how is he a judge/lawyer with a high school diploma? that’s one thing I don’t get. no university???
previously south korea had a system which facilitated anybody irrespective of their educational background to enroll and train at the JRTI to become a lawyer. it has been phased out since i believe 2017 or so
ep 4 build up was great, the case dealt with a rarely addressed topic but the conclusion was rather disappointing. it almost felt akin to a jarring tonal shift at the end. a way too romantic ending which fails to address the hows and whys of the case was inconsistent with how the whole set up was done over the two eps.
Ahh I was obsessed but idk what happened after ep 8 that I dont want to finish it 😭 but I also dont want to…
same I'm stuck at ep 8 too 🥲 that ep was just too sad i decided to take a break for myself to watch something light or romcom but just couldn't go back. tho i do really wanna finish it for kyj's acting
well I do hope the writer handles the next arc, where they will inevitably end up together, well (with as much care possible in this typea storyline) so it doesn't just reduce the entire thing to more delulu for fans where they think they have a chance with their idol if they save them from some grave danger/accusation. we have already had that once.
the drama keeps spitting these truth bombs that ALL delulu fans should listen to! the writer is clever with her lines and sena's character is self aware. a popular irl idol saying those lines makes it hit home too lol.
The media is already reporting social media backlash to the trailer. https://www.koreaboo.com/news/iu-byun-woo-seoks-k-drama-trailer-hit-scathing-criticism/
it will be a ratings and buzz hit regardless imo. plus we can't judge from a 40 second teaser; it could just be a weird cut
it's on netflix but they're not promoting it as it's not their original drama and they also have no exclusive…
oh maybe because it's not exclusive then, cuz netflix usually posts atleast the teasers/previews on their sns handles even for non originals. see the recent pro bono for instance. it's available on Viki as well in my region, so it being non exclusive might be the reason for the zero promo

probably is a futile hope but oh well.
