Everyone has already talked about how great the drama is — from the storyline to the incredible acting by both…
I think his character and acting in The Glory made Kim Sanghak even better to watch. Otherwise we might've ended up with "nooo he's a green flag, give him another chance!". But the villainry we remember witnessing helped us not root for him like we do the usual puppy MLs!
why do I have to watch so many eps for a couple we are never going to get . Can we come back to the point of favor…
Her standing strong and having a very strong stance against getting back together is what made Eunjung a great character for me. It's not about a couple or a romantic fairytale happy ending, straight or sapphic. She actually took the "no girl dont go back to your ex" serious and although she isn't flawless, Eunjung's willpower and firmness is an example of how absolute we must be in our stance to not give another chance to a fickle person or someone who consciously hurt us no matter how much we loved them.
He needs to wear normal attire cause Typhoon 🌐 is a trading company. It is not an entertainment company &Taepoong…
I know and I understand. It’s just colourful, quirky CEOs are hard to come by, and I was hoping this would have Lee Junho as one given the early poster and teaser releases. CEOs and professionals like Ahn Bohyun’s in Itaewon Class, Namkoong Min’s in One Dollar Lawyer, and Jin Goo’s in The Auditors had a different look and vibe than the usual kept-together CEO styling and were unique and fun to watch. Not saying I completely hate the too-professional look but it has been done so many times, even by LJH himself.
In the latest poster, Lee Junho has a “normal” look instead of the highlights and earrings. Just what I was afraid of - the “cool look” was for his brat era and they gave him a more “professional” (aka the typical CEO styling for the 9000th time) look for the actual drama story. 😞
Has Kim Goeun ever had a true happily ever after with any of her drama MLs?
- Cheese In The Trap: The boyfriend was manipulative and a gaslighter. - Goblin: He kinda died? And came back but losing him and having to wait must’ve been traumatic. - TK:EM: They couldn’t truly be together because they were in different “universes”. - Yumi’s 1: ML’s “best friend” was getting in the way. And ML (Woong) was going through a bad time and projecting his insecurities onto her. - Yumi’s 2: ML (Babi) was fickle and got swayed. - Little Women: ML was constantly running around and away somewhere because people were after him etc. - You And Everything Else: ML was fickle and got swayed by her “best friend” (who was also Woong’s “best friend”).
Looks like her first crush here will be her first actual happy ending in Yumi’s 3.
I feel warmly towards Kim Jaewon after watching him in You And Everything Else, so I’m looking forward to this (was originally planning to skip it). He did well and chose an interesting role, it was unexpected and I commend him, and his acting was good!
Wait, the second male lead is that Kim Hyeon guy? I thought it was that talkative guy who always hanged out with…
It’s a bit presumptuous to judge actors based on their roles IMO. He’s a good actor with a warm and introverted personality. If you’re open to seeing him differently, you can try watching Melo Movie, GQ Korea What’s In My Bag, or the Jewel Box episode of him. Long time fans have seen how sweet and gentle he is haha, he’s the opposite of his villain characters in terms of personality, and often has soft boy looks in photoshoots and premieres. I actually find him too sweet for my tastes sometimes lmao. And if you’re going to hold on to your bias, that’s fine too, it might help you dislike his characters in future villain roles, making for a greater impact like Kim Jihoon, Kim Kwon, and Kim Youngkwang do.
Jang Dongyoon is so versatile. I want to say I wish we would see him more, but it’s good he’s selective about his projects and does one or two a year. It maintains the quality of his performance IMO.
I already love Jung Ishin/“Mantis” idc. FREE MY QUEEN!
So far I have seen zero plot progression and one Kopiko.
Mirr feels straight out of a melodrama.
The reason I like Korean fantasy shows is the “good” guys are often fun a**holes (like in Korean Odyssey, Doom At Your Service, Tale of the Nine-Tailed). Or atleast there’s a sharp or colourful antagonist. They got these cast members and had the audacity to make THIS. Or it might be a case of too many cooks spoiling the broth; there are too many characters and they are trying to tell their “stories” or focus on each one a bit within 8 episodes without giving them fun, fresh, unique characteristics. Bangwool is cool though and Ogwi might get more interesting later but that’s about it.
Ok tell me a thing actually am confused that when the egg second time broke sungmin stayed there for another 20…
Sungmin dived with the egg but Surin and the cop dived separately. The time pause waves did not pulsate through the whole body of water. It was Surin’s imagination that her and Sungmin were in the time pause. In reality her and the cop just got washed offshore.
