Title Mr. Right
FYI, for anyone thinking this won't air: 1. THAAD is over. China and South Korea came to an agreement on it and China has released its ban as of the end of October, 2017. 2. ALL Chinese dramas are PRE-produced because of Communist censorship. It has to edited and approved to the Censorship Boards discretion before they will release it. The Production submits the story along with filming locations for pre-approval. They film the entire drama and submit it to the censors. The censors review it with editing comments, The Production makes the appropriate edits and resubmits as often times as required for final approval and release to air in China. The process tends to take about 1-2 years, thus, most C-dramas you're watching were filmed long before you got to see them and the actors/actresses are already moving on to other things. ...so, you'll also already know if you ship sailed or not --- hahaha... So, saying this will air in 2020 is a safe bet. Production usually gives a standard timeframe they are looking at to get this on the screen, and most often, they are fairly accurate. Unless North Korea does something drastic to cause a war, I don't see South Korea/China foregoing their trade relations. It's just as important to China as it is to Korea.

They were already married on September 1st, they just haven't announced when or IF they'll have a wedding reception and public interview about it.

Even though they've denied it, it looks as if they've been together since the beginning of 2015 after they starred together in Senryokugai Sousakan, so it's not as bad as it first sounded to me.

It's becoming more common in South Korea as well, but not as readily accepted, I think, but are there ANY Japanese actors/actresses that DON'T do the shotgun wedding? They date forever and it's like the girl needs to find a way to get pregnant for the dude to settle down. ...at least the South Korean culture is more accepting of female parenthood alongside having a successful career. Kim Hee Ae comes to mind when I think about this.. but not too many Japanese actresses do the same. Is it really their choice to be housewives only OR does society demand it of them even in this day and age?

@Iwyn I don't want to start season 3 until it's completely subbed. Do you have a timeframe of when you'll upload the final episode?

Thank you for doing this...we'd have never gotten to understand this quirky drama without the subs.

Wow. Romance, if you are a young celebrity, especially a male, is so broken and unfair. They cannot win either…
I was kind of shocked people were bothered by this. Thanks for this comment...I had to laugh because my comment maybe long but like you said, I wasn't writing because I "care about "celebrity relationships", I was pontificating on the fact that netizens/fans/shippers have such an impact on celebrity's private lives and how they cannot live normal lives and how I think it's kind of tragic..lol....oh well...

Maybe I don't have a life...I just do what other people are doing, watch Asian dramas and movies and comment about them and review them. I have an International Business degree with a minor in finance but I grew up always wanting to be a writer. It takes me minutes to type out my thoughts, not all day... so, whatever, let em mock me. lol... It's not worth taking this stuff personally especially when it's obvious the person didn't even bother to read what I wrote. At least I took the time to read everyone else's opinion...

Wow. Romance, if you are a young celebrity, especially a male, is so broken and unfair. They cannot win either way. You get the fans clamoring for them to go public and admit their relationships. The fans go out of their way to post pics and evidence that they are in a relationship. If they don't get evidence and they wait until they announce their marriage you get a 50/50 reaction. You can become like Sung Min of Super Junior, where the fans boycott you for lying and disrespecting them. You can become like Song/Song couple, where you're engaged since February, Dispatch holds off because you have friends in high places, so another agency actually violates your privacy and in the midst of fans sympathy, use it to your advantage to announce you're getting married and have the fans support you. Or you're like Shin Min Ah and Kim Woo Bin, who are absolute poster childs for IDGAF personailities and even go out to eat, letting fans take pics of them while ignoring them completely and living in their own little couple world [Korean celebrities take note]. It's a toss up on how it plays out and LUCK is really the biggest factor and varible in the outcome.

If you're not good at hiding from the fans and papz prying eyes, like Hyeri and Jun Yeol or Joo Hyuk and Sung Kyung or Crystal and Kai and get photos taking of you having a date and enyoying NORMAL life watching a ColdPlay concert, or in your parkas sitting on a bench snuggling up looking at a lake, or snuggling up alone in an indoor pool, then you become FORCED to acknowledge your relationship. Unless the couple has a strong fanbase that will love them no matter what their actions are, and/or have the fortitude to say IDGAF to everyone and take the heat and/or be a person who doesn't require validation in the majority of their activities in life, they are proabably doomed to breakup. Maturity helps with establishing the IDGAF attitude, this is why most celebrities wait until after 30 to get married...even waiting as far away as 40 years old. Even then, like Shin Hwa's Eric Mun, your fans will tell you to step down as leader and tell you that you've betrayed them by keeping them in the dark. What they probably really wanted to do was to ridicule her pre-marriage because it's over when they're married. The fans become resentful because they sitll want their pound of flesh.

