Ah this is fascinating how some americans and others are hashing out Israel et al vs. Palestine.... So, I have ONE LINE THAT WILL SHUT THEM ALL UP:
SO AMERICANS, START BITCHING ABOUT TERRORISM IN THE USA What is happening with Native Americans? Let's start with that.... What's happening with the democracy in the USA? the immigration raids? cutting of education, arts, etc funding? All the common money spent on wars? How many wars is USA officially in now? Scenes of Agent Kim in his serial killer double-agent job... have american politics as the backtround... so discuss american politics first... before you tell other ppl what to do lmao
gyeol for not saying or talk about his trauma/problem to eunae is really weird .... why not talking about it ..?
yeah as long as he is such a slimey secretive rat, he is NOT a good pair for EA G irritates me and also G actor irritates me, too often he fakes acting and to me that is like nails on chalkboard
jeongran ,, so annoying and violent ... she never learned to communicate with her own family ...
I dislike that actress bc she is the same in most of her dramas. I already watched her as exactly this kind of character before... at least 3-4 times.... Yawn...
Even when professor is in jail, he still teaches like he always did! 😂😍 i don't like the fact that he is…
Hm that made me think... remember how the infatuated professor said to his wife that he was just enduring the last 25 years and was bored and suffocated? how come that topic was never on the agenda for 25 years??? It is the fault of him AND his wife.
Professor was a "decent guy, a good family man" and then went haywire when his dormant passion genuinely ignited with HY and he fell in love.
So we saw that Professor is genuinely a decent guy to some degree, however, he is a blind guy with shady morals when it comes to getting what he wants and we see how he got there - his wife kept him on the leash and their marriage was super.... boring and empty. How come his wife did not feel it even once in 25 yrs that he is bored to death? Have they ever talked or spent time together???? obviously - not. Hos wife owned him like he was her dog. AND HE CONSENTED TO THAT.
Imo the message is: Food for thought about what can happen with supposedly "decent spouse" in a marriage that grows stagnant and stale and then spous(es) cheat their way out of that hole instead of trying to rekindle or resolve the marriage
The ancient topic of "how to stay interesting to each other after 30 yrs of marriage". It is a very simple but very difficult answer - keep growing as individuals and together.
This is some ideas for "few changes that would have made the drama so much better" - see the spoiler
1. Fix the pacing!!!! DumbMi is kept dumb forever to the very last episode!!!!! omg that makes the drama as thick and slow as molasses... Make her smarter faster, and then have back and forth between her team and HY team, so that both teams win and lose many times
2. Fix the pacing!!!! Seo Rim is kept on the screen in minimal quantities. But she is the spunkiest funniest character in the whole drama!!!! So ... if it is too tough to film SR and JM in the same scene, then send DumbMi to a cooking school in the USA and focus the drama on Seo Rim for a while... Make SR a lot bigger participant in the drama
3. Dont keep it too cartoon-like simple! Add the complexity! Make characters more layered. Every character here is so one-dimensional. Make them more complex. Baek Ho has to be made more complex. OK the dude is educated, smart, honest, loyal, and good hearted, and a nice person overall. Fantastic. But then he was made into a robot that blindly serves JM. WTH, BH IS NOT A SUPERMAN. Make him more human. Make him stand up to JM, have doubts, self reflect, etc. The way BH is written, he is incredibly simple and dumb, cartoon caricature "good guy", and that is the waste of character and waste of plot.
4. Use adequate actors for key roles! JH role was THE ONLY COMPLEX CHARACTER and the drama messed it up and gave the role to a very very very unskilled actor. That was a fatal flaw. It killed the drama.
5. Dont make it too dumb!!!! Dont make the plot out of total dumbness of the characters. Make them a little smarter. Then you can create a LOT more plot out of that, bc those smarter characters will be doing more interesting and varied things.
6. Make the dialogue count! make the monologues on self reflection! SHOW SOME CHARACTER GROWTH AND SELF REFLECTION!
7. Add some romance! BH and JM are supposedly a pair, but we never saw them even talk as a pair. Every real couple has get-togethers where they talk about their day, where they share about themselves and their thoughts, gossip about others, make plans, listen to each other, and show each other love. At least call each other honey and say I love you and hold hands. This drama had ZERO of that. BH kept kissing JM's as# and she stayed as cold as ice.
I dont see First Man on the MDL schedule for Friday... SO EVERYONE WHO SURVIVED THIS TORTURE MARATHON, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! After following this and dissecting it in detail, we are qualified to write / evaluate scripts :) This drama could have been so much better with just a few changes.
So anyways, WHAT THERAPEUTIC METHOD WILL YOU USE TO RECOVER FROM THIS DRAMA, AND HOW ARE YOU CELEBRATING THE END OF THIS?
As predicted ... JHO and Mom in a showdown. Poetic justice! At this rate, I don't think there's anything else…
Gosh, Graceful liar was 100% trash. Just before that, daily Queens House with the same FL was a very decent drama after ep 25 and actually a LOT better than this one I started watching this one bc this FL was also FL in Queen's House but oh boy this drama was mostly wasted, such poor script

whose goal is to dumb down and to KILL any traces of genuine humanity
Gay ppl are just one small group of minorities, how come nobody is promoting... other forms of homosexuality etc? indigenous ppl? poor ppl? etc
Obviously it is a bunch of wealthy powerful gay males behind this, who are also into ...... genociding Palestine, .... fill in the blanks....
Well then why not lmao That will force her to give to the man of her life. MH already has a lot more integrity than at the start of the drama.
G irritates me and also G actor irritates me, too often he fakes acting and to me that is like nails on chalkboard
