i liked this one! it's slow moving but you get to see people figure out an adult relationship in real time, mistakes and all. i actually prefer this route to the korean dramas where it just magically falls in place.
i'd recommend watching this on viki WITHOUT the comments because you have a bunch of armchair therapists complaining about the FL for the most minor shit (leaving a take out box on a table resulted in a few calling her abusive and a slob) and calling the naive younger sister everything but a child of god. the most media illiterate among us do not realize that yes, characters can be flawed and even flawed characters move the story along.
do you remember which parts had humor? I don't really remember any moments. This show was dark and tragic for…
honestly it was "ironic" funny when the guy came back to life in the second ep and that guy just killed him either way. and funny for the first ep. i genuinely thought this was going to be a dark humour type of drama that had a message of ugly on the outside doesn't mean ugly on the inside but every ugly person in this show was deeply messed up. kinda fucked up if you ask me!
this one is nicely shot but the last episode seemed so rush. it would have been nice to inject some of the dark humour from the first eps into the last ones. also did nam's mother ever know that mi mo was her granddaughter?
expected a decent progress and that the actos will reflect or something logical will come out of the ending but…
he wanted to win the election on his own, he did that. he didn't win with yui and he didn't win with his legacy. i twas more or less him doing the hard work and actually talking to his constituents and becoming a good politician. the ending was completely logical albeit, bittersweet, because a lot of people do end up regretting divorce but that change had to happen for both of these two to be better at life.
very happy ending and loved that they actually acknowledged the pandemic. all of those fears most mothers had during all this and people all coming together to help one another was very touching.
i originally thought this was a korean adaptation of followers but nope! this one is far more dramatic. it's good so far (6 eps in) but i'll power through till the end. the vapid nature of influencers in this is spot on and i don't understand those asking for more character development...when that is their character. they're nothing more than walking ads with little depth beyond that. you're not supposed to sympathize with them at all.
i'm actually glad she didn't end up with him in the end bc it would just be a reward for a dude that just...acting like a weird stalker. i would have loved to see some growth on his part and i thought him being stabbed (BY A DUDE WHO WAS A STALKER) would bring that change but nope. i feel if this show had a different soundtrack it'd be a lifetime movie or something.
