So I took a peek of your completed list, lol... seems you have watched a lot of good political dramas. From your PTW, I recommend "The Imperial Coroner". WandereR and I also wrote a recap article about it (no main plot spoiler). I heard the Korean Designated Survivor is also very good but I haven't watched it. I wrote a CW article on Legally Romance, but since you like to binge-watch, just wait till it finishes next week (8 April). Not in your PTW list: Fall in Love, a Republican Era drama. There is one that is underrated: City of Streamer. It seems people were watching it as a romance (like Fall in Love), hence in the mid way turns to 'political' since FL executes her revenge plan. Read the reviews/comments first if you doubt it.
I really like Nam Joo Hyuk's recent acting in his dramas since 2018. I just hope in the future he get's better…
I love Jo Jong Suk too, he is one of Korean actors I watched a lot (in 6 shows). But it seems like the ones here have played in Kdramas that have been super popular on MDL, at least once in their acting careers.
If I may ask - what parts of i am not a robot wouldn't pass censorship?
I think it will be in the robot development, they have to tweak the original story to pass the censorship. Chinese sci-fi dramas sometimes are confusing with editing or ending. I watched the trailer that is like the summary of the story lol. It looks like the way he finds out that she's not a real robot is different than in INAR. Besides, the addition of the orange orchard is interesting because it's not in the K version. We'll see...
Thank you for this article. Well now I might just give it a watch. Tbh I was kinda interested cuz of Song Zuer…
So I watched till Ep 24. The 'time travel' is the same as in the novel. She is in an accident, falls into a coma (1 month I think), wakes up, and the school time she experiences is in a dream. How the facts are actually related in the dream is explained by the neurosurgeon later. Interestingly, there are facts that she doesn't know prior to the dream/coma but happen in the dream. It's the same like in the novel.
The translation (in English) is so very well done, you'll feel like the translator wrote the novel! It's not like…
OK... I watched till Ep 24... so this is my take why the characterization in the drama (D) is better than in the novel (N): - D: Qian Wei and Chong Wen was a couple in the past, broke up in the present. N: They are never a couple. This is better in the drama, although it seems a love triangle but emphasize Lu Xun's quiet love and support to Qian Wei all along, even though she has had a boyfriend. - D: Qian Wei's dad passed away. N: He is alive. Why better in drama, although it's heartbreaking, it shows more her parent's love to each other (an example for a long lasting love). - D: Lu Xun's parents met Qian Wei in the her dream and are supportive to their relationship. N: They never met Qian Wei in her dream only later when she wakes up and has a relationship with Lu Xun - D: Xi Zin is a kind and real friend. N: Xi Zin is the villain who tries to break her apart from Lu Xun. - D: Qian Chuan and Shi Yun becomes best friends in the dream and later a couple. N: In the dream they're never best friends/couple. They just bicker.
