She played Kim Young Kwang's love in On Her Wedding Day. He is 189 cm, she is 158. They were cute together. She…
Kwangsoo is playing a villain and has a long-term girlfriend, so I don’t mean romantic-cute, but funny-cute, and a bit scary considering the situation in the drama. She’s able to fend him off using objects larger than him though, like cars.
Kim Sungcheol is one hell of an actor.I had difficulty seeing Lee Kwangsoo as anything other than a comedian,…
Favourite Scenes In Episodes 7 & 8:
Woogi: Rooftop scene where he broke down, farm scene where he refused to give up details on Heeju, and holding Heeju’s arm to shoot that guy.
Park Hocheol: Fight scene in the car dealer’s office, and the scene where he was torturing Woogi.
Heeju ramming her car into the farm was *chef’s kiss*. Girl’s getting smarter not to trust anyone or give up, and not show up herself to places when threatened. I liked when she took the detective’s car keys. At this point she’s even more driven to keep the gold than Woogi. Just take everything you can and run to France with Woogi and your mom, fighting girlll! ✊🏼
I had difficulty seeing Lee Kwangsoo as anything other than a comedian, now I’ll have difficulty seeing the comedian in him. He played this villain character too damn well.
The drama is okay but not what it was advertised, I see no villains here
When lead characters are actually villainous, a large number of viewers say they hate the leads and the show, the leads are unlikeable and unrelatable, so it’s unlikely a romcom would have truly evil villains as leads. Viewers can barely handle complex characters. So it’s understandable why they went for “misunderstood villains”.
I was expecting both of them to be fiesty towards each other and for their relationship to be enemies-to-lovers, but he’s so down bad for her and I love it!
i m on ep 3 little bit confused, why this show is giving some copy vibes of "stranger things"?? i mean…
There are many, MANY shows and movies like this, and a lot are based on comic books from the 80s and 90s. X-Men, The Boys, The Umbrella Academy, etc. Well-known heroes like Spiderman and Captain America are the result of lab experiments too, as are villains like Venom. A lot of Korean shows like this too, like Awaken. Scientists experimenting on humans and them acquiring superpowers and either praising or despising their “creator” is a pretty common concept in superhero movies and shows. Stranger Things isn’t the first.
Fun drama!Park Eunbin usually plays more toned-down or serious, meaningful roles, so it was fun to watch her have…
- Why halmeoni (the grandma) funded the experiments the first time - The “side effects” - How exactly powers were attained from the wastewater (during the experiment the formulas were being injected, but in the wastewater it was entering people through the nose or mouth or skin, how does that work too?) - The difference between getting powers from the experiments directly versus from spillage/wastewater
Park Eunbin usually plays more toned-down or serious, meaningful roles, so it was fun to watch her have fun and go ham here. Eun Chaeni is so fun! And the trio is absolutely hilarious.
Bae Nara is so good at playing troubled villains.
I know almost every actor in this drama but the two women on the villain team are my new discoveries. I have watched the mind control woman before but she stood out to me more here, as did the illusionist. The actors were so good, and their powers were so cool! I’m glad they got adequate screentime.
Great first episode! I’m a little tired of 6-10 episode dramas where everything happens super quick and the plot progresses too fast with no room to breathe. I like “staying” in a drama I like for a nice stretch of time, so I’m glad they’re telling us the story slowly and giving us funny and interesting scenes that don’t necessarily drive the plot forward, they’re just there to entertain us. The main leads and their characters are super fun to watch (but I feel for them too as they seem misunderstood). I like my women dominant, and I like my men a little afraid of their women, and this drama is setting up for it well. I’m looking forward to the next episodes, this drama is fun, unique, and refreshing!
does she get foresight ability? like she can predict some calamity
She probably has those old-world superstitious beliefs which can turn out true in fantasy dramas, plus she made it high up in ranks in the palace so she probably has instincts to detect assassins, traitors, etc. She was very smart and perceptive for the era and that can come in handy in the present too.
The first episode was good! I really like the ML’s voice, but I wished his hair was styled differently lol
Right now he’s a “villain” so he has the classic villain chaebol hairstyle. I’m guessing they’ll give him a softer look in later episodes when he’s a “romantic lead” in the story.
When you get your hands on money you’re not supposed to, DON’T go around flaunting it first thing. Don’t buy a new car, don’t buy flashy new clothes and jewelry. Someone who knows who you are will see you and go tell higher-ups in the gang about your new lavish lifestyle, and they’ll figure out something’s up. Keep living low-key and use the money discreetly, keep indulgences very private.

Overall, the powers reminded me of X-Men.
I wish they had expanded further on:
