It starts out quite heavy and takes a while to like the characters - but by the end of episode 2 my heart's fully invested, can't wait for next week.

I know what you mean, I also think it's bluster. I lifted 'strong' from a Gram-induced article. Btw legal action has not started. It's starting 'next week'. That's pretty quick to put a defence together... they've had a few months to prepare, it's a last resort - and you know what? All those earlier press releases are legally worded yet will still harm their 'defence' (not defence, they'll be the plaintiff). That's why I inferred she's guilty. But what else can they do when they're backed into a corner?
(I'm going to go back and mark all my replies with 'spoiler', we're taking up the whole page)

Thanks, you know your stuff.

Right, what sort of legal action involves compromise? Equivocal legal action?

Who cares? I like it, it's dramatic.

I know. It's more like 'J' though. It's just to look cool. You liked The Classic. Bali though... wow that's melodrama on steroids, I was on team Ji-sub.
If you can find an article from 10 years ago using 'Z' let me know.

Not bothered... but when did Jo In-sung become Zo In-sung, is he trying to sound cool? 😆

What exactly is 'strong' legal action? It's just legal action.

This is going to be great, what a super idea!

I hear you, and I hope I'm wrong. But you know when it seems like an entity barks like a dog? Gram is not taking any old legal action... but strong legal action. Sounds like the way Kim Jong-un's sister threatens the USA. It's bullshit.

Call it a gut feeling based on the recent accusation and the rebuttal issued by her agent - which had guilty written all over it. I'm disinterested in this actress, I've never seen anything she's in, I'd never heard of her - I'm in a position where I don't care if she's guilty or innocent, and I find her guilty. It's not personal. I must have been reading different articles to you. From what I read there were 7 accounts, 4 unreliable, 2 reliable, 1 very strong witness. I'm no expert, what I read has not been verified, it was written in Dispatch. My opinion is based on the initial report and rebuttal. It's only my opinion.

Yes I know Dispatch said that about some of the accusers. I didn't know there were 8, where did you read that? I guess some were fake and others easy to pay off.

Jang Hyuk from your list 👍, a great and versatile actor. Wasn't he offered Secret Garden at one point? Gong Yoo too afaik. I wonder if they regret turning it down, I couldn't imagine anyone except Hyun Bin, so great. I wonder when Hyun Bin will make a return to dramas.

I was being deliberately obtuse, it doesn't capture her likeness. Everyone else is recognisable.

Dispatch has assigned several reporters to investigate, it's not only the transcripts.

It discarded the reports of 4 informants due to unreliable and conflicting statements.

There are 3 informants remaining whose information is reliable, one in particular. Dispatch is not backing down. As part of its research it found a report in the past which appears consistent with the new reports.

As far as I can tell, Dispatch offered a deal to the actress/agency that they'd print a feature sympathetic to her side if she admitted to the claims.

Meanwhile the actress's agency has said it's going to take it to court and sue. It sounds like an intimidation bluff to me, true colours are being revealed. It will be interesting to see what happens next. Unless they're confident of silencing the accusers I don't see how they believe they'll have a chance in court - instead they could dig their hole a little deeper.

If that's the case why did she make such bizarre statements to the press about this particular accusation? It made her sound guilty. Strange choices of words.

Where's Han Hyo-joo gone, dead already?

Yes. I'll ignore. What am I even doing on this page?

Just as the world's got sick to death of superheroes? I hope not, the hero concept makes me feel physically sick. The grounded idea behind Moving is a bit like the American drama Heroes from 20 years ago. Series 1 was pretty interesting. Then they made a second season - with the clear motivation to just keep making seasons, they kept increasing the abilities (big mistake, repeated even to this day with every single superhero genre) and it really turned into a giant turd. I hope Moving just finishes gracefully, I know it won't, but it should.

Aigoo. His career changed after Gong Shim, less than 10 years ago - apart from his acting skills and charisma, he also showed great generosity towards Bang Min-ah. I might have misinterpreted an inference that he's shallow, it's the opposite - his dramas over the past 7 years often don't have a romantic heroine, and all have well formed female characters of certain ages - because that's just how old they are in the drama. The actresses are beautiful. If you look at Ji-won's track record it's similar to NM, many of her male co-stars are younger than her.
