This may sound trivial. I was not connecting at all on episode 1 until the end came and Yoari MAGICAL voice started playing Can't Be. I'm a sucker for her songs. If she is part of the OST, it deserves a chance.
Did CJH got a tanning session? I knew he could kiss passionately but this was 3 degrees extra. I can't get out of my mind the idea that he is so goofy in real life, driving his mom crazy with zillion kitchen gadtets.
Ok, first it looked like a "lost in translation" drama but when the delulu kicked in it was a whole new ship sailing. DON'T LET kids grow up with traumas. It was quite painful that development. The need of another interpreter to understand the same language is brilliant. It happens too often, when we don't know or can't express correctly feelings, likes, frustrations, etc. By episode 10 I thought that was it. And then 11 and 12 felt like extra, but then it made sense. It's one of those few times that all stories are closed, one by one. But DA RN netflix and their stupid idea of dumping all episodes together.
For the first time in 10 years watching k.dramas, I want a second part, that one where they do get their building taller than Oh partners. The main pro bono group was such a blast to follow, and even the evil ones had such deep impact that it came out too good.
Finish. I don't think I'll be watching the original K-drama. This one was good by itself. The ending was nice though those long years of waiting always blow my mind.
I think this was based over a decade ago. china was much more unsafe and corrupt during the early 2000s. imo long…
I actually watch Xu Kai's dramas. But other than that I don't dive much into c-dramas. I'm trying one more with Dilraba, the Love on the Turquoise Land. It's a bit hard to get hooked so far with the first episodes. Seems it get's better a bit later.
I came for Kento, but Koshiba Fuka stole my attention. I've seen here in more recent works, but in this one she totally transformed into a sloppy messy Ai, totally fascinating.
Antarctica and Alaska are probably the only 2 places that are cold that I would like to visit. This show was a nice tiny approach of how rough conditions are there and how you can thrive by uniting with the other crews. In a melting world after glacial era, the marketing of "humans being the bad ones", I'm glad that that part of the world is just doing what poles do after glacial eras. MELT.
Our fave sad development aside, this was terrible as full of forced clichés.
