Just an average show, without any ambition. The show had multiple motives, but they were all separated from each other, thats why it didn't hit the mark.
When I watched WFKBJ, I had no idea she had played so many bitch roles. And funny things is, it suits her. Her face is like, she stole all the boys from her female friends.
Tbh Han yoon chul doesn’t deserve to get punished it mostly his ex wife
He does. He is as pathetic as the rest of them. Leaving his love for a money and cheating her GF.
Also his ex-GF (Yoon Hee) is turning into a bitch now. I hope she comes to her senses, she already did what her daughter acused her in first place, in next episode I think she comes clean with SSR.
No character in this series is likeable including SSR.
No version of this series, can beat original Wu Bon Song. He by far and I quote is the best SML ever. Never tried stealing her, never created fuss, never rolled his eyes, never did any evil planning or plotting, never tried to separate or take advantage of FL during ML absence.
He watched her, protected her, loved her, he called her "her boss", became famous and gave all credit to her, became rich but never pestered her, bought a ring to propose finally knowing she would never accept he forget the pain over some bottle of alcohol and the next day he was the same WBS and happily let her go.
Tell me where will you find that kind of SML?
It was the biggest injustice in drama land. But what to do, you love who you love.
Your Profile Picture? Is he Haruma? Sorry if it's not. It's kinda blur idk. I just miss him.
My first asian film was Oldboy in 2009 and first asian drama was Boku no Ita Jikan in 2014. I fell in love with him, though I couldn't finish it, as it was way beyond sad. Ironically I decided to finish it this year, and same month he left us to be a sky. I would never be able to finish it now. May he feel at ease now, where he is, smiling with his eyes closed.
Shin Hye Sun is such a talented actress, but she still hasn't received her due claim to fame. I just wish, she get her mark this time.
And what can I say KJH, he is 30, well age doesn't matter, but his acting skills are on whole other level. I am not saying this, just because he actually got sick while filming Time, and had to exit the show because of illness brought on him by his method acting, but his passion for roles are unlike other. Be it comedy, or serious, he truly is one of finest of his generation.
In Time, I couldn't bare to watch leads miserable roles even though he went beyond his acting capabilities, but in Waikiki in season 1, I watched him dearly, at-least for me, his performance was out of the world. His expressions, dialogue delivery, stupidities, foolishly filled love face was so spot on, that it looked real, and that when you enjoy a show, and I did, and I still do.
I think that this series was okay, but not more than that. Whatever we think about it I believe we should be honest…
I completely understand what you are saying.
And I never said that, don't give your opinion, specially the honest one. For me... as well, series lacked in many ways, but I overlooked it, why? Because my expectation from K-BL industry are zero, as I don't want myself ending-up it comparing with Thai or Pinoy or Taiwanese BL, because they are far away from such stories, and direction, yet.
This year 3 popular K-BL came out and 4th is coming on 31st. And see, even though they are 45min per season, they are well made efforts, like really well. Criticise all you want, but understand, that baby has just come out, and it needs time to grow old to do well. So be patient, good stories will come out. First 2 years of Thai BL was so immature, like straight guy turning gay, forced relationship and same good old school uniform stories, but eventually they came out of it and still in process of making good BL/Gay theme stories, even though they don't have censorship.
But for S Korea, all kind of restrictions exist. Which surely they will overcome with time. Even though stories, direction or production do not match of people standard, I still find these 8-12ish episodic stories quite mature and well acted.
And yes you said it right. More than BL is needed. There are artist and K-pop idols, succumbing to their agencies pressure and living a lie, but eventually they will see to it. I am not projecting or forcing my assumptions to any artist of K-Industry and I have huge respect for what they do as living in prison of your choice is death by complacency.
If people are nitpicking on BL that is from Korea, then it is blatant discouragement for production companies and producers, who are taking baby steps into this genre. As all of us know, Korean industry and culture is not fond of this kind of stories let alone gay center plot or full length BL drama. Which they are far from that to achieve.
99film, Strongberry and some small companies are making most of Korean BL and they are dedicated to LGBTQ, so their contents are much more matured than any other production. But other companies are trying to expand into that horizon and many hurdles are in their ways, such as proper funding, finding actors who can play gay characters without any hesitation, or other cast or crew without any prejudice.
"Two Korean actors", who are well established leading actors now, did BL a decade ago, and they have never spoken of it or once tried to venture into again, why...? because their agencies won't let them. Their money and ratings matters the most.
You tell me, why no actor, no artist has come out in Korean industry, do you believe that they are all straight? (I apologize for such assumption but that is truth) There are so many artists suffocating at the hands of their agencies. It is wrong to assume, but I am damn sure poor Cha In-ha suffered on the hands of people around him, and so does many others.
So it is my humble request, that while giving your reviews, specially for contents that aren't marginalised or fully acknowledged yet but it is someone efforts to drift the direction in doing just that, please appreciate.
When the future Seo Jin, decided to kill himself in order to get the confession out of it. How he was in contact with AR the whole time, as they can only contact for 1 minute. And the the whole conversation between Chairman and him was more than that. It is the only confusion I have.
Who doesn't. I would watch 100 plus episode of drama such as One Spring Night and Something In The Rain, these are two magical series in term of relationships, story, OST and acting.
