Lovely

I think most people that judge IU haven't really watched much from her.
in Dream High her role was so small, when she wasn't on screen you forgot about her. Pretty Boy was not the best drama but her perfomance wasn't bad at all. Where she totally got my heart was in You're the Best, Lee Soon Shin. I watched 50 eps just for her and she was so amazing in my eyes and then she played Cindy in Producers what should have been enough to show her talent because she delivered a role that was so different from any other she played till then.

I have to say I am a fan of many male actors that I consider very talented, it's just that with LJG I always remember how good his acting was whereas with other actors I most likely remember how much I liked their role in the drama/movie.

What says a lot about him, in my opinion, is that he is so good in choosing his roles. I mean his roles sometimes are bit similiar since he likes to play the more distance guy in historical dramas and movies but each piece is very different in content and there are always at least a few scenes where he just proves his pure talent.
And yes, your are very right. He is so good with expressing every thing you need to know just with his facial expressions. So good that I believe LJG is probably a pretty good liar in real life XD He is the full package. He has the look, the talent and the voice.

Yes, I really enjoy our conversations. I hate it when people and I have different opinions and they just declare theirs as the right one. It's kind of disrespectful. (It's another thing if we have a discussion about certain behavoirs and actions that are right or wrong and your arguments are better than mine :D)

I can't really say what my ideal type is. I would say I am normally more attracted to the nice guys, but I am in dramas most likely always TeamFemaleLead. So most of the time I like the one she falls in love with in the end (when it's reasonable) just because the director wants you to love him and I admit it works for me 80% of the times. My first second male lead syndrome was Chilbongie from Reply 1994, I'll never forget the heartache. And my biggest was Siwon's role in She was pretty, it's still hurts how perfect he was - the type of guy I'd totally date.

Well, Edward was really nice and he was really nice to Bella, it's just that he knew that he was dangerous for Bella. As well was Jacob after he became a werewolf. And Bella and Edward were happy most of the times except for the 2nd movie/book. There are only very few great lovestories without problems and drama. Let's not start on Twilight, because we are on different Teams again :D.

Yes the mangaka of Cheese in the Trap was very unhappy with the way they adapted it. The director said they would stay true to the webtoon - what the didn't, apparently.
Park Hae Jin himself, said that he was a fan of the webtoon that's why he played Jung. He was very interested in his character and wanted to deliver him very well. That's also the reason why he agreed to play Jung again in the movie, because he is such an big fan.
The comments I read on Dramacool were all about In Ho :D I would have loved to read more about Jung but well. Yes, I think Park Hae Jin is very famous in China but, it's neither his fault that Kang Joon was attacked by his fans. I think it had a lot to the with the director because she angered fans of the webtoon and the where so many bad rumors about why she gave Kang Joon so much more screen time towards the end and such.That still doesn't excuse those people. I just hate when people cannot differentiate between actor and role. They are not the same person. How can you hate someone for the role they are playing? The only thing you can hate about them is their acting. Not saying that Kang Joon was bad or anything.

Agree to disagree. Yes.
I wasn't biased either. Ahh his name was Inho not Seung Joo (I thought od Playful Kiss :D another character that had a shiity personality and whom I just cannot like, omg) :D I felt him being bratty through out the series. I don't have a special scene I have in mind now, just the feeling I remeber Inho giving off. Yes Jung went overboard a couple of times that's the reason they broke off. Because he realized that Seul was unhappy with his behavior. I didn't like Inho's impulsive actions, always beating people up and I didn't found him that helpful either. It's not that I know a lot about psychology but a few things. Your not just born with a nice personality but you have to get it teached to you.
I didn't dislike Inho so much as I was annoyed by him. I do not give him the fault on anything that caused Jung to do what he did. You're right it was his father. But it was more like that he didn't consider Jung's feelings at all. I mean Jung didn't either but I would apply other rules to a psychopath. To be honest I knew already in the early episodes that Jung was a psychopath based on his behavior and I didn't like him from the start but I grew to like him. For someone who doesn't know how to socialize I felt that Jung loved her so much when he went overboard. Not that I ever want this to happen to me because I wouldn't like Jung or Inho :D
I wished Inho had told her his feelings so much ealier because he was jealous and he did blame Jung for his hand and he did ruin Inha's dream of being an artist and I remember him telling Seol often that Jung was bad.
Since you didn't watch the last 3 eps you don't know that Jung in the end realized that he had to work on himself before pursuing Seol and broke up with her. He went to Inho to give him that signed music paper or whatever and I wished they would have talked and figure it all out and start being friends again. Maybe I will read the webtoon to have more insight on Baek In Ho. And maybe I'll rewatch Cheese in the Trap to tell you where he was especially bratty to me :D
The thing with Jung is I love him as a drama character but I'd probably never love him in real life.
The drama itself was not very well delivered because I read that there were a lot of Inho scenes that actually belonged to Jung. I hope they do a better job with movie.

