the "romance" was forced, and inappropriate? so moon was a high school student and ha na was a grown woman. even now, so moon would have been a busy college student

ha na was 2-3 years older than so moon. and so moon acted like a kid 99% of the time. the different maturity levels would have left the younger, less experienced school boy open to abuse

season 2 so moon didn't care that ha na was with someone else. the "romance" ran its course

"... she leaves the US for Korea to enroll in a men’s physical education high school"

women invading men's spaces (or men invading women's spaces) is horrifying. women like this should be ashamed of themselves

"... she has to dress up as a boy in order to join a male idol group"

women invading men's spaces (or men invading women's spaces) is horrifying. women like this should be ashamed of themselves. they steal men's jobs, undermine the group's sense of authenticity and make it harder for talented men to find their place in the music industry. they are a drain on the agency's resources. it's a boy group! it's where men build and maintain healthy relationships with each other. no women allowed

hip-hop is about storytelling. the success of an artist depends on their willingness to shatter stereotypes and create a new style of self-expression. "let's pretend to be men" doesn't shatter stereotypes. it enforces them. we want to say, "women can do what men do." we don't want to say, "women who do what men do are men/less of a woman"

it does have great potential. the storyline grew more mature and complex. for example, so moon's existence doesn't revolve around ha na (their moments in season 1 went overboard). he put himself first, seized his claws on whatever and worked hard to become a superpowered leader of the team. the other counters found a renewed hope in him

despite the colorful cavalcade of spirits that plot against the counters, there are several heartbreaking and compassionate moments between them and jeok bong, the new addition to the uncanny family. the counters deal with much more human problems, like securing their home, losing their firefighter friend, feeling as though they don't belong or healing their broken friendships

please watch it. as a bonus, you'd get:

1) badass so moon
2) badass gelly
3) badass pil kwang
4) funny, adorable jeok bong
5) adorable younger brother/older sister moments between so moon and ha na
6) intense moments between so moon and pil kwang
7) intense moments between ha na and gelly

what if someone is okay with gore and not "sex?" what's it to you? you ask people why they like pineapple or pizza, and not pineapple pizza? preferences don't work that way

"sex" is dirtier and more violent than dismemberment. it's the act of men defiling women or women defiling men. it "murders" a clean mind and body. no blood is shed, and the act is unforgiven

that's great! how come people said season 2 isn't doing well? it's achieved remarkable success by ranking 6th on netflix's global top 10 non-english drama list! it's doing very well!

i scrolled down and there were 2-3 commenters complaining about the "adult romance" and 10+ more complaining about the 2-3 comments. these people thrive on drama smh

"sexual content, nudity"

translation: unrecyclable waste that society passes off as art

so long as handmaidens insist that actresses choose to rent out their bodies for their audiences' one-sided pleasure, the racism, colonialism, and misogyny forming the rotten foundation of "sex positivity" are ignored

why racism? women aren't objectified equally in the industry that privileges lighter-skinned women. why misogyny? "sex" is political. it's something that, although a private activity, the "hypersexual" regime manipulates into a public currency. women's reliance on "nudity and sexual content" as a means of generating income and fame places them in a subordinate position compared to their male counterparts who are granted a dominant position in the exchange

call me a prude. i'm disinclined to watch "nudity and sexual content"

i'm just happy that the ha na and so moon "ship" sank

it was a one-sided "attraction"

ha na saw so moon as a little brother. she told so moon not to introduce her as his "girlfriend" and he went against her wishes. it was weird and cringe. there was and should be nothing between them. your fee fees are hurt that your weird "ship" sank?

they aren't, thankfully

ha na is 2-3 years older. so moon calls her noona, an honorific that refers to older women/sisters

ha na and so moon or ha na and do hwi? none of them have chemistry

season 2 handled ha na and so moon with care. do hwi was added to send us the message that so moon got over his "crush" and lost interest in ha na. ha na and so moon's moments of solidarity have always made them 100% older sister/younger brother goals. season 2 didn't ruin their dynamic, and that's what i like about it

i watched for byeong kyu and hong nae. the iconic duo worked together more than once (dokgo rewind and the uncanny counter)

i like the show

that's because it’s difficult to replicate the experience of watching something for the first time. the thrill that accompanies the 1st season of a drama doesn't happen when the drama returns for season 2. people would compare season 2 with season 1 and find petty faults in season 2. they wouldn't be emotionally invested at the level a 2nd season requires. it happens all the time. it doesn't mean the 2nd season isn't worth watching

edit: the uncanny counter 2 is #6 on netflix global. it's achieved remarkable success by ranking 6th on netflix's global top 10 non-english drama list! it's doing very well

i like season 2 more than season 1

please let people feel how they feel about the drama. you don't like it? that's okay. some of us like it. the focus on ml didn't ruin it for or disappoint us

i watched moving attentively, and it sucked

ratings don't matter. the best dramas get the worst ratings, and the worst dramas get the best ratings

i disagree. moving is a blatant marvel/dc rip-off with similar power sets, lackluster acting and awkward scripts. 7 episodes of teenagers disregarding their parents' wishes, lying and fighting over a girl? it's not new or interesting. i stuck around for frank's backstory

the uncanny counter season 2 is a new story with new conflicts and dynamics to watch on its own. the counters will navigate a falling out with their firefighter friend. so moon will move forward and grow stronger for his uncanny family. jeok bong's funny clumsiness will carry the counters through the darkest times. and so moon and ha na will shine bright with their brother/sister dynamic

the humor, action and level-headed storytelling mesh well together and have plenty of room to breathe. i wasn't overwhelmed or frustrated
