omg A business proposal will be on netflix. Best news of the year!
The one I was looking most forward to. Geoblocked in my region. I feel like tearing off my arm and beating Netflix to death with it. (Might be a slight overreaction.) Maybe too soon to say.
But the salient point is that this actor was 10 years old. Ten. Dragging this kind of information out about a person when they were a child is not good, and says quite a lot about the individual(s) who made it public. Revenge? Payback?
I'd like to think that we refuse to participate in this story's amplification. What social media does in Korea is up to them, but they should start looking at themselves and what they're getting out of ruining people for things they did when they were children.
Not in the business of telling other people what to do, and I appreciate commenting here at this site, but this story is not well done of us, I think.
This is true, but even back in the 70's, police (and I mean police worldwide) fenced off crime scenes with tape and kept non related people out of the area. There was no CCTV, smart phones, DNA tests to establish paternity, etc., but this doesn't mean that police didn't solve crimes, or that victims and witnesses had to do the investigating themselves. This is not even good story telling.
This was on my watch list at Netflix forever, and I randomly decided to watch it.
This is a slow, measured drama. The cast is very good with this material. I watched all 16 episodes, and lately, that's saying something in itself.
There is a not very well explained time jump where the FL goes off to do . . ..what, exactly? Find herself, maybe? It's dumb, and drags down the show right at the end where you really don't want it. Sometimes, time jumps are so that one or more of the characters can go off and do some character development off screen (which is just lazy story telling), but since the FL comes back the same as before she left, it just seems pointless.
So much dumb in the last two episodes of this. This is another Thai show where characters commit murder, but other characters have to solve the murder, including finding the evidence, handing the whole package to the police, nice and tidy like.
But before that happens, while the police are searching the crime scene, one of the villains walks onto the scene, picks up the murder weapon and pockets it. It's literally the dumbest thing I've ever seen in a drama, and that's saying something.
Why do scriptwriters treat Thai police so badly? Why do they write dumb stuff like this, as if their audience is made up of 7 year olds?
Watched this, found it unexpectedly addictive, but ultimately predictable and somewhat boring. Not sure how a show that's predictable and boring can also be addictive, but there you go.
Very, very pretty people with stunning bodies which seems to be what the producers were looking for, but I was left thinking that I didn't want to know any of them better. You can probably bet your house that none of them were together after the cameras stopped rolling.
Welp, I've watched two episodes of this, and I'm completely lost about the plot. The FL seems like a high functioning sociopath, the ML is a slut, the elders are on the take, and the siblings are entitled greed heads. Most of the kids seem okay, except for that one who had to be paid to attend a funeral.
I hate all the characters so far. This is going to be a show like Love and Marriage (ft. Divorce) where you despise all the characters, invest in none of them, and there's nothing to do but watch all the characters crash into each other like unmoored cars on a roller coaster.
It's a dumpster fire of a show. Naturally, I'll be watching all 20 episodes, because this is my kind of trash.
I watch and finish a few Cdramas that I hate watch. I've watched many, many Cdramas and I know what to expect (nothing) and be grateful if the FL can stand upright and finish a sentence. Most of the time, if a Cdrama manages to go even lower than my already low expectations, I drop it, but not before throwing it on the floor and stomping on it.
Thai dramas, now Thai dramas are whole different universe. I think you're supposed to hate watch most of these. I watched a few last year that brought me to the point of near screaming, cursing the producers and scriptwriters as incompetent, misogynistic fools. These are true hate watches.
I find most Sageuks quite boring. There've been a few exceptions, but even so-called great ones have me leaning on the ff button. (I made it through Jewel in the Palace somehow, which I liked, but frequently had me thinking that my viewing experience could be improved by digging a fork into one of my knuckles and twisting, but that's just me.)
Which I mention because Red Sleeve has been an exception. I especially thought episode 15 was exciting (fans self). Looking forward to a strong finish.
Many, many thanks to the subber of this drama. I've been looking forward to seeing this for months and months; so glad the subber chose this project.
I like how closely this remake is following the original, but with contemporary changes (even though the setting for the remake is the '70's.) Also, the leads are bringing heart to their parts. ("Lookmee" character is very beautiful and scary as hell. So much fun to watch her.)
I didn't think I would like this better than the original, but I do.
On the subject of freedom of speech, JTBC has locked the message board on their Snowdrop page and didn't allow…
That is a short term call that's going to cost them down the road, because now they're not just putting their economic might behind this drama, they're gambling with their future successes, as well.
Even if that petition reaches 400, 000 signatures, I don't think the Blue House can do anything to stop it from airing, and they probably wouldn't want to touch the issue with a 20' tent pole .
The network, however, ignores the fury of 300,000 people who signed a petition against a drama that they're airing is really taking a huge risk, so whoever's pushing JTBC NOT to drop it must have some serious juice.

Why do writers put these in the story?

Aaargh!
You can binge watch the entire series in 7 hours or so, and you'll want to.
