Thank you! Finally, someone that doesn't make radical feminism their entire personality trait! I'm glad you understood my point for what it is without taking it as a personal insult.
I'm a woman and I don't like kdrama simps whose only personality trait is to simp after the female lead from the first episode to the last without any other quirks, especially when the FL on the other hand is giving nothing at all to even simp about. Two cardboard cut outs in a staring contest. That's what it looks like. Just lazy writing and non-existent character development. If you're going to write a simp, Nam Goong Min's character in My Dearest is how you write one
I've been caught fully off guard by this show...to think that I'd completely overlooked this drama when it first started airing because the summary on MDL didn't sound interesting. But then I randomly decided to watch it while waiting for Undercover Highschool to air and oh my god, what a FUN watch. Best example of execution >> concept.
So engaging right from the first episode, fantastic OST, the perfect length of episodes, not too long, not too short, GREAT casting, each of the new faces I'm seeing are so good at their individual roles. They all have such natural chemistry between themselves. And I totally overlooked Minhyun this whole time since Alchemy of Souls...he was made to do this role. Brings a natural innocence to his character but his stunts are equally convincing.
I don't think I've enjoyed an action/thriller as much as I'm enjoying this one since Bad and Crazy. I'd been looking for something along the same vein, combining light hearted moments, crazy humor and wonderfully choreographed fight scenes with a solid cast and chemistry. I think the best shows are ones that make you feel like they ended too soon and should've had more episodes, and this drama checks all of it.
I really want this pairing! But I’m beginning to hate speculative articles with ”in talks”, “reviewing”,…
I heard that the agencies themselves just make it sound speculative even though they never give out these details until they are usually "confirmed". So in this case too you can be pretty certain that this *is* a done deal unless god forbid someone gets into a scandal etc.
I thought that pic in the article was out of a kdrama lol...the clarity and quality! Needed to do a double take to confirm that it was Taecyeon. Definitely does not look like a sasaeng pic to me...those are usually grainy and pixellated and the subjects are usually lightyears away in the frame like they were shot on a telescope...and since when is the go-to proposal pose known to every human ever just a birthday present haha...these idols and their fans need to chill xD
I dont understand the rationale behind an NIS agent deciding to make himself a highschooler when he could've easily been a teacher instead? I mean wouldn't their goal be to blend into the role as seamlessly as possible? Maybe screenplay-wise, it's for more comedic effect? Anyway ig you'd have to watch the drama to see why 🤔
Since according to the summary, jae pil is both the female leads' first love, I wish they just confirm who he ends up with in the beginning alone so I know who to root for (like in True Beauty xD)
Not really...they are actors. They are meant to be sporting different looks and appearances for different characters in different shows. This is true for every film industry...only drama fans seem to want their actors looking like the template kdrama cut out in every single show regardless of the genre or role. If anything, his filmography so far has shown that he has immense range as a performer and isn't afraid to go for diverse looks for the different characters he plays.
Honestly, I don't think Won Ji An is the right choice to star in a romance with Park Seo Joon, not only because…
I agree somewhat not because of stardom tho, it's only the age gap. Last time park seo joon had a similar age gap, it was with kim dami in Itaewon Class and there wasn't really any chemistry between them, especially obvious towards the end when they actually get together. I noticed this with When the Phone Rings too...the age gap was really awkward with the leads, especially because chae soo bin has a baby face and yoo yeonseok looks more mature and would've looked better with someone more mature looking as well or closer to his age. Actually ig it's not the age gap itself but a lot of korean actresses just dont have mature enough features when paired up with older men if that makes sense. And what ends up happening is they give older brother younger sister vibes more than lovers.
