I watched Extreme Job yesterday and I'm currently on episode 2 of Twelve. After having seen more fight scenes, I'm sorry, but when a comedy like Extreme Job has better fighting sequences compared to a drama that relies on action and has so many big names attached to it, something went extremely wrong with the directors and choreographers
HI, I liked your review a lot. Obviously, if you read my review I was ok, sort of, with the shallowness of Aema.…
Thank you so much for your comment. Your reviews was very insightful too! And yes, I totally agree with you, male directors will never be able to truly capture women's pain anf feelings. I'm looking forward to see more works by female directors.
Mina is really pitiful. A 20-year-old kid came to learn, but ended up like this because she met the wrong people...
Omg, that scene made me feel so uncomfortable, I really wanted to scream just from thinking how many young girls like her end up like that for the sake of fame
I watched episode 1 and am I the only who found the fighting scenes kinda sloppy? There were some weird angles and pauses in-between, it felt like an amateur's work. I don't know if this is intended in order to show how easy it is for the Angels to fight the thugs but nevertheless, the cinematography could be much better. I hope it will improve, especially if the drama will rely on action.
I am very conflicted about my final rating. On the one hand, I overall found the story intriguing and I respect that the writers wanted to tackle important issues regarding women's treatment in the film industry. The acting was also very good and the production design was beautiful and rich.
On the other hand, I think that the drama addressed the topics it wanted to tackle in a kinda shallow and safe way. I think that the writers should have gone more in-depth in order to properly explore the exploitation of women by male producers and what happens behind-the-scenes. I also wish we had gotten to see more of Heeran and Juae's friendship, their bond was close, no doubt for that, but the plot could have centered more around them.
All in all, I think that it was a decent series. Do not let the rating fool you, give it a try if you want. All actors did a phenomenal job, especially Lee Ha Nee who commanded the screen.
So far I'm torned between an 8-8.5 rating. Might be an 9 but the ending must be really strong. The pacing is kinda inconsistent and there are times when I feel kinda bored but overall the story is interesting and tackles serious topics. Both main leads are very charismatic, especially Lee Ha Nee, I cannot take my eyes off the screen when she appears.
The scene on Episode 4 where Heeran points out how ridiculous the script is had me roling on the floor, it really felt like I was watching a cringe telenovela. I love it when the story changes between the actual story and the story of Aema.
what happened to Gwan Seok family were they got killed or just scaring them and in the end Gwan Seok survived
I have the same question. I guess that they either scared them of or kidnapped them? I don't think they are dead. As for Gwan Seok, that might be his twin brother, Heedong's father.
Is this ACTUALLY worth it? I have a short attention span. Please give me an unbiased opinion! <33
Hmmm, I would say that it's worth it but since you have a short attention span, take it easy if you decide to watch it. Do not try to binge watch it, instead do it at your own pace.
