luckily junyoung had a breakthrough with his supporting roles, but yeah, he hasn’t had his breakthrough as a…
I'm excited for this project and heard what u said but tbh deep down i feel its not gonna get massive success like crown prince or boyfriend on demand....no matter how poorly executed or bad acting was in them ..shows like them n many more thrive through huge blind fan following or massive pr.... (to clarify- no hate for any actor but the shows were terrible ..great for those who genuinely enjoyed but they were just not it...i was stunned with the crazy viewership ratings). Anyway its gonna be tough battle for him ....sometimes i just pity bc other actors deserve some love too :'( and i hope i dont offend any fan of CP or BoD but sometimes its okay to criticise your favs....constructive criticism exist for a reason - no harm in that ig - bc we want to see our favs grow n become better n better !
This guy still hasn’t had his breakthrough script like other K-actors.... Even rookies like Lee Chae-min and Kim Jae-won have started gaining attention (which they absolutely deserve) but I feel like Lee Jun-young still isn’t getting the global recognition he deserves.....He’s one of the most hardworking actors out there....Lately it feels like the K-industry only chases shiny name tags and trendy actors. Talented and underrated actors like Kim Jung-hyun, Heo Nam-jun, Steve Noh, Kang Ha-neul and Lee Jun-young are barely getting shows despite their skills....Why is that? Who’s actually getting the scripts.. I’m just thinking--- sometimes it really feels like talent alone isn’t enough to break through in this industry. edit:- 1. KHN -he comp have more projects still not many ML ..also hv some amazing movie but with quite a gap between them 2. by break through script (for LJY) - I mean that cultural fandom project which gets him global recognition.....altho as support lead he did bag some decent projects
I personally don't see the stabbing as a plot device for Ina to realize her feelings. I actually saw it as an…
yeah ig it had 2 purposes one -that person above mentioned it acted as trigger point for ina n other being easy exit out of jae yeol's plan as u mentioned
She had realised her feelings way before knife attack, she was just not admitting it as she didn't wanted to get…
1. thats what i want to say that knife attack wasnt needed to be the "trigger point" to realise her feelings...they could hv done it differently ...again it not actors fault they are giving us their best 2. I don’t want a perfect or always composed ML either....I think my issue was more with how the scene was executed. For me the football jealousy leaned a bit too heavily into exaggerated “cute childish boyfriend” energy so it lost some of the emotional nuance his character .... I feel the same jealousy could hv felt deeper if they showed more inner conflict along with the outward reactions in diff way— like him trying hard not to react but failing, getting visibly distracted, becoming competitive in a restrained way n their are many more ways to do it...So it’s not really that he became vulnerable or foolish in love....its just that the writing could hv balanced the humor with a little more emotional subtlety so it felt less tropey and more naturally human .... but its fine to hv different expectation i get your points too
i was personally enjoying the show until ep 7.... the knife attack was so not needed to make her realise her feeling ..i hate it when writers do this...was this necessary in show ? not at all ...also someone said - "ML character Gi Jun changes from one of being confident, smart, to that of insecurity, acting foolishly at times. " - i get it the idea was to make him look like a jealous cute lil puppy but it worked opp. ... also the show had fun -light vibe yet it kept moving towards the plot...i hv no complains about the acting its the script giving me ick now..lets see wat we get in coming episodes.. the show might redeem itself
probably its the pity for Kim Jae Ucks characters in this show but to me the idea of Ju In Na and him as pair together doesnt sound bad but im well aware the script goes as No Gi Jun x Ju In Na...As far its for secrectary n her feeling getting rejected multiple times it feels forced if KJU accepts her in the end ....wouldnt feel like it iykyk .. liek trying to make a forceful pair with 2 ppl who had sad lives.......6 eps are still left and feelings have been confessed thinking wat are they planning to do w next 6 eps probably 2 more eps will dwell on the past of Ju in na and ceo n maybe her feeling confessions to No gi jun
lol no you are not the only one I was watching for BWS you can be a fan of him Im not a stand, i couldn't go through…
its crazy if u voice that perfect crown is just not it ppl will come down hunting you looool esp in their own show section...No hate i hv enjoyed some of their previous works but this show got me fast forwarding n then eventually dropping.. 🥴 bws face felt plumpy with all work done couldnt enjoy his acting much n as for iu n his chemistry it felt lacking...great visuals but its not clicking not to forget Steve Noh- what an eye candyyy 😋 hehehe but i cant tolerate the show just for him...looking forward to see him more amazing shows !
