Hmm their new series is coming out soon, it will be out by mid 2026 but before that they will probably give some updates, I wish Miu character was written a little better this time
I started watching this drama because of Lin Yu Shen, but I couldn't even get through 10 episodes.
The Same Old Formula in Chinese Dramas This has been a major problem in Chinese legal and professional dramas: Prop or Professional? They claim it's a serious legal drama, but in the end, they always resort to "melodrama" and "relationship drama." Lack of originality: If, even in 2026, scriptwriters can't portray a strong female lead without her being entangled in past relationships, then it's truly a failure of writing.
This is unfair to the male lead. If you look at it from the male lead's perspective, he has to wait for the female lead's previous breakup to make his move. This makes him more of a "support system" than a "hero," which often diminishes the dignity of his character. A harsh truth: Dramas like "The Inner Eye" often pretend to be "high-brow," but they rely on these love triangles to boost their ratings because they think viewers will get bored just watching legal proceedings.🤦🤡
24 episodes? Seriously, this story could have been finished in 10 episodes. There are so many pointless scenes thrown in that you'll get tired of pressing the fast-forward button. The screenplay is so slow, it's like a turtle trying to lose a race. Such Weirdo screenwriters should be thrown out of Taiwan.Don't waste your time 💩
Talent is wasted when the story is weak, not when the characters don't match their age. Simply showing an age gap or a 'power play' doesn't make a drama good; true talent lies in elevating an ordinary story through exceptional acting."
Fu*k, reading the summary of this has completely blown my mind. I absolutely hate infidelity, and on top of that, Seo Kang Jun is doing a romance drama after 5 years. Ugh, why couldn't he just do a simple rom-com? I don't know how I'm going to watch this.🤯
I got to know Seo In-guk from Doom at Your Service, and I really like his acting. I hope Jisoo can express herself…
This is only his third major role. Many believe she should have started with smaller or more challenging roles instead of jumping straight into lead roles, so she could gradually hone his craft. Getting such big projects without a solid foundation feels like nepotism, only in this case, it's "idol power."
According to my analysis, its budget could be between ₹100 crore and ₹200 crore ($12M - $25M). The main reasons behind this are: 4 major reasons for the high budget:
Global Locations (International Shoots): The series was not filmed in just one country, but in Tokyo (Japan), Seoul (South Korea), and Berlin (Germany). Filming in expensive cities in Europe and Asia with a large crew significantly increases production costs. High-Profile Cast (Star Power): Ok Taecyeon is a global K-Pop and K-Drama star. He is joined by Japanese star Hayato Isomura. The fees of these two alone would constitute a significant portion of the budget. According to recent Netflix data, top Korean actors now command fees in the crores of rupees per episode.
Decade-Long Storyline (Timeline): The story covers a 10-year period. This requires significant expenditure on sets, costumes, and character looks (prosthetics/makeup) for different time periods.
Netflix's Investment Trend: Netflix has pledged to invest approximately $2.5 billion (₹20,000+ crore) in Korean content between 2023 and 2026. For original shows like "Soul Mate," they typically spend ₹15 to ₹25 crore per episode to ensure premium quality.
EP 17 Preview out https://wetv.vip/en/play/uvl99e5njd3n1ag/e41010ymb5i-Teaser_EP17%3A_The_Glamorous_Night Kinda…
Okay, so you've watched the preview up to episode 1 to 17. In the meantime, did the female lead cheat on her husband also? Or is she likely to do so later?
Netflix tag lgbtq only in some country without romance tag
This is entirely a game of geopolitics and marketing. Netflix displays only those tags that are acceptable to the viewers and government of that country, so that their app doesn't get banned there."
they should have just not made a new gfn if their gonna recast her and have a shitty actor play her we do NOT…
It's very easy to call someone's hard work "shitty" when you're sitting at home just typing on a keyboard. If you didn't like the casting, then don't watch it, but don't spread your pathetic mindset here and show everyone your poor upbringing.