Mhhhh I have to say I disagree with you a lot actually.
I mean yes your past is no excuse to be mean and that's why I didn't like what So did and like I mentioned, in real life I wouldn't like him. The thing is that I get to know his thoughts and feelings. So was never treated nicely so he treats everyone the way he expect them to treat him.
I think I wrote really long essays about Jung's character and why it is so important to not completely  jugde him by his actions because he had difficulties understanding what was right and what was wrong. There are so many psychological reasons that I could forgive him. I loved his character so much because he was so complex. And the things he did were bad yes, there is no excuse but I did forgive him. Whereas Baek Seung Jo totally had no problems with right and wrong and for me his behavior wasn't really better. To be honest my biggest problem with him was his temperament, the same temperament his sister had. They were so spoiled, so bratty , so childish that I couldn't handle them. Also in my opinion almost nobody liked Jung but rather Seung Jo. In the comments it felt like everybody was so busy judging Jung that they saw no flaw in Seung Jo. The saddest part for me was that they didn't give him some development and he thought he was always right until the end.
I know you said that there is nothing for you to understand but I guess I am different in that way because I most likely choose the character that I have to analyse first.

Wow, this really puts another side to him. I wish they had included the backstory, because I'm all about depth in characters.
But I don't dislike Wook because I love Lee Jun Gi as an actor. I watched so many dramas and I never hate the second lead when he is actually nice to the female lead. But I am kind of annoyed by Wook, what comes as a surprise because I do like Kang Ha Neul very much because he is a great actor as well. I think your comment helped me figure out what I miss with Wook and it's the depth in his character. Wook is only portrayed as that prince that falls in love with his wife's cousin, neglets his dying wife and is a love rival to So. There is nothing else about him. In comparison So is a character that has so much room to grow and to prove himself, not only to Soo but to his family and himself as well. He'd still had a story without the love connection to Haesoo.

I actually don't really understand why people start hating Wook now that he turned his back against Soo because for me it was reasonable. It was a little bit scary with the whole murder on that maid and the "you can do anything with me" but I could understand it. In no world I would choose my lover over the family that I love. If Wook had chosen Soo over his sister, no matter how wrong she was, I'd be even more disapointed in him.
I think I'm gonna like Wook now that he has another side to him:D

The best thing about the whole drama was watching how Mosheng found back to her old self.
She was such a sunshine as a teen and then suddenly so gloomy as an adult. But the further her relationship with Yichen grew the brighter she got. I thought she got really quiet and calm but in reality she just needed a reason to be happy again.

It was very, very, very slow but no matter how slow it was I had to finish it. This is actually a really nice drama. It has great character development.

Preach it.
Of course I find LJK very attractive but I wouldn't care for him a bit if he wasn't such a great actor. Like seriously I love his acting so much.
I gotta admit it was really hard for me to like him in the beginning because his character was aweful but well I knew it would get better, so I am glad I can like So now without feeling guilty towards my morals. You can love a character and still know that what he does is not right. You don't have to defend their wrong doings.
If dramas needed good looks more than true talent, I'd rather go watch porn.

seriously every drama where he plays the main role has a high rating? look how good and carful he considers his roles. like it's talent to pick only gold up.

I love Lee Jun Gi so much guys. I love his acting So :D much. I love it so much I'm gonna ignore that he doesn't accept a No because in real life So would be my Nr.1 enemy with that attitude. But I love Lee Jung Gi so much that I'm gonna ignore it and ship So with Soo eventhough Wook was totally nice and caring. But can someone explain to me why I started hating Wook? Like yes I don't ship him with Soo but why did I start hating him even from the beginning?

You mean ep 11 :D

W was different. It was sooo incredibly good plotwise.
But it has 2 flaws. It has so many clever twist, that it kind of gets annoying towards the end and you can't accept any other twist if they are not as clever and logical as the other ones.
I loved it at the beginning but personally I felt that what made it so great first was what took the magic in the end. That sounds negative but W was really really good and so different from what I have ever watched and I do not regret watching it at all.

2 scenes I will remember from this weeks episodes.
first. Bloody Wang So confronting his mother. Oh My, Joon Gi's acting had me in awe.
second. Lady Hae asking Hae Soo to do her make up and dying. the emotions where so beautifully portrait. I think Lady Hae was my favorite character. I just loved her so much and I will miss her badly.

apparently there are people saying she is bad at acting? Like do you have eyes?

nope. sadly not. I expected the same though

they both planned to study abroad but she didn't got accepted. so he went ahead thinking she would follow after a time but she never did and then broke the contact off.

haha why do you expect character development in the first episode?

I tried to watch this but it bored me to death after Ep 3. this is my ghost tipping.

I really like TTBY because it's very easy to watch and doesn't have too much drama but it was one of my first dramas as well and I love Choi Minho too so I quess I was biased and my expectations weren't that high.
but I just could not bear with BOF. I hate it to death. BOF, Full House and Couple Trouble are the worst dramas I ever forced myself to finish and I dearly want my time back.
Heirs was ok I guess, I finished it, I like a few scence but it was gringey. I would not watch it again.