When the couple gets caught and are subjected to the CONSTANT lookie-lous and questioning, and interference into their private lives, the pressure is on. If the couple succumb to the pressure and break up then the other side of the coin happens, they get demonized for going PUBLIC, even though the fans know they themselves, in their lust for news of their private lives, FORCED them to have to go public in the first place. It's not like any of the folks I just named intended or even WANTED to go public right now with their relationships. It's just they aren't good at stealth ninja-like actions, and counter-spy measures. Unfortunately for them, they act like they want to have NORMAL lives while being a Korean celebrity....ain't gonna happen in this lifetime.

So, yeah, this is brutal but what do you expect when you live in a country that refers to a mere romantic celebrity relationship as a "scandal". I **still** cannot wrap my mind around that concept. In the USA, a "scandal" is when someone does something **wrong** like getting caught cheating on your wife, or doing drugs, or breaking the law, or being an indecent human being with indecent human actions. It's not a scandal to act within the law and do everything a NORMAL human being does in their daily lives...but who am I to judge???? lol.....

For those wanting eng subs for series produced by GMM One, the best is to go to their international YouTube channel…
Yep. This is sometimes the case. When that happens we have no choice but wait for the fanmade subs and thank them and bless them for their time and their care for us fans who don't have the ability to do what they do. ;)

It's fine with me if you wanna copy+paste my comment or you can just write your own comment similar to this and post it. I comment about GMMTV where I think it'll help, but there are still many people who don't have the patience to wait. ;)

I know the Chinese love to do it, but I really hate cliffhanger endings. Its almost as bad as the lets just kill…
It's because China is a Communist country and the government controls all messaging and story arcs that the media and entertainment industry convey to the public that isn't contrary to their political beliefs or, from their perspective, interfering with the government control by the Communist Party.

Because of this fact, these dramas have to be completely PRE-produced and handed to the censorship board prior to airing. There are many a completed drama that got shelved by the censors for one reason or another that have never seen the light of day. You'll wait and wait, and they'll postpone the release, and eventually people will forget. That means, even when the drama is completed, they may require to edit or what-not and the process can take a month, months, or years. The actors have to make a living, so they are constantly going into other shows to make a salary. They don't have time to wait around for everything to get resolved...and because this process is not set-in-stone and there is NO WAY to PREDICT how long the process will be, no actor can fully commit to anything until they are CERTAIN the direction it will go. It's pretty much up in the air. ...if they are a popular actor/actress the already booked schedule is more than likely, and that's just how the process falls. It's not anyone's fault in particular... they live in a country that tries to control their mouths and minds, it's the price they pay to live in that kind of society.

For those wanting eng subs for series produced by GMM One, the best is to go to their international YouTube channel GMMTV. You'll get the raw version from there first...and then GMMTV actually provides the English subtitles to their own stuff...you just have to wait a few weeks after the original release. Of course, you can go to the regular streaming sites if they found someone who subbed them faster, but it's probably the nicer thing to do to watch from GMMTV to support the people who actually produce these shows for you in the first place. A weeks wait isn't much to ask for correctly subbed dramas commercial free.... of course, except for **product placement** lol...

Movie was shown in Japan in June, 2017, Subtitles do not come out until the DVD is released to the public to which are usually torrented uploaded and those links are what various Japanese subbers use to sync their subtitles. Generally speaking, especially if it's a popular movie, the process to release out subs to sites is usually about 6 months. Based on this, do not expect subs until December, 2017... for Japanese movies please add 6 months to the airdate and consider that your true release date as such.

The shorter dramas are really ranking up their game, I guess. These are becoming more and more popular.

I don't think this has gotten subbed. To my knowledge, Memory lost 1 was completely subbed.
Thank you so much for doing this subbing. I hope you're able to also sub Season 3. Leaving this partially subbed is a travesty because it is a really good show.
