If they would have broken the Flashbacks and inserted in between the it would have became awkward/weird. Cause ML now and in Past were nothing alike (the reason we know now why)...so it would confusing to show past & present in parallel , People would have made an arguments like . . . " why is ML behaving differently like that?" , "does ML have dual personality disorder?", "Does he had a twin brother?" etc etc.(because of all the back n forth)

The only reason people hating on backstory thing is not because it was 2 ep long, but because reduction of episodes to 12. If drama was about 16 or 20 eps long we would have no complain about 2 HOUR FlashBack, but now we do. Yeah the reduction was unnecessary :(

umm....kay my bad, enjoy man enjoy.

Guess every new drama is BIG MOUTH now xD.

Cheesy romance ones probably 🧐

After watching various other English series or dramas......opening such dramas and seeing such overly expressive acting does make them look CRINGY . if it was an anime then i would have no complain because now those crazy facial expressions are acceptable. But its totally CRINGE seeing human making those faces.

Cause its soo good i guess.😅 The drama is going so good....but now the production team has decided to reduce the length of drama to 12 eps. So everybody is annoyed about that i guess.
(Some part of viewers are there who are angry for stupid reasons........better ignore them)

I hope they do make s2

We were right about Lee dong gil part , that's why i wasn't surprised when they revealed the face.

And ML probably in it from the start.....OR he found out that his brother is doing this all sometimes later, was shocked (& started supporting him??) and confessed to protect his brother as he has already suffered too much.
(umm....i i think he would have confessed either way i.e if he knew about it from the start or Found out about the kilings later.)

hehe xD

its seems too overlong. because people are not used to have 2 our episode of just Flashback, in every other dramas backstory are revealed little by little ( and since drama only have 12 episodes now, So everyone is frustrated that not too much of an episodes remained to watch ) . For me i have no complains.

from VERY far it may seem like that, but when you zoom into it then it will no longer look 'TYPICAL'. Try this out.....the visuals, the ost's and acting are top notch.

Exactly , the moment romance enters the plot....everything starts to fall apart, now romance is leading the storyline , now the plot will rotate around romance....original plot driving can now go to hell. LOVE is the way, now lead will do anything to protect his love...bla bla all this bullshxts. xD

well said , Such dramas are better without romance bullshxt.

But still i would say it partially episodic (if its even a word xD) , you can't just start the episode in the middle (like 3 or 5 or whatever) and understand the entire gist, unlike foreign shows. Cause cases are mostly totally unrelated there.......And here the cases here are separate but all are connected to Bad guys who died in this drama & jangan law firm. But i get what you trying to say..

Dramas is running at good pace.
But why there is no interaction between Jin jung and secondary characters( Eun ji & Joong do) at all? especially Eun ji , its been 5ep and they didn't even have a single word dialogue exchange ?? \0___0/

'My name' alternate version ?? 👀

yup, there development looks more scripted than natural, i think writer goes like this
Ep 1-4........character will act like this
Ep 5 ...........character arc starts and he will change in a certain way cause of ML or FL 'talk no jutsu' hammered some sense into him
Ep 6-10........character have no use now so it can go back to do whatever the hell they were doing OR can follow around Ml/FL.

( The feeling that that it is adapted from the manga or something is SO OBVIOUS, like after certain chapter other characters comes and then fade away........its starting to feel like any other Live Action dramas as if they are acting straight out of manga, if mc is manga have some catchphrase or acting cringe.....then grown up actor will keep saying catch phase and will act cringe , i mean Come on you don't have to adapt everything ...he is no longer a comic character but a human in jDRAMAs who is no longer relatable due to weird things he doing now .)

At least kdramas does a better job using a side characters, even they are adapted from Webtoon but the way they handle characters appearances and screen time it doesn't gives a feel that they acting straight out of Manhwa panels .
Okay i think this much of a RANT is enough for today.xD

'Who is the actual killer' is only thing that's running this dramas. Apart from this everything can be described as 'TYPICAL'

I get the episodic part, but these are only some of 50-60 dramas which may have gave episodic feel. But unlike American or British dramas kdramas doen't feel that much episodic cause they focus on the characters life story with the same intensity ( even if the screen is comparably less.)
And most of them are like what you described in you 3rd para.

That's why i prefer staying away from romance dramas especially in jdramas .

And one thing did you notice like how Side characters(not SL's or SFL's) is most of thej dramas have no important at all after there storyline/arc is over....they either fade away in the background or sort of became NPC ;
like character which turned a new leaf in recent episodes, who used to be an asshxle.....will go back to be an jerk to other(but this time to the other side characters only). Pick any school life dramas or slice of life dramas...you will know what i am talking about.
