Eye Love You

Maybe this could have worked - despite the silly premise - but the FL hams it up to such an extent that your attention is distracted constantly.

She reacts to every situation with jerky head movements and over pops her eyes at every opportunity. She acts like a two year old in the cleaning up leaves scene and gets angry when she is hungry to a nonsensical degree. When she is eating she grins idiotically.

She is a terrible actress.

The story - if one can call it that - deals with the fact that although she can read the minds of others she can't read that of the ML. After first meeting him as a delivery boy - coincidence is stretched to the limit when he becomes an intern at her company.

For his part the FL is a pleasant enough character and acts with restraint and believability with the silly situation. Of course there is a third wheel in the shape of her boss who also seems to like her and a fourth one in a co-worker who is attracted to the ML.

This is candyfloss entertainment with no substance and no plausibility - don't expect anything and you wont be disappointed.

Wow that last episode left me with a huge smile, so sweet and romantic :) Sad to see all the bad reviews for such a moving show. Y'all CLEARLY need to stay in your Kdrama lane and let those of us who can enjoy an expansive world of dramas live and enjoy things! The main female lead, Yuri, wasn't acting any more abnormal than what plenty of actresses do in a really soapy soap opera in virtually any country. I'm no expert in Japanese acting styles, but her character can be compared to an anime character especially if you've seen any Romance or Romantic Comedy anime, the female leads frequently are portrayed like how this actress is portraying her character. Tae Oh, the male lead, is probably gonna go down as one of my favorite bfs ever, please he was adorable I'm in love! I don't understand the criticism of him, his character was well rounded, had a beautiful background story related to his mom, and had so many sides of him that were great on top of being a doting sweetie. The only thing I will admit is that Yuri is the kind of character you fall in love with by the end of the series as oppose to right from jump. After seeing her unconditional love for her father, her passion for her work and the environment, her friendships, and her love story you can't help but fall for her. This is a heartwarming, beautiful, funny slice-of-life show with a bit of mystery that makes it much more exciting. It's UNIQUE and not following a formula, you will love it if you appreciate creativity and a bit of whimsy.

This was quite an enjoyable show. Cute story. Lots of charming and interesting characters. A mildly interesting back-story.

But then episode 4 comes along, and you can start to see it....that failing of every less than stellar writer out there: The typical "Let's make the entire plot revolve around miscommunications, misperceptions, or total lack of reason." But episode 4 ends kind of meh....maybe OK.

But the transition into episode 5, which makes zero sense considering episode 4, brings all the typical tropes to the forefront. The lead, who is quirky, cute, and unsure, rapidly becomes unlikeable and annoying in her behaviors. And the writers don't help any by making the motivations behind every scene she is in justify a completely different outcome, or at least a completely different response from her.

Her actions become completely random and unfathomable that you stop caring, simply because you know she is going to say, act, or do something stupid.

I know it is only 5 episodes in, but if this show continues to revolve around using these cheap overused tricks to generate any sort of conflict (where any sane person wouldn't have any) then this show isn't going to get any better. And note that I said "sane". Sure, she has an ability that others don't know she has. But it does NOT justify her actions, and hence it becomes clear she has a serious psychological issue as well. And her traumatic back story can't, or hasn't, justified it one bit.

Again, lazy writers using lazy inconceivable interpersonal responses simply to move the plot/conflict along is just painful to watch.

I get that this TV series was aired in primetime, when youngsters are still awake to watch, I also understand the conservatism of east Asia's society. But the FL is 30 years old by her own admission and the ML is 26. I don't expect nor wish for raunchy, vulgar scenes. However when the two leads join lips in what couldn't even be called a peck. When the FL acts like a preteen, it detracts from the story, and insults viewers' intelligence. This is a woman who is a CEO. The ML is a PhD candidate. Then too make matters worse the ML's friend and colleague acts like he's in 5th grade. I couldn't finish the series. It was just too silly and childish.

Japanese Drama '' Eye Love You '' is a fantasy-office romance with a cute couple, but a messy fantasy story.

First of all, the love story was enjoyable. The couple had chemistry, which aided the drama a lot, and the comical misunderstandings were cute. The second couple was entertaining as well.

The office drama was also nice and the relationship between father and daughter was so sweet!

However, the fantasy element was all over the place. The drama seemed to forget about it for most of the series' length, and then, they tried to add some melodrama to it towards the ending, but they only ended up mishandling the whole affair.

Finally, the performances were great by everyone in the cast.

So, overall, six out of ten.
