i finally finished this , i liked the story , the actors & their relationship , but what the hell is wrong with…
I agree with you, the ML is infuriatingly of one mind and stubborn as hell. as for the other characters, I think there are no 2nd and 3rd leads, it's more of an ensemble cast so everyone gets a little screen time here and there. I think it was refreshing to see someone like Im Shi Wan who was a deeply flawed but realistic character and someone a lot of us would be like if we ended up in this situation. We'll definitely see more from him in season 3
I feel this season was more detailed than the first one. The games were more interesting imo and we got a wider…
I wish we got a longer season instead of splitting it into two separate ones because this was basically just the set up for everything else to come in season 3. I'm not complaining though, we got to spend a bit more time with the players and their personalities this time around.
I absolutely adore the parallels we got in terms of the notions and expectations of masculinity and femininity and how our characters re: dae ho and hyun ju defy them. super well done!
Every now and then I think about how subversive this drama was (romantically) for its time (kinda still is). A very well-written insight into how characters don't have to end up with each other just because they are the star billed ML and FL.
That instead we can have complex relationships, an incredibly passionate enemies to "let's use each other for our personal benefits" to "no one else in the whole world understands me like you do" to lovers. Such a masterclass in writing and truly ahead of its time the romance here was.
I agree! This is such a complex drama, that every time I done rewatching, I always gain new information or new…
you're so right. it's tricky to utilize the 16 episodes correctly but I would still hold hope because there are so many little things they could spend time on, that the 16 episodes wouldn't feel like a lot because i literally cannot get enough of this drama ðŸ˜
