Stuffed Cat

Excellent storyline, impeccably delivered. The tale is satifyingly well wrapped up in the last couple of episodes, while seamlessly providing a genuine reason for there to be another season. I'll be watching out hopefully for news of one. I don't even mind it will mean a couple more nights without sleep, because if it's half as good as this one, I'll not be able to stop myself starting the next episode as soon as the one I've just watched finishes!

LOL at "The Bitch". I've already said it out loud several times, and I'm only a short way into Part 2 so I'm expecting to say it several more.

As the commenter below this has also said: "Wow". I'm SO glad I waited until Part 2 had also aired before watching this, otherwise the wait would have driven me insane.

I know what you mean by 'meaningless', but they can also be useful. I've added two new shows to my 'Plan to Watch' list from what I've found here. Of course, I'm not entirely sure I'll live long enough to get through absolutely everything on that list!

I was surprised 'Vincenzo' wasn't high on this list ... until I checked and saw it has "Comedy" as one of its tags. Comedy? Really? Something I really love about Kdramas is that they're so hard to pigeonhole. You're watching the darkest show when there's a hugely funny line or moment. You're relaxing with something light when all of a sudden something pretty grim raises its head. I've given up checking what genre(s) a show is tagged with and now just enjoy whatever they choose to throw at me, which on the whole is pretty wonderful. :-)

"Sign me up"? Or "Beam me up!" :-)

LOL. So he's in the soon to be released "The Moon" too? Perhaps there's a law in Korea that shows can only go into production once they've offered him a part?

Did any of these guys SERIOUSLY expect to do well in their CSAT exam? Most of them behaved like they shouldn't graduate kindergarden, let alone high school! On the plus side, at least my wish at the end of Part 1 was granted. :-)

Surely, Darwin's theory should have kicked in by now, and those dumb enough to just stand there and scream instead of running away quietly should have got killed off, thus taking them out of the gene pool!? (LOL at "ex-girlfriend" ... wondering just how long it took after the crash for her to become your Ex!)

Oh ... it was YOU I heard screaming at the screen when I stopped screaming myself to catch my breath. :-)

In the good old days it used to be called 'hysterics'. The ML would just slap the screaming lady, and she'd stop. I don't think we're allowed to do that any more. Oh, for the good old days. Even nostalgia ain't what it used to be. :-)

If I asked them very nicely, and gave them a list, do you think the aliens would target some of the characters for me in Part 2? (Kudos to the actors for doing such a great job of making me dislike their characters so intensely!)

Yeah, but with any luck their screaming will get them killed in Part 2. The ones I'm personally rooting for are ... nope! The list is just too long!

A slow start almost had me giving up. About a third of the way in, the story kicked in and by the end you understand how that start is integral to the plot. Nowhere near as gory as some comments elsewhere suggested, so if that's your only motivation for watching this, you may be disappointed. What there is though is well done. It's realistic, not overused, and there's a sadistic undercurrent to some scenes which adds a little frisson to them. It certainly left me eager to watch '...Part 2" which I will do ... er ... now, actually.

Er ... how are these "just allegations"? MYM have published a statement admitting that tax was underpaid, that this was discovered by an audit, and that the monies due have now been paid. Whether this was an honest mistake or a deliberate attempt to evade the tax due, and whether LMH knew about it himself is no doubt being investigated. Until such time as the investigators are satisfied it was a genuine error, or something LMH knew nothing about, he is under suspicion. Few tax authorities take the view "Oh well, never mind. Just pay us what you owe and we'll say no more about it". There's nearly always a fine. The line 'According to reports...' could do with a citation or two, but it's common journalistic practice to leave it at that because most readers aren't interested in a list of sources.

Hmmm, that's an interesting choice. Take a very good looking, well-built guy, then cover his face with a mask and dress him in a baggy, unflattering, suit. Still, the plot sounds like it could be interesting and this glimpse of the graphics looks great, so it's a definite watch. And who knows? He might even take the mask off at some point. :-)

Long version: Even though it has the drop-dead gorgeous and hugely talented Yeo Jin-Goo in one of the main roles, and everything about it - acting, directing, plot, etc. - was excellent, this just wasn't grabbing me. I persevered anyway. (Yeah, OK, mainly 'cos of YJG. ) Then I got to episode seven. Then I started really resenting having to cook, sleep, work ... anything that interrupted my going straight from the end of one episode into the next. Luckily my resentment didn't have to last long, and I've just finished watching the last five episodes back-to-back.

Short version: "Absolutely brilliant!"

Hmm. Can't delete this yet, as it goes into the footer

(1) Love this idea, and our tastes seem to overlap well, so I'll be back often to steal a suggestion. :-)

(2) LOL. You're going to find sticking to only watching no. 1. soooo hard, if numbers 2, 3, 4, etc. also sound appealing. Or are you going to keep this list, rename it each month, and just delete the top one when it's on your 'Completed' list? That way no. 2 becomes no. 1 unless something else gets enough votes to oust it.

Oooh, OK. That and the news about Seo In Guk below, makes choosing two of the people I'll vote for easy then. Many thanks. :-)
