for me instead of thriller. So that would be the benchmark. However, I did enjoy He is Psychometric despite its romance scene because the mystery kinda stood out more in that aspect.
So what you do guys think?
Top Comment: I enjoyed it alot so i would recommend it. Altho its been a while since i seen it.

Thoughts on W - Two Worlds?
Main Post:
Usually I find that dramas start out exciting and end up dragging on near the end as they run out of material, however I felt that W had the opposite effect. The first few episodes were a little slow, but once episode 7/8 came around I was completely hooked. It's definitely worth beating it out until the end.
Its riddled with plot holes and some parts are downright confusing, but I cant say I didnt have a wonderful time watching it! I'll be rewatching it with a few friends soon as well.
What do ya'll think about the turnout? I'd love to know your thoughts and opinions on the ending and general plotline.
Top Comment: I loved their chemistry more than anything else in that show. The storyline was interesting and unique at the time it came out, but I did find some parts confusing. They had a great idea on their hands that probably suffered from poor execution. I am still to this day baffled by that ending. Not in an unsatisfactory way, it had a way better ending than most shows nowadays, just in a what-just-happened-this-doesn't-make-any-sense kind of way. But I feel like that's usually the case with manhwa adaptations. They have the most interesting, out-of-this-world, never in a million years possible storylines which may work in comics, but in a TV series they need to seem somewhat realistic and have a somewhat plausible ending, and that's difficult to pull off. The soundtrack was glorious, though, especially In The Illusion.
W Two worlds apart - worth finishing?

I’ve watched 6 episodes and largely found the leads unlikeable
ML is just obnoxious
FL is completely loco. I feel like the lady is weirdly obsessed in getting it on with a cartoon character. She’s in jail but more concerned about hurting a cartoon’s feelings. Her dad is in the hospital and this lady is just interested in getting some.
I generally do like stronger FLs
Does it get better?
