Sorry but I find Makeup and styling flawless. Have to say this is one of the best styling I have ever seen on…
If i was hating or nitpicking, i wouldnt have given 8.5 score, not every other person is hater of your favourite, neither im interested nor i want to waste my time on nitpicking or hating her, its simply not worth of my time. What i felt, i just expressed here it as my opinion.
You're supposed to feel like that ATM because yes she is detached that's basically what she's striving for
I know that & I also know that in later part she will play major role in story. But right now, her scenes just feel boring to me and thats another complaint i have with the show at this point.
My biggest complaint about this drama so far is the makeup styling of the leads. Oh man, its godawful. The foundation is clearly visible and whats with Dilraba’s super dark red lipstick in every situation?? No matter what she is doing, she always has a full face of makeup, whether she is fighting or just walking around. Even the ML’s makeup is overly done. The production team needs to remember that this isnt a historical fantasy or a chic office romance, its an action fantasy set in the modern world, so the styling should reflect that tone.
Apart from that, im not enjoying the FL's solo scenes, whether she is with the ML or just by herself, because nothing happens in them. She feels too disconnected from the main storyline. Maybe later she will take a more active role in the plot but right now she isnt contributing much.
Rather im actually enjoying the scenes with Ms. Lin and the mountain hunters gang more, they are at least intriguing.
I don't think so cause season 1 and 2 are connected, so probably 3 would also be part of the main story line.
Main story is already over in S1. This show is anthological crime drama. Anyone can watch any season without watching prior ones. Just lil knowledge about lead characters nd main concept is enough to watch show from any season.
DearX E8 was absolute cinema. Ah jin is definitely one of the most fascinating and complex main characters i have ever seen in kdramas. Her breakup with Heo In gang was one of the coldest and cruelest breakup, she was absolutely ruthless. But this episode also showed that she still has bit of human side, especially in her moments with Ingang’s grandmother.
What happened to his grandmother pushed Ahjin back into the same dark pit she once fought her way out of. Her complex personality is truly fascinating to watch. Its sheer brilliance and the way the director executed everything with perfect bgm and perfectly conveyed emotions, is just so perfect.
This was an intense and emotionally exhausting thriller about domestic violence. It was engaging from start to finish, though some parts felt really heavy and tiring to watch. I honestly didnt expect to like it, but in the end, i did.
There were so many moments where i wanted to jump into the screen and beat those piece of shit characters, especially the ML and his detective sister. They were truly awful people.
Both Jeon Sonee and Lee You Mi did a great job. Lee You Mi, especially, was amazing as the victim of domestic violence, her acting felt so real and heartbreaking.
Overall, it was a really good thriller with a dark and tense atmosphere that kind of reminded me of Lies Hidden in My Garden.
E1-4 Another banger thriller dropped this week after The Manipulated. Kim Yoojung completely owned the screen, her performance was powerful, haunting and easily Baeksang worthy. She carried every scene with such intensity that its impossible to look away.
I love how the drama balances its dark, gory and gritty tone with deep psychological tension. Baek Ahjin is an exceptional manipulator, the way she twists every situation and uses people for her own advantage is both terrifying and fascinating to watch. Her performance in final scene in E3 was pure brilliance and will definitely be remembered for a long time.
Even KYD impressed me here. I didnt feel any overacting or awkwardness, his performance blended well with the tone of the show.
I honestly cant wait for next Thursday, the next episodes cant come soon enough.
The first two episodes were good. This one feels like a non toxic version of Secret Relationships. I liked the MC with his best friend but he isnt bad with the team leader either.
Wow, the first 4 eps were absolutely insane, definitely among the most intense ones i have watched this year. Every minute kept me hooked, the pacing was relentless, and it constantly made my heart race and blood boil at the same time.
E1 and 2 perfectly set the stage for the main storyline. They were brutal and emotionally heavy, ML went through so much that it genuinely made me teary eyed watching his suffering. You could really feel his helplessness and pain.
E3 and 4 shifted gears into full on prison action. Prison escape sequence had me glued to the screen and the massive prison fight that followed was pure chaos in the best way possible. The ending of E4 hinted at something even darker, it almost felt like the main villain was creating a Squid Game style setup for the dangerous inmates, including the ML.
Overall i thoroughly enjoyed these first 4 episodes. JCW completely nailed his role , his performance, expressions and action scenes were all top notch. The drama's direction and intensity make it one of the most gripping premieres i have seen in a while. I seriously cant wait to see what happens next.
Enjoyed the first 4 episodes a lot. Most of the credit goes to the ML Gi Jeong, he was so damn funny. A stupid character but he made me laugh the whole time.
Skipping the panel members comments like they are contagious, it feels like the creators think im too dumb to follow the show without the panel’s brilliant over reactionary explanations spoon feeding me every scene.
