And a K-drama mother who sees her adult children as separate from herself and able to make their own life choices!…
I thought he was oblivious tbh, no clues that he twigged from the scene. This drama's clumsy character depictions paint him as a thick headed but basically kind, working class man, all in 2D. The best (not this drama) writers use psychological profiles to beef out the characters so they are consistent, entertaining and interesting. When you feel nothing much for the characters (this drama) it's usually because they're badly drawn.
So many thoughts...! I also read that they already got married in New York, wonder what's true. Did she get swept away in the romance at this year's big ceremony? Or thought it's now or never? I hope he's a nice man, I mean, she's A-list gold and this brings him a lot of celebrity points, wouldn't like to think he's a gold-digger of power and money... On the other hand I'd be comfortable if Gong Hyo-jin treats him like a love toy, kicks his ass now and then... yep, scenes from dramas flashing through my head, I'm rooting for the female lead (no wait, that's a scene from the recent drama Eve with the rich wife and her servant! 🔥) My image of her is gentle and sensitive, but all top celebs need a core of steel to survive in their industry, guess she can look after herself. Why do I feel like the father in a K-drama though?? I'm such a loser fan 🤓, I've lost touch with reality, oh well, there go my thoughts of the day, I think I love Gong Hyo-jin!
This is a slice of life drama if you're a 5 year old. Lol.
I meant it's a little simplistic. The characters beyond Sejeong's are as thin as paper, just snapshots saying words to drive the narrative or annoy the audience (for the antagonist parts)
I'm a bit behind. I enjoyed the first two, but really had to battle through #3, it was extremely poor. Insubstantial narrative, some awful acting in parts, a writer that doesn't understand the point of a 3-legged race, and some lazy character depictions - solely to drive narrative points home - I mean, which editor commissions an artist who can't work if his girlfriend leaves the apartment? Surely the writer could think of something better than that?! That's a joke, most of us throw a fist pump at the opportunity to get some work done uninterrupted by the other half. I'm not a fan of web toons, maybe that's why it's getting on my nerves.... the subject matter's usually irrelevant - but it's supposed to be a drama and there's no drama in it!
Looks good. Cast looks good. Hoping for its success, I'll be watching. It's a story that's got enormous potential, I hope they pitch it just right and make the most of it.
A heartwarming drama but I can’t stand to watch junpyo and anna dance and rap scenes. It’s too cringy for…
Kids discover themselves, it's rare a star comes out of the womb ready made - I don't understand what's cool and what isn't these days, but I really enjoyed watching their tentative overtures into their interests and passions. For me, the show's about regular people and whilst keeping it right up there in the drama-entertainment category, it managed to touch on issues faced by kids and parents without going too deeply into the ugly side - so it was relatable and entertaining at the same time. Bravo to all involved.
I think we have to take films for what they are. This is an extremely thrilling action epic and I was transfixed for the journey.
Yes, it's influenced heavily by RPG games, that's it's artistic centre, it goes through a series of levels. It also derives from greats like Altered Carbon (1). There's deliberately no depth to the characters or the narrative, it speaks with physicality... and the action is utterly breathtaking and graphically wondrous, out of this world.
It takes a while to settle into its style. The only jarring moment for me was somewhere near the start, which, although impressive... our man would need to move at super human speed to get through the first 'level'.
No?
