I didn't understand the last scene. Why did Mr Gu take the money bag?
He was doing his collection rounds…. Basically to collect money weekly from all the branches and hand it to his boss. So even though his “hyung” took all the money and ran away, he still has to hand over the weekly expected cash to his boss coz if otherwise both him and his hyung would be dead. So he basically forked it out of his own money… and is otw to give it to Chairman Shin, to bail himself and his hyung outta this mess….
I do miss seeing Seo In Guk playing such character, reminds me of Prince Louis :)However I just realised i'm dragging…
Yea. I felt it too around Episode 10… everything was done right though aside from the romance bit…. But just something is always amiss when it came together… no idea if it’s the pacing or editing or just chemistry…. The ideas are pretty good but 18 episodes is probably too long…. 12-13 would have been much better. I just skipped to the last episode, considered dropped… Even the twist and the villains were good, but just everything somehow falls flat after the first 2-3 episodes… like nothing really hooks you.
The romance chemistry and pairing was just so bad. Like completely 0 and flat… the concept was good though… a fake shaman relying on technology and data…. But like the execution wasn’t great….. although ML did a pretty good job… something was always off.
man wtf why did 3 of the main actors have to leave... unlike everyone else i was rly enjoying the drama and looking…
Exactly. I was so pissed, annoyed and turned off for the first few episodes. The replacements were so bad and a downgrade…. But S3 ended up being super exciting/fun to watch because this is where the “good were rewarded”….. and that felt good man.
Damn… this makjang is so trashy but it’s so damn good. The cast was so good. Even the kids/teenagers… As dramatic and trashy it was, some of the dialogue really made sense and it was very realistic in various aspects…. why on Earth did they change the cast for S3….. 😡😡😡
Its not because its a much older production but because Joy of Life is a lot more fun and funnier but maintain…
That’s true, but I think it’s partially coz Mainland’s production was kinda behind esp back then, so they probably weren’t that open and creative yet when it comes plots and themes…. Even now the creativity bit still has a lot of room for improvement…
But seriously the development and progress the past 5 yrs has been exponential for the Mainland productions. Like it’s super apparent in all aspects… CGI, storyline, color grading, wardrobe etc.
Why on Earth did they change the cast…. 🙄🙄🙄😒😒😒😡😡😡 and I’m sorry to say this but the replacements didn’t fill in the large shoes…..
Lee Tae Gon and the actress who was his stepmother was the perfect cast, their chemistry was off the charts and it’s actually believable…. Lee Tae Gon looks entirely like the role… lol. Like if he lies….. you’d just fall for his charm just because of his face+gaze… 🤣 WHYYYYY did they change that actor…??? I wanted to watch him on the receiving end in S3!!! Ughhhhhhhh!!! Even Seung Hoon… could totally see why they paired him with that wife/ex-wife, they look visually stunning on-screen. Just like some couples in real life. All the replacements were epic fail.
Seo Ban is so damn sweet and cool…. 😍😍 his story kinda reminds me of Koo Jun Yup and Barbie Hsu in real life, it’s seriously quite similar. The most surprising thing is Barbie Hsu’s ex-husband reacted the exact same way like how it was portrayed in this series. Makjang aside, I actually think the whole infidelity + couple situations + family dialogues + wisdom are quite realistic and was very thought-provoking. Love the Seo Ban couple the most because it’s really plausible and realistic….
Really sad that there isn’t a Season 4 given the crazy extreme ending.
Agree. Why aren’t they together…. So he really doesn’t fancy her at all…….? 🤔
Yea I thought about it too on why they wrapped the other one so conclusively and was also very sweet and just let this one….. uhhhhhhh…. 🤔🤔🤔🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️🙆🏻♀️🙆🏻♀️🙆🏻♀️
I wish it was seasonal. Wasn’t an open ending, the closed it BUT would still totally work as seasonal…
1. No love triangle at all 2. Uhhhhh depends which leads, can’t remember the exact episodes but pretty late in the series. Like around episode 10. 3. No, none…. 4. Yeap.
Uhh, your questions are a bit odd for this drama though…. It isn’t exactly the typical romance series. I mean there is a very touching one at the end…. But the main theme isn’t actually about the couples getting tog…. 🤔 it’s quite a unique series, difficult to describe… but there aren’t many like heart wrenching, fluttering moments like the typical romance series…. It completely isn’t the focus of the series at all… it’s basically closer to the genres they tagged above in the Details section, there isn’t even Romance mentioned….
This was surprisingly quite good. They were quite smart to keep it short at 8 episodes… it’s not like a hit but worth the watch at least… and it is quite exciting+engaging…
