What a great talent, I am am shocked and disappointed in myself for not knowing you before Pachinko regardless though I am glad I know you now. Love you in Pachinko, I would love to see you recieve the "scene stealer" award.
I liked this drama when it started, but somewhere along the way something went wrong and it all started feeling forced -- all the relationships and acting seem superficial, like everyone is trying very hard. It may be a directorial issue, rather than an acting issue, but I find I struggle to relate to the stories or even care, and that's sad, since I like all the actors a lot.
I really like Son Yejin but here in this drama, why is she doing everything so extra? Extra down or dull or extra…
You expressed my thoughts perfectly but not only that I feel like everything is forced -- all the relationships -- this drama started out so well but went totally wrong and I can't even say when that started but I can't bring myself to watch a whole episode anymore.
I completely agree with your review. I also thought the father compounded the issues with his unwaranted outbursts and jealousy early on in the marriage before any real sparks (if we can call them that) started to fly -- of both his sons, especially his older son even politically, which was a bit off for me. I also agree that Nanami stood out the most and she had me wishing Hitoshi had fallen for her instead.
