My Liberation Notes

I can't even explain what Lost does to me. I feel it with all my senses. It's not simply a show I'm watching, but rather one I'm experiencing along with the actors. I am in awe at the director for vividly translating the most vulnerable moments on-screen so touchingly. Boo Jung and Kang Jae's moments together are so intense they overwhelm me. I love the storytelling, the delivery, and interpretation of this outstanding work of art.

This drama evokes some serious emotions and questions in me. It has me asking myself if I died tomorrow, would I be pleased with the life I've lived, the mark I'd leave on the world, or am I even leaving a mark; would I be gratified with the relationships I've had; food for thoughts indeed. When a drama has one asking real life questions, it's more than doing its job. Brilliant is what it is for sure.

What I like most about Lost, other than the way the story is told, is that it brings prominent issues that afflict everyone the same regardless of status, class, age, gender, religion, ethnicity, or race to the forefront, the feeling of inadequacy. Being ignored, as they say, the worst feeling in the world isn't being lonely; it's being forgotten.

oops, sorry :)

This drama has the best promo posters ever == I am excited for it

It hasn't aired yet

Same with Uncle, it shows three episodes aired, and the show doesn't even have a premiere date set

I loved the opener, it clearly set the tone that an upper-class mindset doesn’t make one classy.

Only after watching the second episode, does the prologue from the first episode that Boo Jong narrates start to make sense, and it's hard to breathe at times watching the events slowly unfold. Her saying since the last time we met, I've been thinking about the right to be human. Not as a family member, friend, or colleague, but as a human being. The right given to the people who abide by society's rules and proudly set forth their names. The right to judge the world, criticize, be enraged, and despair. The right you say you have, and I don't. I've been thinking about that. But what is that world you speak of; and what is it to be human, does that even exist; I wonder. Those words cut me like a knife.

Lost is penetrating and poignant from its opening, especially in how Ryu, Jeon D Yeon and those around them deliver. From the anxiety to the emptiness and loneliness, it all cuts through the interlocking issues of human nature, social relationships, disconnection from those relations, and the state of existing but not living -- drifting aimlessly through life.

Yay Jung Woo... love him to pieces

Of course, I wanted to make sure my review was objective rather than just subjective taking into account the very sensitive nature of the subject matter the drama handles.

I am really interested in this drama but not sure it will be available right away

I miss Joo Sang Wook, good to see him coming out with something new

Thank you so much I am glad I asked, much appreciated

I adore all five friends, and those who know me know Jun Wan is my favorite since I love the actor to death. Still, if I had to pick one of the friends that have made a total impact on me this season, it would be Ik Jun. He compassionately, thoughtfully, empathetically, and lovingly takes care of everyone around him, even at his own expense at times, and never once has he done it begrudgingly. He deserves to be fully loved by the person he loves and with as much love as he has in him -- I bestow on him the "best and most loving friend and voice" awards.

What happened to episode 7?

Really good, each episode imparts it's viewer with a message -- i like how simple yet impactful the show is -- you should give it a try.

Deepest condolences to her family and loved ones -- may her soul rest in peace.

Just awful how they did him
