Sooyoung is older than Yoojung & was already famous as a visual member from one of the biggest Asian girl groups…
The previous two people have already answered. Why are you so useless? However, your kind words touch me, I am happy to feel younger now. Thank you, Ajhumma.
They come across as caricatural, but it's actually all based on real life cases, even the parts that seem the…
You learn me that, it's amazing. Now, I'm also as dumbfounded you were. Oo I still suppose the writer put a lot of storytelling in this ? I mean: is it precisely what happened ? Like the scene with the big boss I mentionned before ?
Episode 5 goes up a level! Those directors with red and green hair are so hideous. Ugh!
Read next "Spoiler" tag, for some funny lines from the episode.
The fact that the drama is episodic is turned as an advantage in this one. It allows for a whole stock of bad characters to be introduced on a regular basis. But really bad ones! I appreciate that the limit of abuse is pushed so far. Although at some point, the villains are so caricatural, that again, it turns into comedy. I don't know if it's done on purpose or not, but at least I feel that the writer plays script games with glee.
The scene when KDG visited the bully’s father lol I was grinning ear to ear. That magazine switch scene was…
I dislike episodic dramas and the concept of A-Team bores me. Normally, I should not have gone beyond the first episode. But here, the drama found the right tone. When it's really good, I won't cling to my prejudices. On the contrary, it's doubly pleasant to like a drama that was almost impossible to like on paper. ;-)

I can't believe this is just the director's second drama, and that this guy has nothing else on his sheet.
Note that the screenwriter has only written movies before this. And it shows in the way the drama is written. He goes to the essential and removes unnecessary scenes. Even the dialogues are thought this way, often short and punchy lines. On any dialogue, he will look for surprises.
For example: End of episode 2 / Beginning of episode 3, when Kim Do Gi meets Kang Ha Na for the first time, in the cab park. The dialogue turns quickly in an unexpected way. It's a conflict in appearance, but I found it very funny.

Guy, it's what I call good comedy. ;-) There is even some comedy in one of the background music, which immediately made the drama transition into K2000 mode, or that kind of series.
Same kind of harpy as in Hotel Del Luna but much less funny. The archetypal woman who is repulsive to men. According…
I know that the drama can reserve an evolution for the character. This was not the case for HDL, whose FL remained unbearable until the end, even if the actress was very cute, like Jang Na Ra is too. But the drama was already annoying, anyway. Enough to give up. If you're wondering about a literary metaphor, I can't help much. Sorry, it's out of my hands.
It was not complicated to understand. 6 words were enough.This is a born dead drama.Copied and pasted from other…
A person who likes this genre a lot or who hasn't watched the previous references might actually enjoy it. In my case, I forced myself to watch. The cliffhanger at the end should make me want to see the sequel. But after struggling for an hour, it was more like a release. ;-)
There is some subtle dark comedy in the drama. Some characters are so cynicals, like the insurance saleswoman in episode 1 & 2. Even if the drama is serious, there is some way to laugh. Just some punchy lines sometimes.
Baek Sung Mi overrate a bit too much her seductive ability. LOL! Lady, you are as scary as a mummy. Every time I smell your breath, it smells like mothballs.
Although Lee Je Hoon is a good actor, it is still strange that Kim Do Gi is so good actor too: He perfectly embodies the naive, nice and polite teacher. :-D
Fun fact about actor Kim Eui Sung. In the last scene of episode 1, there is a crime reenactment in front of a house. The house is exactly the same house as in W : Oh Sung Moo's house. And Oh Sung Moo is incarnated by actor Kim Eui Sung. The actor go to the same house, in two differents dramas. :-)
This is such a refreshing show, love how the main FL has such a strong personality. Also love how they showed…
Same kind of harpy as in Hotel Del Luna but much less funny. The archetypal woman who is repulsive to men. According to the first episode, I don't see any way out for a romance I could believe in. But I think the lead actress is good because it's a character far removed from her other roles, and she's competent to play it.
It was not complicated to understand. 6 words were enough. This is a born dead drama. Copied and pasted from other ghost dramas but much worse. Boring, sterile, useless, depressing, noisy. It was a pain to finish episode 1. I'm lazy to make an inventory of all the things that drove me to a deep boredom today. Waste of time. Drop. I allready write too much for this now. Otherwise, the direction is correct and the narration understandable.
Really ? What for example ? I feel more she's trapped in the situation.
She says he has two sides because: - He acts nice in public with her or with his other fans. (he save her!) - In private, when alone with her, he is obnoxious. Again, the character isn't really pushed much in that direction. We never see him having a nasty discussion about his fans with his manager for example. I suppose he like his others fans and is not contemptuous.
When they are forced to cohabit, it will have an impact, and I expect scenes like this: - When the cameras are shooting, he will be kind and considerate to her. He will smile with annoyance, because it is certain that she will do things to annoy him. - When the cameras are off, he will be obnoxious to her again. - There is bound to be a gag or plot twist in which he talks harshly to her, even though he thinks the cameras are off. Unfortunately, they are on and this is broadcast in public, tarnishing his reputation.
Episode 1 completed. This drama don't wait for you to decide if it's good or bad. It will look for you where you are and catch you. Situations are harsh and powerfull. The taxi operation quarter is a bit ridiculous, but it's like a good scene of comedy. At least, there is no painfull forced comedy or out of context slapstick. The drama is well-paced and punchy.

However, your kind words touch me, I am happy to feel younger now.
Thank you, Ajhumma.
It's about THIS woman, the type who is impossible to live with.
Otherwise, I know many women who are very pleasant. ;-)
Pyo Ye Jin as a schoolgirl is so weird.
I wonder if we'll see Kim Eui Sung as a schoolboy too. ^^
I still suppose the writer put a lot of storytelling in this ? I mean: is it precisely what happened ? Like the scene with the big boss I mentionned before ?
XX - "President."
BB - "No, no. I'm not a president. I'm an evil... what?"
XX - "Evil businessman."
ZZ - "But I deleted it immediately."
BB - "Of course. You deleted it. But... what about what's in my brain? How are you going to delete that?"
Damn! Kim Do Gi choose himself to push the revenge button.
It will shit in the fan on this case... ^^
LOL!!! The job audition! Hilarious.
DIRECTOR - "With a curriculum vitae like that, you could get a job at any major company. Why did you choose us?"
KIM DO GI - "It's close to my home."
Those directors with red and green hair are so hideous. Ugh!
