Not a thriller but a live webtoon! - Proof that strong silent types only cause damages

WRITTEN AFTER COMPLETING:
==========================
I thought this drama will be about father-daughter relationship, but heck no. It is about Agent Kim and his friends beating ppl up. So this is like a more sophisticated adult version of Weak Hero Class 2. Just fights fights fights

The father-daughter relationship starts in the dumps, they never talk, she is hostile, she keeps important secrets, goes out alone at night, etc, causes MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR trouble and then her dad beats everyone up to save her. Sure he saves her and they hug for a minute AND THAT'S IT. There is no character devopment. even the daughter said nothing changed lmao
and his new job definitely got things worse

Sure they had a few sweet moments at the reunion but then.. their life was the same. Well maybe she wasnt all that hostile. But they still dont talk and it feels ... empty. And his new job will create a lot of lying

AND YEAH I WAS QUITE BORED WITH THIS DRAMA. A LIVE CARTOON IS FOR KIDS. I want to see more character development and stuff like that, stuff that real grown ups like to watch. Not some stupid fights.

And for me to be happy about the father -daughter relationship. I wanted to see them doing stuff together and talking, not him going to get this "new job"

But again someone said, the webtoon is about Kim continuing in his spy life, not about father-daughter relationship.

Kim is gonna be an agent forever - and that is the fun part, and who cares for his daughter - is the message of this drama.

AND YESH THAT IS NOT THE KIND OF DRAMA I WANTED TO WATCH it is too shallow and childishly stupid

and I watched or fast forwarded to the end out of curiosity about what ppl like about this MAINSTREAM bologney and I certainly got my answers!!!!

Tthe father-daughter ended up about the same.. Sure they are not hostile anymore but we did NOT see anything that qualifies them as a good family.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WRITTEN AFTER EP 1: while i still naively believed that this will be about father-daughter relationship :( Apparently, the webtoon is NOT about father-daughter relationship but about agent Kim working as a spy
==================
I like ep 1 as a start. I do not see this as a fighting drama, so if it goes that way, I will be disappointed. I see this as the generic issue of bad parenting. If the drama resolves that, i will consider it a masterpiece. Sure add some fighting as a side dish, but the main issue is PROPER PARENTING. Also it will be really fun to see Ji Sub act more than just John Wayne, Ji Sub is a cutie so it will be fun to see him as a proper father. In ep 1, he is a John Wayne strong and silent dinosaur and a parental failure.

This drama is essentially a story of bad parenting, the doting parent who NEVER talks with their kid and never takes the time to actually RAISE the kid. Kids need more than just food on the table...
There are many teenage kids in this drama, and they are all total clueless morons who lack any common sense and keep causing problem, unfortunately the entire drama is a product of bad parenting
NONE OF THESE KIDS HAVE ANY SKILLZ FOR LIFE = THE PARENTS ARE 100% INCOMPETENT

In Ep 1, this awesome special agent totally fails as a parent and as an agent, completely disregards his daughter and leaves her hanging all alone as usual, completely disregards common knowledge of bullying in schools, and perhaps he has already caused death of his child.

So forget special agent life and skills... when this special agent is a clueless moron for LIFE and incapable of talking to his own child.

SO THIS DRAMA SO FAR HAS A GREAT ROOT CONFLICT TO SOLVE, THE SAME CONFLICT THAT ALL PARENTS FACE AND ESP PARENTS WHO FAILED TO ESTABLISH A HEALTHY CONNECTION TO THEIR KID AND NEVER COMMUNICATE WITH THEIR CHILD DEEPLY AND PROPERLY

So the drama starts with a great generic and widespread issue of bad parenting and kids who grew up on their own and are thus clueless and behaving against the laws of survival and common sense

So... and at this point the drama can EITHER sink or swim

Imo the drama would sink if it becomes an empty shell and be "Weak Hero" quality with fights and special agents

Imo this kdrama can become a truly great drama where parent and child finally establish themselves as a loving caring family and a dedicated team that communicates well and works well in tandem with love care compassion and mutual understanding


AGENT KIM MUST RAISE HIS DAUGHTER PROPERLY

his daughter is behaving in ways contrary to the laws of surivival
The daughter is so clueless incapable of living
and that is all fault of her father. AGENT KIM HAS TO LEARN TO BE A PROPER PARENT WHO TALKS TO HIS KID AND PAYS CLOSE ATTENTION WHAT THE KID IS DOING OR NOT DOING.

