OMG. How much were all the camping gears HyoYeon and Sunny brought in #NoWayHome (#노웨이홈) E01? HyoYeon also brought a fireproof cloth to protect the grass and avoid an accidental grass/forest fire. First time I saw one.
Some said this story was based on a real life couple. If it's true, then it's pretty much useless to make theories. The fiction parts are more likely just the little details. But the way to characters make decisions were based on real life decisions they made.
I love where they are going with this. But before that, feedback on DaMi case.
a. They finally sealed that DaMi is dead. b. They did justice through her mom.
Now, where are they going with this based on S02E01?
1. One-by-one, each of the characters are set on revenge. 2. Each also have a different reason. It is personal. 3. Because the revenge is personal, they are actually going to clash against each other. 4. Because of it, the main antagonist might actually win again in the end. 5. It is highly unlikely that they will reveal their personal revenge plans. They no longer trust each other. They were hurt by betrayals.
#5 is good because it is with compartmentalisation that they can prevent K from hearing about anything. The fewer people in your revenge plan, the less chance of anyone betraying you.
6. This is a far more interesting setup. Imagine playing a chess with 7 players.
Or, playing Game of the Generals with 7 players.
Or, imagine a world war where there are 7 major factions.
And NONE of those 7 made any deal to help each other. And some of those secretly helps the other faction; and secretly use information from those other factions for their own benefit. But at the same time, they don't consider themselves an ally.
They all have the same enemy, but they also are targeting each other, and secretly using each other.
That's going to be challenging to write. You'll have to track the 7 factions and write a compelling story why each of them are doing this and that.
In fact, I already noticed one mistake. If you're going to amputate someone, you put something on their mouth to bite. It has multiple purpose: a. To prevent them from accidentally biting their tongue. b. To lessen the pain, because part of their senses and brain is going to focus on it. c. Protect their teeth. d. Protect their jaw.
When we are in extreme pain, our natural reaction is to bite hard. Shouting can only do so much, and an uncontrolled shout forces our jaw to open far too wide, which is a very bad idea. Thus, biting is the best way to prevent any unwanted injuries.
For some reason, Ms. Repentant Mother endured it all without biting on something. There were even scenes with her mouth closed, a miracle her teeth are still intact, her gums didn't bleed, and she didn't bite her tongue. She's the perfect human being!
Anyway, those kinds of mistakes are forgivable, and I expect more in the rest of the season. Why? If what they've shown us in episode 01 (as explained above) this story is not an easy one. 7 factions; and obviously, some of them are willing to kiss the feet of K to get what they want, be it revenge or whatever.
Chung Ah Lee, I miss you so much. Finally, the last week.
Yep!
But dang, I have second thoughts on this one. I can't slot in another melodrama, I already have a couple and it's going to be too much. I already dropped Wonderful World last week, can't take it anymore. 🤣🤣🤣 And I don't have enough light and comedy on my plate now to balance it out. Not even Samurai qualifies as a balancer, it's dramatic too. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Glad to see they're learning to write stories with potential for a new season. It doesn't have to 5 to 7 to 9 seasons, like in the West. 2 to 3 is more than enough.
To anyone who said the poster was a copy. That's a teaser poster and not an official one. Here is the official…
I actually had a facepalm moment reading those comments. Like, seriously? "It makes us worried because they copied the original poster." 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️ Too shallow. I guess they're Gen Alpha. This is probably their first adaptation. 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️🤣🤣🤣🤣
Remaking the original poster, scenes, etc. is a common practice. It is done for two reasons: marketing & a nod/respect to the original. And people are "worried" because the adaptation wants to give respect to the original. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I don't know about the original creator and the writer of the adaptation, but I already have a story for S02 where…
The thing about the "pyramid game" or "pyramid model" is that it's all about control and manipulation. The show/webtoon focused on the "game" and made it dramatic.
