I was looking at that just now, wondering if I could fit it in soon. She was in Midnight at Hagwon, I see. I remember her as decent in that show, but I couldnt finish the show itself for several other reasons.
Ep1-2 Excellent exposition. We sort of sink down and backwards into the better parts of these two characters while staring with horror at the way they act out. Her faithful manager does his best, but she, comically, just cant be contained. Spectacular in her innocence and natural arrogance.
Park Hae Jin and Yoo In Ah, as 2ML and FL are very good too, they are both a little defeated but sweet. Really spectacular apartments. Entertaining glitz.
This show was produced and more or less set in 2013 and the actors all have close to natural make-up and skin tones. It is nice to see.
What happened between 2013 where all the actors have great makeup that brightens their complexions, to 2018-20 where all of a sudden everyone was doing 'lighten ' me up? Why? What was the fashion change?
Isnt it ironic -- SK, famous for excellent skincare products, demands and rewards its actors for the very lightest of complexions, so every visible inch of skin is foundationed, to the point that hand make-up on screen is common? The reasons are probably absolutely about depicting status -- professionals, office workers or asset owners do not go outside, apparently .
There was in point of fact at this time a real revolution happening in screen make-up for people of very much darker skin tones, at least in the US. How could something similiar not have been created in SK? What happened?
The amazingly beautiful Jun Ji Hyun will be in Human x Gumiho soon, so I decided to watch this, as well as fitting it into a personal rehabilitative retrospective of Kim Soo Hyun's work.
In case anyone out there is still wrapped up in cotton wool with their fingers in their ears, the 'evidence' against Kim Soo Hyun was deep-faked, and that is why the civil trial originally went in his favor and the family will have to pay for their cruel greediness. The faker will now go to prison. The police investigation as always took some time. Meanwhile he was literally flayed alive in public.
Ok. Let's say she did come to him only as an obligation or repayment (though we know she has liked him before),…
I have only seen ep29 so far it may be too early for me to weigh in, but still..
Ye Li is still somewhat mysterious to MXY -- he still isnt sure of her, of her motives. We cannot see behind those closed doors, but he seems to still need her to verbalize her commitment, despite all their affection and physical closeness.
One thing we can be sure of, he is deeply in love, and he isnt always behaving rationally at this point, although he has made mighty efforts to stay calm so far.
She never seems to quite say the right thing -- it is true what you say, that she has privately (in conversations with Qing Shuang?) framed all of her efforts in the mansion as debt. She clearly feels enormously guilty and just as clearly makes great efforts to hide that from MXY. He must surely feel that falsity still.
Cute! Hope the China team will be at the next Cup. Putting Li Xian out there is a good way to get mainland fans interested. That is key, to get the ground game more organized at home first.

This is too cruel.

Love LJG -- hope he gracefully starts taking supporting roles. Make way for younger actors.
I forgot that MXY has a genetic predisposition to his hair suddenly going white under shock! That is why they look so old!
Maybe that scene with the two of them old and poor was a dream or a thought.
Notoriously unreliable epi-phenomenon.
The story of Li Fei Bai and the dancer (Lady Yu Sheng?) is abruptly introduced. Did I miss a scene somewhere?
I really didnt expect that! Good thing I didnt read spoilers lately. Otherwise the surprise would be lost.
