He is the man I love to hate... such good analysis material... it does not get much clearer than his behaviour.…
Indeed. He's someone I love to hate as well. Actually BoF is a drama I love to hate as a whole. There's so much toxicity in it, I could write an essay over it xD I think it's safe to say most people feel the same as us xD
I love JBL's portrayal of survivor's guilt so much. The drama hits very differently esp since I watched it not long after I lost my father. Into the Ring is a much lighter watch, I loved it for different reasons as well (direction, cinematography, characterisation and performances being the key factor). It's such a stylish show as a whole due to its usage of camera techniques that's mostly seen in Western movies. It reminds me of Amelie (the French movie).
To anyone who longs for healthy relationships in Kdrama, I'd HIGHLY recommend watching Into the Ring and Just Between Lovers. These 2 dramas have possibly the healthiest relationship between leads I've ever seen in a Kdrama period especially Into the Ring.
Also I'm 100% sure Gu Jun Pyo is universally hated these days. He's the epitome of a toxic, problematic, piece of trash.
Love 020 is 3/10 for me. You Are My Glory is 5/10.
Both are mediocre dramas bogged down by the unconvincing performances of the leads. Love 020 especially is beyond cringy (esp when everyone fangirls over YY's character for no reason).
Many people hate shits like these really, outside of the annoying fujoshis you'll find that not many people like these BLs that use toxic tropes esp Chinese BLs.
Lmao their ratings history shows bad their judgment in dramas really are. Be Melodramatic 1/10, CLOY 8.5/10, Girlfriend 9/10 etc. XD Talk about having terrible judgment.
It is. It's a really bad show. Badly directed, badly acted and the writing itself is quite shit and romanticises sexual harassment. I cannot stand it personally.
If you do give it another try, you would love Jang Nara's character even more ^_^
Yeah I already really liked how she was in it, the dark persona really suits her well which was very surprising considering how bright her usual roles are. I personally expected the drama to be you know like a supernatural horror the explored Korean shamanism. Just didn't expect a supernatural crime thriller so that part disappointed me a lot.
I've seen about half the episodes of this drama. I LOVED Jang Nara in this but I wasn't a fan of the characterisation of the ML and I didn't like the story much either so I dropped it. Jang Nara defo was the star of the show though.

It's one of the most stylishly shot Kdramas I've seen. The cinematographer for this knows their shit.
On another news Que Sera Sera is in production nightmare. It hasn't even started filming and he cast in that role back in like 2019.
