A bit soulless, I strangely felt nothing. The dogs were all cute but it was more like a documentary including the most static road trip I've ever seen, couldn't be less cinematic. Still, 7/10 because it was nice to watch dogs starring in a movie with lovely actors.

The title is One Fine Day but in every outdoor scene it's either raining or cloudy 😆. I just binge watched and enjoyed it very much.

Thanks, I agree with all of what you say, it's just we differ on whether those points are positives or negatives. I think The Oscars has become ridiculous too. It's unclear whether a winner is chosen because of their identity politics, race or talent, it's ludicrous - this year's disgrace sunk it even lower.

Hence, I was also disappointed that Baeksang appeared to give a prize to the largest investor, not for an outstanding work. It depends how one defines "outstanding" doesn't it?

Regarding sour grapes... mine are sour, I'm a Disney anti-fan. Mainly due to its lack of artistic integrity but also because of its identity politics, it cares more about subliminally brainwashing kids with identity politics than providing great, uplifting stories. And it's reached a point where diversity doesn't make sense any more, like omitting the dwarfs from the new Snow White movie. It's been swallowed up by its own bubble - it's already lost half the USA, maybe that's why it's trying to claw back its losses from SK. Somehow Disney has managed to turn itself into a toxic brand, go figure.

Did you just say "reread my comments"? No. It's not possible to "reread" something I haven't read once.

What people watch, how they watch it, when they drop it, why they drop it... is up to them. They don't have to move on, use your logic or follow any of your suggestions. So emotional over a show where grown adults pretend to fly and whatnot. I'll be direct, the first 2 episodes disgusted me so much I didn't stick around to watch Hyo-joo or wait for Jo In-sung to show up - I knew I'd be disappointed in them if I did.

This award show is only ott, and it's a reward for their investments. Totally incestuous. I have no interest in this new vein of K-drama and haven't completed or started any of them - I find them too shallow for my taste.

Oh, p s. I forgot something, The Glory raised a few eyebrows at Baeksang this year. It was questioned whether it was really worthy... or it was just that the ceremony coincided with Netflix's announcement of new investments in SK content, worth $2bn.

P.p.s... Crash Course in Romance was a network (tvN?) drama, distributed by Netflix, not an ott production.

She's a great actress and has a beautiful smile. She glows in the movie The Beauty Inside, my favourite of her works so far.

It looked just like an American superhero show. I only watched the first 2 deaths, didn't see any reason to stay for #3.

Of course it is. If would be a bit rude not to award a prize to the most expensive drama ever from a foreign investor.

Yes, I agree completely.

Agree, I reached ep.2 and dropped. No way I could stick with it for 7 eviscerations (I mean 'episodes') like @Wind mentioned.

Are you two enjoying yourselves?

I think gangsters of this magnitude have connections that make it possible. The heroine got one from somewhere.

She got help, but like you said, way too easily - like the girl she met who opened the door in the love hotel. A random girl she'd never met.

That scene at the factory was weak. The gangsters were like non-player-characters in video games.

Yes, the problem is that this/these characters could be anyone, nobody will remember them next week.
Regarding time, I mentioned earlier a film of similar length (1h33) that shows how it's possible to tell a compelling story... and it makes the action even more exciting: A Company Man is on Viki (USA) at the moment.

I'm not drawn to Namsoon, maybe because Park Bo-young left big boots to fill... or maybe once is enough.

This goes to show how far OTT platforms have still to go - if they need their own 'awards' and if this is the best they can do, well, it comes across a bit pathetic and sad.

They don't call you badass bunny for no reason, so scary 😆

Touch some grass. Weak minds make things personal in an argument, but since you've started: That's ironic coming from a person that laps up rank average movie fodder.
