the person creating multiply account to bash the actor and likes it with their multiply account is so funny and…
It's so obvious, considering their likes are always about the same amount. But the dedication though, to make that many accounts, they're mentally ill.
You are mistaken if you think fans only care about his looks and not his acting. Just because you don't like his…
Do you know why she said this to you? Because she herself has numerous account to give herself the same amount of likes. Loser and hater behavior I'll say.
I said it before I will say it again: Chaeunwoo CANNOT act! I don't care if you people like him because you think…
Say the one who bombarded tens of comments here and screamed wolves when everyone called her out. Hater gonna hate, but no one really think he can't act.
I hope cha eunwoo will learn acting now. Still quite bad. He stood out among the whole main cast and not in a…
Weird, considering your comment isn’t exactly constructive or meaningful either, and it’s also full of random hate. He's good to me, and he actually balanced the rest of the actors from looking TOO much with their "extra" acting.
I think we don’t talk enough about how unforgivable the grandma actually is. Sure, maybe she didn’t know the full extent of the cruelty happening inside the experiments, but she still funded experimentation on children under the guise of an orphanage in hopes of finding a cure for Chaeni’s heart condition. Ha Wondo got jailed but she's free?
And when the Child of Eternity ended up brain-dead and there was an opportunity to transplant THE Eternal Heart, she took that chance and CHOSE her beloved granddaughter as the recipient, no one else, no other choice. The guilt clearly wasn’t strong enough to stop her when it came to saving Chaeni BY ANY MEANS POSSIBLE. That’s what makes it so morally disturbing to me.
And yet, all she can really offer the surviving children is a sorry and a table filled with home-cooked food? Meanwhile, Horan’s passing remark and Junmo’s situation basically confirmed that she only helped children who hadn’t been experimented on yet. With all her money, influence, and resources, she seemingly never truly tried to find, rehabilitate, or help the children who were already permanently damaged by the experiments like Horan. Director’s TMI even said she survived by becoming a masseuse. A blind masseuse.
I think a lot of people forget that he was never really one of the “good guys” to begin with. He was fundamentally…
Totally disagree. That analogy is so off. The drama’s conflict is built around systemic tragedy, survivor’s guilt, INHERITED CONSEQUENCES, and morally compromised people trying to survive inside that system. Those are not the same thing at all.
THIS IS NOT JUST IRRATIONAL CRUELTY FOR THE SAKE OF CRUELTY.
Wunderkinders were experimented on and permanently damaged under a project funded by Chaeni’s grandmother FOR CHAENI, and she still ended up benefiting from a heart transplant connected to that same project. Like her, their lives are also numbered, but unlike her, most of them have spent their entire existence suffering physically and psychologically without a rich grandma to fall back on. Grandma was and will never be one of the “good.” Now, that doesn’t mean Chaeni personally deserves punishment for something she never chose, but doesn't that create an inherently unfair situation where one side continues suffering from the aftermath while another privileged one still benefited from it?
Then you add the fact that her condition could reverse their side effects and potentially save ALL OF THEM in the long run. Doesn’t that suddenly make the situation far more morally complicated than a simple “good vs evil” scenario?
So the more accurate analogy would probably be:
“Would I sacrifice one person I’ve only known for a few weeks, whose grandmother was largely also responsible for all of this, if it could potentially save several others (including myself) while also helping me find my long lost mother whom I’ve been searching for over the past 20 years?”
Lee Unjeong was fundamentally Chaotic Neutral, definitely not one of the good guys. His main goal was never justice or heroism. He’s also notably the only main character actually willing to kill when necessary while the trio still operates under the “just knock them out” mindset, which says a lot about where he stands morally compared to the others. He just wanted to survive, bury his past, and live the remaining of his life quietly. That is until the doctor offers information about his mother in exchange for finding the Child of Eternity.
From the beginning, he doesn’t even care if the lab is still operating. This was never just about some childhood trauma he wanted closure for. It’s about someone desperately trying to understand why he is alive. He clearly has survivor’s guilt, and in his mind, finding the mother he forgot, the mother who abandoned him, the mother he only just discovered is still alive, might finally give his existence some kind of meaning or salvation.
If you look at his actions through that lens, you'll understand why he could emotionally distance himself even when there was a possibility that Chaeni might actually be the Child of Eternity. But honestly, I think part of him already suspected she wasn’t anyway. He knew the Child was supposed to be a boy. AND LOGICALLY, he's not about to drop what he has been looking for 20 years just for someone he met just a few weeks, especially for someone whose grandmother was directly responsible for the suffering he and countless other children went through. The coffee jelly was him giving her a small fighting chance out of that small sense of attachment. It wasn’t until later that he realized he had already become far more attached to them than he ever intended that he finally decided to get involved and fight against the lab. Better late than never, right?
The writer and director clearly put a lot of thought into the characters, themes, and symbolism, so I don’t think this dram is something that can be interpreted too shallowly DESPITE its absurd comedy. Then again, this was originally filmed as a 12- or 14-episode drama, so a lot of explanations and character details probably ended up on the editing room floor once they had to cut it down to 8 episodes. Netflix should have made it into Part 1 and Part 2 instead.
Let me get this straight... his only logic for confirming if she is the "Child of Eternity" is collapsing…

This is not a simple drama despite the comedy. The writer and director clearly put a lot of thought into the characters, themes, and symbolism, so I don’t think it’s something that can be interpreted too shallowly.
i have a doubt.. why didnt the 3 main guys have any side affects from the powers they got? everyone else had some…
The directors mentioned that the trios will eventually show side effects the more they used their powers, but since the villains need to perform daily miracles for the cult, their side effects progress faster.
I hereby pronounce Cha Eunwoo the best-looking Korean actor.
I’ve known him since his idol days because of his reputation, but just like one of the characters mentioned: I thought he had already peaked visually, turns out he somehow became even more handsome with age.
Aged like the finest wine.
I guess that’s what the Chinese entertainment industry calls someone with a very long flowering period. Seriously, I think he’ll probably still look good even with a beard when he'll get much older.
I really hate Cha Eun Woo's character Lee Un Jeong in here. I know that they needed to discover their powers but…
Are we even watching the same drama? The trio torment each other, poor Ro Bin. Did we not watch Chae Ni and Gyeong Un constantly beating him up to manifest his power? If anything, I feel like the trio tormented Un Jeong more. They literally forced him into arm wrestling and abandoned him in the middle of nowhere.
I’m so getting attacked for this but am I the only one who doesn’t really feel Park Eunbin’s performance here? Whenever she has to act quirky or fun, all I can hear is “LOOK AT ME, I’M ACTING.” Like she’s doing too much. Like her performance feels especially unfocused and all over the place. I think she is an amazing actress, and she can absolutely carry the emotional scenes in this drama more serious and toned down moments, but her comedy moments just isn’t hitting for me.
More than the leads, I was more impressed by Choi Daehoon instead.
I felt like the drama could’ve easily become way too scattered and chaotic if it wasn’t for Cha Eunwoo’s character and performance grounding everything. Half the time, it genuinely felt like watching him babysit three giant overgrown toddlers that constantly needed to be reined in before they burned the entire town down. Love their dynamics.
Oh brother...The gap in acting abilities is so so apparent when Cha Eunwoo goes head to head against all these…
I don't know. Cha Eunwoo performance actually makes me feel something this time. He improves leap and bound, so I don't know what you're talking about.
CHA EUNWOO CAN ACT!!!
