I wanted to start it but you made me loose the desire...
Oh Shit!!! I never saw a movie when there needs countless flashbacks saying a guy was a super-agent. They just kill people at amazing speed, and you understand "oh gosh, where this guy comes from?". Just see Jason Bourne. You can't even know his past and.. zamm-zaamm, put down two cops with amazing speed in a park at night before the credits!
I don't know if there is some motivation in this drama: showing he was great in the past but he's trash now? At least, it could be something ok about the story.
What a fall! Sincerely, when I started: first scene of the drama was awesome. The whole first episode was great…
Just impossible for this to be produced on every level. It's mostly a fan-fiction for fans of the drama, very easy to read for audience (visual screenplay, on top of korean screenplay format).
Maybe another screenplay, but I don't have another with cheating or sex scenes, lol! I made shorts or limited episodes. It's really long to do a full kdrama, it must be planned like a giant movie. The preparation phase alone takes months. I don't have time now, as I've lot of work to do (translation fixes, pictures). Plus, I've no ambition to be pro in this. It's faster and more effective to learn the craft as an amateur. No pressure, just pleasure.
I always note any good high-concept coming to my mind, but to this day, I've no one that may produce something as good as W2. I'd like to feel this crazy motivation of "this story want to be written, no matter what".
I go on screenwriting forums since a long time, and anyway, nothing is never greenlighted. There's around 20 movie screenplays produced each year, coming from unknow people, among 100,000 proposed. People wanting to do this job are dreaming hard! +as a profession, it's really not easy to continue. I was following a nice guy who could break-in, becoming pro, and he had to step back because it wasn't possible to have a stable situation, with regular incoming, for being able to support his family.
I know I'm beating a dead horse here (😅️), but I just had another thought about the 'Tae Seung picture ripping'…
I can forgive everything except boredom. Mi-Do could pull out a gun, I'd be ok. But this terrible story, going into endless loop, with messy subplots, and ultra-boring episodes, I just can't.
7.1 now it will go under 7 i presume no matter what ending is in mind the writers cant redeem some of the characters…
What a fall! Sincerely, when I started: first scene of the drama was awesome. The whole first episode was great screenwriting. I was confident it would be a good drama... aaaaannndd... It turns to be not only a mess, but also an epic drag, looping boredom.
I hear your voice! I'm writing kdrama. Just see my profile here with link to my blog.
I must say right away that I liked the series and I recommend watching it, but winning the lottery was the trigger…
I watched 3 first episodes, and it's excellent. However I feel like the main point of the drama is already fully done, and now it will just be a standard office drama. MC quickly changed from extreme opposites, and it's like there won't be new changes coming from the loto trigger.

I'm ok with low violence, but a drama playing it soft/too safe AND dragging out... hum... it's heavy signs. It looks like all the recent dramas I started to watch "wonderfools, bona fide killer, teach you a lesson, etc..." where comedy comes at the wrong moment, destroying any intensity (maybe what you call it soft). It's like someone drops you a candy, when you want a three stars meal.
Last scene of Ep19 was badly made. Vincenzo does nothing when he has lot of time to react. We feel very hard that writer/director forced him to be passive (and against his character), and so, anything that follow looses any impact. What could be intense and emotional moments just FLOP.
This is truly a masterpiece and, in my opinion, the best productions of S2 2026 (We’re all trying here being…
For now the drama stands in the charts of best recent historical kdramas (post 2018). Documented and focused, it reminds me something like The Nokdu Flower, but with higher budget and even a better director.

I don't think this conversation can go anywhere now, and I've said what I had to say: I find it inappropriate to equate the case of Japan with that of France.
This is the kind of thorny subject that can sometimes lead to bitter arguments, so I was happy to talk with you in a calm way. It's become rare!
Hoping to see you again on less serious topics or on the other comments of this excellent drama.

What is the most terrible, really? This? Or people living in fear on the coasts or the seas, and hundred of thousand slaves captured? (some historians even estimate to one million). France judged that without a permanent presence, it would be impossible to stop that.

I don't think there was any other way. There were expedition forces before. The britishs even came with 50 warships, bombarding and freeing thousand of slaves. But it didn't end that piracy.
The people there were lucky that France settled there instead of the britishs, because everywhere France settled, they were building lot of infrastructures (it cost more than it paid-off). Other colonizators weren't so kind. And it's a time when anyway, lot of countries were colonized. If one didn't go there, someone else did.
No, the country "Algeria", well organized as a state, didn't exist. I already mentionned it, it was a regency, mainly centered on the city of Algiers.
as much as i love the other romcoms airing right now love in disguise ( my ultimate obsession and fun ), make…
It's a long time we didn't get a drama of such quality. I'm surprised by the attention to details, could be about their meaning related to characters, foreshadowing or various setups. Some scenes are damn intense, and we don't meet any fillers, any scene is interesting in itself..
I can't continue, this drama is too boring. I jumped quickly over some scenes of episodes 10 to 12. If someone is kind enough to give me spoilers from those episodes, it would be great. Or say me if some scenes are worth it to watch and where. Here episode 10 started with endless childhood flashbacks. After the very-boring episode 9, I've no more patience.

It was just Regency of Algiers, one of the barbary small states of Mediterranea. Algeria didn't exist before France going there in 1830, building everything: roads, schools, railways, hospitals. And the main motivation was to end piracy. Most of piracy in the Mediterranean sea came from there, during centuries (16th to 19th): ships attacks, raids on coast, capturing hundred of thousand slaves over the centuries.
So I don't find that fair to compare that with Japan in Korea.
Well, well, well........
I don't know if there is some motivation in this drama: showing he was great in the past but he's trash now? At least, it could be something ok about the story.
But I don't have time, and maybe I'll never have the time... T T

Well, same faces but with a little awkward variation.
So I don't find that fair to compare that with Japan in Korea.
