Incredible performance in the real has come! His acting style reminds me of Lee Jae Wook's style particularly in Extraordinary You. The same way Lee Jae Wook's antagonistic presence and brilliant acting elevated the entire work which was by itself not so grand, Jung Eui Jae's acting in the real has come is also just as enigmatic. Definitely looking forward to his future dramas.

lol

I will check them out. Thank you!

Wow! the acting chops on this is next-level. I have seen lots of Chinese reblican era type shows...but this one ...the script, acting, even title elevated the whole thing to new heights. Please recommend anything with this level of scripting, acting if you know any.... Of cos this style is not for everyone.

you replied to my comment. If you noticed, the score dropped from 9.2 to 9.1. If it gets to 8.5, that will be reasonable. I think it surely around 8- 8.5/10 good stuff.

Thought I was alone in finding it too dragged out. Not saying it wasn't a good show, I just wouldn't call it great or amazing in the genre. I suspect most people love the main leads a lot so they overlook how it honestly is.

25 episodes for this storyline is actually excessive. It could even just be a 2.5 hour movie and work. Anyways, you watched it and loved it. That's great. Plus you shared your thoughts. I watched it and found it dull in comparison to many other such shows. Those are my thoughts. I do not need to rate it as high as 9.2 or say I loved it cos many others do. I have highly rated shows in my watchlist that you will find dull or overrated. That's the beauty of life. We all have thoughts and can share it freely. If you don't agree, that's fine. Shouldn't have much bearing on my thoughts. It isn't that deep. The actors did a great job with what they had but someone else like me may be there and regret watching it because many people told them it was 'amazing'.

Slow and dull generally. Definitely overrated. For sure.

overrated.

This is one of those shows where reviewers give FL so much unreasonable hate. She literally did nothing wrong overall. The ML was overbearing most times, bullied her when they were younger to get her attention and so on. They loved each other which was great but I feel viewers get jealous or something of FLs and start writing nonsense on every episode. As a lady myself, I saw almost nothing so absurd or strange about the FL and her decisions. It saddens me that FLs tend to get so much hate for no reason while real life intolerable behaviours from MLs are trivialised or ignored. Worse yet is when women reviewers hate on FLs. Maybe they feel if they were the FL and it was real life they would do and decide better lol. My only take back was doing her BFF a lil dirty towards the end but even that decision had valid reasoning. Also, i liked that the FL was not one of those awkward stick frozen figures we see during kiss scenes lol. It seemed natural.

you have good taste Kate. I also loved Psychopath diary. I have watched it twice already and can't get enough. I discovered the villain actor from the show too and have been keeping tabs on him since then. When i saw him as one of the villains in the new show 'The Glory' it was just so appropriate!!! his acting is just tooooooo good! Love Yoon Si Yoon so much too. Also crowned clown actor is basically one of those enius talents. Truly amazing stuff.,

I legit skip some useless kisses and get annoyed when they start making a big deal about the encounter later.

True. it's unfortunate that these things happen.

you are so right!. i haven't watched this but i always take a step back once i see anything with some kind of infidelity especially at the marriage level. Adultery is adultery and no matter how much dramas try to lighten it particularly in the Japanese drama cases, it remains a fact that it leaves a tread of mess and hurt in its tracks. You really took the words out my mind with this writeup. Super!

His colleague survivor said that he was smiling while they were dying in the lab. Which he did again on the plane. If he was so innocent at the first incidence, he wouldn't find their deaths funny and he would have called an ambulance or portrayed a normal emergency reaction. It means he really was just messed up. I like that the movie doesn't try too hard to explain his reasons. He really was just a bad person albeit with a lovely face.

you are right. We sometimes over glorify the villains back story forgetting that some people have gone through worse and chose to help others in similar situations rather than just get angry and destroy valuable things like a child.

I like that they don't try too hard to understand where the villain was coming from. His motives and ideals just wasn't that important. Dude was crazy and that was that.

How does Lee Joon Gi manage to look so good all the time even at 40? Does he use and drink special anti-ageing water or something ? It's almost surreal. I am a lady but I think i need his skincare routine lol. His acting is so good that even his gait changes when acting a younger person and it is totally believable. He truly is on his own level.
