Definitely slow burn but magnificently done. The dysfunctional characters, the suffocating family atmosphere, the stifling heat of the summer, the grueling farm work under the scorching sun, the long train and bus journeys to and from Sanpo, the lush summer nature setting callously indifferent to human suffering, the unfulfilled hope that Seoul represents, the painful relationships between the characters, all make this an exceptional study in the human condition. The very many eating scenes in the Sanpo and Seoul settings where the characters are shown to mechanically chew their food with blank faces on are masterpieces of the inability or unwillingness of the characters to communicate with each other and their environment. Looking forward to how all this is going to unravel.

She drove me nuts too! Especially the hair...

So have I and I still think it is not a great choice but only time will tell :-)

Unfortunately for Doh Kyungsoo, a rare idol that can truly act, this casting combo is not a good one. Lee Se Hee is far from being an accomplished actress. Her last series 'Young Lady and a Gentleman" is proof of that. Good visuals and a collection of forced facial expressions do not an actress make. Hope she declines the offer.
