@pyrus Exactly why I was so sure there’d be another part because the whole Wu Feng origin being connected to the Gong lineage and Weishan’s possible back story might pit the 2 leads against each other for a showdown. Tragic ending is a given for the leads for me at this point. Maybe a surprisingly successful couple would be Shang Jue and Qian having mended her way with a child on the way… the possibilities seem wasted with a rushed ending like that.
@Pyrus While I agree with you on the storytelling technique , the big reveal by both the antagonist and male lead doesn’t wrap it up neatly. Because the protagonist, which is the female lead, still had more to contribute. I’m not saying it should be a cookie cutter narrative with a predictable ending. But leaving a key character’s graph incomplete just because she’s a mysterious female lead doesn’t do justice to an otherwise extremely well made show. But that’s just my opinion.
This is one of the best part 1 endings I’ve watched in a long while. Now we just need to patiently wait for part 2. cause not getting one would be criminal. Period.
First drama I saw him in was "I Can hear your voice " but I didn't really pay attention to him,later I watched…
But VIP confirmed that he can excel in negative roles as well. Not everyone can pull off duality / grey characters and downright menacing masks in mainstream easily...
Even the Undateables? I thought it was a train-wreck. Even he couldn't save it.
That one was a train-wreck. But man showed how a good rom-com ML can still hard-carry a whole lousy drama. And man looked every bit the part. 😇 always delivers
are dramas an accurate representation of reality? no are dramas an accurate representation of the ideal? no no one is entirely good or entirely bad. but characters usually are modelled around real people/actions/situations. then why do we hold all characters to lofty ideals in that case?
any way to watch eps 59-67? can't track these on viki/youtube/wetv/kissasian/dramacool/kisskh/myasiantv... is there a different name by which to search? someone please help!
Imagine Hui and Jay being selected in top 9. The group would be vocally talented and cannot imagine the power…
their styles are different but they'd harmonize so well. In fact, they'd bring versatility of range into the group.... and it's always a great idea to have a composer/producer in the group (like Suga and Woozi if you get the drift) ah well. it was a talented top 18 this time... Jong Yoo, Park Han Bin, Seung Eon, Keita and Jay are outstanding as well.
Maybe a big group like Seventeen could've been the goal... imagine the sub-units! endless possibilities!
no one's talking about Hui / Lee Hoe Taek... :( there was none more accomplished and naturally deserving to be in the lineup. 2 out of 9 even mentioned him in their speeches! amidst all the people to be thanked through tear-stained minds at such a juncture is a testament to how much he's been a pillar to these young'uns. He could've come on to the show as a Master as well tbh!
But that’s just my opinion.

ML - Nam Joo Hyuk / Choi Minho / Park Jin Young / Nam Yoon Soo
Possible options…
