I am not very interested in fantasy dramas also but I watched it because of KSY and It was a good surprise. I liked the drama. You should give it a try. If you don't like it you have the option to drop it.

I watched the Japanese drama when they talked about the remake in 2016. They will finally manage to produce the remake after all.

This is the drama that Jo Jung Suk was rumored to be the lead. I am pleased with Jung Kyung Ho casting as well. I hope it is a good drama.

You don't know for sure. They did say they wanted S2 & 3 and they did not confirm that S3 is not comming. But I am not waiting for it. There are a lot of projects that won't be made even after announcing the cast. I am OK not knowing more about the original mountain god or what happened with Taluipa. But if they will produce S3, I will watch. 😉

We will find out the answers to these questions in season 3.

You are right. The show did not adress what Hong Joo is doing in the present time.
The writer left open what Hong Joo is doing in the present time. We know about the other mountain god, Moon Bear, who is not even a character in S2. The writer could do anything with her. Perhaps we`ll find out more in the third season if they will produce it . I think she is doing fine. It was implied in drama The Escape of the 7, where So Yeon made a cameo with a character with the same name and similar traits, that Hong Joo is a famous actress, a diva.
It suits her.

I did not watch the drama I read the synopsis and you are right. The writer really likes this type of plot.

Perhaps there is a second chance for the wife also. I would like that. Before the hero return in the past, his wife betrayed him. She falsely accused him and put him in more trouble. Later he was killed. Perhaps this time she changes for the better and she will fall in love with the male lead this time.
I don`t think the romance is the main focus but I would like if there is a little romance. It is just an assumption. There is another female character who will have a crush on the hero and she is a good girl. And a prosecutor lady.

I like the style of the woman with the red hair. She is that vixen, I talked about. It looks like she helped the hero this time.

The prosecutor lady is brunette.

I did not read the webton either. Just the synopsis for the characters of the webton.

I don`t like this time travel plot but if Ji Sung will accept the role in this drama maybe the writing is good. I keep an eye on it. I am curious who plays the vixen wife.

It could be her. The female lead plays his wife and she is a villainess. Hwang Jung Eum can play a vixen character well.

The law genre I don`t really mind but I don`t like the plot where he will wake up in the past after he was killed. Let see how it goes. I like Ji sung. I read the webton`s synopsis so I am curious who will play the wife who is a villainess.

I hope So yeon will have another drama or movie offer soon. Fingers crossed.

Love triangle- no, happy ending- yes!

Nam Ji Ah is not a character in the drama but she appears in the beginning and at the end of the show as a cameo. Lee Yeon`s love for her doesn`t change. The female lead in S2, Ryu Hong Joo, has a crush for Lee Yeon since they were kids but they will remain friends.
The romance tag is for Lee Rang. He will fall in love in this season.

It is not really a sequel. Probably, I am not the right person to comment because I did not watch the first season but I think S2 stands on its own. The only continuation from the first season are Lee Yeon and Shin Joo who will get back in time. The other characters, whether new or familiar from the first season, live their lives in 1938, so the story is not a continuation of the the one of first season.
In general, time travel is a complicated plot. The only thing that needs an explanation is how the events of S2 will change or not some events from S1. Taluipa said to Lee Yeon in the first episode that he won`t change anything but it is not convincing. Unless it is a paralel universe. They did not explain it. I am thinking of Lee Rang`s faith. No way he will have the same resentments towards his brother (in the modern times) after the events from S2.
Since they did not show anything after Lee Yeon returned in the present, except of his reunion with his wife, we don`t know anything. Probably, events from S1 are still in stone but without an explanation from the writer. We should ignore the concequences of time traveling because the writer wants us to do it.
The writer let some questions to be answered in S3 (because they made S2 with S3 in mind) but even if there won`t be one, the events of S2 finished satisfactorily.
I don`t know if I have answered your curiosity. 😊

Me too. It was a lost oportunity . With little effort the writer could have give us a little spark for this cute couple.It was sad that Jung Suk was the only one who did not have a fantasy but I really thought the writer will give her one towards the end of the drama.

I hope they will work together in another project. I loved how nice he talked about Kim so yeon . He said in an interview post drama that his new role model is Kim So Yeon. 😊

I think A Virtuous Business was a good show. I really liked it but It would have been better if they would have been deviated from the kdrama format/tropes. The four women friendship was the best part of this show, they highlighted some subjects from society but once again, they proved that the romance lacks in kdramas. Jung Sook and Do Hyun made a good couple. They were sweet but they totally wasted their potential. Why they can`t write a good romance? I have lost the last hope I had that I will be satisfied with a romance in kdramas.

We knew that they liked each other, they showed the long looks and holding hands but other than that .... nada, nothing, niente. I know they were kind of reserved persons but come on....
I have to thank the writer that allowed Jung Suk to call him by name. 😂 I thought she will call him detective until the end. I don`t like when I hear honorifics with people who are supposed to be in love.

I totally agree. They showed almost in every episode how the girls worked on their sales and how Jung Suk came with different ideas to improve sellings. It is much more than they showed in the original series. And it is more than what they showed in other kdramas, when they usually forgot about the jobs of the characters.
