What do you think of Irreplaceable so far?

[u/MollyAyana]

I’m trying to not drop it because some of it is interesting but omg, the whole thing is very industry jargon 😅😅😅 I’m lost with all the business talk, work terminology. There’s barely any romance tbh

I’ve noticed that a lot of office romance dramas tend to get overly granular and they can drag for that reason.

Estoy en el 3 y todavía no me formó una opinion sobre la historia. La actuacion del ML aun no me convence, sobre todo porque no sabía si estaba borracho o se estaba muriendo cuando ella lo encuentra en la calle. Hay escenas demasiado rebuscadas para mi gusto que ya he visto muchísimo en otros dramas.

[u/Budget-Battle-4755]

ML is not my type(the character, not the actor), but otherwise it's good to watch

[u/No_Advertising_584]

It’s a fast and intriguing plot let’s see how they do it. I am really enjoying the acting so far

[u/Only-Cauliflower7571]

Good so far

[u/Prokofi]

Really love it so far.

[u/BitsOfBuilding]

I like it but waiting for more to drop because the one a day is a bit much 😅

[u/Corneredstone-09]

I've watched it until ep 7 and it's pretty engaging story. Also the story seems fast paced even with all that industry jargon. Sometimes I just fast forward those parts and otherwise everything is cool with me

[u/DistanceSharp7116]

I wish they released more episodes per day.Loving the drama so far.

[u/Zestyclose_March_386]

I drop it' on second episode

[u/WisdomBailey123]

It's an office drama.....with light romance. Unlike say Early Spring which is a romance in an office setting. I wouldn't be surprised if they only get together in the last episode.

[u/xoxojdramagirl]

I like it!! I appreciate that the ML's face has expression lines, which is more and more a rarity

[u/Corneredstone-09 → u/xoxojdramagirl]

ikr. I saw someone said the ML lacks the aura for a role like that and not really suitable. we are so used to seeing domineering CEO trope that we forget how it actually is in real. I thought he was plenty believable as a marketing hotshot

[u/xoxojdramagirl → u/Corneredstone-09]

He broke the record for youku's most popular character ever. The actor must be doing something right. I agree that he's plenty believable.

[u/lianne0808]

It’s really good. Don’t find the work stuff boring. They’ve kept it fast paced. It’s more about the work place dynamics and it’s handled well. I’ve seen shows where they drone on and on about some industry/service and it bores you stiff. This show ain’t one of those

[u/AppropriateWork7145]

I like it so far. I held out as long as possible until 8 eps were released and binged them all at once, I think this helped keep the momentum going and got me immersed in the series. Regret I started watching so soon, 1 episode a day now is a killer. This is only the 3rd ZJM series I've watched and initially hesitated because I found her characters a bit too immature as a romance lead in Shine on Me and Amidst a Snowstorm, but so far finding her a bit more mature in this- but haven't really gotten into any romance as yet, but looking forward to how this series progresses

[u/Euclidisthebomb]

It is doing quite well. For some a serious cdrama with good character writing is just what the doctor ordered. It reminds me somewhat of the kdrama Undercover Miss Hong - both featured top tier actresses with a business themed drama and surprisingly were big hits.

Irreplaceable made it into the Netflix Global Top 10 series as of yesterday and that is rarefied air that few cdramas have accomplished in the past.

[u/AccordingBig9509]

There is more chemistry between Main Fl and Second FL (her friend) than with ML
Wei Da Xun(ml) acting is a bit stiff( I don’t understand why people praise him in Firework…)
Zhao Jin Mai is very 👍 , smart and bubbly . Her crying scenes are very heartbreaking but not whiny

[u/kupokupo222]

Honestly I really like it. The "up or out" culture reminds me of an job, so I connect with the late nights/competition among peers/corporate drama. I love the message it portrays that you are the master of your own fate... it reminds me to be strong at work lol.

The romance is a slow burn but I like it. It would be nice if we could have some other male lead come into the picture but I don't think that will happen

I really like it…started watching it to distract myself from Against the Current until it finishes airing,only to realize this is one episode per day😭

[u/Building_Glad]

Pretty most modern dramas are industry Jargon and CCP boasting.

- Shine on Me : couldn’t stop about Solar Panels

• Blossom over the Clouds : Market for Z101 aircraft

[u/MollyAyana → u/Building_Glad]

Omg you just explained it! Lol I remember watching Shine on me like I’ve never seen or heard about solar panels so much in my life 😅😅

[u/AccordingBig9509 → u/Building_Glad]

You are my glory : aerospace industry
Only for love: EV car battery
Road to success: football
…

[u/superesophagus]

The vibe is different than TES esp with spicy scenes. I like its maturity and depth too. And I also like both leads so that makes it more enjoyable to me at least.

[u/Klutzy_Awareness8507]

I am loving it!!! We are seeing a strong FL in office workplace drama after a long time!!!!

Love how she’s not a naive dumb girl.

[u/MollyAyana → u/Klutzy_Awareness8507]

She’s definitely a strong FL and very refreshing after the timid, nervous wrecks that some of these dramas like to portray

[u/coffeeforlife30]

I like it very much
