Late Stage Capitalism Love

It's really hard to trust a Netflix series with inexperienced writers, in this case, it seems this drama is still the writers' only project. The combination usually results in producing flops and slops, and the pattern seems to be consistent with this one as well. It goes without saying, this explains why the dialogue was unbelievably atrocious and mind numbing. The story itself remained in a nonfunctional state throughout its run and mixing it with a half-assed social commentary piece resulted in a certified stinker. Even its creator know that it was a failed attempt so they abandoned the idea after a few episodes. Amidst all of that, somehow, they managed to create 16 episodes. I guess having the characters talking in slow-mo helped, which made it more painful in combination for how the dialogue was.

Who likes analytical psychology

Honestly, I've been thinking for a long time about whether to write a review. ..why? Because you can find so many reviews here that you might think it would be a portal for aspiring psychologists who write their doctoral thesis. Everything is said or written. . I go 60% with a lot of analysis, but I really don't understand the rest. The rest is that the four main actors can actually be seen from the outset. It seems that a general social problem is revealed in that one is frightened, insecure, full of doubt and naivety, nevertheless looking for the only true love, but cannot live his actually good attribute, because he had to grow up without a father and thus lacks important abilities to act. In short, he doesn't want to be seen as a mother's son. The second main character, branded, disappointed, suspicious, traumatized, full of longing but also calculating and surrendering to the seemingly inevitable fate. The two meet and are so similar that they should actually understand each other blindly and the drama could actually have a happy ending after the fifth episode. But the author wanted not just one chewing gum but a whole pack. Thus, he made both of them to remain silent or to make the audience despair with two or three dialogues per scene. I thought about all the drama 100 times, seriously now?? I wanted to cancel, but then they decided to assign an apparent test person to each of them. And two types, completely opposite from the social stand, to ask the question, what do you think? Do you think love only works with someone who is intellectually and materially equal to you, or can you overlook pre-sense views..??? That would probably be the first moral club to make you think. Only in the drama are both out and used to distract from deficits of the two main protagonists. So that the two don't have to talk a syllable more than usual. OMG .. For me, this is all very unrealistic, because it would never take place between two people, although the topic is quite real. It's like with bad journalism. The headline is not compatible with the report. The only honest character is the friend who has the objective view, but is based on false consideration, because everything seems too stupid for him.
The acting performance can be evaluated neither positively nor negatively. positive, because there were only two human emotions. Anger and grief..ok ok..maybe there was off and a smile on the rigid lips and all that was played oscarriri..negative, because nobody in reality, in emotional situations, freezes to the salt pillar. And that happened more often than one would like..
On the whole, I could not understand why a topic such as toxic, cowardly, hypocritical, self-serving but also deep, intimate, perfect and honest love and affection got so little dialogue. To compensate for this, there was too little physical use through facial expressions and moving charisma.
I really like the two main protagonists, but I didn't convince myself, including drama.

🙄..... Seems like i just wasted my time watching this frustrating , depressing , negative, and toxic drama . Really frustrating leads who are surprisingly annoying specially Suyeong who acted like a robot throughout the drama . It seemed like they have got a pass to hurt others . Mr.Jeong and Migyeong didn't deserve to be treated like that 😭 . What did Sangsu liked about the boring rude lead . The only good thing thing was Mr.Jeong and migyeong moving on and being successful . Like seriously ......It all ended still questioning if what they felt was really love ...... 😒 Honestly It felt more like lust rather than love . Lastly , this drama could have just ended with 8 episodes so why drag so much . I'm so frustrated that i feel like watching Hotel del luna again so i could feel better .

Narcissist personality disorder.

Thanks to the first review I read after I watched the episode, I just stopped watching!
I caught right away this Manipulative Perverse Narcissist behavior!
This is good to watch when you don't know how that works but for me, having been 16 years under a husband like that, I'm done!
I already saw she was a NPD after her reaction!! But had a doubt at first when he was waiting, she was late, and she told him she couldn't come then after she saw his face, sends him a text saying she was joking : typical NPD!!!
So if you don't want to see this because you are in such a relationship, don't even watch!
For me, after one episode, I'm done.

Tóxicos

Es increíble lo tóxica que fue la relación de los protagonistas... aún así termine de verla con la esperanza de ver un final feliz, pero quedo con un final abierto a la interpretación.
Me frustraba viendo como ella elegía siempre la peor opción posible teniendo la felicidad al frente, pero no... prefería sufrir y tomar el peor camino posible. Muchas veces los odie a ambos, pero pese a todo igual me gusto el kdrama, no tanto, pero me gustó.

por eso le doy un 7, creo que es una nota justa ya que igual me entretuvo

As metáforas são muito boas e reflexivas

O enredo deste K-drama se passa no escritório de uma das filias do banco KCU e acompanha as histórias de quatro personagens. Dizem que ficou muito a desejar como tentaram mostrar o realismo de como é sentir as emoções de cada um dos personagens. Talvez um pouco, mas com os 4 principais, onde os caminhos se cruzam, traz o sentimento de como é estar tentando fazer de tudo por amor, até onde conseguimos ir por alguém. Até onde vamos? O quanto isso pode doer se arriscar assim, certo?

Pois se jogar em relacionamentos, não é algo fácil e de vez enquanto a casos em que insistimos mesmo que lá no fundo sentimos que não seja certo, que não é aquilo que queremos de fato. 'Investimento de Risco' trás tudo isso entre os personagens, Com Sang-Soo e Soo-Young, O policial e rica da Min yeong, todos dando de tudo para darem certo, mas no final ao experimentar as complexidades de relações seguem caminhos diferentes quando tentavam de tudo e para manter seus empregos intactos a todo custo, se investindo tudo.

