I wasn't referring to the kiss scene of the 2 main leads, rather the bed scene of Dae Han and Dong Suk in the…
Oh I didnt see that preview. I cheer them on! They deserve it! They were in love ever since high school - and apparently were to cowardly to proceed - and now they can have it - go for it!!!!
With a dumpster fire drama like this, I would believe people making their first interactions(other than searching…
Hm then WHICH interactions matter for the overall perception? Reddit is whitewashed censored... Ok MDL is for fun but it is real comments :) You gotta monitor 300 mil potential USA viewers and so many European etc bc they got MONEY - dramas are already made for them.... plus S America, the rest of Asia, ... And I am sure there are trolls ... I caught some... and I am sure that some non-native speakers use AI ... For example, i found user oppa_ doing that, suddenly the posts became super eloquent. That user admitted using AI and then deleted the account ... and who knows what username they use now. I miss them bc their reviews were so super sharp and astute and I learned a lot (but sexist lol seems like it was a very sexist male)
The answer to ALL your questions is YES except for him knowing its her....both the boys end up falling for her…
Ok seated! How is she gonna pull it off that they dont know it is her... .. Are you watching First Man? there ... mom and lover can distinguish the identical twins :) that is the power of love :)
I love the actor. I’m so disappointed to hear this drama isn’t good. The plot sounded great and like I said,…
you will miss him, he acts so well!!!! IT IS A TREAT TO WATCH HIM. He connects to other actors and acts his part, and has so much nuance in his acting, it is superb acting. Just fast forward ONLY through his scenes. Esp he and Woo Ju are absolutely phenomenal. He and FL ... ough ... just watch him :) it is worth it.. He is an absolutely great actor and COMEDIAN :) he really really really nails the nuances and there is lots of it.
I nicknamed Jin-Ju Dimples, but Dumb-Belle would be more appropriate.
LMAO yes her talking cute with her lips puckered and meowing voice and being a goody goody damsel in distress ... She is straight from a 1950s movie Actually - you know what? She behaves like Marylin in Some Like it Hot except that she is not sexy
watching Jin Ju is a torture ... she is written DUMB, I hope Chloe will be smarter Min Ju is the worst. Min Ju is written DUMB, and the actor is a wooden doll. Send him to an acting school asap His half brother actor is a talented actor and is fun and saves the day, his acting is "for real" and he nailed his character Yu Na is super dumb too but luckily the actress is acting her part The evil CEO actor is a really good villain... the wives are boring bc they are always the same The plot makes sense to some degree - minus the dumbness - just improve the acting
Ah it is cooking!!! I iam having fun, acting is great and the plot makes sense. That dinner scene witih all the sharks circling was a RIOT :) If JM is smart she is gonna fess up to BH, she needs his help, she is a little goose now some random adjuma knows her deepest secrets???? and SR lies there all alone - brrrrr!!!!! - and BH loves JM, he recognized her :) how romantic :) And JH is on her tail now too... Without BH she will never get out of that mess on her own, that little good girl... ... 60 more eps...
ML is sooo cute and that is such a good actor, this drama is wasted on him. He is acting love so well and FL actress is like a piece of cardboard, there is absolutely no chemistry there, and the script is trash, so he oscillates between trying to b romantic sexy and lHER uncle taking care of her as a little kid.. Ough ugly. There is absolutely nothing sexy about the FL so the romance seems totally forced. ML actor is able to act it well but it is clear it is all fake and forced by the bad script.
