Screenwriter wrote for Gu Family Book and Dr. Romantic? With Park Seo Joon as the lead (maybe)? Um count me the hell in lol, I’d love to be a non-romance and the female lead is actually the villain oof, that’s rare xD
the ending felt like an unneeded cliffhanger and it’s still bugging tf outta me, but overall this show was fantastic holy— so many powerful messages in just 10 episodes, this show is up there with Navillera when it comes to shedding a few tears, wish it was a longer series but I loved it!
OoF, I knew this show was going to get some awards, so happy for the cast & crew! If only my boi Jin-goo got an award, would’ve been full circle, nonetheless, all the awards were justified and I’m just hella happy this show got the recognition it deserves!
Lmao kdrama writers don’t know how to “do” sad endings unfortunately, 9/10 the lead comes back to life and…
F YEAH DUDE OMG, it’s irritating sometimes because as viewers you can tell when a sad ending might be appropriate but writers shove that “rainbow happy fun times” sh— right at the end of the show and bring leads back to life even though their character development would’ve been completed if they died, its sooo frustrating ... I get why people might like a forced ending to make it happy, but I’ve never been a fan, it’s like the writers just say “whatever makes the audience happy” without thinking of the plot of their entire show and what deaths would be best for each character, that’s why I prefer bittersweet endings, where someone dies, but the lead is still happy, lives with their death and has others around them to make them happy.
We’ll definitely see in the next few episodes if they do a sad ending or not, but like I said, writers don’t have the balls to do that, so it’ll likely be a forced happy ending, shocker ... xD
Lol I remember we had a conversation in snowdrop comment section about how second leads/side characters are thrown…
Oof one of the many things I’ve started to hate about kdramas dude, its gotten pretty bad, everyone’s “oppa” crazy or hates the female lead, you just can’t win :’( and ohhhh 100% like just because my favorite actor/actress is the main lead in a show, doesn’t mean I’m gonna let that clout overshadow bad writing and pacing, but that’s just me, I know people rate dramas differently on MDL or in general based of enjoyment or writing etc. but sometimes I wish people wouldn’t let their kdrama crush’s overshadow the content of a show, because in reality if it’s bad, it’s bad lol, and not even your oppa can fix that, they definitely get defensive holy sh—— dude, you can’t say nothin’ without someone destroying your ass on this platform, jk its the same with Twitter too sksks xD
Nepotism is becoming a serious issue in kdramaland actually, I’m seeing more idol stars cast in dramas, a lot of famous actors and actresses, but I cannot remember the last time I saw a rookie actor boost his/her career in a popular show, I wouldn’t call Kim Seon-ho a rookie actor but his career definitely got a boost from Start-Up and I appreciated that, it was a legitimate “f u” to all those people who didn’t think he was going to make it, he’s a fantastic actor :’) and oof hell yeah, I didn’t give a sh— about the main leads in start-up dude lmaoooo, I love Suzy but oof, her character seriously pissed me off, and Hyuk’s ... The Swoon only goes for actors with popularity, oneday I’d like those actors to come forward and say “hey, you should include supporting actors too, because people need to see this kind of chaotic crack, and you’re missing out big time lol”
Indeed it is! Lmao I love ace and I want to watch this so bad, I’m sure VIKI will pick it up eventually, but I don’t wanna wait that long, I hate waiting for episodes weekly for newer shows as it is, you know? Sksks oh well :’(
