Finally a main role for him!

there are not as many, a lot of them tend to be movies. All set during the revolution era (pre-modern). On top of my head, there is Battle of Changsha (although it is late republican era), Minning Town, Back in Time, I Don't Want To Be Friends With You, The Bond, Dear Mayang Street, Like a Flowing River, The Year 1987, Like a Flowing River II, and Roving Inspection Team

yes! I love dramas set in the 1900s, excited for this one.

seen most of the dramas listed - C-dramas have their own charm. I am actually fascinated by Republican era dramas, probably because that is a history I have actually studied quite a bit. I do wish there were more dramas on post republican era as well

this is actually a serious issue across most Asian dramas - the constant lack of consent and the forceful behaviour (the arm grabbing, pushing her, manipulative behavior, etc) is very problematic. thank you for compiling all this. I was actually doing research on gender violence portrayal in Asian dramas during undergrad

he deserves better roles, for sure

why can't Kwon Yool get a decent character for once? but Kim Minjae is killing it as the street-smart albeit a bit dumb ML and Park Gyu Young is so lovable. she's really impressive in all her latest roles

i really want a remake! or a similar vibe drama. i love a group of friends/underdogs type stories

it definitely sounds dubbed on netflix, because no way is that Yang's voice

WHAT IN THE WORLD EVEN IS THE BBAYA TRIBE!?!? lmaoooo

Once Again was good. Watching Homemade Love Story currently and it is okay as well. What Happens to my Family is also wonderful

The Reply Series does the heart-tugging moments of families so well.

the drama would not work today, but it was lovable than. the earnest, puppy love by Gong Yoo wins you over

Nah, it is just as dramatic. But compared to My Father is Strange or those heartwarming ones, this one does have more shrill and annoying characters.

I found it so hard to even have little sympathy for Kim Seol-Ah. She chose her path, don't know why she cried over it. She chose money over everything. it was so irritating to watch her. but I can't believe they still have characters like the chairwoman/MIL. she was beyond mad

the superficialness of it all is so frustrating. girl has a little acne and everyone treats her like dirt and bullying to the point of suicidal thoughts. what sort of shitty message is that? thank god the actors weer likable and fun, otherwise it would just be frustrating

she is so irrational and jealous from day one. acts like an overgrown child throwing a tantrum.

so many shrill female characters, it drove me nuts. why are most of the women in the show in hysterics?

Ojakgyo Brothers and Shining Inheritance are really good for their romances as well.

I need more sitcoms like this without exaggerated villains.
