Shine Son

This could have been more interesting if Patrick Jane helped out Mugyeong’s team. Haha.

When will your hibernating be over? Please give us a new project!

His tanned look makes him looks like Son Ho Jun.

That would be a more wholesome hope for the villains which many if not most would want to happen. But DON’T DIE, GET REVENGE is not as wholesome as we’d want it to sound, really. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Realizing that the client is not the first victim and many other lives had already been destroyed prior, there could be some justice in the death of the villains. What makes them “deserve” death is how they did not show even a hint of remorse for the evil they’ve done. It’s the common thread among these Season 3 villains so far.

Ah, yes. I see your point. I guess I do not know much about SK entertainment business, in particular, idol groups, to be aware of the depth of abuse going on. Nonetheless, the bit I’ve seen in these episodes of the drama is enough for me to know that from poverty (for third world countries) or passion for one’s dreams, there’s always a way for the selfish and greedy to take advantage of others. And that’s dark indeed.

Is it just me or did the punishments for the bad guys for the idol group story got really brutal? It might be that I just realized it now, but deliberately crashing a person’s car? Falling stage lights? Going up the roof top without an “intention” to corner the villain and mentally push her to her end?It would have been more satisfying to see them getting jailed for the awful things they’ve done.Also, I actually waited for the Music Bank hosts to mention that Elements have signed with a new agency. I hope their song Fly With Me gets to be part of the OST.

It seems Yeon Wol’s comeback will be happening next week! I can’t wait for the avenger couple to take action and get rid of the Left State Councilor!

Thinking of watching this, but I have a feeling a well-catechized Catholic would hold back doing two things to be polite while watching: eye roll and chuckle. Would I be right?

To be honest, I stayed for the side couples, but the ending isn’t so bad.

There was a part that reminded me of a scene from Reply 1994 that annoyed me. (Bias couple aside, that is.) In both dramas, the ML works in the medical field but for some reason they forgo the health of the person they’re kissing. I mean, MLs from both have fever running high and they still kissed the girl they like without even considering that possibility that the FL would get sick after the kiss 😅

America’s Sweethearts.

I actually had the impression that the final scene is inspired by a popular romcom movie, but the title that crossed my mind was America’s Sweethearts.

To those who enjoyed this pairing, the main couple actors have worked together in "Wonderful Nightmare" (https://kisskh.at/11618-wonderful-nightmare).

I’m loving the OG romcom vibes this drama gives. Seriously, I feel like I’m watching a 2015 drama but in 4K.

You did well in Love, Take Two. Hope to see you as lead more often in the future.

I’m really into romance dramas with middle-aged couple leads. If I enjoyed Love, Take Two, Crash Course in Romance or Second Love from the Start, will I enjoy this too?

It’s always the dramas where Kim Mi Kyung ahjumma star in that turn out to be gems.

That bit part where Jisu pointed out that she is the complete opposite of Seungli’s ideal type… I think that’s the same thing with Jeongmok liking Do first, but later falling for Jiyeon. Ideal types are from the head but we do fall in love with the heart first and then make choices with the head.

Jiyeon and JM story is something I would love to see in a movie.

I think the 10 episodes of this show is not enough for a significant character growth for Jaeyoon. I keep getting secondhand embarrassment watching him, since I somehow understand his awkwardness, his overthinking after expressing himself to someone, and the rest. I feel bad that he wasn't able to spend time with YM early on; he would have some chance with her if he did.

I look at SH and I see a big kid.

I like how JS didn't let her popularity get into her head. I'm not rooting her for anyone in particular. I just hope she ends up with someone she can rely on.

MH is such a best friend material. It's nice that she was able to develop friendships in the show. I do hope she ends up having a happy and long-lasting relationship even if it's not from this show.

I would have loved to see more of Seungchan and Miji but they don't have enough screen time.

That last line from JM in Episode 8 is not exactly surprising for me, knowing his line of thinking about pursuing a relationship. Out of all the guys in the show, it's JM's personality that I like the most. The only unlikeable thing he did was to leave YD in that gray area after making her feel like a princess for most of the episodes. I just hope he is able to part ways with YD in a good note.
