Addicted

Like two minutes of sex implied near nudity. A couple short scenes of drug snorting. Tons of violence. The violence gets it to the R on its own. The R ratings in indo-asia will typically be more true to standards than US or western shows. Their shows are directed at in net audiences (so kdrama (Not related to Netflix) have more reserved standards for violence, language and nudity, for their prime audience, asia) Of course R rated mdl type shows will step it up, but the main menu will avoid gratuitous nudity or bloody violence. Like when kdrama shows a murder by knife, the knife is blurred out so the rating can stay below an R. If the knife and blood are seen it slides into a PG17 or maybe an R. I personally go with the R rating, seems fair. Watch Yanin kick ass, true artistry.

Good show, great cast. Comments below are whoop. You'll really got pitched. Invested in the peoples and story. By that measurement, this show is a winner. I started cause Jang Hyuk. Loved him in Shine Or Go Crazy. Back to the binge.

I hope they keep the cast, the wait is kewl with me. Love Woo

I like Baek Ji Won, good to see her crushing it. Not getting chemistry outta this. The acting is good. The "i like you" theme feels false, the fluffy music is out of place. Good enough to watch.

Me too on who was who spy rings. Somebody needed to wear white hats. But overall, the acting and cast good.

I have only watched this 47 times. I still am awe struck be the fights, The stunts are fantastic. The stunt men are fantastic. Original chorography. The directing fantastic. My favorite martial arts movie. I love Yanin's qi and her verbal sounds. Unique like hearing Bruce Lee, you just know.

An R-rated motion picture may include adult themes, adult activity, hard language, intense or persistent violence, sexually-oriented nudity, drug abuse or other elements,

Gong Ma Ri is my favorite character, sexy, sly, and quirky. Love Yoo Ri. But Chae Hee Soo (Lee Min Young) story had me crying even thru the fun parts. Sometimes you kinda get where a kdrama is going to. Last episodes tie everything together. But they don't usually make me cry sad and happy at the same time. My cheeks are still wet. The journey to the end is not expected typical end. I will go into withdrawal now, and I just can't imagine watching any other show right now. If you look at the rating, stop and read how some of our MDL friends Feel.

Ok Adolf.

I'll just start with your dipshit math. Tens of thousands. What is that, 20, 30, 90 thousand? pick one. That is 7,300,000 in one year, at min. Gross would be 32,850,000. Einstein used imaginary numbers to solve his wrong theories. You ain't no Einstein. Between 5-10 mil people starv to death annually. A real number ain't possible, the nations are so violent stats don't work. Africa fixation. So your mother was a hippie. Sending table scraps to the millions of starving childs of Africa. Not to far to imagine your broke brain is from lsd fetile poisoning. "and I am still alive" you brag. Try a little harder maybe you can get over that. Suicide is a sin, only if you love God. Loving God makes you part of the family of Christ. Your false declaration of judgement does not supercede the greatest gift, grace. I don't know anything about Yoo. She loves God. I now see, in His concern, God's grace can be her safe harbor. Yoo's place is a done deal. Prayers are for the living. U got 30 secs, pray for those she addressed in her letter.

100% agree. I "spoiler" tag my stuff, but not here. Africa? Your taking the wrong meds. Why would anyone want to go to "Africa" to watch people starve? My brain is broke, I freakout, go wild, etc... But I am still human. Yoo suffered serious shit. I would rather she had found that one thing to motivate her to struggle on. Maybe she read butt munch comments from your kind and instead found cause to stop searching. What the hell is a suicide culture? Yea I gotta stop, getting cranked up.

Yea. Mostly uber gory. Blood every where. Bullying and lots of screaming. Each episode is a different unrelated story. I dropped it cause the stories are poorly written, imo. I also think an overall rating is not realistic. Each episode should be rated seperately. With that in mind, of the 4 I watched, I wouldn't any of them better than a 6.

