i really have to praise this drama. i think the last time that i watched a chinese production that still had me…
in addition, the background music and sound effects need praise for tolerable levels and appropriate mood. the overall visual editing is not my cup of tea but i love the animated sequences.
i really have to praise this drama. i think the last time that i watched a chinese production that still had me hooked near the half way mark despite it's length was in 2015. nirvana in fire, the disguiser, tiger mom, go princess go...that was a special year. i have not rolled my eyes, ff'd generously, cringed (ok, the fl cries a little too much for my taste but it makes sense), or wanted to off a dumb character (usually female) the past 15 episodes. bravo for this wholesome and well crafted work! well done rookie leads!
by what standard? plus, you've only seen two episodes
if that is your personal feelings, you are more than entitled to it. also, i am not emotionally attached to the show in any way. i just cannot figure out what standard you used to measure the drama as being one of the greatest since the script, its execution so far, and the roles the leads play are all recycled ... i've followed seo in guk's career and this is the 3rd time in a row he's played this type of character. less than 20 % of the drama aired and literally nothing significant has happened.
I'm still in shock one hour after reading the news of Haruma's passing. I was wondering why none of his works came up in my searches lately and thought he was taking an hiatus. Will miss this beautiful and tender soul.
Hmm... I hope you might see that addressing challenging attitudes/narratives does not equate to seriousness or being hurt. There are many subjects that I can laugh at but there are those subjects that I choose not to laugh at... especially for the sake of entertainment... and they include narratives that promote toxic views of men and women. The two scenes were particularly harmful as I saw it. I chose to point out the scenes because I felt that I should disrupt the narrative even in a small way. I hope this is helpful.
wow. i can't believe stories where women are the source of all evil are still being made. cultural heritage or not, it hard to swallow this kind of stuff. peace out.
