Pretty sure there are several news stories about violent partners murdering the women who leave them to answer your question. Despite restraining orders and in some cases prior arrests. Adding how much the police don't care and will do very little against a threatening man unless he actually hurts the woman badly enough to put him behind bars. Money can buy some measure of witness-protection level shit (leave her job, move to a different city/country, change her contacts, etc) but as also shown, she barely has a million won in her account. In this situation, him leaving her is the safer option and what she's scheming towards.

Damn. You must have access to police investigation files.

Hollywood has no respect because they're making tons of terrible films, protect pedophiles and rapists, unequal pay for non-white people and women, underpay writers and other creatives, etc. Not because Will Smith slapped a comedian at the Oscars. Or because some actor made their opinions known on social media.

The "Korean celebrity conduct rule book" as you call it has led to the loss of careers over nothing but rumours or non-criminal actions. The Korean system has led to the loss of lives.

I don't care much for either system but what we won't do is misrepresent facts.

Rak Diao begs to differ. Comedy requires quality. You can't slap any silliness together with "funny" music and sound effects and call it a day.

I have the same curiosity too. Hopefully it's properly revealed in the coming episodes.

The bigger story for me is the fight for freedom. A people trying to break free from their oppressors. The monster feels more like a subplot. I barely noticed the romance. Colonisation is brutal and has an impact that continues to be felt decades after. Colonisers continue to go to great lengths to whitewash their past actions. Work like this makes sure their efforts fail. (If you think any of this is exaggerated, you need to read some history.)

I knew Lady Maeda was more than just a housewife from the moment she first came onscreen. I don't know her backstory but I wish her the most violent death.

Ishikawa is another character I hate. It's easy to look at his actions and think he's in love. Nope. Dude just wanted his possession back. There's no love. Just ownership.

I won't use the word "enjoy" for this show but it certainly held my attention.

Interesting. You watched this show and thought it was a rip-off of Stranger Things? Have you watched Stranger Things? Have you watched this show? There's no way you've seen both and have such a take. Same genre, yes. What else? A monster? That's tons of shows. You can dislike the show for many reasons but please put some intelligent thought behind it.

I'd wondered about this but I don't understand Japanese so it didn't impede my enjoyment of the show. It's actually impressive how much lines a lot of the actors had in Japanese. Given the sensitivity of the drama, it'd have been impossible to use Japanese actors for some of these roles.

Sword girl needs to fall on her sword for real. All she does is screech and get in the way. If she loved Gu-won so much, why didn't she follow him in? Nonsense.

You just explained it. Near death + full moon.

Cute ep.

When are we going to see Charlie's POV because their relationship does not feel real? It's easy to trace Babe's growing attraction and see him fall in love, but Charlie gives nothing. He has his agenda, and being clingy and caring for Babe is part of that. Has that changed? Did he fall in love at some point? Nothing is coming through.

I disagree. Not saying anything isn't manipulation. Taking advantage of their feelings for your own advantage, that's manipulation. Saying something when the person with feelings hasn't confessed will make the situation uncomfortable, awkward and embarrassing for them. And you'd be forcing them to acknowledge their feelings openly before they're ready. It's borderline cruel actually.

Hyun-soo is protecting her same as he protects Seo Yi Kyung and her kid (and probably everyone from Green Home if he was around them). That's who he is.

Chan-young is a bleeding heart. He throws himself into protecting anyone who is in danger. He disobeyed his superior officer to help the Green Home survivors. He practically put his hand on a mine for the old lady and didn't let go even when he knew she was turning. Does he like Eun Yoo? Yes. But he would not be all up in her space if she wasn't constantly putting herself and others in danger (which is what I honestly dislike about that character.)

I don't read either man's actions as obsessions but opinions differ and that's okay.

Left my boy Day shell-shocked in the best way possible.

Did I watch a different show? What two men?

Why is everyone so obsessed with Song Kang's buttocks? Because I barely noticed it in the midst of everything else going on. I'm a little miffed because we barely saw three of the characters they had doing the publicity campaigns but the other characters more than made up for it. I wasn't expecting a tidy show so I'm not at all disappointed. It is an apocalypse after all.

Horror/sci-fi is not a genre that interests me normally but Sweet Home has become the exception. Looking forward to S3. Hopefully, someone knocks Lee Eun Yoo's lights out so I don't have to be annoyed by her for another eight episodes.

Definitely one to watch. Just saw him in Sweet Home 2 and came to confirm.

My first thought: Hyo-shim is playing along because she doesn't want to lose her job. The writers aren't trying to romanticise this delusion Tae-min has. But nope. I was wrong. The writers, in fact, are trying to cast Tae-min as romantic and his sexual assault as a "moment" between them. In the big year of our lord 2023. And the crazy part is that this episode started so well.

At this point, I don't think we're going to get a satisfactory "f-you" from Hyo-shim to her family. It's going to be redemption all around for the horrible characters and no real punishment.

And I really liked this drama. Characters aside, the acting was good and the plot had some merit. This might be it for me.

Everything you and OP said. The writers are pretty fucked up. I'm usually first to defend writers but the romantic bgm pushed me over the edge. I'm going to watch tomorrow's episode hoping for a "sike!" moment with Hyoshim otherwise I'm dropping this drama.
