I like me a rich women….IU you beauty. This is superb, it’s been so long since I haven’t fast forward any scene… love this one. she is rich, carefree, kind, strong, hurt and all of that, I hope no big misfortunes falls on her specially life threatening…
I’m always on the girl’s side, no matter what. I don’t care how caring he is, I just can’t stand that kind of rude, obnoxious behavior being justified as love. There is no form of love without softness.
That being said, IU’s star power is truly magical. Her presence, even beside a tall, princely figure like BWK, is just as captivating, if not more.
Since her debut as an actress, she has consistently outperformed her co-stars in every series, from dream high to naui ajeossi to this. She holds her ground in every scene she’s in.
I just wish this series had more defiance, more rebellion against the Crown and so called wanna be Queen mother. Respect has existed in every era, but traditions and culture must evolve with time. Otherwise, they become rigid and lose their meaning.
p.s. they haven't showed yet why he is being hated by the family, right? like the King being this cruel to his second son and why he face such hostility from the family.
and the appearance of my buddy white truck of doom. Like no other car has capability of collision, it has to be white truck, is it owned by Samsung?
I applaud all the casting directors for choosing such talented and good looking JP men for these BLs. I can't imagine, who looks more beautiful and handsome, as all of them are effing insane, and JBLs has their charm in rawness and very blunt emotional confrontations, the two elements that are very common across the JP entertainment industry...
Finally I can watch them now, I couldn't bear the injustice in My Stand-In, as i just couldn't forgive ming. So dropped that series after 4 episodes, but this one I can watch.
they won’t spent entire series in past right? since the killer in present told the ML he is not a culprit and I think he is telling the truth….and my guess is it is the ML friend the one who runs the bookstore … not the sister BF but sister brother in law ….
what’s up with his face… so he is from beauty company so you paint his face with entire bucket of foundation and makeup??? that is very cheap and cringe to be honest.
What is the punisment for being a drug dealer? Those who tested positive for drug will be put in jail for a few…
back in day and in this specific case and this type of drug is not considered a morphinan type of drug so the punishment for taking it fine plus 20 days detention, a must rehab and some sort of fine up-to 5000RMB. Thats law, but if the cases are not serious, detention or fine is given mostly.
But the drug trafficking of any kind traditional or non traditional, that harms general public is extremely serious in PRC. If they are morphinan opioid tyope drug such as opium, herion exceeding 50kg to 1000kg results in life imprisonment to death sentence mostly.
That is why CH and SG are in grave danger. Even though the drug they sold is not morphinan, it is still dangerous enough to cause addiction, harm to the public, disrupt social order, and even lead to casualties. Under Chinese law, as you may know, the consequences of an act carry significant weight in sentencing. The crime itself is one thing, but the damage it causes is another. When an offense results in widespread harm or serious consequences, that impact is taken into account as an aggravating factor, often leading to much harsher punishment.
So I have already decided to not get hurt when they will get caught.
After watching this series, it reminds me of all the sayings elders used to tell us, that one word of truth is enough to settle everything. But the moment you tell a lie, you trap yourself in a web you have to keep weaving. One lie demands another, then another, until you’re no longer in control of it; it controls you. And by the time the truth finally surfaces, it doesn’t just expose the lie, it exposes the person who chose it.
Watching this from Episode 6 onward, every scene feels nerve-wracking, as if any moment could be the endgame for them. You keep wondering how much longer they can keep the lie alive. Like a web tightening around them, CH and SG keep trying to escape by fixing one problem, only for it to lead directly into another. Each solution only sets up the next threat, pulling them deeper into the very trap they are trying to outrun.
This is nothing new and truth is already out (as we now know who the women was and who killed her) I wonder what next 13 episodes holds.
I don’t know why but in every LJH series (whether he plays villain or positive role) I’ve seen him in, he comes across as aggressive. Maybe it’s just his facial expression, but he always looks like he’s on the verge of an outburst.
And yes, a prosecutor with a bullying background… not exactly new. Still, if it’s executed well, it works.
I’m hoping for a tight, gripping story rather than filler or unnecessary noise.
I also wish more shows would go as far as taking real revenge on bullies, the way The King of Pigs did.
1988 was a transitional period in South Korea’s history, moving from authoritarian rule toward democratic representation on the global stage. So traces of police brutality, shaped during Park’s dictatorship and earlier regimes in the name of catching so-called “communists,” could still be seen into the 1990s.
The drama reminds me of beyond evil, tunnel, signal, through the darkness, life on mars, less than evil, train, come and hug me, and nobody knows, among others.
Giving it a solid 8. It’s a classic kind of story that never really gets old.
