I watched the first few minutes of episode 1 and everything about it was just bad. I won't try watching it any further since I hate the screenwriter anyway. Also if I have to hear the name Momo ONE MORE TIME, I'm gonna lose my shit! 😠WTF KIND OF A NAME IS MO-MO???? IM SUNG-HAN YOU ARE A NUTJOB-
Why do mdl users never @ you lol. Not every makjang is like penthouse. If you watched shows from 2000s you would…
Wasn't most of The Glory based on a true story? I mean, generally, most makjangs are based in reality even if over-the-top... these chaebols are insane people! ðŸ˜
This is why I kinda stopped watching this drama for a while, the constant gag/funny scenes are EXTREMELY annoying.
They aren't funny at all to me either! Again the characters are basic as hell. They're just one-dimensional with one role and that's it. No further thinking. No complexity. Just "xyz". 🙄
last time I saw a weird drama like this was durian's affair 😠the characters keep talking nonstop without any…
This is the thing I hate THE MOST about Im Sung-Han's dramas and exactly why I don't watch them... scenes consist of nonstop dialogue where the characters are in one place... either sitting or standing. And they're just talking. Simply. Talking. It irritates my soul. ðŸ˜
I knew that there had to be a good reason for Go Hyun Jung wanting out. I'll watch it, but it sounds like the…
Very, very true. I guess you could consider her an anti-heroine in Reflection of You? 🤔 But my thing is it was hinted early on even while Go was filming... I just finished this and I'd say that Ja-Hye's character shift made a lot of sense and was quite compelling. I wish she didn't leave, but oh well... Park Jin-Hee did an amazing job with the material she was given.
bro this hasn't even released yet what are you yapping about
Me too! I haven't watched a horror drama (yet), but I've been into thrillers, recently got into crime dramas & political thrillers too. Might check out Whistle. But I totally agree with you. Shitting on a show without watching it at all makes no sense.
What’s a makjang? I have seen this word a few times now
Exactly! And there's no "set" style for a makjang, I feel like you kinda know once you start watching and really get into it... like oops, there goes a power struggle... or a catfight, or class division, or greed somehow lol
What? WHAT? So far this is the best KD. wow! Like it or not? Dumb belle? Gay? 😂 Noodle? Be patience, she can't…
I haven't watched First Man in a long minute myself, but I would not consider this the best (yet.) The revenge is definitely doing its thing, though, can't disagree with that part.
Is there anyone root-able on this show? It’s filled with awful people trying to one up each other. ML may be…
Some dramas/shows have a morally grey & complex cast of characters, and this is one of them... 👀 but, I do hope the FL grows a bit stronger. She already seems kinda shady, so I hope they lean into her greyness. My hot take is that characters shouldn't be black & white all the time.

Maybe because I wasn't talking about you, and this was a general statement. There is nothing wrong with makjangs. I enjoy them. They can piss me off and I'll drop 3 within a day, and I'd STILL enjoy it. 😠I grew up watching soap operas (and still do when I find the time...) so I'm used to it. I loved watching Penthouse even if season 3 was trash. I watch daily dramas, for goodness sake! Most of my finished dramas? Makjang. My flair on the k-drama subreddit is literally "makjang addict". 💀
But this is not a makjang. A makjang pertains to the STYLE of a drama, not its genre. Again, if we're going this route, then *every* drama that's been released within the past 30 years is a makjang. THIS is a melodrama. Melodramas can be considered makjang in its elements, historical dramas can also be considered makjangs. That doesn't mean ALL of them are. The original Korean definition even says that it's a TYPE of drama, not an actual genre.
Also, how is The Glory a makjang? Because it focuses on revenge? Is every revenge-centered drama a makjang now? Genuine question. 🤔 Are political thrillers gonna be considered makjangs too, then? I'm curious...
