Aramintai

Well, she's 23 (24 by Korean system), it's practically a teen by today's standarts, especially for those living rich sheltered lives.
What's more impressive is how ML, not being much older than her, judging by kids scenes, is already a superman press-secretary for the government in a country where seniority system is king. But then again, he's a nepobaby, so that also counts...
The only thing I can't figure out is how she's friends with SML - he's 10 years older than her. What, he went to college much later?

The husband is not much brighter than her. I was about to bang my head against a wall a couple of times after seeing his sheer stupidity.
They're made for each other, I guess, dumbasses the two of them, who can't properly communicate with people, lol. This plot would not have happened if they just sat and talked like normal people, preferrably 3 years ago.

Yea, this drama seriously tests my ability to close eyes on dumbassery. And the severity of it grows exponentially with every episode so it's really frustrating. Then there's also the case of cheese that is aging quite fast into some kind of makjang type.
So while it's entertaining and is causing a reaction, it's not in a way I'd like. The fresh idea of a disfunctional married couple only being able to talk properly through phone calls is the only thing that keeps me going here. But that incessant makjang and switcheroo bs of a mute turning out not to be a mute, a deaf one not being deaf, children not being real ones, hiding serial killers in the making in the basement , chaebol bishes bishing around, etc. is really wearing me down here.

Just one movie in the sea of mediocrity. A real outlier instead of good representative of a whole.

This is why kmovies are worse than kdramas. Very meh for the most part with some even lacking kdrama quality.

The further it goes the dumber the cheese becomes. Jeez...

What are even your preferences?
It had Alchemy of Souls, A Business Proposal, Extraordinary Attorney Woo, Crazy Love, Gaus Electronics, Little Women, Tomorrow, The Glory, One Dollar Lawyer, Military Prosecutor Doberman, May It Please The Court, Blind...
If you didn't like any of those what are you even doing here? Jeez..

2022 was pretty stacked.

Was more or less ok in the first half, but the second half was some unrealistic action flick bs. Even CLOY looked more realistic and that's hilarious.

Not a fan of FL actress, but this looks funny. Gotta check it out.

Ok then. I don't care if it's complex or not, I just prefer ones that don't throw logic out the window for the sake of cheese and makjang.

If you mean that one movie that got an oscar it's an outlier. Somehow kdramas quality overall is on par or greater than their movies usually.

What it it? The regular police was already mentioned - it was reasonable to suggest they would blab. Secret Service probably covers a dozen scandals a day defending government officials though, it's their job.

Wdym, k-movies are usually worse than kdramas.

If it continues to stay fresh with the idea I'll stick around, I guess. But it's rather hard to close eyes on the cheesefest. Not seeing where such high score is so far though.

Seriously?

I've just started it and watched the first two episodes. The premise is very fresh on the one hand, but everything else is quite cheesy. Does it get better?
ML is basically a superman press-secretary, who misuses government resources to find his stalker, instead of giving this case to whatever Secret Service analogue they have there is SK. His press-secretary office members are also apparently all seasoned IT wizzes with professional tracking equipment on standby. He also looks like one of those men who's all work and impotent at home. What normal guy would never touch his wife in three years, even if the marriage was arranged?
FL is also not the sharpest tool in the shed. She doesn't plan ahead well and that photo she sent him was dumb af. From that angle there are only two explanations - she did it herself, or she has an affair. ML of course chooses to believe the latter.
Their families sound like your typical corrupt and arrogant chaebols you see in every other kdrama.

Yea, once the main intrigue was over it wasn't as exciting. And how they changed the og plot concerning grandpa at the last minute, unnecessary LDR and rushed ending kinda ruined it a bit. But acting was superb, two besties especially - FL and SFL. Their hilarious antics totally carried the show.
That's why I like Crazy Love more - the plot is well written for all episodes, with very deliberate pacing. Nothing is rushed and there's no last minute bs, or unnecessary dumb plot tropes.

She was great in 2022's Crazy Love.

I feel like something was lost in translation there 😂