Excellent. Writers put out an engaging storyline. Some of the typical kdrama we all love. Lots of fresh concept to hook and lock you in. "Twists and turns" build suspense. Enough mystery to make the opportunity for surprise. The writers kept this show within its boundaries, two hand clap here. Directors managed the sets and let the actors do their job. Great combo. "Predictable" if you mean it has in-laws (we know how that goes) a corrupt chairman (typical). So, if you get lost looking at the frame, you missed the DeVinci. 9/10

Yoo Ri (Eun Soo) has turned in another 10. The master of desperate shows thru out. Her charm, charisma, and beauty add levels of hope and smiles to the viewers. I am also thrilled with her romance with Ji Min. Slow, troublesome, joyful. The romance is heavily reliant on the story and actors' chemistry. Yoo Ri can have chemistry with a rock, so that was not an issue.

Go Na Hee (Woo Joo) is brilliant. Her performance competes with Yoo Ri for scene dominance. Happiness of youth, depression from life's shocking misery, character delivery worthy of an award.

Ju Eun (Se Mi) pulls off a perfect outcast. Mournful; and failed evil doings. She garnishes empathy as much as she garnishes anger.

Episode 1 to 16 is a long way, in a wonderful way. I teared many times, and one moment in episode 16 I held my breath. Please give me a kdrama ending. OH NO! don't end this way. After wiping my tears, I got to breathe again.

Good story, good directing, and good cast. Highly Recommend.

It just dawned on me. Yoo Ri is in 3 of my highest rated dramas.
Come Jang Bo Ri - 10
Becoming Witch - 9.5
Lie After Lie - 9
Yoo Ri mastered desperate, beautiful, and devious. Everything about her is right. Korea's most hated villian in 2014 to a vengeful victim in 2022.
All the expected kdrama ups and downs times three. "The crowd goes wild". Hats off to the writers and directors.
Ep 11 saw me tear up, laugh, and cheering for Ma Ri.
Hee Soo's story makes me cry. Lee Ming Young is so convincing I cry for her pain.
Poor pitiful Jin Ah has come to the end of herself. I hope last ep. gives her a good moment.
All in all ep 11 is destruction. I'll jump off a cliff if ep 12 don't give me some relief.

Good break from the norm. Great cast, good story. Whicked, fun ending. Predictable, yea some. Still the cast made the story engaging. Not beeoching, but I think most mdl dramas have a cookie cutter final episode. it's alright, the fl and ml normally end up together even if one has to be brought back from the dead. Good show, recommend.

Episode 32 makes me cry x4 now. Ep 32-36 are super duper cdrama. The death of White Snake, the crushing sorrow of Green Snake. Rebirth enables escape from the depths. Yet, even with Bai returning, Qing is struck with strife and overwhelming burdeon. Jin Ru Yi is a powerful presence. Pitiful, hateful, and in the end mournful. Episode 35, the death of Ru Yi, again captured my empathy. In the last final goodbye, sorrow and love equally pull at my heart. Episode 32 to the end is a great burdeon for me. Anyway, that being said, I love this show. Great cast and perfect sound track.

Sure could be viewed that way. MDL dramas tend to do the big wrap up all loose ends in last episode, no matter how silly it gets. This ending is like the writer wrote half of the last line.

Oops my bad. Missed spoiler alert on previous comment.

Oh Yeon Seo is my #1. I'm biased. The cast mains/support fantastic. Acting great. Story original to me. Will binge it now. I am a little writer peeved. Han felt like she was a support role, often. Out the gate uber bad sss. Then nothing. Hard for me to be critical of Oh in anyway, so writer gets my ire. For it's niche it is great.

I have finished with great emotional pourings. Woo is my second most loved character, right behind Jang Bo Ri. Park delivered more than possible. Many tearful scenes throughout kdramas. However, Park got beyond that limitation and created a character that always engendered emotional connections. The entire cast earned honorable mention. Kang Tae Oh shined. Every scene emitted chemistry. The love story overwhelmed me at times. This series is a ten, perfect, with exception of ep 2&3 (totally director/writer fault). I am suffering Woo withdraw syndrome. But now, the binge is on. Storylines bring to light the great struggle between honesty and deceit.
