Yeah, the Squid Games thing is silly.

I am not liking episode 5 for sure. 🫤

On Episode 5 and I hope the Squid Games arch is short. It's a little nonsensical.

This is so good! Finally! This year was rough.

Oh, I loved this! Just wholesome, feel-good fun! Binged the entire series. My favourite of the year by a long shot.

A strong finish!

I enjoyed your perspective!

I hope so but 9 episodes does not seem enough to tell that story.

He just needs to pick better scripts. Which I think is becoming difficult for everyone. I think Kdramas in general are becoming bad. Streaming platforms are ruining Kdramas.
"Destined with you" was great though.

On episode 3 and can't handle the stress. 😭
Also, how are they going to tell this story well in only 9 episodes???

On episode 1 and the historically accurate filth and tooth decay is... something. 😭

On Episode 11: The mother's tears and spiel about why she abandoned she gave away her hearing impaired daughter was infuriating. That scene with her and the female lead was supposed to redeem her, I think. This entire episode was. Instead, she came of as even worse, to me.

Regarding episode 9: Employments contracts with no base salary are a recipe for exploitation. The fact that Yullim's restructuring includes this clause for partners is a red flag.

Did the 12 episode format ruin this K-drama? All these characters are so light-touch. The fat-suit character's monologue about Yun Soek Hun was meant to fill gaps about his upstanding character. But that background should have been created through the story itself. The monologue was a shortcut.

To be fair, I've enjoyed far more unrealistic shows before. But for some reason, this one really irks me.

Thank you for the respectful and measured engagement! I stand corrected.

Another annoyingly unrealistic thing is the genius and highly competent junior lawyer thing. Since when does a first-year associate with no experience have the privilege of talking back to her senior in the very hierarchical Korean context? And since when would a seasoned lawyer ever defer to a first-year associate as depicted in this show? And the whole "pretending to be her friend's dad's lawyer thing while in high school" where she wins him expensive land was beyond ridiculous.

I'm on episode 4 and I wish the female lead was written more realistically. Even her problems are nonsensical. A perfectionist mother who shipped her hearing-impaired twin sister off to relatives? Give me a break.

Not K-Diddy! 😂

Just dumb! 😂
