I loved this drama until I dropped it on ep.13 for other dramas and when I returned to finish it I just couldn't…
Lol, Ung never reciprocated her feelings. He kept forgetting she even existed so she kept having to show up to his house and exhibitions. Why on earth would she have ended up with a man who did not want her.
A near-perfect drama. Great writing, characterization, performances, ost - all of it. More emotionally complex and authentic than many other high-rated romance dramas in my view.
Great news! Wi Ha-Joon better return I will not accept what happened to his character towards the end of the season being the end of that character. So much more to explore with the Front Man!
This is one of the few dramas where I like and relate to all the characters, and they're also allowed to be flawed. Really solid writing so far (finished episode 10 today) and I just love Choi Woo-Shik.
Song and Yoo are super actors but to me, Yoo Ah-in is the best Korean actor today.
Yoo Ah-in is amazing! Definitely the best Korean actor for his age. We'll see if he ends up having as great a career as Song Kang-ho or Lee Byung-hun (who he's starring with in The Match). He always picks interesting projects.
It's so petty to bring up stuff someone did as a child to somehow suggest they aren't worthy of their current success as an adult. Hopefully this playground nonsense won't affect him going forward.
Just gotta make sure he is available for the second season of Squid Game, whenever that starts filming. His character clearly didn't actually die! Need to learn more about him and his brother.
Love Song Kang. Navillera is one of the best dramas I've seen in a while and he was lovely in it. Didn't like Love Alarm (bad writing and a poiintless Season 2). Nevertheless was also great; apparently the ratings weren't all that in Korea, but it's done super well on Netflix. With another drama coming up and increased popularity, he will continue to get good offers.
people are not contrarians. he isn't a very good actor but is put in everything these days so that allows more…
You seem woefully misinformed. Did you even watch the show? He spent months learning ballet in preparation for the show, and in many of the scenes you can clearly see that he is doing the moves himself. The more complex routines he had a double for, which is standard practice, whether it's fight choreo or dance. Not least because you don't want your lead actor to hurt himself.
He's also obviously an audience draw, certainly on Netflix. He's one of the few Korean tv actors to also break out with Western audiences. And he won the popularity award at the Asia Contents Awards this month.
Sorry but I see more people hyping him up than be contrarian about him. Tried to give him a solid shot and felt…
That's fair. It's like that with popular Western actors as well. There will always be naysayers. With a show like Navillera, which rests completely on his performance and that of Park In-hwan, it makes sense you wouldn't vibe with it if you didn't like him in it. Fortunately most people did!
Navillera is my favorite and Song Kang is great in it. At this point it feels like people just try to be contrarian about him because he's so popular. The show wouldn't work if his performance didn't, and it clearly does, hence the amazing scores here and on IMDb, as well as awards attention.
