I'm not really into martial arts but this drama is quite good. It's actually well made. I like the cast very much too (I wish Yusei would have been part of it ^^). Looking forward to the next episodes.
The best movies of 2024 according to whom or on what criteria ? The least that the author can do when creating such a list is to base the ranking on something, Is it just personal tastes and opinion ? If so, you should indicate it at the beginning.
From this list, the only one I really liked was "Revolver" (definitely not a movie for the majority of MDL population...), and "I, the Executioner" was a good watch too. The rest, no, thank you.
These specific kind of hardships are much real!!! People that have been abused in this way like our ML have very…
I haven't wrote that the hardships aren't realistic, but that the way they appear in the story are for me, that's different. The problem isn't the story itself, but the story writing I think, sometimes very good, sometimes not, it's inconsistent from the first episode for me.
Or rather too real. I don't know if you've ever encountered such a thing but trust me it's never easy for some…
It's not just about the relationship in the last episode, that is something that can be realistic and that I understand. Since the beginning I think this drama goes from a masterpiece to an average story in the same episode, thus my initial balanced comment.
Or rather too real. I don't know if you've ever encountered such a thing but trust me it's never easy for some…
Too real ? Well, that's sound very weird to me. It's not how the ending is, I don't care if it's an happy or sad one for the characters, as long as the story is good. But for me, here, many things feel forced and not happening naturally in the flow of the story. Different point of view.
I like it, there are a lot of good points to the drama or the characters, but an episode like this one (or the next one as it seems from the preview), makes me feel that they create hardships just for the sake of the scenario. It doesn't seems very natural sometimes, too forced just to make them reunited at the end.
It's actually a comedy, so I don't think this will please me in the end, but we never know. And I can't miss Kim Young Kwang in an historical costume (from the trailer his character looks like a supportive one, not really a cameo).
Seriously, who accepted that ? Not even capable to put the right title in English... And the main cast isn't complete. That's really annoying to spend time to give proper and quality information for movies/TV series to be added here, just to see that another submission so poorly done is accepted instead, just because it arrived a little earlier in the queue.
Anyway, excited for the second instalment of the Fengshen Trilogy.
I wasn't very impressed by "The Priests", so I don't expect much from this movie, but I will still curious to watch it.
However, based on the plot and trailer, what they do with the exorcism ritual is total gibberish in this movie. Thats nothing realistic.
Exorcism is normally only performed by bishops, because they are ordained with the full powers of the sacrament of holy orders and they are successors of the Apostles. And they may bestow the powers for exorcism to some priests for the solemn ritual. Thus, nuns, ordinary people or even priests who didn't received the powers to exorcism from a bishop, cannot successfully performed an exorcism.
Ji Chang Wook winner in Best Supporting Actor category for revolver at the 11th Korean Film Producers Association…
Very well deserved. I really liked how he portrayed that unpleasant character. His Andy performance is brilliant, so I'm really happy Chang Wook is receiving an award for it.
It's so weird he got nominated for wts but not for twoe in any awards show in 2023.
The APANs are actually for dramas that aired from November 2023 to October 2024, so it's normal that he isn't nominated for "The Worst of Evil" here. But in the same time it's a scandal that he didn't received any nomination for his role as Park Joon Mo. And if he don't get the Male Top Excellence Award for this one (especially if it goes to the likes of Kim Soo Hyun or Byeon Woo Seok), it will be another scandal.
I wasn't convinced by the first episode, but I'm glad it's the kind of drama that grows on you slowly. It's becoming better and better with each episode. I'm really looking forward to the next episodes now.
Well, unfortunately, it is typically the type of sageuk they mostly do nowadays that I dislike.
It goes from being overly "funny", the characters or the situations (I am usually not amused by what they think is funny though...), to overly dramatical, and it's a constant rollercoaster of different tones and registers, which I find really confusing and totally dislike. The characters are interesting, but they also make them too stereotypical and the situations too clichéd (especially for the supportive cast). However, the overall production quality is very good (sets, costumes), just like all sageuk these days. The filming and editing too. And I'm definitely not disappointed by Choo Young Woo performance so far (he is dazzling in these beautiful costumes !). But I wish it was a more "serious" sageuk.
It's not a bad one, just not what I expected it to be so it's a little bit disappointing.
I really wonder if 19 scenes is necessary to tell the story as I have a feeling tv version gonna be enough to…
"Queen Woo" is a failure because of the bad screenwriter that messed up the story and characters. The sex scenes don't change anything I think. These scenes represent barely nothing if you add them up compared to the whole drama. I think it tells more about the people focusing on it than the story itself.

"Dog Days" was good too this year.
