This drama is your typical action revenge illogical kdrama. The show went down pretty fast after 1st 15 minutes of 1st episode. Concept and theme is good but execution is typical kdrama copy-paste. writers of korea surely take audience for granted. Writing lacks consistency Hero is being made fool of so that heroine could shine - In other dramas heroines receive this kind of treatment. Then we have all convenient relationships, events and coincidences.
This show will go down from here which mostly happens with style of dramas.
Yesterday as i predicted it has become full on soap opera - a stale soup. All ingredients were there from the start. Anyone could see the truth if they wanted to. Caricatures and copy-paste won't take you far. ofcourse it can take care of your immediate day to day needs and bills but as writer you won't gain any respect whatsoever. Trying to be oversmart and being nothing more than hack is what this garbage is. plot tools after plot tools and no efforts put where it matters lefts you with painted face. Heck, this drivel hardly even scratches any good point of human interactions, relationships and their dynamics. dialogues and 1 liners can't do much in the modern world of memes. Where can direction take you if there is no material at hand? As said at the start of the show this show has less material than even a common cringe tiktok skit.
Its not only this writer's problem - almost all kdrama romance writers have just this copy-paste to run. Its like they want all the benefits but have o desire to do the job and easily take audience for granted.
You really seem to feel hurt by this Drama yet you keep watching it and come up here to spill your annoyance every…
ohh someone other gonna decide what someone can watch or not. Delusional beings surely love to show bigotry whenever things are not what they fantasise for.
Writer has literally nothing on hand since 2nd week - now hero too. hahaha. Writer deserves some applause for conning everyone. Its like a scam unfolding each and every week with new layers. total hack job. Piece of art it is if if delusions carry you far. Heck, those c grade korean adult movies have more innovative storylines and characters and her we are completing the circle of all nonsense that is hallmark of korean dramas. no long walls of rants and numerous buzzwords can increase quality of something who was low quality to begin with. Little more effort and it will be your proper soap opera.
If all you got from Imada Mio's character, Hinata Tachibana that she's "just a cute girl" then I don't know what…
you are conflating character with an actor. The typical female character might suit anyone out there and agencies usually do this stuff to create air for their own so called talent.
Its 1 time worth time pass. That's it. Its fun while it airs and is on your screen as soon as you complete the move you don't think about it. Story start and theme is good - concept is good but i don't think it can translate so well into span of 2 hours. Its more like milking the cow.
Guys have done well but Imada Mio is completely waste here - she has nothing to do other than being a cute girl. It is smart choice to get into a big movie and gain people's attention but i don't think she gains any traction as an actor here.
Overall, its an easy watch movie but it surely could have been a lot better and i think this is just the initial part of the manga story.
Writer creating another bottom this week. Whatever little story and lot it had, thin to begin with have almost evaporated by now. fillers and more nonsensical cliches and convoluted scenarios and with many failed plot tools we have come to the same place where it all began. Writer's effort is visible in packaging but when product is of low quality then no shinny makeup gonna cover the pimples. I always consider writer+director a combo and if director has done good job with choosing scenery as well as editing then writer's point is already taken in. Maybe writer took the story as challenge and wanted to show writing skills by selling a stale story of caricatures. References reminds of you many gag manga's as well as light novels. Technical writing where everything sits well but has not much depth and substance. Dialogues can be 1 liners of modern world and memes but writer have kept them simple which is actually a +ve point. The drama still is of low quality below average and actors+directors efforts are wasted. Associating few buzzwords won't raise the bar of the drama. Someone can deluded by those buzzwords but material at hand not lies. The side side character female director getting more screentime actually is something that would come of as better for the story.
What a suitable title for the drama - 1st week is and you get to say the show s bad, very bad and then you get to say crazy show really is crazy. But there;s that charm, little bit of it, which makes you wait for next 2 weeks episodes. 3rd episode has tone down the bad and kept the crazy and i think with the entry of new female character show has become better and now we cna wait for more crazy and expect less bad. Heroine of the show is the typical one and her actions and scenes where she's in make her look a bit too cliche. I was expecting far more from heroine. Show still is below average and lacks anything to make it stand. Direction could have been better and covered the loose writing but well, this show is for fun so i'm in for more and more crazy while ignoring all the -ve aspects no efforts writing. I thought this role suit Lee Dong Wook but 1st week he really looked pretty out of it he kind of started to set into the role as a bad act. Ha Joon is really enjoying this role. I'm gonna keep watching it till new dramas not start.
"delusional" huh? can't we be just normal individuals who are able to deeply resonate with the story and the characters?…
you can assume whatever about yourself - And u can indulge in whataboutery whatever way you want. Rather than making me the subject matter better would be learn how to be progressive and concentrate on the show - No one is here to decide what someone watches or likes - what doesn't revolve around toxic fandoms who are mostly delusional.
You know I wrote a big thing but then deleted it because I came to the conclusion you just want people to argue…
I saw your comment. Unlike delusional beings atleast you were on subject matter. subverted tropes is the new age meme to proclaim something is of quality. I don't see any nuance in vulgar copy-paste display of same story and plot which is even more cringe than your typical tiktok skits. Well, everyone have different set framework to evaluate things and i am doing exactly that. Someone like or dislike, agree or disagree isn't my concern. Its their feelings and they have the freedom to have them. As simple as that. I always hope fandom becomes progressive enough to digest divergent views and not act like typical karens.
As expected writer keeps the low quality standard set in 1st week itself. A Korean main character is always made of muh childhood, my family issues blah blah blah. Its just too long of excuses and terrible cliches thrown all together. You also have to give it to writer for being smart enough to deceive so many and make a fool out of them. throw the right bone and enjoy the outcomes. Many fall for it and some not. Look at those last 5 minutes of every episode. Writer knows how to bait. In these kinds of dramas you always have explanations that might have no real practical value but does assuage the delusional fans. Something that might be defensible without much logic and sense. Then comes into meme words into play where a fan take recourse in. All that for a fictional drama where writing is almost non existent and whatever it is and it is pretty inconsistent. Writer just woke up one day saw -ve bank balance and went overdrive on copy-paste with this abomination of drama. Characters and so called actor aren't at fault - all the trouble lies with and with writer alone. Side side characters of hero's parents initial director + Ji-woong's female partner have more to give to the show than your main caricatures. As for Kim Sung - he's just a total typecast now. Acting i talk least about because i usually don't even consider copy-paste style part of acting - So far everything in the show is below average.
