Will Chloe be so cold when Min Ju comes close? Hm... doesnt seem like it. One handshake or a hug and she is toast. ... Oh she recovered in next ep LOL
Chloe actress is pretty good

I checked this out and dropped. it is so hyped up and acting is so ... fake, and the dialogue is ... silly. Like a typical cdrama. Bye

flashy fireworks -like scenes, the whole drama is like watching a photo album with pretty pictures, whizzing by fast. The acting is so fake, THERE IS NO MEANINGFUL DIALOGUE, there is no humor, and the whole thing is super crude - but flashy looking. OK at least that is better than Hollywood violence and s.x, but ... that's not it. It is just mass manipulation and dumbing. Reflects real life so well.

Chinese are definitely interested in taking over the industry, it is a huge amount of money. They copycatted kdramas and even have huge cdrama productions - like Pursuit of Jade - but .... it is so ... crude.
Very childish dialogue and fake acting. No humor or anything finer. But who cares, right... ? cdramas look like a fireworks show, one bombastic image after another, and the audience globally already has no focus and is not able nor willing to watch more than pretty pictures whizzing by fast. The Big Brother does NOT have to use violence to rule over ppl :) Some substances and some pretty pictures is enough.

The age of living in the Matrix and Idiocracy, with some Equilibrium and They Live :) (these are american movies done before 2006, when anything intelligent coming from the usa stopped. This is the fate of media that suits the owner of the sheep herd).

Seems like someone is REALLY determined to bring the ratings for First Man down. It went up to 7.4 yesterday and then back to 7.3 today. AND it coincides with the publication of Korean list of most popular dramas. Since MBC did not advertise this drama well, it is still #7, and KBS advertised Pearl in Red well so it is #4. But ... this drama is actually better and should climb up. How come ppl are rating it down now... ? Interesting, isnt it.

Yeah I dropped Eagle Brothers bc it stalled it was utterly useless.
Most weekenders after 2020 were a flop. Only Iron Family (until almos tthe end) and somewhat Beauty and Mr Romantic had anything worth watchin

Recipe for Love is a masterpiece in the making and you should watch it, it is #2 on the most popular list in Korea

I wasnt even talking about that. So forget it

That is what I wrote, and you missed it lol That is one of the key points of my argument.
**** READ ***** before you answer.

I checked it out since you praised it so much, but to me it looks like a regular cdrama, very hyped up overly dramatic and with really fake acting, and silly dialogues. Like a typical cdrama. I quit :)

"Fan Chang Yu wields her butcher’s knife on the battlefield, searching for justice and her husband" wow that's a character!!!!

I udnerstand, smart characters make for a more exciting and smarter drama.
Unless it is done with total humor nad mockery. with super hype music, like Mad Concrete Dreams lol or in a sexy dark noir style like Climax lol
Check them out

Ah I underestimated BH lol He was super clever in ep 64 getting his way into Dream group
But then he backing out on CEO Cha was **not** smart :) Those two dummies park the car in front of her house and sit there... ????
As for fashion - wow those low heel leopard slippahs that CEO Cha wore with the gray suit - wow
And YM's brown/cream pantsuit - wow
I also liked YM in khaki silk and lighter khaki coat. The fancy top with jeans is also swell.
Baek Ho looks good in "yuppie" clothes khaki slacks and top
I think FL actress as a person really likes the Jun Ho actor, she lit up in scenes with him

Thanks for this comment, I really appreciate it. KBS is a big name and has had family dramas forever. MBC seems to be the new kid on the block. They made Woman WHo Swallowed the Sun which was ... ahem... low IQ drama :)
KBS2 made Queen's HOuse - pretty good drama after ep ... 25? - and then the FL from there ended up as FL in MBC's First Man. I am following HER :) She always a part of a great cast. Her ML in First Man is really fun, a great actor and a great reasonably realistic script for him. The villain is an amazing actress and drives me bananas with her slimey flippant voice LOL and there are many good actors in there

KBS2 went into heavy drama and revenge. A Graceful Liar was totally Kardashians, so trash, II watched for 2 veteran actors who were amazing, but could not take it anymore and dropped, FL actress was a piece of wood

Ooops yes :) thanks I corrected it. I will call him Half Brother just to make sure I dont slip. He FEELS older wiser smarter more common sense more grounded more MATURE than Min Jun, who is totally a man child

Ah you totally MISSED EVERYTHING I WROTE so I give up on you
I didnt say that the actor was old or boring
I said the SCRIPT MADE HIM ACT THAT WAY

So please dont waste my time. Bye

Maybe I missed the title but there is a drama where a woman finds her husband with her best friend in bed. I thought thta was marry my husband.

Queen's House has ML having 2, and Pearl in Red too, and I can think of others. THEY EXIST

Nah my mom watches Turkish series LOL Recipe for Love cannot even compare :) There are other good ones, like Iron Family (until almost the end), Once Again, My Father is Strange, All about my mom, and maybe Five Enough

First Man has better acting, to be honest, the FL actress is phenomenal and was great in Queen's house, and a whole slew of great actors comes with her, always, and plot that is more sophisticated, so it is a quality drama, like a weekend family drama but with some more crime...

I watch Pearl in Red bc it is 1000% local Korean it does not even try to appease Western audience and so to me it has a great value I do NOT wish to see one more plasticized thin "rich young and pretty" stick figure :)

Omg ML from Love So Divine, 2004, one of my favorite ever movies!!!!
How come he still looks the same, 15 yrs later... ??? wow

Ough it is disappointing that Graceful Liar was #6... that drama is trashy imo the plot just doesnt go anywhere. There are some excellent actors but FL cannot act and her script is just ... trash she says the same thing with the same facial expressions from ep 1 to 69 ... when I dropped it LOL

oh yeah those are a LOT more advanced points. i wrote a very basic synopsis
So yes those are excellent questions :) Let me watch and form my opinion, I havent seen ep 2 yet
