I didn't expect this to be so good! Seeing the gender roles inverted clearly points out how the society is still patriarchal. It's like "if I were a boy" MV , but the other way round.
Isn't it supposed to be sci-fi? The sci part doesn't make much sense. The characters are supposed to be smart, but they're quite the opposite. Disappointed.
Jae Eon is a playboy and a manipulator with some kind of trauma, Na-bi is a pathetic girl with a trauma who is constantly manipulated and is learning to do it herself (consciously or not). Both have a trash side of them and I hope they will become better people, just not together.
At least we have Yao Lu! I think he's the best actor playing "the uncle".
I don't think he's a bad actor at all and I loved him in L&R, but so far I'm not convinced by his Wu Xie..maybe he wanted to show his take on the character?
I've found this I think interesting article about the drama. https://www.jaynestars.com/news/did-murder-diarys-unconventional-plot-backfire/ "Murder Diary features more intricate storytelling with interconnected cases. Although it already disclosed the identity of the Final Boss very early on in the third episode, chilling details are slowly exposed as the drama focuses on the crime setup which is the soul of every good mystery. Unlike previous TVB dramas, where characters are usually introduced in a straightforward manner with many descriptors, Murder Diary takes its time to flesh out complex characters. Due to some characters suffering mental illnesses, their motives and actions add to the perplexity of the crime drama where traditional logic does not apply."
Wait guys what happened with Do Jae Jin and Yang Hye Sun at the end? Like what’d she do with her marble? Did…
She made a wish for him to not go in the military, but everybody knows what you need to be careful with what you wish for. He won't have to go to the military after her wish, because he got hit by the white truck of doom and is now in a vegetative state.
Given TVN standards, I don't even understand why tvn even had to pick DAYS with that poorly written script they…
I've found more moral and philosophical messages in DAYS, but both were enjoyable in their own way. My comparison wasn't in quality to begin with, just stating the noticeable and undeniable fact that they have many similar aspects in their stories. There was no need to compare who we like more.