O dorama trás reflexões com metáforas simbólicas, que facilmente conseguimos pensar sobre nós mesmos dia nossa vida, E nos sentimos próximos ao personagem as suas emoçõesm, o que me atraiu muito foi essa proximidade e a sensação humana para o dorama, algo mais pé no chão.

Intenso e real

Adorei este drama, recheado de situações realistas e profundas, com atuações muito boas, protagonistas bonitos e uma história de amor indestrutível. A paixão entre os dois brota de forma arrebatadora e luta contra as pressões de uma sociedade que julga pela classe social, porém nada consegue segurar a tensão que é estar perto de quem se ama . Várias cenas me causaram borboletas no estômago. A história não se perdeu e fiquei torcendo pelo amor dos dois. Gostaria de ver mais histórias como esta. Recomendo.

Denso e dramático

Este é um dorama que foge da linha usual. Vale aqui um aviso para aqueles que procuram um rom-com levinho: este não é um deles. Muito denso, mais lento que o normal e com enorme tensão e carga emocional. Para entender as atitudes dos personagens, que à primeira vista são levianas e incoerentes, é preciso assistir mais de uma vez a série e vê-la com os olhos e sentimentos de cada um deles. Cada gesto, reação e fala dos personagens têm significados importantes para a compreensão do enredo. As últimas cenas, por mais que pareçam que encaminham para um final aberto, dão pistas claras que não. Pela resposta do ML, "Nada, absolutamente nada", indica que os dois finalmente se encontraram curados e amadurecidos e estão prontos para se amarem e procurarem a felicidade futura juntos. A lição que fica: a vida é cheia de arrependimentos, por isso devemos em certos momentos ter a coragem de dizer ou fazer algo pela nossa felicidade.

Tutto versa nella vita alla ricerca della felicità, nel nome dell’Amore

Facciamo tutto per amore. Facciamo tutto per trovare là felicità. Ma questo è autolesionismo allo stato puro. L’amore puro, incondizionato e senza aspettative è prerogativa di pochi. Persino i figli si fanno per egoismo e non di certo per amore del Creato e del Divino.
Lui: Ha (Yoo Yeon-seok) è stato stoico fino all’inverosimile e Lei: Ahn (Moon Ga-young) ha fatto di tutto per restare nella sua autocommiserazione ed è riuscita a restare infelice e lo sarà per sempre! Lo saranno entrambi per sempre! Non è il SE di una volta, ma infinite, perpetuate volte. Hanno fatto tutto il possibile per renderlo impossibile e ci sono riusciti. 16 episodi (che potevano benissimo essere 8) fatti di attese, rimpianti, speranze frantumate. 8/9 anni visti buttati via senza gioia, dov’era? Sono stati sempre “colleghi” che si sono baciati e allontanati. C’è stata una scena di sesso all’inizio di un’episodio che mi ha dato speranza… ma non ho capito dove è andata a finire… era un sogno per noi spettatori? Perché poi si è visto che non si è realizzata… Lui poteva essere felice e costruire davvero qualcosa con My kyng. È stata l’unica relazione in cui ho visto un po’ di serenità, di gioia e sorrisi; fino a quando Lui non ha deciso di ritornare su suoi infelici passi. CHE DELUSIONE! CHE RABBIA! Lei l’ho odiata per quanto caparbia è stata non voler cementarsi nella sua infelicità. Per questo dico che gli ATTORI meritano 10 per aver dovuto sottoporsi a questo copione ma la trama è FORZATISSIMA fino allo sfinimento finale, e finalmente è finito perché potevano andare avanti all’infinito. Quanto dolore forzato l’uomo può subire???

meia boca demais kkkk


Genteee kkk
A equipe é excelente, e pela competência de todos os envolvidos que vc chega até o final do dorama.
Os atores são ótimos, trabalham muito bem, expressam as emoções excelentemente bem. A fotografia, música, edição são excelentes.

A história que não é boa. É muito ruim mesmo, pra não dizer que é ausente.

Tudo acontece pq a protagonista é mal resolvida com ela mesma, e beira ao mal caratismo várias vezes.

Não se justifica nenhuma das atitudes dela, e o par romântico, sr Ha Su Sang ainda se juga por suas proprias atitudes. Ele errou sim, mas foi com a namorada dele. Que inclusive foi maravilhosa do começo ao fim.

A srta Park é a única da história toda que sofreu muito e amadureceu, as demais personagens não apresentaram evolução nenhuma. E sim, ela era muito pra ele, não pq era rica mas pela pessoa que ela é. No final eu queria ver o lado dela da história, pois ela progrediu como funcionária do banco, como pessoa e ainda ia se casar.

A srta Ann, protagonista principal, é péssima em tudo, mas o pior foi o fato dela inventar/fazer uma traição. Esse erro ridículo dela afetou todo mundo, o banco, os funcionários e o rapaz q ela namorava q foi demitido. Foi uma tamanha canalhice…E ela não arrependeu!

Ela é o motivo de todo o problema familiar, e em nenhum momento se arrepende do que fez.
O kdrama tenta justificar as atitudes delas, mas não dá. Nada justifica a maldade dela com pai, com o sr Ha, com o Jong hyun, com a Mi Kyung, e com os demais colegas de trabalho.

O final é tão meia boca como o começo kkkk