But in real life, it is frequently used without the players knowing they're in a "game". Or, being controlled and manipulated.
The twins represent those two, "control" and "manipulation". The S01 girls were focused on the "game" but the twins wouldn't let them know that the class, perhaps the entire school, is in another "pyramid game".
Since the S01 girls only know the "game", meaning, it's out in the open, they'll have a hard time realising there is another game going on. They probably wouldn't identify the twins worse the puppet masters.
Another disadvantage is this: the S01 girls are probably in that state where they're overestimating themselves, and underestimating others. This is normal after a success, it happens to most people, and that disadvantage is an advantage for the puppet masters.
The twins can also coat the game as a benevolent game. It helps everyone. You get rewarded for your good deeds, you get penalties for your bad deeds.
But it is what's behind the surface that is important. The "good" is simply to cover up the "ugly", the real reason a pyramid system was setup.
The problem is, it's not easy to write this story. Very few people will share their methods. I for one wouldn't share my methods, because I don't want to be at a disadvantage when I come across another puppet master, especially at work, it is nasty. Most people think of bullying as something physical. Not at all. There are hundreds of ways to bully others without any physical contact or psychological effect.
One of the best dramas of 2024 so far. The ending wasn't bad, however, they left it like that just in case for…
I don't know about the original creator and the writer of the adaptation, but I already have a story for S02 where the girls from S01 will find it very hard to survive.
;)
As someone who used the pyramid model myself back in the 80s and 90s (NOT for bullying), and as someone who faced off with those who used the pyramid model for "evil" in work environments, those twins are dangerous.
Forget about being twins. Even if it's one person only, they can take down the S01 girls because they have a huge advantage, they know how those girls play. They know their circle. While the new ones can pretend, act "okay", but was already gaining ground. The "pyramid game" doesn't have to be "known". It can be played without the players knowing it.
That is only available in North-& South-America. 😐What about the rest of the world?Will they force people to…
It doesn't matter. If it's not available on your paid OTT then go ahead watch from illegal streaming sites. It's not your fault. That's just how the industry is.
pretty sure it's 12. Viki has it listed as 12 episodes so I would think they should know since they are streaming…
IMDB is a crowdsourced database. Someone submitted 16 as a template, to be corrected later on. They probably want to add it to their list so they just submitted the standard "16 episodes".
Looking back at the comments, so many bad response for this drama. But I dont know, I still enjoy this drama.…
Correct. The FL waiting at the park was that one chance for them to give it another try. They could've another 10 years if that happened.
However, because the FL had to wait, it gave her more time to think and be resolute with her decision, it really is time to put a dot in their relationship.
Was it a mistake for the ML to have not left his work? Not really. Work is work. If he did that, and they got back together, if another incident happens where he got trapped in his work, it's going to be an issue.
I know, because, I've been in that situation. Doing it once can make your partner expect too much. Not because your partner is a brat, rather, you set an expectation for them. So, when you can't do it anymore, the other party starts to get disappointed. And if they have bad friends, they're probably saying things like, "he's lying, he's cheating", even though the other was indeed stuck with work. Usually, it's about a person's maturity. But even mature people can be foolish (which then ends up hurting each other).
It was a chance. A chance he missed. However, a chance he should not dwell on. "What ifs" is the most foolish thing any person can do, because it doesn't heal you, it only makes the pain stronger and deeper.
Sorry. ML is just too pathetic. After breakup he should've shift complete focus on his job or career whatever…
You have forgotten one crucial factor: it was their first relationship, and thus, first break up, ever.
You don't learn what "love", "romantic relationship", "break up", and "moving on", are until you experience it all.
As far as he is concerned, his world revolves around her. He cannot imagine a future version of himself without her.
Also, you've forgotten that the ex-girlfriend was also going through the same thing. The only difference is that she's handling it better and there are people around her why gives advise while letting her have her space.
Don't expect them to understand what people who've been through break ups of long-term relationships had already learnt.
