Can't believe that a normal person could survive is such toxic environment like what president Park trying to…
i love how fantastical it is tbh. he's the sane in the insanity, but everyone sees it as the other way around. the premise of the show is obviously absurd in both an american and foreign/korean context and that's part of what makes it great. love it
i enjoy it but at the same time the frustration i feel hinders me from being able to think completely. it's well done and yet so annoying. so either they're going to ruin it massively or tighten the story up and finish it off incredibly cleanly. which i believe they can do. it's ep 8 so we need to move along and get answers to solve literally anything. it's not super fun watching everyone be confused and doubt each other with such a huge sad issue on their hands.
that being said, enjoying it! i hope by next week there will be more exposition. it cannot stay this vague until the end. a "twist" isn't always a good thing and i think the show can pull this off and give us answers. after all literally every case is a "don't think too hard" type of deal
i'm wondering if i should give it another go because the first time i was finding it nearly incomprehensible,…
totally agree. i'm not sure where you're watching but i had to cave and get a viki subscription and i realized the subs i had were TERRIBLE. it makes so much more sense now. 3/4 were greaet
this woman was atrocious to watch. they're all so hot though but she was terrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrible (and so were the men, but it was about her and i cannot stand characters that are so selfish and STUPID in their selfishness but pretending to be smart for their own gain)
i think you're completely missing the point of the show
i truly think so...i am watching it now and i am pretty left and radical with my politics. i saw your comment about a month ago when i was deciding to watch but i got worried and upset so i refused. then i forgot about the comment and decided to pick it back up, since i love these type of shows. i absolutely think korea has a problem with xenophobia and antiblackness and positing south east asians as dirty or south asians as weird and islam is "strange" but i think all these nationalities shown and these awful stupid people and these absurd situations are particularly what they want to highlight, given that everywhere but also south korea is dealing with refugees it's such an issue. i, personally, feel like jung woo sung would definitely think this show is a-ok haha
i think you're completely missing the point of the show
no, what i mean is that they are setting these characters here and then saying "we're all human" instead of making a mockery. the situations aren't to encourage prejudice, but to fight it and outline the absurdities of it. against immigrants, against women, against literally anyone different, and to be open and get mad to help everyone, not just yourself
it may have been too slow for them, or just not enough but.... but it's a really beautiful drama
i guess it's a matter of preference. i think people have seen both and decide. personally i prefer this one; though i love both and both main characters. i was so immersed in this sad, sad, sad world and i think the despair and intrigue started from the beginning tbh. i understand why others wouldn't. i don't know i was really interested from the start.
she was a genuinely horrible human being. and jung ryeo won wasn't the right person for her. maybe we would have…
TOTALLY. i think your sky castle point is great (i mentioned it in my review too....great minds.) i think that sometimes when we think "strong women" we think "act like men" when that's not it at all. it's standing up for yourself and what you believe is right, not exploiting power and being selfish. she jeapordized everybody. i agree at the interpretation of her too.....i honestly think she is a cruel cruel woman. the romance was basically dropped btw, if you stopped at ep 12. it became too convoluted and it was clear she was just too stupid to be with someone so in the end it's vague LOL
genuinely like the show and the way it goes. the slowness is perfect for me. i have a lot of thoughts and i am a big min cheol fan. but i am PISSED at this pastor just furious. i cannot believe this. that was a pretty deep thing to reveal to catch us off guard
that being said, enjoying it! i hope by next week there will be more exposition. it cannot stay this vague until the end. a "twist" isn't always a good thing and i think the show can pull this off and give us answers. after all literally every case is a "don't think too hard" type of deal
i couldnt even finish ep 2 i was /that/ confused. i wonder how people feel about 3-4 cos i really want another thriller....
her husband is also dumb as hell
and that ending was trash
sry for the wall of text
i will have you know that i literally just started, on ep 2, and i fucking love it
