I came back to add this is getting really creepy, which is not my vibe. Ugh. Watching has become a chore. And I have to keep pausing. I feel triggered by severe bullying, corporate takeovers based on IRL evil corporations, forced & dysfunctional relationships, psychopaths & animal abuse. Suddenly this no longer feels like "entertainment".

I'm amazed the writer had the courage to name the villain corporation Bluestone, which is an obvious allusion to an IRL corporation with a too-similar name. I'm scared even naming them in this comment. Please pray for the writer and for me! 🙏🏼 🙏🏼

Just want to say that I ignored this show at first because I am disinterested in legal office drama, but kept hearing good things so I gave this a try and am truly enjoying it. A unique script with realistic characters well-performed by terrific actors makes for an enjoyable k-drama experience. 👏🏼

Off-topic, but she is the guest on this week's episode of the K-reality cookery show, Please Take Care of My Refrigerator Season 2 (also on Netflix).

That company name is terrible. It reminds me of the time a sharp-toothed creature bit my thumb!

The poster reminds me of the one for Reborn Rich (but with the generations reversed & a pistol.)

Who else besides Choi Eun are the "people who each had different dreams of overturning a corrupt world and living a life of dignity"?

Is this production error actually newsworthy in SK? Or is the media just making a minor oopsie into a controversy?

"…a key banner in the show, meant to read Tae Pyeong Seong Dae (太平聖代), was incorrectly displayed."

"The last character, which should be “대신할 대” (代, to mean an era or period in the banner) was mistakenly shown as “큰 대” (大, to mean large). Viewers quickly noticed, with many taking to social media to voice their disbelief."

I remember her in Healer when she looked so completely different until that scene where she got gussied up for a wedding at which time she suddenly transformed into Park Min Young!

It reminds me of the classic French film, 'Babette's Feast' (1987) about people accustomed to mere sustenance who are exposed to a delicious culinary experience prepared by an accomplished chef.

I recently rewatched Mr Queen, and my esteem for it grew even more than I had remembered. The script itself is outstanding (I won't say more so as to not spoil it for new viewers), as are the character performances. 10/10. I really hope someday to get to watch the two spin-off episodes (with subtitles).

Not just to have his children. Concubines played an important role in providing comfort, pleasure, & a safe space for the emperor to drop his guard & relax. They help alleviate the constant tensions resulting from the demands of his position. And yes, he is expected to sire at least one heir and a spare, so to speak.

Maybe try binging some K-reality cooking shows like Culinary Class Wars or Chef & My Fridge? These both are also on Netflix, are full of cooking drama, and the latter is also highly entertaining (very funny) at times.

I gotta get back to this.

I was especially tickled when the athletes appreciated their results from the cross-discipline training!

More fourth-wall breaking (actors looking directly at the camera) as well
