Best episode yet. Wow. I must watch more of Byun YoHan's dramas, he's a great actor. I'm loving every scene he…
The best and most complex part though is Lee GaSub's - I totally buy it they are different persons, and their personalities come through perfectly. And I kind of think I like GeunOh a lot - he's a coward who knows he's a coward, and STILL he does the right thing, even if always too late.
While the other two are just scum who blame the victim for becoming victim and don't like it at all when the victim is fighting back.
I wonder if either of them will come clean with NaGyeom's role in BoYeoung's death. I don't remember if the twin was a part of that - SuOh saw something but he's unable to tell except for paintings...
And FINALLY we're getting to DaEun's death and the greater conspiracy.
At this point, I just want to take JeongWoo away and let him heal. Most abused character in a currently airing drama...
Best episode yet. Wow. I must watch more of Byun YoHan's dramas, he's a great actor. I'm loving every scene he is in - the character helps, but still, BYH can emote like nobody's business, and that's pretty rare lately in kdrama.
SangCheol finally decided to get out of his manic slump and go detecting - he's on GJW's side completely now and it's a pleasure to watch them spark back and forth.
Yes, this is what I'm coming back here week after week for. I have a good feeling about it.
I guess I might be in a blue mood right now, but all I'm seeing is My Country Joseon style, in movie-format, maybe with some extra violent scenes on top.
Where the heck did the smiling mobster/killer come from? And how and why did they have to wipe out Tyme's whole…
Please use a spoiler tag, the fans will flame us for anything they consider a spoiler.
My approach is I'm losing interest the more this is discussed. I am pretty attention-oriented and I don't need to be spoon-fed details of any plot, this drama isn't anything special in that manner, and TBH, it's tiresome to have to try and find alternative explanations for anything that doesn't really work in the plot - so far. I am ready to be amazed by a great and logical ending to all this.
This is coming from someone who is very much into scifi/fan and loves thrillers, who has watched plenty of dramas and movies with complicated plots, who has read quite a lot of novels in the same genres (and others), so what I'm saying - I am not a novice. Frills don't impress me much if they don't make sense.
And I'm starting to see a lot of frills the more people are trying to explain what doesn't really make sense or is unnecessarily made obscure just for the sake of it.
I'll just wait and see how well they round it up - hopefully it'll be good and satisfying. I'll just tone down my expectations (since the first half was genuinely good.)
Where the heck did the smiling mobster/killer come from? And how and why did they have to wipe out Tyme's whole…
Please don't make this about me.
The killer would have done this, the killer would have done that - the simplest thing is that they made it overconvoluted because they wanted it to be even more "shocking" and it doesn't land well. That's just that.
Not that I really care, TBH. The more people argue in favour of how good this drama is and try to give examples, the more the lack of attention of details comes through. I'd rather just wait and see if they manage a good ending, LOL.
Where the heck did the smiling mobster/killer come from? And how and why did they have to wipe out Tyme's whole…
Yeah, the production team tried to make it a bit artsy and convoluted (and managed it for a while) but now it's way too convoluted and I don't trust the writer to bring it down safely.
If I had read about her previous works I'd have lowered my expectations, TBH. Now I'll just... wait it out.
Where the heck did the smiling mobster/killer come from? And how and why did they have to wipe out Tyme's whole…
It could be someone else because Lukwa also experienced the 4 minutes rewind and she doesn't have anything to do with the story except for that mention. Great, on the other hand, has NO reason to even know about her, so how come he's rewinding to a timeline (in his dying mind) that includes a stranger he never met and who happens to have experienced the exact same thing? Gah! if this becomes anything to do with life-after-death and religious-type of limbos-death-antechambers...
Tyme seems to remember things from Great's rewinds, Great seems to remember things from Tyme's timeline/real life. Great seemed to be the ML of the drama for the first half, then basically disappeared as they retconned those first four eps (and almost didn't show up in this one). You can't be certain which one is the actual reality timeline.
And the drama started off with Tyme being chased and killed. So IT COULD BE him, that's what they're implying.
TBH I am kind of getting disinterested at this point - the one thing I am still interested in is finding out who Lukwa is and what's her actual role in this.
