This drama is a nightmare (in a good way). I've rarely seen anything so disgusting. Very good makjang with elaborate writing (the structure of the script is obviously prepared in advance, unlike the old makjang that added twists and turns out of nowhere). The lead actress is very good, and of course my favourite actress Park Ha Na too, in a poisonous role. Her mother and the other supporting characters are good too. A drama far better than "Mysterious Personal Shopper" for now, whose supporting characters were boring.
3 new profiles created today, certainly by the same person, for only one goal : To write a 10/10/10/10 review in less than two hours... Pathetic. The "literary" style change was useless, so rude and easy to discern.
Guys i have a important question for all of you before the third and fourth episode will air today. My question…
Seo Ye Ji was already a good actress, but her cold physique or the writing of her characters didn't suit her. Here, on the other hand, everything is perfect. My impression is that this is her best role. I haven't seen her older dramas though.
Ahhh! The scenes between episode 29 and 30. The sound effects in the bathroom and the smell of poo. :-D (I'm pretty sure she didn't wash her hands on her way to lunch after pooping.) Tae Joon's mom is such a walking disaster. She's involved in triggering the worst situations in the drama. The character is damn well written.
Not just the best pilot episode ever, the best first 10-15 minutes. Any dramas I've seen that come close to this…
That's an interesting opinion, although I find it a little too enthusiastic. The question of what makes a good first episode is rarely discussed, so thank you for doing so. The very first scene is indeed one of the best. Not the first 20 minutes or the whole episode. Detailing point by point would be a bit long, and would require a lot of comparison examples. However, it was perhaps the best choice of exposure for the drama scenario. It's impossible to know, you would have to have seen the whole drama, and think about other options. There are the essentials for attracting the spectator to the drama, that's enough. And you're right, some dramas with very good visuals can be also very boring. Difficult to find the good balance. I rely first about the story, not visuals.
First of all this tv series is not for everyone. It tackles parallel universe and time travel and that in itself…
I saw Inception again a few days ago. It was pretty funny after I suffered TKEM. I can say that Inception is the complete opposite of TKEM. In this movie, the set-up is perfect, and takes the first 50 minutes, while being attractive. The universe and the rules are laid out in a clear, logical and spectacular way. This allows the spectator to be immersed in the rest of the film, which regularly benefits from additional explanations or unambiguous visuals. Everything that TKEM has been unable to do. Not only that, but the drama did the perfect opposite. Almost all the plot-twists were trashed because of the lack of clarity. Plot-twist in small numbers, by the way. TKEM's storytelling is zero. Any science fiction fan like me has no chance of appreciating a mess like this.
didnot understand the ending at all quite confusing though!!!can someone explain?start was great though.
To finish, the manhwa must eliminate either the hero or all the antagonists. The last scene shows Kang Chul dying, but that's not the real reason why the manhwa ends. Oh Sung Moo eliminated Han Chul Ho, one of the antagonists. The scene is not shown in the manhwa because it's out of context. Then he drives to the end scene and sees his daughter. At this point, he disintegrates because he didn't follow the logic that should have been his character's (being a antagonist). He helped the hero instead of eliminating him. The manhwa come at the end. No more antagonists. Kang Chul's return to the real world : During the scene of the interrogation, Do Yoon had revealed a piece of information to Han Chul Ho (it is assumed that Kang Chul had told him before). Kang Chul had guessed that at the end of the manhwa, the surviving character (hero or antagonist) could travel freely between worlds. Certainly because the character no longer has to endure the law of manhwa requiring an end of chapter. I think this is all good, but I regret that the screenwriter didn't explain more about the phenomena during the second half of the drama. Or sometimes it is explained, but a little too quickly, it should have been recapitulated a bit and helped the viewer more.
Guys Which is better' W - two worlds ' or ' Pinocchio ' ??Please explain why ...Thank you...
W is better, but Pinocchio is excellent too. After seeing W twice, I couldn't see any more dramas. Then, I was lucky enough to see Pinocchio, which is a drama good enough to pass this milestone. Anyway, both writers are among my favourites. It will be difficult to compare them, they deal with different subjects in different ways.
If there is one thing TVN cannot do, is creating a story that is interesting for the full 16 episodes. Reviewing…
Interesting opinion I wouldn't be able to gauge. I remember a few good and exciting TvN dramas from start to finish, and probably many more that had the cited flaw. Rewriting an episode in less than a week and breaking correlations with subsequent episodes seems such a difficult task. It is also necessary to rewrite the sequel. Unless the writer hasn't written the episodes yet? I'm curious to know more about the other side of the set.
Romance is a bonus book is actually the first kdrama I ever watched
This is crazy. I've been watching drama since 2010, and you already have more drama on your list. ^^ (I still watched long ones, sageuk of 50, 60 one hour episodes)
Of course not, only bad one are childsih.Or good ones, but designed for kids, like Harry potter.
I wouldnt like it if it was the case. Take another example of the same kind "Memories of the Alhambra" by the same screenwriter. Or international movies like "cube", "shining", and many others. I don't say HP is bad, it's quite good, but not the kind of thing I like.
Of course not, only bad one are childsih.Or good ones, but designed for kids, like Harry potter.
I saw the first HP movie, a classic hollywood blockbuster made for kids. W is a story whose logic is comparable to the stories in the "Twilight Zone" series, if you know (it was made in the 60s).
The main actors are particularly good. Seo Joon Young is an actor I didn't know, and he brilliantly makes his…
My "Makjang" Predictions Episode 25: - Se Jin has a miscarriage. - The writers torture Nae Yeon to the extreme, and she dies, the revenge will be accomplished by her double. - Her death is caused by her own father, who will go half crazy when he learns that he caused the loss of his own daughter. - Nae Yeon's daughter isn't safe from dying, too. Either at the same time as her mother or before, to destroy Nae Yeon even more, and give eternal regrets to Tae Jeon. - Otherwise, Nae Yeon's daughter is taken over by Se Jin and her future husband. This will compensate for the loss of her own child. She may be barren after that.
The main actors are particularly good. Seo Joon Young is an actor I didn't know, and he brilliantly makes his tormented character understandable, while the spectator has no access to the inside of his mind. Perhaps being used to this type of story, I feel like I can guess some of the twists and turns in advance. Just imagine the worst situation, that's often what happens. ^^
For me it wasn't that bad as other people said. You have to have patience as the buildup is slower than other…
The main reason I started watching is because I like this kind of drama, when it's well done. Consistency of the fantasy phenomenon, not deus ex machina.

Erotic tension : 10

Of course, I exagerate a little bit. ;-)

But I don't know if it do really something...