And to be honest, I was glad someone called the FL to the carpet for always taking the easy way out and thinking only of herself and not of WooJu. I am really hoping this gets her to grow up and become more responsible. But all that should have happened in episode THREE - discussing how they are raising WooJu and getting better at it I am thinking how the script could be saved... FL had to go through her first love SML and her starting to work, and ML had to go through his dad, changing jobs, deciding to be a dad, and his brother trauma... BUT Woo Ju was happening that entire time so it has to be in parallel So perhaps ... ep 3-6 are for FL to start working and dump SML... and get together... then they deal with each other, raising Woo ju, then dad shows up, then the court hearing - which was looming since ep ... 3 .. and all that had to be all mixed up going on at the same time... ?? and SML had to find a time on the screen somehow too ..... and all sprinkled with taking Woo Ju to the parks... and it ends happily with getting custody in ep 12... dunno.. I am not a script writer... I just see - IT IS FILMED AS 16 EPISODES DRAMA but cut at 12 episodes.
does anyone know of any better family romance kdramas like this? I watched love scout and liked it. Like single…
Making family, Familyhood, Family by Choice, .... Sorry but not Sorry, My Familiar Wife - are all super fun ... melodrama My Wife is having an affair this week, ....
i am one of themi never review or rate any shows but this turned so dogshit, given what the plot was supposed…
Thank you for speaking up. I am curious about drama lists of such long-time watchers like you bc there must be tons of old dramas worth watching. But how to find them.. ? I found byrei.ink and she got some dramas that I would have never even tried but based on her other reviews, I am pretty sure I would like. So I am gonna check them out - Doubt, Chocolate, Yumis Cells, etc I realized that my account looked relatively empty - I have tons of review but not much dramas I watched - so I just put in some. Right now LOL
i am one of themi never review or rate any shows but this turned so dogshit, given what the plot was supposed…
Hm... Your account is full of dramas you watched and there is a timeline, so it looks like someone who uses MDL as a real user. Are you telling us now that you are fake??
The accounts I was talking about have NOTHING in their account. No dramas watched.... .... OR.. .they have like 5 dramas listed that they watched - on the same day :) I am not gonna call on them but if you go to reviews and click on user names, you will find them
i would NEVER watch something like drama on my own initiative. But right now as I was searching for something else, I found Squid Games Season 3 review by Rei - and she described Season 1 of this drama so amazingly that I am interested in watching it.
So I am going to post a link to her review bc nobody else analyzed it so deeply. Ppl tend to see it as a thriller and "fun" but in fact it is very deep.
This is the jist of what she said about Season 1: "Once upon a red light, green light, Squid Game burst onto the global stage like a Molotov cocktail tossed into the living room of late-stage capitalism. It was brutal, brilliant, and blisteringly clear: the system isn’t broken—it’s functioning exactly as intended, and it grinds the desperate beneath its boot. Season 1 wasn't just a show; it was a cultural autopsy. Equal parts thriller and thinkpiece, it painted desperation in high-contrast red and green and let us watch as humanity's worst systems played out as children's games with blood-slicked stakes."
Here is the link to the reviews, her comment is like 4th from the top, titled: Squid Game 3 – Capitalism’s Knife is Now a Plastic Spoon: https://mydramalist.com/771707-squid-game-season-3/reviews There is no direct link bc she is not a user here but went to her own blog byrei
Its necessary for this role too, we can see that her character doesn't eat and is mentally ill. Even in ep 4 her…
Omg I repeat myself zillionth time and I am DONE here - this is not an isolated incident for this particular actress, but something that keeps repeating and the MAIN ISSUE is how the eating disorders and trying to look thin has become the beauty standard.
So I leave you here, my dear, bc, I do not have the time to read your explanations that just gloss over what I said. I do not wish to be on this page one more second. Bye :)
There are like 5 pages of reviews of Our Universe on MDL. So I started reading the reviews ... *** Just out of curiosity, I clicked on user profiles of about 5 accounts that recently posted - and every single one I checked on is EMPTY ... which makes me think it is fake - but... The posts are eloquent and informative and all different ... so they seem genuine.
So I am intrigued now - who actually wrote all those reviews... ? Is it possible to AI generate all those "genuine" comments and to spam bot post them? What is the probability that my random sampling ran JUST into the empty accounts out of all genuine accounts? What are characteristics of genuine accounts? Are there so many genuine accounts that are empty... ??? I also found out that two of my fav commenters, Rei and oppa_ formerly _oppa, have ... disappeared. Maybe deleted their accounts? Rei went to byrei.inc I have no answers to these questions yet but this is something to think about.
And I am sure there are trolls ... I caught some...
