Oooh this kdrama has Korean-American Actor John Cho debuting in a kdrama.... He is the first Asian American actor in history to headline a mainstream thriller film in Hollywood, and the first Asian American actor cast as a romantic lead in a USA romantic comedy series.
My fav is his comedy series SELFIE IGNITE that was discontinued bc ... it is too good and positive and is like a kdrama. WATCH SELFIE FOR FREE HERE: https://www.facebook.com/watch/selfieignite/195074169498439/ Please ask to continue filming it and have season 2. It is AWESOME. SOOO FUN.
About John Cho: he is in the classic comedy Harold and Kumar go to White Castle where two 2nd gen Asian and Indian get high on pot, like white ppl do, and cause trouble. Cho gave interviews saying that in real life he doesnt do pot.
He just has to accept ANY role they give him bc he gets so few, since Asian actors are very rare in american movies and series. In other words, there is a severe racial discrimination in the USA and it shows in the media and entertainment big time.
Breaking! 100 episodes have been added to this drama. Yipee!It does not seem to end soon, with bad scenes on top…
Please remember to mention actor John Cho from Seoul, Korea, as the first Asian American actor in history to headline a mainstream thriller film in Hollywood and the first Asian actor to be the ML in a romantic comedy -
I LOVE his role as Henry in the hillarious wonderful - and thus discontinued - comedy series Selfie. You can see it on facebook, all 13 episodes, for free. https://www.facebook.com/watch/selfieignite/195074169498439/ HIGHLY recommended it is HILLARIOUS and has wonderful acting. The story is well.. american story so there is stuff.... but ... there is also profound stuff and it is a great "feeling" and character development My fav scene ever is when the three of them have a dance party and livestream it
He also acted in some other now-classic comedies Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle where he is a pot head, but he said in interviews he does not do pot.
He just HAS to accept any role offered to him bc he gets just few offers because there is racial discrimination in american movies and there are sooooo few Asian actors and roles https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Cho
Totally agree. Great scene. Both actors were wonderful. Less important: That purple suit is so ugly and distracting…
Yes SukJa actress was always phenomenal I was laughing thinking of throwing that hideous suit that looks like a cheap loan shark or a poor civil servant suit... LOL Imo that suit shows GC's insecurity and still feeling poor and having to grab money.. It looks like a suit he wore as a poor prosecutor back then...
I think in kdramas the clothing is made to match the character and is important. So I think they dressed GC in such cheap murky colored suits with ugly shirts and ties to show him off better as a villain... to show his confusion and lack of brightness in his life... his lack of vision, his not feeling like a rich man who can get nicely dressed, etc etc. HE IS DRESSED LIKE A CHEAP POOR PROSECUTOR or something like that... he doesnt look the part of a chaebol Chairman. I think his cheap suit is meant to show his INSECURITY and him being stuck in the "poor" mode grabbing for money
Exactly, a perfect successful art dealer :) He deals with fickle egoistical buyers and artists and always has to stay on the safe ground - so he has to be 100000% diplomatic... At first I thought he was slimey cheater liar and matches SeRi well. Later I realized that he does have integrity
Yeah as ppl said, GC is effectivelly the ML in this drama bc he and JI get the most scenes... So GC is now experiencing remorse and that scene with his mom was just amazing. He is deeply regretting - BUT now there is TH as a competitor, plus the kid is not his. So what will GC do now? CAN he act in old ways and try to kill them, or to kidnap JI and keep her captive as his woman?
Oh what is Theo's name? I thought he was Tae Ha or Theo?
Gi Chan actor graduated, imo. The scene between him and his mom is AMAZING. Also, his scene in the doctor's office. GC shows genuine deep feeling of remorse
Also, for the first time, his suit was good looking on him in that scene with the doctor, and esp since he acted that scene so well!!!! that deep shade of blue was amazing. THen later he wore some .. omg sleezy cheap looking light purple brown suit, I have NEVER seen anything so ugly in any kdrama...
Tae Ho is super well dressed, and ah so suave, he is a diplomat 100% But I dont think he is for Jae In.
