I wish this was not tagged as spoiler as recent watchers were shocked that this was based from real historical figures 😂

Six Flying Dragons
River Where the Moon Rises
Chicago Typewriter
Mr. Sunshine
The Crowned Clown
Ruler: King of the Mask
Jang Ok Jung: Living by Love

I thought so too! The Hanseong night scenes were definitely from Mr. Sunshine.

The editors of the poster did Sohyun dirty with that left side of the hair.

I really love this line up! Next month, we're also having My Lovely Liar of Kim So Hyun and Hwang Min Hyun. 🎉

Yes! Highly recommended. You just have to get used to the documentary setup and not think about it much.

South Korea has very strict gun regulations, only the police and those with security -related business are given permits to carry guns. That's why if you've checked other kdramas, there's usually no guns in sight to keep it realistic.

You're most welcome. Apologies for not getting back to you sooner.

The first thing that comes to mind is Encounter of Park Bo Gum and Song Hye Kyo (the younger actress in WMLB is also starring here).
Other notable one would be the classic Endless Love- Autumn in my Heart.
And not sure why but this show also reminds me of Tomorrow with You of Shin Min Ah, maybe because of the subdued tone.

Wok of Love is different from Rain or Shine (also known as "Just Between Lovers".
I'm pretty sure both dramas are in Netflix but maybe it's not available in your region.

Me too, bestie.

surely, they want him back too. They're off to Jeju Island now to shoot the 100th episode tomorrow- 29th. I just hope he'd be there to surprise his members and celebrate that special event with him, as he should.
but then again, considering the overall atmosphere and perhaps, Seonho's mental well-being, he truly needs to rest a bit more. It was a hellish week (MONTHS) for him because of that ex girlfriend.

I personally saw an article from a self-acclaimed "reputable" news agency in the Philippines stating that he has admitted to the abortion claims and the whole controversy in general. I was soooo furious.
If someone as big as that company could twist his words shamelessly, then what more those websites who feed on clickbaits?

he basically apologized for the chaos that he indirectly caused because of that girl's post. however, he didn't apologize for any of his actions a.k.a. he knows he's not in the wrong, but he just wants to still say sorry as a lot were affected by the news.

It's quite funny how these antis keep claiming that he has admitted to "everything" when all he did was issue an apology. He kept his silence. Makes me wonder which unreliable news sites have they been visiting.

Indeed. What struck me the most was that despite not being the ones in focus, the people in the background were like real-life people who have other concerns as well and aren't just standing and listening to the person with lines. Each scene feels and appears so dynamic.

A particular scene in mind was when Hyejin and Pyo Miseon ran into the company of PD Ji and staff with Hong Banjang at Hwajeong's restaurant. While Hyejin and PD Ji were talking, Seonho was busy mouthing his words to Miseon in the background. He looked so natural when doing that.

It was only then that I realized that Seonho truly doesn't follow the robotic-like and movement-numbered acting method of tv actors because he's not used to being contained in a frame. He wants to move around and enunciate his facial expressions.
What a treat to see a lot of those in the show .

The writer has an incredible skill of weaving all of those stories into one. The side characters were written very well and each one takes center stage. The director also managed to keep the chill and light atmosphere of the setting. The cast is primarily composed of theatre actors and amazing child actors so you're in for a treat. The OSTs were well-placed, helping the actors convey the emotions better. Overall, it's a very heartwarming drama with beautiful lessons that could help us in our daily lives.

This is what happens when you cast seasoned theatre actors and incredible child actors! Everyone has been saying that it's such a breeze to work on set and each taping day finishes on time. Who would have thought that despite the happy working environment, we would be seeing all those emotions especially towards the finale?

So please, casting Directors. Give theatre actors more chances to be on TV. It's truly a magical experience from a viewer's perspective.

They used several North Korean defectors though who were from several parts of the North. So this is as accurate as it can be. One of the writers is also a North Korean defector from Pyeongyang. He tried so hard to imitate the North.

oh noes. I just got reminded by this post thanks to you. I didn't watch it yet because I got so smitten with Hometown Cha-cha-cha, I don't have the time to focus on other things.
