As much as I was entertained with this drama, I'm not too happy with the last few events. Their arguments (MinJu not wanting YongJu to bear his burdens because it can be painful for her) which was valid relationship disagreements felt swept under the rug in favor of focusing on their beer.
we should being respectful and understand the current situation which is really really serious
true... but sadness for not getting to watch a new episode is valid. as long as we don't go demanding mbc to give us priority over their political going-ons
I've noticed a concerning trend in K-dramas where the influence of Western culture seems to be leading to more…
If you've been watching K-movies from a long time ago, you'd know that what you're pointing out was not in K-dramas have been there. It's only the tv censorship that prevented them to show these. Shows not meant for free tv are not shackled by these censorship.
reviews of people skipping/fast forwarding in a single digit eps drama are as useful as handbrake on a canoe.…
change canoe to kayak for better trunk imagery hahaha but yeah, if this drama isn't for you just move on, say i. why even rate it low and prevent people who like these kind of drama to think twice because of the mdl rating. it's like going to a rock concert and complaining that it's loud and noisy hahahaha
it's not slow burn. it's a mood piece. slow burn means the events take time but things are moving along... just slow. here, scene are built to give a mood/vibe before moving on as if life goes on slo-mo or pause and it holds you in that moment to marinate in that mood.
This was very much a "mood piece" where it's slow, emotive, visually crafted, and acting from this stellar cast did not disappoint. If you like fast or watch shows sped up, this isn't for you. You'll miss all the subtleties that's part of the show.
My only gripe is that one bgm track that doesn't do it for me but it's on repeat. Love the songs they picked except that one lol And the editing of the investigation vs the sequential narrative pre-finding the trunk. I had to think "ah, this happens during this time" since there was no visual/tone difference. It just took me out of the show a bit to take note of when it fast forwards to those parts.
All in all, it was okay but not unforgettable.
