Quite a mixed bag, some great scenes with great choreography... others borderline ridiculous. Not bad though, the lead actress wasn't really athletic enough to portray the heroine - they should at least have cut her running scenes, a 5 year old kid could catch up with her.

Thoroughly enjoyable, couldn't stop watching once started. From its blockbuster first episode to the end, I'd go as far as to say it's a must-see for any k-drama fan for many reasons.

Edit. Forgot to mention, the woke subtitles on Kocowa were annoying. The kid is clearly saying "dad in heaven" on multiple occasions, but the subtitlers prefer to lie about what she said. Nothing worse than liars 🤮.

Boring. What do you mean 'no more'? Name a k-drama with such a character in earnest. If you watch K-dramas, no female leads are like that. Unless you want female leads that behave like men?

Wrong place to bring that up again. She wouldn't have been nominated either way, rest assured.

I hear you. Maybe it's self-justification on my part because I have a problem with Disney.

Last time we had a title like that it was Sh*tting Stars. If was a bit sh*t too... I'm a fan of Pyo Ye-jin, she was great as the firefighter/bodyguard in her last drama, hope this one's good!

P.s. I hope they drop the low-level title.

Yay

You'll have to pay money to Disney then. Moving isn't that good, just American stuff improved in Korea. I only watched half of it, disclaimer.

Name your 100 better horror movies. And don't put "ass" after your trashy adjectives.

Disney paid a lot to make that drama. They have to win stuff for their cash... ahem, I mean efforts.

Don't worry, QoT as a drama and Kim Ji-won's role in it didn't provide the type of scope that gets noticed by judges - even though she was excellent. The judges had probably already picked their favourite FLs by the time QoT was aired, so they'd just watch a few highlights and decide if they saw anything that would change their minds.

He never just turns up and reads his lines. He's magnetic. Somehow he got cast in the typical rom-com Beautiful Gong Shim, where they needed an experienced actor to steady the ship with rookie Bang Minah... between the pair of them and an open minded director, they turned a run of the mill story into something quite extraordinary - one of the most charismatic and original male leads I've seen to date, totally unexpected - and such fun. It belatedly catapulted him into ML stardom.

I loved Kim Go-eun in Exhuma. Lee Do-hyun too. Worthy winners, intense auras.

Why the vitriol? Agree with Wookie.

Alas, this page doesn't display too well on my mobile phone 🤳
Looks like a lot of effort went into it though, so thanks to the writer, will look on the computer.

It was more than that, $10m was just the penalty fees 😨
Don't let the rage-baiting get to you and enjoy the thrills 😉

To the first question... yes, it's their story. Maybe they'll get the wrong idea about each other and things will cool for a while though. We'll all probably get the wrong idea and shout at the TV! 🤬

2nd point, after watching this drama I sympathise a lot more with HSH than I used to. My bad.

I love it. So many things going on. The showbiz mum is fascinating, I feel like I'm watching the story of Han So-hee and probably many others who've been there. Stop!! That was just a glib and foolish comment, please don't take it seriously HSH fans.

It might be his (real) mother's father-in-law... or maybe there's an older brother of Jin-taek who's out of the picture now, deceased, awol, whatever - could he have been the handsome boyfriend in the US?... I don't know why but all this talk about heirs to the business has made me think that Pil-seung could become an heir.

If we see her as a 12 year old, it makes the whole thing thought provoking. The parents setting her up with a sexual partner, is the age of consent a physical or mental state? At her age she'd get the tingles from watching boy bands and so on, but that's about it. It's another factor that makes this drama unique and fascinating.
