what about great production values but a bloated script and mediocre actors? would you call that low quality and 99% bad? when i compare both, i would take a good story and committed actors over pretty anyday.

what's wrong with filming on a phone? as long as the story is good, no?.

no, sorry. that was another author.

I'm so confused how the original IP is being profitted off of when the writer is in jail for 10 years for publishing the original work.

how did i recognize the name of a character from a drama from 13 years ago in a drama from aanother country made almost a decade later just by the name of the character which wasn't even clear? i'm so impressed by the legacy of the drama, but more so, the character/actor.

8.6 is criminally overrated for this drama. so misleading. i think this is the second drama -- i've seen a lot -- that i feel suffocated by the endless talking about what happened and what is going to happen.

Wish I hadn't followed subreddit comments and come back to this drama. I initially dropped it a episode 1 and started at 2 this time. I think episode 1 would have reminded me that the show was iffy if I had gone back to the start (sigh).

This is just a gut feeling, but the production is sus another set up to milk previous productions and provide opportunities for rookies/idols. Had this same thought with a few other dramas when veteran actors don't seem to give enough prep for roles often repeating aspects of previous characters which has been a huge turn off. For anyone ready to chew me out, I'm not saying this is true, just saying that the production seems like this and this is a turn off.

I also love this comment on AsianWiki:

I just want to know why no one has thought to return to the farm and check the cows memories? Surely one of the animals there would have seen the third person.

Overall, frustrated by the overwhelming amount of talent on the show that didn't do it for me and the oveuse of misdirecting the viewer's gaze, epecially by infantalizing the fl, that kept the plot spinning on its wheels.

I feel she's a good physical actor, so she is pretty alright in this kind of comedy. I do appreciate her effort and I think she loves doing this. I think the behind the camera work and pacing helps with the vibrancy of what you see on screen too. As for more nuanced acting, I still cannot. Every time (every show) I see her do her face thing and drop into her weight to show complex emotion,I just want to ff. I would have loved to have seen Jung So-min here, tbh. I keep thinking she would have totally killed this role after her go at AoS.

Just responding to the original comment.

Really? He comes off more as a pet than a spouse. I find it icky.

I'm really struggling to make it through this seeason. The constant messaging about serving the state and the people is too much. It could have been handled with more refinement. It takes away so much from the story for me.

That's so unfortunate. Sending your healing vibes.

You can still be proud of your culture and at the same time root out the parts of it that are not or no longer useful or relevant.

I couldn't even watch it. I saw it in the subtitles and hit the ff button.

I thought I couldn't be more shocked than the last few times I've been on MDL. Are you seriously ranking levels of mistresses and second families? What about the unfaithful spouses? Do they have no agency? Wouldn't the problem really lie there?

And, how comes your family full of seemingly cheating spouses (this is may come across as an insult, but I don't know a better way to put it)?

I also came from a similar background and still do not find it acceptable to raise a hand to strike a child or any person in my charge. I also don't think her choice to be a single mom, instead of remarrying, is more respectable than the other option to remarry. Wouldn't either be fine when thinking of her and her child's well-being? Of course, there are social rules around her that would make the choice to stay a single mother more agreeable since the child technically belongs to her husband's family.

just wow.

I'm surprised that people are justifying the mother's actions as simply discipline and that it is historically, culturally, or geographically relative to what is constituted as abuse. Is it not possible to call the situation what it is even though the mom's intention was to do the right thing? We don't have to hate her as she was trying to do her best. Personally, I think the mother stepped over the bounds of moderation and as a consequenceshe more that strained the relationship with her son. It looks like healing will come for the two.

Interesting. I can't speculate as to what the cause is, since that is his personal life and work to go through with professional assistance and a support network. I am just aware that there would be a cause and that I don't need to position myself toward him from a place of prejudice or moral superiority.
