I thought about it.
It's still preachy, flatulent and patronising - and logically disjointed. He can't take his mum up the mountain if he's in her body, she's gone. The series made no effort to explain what happened to the original souls btw. So he's taking himself up the mountain, pretending he's taking his mum, crying and feeling sorry for himself. Really, he was selfish all the way, they dragged out his self pity for a whole hour.
On the other hand, part 1, episode 2? (the one with Jang Seung-jo) was incredible, one of the best things I've seen.

Edit... P.s. I hope you're not saying the open ending was great? I thought it was mindless and as usual, made a farce of the whole show up to that point.

I'm looking forward to it, could be a lot of fun.

Yes, of course.

We know a little too much about H&M tbh. He wrote an autobiography, she did a pod cast, they both did a tonne of interviews and tip-offs to the tabloids and gossip rags, they also made a reality show, did Oprah, a bunch of public appearances. You're right, we can't really judge based on that 😉. Will be interesting to see how they're portrayed in The Crown on Netflix, will they be able to go all in, I wonder?

Thanks, good to know

This shows that you're a tiny bit affected by anti-Japanese sentiment.

Yes, I've only seen epi 1, you know more than me

Question for God.... God.... are you registered with MDL?
She has what it takes, that's for sure. Pretty face, proportions, personality is a little bit like Kristen Stewart, some inner turmoil going on under the surface - so acting will always be harder work for her, but she's good.

Edit, I should add, her disposition suited her perfectly in WOTM, she did well.

I like her... I loved all her support roles and 2FLs... I haven't liked any of the projects she's led so far, hope this will be the one!

I like him, good actor, I think he's a natural born entertainer

Depends if they built that entire town as the set - it looks too big to me. Also a lot of well known actors in the cast

Lily Alice, only one thing shocked me... no spoiler alert! 😉
From what I watched of epi. 1, Jo Han-chul was one of the actors that impressed me, he's good.

Well .. if your wartime adversaries continued to rub your face in it on a regular basis in a stereotypical fashion - the way we used to even through the 1970s, you might not think the same way. Austria and Germany have been contrite and respectful since the war. All sides have to show the same respect in order to move on - it just wouldn't work if other countries continually disrespected your efforts through mainstream entertainment... even if you acknowledge the sentiment, you probably wouldn't choose to watch.

I doubt it, we'll just have to deal with it. Populism and greed - there will be worse to come. There was a scene in one of The Avengers movies where Loki becomes the king, it was an analogy of the modern world - but for all intents and purposes it could have been a scene from ancient history, where the folly of populism has already been well documented. When the world starts to fragment, cohesion is the way to survive. Democracy is not the answer to everything, we've been brainwashed to think so... which in itself is a little ironic. How different are we from the Eloi (or Morlocks) in the book The Time Machine? I wonder.

Uncomfortable at times but by half way it was addictive with the spectacular appearance of Im Ji-won. Thanks to amazon prime for making it available.

Thanks for the tip 😆

Yes, I hear you. I fell asleep many times while watching. Ever do that? You doze off, wake up, rewind... then doze off at the exact same moments every time - it's like hypnosis!

He's playing a lawyer again. Strange Attorney Woo has super-boosted his popularity, he was excellent in it. Hope this goes well - jtbc makes some truly great dramas and also some bizarre train wrecks (no names, touch the arse of your pets, or whatever it was called, and strong woman bong soon part 2), let's hope it's one of the good ones.

If you only watch the first and last you wouldn't develop the necessary feelings for the characters to bring home the emotions.

That's poignancy. She's showing her love for his reincarnated self, which only came about through all the events that unfolded and his own deep, unrequited love. What a love story!
