Lulu l ironique

Same it's so funny

Lol, I have the same opinion as you about all these dramas, I still haven’t been able to finish Move to Heaven and Navillera and the other two kdrama I didn’t find them good.
I was especially disappointed by TDJ whose script I found poor, it lacked something and I still don't say what.
But I’m not a good judge of popular dramas, I noticed that I don’t often share the same enthusiasm for them as others. For example IONBO is another drama that I found barely okay, in fact I'm not even sure if I did like something in it.

With a few exceptions, most of the dramas that mark me don’t make too much buzz, like My Unfamiliar family, Kairos or the recent On the verge of Insanity. These are dramas that I found really beautiful.

This drama is not only a zombie drama, It's more than that, it's all about power struggles under a zombie epidemic.. I really liked the fact that there's a political story under the mess. There is a great critique of the quest for power, how far can the human go to gain ultimate power.

Me it’s quite the opposite I didn’t understand the hype behind The Guest, I found it repetitive.

I think I have understood the mystery of this drama, even if the facts are drawn from a true story, the final revelation will be exactly like the one on Shutter Island.

The Guru is none other than the police officer himself; Knowing that everything is told from his point of view and that the dates are not really concise, I say two things to myself: either he is older Jo Kyung-Ho, or Jo Kyung-Ho is his alter-ego. He does not conduct an investigation, it is on him that a psychiatric experiment is conducted. Won-Taek, the chief of police, and Ji Seung, the prosecutor of Busan, are actually his therapists. Pay close attention to the interviews he has with them, the absurdity and paranoia of his answers, and the way they insist on certain points.

Conclusion, while the 1987 attack did happen, the rest of the story is a fantasy of the Detective who must probably suffer from schizophrenia and paranoia from the trauma of the 1987 attack. I think it was the guilt of not being able to save people or possibly of having contributed to the attacks that led him to this state of disillusionment. Or he suffers from the guilt of the survivor.

Alice in Borderland is better that this IMO... It's also on Netflix.

The original version of this drama is truly a masterpiece, don't hesitate to watch it.

I’ve tried to watch this drama twice, but there’s something that put me off and I don’t know what... I always stumble on episode 6, and I can’t go beyond that. So I realize that I’m not interested or touched by the story. Finally I dropped it.

Jung Geum Ja is a really good example...

She's a genius

As a legal advisor, I love everything that is political, procedure etc. Life is the drama that speaks to me the best with characters extremely well written, it is a vision very close to the active life, in my opinion there is no Manichaeism in the story, no real bad, no real nice... Knowing that it is a drama written by Lee Soo-yeon, the devil is in the details with her, that’s why dialogues matter a lot, and so you have to be very careful.
I truly recommend it and If you don’t have a problem watching a slow pace drama then go for it.

For my part, I would say that Ceo Gu from Life ( Cho Seung Woo) is the perfect anti hero... Although I don’t even know if we can really qualify him, in my opinion he’s just a person doing his job properly. He’s one of the best written characters I’ve ever seen in a drama, he’s neither good nor bad, just human and competent. Unfortunately for the spectator his job is defined as one who comes to hurt others.

The real ultimate anti hero for me will still be Dexter. None of his reasons were valid for doing what he was doing. Killing a killer is always killing.

American Psycho from Bret Ellis is a really good book not really easy to read but good and frankly it's better than the movie... I recommend it.

I agree with you with Lee Soo-yeon, she is a Writer I will watch everything, since then her 3 dramas are among my top 5.

Thx! I will...

I dropped all of them except Mr Sunshine, I remember watching The Heirs and I think from the 3rd episode I wondered but why do I do this to myself? 😂 . I realize I tend to like unpopular or less popular drama.

A really Good article I discover some new writer that I will Maybe add in my future watchlist.

About Kim Eun Sook IMO I found her dramas overrated, I watched (dropped) almost all of them except Mr Sunshine. I’ve come to understand that I’m not a good audience for her, her dramas seem to me like love stories for teenagers.

I love reading because it allows me to better immerse myself in the story and in the head of the person who created it, since then it has made me love to know the origin of the works made. For example in music I know now by listening a song who would potentially be the songwriter sometimes, caus I can decode many things like lyrics beat etc. The same goes for films and series, if the story is sometimes the main reason of my interest, I often choose many of my programs based on who are the Directors or Screen Writers, cause I know their trademark.

Lee Soo-yeon in kdrama is someone I will watch everything cause till now she give me a lot of satisfaction in all her dramas, same for Park Jae Bum. Hirokazu Kore-eda is my favorite japanese director, I watched all of his beautiful movies. In china Zhang Yimou is one of the best.

This drama is the drama that might reconcile me with the Chinese dramas , Since All Is Well in 2018, I have never been able to finish a single one, I have dropped 100% of the dramas started. And I have never been able to find my happiness despite the multitude of series broadcast, especially in modern romantic series. Yeah I struggled a lot with Chinese drama since a loooong moment.

So it was with a great skepticism that I started this drama and oh boy! I liked everything, the story was much deeper than it seemed. The author shows the power of appearances, how often our perception of others is totally wrong, he reminds us that grass is not always green elsewhere and that in each of us there is always something positive that we can bring to the other. Hats off to our main leads, they played each other so well that we had no problem distinguishing who was who and when. All this told with perfect humour. It wasn’t cringe or childish, I laughed so much that I couldn’t believe it myself, knowing how picky I am in the choice of dramas I watch. Guys don't hesitate it's light, fun but far from stupid.

Totally agree with you, this one is a really good drama. Another Kim Ye Ja Mind-blowing drama was The Light in Your Eyes... I strongly recommend it to you if you didn't watch it already.

After Kairos, MBC has produced another gem that unfortunately was not successful and it’s a pity because this drama is much better than many blockbusters kdrama. OTVOI has managed to deal with various serious subjects related to the office world with brilliance, accuracy and a lot of humour.

Each character was a pleasure to discover, I recognized from my colleagues in some of them, especially in HSG, unfortunately there's lots like him outside. Each character inspired me, notably CBS and his benevolence and his love for his work, DJY and her perseverance or even HSG and his total lack of confidence in his abilities.

Morality of the story: Never sacrifice yourself for the company you work for because it will never sacrifice itself for you unless you own the company. If it’s important to do your job properly, it’s just as important not to make it the sinequanone condition for your survival. It’s never too late To succeed, professional success is not about not being fired or having a huge salary, but about having values and self-esteem in a world that is increasingly rotten.

Since All Is Well, I have never been able to finish a single cdrama, I have dropped 100% of the cdramas started.

I have never been able to find my happiness despite the multitude of series broadcast, especially in modern romantic genre. So it was with a great skepticism that I started this one, which also does not have a pretty good first episode but fortunately I did not give up, because it was a very nice adventure to keep watching this drama.

Despite the lightness with which the story is told, the themes dealt with are no less important, especially the effects of the Appearances, the Writer reminded us all along that everything that shines is not necessarily gold and that if the grass always looks greener in the neighbor, it doesn’t mean that the grass is healthy.
Let’s start by giving back to Caesar what is Caesar’s, a big bravo to the cast but especially to the two main characters. Each one playing each other perfectly. By the way, this drama is so funny, I laughed like never before, all the episodes were hilarious.
