This is peak entertainment. I really don't care about any of the things I'd usually care about like a plot, etc. Half the time I'm pausing and going "fuckkkkk".
Dowon having Yiyoung vent on his behalf was cute. He's such a good senior and I hope he stands up for himself the way he does for his juniors. Dr Whatsherface has an insidiousness that you find in only the worst people. See how she set up the pieces with the professors so even if Dowon tried to say anything he comes out looking bad/petty.
I knew that sweet husband was sus the second he showed him. The misogyny jumped out. Glad she gave it to him hot hot.
Sabi thinking the back talk was about Yiyoung was hilarious. Their personalities are actually quite close when you deep it.
Loving this drama so much. I already feel sad for when it ends.
Omg not this sh*t again. I really hoped Dr Ku will do something about his paper getting stolen. But no, we got…
His nickname is literally Pushover. He knows it. The entire hospital knows it. That is the character, for now at least. I'm guessing his character arc will involve development in that area. I predict another situation with that doctor.
currently watching ep 2, and since the beginning the girl with glasses, Sabi’s acting has been bothering me…
She got a main role by auditioning for it. Shin Won Ho who directed Hospital Playlist was the producer for this drama and very involved with the casting. If you're familiar with his work you'll know he only works with the best talent. He/his team does not miss whether its with rookies, theatre actors, musical actors, or veterans. They find the most suitable actors. That she got chosen for a lead in her very first drama by this team tells you everything you need to know about her.
Maybe you're mixing up issues you have with the character for deficiencies in the actor. It's an easy mistake to make sometimes.
My cute puppy got a reality check. Needed to be done though. All the other doctors letting him getting away with being a nuisance. He'll be better for it though.
The scene with Yi-young talking to the little girl is just one example of why GYJ is such a good actor. Some dramas would depend on some kind of montage/flashback for that scene with the voiceover in the background but she delivered the lines, almost deadpan, and yet the emotional impact is massive. You can almost picture her as her child going through those things.
Wei Jiu is a perfect example of men not being able to take rejection. Bro launched a whole "I'll get mine and come back to show her" campaign. At least he was open about being the source of his grouse. A petty villain fr.
I'm enjoying this largely because I like the leads a lot but it could have been executed better, at least eps 2 and 3. The OTT characters are completely unnecessary. They throw the tone off completely. And then you're supposed to get re-immersed immediately in a serious scene. Scenes like Yoon Gap and his mother with the spoon, or him being disrespectful to the kind, provide enough comic relief without all the yelling and "funny" facial expressions.
That Johnny bit as well. It could have been better handled. he had every intention of raping that man. That he stopped for whatever reason does not make him any less a sexual assaulter and a bloody bastard. Then he turns it into some sort of prank, traumatising Akin for days. Nah. Fuck him fr. (Yes, I know. The source material is worse.)
This is comedy but I don't find it funny in the least. It an interesting and entertaining watch though. All that gaslighting just rubbed me wrong. Not a fan of messing with characters psychologically. A slight change in genre and the FL could be a psychopath torturing someone she hates. Putting a pin in ep 21 to return later.
She's taken on some really challenging roles and she has delivered in every drama. It's almost like she's going…
Let's stay focused. You made a comment about Go Youn Jung. And have somehow not answered my question. Name one character she has played where she did not do the role justice. I'll wait.
I'm glad you acknowledge that it's about you not liking her acting and less about her being a bad actor. Those are two very separate things. Also everything this young woman has been have been hits. Nothing ruined.
And fyi Korean dramas have always, always valued aesthetics. We're talking about the plastic surgery of the world. You think that just happened in the past ten years? Name five top actors from the older generation who did not fit the beauty standards in their heyday and I'll give you twenty who did. Even the old actors who act as grandmas/grandpas now were beauties when they were younger. Aesthetics has always been a standard. Always. Maybe look up the history of Korean cinema and speak from facts.
She's taken on some really challenging roles and she has delivered in every drama. It's almost like she's going out of her way to take roles that don't centre her beauty. Her first main role was in 2020 and she is still considered a rookie, with room for growth. She is acknowledged by older actors who have worked with her as one to watch. Directors too.
It's okay to dislike an actor with your chest but to make completely negative comments on their acting skill based on "one I managed to see" and all the dramas you have dropped is illogical.
You say her acting is extremely stiff. What characters? Did the roles call for expressiveness and she fell short? Or you think acting is just about using the full range of expressions (facial and body) and not at all about the ability to hold rein it in when the role calls for it.
Why don’t you try doing it the old-fashioned way? Watching it like any person would 🤔 Is that no longer the…
There is nothing like the old-fashioned way. People who prefer spoilers have existed as long as television shows have. Some people only used to watch reruns of shows so they have an idea of what to expect beforehand. I sometimes read summaries of shows before I watch them. People enjoy different things in different ways and it takes nothing to respect that. If it annoys you, looking away costs nothing.
And Boat is hot af.
