IK it's just a TV show but it kinda is aiming for realism though because one of the major arguments shown in the first episode was one of morality - if a psychopath's unborn child should be killed as they could "inherit the psychopath gene". And that didn't sit right with me because it's a forced one, it's not rooted in reality. A better argument could have been something like "Should the innocent members of a psychopath's family be given new identities" or something like that instead.

It went way overboard with it but the second episode was so much better. Focused, well paced and no time skips.

3. This show throws a huge pile of baloney at you with its "psychopathic gene" talk. Let me tell you - it does NOT exist. There's very little proof of genetics having any effect on psychopathy. Similarly, there's also very little evidence that environmental factors have any effect on psychopathy. A clear explanation of cause is non-existent really at this moment, psychopaths are psychopaths because they just are. The "why" and "how" is not very well explained. Although brain damage can be linked to it.

Another thing this show gets completely wrong is the fact that psychopaths are actually capable of living a normal life without any criminal activity. There are plenty of clinically diagnosed psychopaths living a normal life. Do they feel emotions? No. Can they live normally? Yes. So the fact that the characters seem to believe that children of psychopaths don't deserve to live as they "will" turn into psychopaths themselves is bothersome as heck.

Also if you know the distinction between psychopaths and sociopaths (although most of these distinctions are very contradictory), you can actually safely place people like Han Seo Jun's character as sociopaths and not psychopaths. He is actually feeling emotions, which psychopaths can't whereas sociopaths can.

This is one of the most ridiculously direction show I've seen. Dafuq is up with the time skip every 10 minutes.

Quite explicit, not as explicit as European movies I've seen like Nymphomaniac/Antichrist, but explicit nonetheless. But that's not really what's so unsettling about this movie. What's unsettling is the topic/story it explores. Have to give props to the actors nonetheless.

Love Alarm S1 was a big mess so I have no expectations of it.

As for Kingdom, I honestly did not like Kingdom S2 at all, it felt convoluted and farcical compared to S1. So I don't have expectations of that either.

The final shows listed here, I have no idea what they're gonna be about so yeah they could al be great.

Thanks. I love the Shin-chan anime, it's hilarious.

Am I the only one who was reminded of Verivery's Minchan looking at him? I swear they look like brothers.

I really don't see this war people talk about. Most of the comments here is positive and liking the satire. And the arguments that exists is very civil so far.

Okay so I finished episode 1 and can I just say that I LOVE the shade against standard BL dramas and fujotshis and the satirical commentary against other BL dramas! lmfao This has got to piss off some people and I'm loving it!

I think it's a satirical commentary of BL dramas, esp if what you say about the Thai name is true. BL dramas often portray the effeminate guys in a very negative way.

Thai BL dramas overdo sound effects always. This isn't the only one to do that.

"when it's a drama not a movies" Not an excuse when there are other Kdramas with better CGI than this that are much lower budget in comparison.

Okay I gave it a chance, 4 eps in and this is a over the top mediocrity a la South Indian movies. Dropping it. Not even CSW can make me like this. It tries to take itself seriously so hard that it comes off as funny especially with how stupid the actions scenes are.

1. He's not 25.
2. Change your standard for 30 yos 'cause it looks like you're basing it off of flower boys.

Gene looks like Verivery's Minchan imo

Arthdal is a Studio Dragon production not Netflix. Netflix only has the rights to air it.

DP, My Name, All of Us Are Dead, So Not Worth It and Hellbound.

Those are gonna be top notch dramas. Not so sure about the Silent Sea, it could either me amazing or it could be a disaster (a la Sisyphus).

Netflix is investing huge amount of $$$ in original Asian content. Not just Korean ones but also South Asian (mostly Indian shows), Japanese etc. shows too. They know that's where the actual $$ is.

Korea made a South Indian movie LOOL

Actually more like South Indian movie territory not saas bahu Ekta Kapoor non-sense.
