Good comparison between Taepoong and Nammo's mother. I really like in just 4 episodes various personalities were introduced and blended in perfectly, expecting growth of TP's mum in later episodes.

2049 rating: National avg 2.2%, peak 2.5%. Surprisingly good for a period drama at this early stage. 2049 is key demography for advertisers, its rating is an indicator of commercial and critical success.

Agreed. Character development and relationship were well written with enough build up, esp the transformation of ML was progressive and convincing.

A rollercaster EP3 with perfect ending, Taepoong knows how to make a calm girl Miseon emotional.

Maybe try first two episodes and see if it up to your taste. There is only little hints of romance not obvious.

This drama is genuinely for SK people, it doesn't have Hallyu agenda like BAYM to promo k-food. For dramas targeting global the production co. would invest in streaming for getting high viewership. I haven't seen that happened to TF yet except a few countries. When positive reviews started to flow in, Netflix may promote TF more but I feel their real focus is Cashero, they may see TF as a drama to hype up the lead before it's releasee.

The Netflix original content is going downfall again.

fr. I like there is no excessive filter in this drama, I can clearly see the skin texture of actors.

Did you watch Way Back Love? it's a romance drama and she did very well. The romance in TF is supposed quite subtle and slow burn one, probably part of the character growth only not the main focus.

I think this drama aims critical acclaim, local ratings and awards, like Jeongnyeon last year and it may do even better. For LJH personally, its a chance to showcase acting to those only watched King the Land. As this isn't a popular genre on Netflix, they seems are not actively promote it rn. Really a bonus if the show also does well internationally in terms of numbers. So far its reception is very positive on social media tho.

He's such a great actor, the scene where he apologized for unpaid salary was so realistic that made me feel the burden of being a human boss.

The rose is a potential plot, probably the product that leads him to ultimate success.

Need 4-6 Episodes then we can actually see the trend.

The real adventure began at the moment ML joined the co. as formal employee, and the business plot started to set in. The last 20mins of EP2 was excellent, love the twist, tension and emotional outbursts.

Yeah love the bromance between ML and Nammo. And I have a feeling that the friend who ran away might help him back when one day he's in need.

Rating of TF Episode 1: 5.874% (National)/ 5.730% (Seoul). The highest rated premiere Episode among tvN weekend dramas this year.

A very solid EP1. They seems invested alot to bring back the nostalgic vibe in late 90's and it worked out well. Pacing was right for me, I particularly like how they unfolded the emerging of crisis through incidents surrounding the mainlead. The father-son relationship, friendship and rivalry tension were well depicted in just one episodes.

I mean Weekend drama on Netflix only, Mon/ Tue dramas are on other OTTs. Law & the City is the only weekend not on NF but its produced by CJ ENM not SD.

Acc to Namu, this one will simulcast on Netflix globally.

Probably the highest ranking for an unreleased drama this year. The main trailer also got good viewcounts on Youtube, overall a good sign.
