I don't mind slow story telling but this was awfully slow and boring for my taste. I loved Melancholia w Lee Do Hyun and was hoping this one will be just as good as that one. I was about to giving up at episode 11 but for Wi Ha Joon I persisted. :D

My daughter is autistic but it wasn't the reason I've watched Woo. After that Park Eun Bin became an instant favorite for me and love her since. :) <3

I just finished this drama and honestly if it wasn't for Kim Young Kwang I'd dropped it after a few episodes. I really don't understand the high rating. This series is full with stupidity and illogical scenes. A mother who has lost her child in the earthquake and doesn't know anything about him (if he is alive and where he is) goes to work and talks to people does her job like nothing happened. A high rated private hospital hires a doctor who does nothing but whining and is not capable of operating or make a decent diagnosis but wants to kick out a doctor who would do anything to save people's life. A grown woman (being a doctor) is kicking or hitting people to wake them up or poking them on the forehead, acting like a little girl in elementary school. They using candle's to save electricity but one of the doctor sleeps in a fully lit up room. The director breaks his glass table, but in the next scene the table is nice and flawless again. I could go on and on... I know no one forced me to watch it so I only can blame myself but it was a total waste of time. The only "thing" that kept me watching was Kim Young Kwang. So unless you're a fan of him like I am don't let yourself to be fooled by the high rating this drama got.

For me it all started with Extraordinary Attorney, Woo in 2022. Despite this wasn't my first kdrama it was the one that pulled me in and couldn't let go ever since. Currently I'm watching the 137th drama and am still able to find great ones. Most of the times I don't watch the new ones that everyone loves and gets big attentions. I love to take the time and look for hidden gems. Though I still love them I think they should slow down a little with making dozens of productions in every six months. "Less is more" as they say.

But some of them, like Jisoo for example, couldn't do anything despite it was proven the allegations were false against him. His agency turned it's back on him, he was kicked out of the ongoing drama River Where the Moon Rises. He was discharged from military last summer and still couldn't sign a new contract with a new agency.

To be honest this drama was a huge disappointment for me after all I read was how amazing and what a masterpiece it is. At the beginning I was really into it. It was thrilling and despite the subject it was also lovable thanks to the actors and actresses who all did a great job. But from episode 7 the story went downhill and it became more and more chaotic. All the twist and turns just became way too much. (Less is more as they say.) I found it unrealistic and kind of funny that in this not so big town (it wasn't a metropolis that is for sure) there were psychopaths all over the place. Almost like every streets had it's own psychopath. I was struggling to watch it since episode 8 or 9 so after the 12th one I decided to stop watching it. If I think of the word masterpiece, Flower of Evil pops out of my mind not Mouse.

These Korean idols (actors, singers) are in such great pressure. In their society there are many things a lot less acceptable than in western countries. I don't support drug use at all but reading these articles of their life I'm not surprised that many of them need something to help to step out of that craziness. Faceless and nameless people judge them trough internet for anything. They even have to say sorry for living their own life, for falling in love having kids etc. It is just so not normal. I hope there will be a solution and Netflix wont pull this show down on the toilet.

Are you human too? was pretty good.
