Not convinced there will be another k-drama anytime soon that matches this one. The amazing chemistry between…
It got released in 2021 alongside Squid Game, Penthouse, It's Okay Not To Be Okay and some other popular kdramas, so it's logical that it went under the radar internationally. It was well-received in South Korea and even managed to bag 3 Baeksang Awards.
I really wish the series had been like the first episodes, when we were getting more scenes about the characters' growth and the company's development. The plot has been following the same pattern and it's getting tiresome and predictable. I still believe that Typhoon Family has a very interesting setting and it does a decent job exploring the crisis and its effects on people but I feel like the series has lost its personal and humane touch, besides some exceptions.
A tighter script would have benefitted the story for sure. It would have been nice if the secondary characters had gotten more scenes and if we had seen more of Tae Poong figuring out how to manage the company and navigate alongside the rest of the employees. Of course we still see that but the repetitive pattern of the story makes the drama less engaging at times.
I have watched the first four episodes and so far, the fourth one is definitely one of the best ones. We see more glimpses of Kim's kindness and humanity and the rest of the characters got more development. There was more balance in the story compared to the previous episodes and the ground has been established for Kim's growth.
Finished watching it today. I see why it's popular but I don't know, it didn't click with me that much. The second half dragged so much and the characterisation could have been better alongside some other aspects. I'll still watch the second season in order to watch season 3 though.
Maybe this is a silly question but how come neither Jin Pyo's mom, nor his sister remember Eun Su from the wedding? Didn't they know the bride's friends? Unless it shows that they didn't care about Hui Su and the people she surrounded herself with, that would be a logical answer.
I watched the first episode today and I think that this drama is for me. I enjoy stories about flawed characters who undergo personal development and Ryu Seung Ryong never misses to deliver. Looking forward to watch the rest.
The plot has been going in circles and some people want to see more of the characters' personal growth. I think that if the next episodes will offer something better, it will definitely bounce back.