omggggg finalllyyy a series i can enjoyyy in this kdrama rut! The chemistry is chemistrying 🤩...loving the acting so far cant wait for next weekend 😍 the rating is so low :(
For future viewers... I have not even started the show yet (i plan to) BUT i can tell its going to be FIREE for 2 simple reasons 1. THE CAST is so PROMISINGGG (seo yea ji, woo do hwan, ok taecyeon and the supporting actors so many of them are talented) 2. ALMOST 9 YEARSS since the show telecasted ppl in comment section are still WISHING IF THEY CAN MAKE MORES SHOWS LIKE THIS! QUALITY AND TALENT SPEAKS FOR ITSELF !! :)
Unpopular opinion: I'm just not feeling the hype for this one. The romance lacks chemistry, the characters feel…
yeah i feel the same even though i have enjoyed previous works of leads n s-leads but its just not clicking no hate..great for those who are enjoying !
now i can imagine her...she'll look great fr ...but i am not sure if she'll be able to carry the authority of queen...maybe a softie princess at max :(
Happy birthday Haraboji :) i'm currently watching red sleeves and the cast is CASTINGGG! loved all his scenes with san ah..the acting was purely magical
loved the 1st ep had good laugh.... 🤩 show def looks promising .. 🥹 IJY- im impressed w her....looking forward to this show...it better not go down hill 😭
Just an opinion pls dont take it hard: I think it would have been so interesting to have Kim Joong-hee as the crazy guy in "Gold Land" against Park Bo-young... Lee Kwang-soo is a grt actor (love him) but this role is... its just not clicking :(
Kim Joong Hee - Manh! his smile was soooo creepy n scary as lawyer in "The Manipulated".... that one scene was way better than acting of Do kyung in whole show... DK felt like spoiled rich kid w no control (which ik was to some extent part of the role) but he failed to deliver as "crazy guy running such criminal pyscho activities behind the scenes...".
No hate just a personal take...either way enjoyed the show and look forward to enjoy gold land as well :) P.s...Actors like Choi Min-sik (in I Saw the Devil) n Park Sung-woong hv that elite.. commanding criminal aura—u just feel they’re dangerous w/o much try
Then u hv more stylized n chilling performers like : Kim Jae-wook (in voice n death's game), Lee Dong-wook (in strangers from hell) n Kim Ji-hoon (in Death's Game, Ballerina, worst of evil etc) who mix charm w unpredictability really well
For more grounded n realistic creeps: Kang Ha-neul ( he got that creepy smile tho!), Ok Taec-yeon (in vincenzo) n Wi ha joon (in midnight), Im Si-wan (in unlocked) stand out... n kim bum too? maybe?
Then there’s the rising/versatile group: Lee Jun-young (he desrves a break hrough liek byeon woo..really hardworking guy, Kim Jung-hyun( he was great in Siren's kiss), Heo Nam-jun ( in honour etc), Kim Young-kwang (in trigger etc) n Kim Sung-cheol (he got one upcoming crazy guy role)—they hv that potential, subtle instability n range that can turn into really strong villain roles
Lastly, supp actors like Huh Joon-ho, Heo Hyeong-gyu n Oh Man-seok lean more towards authority or slightly theatrical villains unsettling vibe with their creepy eyes and smile manh....
would have been so interesting to have him as the crazy guy in "Gold Land' against Park Bo-Young ... Lee Kwang Soo is grt actor but this role is its just not clicking him... Kim Joong Hee man his smile was soooo screepy n scary as lawyer in "The Manipulated" ....the one scene was better than acting of Do kyung in whole show he felt like spoiled rich kid w no control but failed to deliver as crazy guy ...no hate just a personal take...either way enjoyed the show!
Where is our Diva💅✨ ? 🤧 why are there no upcoming projects ? 🫠 When are we get her new dramas? 😭 such an amazing talent getting wasted......while we are getting boring dramas n lifeless acting these days 🥲