IE AGENT KIM HAS TO GUIDE HIS DAUGHTER

No content... flashy scenes, fake acting, silly dialogue

Well this is like a slide show of very sensational and/or pretty images, whizzing by fast...
The acting is sooooo fake... soooo cringe... ough bad!!!
and the dialogue is super simple and rather silly

it is just over the top bombastic and dramatic
I doubt there is any humor in this or any lightness

it is great for audience that cannot focus on acting
Basically a short vertical but in a long format.

PURSUIT OF JADE - wow what a scam lmao
I just read an article about Chinese government's public announcement asking for focus on good scripts rather than just looks ... and millions of fans, international too, are saying they just care to see a pretty face and how the ML actor is so beautiful...

I would say to idol fans swooning over the "beauty" of these Chinese actors: Capool beautiful LMAO Chinese military publicly complained about ML not looking like a man... Indeed, he looks like a porcelan doll skinny sickly teenage girl .... yeah with tons of makeup...

Gees, I found myself symphatizing with Chinese military and Chinese government LMAO Never ever expected that :) but on this issue, I totally see their point :)
And I wish them good luck... It is their fault they dumbed down the ppl so much that this is happening... the people do not have any interest to think about deeper subjects and they only care to swoon over some pretty boys.... HOW COME IDOL FANS ARE NOT PROTESTING THE WAR IN IRAN OR GENOCIDE IN GAZA - OR THEIR OWN GOVERNMENT? but are playing hookie worshiping porcelan-pretty faces?...

So funny, the cover photo for the "popular actors" shows 4 ppl 2 men and 2 women - who look almost identical... And inside the article, all these ppl look alike.....

The new trend is a triangular jaw and a unisex look, same for men and women... and they all look like porcelan dolls and like teenagers... They look like they came out of a cartoon..... So weird

So unhealthy.. they all look super skinny, like starved teenagers...

And even a funnier thing, the West is swooning over a cdrama, so communism WON globally LMAO
Pursuit of Jade is the best terrorist attack from China, ever LMAO
Holywood is dead and China gets to brainwash the world! Lol but with Holywood-like dramas lmao No content, just the looks and hype

THE WEST HAS SWITCHED TO CHINESE !!!!
The idol fans are great at spreading Chinese influence :) I never expected this but there we go

I wonder what will come out of this - world peace OR spread of Chinese communism lifestyle.. OR... spreading Hollywood under Chinese name... ?
Let's see :)

Also, Chinese seem to be only able to protest their government by choosing to watch these Hollywood-like delulu shows focused on the shallow ideas of some external beauty and without any meaningful messages.

This is certainly going somewhere....not good lmao

Creative amazing storytelling kdramas are going extinct... The ingredients of a good story:
part 1: flaws,
part 2: falling and having to try hard to get up
part 3: transformation
are to be found only in kdramas.
Unfortunately, new kdramas tend to focus only on the Holywood recipe to show only the TWISTED PART 1: flaws and making more and deeper flaws...

as the Hwood fans switch to ASIAN DRAMAS WITH HWOOD FEEL - essentially Hwood minus too much s.x and violence - the ex-Hwood ppl bring their preferences ... and since the West has the $$$$$$$$ and hundreds of millions of users... they call the shots

Asian dramas are going Hwood way. The totally wicked unexpected twist is that Cdramas - as most fake, silly, dramatic, shallow, meaningless, and sensationalistic - are closest to Hwood so ppl love them LMAO

This turn of events is better than any drama out there LMAO but it is actually scary and sad.
Idol fans are blind and irrational, and lack common sense and objectivity , so them overtaking the world is a scary thing

So let us see what happens :) The way it is going, this is my prediction:
THE IDOL FANS WIN :) ultimately, as the world slides into Idiocracy, 2006 american movie, or american movie Equilibrium, but not quite, bc ppl will be like porcelan dolls and not able to live their own lives.

Eventually one day everything will look like that cheesy cdrama, just a bunch of fast whizzing images and nobody thinking. Then the whole world will collapse and we EITHER enter Matrix movie or everything disappears and humans start from scratch

wow holywood with asian actors - meaningless fast paced chaos and drama, no content, no acting

If you like holywood, great, this will please you, here is LOTS to see and nothing real is happening. The conversations are menanigless, short and supposedly witty and funny. You will feel right at home!!!!

IF YOU WANT SOME SUBSTANCE AND SOME GOOD ACTING THEN ... RUN!!!!! dont waste time on this drugged-out fantasy without content
and the acting is super bad

the whole thing is fake

yeah the story is kinda interesting but the execution of it is a total hoola boola smoke and mirrors show, just a whirling non stop some kind of crazy happening, AND NO CONTENT
