At least she talked more than her partner, who only knew the sentence "I don't like him/her" ...and when he didn't get what he wanted he became aggressive (such guys were the torturers back in the day).

It was all too obvious after watching the trailer. Smoking and gore was the only content shown, plus two actors who can't do melodrama without action.

Heesoos father was the best, bong seoks father overrated and the third dad was a filler character (as they wanted to create some "love triangle" atmosphere and jeaulousy between the students). The filler character was the weakest part of the plot and ep 14 the weakest episode, but they made up for it with the last 5 episodes and the great remaining cast and its string of messages. One overlooked thing I have to mention: Heesoos father was responsible for everything that happened to him and his family as he had the choice in his younger days, in contrast to many of the NKs. He chose a gangster life and thus was heading towards the open arms of the intelligence service (the only difference was the suit). I know it's fiction, but in real life I wouldn't feel sorry for such a guy.

The male lead in Dr. Romantic ends up with no one (or, let's say, he ends up with the entire hospital staff). He's a middle-aged surgeon and has no time for childish romances. According to mdl tags (almost) every Kdrama is a romance. The romance in Dr. Romantic was similar to that in Moving. The title "Romantic" might be irritating but more appealing than "Dr. Nonconformist", "Dr. Individualist" or "Dr. Maverick", though I like the last one.

Oh boy, Disney+ has chosen NJH, one of the worst SK actors. He prevented all shows from being perfect.

It's a medical drama, romance is not the main genre here, the male lead had no time for romance. This show could have been perfect if it wasn't for the awful performance of the actor who played the younger male lead. The cast is not always as perfect as in Moving. A perfect cast is half the bottle and can even save a second season, but that's barely the case.

One of the most unexpected and great scenes was when Hui soo comforted the weeping NK bear.

Dr. Romantic 2 was still great

Is the woman that entered the NIS office of the old fart in the final episode the bullied girl or her mother? It's too big of a career step in such a short amount of time to become the superior of that old fart. Lol

It's like a classic novel! People who find the early episodes boring have never read classic books and thus don't understand what real storytelling is.

It took Disney+ 1 1/2 years to make the first Kdrama available in my country (Germany). They entered the Kdrama market in November 2021, after Squid Game became a hit and Netflix share reached an all-time high. In April 2023 they added the first Kdrama on Disney+ Germany. It is too confusing. To make it short: Just do it like Netflix (Kdrama originals available in 100+ countries and dubbed into a handful of languages). The mainstream audience is spoiled and lazy, they just want an easily accessible site like Netflix.

Felt 90% of the shows I watch (and finish) are Korean shows bc the west is mostly producing crap or bang average stuff. I watched almost 400 Kdramas, of which 150 I can watch over and over again. I gave some western shows a chance, for example, a few weeks ago I watched the German Netlix hit "Liebes Kind" and damn was it wasted time watching such cheap show.

Regarding promoting Moving to a worldwide smash hit: there's light at the end of the tunnel. I hope Disney gets organized until the release of season 2, making Kdramas available on the OFFICIAL Disney+ streaming site in at least 90+ countries (particularly in Latin America, the second biggest market for Kdramas according to official numbers of Netflix), and dubbed into at least English and Spanish. The mainstream audience in the "West" doesn't give a fuck about VPN server or Hulu, they just want all stuff available on Disney's main site. Disney is so lazy, all they care about is their woke agenda. If they can manage to organize, people in the world will also watch season 1 if season 2 comes out. If this show would have been a Netflix show, actors like the one playing Frank would become superstars. The actors/actresses in Moving easily outperform those in Squid Game.

Since the originator is writing the script himself it will most likely not become such a 0,5/10 garbage like The Uncanny Counter 2 (with the worst performances one can imagine; particularly of the ml, one of the worst actors). Moving plays in another league.

You can hardly call Kwak Sun-young's role a "guest role" (as mdl does). That was a support role, she got more screen time than Frank, and much much more than Park Hee-soon.

Don't forget that the mainstream audience (who actually contributes to mega hits) doesn't give a fuck about VPN servers or Hulu etc.

It would have been much bigger if it was on the much more organized Netflix. But since people in several countries have to use alternative channels or a VPN server to watch this show, it's more a minor hit rather than a big one. That's what we call "underrated". If it was such a big hit, the mass media in Germany (my country) would write about the show (like they did when Squid Game became a hit), but they don't. Disney is definitely at fault here.

He should make Kdramas available in all countries first. What use has a second season if 50% of the world's population can't watch it???? It's disrespecting towards the Moving filmcrew. Every artist dreams of being known and seen everywhere. Disney should get organized first. What's the problem? They have more than enough money, even more than Netflix

In case people get it wrong: I'm a capitalist, but I don't support evil acts.

The real monsters in real life always sit behind their desks. Their minions are aiding, doing the dirty jobs, but those behind the desk are the real terrorists and murderers, we do not without reason call people like Dulles, Kissinger, Reagan, Bush, Clinton or Obama 'mass murderers' who caused the death of 20+ million people all over the world since 1945. They do it for people who also sit behind their desks, in corporations and at the Wall Street, for example.
