The reason why he didn’t leave this place after the first night is still a mystery to me

Ok I just finished it in two days lol. I think that the beginning of the drama was really well done in terms of directing and screenwriting; it was intense, dark and addictive. Together with an original synopsis and great acting, I was really surprised by the quality of this drama. Too bad that the intensity faded away after the middle of the show (as it happens a lot with kdramas), it kept dragging and then they rushed it in the two final episodes. The drama lost its appeal and it became average, I was still curious about the ending so I watched it all. Overall it was a good drama but has the potential to be so much better

I wish we had more of them

When I first tried to watch this drama, I’ve dropped it after two episodes. But fortunately my sister who was also watching it, encouraged me to continue and I did, after episode 3/4 I was in. This drama is truly one of a kind and my personal all time favorite. I’ve rewatched it three times already, and I will still be watching it in the future. Please, do not say that it’s boring if you only saw the first episodes, this is a masterpiece and I would advise you to give it a second chance, you won’t regret it

The plot sounds original lol

They deserved better

The Empress and her brother were my favorite characters

Can someone suggest me a similar drama with a charismatic actress such as Lee Yoo Ri

Where can I watch it? Please

Please please make it happen! With the same cast T_T

Well said

It’s a private matter and it shouldn’t affect their work. In the end, no matter what they write about each other, we don’t know anything about the situation so I’m always surprised when I see people commenting like they were part of the family.. Their mistake was to make it public, they ruined each other’s careers and reputations, what a shame

Hahaha so true

If that's not a masterpiece, I don't know what is... but I can understand that the style might not be everyone's cup of tea

Congrats for all the amazing movie roles!!! He was so good in Parasite. Absolutely love him, he is so unique, versatile and so talented

More precisely, he kills him in a moment off pure anger in reaction to the CEO’s attitude and his absolute hatred towards the poor. In front of the final scene chaos, the only thing that he has to say is that it stinks... Gi Taek has regrets later on which indicates that he wouldn’t have killed him if the CEO had shown at least a bit of empathy

The reason why he kills the CEO is explained through the whole movie, it is to me, actually, the whole point of the movie. There is this constant contrast between the rich and the poor and the continuous comparison between the two. Even though the poor appear like the bad guys, their doings can be explained by a problem of the whole Korean society evoqued several times in the movie (no jobs, no studies if no money etc) meanwhile the rich are living their lives without any concern. They appear like the good guys but they are so blind that they won’t even see that all their staff are frauds, that’s how much they don’t give a shit about others. The message is that through the poor are the only ones who are struggling and suffering, this society problem will eventually explode into the rich people’s face.

I watched it in a theatre in Seoul last week, gosh this movie is something else!! It reminds me why I love korean cinema so much, just waw 10/10

Yes I did long years ago haha, that’s also the role that made me a fan of him, need to watch it again asap

The first ten episodes are so painful to watch (great acting tho)
