There are 2 romance arcs, one with main couple Sun-woo and Bo-ra (from start to finish and a lot of screen time). The other is about the FL liking 3 of her 4 friends at different times in her life.
There was enough screen time for Jung-hwan during the time the FL liked him to make people think he would be the one among the 3 friends. But as I read in a script review somewhere else, Taek had actually the most screen time: scenes about becoming part of the group, as the FL's father drinking buddy,, a lot of talking about his life and competitions from the other friends and families, scenes about him practicing in the academy, stopped by parents to talk about his bad moments, mentioned as wanted as son-in-law, etc. Plus the fact that the FL always thought she was unlovable and the writer wanted to give her someone who never smirked, mocked or scolded her, always happily accepted her in any situation.

It's not a saga. They're different stories and different characters. The chronological release dates are inverse to the titles: R-1997 (2012), R-1994 (2013), R-1988 (2015)

See following link, the information is on the right column. Chinese and other asian dramas usually don't disclose names of art directors, make up, etc. So guide yourself by directors, and by 'producers' (not 'executive producers') which are the ones that select most of the team, cast, etc, during the development and pre-production stages.

I've put it on hold twice already, and can't find the motivation to continue with ep 20. I don't like the plot so far, the only character I like is the ML, and the pace is slow. It may be because my last drama was Love between fairy and devil which was very original and fast paced. But since this one is so high rated , I'll probably finish it sometime this year.

No point, just commenting on your "but keep in mind that they're not all for writing or execution. Most of them were for the actors."

Thanks

The TBA dramas above where he appears as already casted with the respective FL, have reputed directors who wouldn't pick just any script, so I'm happy Dylan is picking good projects.

Won all 4 best screenwriter awards: 56th Baeksang Arts Awards, 2019 KBS Drama Awards, 15th Seoul International Drama Awards, 47th Korea Broadcasting Awards.
And 5 (out of 6) execution (production) awards: 32nd Korea Producer Awards, Grand Prize (Daesang) 56th Baeksang Arts Awards, 15th Seoul International Drama Awards, 47th Korea Broadcasting Awards, 13th Korean Media Awards.

Viewers ratings change very much from start to end of dramas, it's way too early to forecast.

Amazing acting in one hit after another, he should be included in Forbes power list for sure:
Squid Game, Shark the beginning, Midnight, Bad and Crazy, and even in support role like in 18 Again.

I just gave some real life examples to your comments. But since it seems you are truly invested in this celebrity couple and their age gap. please note that this chat is not meant to elaborate on this type of issues, since there are other forums and sociology and psychology websites which deal with this, and for different cultures (western, south asian, arabic, etc). On my part, I won't engage further than my real life examples, not only because, I repeat, this is not the place to vent those opinions, but also because I believe each person's way of life and their choices should ALWAYS be respected and NEVER be judged by other people. Have a happy day :)

Apollo37, I just replied to you in another comment. Here is what I wrote before: Generations change, grow, adapt. According to news and surveys, most millennials only go for what their hearts tell them to, not only about money and career but also about partners. In my circle of colleagues and friends (some in the US, some in Europe, some in Latin America) there are 6 couples of older women (all in their thirties) with younger guys, and 1 where the guy is 15 years older than the girl. Three couples are married, 3 living together. They don't need a guy to give them financial stability; that was probably true for my grandmother's generation, because even the majority of baby-boomers women worked. And men never mature, they change their toys for more expensive ones when they grow up. In fact what I love about them is their straightforward and playful ways that sooner or later reveal how adorable childlike they are. Have you seen a group of mature men playing anything? Don't let me start with video games. If you have lived with your father long enough, you know what I mean lol

This was accepted as the country entry from Turkey for consideration for the Oscar for best foreign language film. It won Cannes golden palm plus other 18 awards and 11 nominations.

I understand, thank!

No problem! It was me who didn't make it clear :)

What I mean is that a large portion of high ratings are from its target audience who loved it. I'm currently watching it (episode 4) and I'm not a teenager, but I'm liking it too.

I got nothing, those reviewers had new ratings but I didn't receive notifications about them.

Thanks for the list and your comments that made me laugh <3
