Sorry for the late post on newly arrived SBS Wed-Thurs drama While You Were Sleeping but in between watching the first episode and then having tickets to Hamilton last night, it was a sensory and entertainment awesomeness overload. I love While You Were Sleeping, love love love it! This is the first drama since Goblin that has roped my excitement and dug its claws into me to want more. The first two episodes that aired on Wednesday was almost a self-contained story on its own, with the beginning and final moments of the episode bookending an emotional and cathartic payoff already.
I ship the OTP so badly, with both Lee Jong Seok and Suzy delivering in spades in terms of acting and chemistry. This is what I wanted Uncontrollably Fond to deliver and it couldn’t until the last two episodes, and here it’s happening right off the bat with even more excitement than Park Hye Ryun‘s last drama Pinocchio. The ratings for the night came in with MBC‘s Hospital Ship still in the lead midway through airing at 9.8% and 10.6%, Sleeping second with 7.2% and 9.2%, and poor Manhole with 1.9% heading into the final episode.

WYWS rating will surely increase in coming weeks. The first episode got overwhelming positive response from knetz.
Suzy’s acting got better. Her acting is actually better than LJS’s. Lee Sang Yeob’s acting is really great.
lol what an exaggeration
The first episode had me thinking about the drama the whooooole day. It's been awhile since I've been this excited to watch a drama.
Suzy'acting has improved and thank Goodness bc I don't think my girl could continue riding on the architecture movie's success.
Her chemistry with her mom is very fun and she sold it well. In fact it was because of her scenes with mom that she sold me as her character. I am very proud of her.
She definitely still has room for improvement but let's celebrate the improvement that she has made this far.
Suzy and LJS are so cute, I love their chemistry in the second episode which imo was less exciting, I'm hoping they bring the exciting fast paced plot from the first episode back in episode 3.
Kudos to the writer, the story is very captivating. Hope it won't turn out like W which confused me heck at the end. Since this drama is pre-produced, I hope the flow of story will be smooth. I also like the episode ends with completeness ??
Ahh, it's so good!
I just finished 3&4 and it's so good!!!
Suzy is awesome in this she really fits the character.....and LJS is not playing a genius but a kind slow guy lol.
Lee Sang Yeob is killing it his character is total trash.
I'm so happy it didn't let me down!
It is simply amazing!!!!
I love so much LJS and PHR!!!!
Yay I'm glad it's good! I'm not a huge fan of either lead in general but im desperate for a truly captivating drama. Can't wait to watch and THANK GOD it's not a Kocawa exclusive ugh...
Also I'm so jealous you got to see Hamilton live!!
yes, I'm jealous too. Still waiting for my ticket after 6 months.
I guess the director did a good job in guiding Suzy in this drama....they were skeptical of him when he was on the helm of Doctor Crush, being it was his first major production. Happy for fans of Suzy, loved her in Dream High! One drama I enjoy watching over again and again.....show I discovered how good a singer KSH besides being an excellent actor!
I plan on giving this a go and am glad for the positive response. I'm the rare person who has never seen Suzy in a drama so she has a clean slate as far as I'm concerned. I will say that I also loved the first episode of Goblin....and dropped it at episode 9. I so want a drama to have staying power through its run, and I know it is hard with the demands of the live shoot etc.
