Interesting views. I think not - it had plenty of time to allow us to connect with the bad guy and feel something for him, but it failed. His final phone call with the AI was intended to be poignant. It was not successful imo. And I like sexual content when there's a context for it, but it told us nothing and provided no additional value - it wasn't even titillating. As far as the bad guy's portrayal goes, he did ok but the edit was incongruous, I didn't connect his jump between smart adult and infantilism as he tormented the wheelchair girl... and what super powers were on display inside the silo and swiftly running down the stairs carrying a body? Judging by the dates, this piece was filmed a year ago and has spent a while being stitched together in the editing suite.

Right! What was the point of the CEO of Somebody?

An autistic boy threw a child off the roof of a museum in England, a crime worthy of the death penalty, they'll probably coddle him instead. Why do we see one autistic portrayal and assume it's a representation of the entire autistic community, we're all different, aren't we?

"My biggest issue here is the autistic girl is also a psychopathic killer"
Autism's ok, but psychopaths are not, ok, got it. All psychopaths should be outcasts?

The scene with the mother will be recognised by parents and grown-up children in the spectrum. It's meaningless, all children make mistakes when they grow up.

Simon and Garfunkel's Scarborough Fair? I thought it was a disgraceful cover version, the original is a haunting piece, this cover lost the haunting and added some childish melody which spoilt it completely. Netflix dramas have the absolute worst music.

Yuppie serial killer. Just another lazy, shallow comparison.

This movie is everything you'd expect. Some good moments, but infantile psychology. It's not new any more, it's become trite. I'd like to see Netflix produce something from Japan that isn't related to sex, manga, swords and Yakuza. There's plenty of good quality available, maybe this is what some Japanese producers think the rest of the world expects from them?

Maybe an excuse for some SM porn. It was a flashback to a year earlier, perhaps that's how he got started.
Maybe click the spoiler button if you're going to reveal so much?

Not the most profound thing I've ever seen. It used up its ideas by half way and coasted from there, should have been a movie. I liked the central characters, but all in all feel I've just wasted my time on another Netflix click bait. All style over substance again, and surprisingly unsexy soft porn.

Their agents try hard to set these things up, because it makes them look better than they are, it's good for their resumé. The thought is that if a proper actor is willing to work with them, they must be considered okay. Personally, I thought she wasn't bad in My ID, and that was opposite Cha Eun-woo(den)

Same here, totally, thanks for the reply

Reborn Rich looked a lot like Again My Life, but it's much better imo, I'm addicted to it. Is Three Bold Siblings any good? 21% sounds good, but that time slot usually has a captive audience of 30%. Never started Queen's Umbrella, Netflix trailer looked a bit mental, maybe I'll watch - brief synopsis in this article actually sounds a lot better than I imagined.

Wow, she looks fantastic, that 5th still has so much going on

She wasn't away for long, but let's throw a party, I guess

「This time, Lee Young Ae will take up the challenge of the music thriller genre. 」

What on earth is the music thriller genre? Any other titles from that genre to give me a clue?

Agree, I was dumbfounded when NK imposter went out clubbing, drawing attention to himself and potentially blowing his cover. Then the loud conversations he and his wife have in SK dialect when they think they're behind closed doors - they're going to get caught at this rate, I guess it's what happens next that matters!

I hope so too, not that I don't love the World Cup, but K-dramas are the perfect tonic for any disappointments on the football pitch, I can get past anything when I have new episodes to watch!

So far I'm really enjoying the show, so happy to watch Ha Ji-won every week. But there are a few jarring factors I have to push past in each episode...
Halmeoni looks a little too sprightly for a sick 92 year old.... and when I see so many of Son Ye-jin's colleagues from CLOY, it feels like she missed the party - I keep imagining how she'd have played it whilst watching my beloved Ji-won.
Anyway, it's fully warmed up nicely now after 6 episodes, fully enjoying every week.
Sung Dong-il's character is fascinating - caring with a ruthless streak, a bit like a warm hearted fixer.
Must also mention Hwang Woo-seul Hye, in every single drama she's in, she has an indomitable charm that uplifts every scene in which she appears, such a delight.

Agree, upvoted. I'm a total HJW fan so won't hear of it... but the same thoughts crossed my mind - but then I also realised the awkwardness could have been deliberate, just great acting by KHN, the situations so far all call for concealed awkwardness, reticence and fumblings. It's getting better.
