Call it a gut feeling based on the recent accusation and the rebuttal issued by her agent - which had guilty written all over it. I'm disinterested in this actress, I've never seen anything she's in, I'd never heard of her - I'm in a position where I don't care if she's guilty or innocent, and I find her guilty. It's not personal. I must have been reading different articles to you. From what I read there were 7 accounts, 4 unreliable, 2 reliable, 1 very strong witness. I'm no expert, what I read has not been verified, it was written in Dispatch. My opinion is based on the initial report and rebuttal. It's only my opinion.

Yes I know Dispatch said that about some of the accusers. I didn't know there were 8, where did you read that? I guess some were fake and others easy to pay off.

Jang Hyuk from your list 👍, a great and versatile actor. Wasn't he offered Secret Garden at one point? Gong Yoo too afaik. I wonder if they regret turning it down, I couldn't imagine anyone except Hyun Bin, so great. I wonder when Hyun Bin will make a return to dramas.

I was being deliberately obtuse, it doesn't capture her likeness. Everyone else is recognisable.

Dispatch has assigned several reporters to investigate, it's not only the transcripts.

It discarded the reports of 4 informants due to unreliable and conflicting statements.

There are 3 informants remaining whose information is reliable, one in particular. Dispatch is not backing down. As part of its research it found a report in the past which appears consistent with the new reports.

As far as I can tell, Dispatch offered a deal to the actress/agency that they'd print a feature sympathetic to her side if she admitted to the claims.

Meanwhile the actress's agency has said it's going to take it to court and sue. It sounds like an intimidation bluff to me, true colours are being revealed. It will be interesting to see what happens next. Unless they're confident of silencing the accusers I don't see how they believe they'll have a chance in court - instead they could dig their hole a little deeper.

If that's the case why did she make such bizarre statements to the press about this particular accusation? It made her sound guilty. Strange choices of words.

Where's Han Hyo-joo gone, dead already?

Yes. I'll ignore. What am I even doing on this page?

Just as the world's got sick to death of superheroes? I hope not, the hero concept makes me feel physically sick. The grounded idea behind Moving is a bit like the American drama Heroes from 20 years ago. Series 1 was pretty interesting. Then they made a second season - with the clear motivation to just keep making seasons, they kept increasing the abilities (big mistake, repeated even to this day with every single superhero genre) and it really turned into a giant turd. I hope Moving just finishes gracefully, I know it won't, but it should.

Aigoo. His career changed after Gong Shim, less than 10 years ago - apart from his acting skills and charisma, he also showed great generosity towards Bang Min-ah. I might have misinterpreted an inference that he's shallow, it's the opposite - his dramas over the past 7 years often don't have a romantic heroine, and all have well formed female characters of certain ages - because that's just how old they are in the drama. The actresses are beautiful. If you look at Ji-won's track record it's similar to NM, many of her male co-stars are younger than her.
(Marking this as a spoiler so it folds up, long chats are boring.)

Yes a lot of things happened to her, I wasn't going to mention any... now that you've opened the can... She was threatened by the president of South Korea too wasn't she? The Gil Ra-im incident was chilling.
And fans appeared to turn on her (not real fans, not anti-fans, something else I think).
Did you see the depiction of the brother in Chocolate? I wondered how hard that must have been for her, seems like she wanted to communicate something from her heart, it felt close to home. That was a strange drama though, I've never seen so many disasters beset the leading lady. If they made a second season she'd finish up a deaf mute in a wheelchair with a keyboard and a Stephen Hawking mouth pipe, an eye patch, one arm and a wooden leg! 🤕
Ha Ji-won hwaiting! 🫰👊

We don't, we're chewing the fat 🤗

So Ji-sub, I agree with. It's been a long time since Bali... with some unresolved business to put right!
Can't agree with your reasoning about NM, I think he'd make his own decisions, age not being the deciding factor - it's just that two established stars make the drama a little more expensive, isn't it?

She's become an enigma like old fashioned movie stars. I like that. I don't know what sns she uses but have seen a few glimpses on her Haewadal YouTube channel occasionally - for example, a while ago she appeared to open up a bit, there was this nice piano teacher... I never thought much of it, it just occurred to me after your comment that he could have been a close friend, and unfortunately she's quit piano now!

Who would we like her to work alongside...?Depends how the roles are set up in the drama, difficult to know without an idea of the tone and synopsis.... sounds like it might be a light crime caper - a bit like her role in Life Risking Romance, which was fun?
Someone who'd be a great costar, whatever the theme, would be Namkoong Min, I'd love to see them work together.
Anyone know which Network/OTT is going to sponsor it... would give us a clue to the production level too - as in budget 💵!

That's great news, can't wait, looking forward to hearing more about both projects! I hope they keep the drama title just as it is, it has a sleuthy ring to it "Murder Case of a Visiting Tutor in J Apartment" 🕵️‍♀️

Edit: speaking of titles .. why not call the movie Bigwang any more? It adds the element of curiosity, like a box you want to open, or an item in a shop you want to touch. Portrait of a Family sounds a bit dull.
Pawn should have been called 'Dambo' for the same reasons. And it sounds like porn... never say this to your wife: "I'm taking the kids to watch Pawn". Heigh, ho.

I feel you replied emotionally because I didn't like the drama that you like, fair enough. An unreal situation? What is real then? We know they're not really driving their cars or getting on a real bus in dramas - so why not just get into a cardboard box and shout "vroom!"? You mean to say they were only pretending to jump off the building? Your argument undermines all discussion about fictional drama and film - all of which is unreal - I'm inferring it's not an intelligent argument.
The murder of Si-heon... that was a truth in the drama - and too complicated for the insufficient processing power of Min-ju's pointless brain to believe even when she was talking to herself, stupidly, in front of a mirror... no that's clearly not what I was referring to at the moment she wanted to jump - give her a complex conundrum about the continuum? No. That would be even stupider than using philosophy to coax her down. You're making straw man arguments for no apparent purpose, I've put forward a critical point of view, the issues you raised are irrelevant to it.
I'll repeat something I already implied: I stopped paying attention to the show when the suspension of disbelief evaporated. I also stated I couldn't even remember if we were told what happened to the suicidal losers. There's no utility in answering as if I didn't say it. And making deliberately false assumptions about what I said is a type of gaslighting.

They killed his song too. Despite playing it far too often, I've already forgotten the tune. I remember his intonation was off. Quite a morbid undertone to this drama, maybe they picked his song because he was also suicidal. Sorry - I'm saying things which are not nice, I think it's because I found the losers In-gyu and Min-ju so annoying, such feeble, selfish and shallow minds that put the burden of their suicides onto others. So annoying. Wow, I hated those two, I can normally feel sympathy but not the way this drama was written.

I don't think I'd buy it. That's the key isn't it? It has to be believable. They'd have different memories.

It's called the suspension of disbelief. Maybe you're easily amused, for me that scene ruined it. With time travel the general rule is to make every effort to limit complexity - otherwise the story will tie itself in knots and break apart its own logic - everything suddenly deflates. I mean, once everything got reset there should still be a psychopathic younger brother on the loose in the past too. I can't remember if it even covered what happened to the pitiful losers In-gyu and Min-ju either, maybe because they're totally irrelevant. I'll also say... if you want to stop a girl jumping to her death you have to inform her that the boy she loves will also die - yes, you tell them meaningful lies to change their mind, not just stand there spouting philosophical nonsense, she'd jump from sheer boredom.
