You think he's stupid?

Tbh she's only just learnt something that she would have already found out years ago... that if the speaker doesn't believe their own words, it sounds like a lie. Guilt can belie the truth.

You haven't offered a criticism. Arbitrarily calling it a junk drama is not a criticism... say why... then it's a criticism. Your comment is worthless.

Bye then 👋

It might appeal to young male virgins. It looks like the gap is going to be the main topic of the drama, so those issues you listed will be its bread and butter. If they overcome all those hurdles and live happily ever after... that's the least likely outcome and a bit 🤮, such romances occur often and don't last long.

Can you remember to have a point when you post a comment? Those are just platitudes.

Lee Jae-wook was the best thing in that Gil Bok-soon movie. I can see good things in the future for him.

No, it isn't a classic character development, whatever that means. I can't stand people who say "character arc" either, just meaningless buzzwords to try and sound cool. Any protagonist needs some redeeming features from the start, this dude's got none and he's an idiot... there won't be anyone with common sense (or a heartbeat) left to see if he turns into a nice guy.

There was one less than 6 months ago about speed skaters. It was better than this.

It's stupid all the way through episode 1. Characters in the sports business saying "this guy's the best" multiple times, then "the guy" turns out to be a naive idiot doing stupid things for bad reasons - as if it's his first day being a sports agent - and he's not likeable in any way. Talk about how not to write a protagonist.

It just makes him trash and also an idiot. Not the type of character to keep you hooked for the journey.

Not for me. Apart from the fact that I didn't like a single character, even his mum, there's nothing more heinous in sport than coaxing a boxer out of retirement. I'm not interested in the struggle, the journey, the ups and downs or the redemption of shitty people. It churns my stomach, no thanks. Why watch 11 episodes that make you feel like shit? Just so they can show you the opposite side in episode 12? Like sucking on a lemon just to make oranges taste sweeter? That's a con trick, not good drama.

Random. I wish Viki would stop subtitling the song lyrics. Anyone agree? I feel like they're assaulting me with words when I could just enjoy some beautiful pictures in peace.

Oh that's original 🥱

That's a Japanese porn plot right there, it tends to work well when it's about sex. But the more a drama tries to make it believable, unless it's a high quality production with a very good narrative, one ends up thinking... what's she doing with that kid? This one's sounds like a shallow synopsis - like a training drama for a young actor, funded by his own agency.

I notice there's an article about each of the supporting actors being scene stealers and so on. They are all magnificent, but it's absolutely impossible to steal any scene containing one, let alone both of Namkoong Min and Ahn Eun-jin. Impossible.

I like Hyo Joo's outfit, she looks elegant and chic. She's stylish. Lovely. She's standing behind the men on the cover but demands the attention. Tbh, without camera tricks if she stood next to Ryu Seung Ryong in those heels, she'd probably be above him.

This was the only weak point of the script. They briefly hinted it was 'Joo', but didn't follow up, and for good reason.... at the time she found out she was pregnant, when did she have time to heal from her surgery? Muri desho. There are more reasons, it would have undermined the narrative.

I saw your other post about the alley... didn't you think it was unusual though? The drunk man seemed to mistake her for someone he knew - more to find out later, maybe not lazy writing after all?

He was probably too busy filming his other dramas
