He was the star of Death's Game. Episode 2 was the best.
I find that with any KDrama, you have actors who you watch because they're goodlooking/famous, and actors who you watch because they're actually good.
Of the former, I don't have to give you a list since its kind of obvious (Cha Eun Woo I'm looking at you). As for the latter, those actors have a wide range. Lee Jae Wook is one of them, he's been dancing around the spectrum like he owns it. Kim Seon Ho is another. After Death's Game 2, I am placing Jang Seung Jo in that category as well. Gaaad dayum Death's Game 2 Truck Trailer scene was dope AF
I swear if the secret to blackouts is something stupid like split personalities then imma flip my sh*t. I have a strong suspicion that the killer is actually the shaman guy but he has a split personality. The general mcarthur possession feels like a chekov’s gun.
They should have put that commercial effort into Kopiko instead haha
Actor 2: What are you eating? Actor 1 brings out Kopiko: This, try it out! Actor 2 takes one and sucks on it: Woah! Tastes really good! Camera sticks on Kopiko packet for a good 10 seconds... Actor 2: So anyways, let us continue with this crime scene investigation! Actor 1: Yea! The serial killer sure does like to make the crime scene bloody. Its like a Jackson Pollock painting here!
I'm like 95% sure Jo Deuk Chan killed Eom Ji (Do Ha's first girlfriend) because she was stopping Do Ha from fully committing to his dreams in the music industry. He gives me serial killer vibes with the way he looked at Sol Hee when he said "Congratulations".
I can understand what some of the comments are saying about stereotyping and what not, but I gotta say the arab prince actor is really witty and his chemistry with Lee Jun Ho is off the charts. Even the dialogues in English feel like banter between bros with a love-hate relationship. Another foreign actor i gotta give shout outs to is Aziz from Gaus electronics.
Man Koreans overuse "controversy" so much that it has officially lost all meaning. I mean is this even something you have to apologise for? PewDiePie literally does this with his videos and the fans love it (they add small easter eggs in the translations and stuff too). And all those fringe languages that don't get any love get a chance to come into the spotlight thanks to fan-volunteer efforts.
This is why I always feel that these actors and actresses are fake all the time, especially in interviews and stuff. They just can't say what they want to say because the netizens will all go up in arms about something or the other.
The real OP main character of this drama is Jin Do Jun's elder brother. That man is a Prophet. He's out there predicting the future without having travelled back in time!
But God is fair. He has nerfed him by shifting his focus to entertainment industry instead of business and economics.
They put an Arduino Microcontroller inside that Okay Power! (I recognised it by the sticker on the PCB's backside when it was punched into pieces) Never thought I'd see that in a KDrama, but nice easter egg.
I just can't get enough of the intro. The first time I saw it, I legitimately thought that I accidentally played an anime but then the song was Korean and then I was like: "Is this going to be a Korean anime?" I usually skip intros to kdramas. This is the only one I watch to its entirety. Damn it just isn't long enough! I NEED an extended intro!
Damn! Manager Yoo Sung is a stone-cold sociopath when it comes to protecting his actors. That move of getting the rich actor boy drunk had me shooketh!
I hope that the success of AML will convince Korea to dabble in the Time Regression or Reincarnation genre. There are a bunch of Manhwas and stories out there with amazing plots with this theme (Back from the Grave, Real Man, Medical Return) that I would love to see on screen.
People learning from their mistakes and becoming better (with some revenge on the side) that’s my cup of tea :)

Jk Jk. This actor is the same one from squid games

Seriously though, why didn't we have a 2nd season of Hot Stove League?!
Did not see that coming! Had me in stitches LMAO
The story is hella Soap Opera-ish. So you better be ready for a lot of satirical cliches and sappy romance + misunderstanding scenes.
In the hoarsest of Jon Snow's voice: "My Queen!"
I didn't know what to expect from a series called Our Blues. Its blue all right...

BUT. I am not disagreeing with your earlier point about caricatures.