Where the heck did the smiling mobster/killer come from? And how and why did they have to wipe out Tyme's whole…
I haven't seen the trailer, I wanted to be surprised by a scifi/thriller.
Great remembered having sex with Tyme, too.
Tyme got close to Great because he's the son of his parents and the parents are who Tyme is investigating (which BTW that childhood meeting thing didn't really need to be so overdrawn, LOL, it reminds me of kdramas where the leads ALWAYS already met as kids and then get back together when they grow up).
They spent 4 eps on Great's rewinds (with the clock moving closer to the end of the interval each time), and him investigating what's happening, and then it turns out none of it is real... then is it he's been dying for 4 minutes and seeing things he couldn't know before getting shot (like Tyme's friend investigating phenomena around the 4 minutes of rewind) OR is it Tyme's been dying (and he knows about the 4 mins limit and a lot of all the other included details), OR someone else (half the cast died this ep.)
That woman is still purposeless so far - maybe, indeed, SHE's the one dying and thinking about anything she hears around (maybe Tyme's friend is trying to wake her up telling her his thesis or something).
I hope they manage to end it well, anyway.
... And maybe get the leads to be actually together for a few important scenes in the last ep of the drama they're leading.
Where the heck did the smiling mobster/killer come from? And how and why did they have to wipe out Tyme's whole…
I seriously doubt it's a power. It's true that while the neurons are dying after the heart stops beating and sending oxyhemoglobin to feed the brain, they fire off at random, which makes people have all kinds of visions (all those persons who are revived and talk about seeing a tunnel of light or angels or whatever - those are the misfires of dying neurons.)
But they don't change anything in the real world. And neither does the time spent before consciousness is completely gone. They don't actually rewind, it's in their heads.
So that means it's either Tyme's rewind before death or Great's rewind before death BUT so many people died or are dying in this episode it could be anyone else.
Maybe it's Tonkla's 4 minutes. Or Lukwa is still in her rewind time and still dying.
RE the grandma - he called her. They couldn't know he would call, he could've just run there to see if she was alright (and the killer was already waiting for him, so he could have already been dead when big boss shot her).
Nah, they're trying for overdramatic and it's changing the flow of the story. (In an episode where one of the leads basically isn't present, so double hit). I really hope they manage to bring it to a satisfying end, it would be too bad to waste that first half.
Where the heck did the smiling mobster/killer come from? And how and why did they have to wipe out Tyme's whole…
He's been meddling for a long time, he set up with Nan for quite a while and it didn't happen overnight... If they were always on the radar, why did they let him do all his detective stuff and THEN go after the grandma - again, IN PERSON, who the heck does that?! He didn't even go after the one doing the meddling - Tyme - himself, he went to kill of an old woman, because why?! It makes no logical sense.
Not to mention that the stuff Tyme did dig up already did end on the news and with the police and that set all the rats running.
Why did the hidden big boss had to go shoot her in person, for the shock factor? That doesn't make sense, to be honest.
ETA TBH at this point I kind wish Tonkla remembered the big boss kicked his cat all those years back and comes to kill him, too.
They're not even step bros, girl, get the heck off your high horse. And I thought YOU were addicted to Addicted, so I wonder who's dreaming of step bros after all.
Anyway, what the heck does that have to do with Bite Me being a total snoozefest NOBODY liked, and that the same person wrote this drama's script? I won't trust her to bring it to a safe end, but then that doesn't impede you from gushing all over it if you want. Grow the f up.
The first three-four eps were pretty good, particularly in cinematography and attention to the details, but now the train is almost off the tracks and you're up in arms because of what?!
I hope they DO manage to give it a satisfying (or at least an acceptable) ending, TBH, because I did like the first half of the drama. But that remains to be seen. (And no, I don't need your opinion, kthxbye).
... As if there wasn't a highly successful drama just a few years back called EXACTLY The Devil Judge. And dealing EXACTLY with getting judgements that are more fitting to the crime according to the law AND the public perception of it.
I get it - it's pre-run promos, but seriously, could you please find articles that aren't so hopelessly ignoring the big pink elephant in the freaking room?!