I dont think Do Yoon is for Jae In either!!!! he is too ... wet noodle as someone said in a comment... he needs to get some umph. "I liked you first" is NOT a thing to say to a woman, but to an item on sale at the shopping mall...
quite a good drama, although some of the forced humor feels awkward.the ending is not bad but kinda dragged in…
@arcturuz what is the ending - the daughter goes to med school and her boyfriend goes to Germany and then he comes home to visit and they go visit him - seems like they stay together?
I wish that Bo Hyeon MOVED THAT HAIR OUT OF HIS EYES!!!! gosh could not see him under that hair and always was afraid the hair will poke his eyes out and/or infect them.
What kind of manga fashion is that, to put hair straight INTO eyes... ???? It's ok in a cartoon but NOT on live ppl...
Watch Buried Hearts for peak PHS visuals. Also Happiness :DHe's got a great face card and can emote if need be,…
Oh yeah, thanks! that song is amazing, such a slow burn!!!! It is excellent for modern style belly dance :) I will use it :) I will check out the drama Oh I tried watching the drama back then, and it was too.... choppy for me. He is an excellent actor, I agree, and is great as a villain and as a lovey dovey
I also didn't like how Do Yun treated Na Ra- especially with the way he informed her that someone died in the…
Yeah, that's it, he SAID that he didnt blame her but behaved opposite, and that discrepancy between his actions and words made him a douchebag. I like your solution for letting her feel like she contributed and also letting her feel guilty. And yeah, a stove should have not been left on... I wondered if Suk Ja told the truth that they were so poor and hungry and NaRa snuck in there to steal some food bc she was starving. Suk Ja often lies so this might have been made up, but sometimes she tells the truth, so... what actually happened to Na Ra.... ? In any case, she does need therapy. DY should have recommended someone good
Lots of good stuff in today's episode! We had Take 2 of GC beseeching JI to get back together,and this was not…
SR is like 3 ft tall and weighs about 100lbs at most.... so to strangle an adult male who is apparently around 6ft and with corresponding weight... is ... well.... like a mouse going to kill a tiger... she has no chance... BUT SHE CAN PAY SOMEONE TO DO IT :) Or ... she can do it with poison :)
I hope he will find out in this week’s episodes (still 3 left) and not in ep 100!
Omg this ends next week!!! W Th Fr M T W Th Fr to wrap it all up!!!!! 8x30 = 240 minutes,,, Oh that's why they skilled the 4 baseball nights and one extra night, so that it can end of Friday as oringally planned...
Did the writers forget that GC whispered in Jae-In’s ear “your first mistake was marrying me” so where did…
GC is a complex psychotic character :) He is very very confused. He grew up in a "loving" family, and "loving" mother taught him that money is everything and committed crimes with him, yet on the other hand pushed the idea of good family, nobility and purity. GC IS MESSED UP FROM THE START... It is normal for him to be delusional...
After thinking about what @TooEmotional said about JiHo, I think a good solution then is that Jae In and DY go on a little business-and-plasure trip to the USA to help TH and JH carry the paintings back to the USA .... :) and thus help JH to make the transition..... and then Jae In and DY can stay in TH house for a week so that they can help JH acclimate ... and then video call occassionally to keep in touch... But JH wil do fine.... TH will have to find him a great nanny though..... .... TH seems to travel a lot to buy and sell the art... Perhaps he can take JH with him out of school season.. but during school... JH needs someone steady at home.
Hm NaRa as a nanny? I dont think so. I never saw her play with Ji Ho, GiMan... as the nanny? He plays with Ji Ho well but ... I dont think he should go - although - once the whole family goes to jail, what will happen with Gi Man??? Na Ra can work but Gi Man... if he is NOT faking it, where woudl he go.??? Gi Man did bad stuff but he wasnt a mean evil person, just a spoiled brat, also he had a drinking problem etc as a spoiled brat... and his mother is responsible for causing a lot of that... And Gi Man just like Na Ra seem somewhat mentally disabled and slow....
I think Kangs will need to be generous enough to spend a few pennies to help Gi Man and help Na Ra off to a good start...
