So it isn't ML or FL, just a main character? Would be easier if you said ML/FL, the lines can get blurry otherwise

Thanks, it's my first time looking at the comments yesterday and I was surprised by that take, really surprised! Nothing seems irritating or stupid at all, it's really well observed to me, it never crossed my mind. I've only got good thoughts about it, so I should steer clear of MDL comments - which is normal for ongoing dramas for me, mainly to avoid spoilers etc. In this case, to avoid spoiling my feeling!

Sure, I see what you mean - agree on the scenario for teens being done often, sometimes they do understand and show compassion... I think you've got one drama in mind, which one are you thinking of? I watched a light/fun middle-age/teens drama recently called Never Give Up, I liked the kids in it, they made a good job of it.

I don't see what's confusing or irritating - it's funny that the last time I saw comments like that were for the 3 Gwang jamae, weird coincidence maybe.

Again, as intended - that really made me laugh out loud, but it's too cheap to write 'lol' since it's perceived cynically these days. You're making me laugh in a good way - I like you 🫰

Anyone that tries to weaponise the word misogyny... ignore them, they're using the word incorrectly - they might as well start by saying: "I'm an idiot... here's what I want to say..."

Those are good numbers, it's on cable... and I guess Netflix is bound to be pulling good numbers too

Learned something I didn't know in episode 4... Nam Ji-hyun speaks beautiful English, with just a few words, perfect enunciation and she stayed in character

Agree. I totally relate to all of their perspectives, feelings, actions, I love how many perspectives are on display!

The only thing I don't agree with you about - this is a top tier drama, writing, acting, direction is from the very top drawer.

It was my intention to give that impression, thanks for noticing.... I think 🤔 or maybe, you missed my point? Oh well, have a good day, sir.

Only one thing struck me about InHye this week... episodes 3-4... what a fine young actress - she is absolutely incredible, for example her reaction while eating steak at the rich family's barbecue. This is a stunning piece of work all round, everywhere you look it's got nuances, quality, subtlety, it's deeply thought out - a drama full of the best talent, working magic together.

Sorry, I digressed, to go back to your point, starting with 2. - selling her art online? Fine art is a niche market, highly exclusive, selling it online would be like throwing it away. Get a job? She's an artist who's being indulged by a wealthy family showing off their best side, she's in the best place from her perspective - nothing else compares, no way she'd prefer a typical teenage job for pocket change.

Point 1. bratty teens... do you have a teen daughter? You said you understand why teens in dramas act this way (I don't see the typical teen saga playing out here, she's pretty mature imo), but still, you explained the situation well, as if you understood perfectly, then said you don't understand? Family matters are claustrophobic and suffocating for teens, especially so for a young artist that wants to explode - and we're watching her scenario from a vantage point she doesn't have. From a personal perspective, I knew a talented kid that made a friend through their field of talent, started mixing in much richer circles than the family's modest background; this drama is nailing it down, the kid's viewpoint is typically pragmatic.

Err... can you remember to have a point before making a comment? This is the comment section for Little Women right?

Aigoo, spoken like a true narcissist, you responded exactly as I predicted you would. The problem is you can't see why your comments are negative, you just don't get it. I'll give you one last chance: tell me one thing you like about this drama.

You don't know what you're talking about. All you do is look at the ratings and say 3% this and 3% that. You know nothing about his works, what's good, what isn't, so you base a stupid opinion on ratings and keep on repeating it 'til you're blue in the face. I know your type: s**t disturber and gaslighter. You're an attention seeking troll commenter with nothing to say... after all, as I said before, you've made 0% constructive comments... not even 3% for you. Did you know that all your comments are negative? 0% positive. Not even 3% there either. So long, weirdo.

Wow, this is a quality piece of work. Simply stunning.

Thanks for letting us know

Thank you, that's the comment I needed to see 🫰

They've revealed who the strange occupant of the room is and some of his actions, you haven't missed anything, let's not spoil it for others

Stop whining, it's not tragic or saddening, he's made another great drama with integrity, stop worrying about JCW, you're not his friend. I think he's comfortable with himself and enjoys his work. Some actors sell their souls just for ratings and instant fame, others build a high quality portfolio - there's a place for both, I regard the latter category as the one containing the better artistry and/or talent. Such actors value the works, even though the mass audience wasn't aware at the time. Most Oscar winning films are not ratings winners, and likewise, ratings champions don't win the top prizes for artistic merit. Depends where you stand - you seem to want everything... you can't have it all. You want it all, you whine all the time, you have yet to make a constructive compliment about this show. Please start by saying something constructive if you're a fan, if you want anyone to believe you. I think you're a weirdo. That's just my opinion.

Nicely put. What do you mean by villain in a modern drama - does that mean you're excepting Empress Ki which was largely villainous? It was extreme enough for an entire career: a manipulated, infantile, shallow, drug addict, rapist, murderer, sometimes romantic, occasionally stoic. It was one of the best performances I've seen of a flawed and troubled individual who lacked the mettle to live up to his position on his own. He's been there and done it, not sure I could take any more of his villains, he really hits home!