Where the heck did the smiling mobster/killer come from? And how and why did they have to wipe out Tyme's whole…
If Tyme is the first to die - that's the opening scene - it would follow HE is the one first reliving or trying to undo his life. If more than one person has the 4 minutes experience, would they actually change something or it's all in their heads as they die? In which case, why would the external world be influenced in any physical way?
That's what I mean when I say it's a mess. You can't be certain who exactly is experiencing the 4 minutes rewind, as they ALL are dying left and right and any one of them can be rewinding (only in their heads!) their lives.
I got the fact Tyme's parents were also mobsters too from the beginning - but why did it take 20 years to finish the family off? And particularly right now, as Great's family is also running away?! They have bigger problems to solve than go around IN PERSON to kill off someone's grandma just for the kicks.
The only one who is actually still interesting is the woman with the 4 minutes experience. She still hasn't had a real purpose - other than being a tad of a love interest for Tyme's friend.
The scence with the fingerprints has not happened yet in the current timeline..
We'll probably learn that either Win told them who he told about Title (because he's a cop of because he got remorseful) or he already was under surveillance and they knew who he was seeing. (This makes sense when thinking the shooters were right next to him as soon as he got the USB drive).
I don't remember him finding Tonkla's prints - but maybe he told him expecting him to be sane and just grieving, not to go out and kill Title, which came as a surprise.
IDK, I'm grasping at straws here, the plot tried so hard to make it intricate that right now all the balls are in the air and ready to drop, and it's not certain what they meant to make as a story, exactly.
I hope they manage to find some logical thread, but I don't know, I'm not quite feeling it.
No the company is from taiwan but some crew is from China(some of them are even who created the masterpiece untamed
TBH, very sweet. 40-yr old virgin decides to kill himself on his 40th b-day because he's lonely, but he also wants not to die a virgin. So when he finds out about a gentlemen's club *cough* he tries his luck and to his immense surprise, people reply to his letters with pictures of their penises (it's a club thing, they're showing interest). But Wu XingZi is only interested in the pictures, UNTIL one day, when getting his mailed-in pics, he encounters a younger man who gets VERY interested (because WXZ looks a bit like that man's love interest).
That man is a general - not that WXZ cares very much, hahaha~ and he generously helps WXZ out of his predicament. And then grows a little attached, then very much attached then too darn much attached - stopping WXZ from getting his precious mailed-in pics!! But one day the general has to go back to his post... but also takes the bemused WXZ with him!
This is one hilarious story - WXZ is extremely certain Guan ShanJin (the ML) cannot be interested in him since he's older and not a great catch, and GSJ is getting more and more frustrated about how WXZ is like a slippery eel and doesn't let himself be caught hahaha~ There are bits of more serious and painful heartbreaking story, but overall, it's an extremely hilarious tale that includes WAY TOO MUCH SMUT (did I say that?! I take it back LOL) of fetish variety. But as I said, you can skip all those parts. Or try to see what they're about (it's not TOO extreme). And a LOT of dick pics LOL.
The TL is also very good, It's very diverting, try it on :D
The scence with the fingerprints has not happened yet in the current timeline..
Win told him who the killer was, and the killer ends up dead. It's not rocket science to realise who killed Title, so they go to Tonkla's house. But Tonkla's already gone cuckoo, chasing a dead cat's spirit, so he's away...
This is turning into a complete 'nother mess. Who's 4 minutes is it this time? And if everything isn't really…
Where the heck did the smiling mobster/killer come from? And how and why did they have to wipe out Tyme's whole family, including him, over twenty years or so?
The drama started with Tyme being chased and killed and we've gone round back to it - so is it actually him reliving 4 mins of his whole life? Why did we go through Great's part? Or is it all Tonkla's cat's lives? :D
I'm kind of not looking forward to the last ep. Everybody is either dead, or it's all in someone's imagination, in which case none of it matters since it's not actually real...
While the other two are just scum who blame the victim for becoming victim and don't like it at all when the victim is fighting back.
I wonder if either of them will come clean with NaGyeom's role in BoYeoung's death. I don't remember if the twin was a part of that - SuOh saw something but he's unable to tell except for paintings...

But obviously JJM was beaten up a lot, while everybody was focusing on JiAn, he went after Bale. AND he did come back alive, which means Bale didn't.
