Roommates of Poongduck 304 Special (2022)

Nice vibes. Light on content. Easy watching.

After episodes 1 and 2 had aired, Kim Ji Woong (Ji Ho Joon) and Yoon Seo Bin (Seo Jae Yoon) sat down together to experience the final cut of their hard work on the show.

Most of the time, they seem to be more absorbed in just watching the episodes for the first time because they don't have much of substance to say (or perhaps are choosing very carefully what to share), so it feels like we're just silently watching these cherry-picked scenes along with them as they occasionally ooh and ah and laugh at something funny. But even though it was few and far between, it is interesting when they do add a little bit of insight into the character acting in specific moments, what was going through someone's mind during filming, or how certain scenes were filmed.

If you're looking for 17 minutes of trade secrets, juicy anecdotes, or the answers to your most burning questions about what it was like on set, this likely won't deliver to your expectations. But if silence doesn't bother you and you're mostly in the mood to sit back, watch the actors' faces and casual comfortable gestures as they process how the editing all came together, and smile along with them, this is probably for you.

It could be a good pre-drama teaser if you're still not sure if the series is to your taste, but it could also be a great post-drama watch, depending on your personal preference for spoilers!

Keep in mind that this is a commentary and not an interview. For me, it was fun watching these two react to the first two episodes.

It's nice to get a little background information about how something was recorded.

I like to watch commentaries in general to get to know what the actors think about specific scenes, to get some background knowledge and here: simple to see them again infront of a camera. They have a really nice chemistry!

There's not much to say about this. You shouldn't expect a lot of new information, but it's a nice work on top if you finished the show and want to see some more of them together - just like I did.
