It was so pointless. Like one final crumb for Jidal shippers.

The only thing I remember from TKEM is Woo Do Hwan. And the only thing i'll remember from Start Up years later is Kim Seon Ho.

While the writers, A-listers in TKEM and Start Up, would rather forget that they starred in their respective dramas.

you guys are brave to enter another SLS type situation so soon after Start Up.

They totally used HJP's character purely for ratings. But in the end, the viewership ratings in Korea still dropped. I think the finale was lower than average viewership as well.

i've heard nothing but great things about Eve. But i'm not fond of seeing blood and killing on the shows I watch. Same reason i'll never watch Dexter also.

Fleabag isn't on netflix though.

I've finished a few. So far i've finished the following, rated according to which I liked the most.

1. Cobra Kai
2. Bridgerton
3, The Good Place
4. Emily in Paris

I'm currently watching.

1. Archer
2. The Flash
3. Supergirl

Supergirl and Flash are kind of bad shows, the writing just plain sucks. But since they are in english, I can do work while watching them.

Archer, is surprisingly a good show, even though it's a cartoon. I'm on season 3, and it's been quite fun.

It was hard to like NDS because of his victim mentality.

I'm taking a break from Kdrama and watching western shows now.

When Run on and Mr. Queen are done, i'll just binge them both.

No more NJH for me for a while, unless he is supporting role or SL.

no more love triangles for me lol :))

ahh ok ok

ah so domestically, and internationally disliked. Must be some sort of accomplishment.

who is joy?

It depends. If you are like me, and are not winning lotteries every week, and don't have a super duper lucky life. Then we may not feel NDS like is relatable.

If you are the select few, who has had a silver spoon all your life, or who are just crazy lucky every day. Then you may find NDS portrayal quite inspirational.

Hmm, in my experience, this is the first time I've seen a SL have a more interesting/complex character arc than the ML. Most of the time the backstory of the SL is contained to a blurb, or a short flashback, not a whole episode, and a Pilot one at that.

Yeah, seeing you detail everything, made me realize how poorly the writer treated HJP.

Probably, but the image of sweaty, stinky NDS feet made me laugh :))))

Majority felt the same way, because in 2020, men who are possessive, easily jealous, and give the women no independence on their own, are no longer seen as romantic, but rather toxic.

Park Shin Hye is lauded for her beauty? This is surprising to me. I think she's just average Kdrama beauty. And I don't think her acting is that great from what I hear.

From what I see, Kpop Idols have more hype than regular actresses. When an Idol plans to jump into his/her first Kdrama, there is so much hype for it. Plus based on Instagram followers, even your most average Kpop member will have more followers on social media than your average kdrama star. And internationally, Kpop is more popular than Kdramas.

Plus it's also the mob effect. When one person says, Suzy is the most beautiful person in Korea, everyone just kind of parrots and agrees. Prior to Suzy, people were saying Song Hye Kyo was the prettiest. It's that mob mentality. Especially considering that beauty is one of those subjective things.

I agree, it's the kpop thing.

Well IU is 5'4
and Suzy is 5'6

Those two inches, make a big difference in beauty you'll be surprised. IU feels short, and Suzy feels tall enough.

Also, IU kind of has a resting b*tch face, while Suzy has the more innocent look. By no means is Suzy the girl next door look, because she isn't. Koreans like angelic looking actresses, that's why Yoona is so popular as well in the beauty department.

Personally for me, although her face is pretty enough, she could benefit from 2 more inches added to her heart to make her appear leaner. Like I think Lisa from Blackpink has an amazing body! SMA also has a great body. Suzy's body is meh for me.

Well, she's acting alongside a competent ML, so maybe she will get carried. Or maybe Jisoo will be like exo DO, and be amazing. Who knows.

But, after watching her on that Netflix documentary on Blackpink, i'm not hopeful, she seems a bit stiff on it. But then again, Jisoo is the most popular of the four in Blackpink, so I'm sure her drama will get tons of views, just for that fact alone.

I doubt her drama will be one of the best of 2021, considering how many established actors/actresses are making their drama comeback in 2021.

Suzy has the looks for sure. She also has the visuals to back up the looks. Even I will admit she's quite beautiful, but I actually find Kang Hanna more beautiful though, IMO.

But in reality, a lot of the reason she is considered the most beautiful women or whatever stems from the fact that she started in Kpop. I noticed that Idols who turned actresses tend to have more fans, and people calling them goddesses all the time. Stars like IU and Yoona also suffer from this. Are IU and Yoona beautiful? Yes they are. But are they the most beautiful in Korea? Probably not. But from their fans POV, they are the most beautiful.

But the thing is, because they can dance, they sometimes wear skimpy outfits, and they sing well, their beauty gets magnified into idol/goddess worship. Imagine an unattractive woman singing like an angel, she will suddenly start to look better. A good example of this is the girl in the group AKMU Lee Su-hyun. She is not attractive, but her sweet, melodic voice, makes her more attractive and charming.

So when you have a girl, who is already naturally attractive, has a Kpop, Solo singing career, and has acted in dramas/movies for a while. You will get a lot of people lauding her beauty.

Bottom line, as is, Suzy is not all that, but when you factor in her singing background, sweet disposition, and perchance for playing sweet romantic roles, I'm not surprised people feel she is the one of the most beautiful in Korea.
