Oui, j’ai survécu ! 😅
Awaken avait vraiment l’air intéressant : le pitch de départ était solide, les acteurs très bons, et les premiers épisodes plutôt prometteurs. Et comme la majorité des critiques étaient positives, j’y croyais vraiment.

Mais petit à petit… tout est parti en sucette, comme on dit.
Le scénario s’est progressivement éloigné de l’intrigue principale — jusque‑là crédible et fun — pour dériver vers un “fantasy” complètement rocambolesque.
Bonjour les références sci‑fi, les cliffhangers à répétition et les clichés inutiles 🙄
On aurait dit qu’ils ne savaient pas comment conclure l’histoire de manière plausible, et qu’en cours de route ils avaient décidé de transformer le tout en récit fantastique pour éviter d’avoir à justifier logiquement les événements et les actions des personnages.

J’ai aussi regretté le manque de développement des personnages féminins (et de leurs relations familiales), ainsi que l’introduction d’une mini sous‑intrigue “romantique” — heureusement très courte — qui n’apportait absolument rien.
Si j’ai regardé jusqu’au bout, c’est pour deux raisons : l’espoir que la narration finirait par se reprendre et le jeu du talentueux Namkoong Min.

Mais évidemment, ce n’est que mon avis 😉

Your personal tastes are 100% valid. You don't have to change your mind about it at all. Your tastes are your own 💝I completely understand why you would feel that while watching "Through the Darkness". I like reading/hearing different opinions.

I couldn't agree with you more about "Goblin" (I was already left perplexed by the important age gap but why did the FL played her role like a 14-year old? Anyway, overall I didn't find that drama particularly good. And yes, I watched it completely. I still remember how looooong it was).
I also completely agree with your comments about "Bloodhounds" but you lost me on "Through the Darkness" (I loved the documentary-like / subdued slow drama. It was so fascinating in every aspects that I found it very entertaining)😉
PS: I haven't watched the other titles on your list yet.

By the way, I really enjoy your other lists too. Love all your comments ! 👌🏻👍🏻

Thank you for your reply ! 🙏🏻

Does it have a happy end ?

Oh that's so kind ! Thank you so much ! 💝🙏🏻 Creativity... I might give it a try.

Thx for all the links ! Looks fun... but I don't really understand what this Variety Show's about. What do these 4 guys have to do exactly ?

Exactly 😢

Hi ! Could you please use the Spoiler Tag for your comment ? Thx for your understanding ! 🙏🏻

The owner of the EAW rights is AStory and they have publicly confirmed that they signed a contract with the screenwriter Moon Ji Won to write a second season of Extraordinary Attorney Woo. However, production has been delayed because Moon Ji Won is committed to directing her film "Deaf Boys," and will only be able to begin work on the script after completing that project.

Correct me if I'm wrong, didn't they add Hyper Knife, Low Life, Red Swan, Gangnam B-side, The Judge from Hell... (depending of the region) ?

Promoting struggling local businesses... People helping people... I LOVE THAT !

Nooooooooooooooooo.... !!!

Same ! (I've got nothing against that lovely girl)
But maybe this "unhinged" role will make me like her acting... 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Sadly this Voting List has ended too ! 😭😭

Oh no it this Voting List endend ! 😢
In my opinion this Voting List is STILL (and always will be) relevant, so it should NEVER expire. There are new shows, new MDL users... Is it possible to re-activate it ? 🙏🏻

Maybe this movie will finally make me appreciate Lim Yoon A's acting ? 🙏🏻🫤🤞🏻
(Please don't come at my throat, I've got NOTHING personal against that lovely woman !)

And from MDL !

"This makes no sense" because there's obviouly information that we don't know about and that we shouldn't know about. It's their PRIVATE life and it's certainly not for us to make sense of it or not.

Divorce isn't easy, even when the decision is mutual. Wishing both parties the best.
PS: she's a talented actress. I want to see her in more dramas or films.
