True! I wish I was as wise as those kids when I was that age, their chat over the ttekbokki was awesome! Maybe if I'd watched K-dramas I'd have learnt to be smart like they were.

He's great, so kind and wise - I like them all though. He's in Delicious Proposal from 25 years ago, he looks fantastic, nice to see he's still sprightly!

Su Ji & Woo Ri is a daily drama... the weekend drama is a step up from that, then the 16 part dramas are supposedly the most expensive per episode.

A cracking start, looking forward to the weekends!

Any comments like "Korea this", "Koreans that"... are written by supremacists. It's the thinking way of a supremacist and the talking way of a supremacist - a narrow view that stems from ignorance. Congratulations, and fk off.

Obnoxious much? Korea gave you these actors, it can take them away again. Who do you think you are? It's nothing to do with you. You have no say in the matter. Learn your place.

He did - bearing in mind that the script was a turd, narrative was a turd, stage direction was a turd and character was a turd. Both he and Im Soo-hyang did exceptionally well, but the ship sank like a stone despite their efforts.

Thanks LA, this looks very appealing, the whole cast is pleasing - for me Yoon Se-ah is the one I'll tune in to watch, she's versatile. The synopsis also looks good, the truth beneath, secrets and double lives - hopefully if won't be too stressful!!

Can't wait, will be good to get this out of the way and move on. Might even be a good film.

I like her, Woori the Virgin was such fun. I feel a little sad when she gets criticised because she's so bright and cheery that it feels unkind, like kicking a cute cat!

It was a turd. One of the worst I've seen. He was in no position to bail, so he buckled down and honoured his contract - no actor could have saved it... but saying that, actors with healthier star power wouldn't have accepted in the first place, I'm pretty sure the red flags were all over it. This KBS weekender could be just what he's looking for.

I'm a fan of his, even though it's a marathon I'll give it a try. The synopsis "the conflict and affection between family members in our modern society" is standard for the KBS weekend drama. But every so often they produce a real gem.

Let's see, I heard about this a while ago and thought it sounded tired and awkward - but quite often when I expect nothing a fantastic drama shows up. Like you say, she's great, I've started to feel like watching it.

Looks really funny, feels like a surprise hit is in the making.

That's a paradox right there, Al. You read the article and comments and even replied to one. Bet you can't explain why without making it your business.

Dearest LA, can I just say that drama ratings for Saturday are compared to the previous Saturday and Sunday to the previous Sunday. That's how to measure the trend. You can't compare Saturday to the previous Sunday, because Sunday gathers a larger live audience.
There's a rise, not a drop.

That's so funny. Why did they even bother to respond to the rumour? All publicity is good publicity, whatever he's getting he's worth every Won. And So is Ji-won... worth every Won 😆. They're both absolutely incredible, that scene at the start of e5 or 6 where she forced herself to explain why she got lost, a little humiliated to reveal her weakness, top quality. Is he Park Ji-eun's man? Quite a history, I'm always curious how such prominent friendships arise - he's definitely in her wavelength in understanding his character, as he was in the previous two works. Every actor would kill (or start rumours) to be in his shoes? But no, seriously, it looks like a story used as a pretext to humbly bring up the real story about under-charging.

Great, nice selection for the leads, go for it Han-na + kyung-pyo, this has loads of potential!

Finally got round to watching and decided to drop. The ML and FL aren't ML and FL material, for me. I need at least one to be imposing. Writing was good. Whoever was in charge of casting must have had some issues - why did Choi Soo-young's brother bear all the same physical characteristics as the ML?

I don't think I've seen Kim Sang-ho playing a cop before 🤭 Hwaiting. Looks like jtbc going back to its forte, classy drama. Good cast, story seems plain from the synopsis but will probably be more interesting than it sounds. I haven't watched the BBC version, naturally.
