i feel like every character is so good except for the main couple. like they got nothing going on for them, they're…
I feel the same. I am still waiting for good reasons about their sudden romance... Their moves seem really random too lol The king caught one of the traitor just because he wanted suddently to eat at a restaurant. They are just dating all the time when Yi rim is well prepared. I really feel like Shin Jae and Luna are the real "mastermind", I have the feeling they are the saviors like there were another timeline before this timeline where Yi Rim has succeed to become king during the event at the start of episode 1 and Luna-Shin Jae twisted the event in order to make Yi Gon the king...
Honestly, this season was a massive disappointment. I gave it a shot because I was hoping the story would be as…
The characters I am really missing are Dong Goo and Sol... I really feel like they tried to remplace Dong Goo by Wook Shik but it is not working for me. Dong Goo is one of my favorite character in waikiki 1 and he had an interesting personality :
He was like a ticky bomb, always blowing his anger out at the climax of the funny situations but he had also a soft side at the same time. To me he was the leader, he had authority over the group and was really scary + had obsessive behaviors sometimes but in a funny way. All the sides of his character was well done and gave him depth.
Sol's presence was a great advantage for waikiki 1 especially to see her reactions and she gave the characters a way for them to be more adult.
I think the characters were more distinguishable in the past season : when I think about Dong Goo : anger, Joon Ki: funny, Doo shik : Naive, Yoon Ah : Kindness,Seo jin : chewbacca and Soo Ah : pretentious but smart
Somehow the characters of waikiki 1 seemed deeper than waikiki 2.I think in waikiki 1 they were adults with childish behaviors when in waikiki 2 they seem like children trying to behave like adults...
I think the season 2 has a big lack of balance/timing. They tried non-stop to make you laught without spacing it.
edit : And yes I really feel like the writer for the S2 was expecting the same actors because the characters seem like bland copies of the old characters : Jung eun =dumpling=manly=chewbacca, Ki Bong = naive= idiot= Doo Shik, Woo Shik = sometimes blow out his anger = Dong Goo, Too Ri reminded me a bit of Soo Ah at first.
And a lot of situations were similar too : Jung Eun is in love with Joon Ki first but he didn't see her as a woman (same was between Seo Jin and Joon Ki or when Woo Shik confessed first to Soo Yeon but she rejected him because of personal reasons (Dong goo and Yoon Ah were the same ) or when Ki bong dates Soo Yeon but they hide it to Woo shik because he is her brother (Joon Ki and Seo Jin), When Ki bong broke Jun Ki's car and had nightmares about it (when Jun Ki broke Dong Goo's camera), ....
What if in the "original Timeline" Yi Gon was killed by Yi Rim and Yi rim succeeded his coup détat + he gained…
I have the feeling there are two Luna. The one from the first episode who the king was running after and the one who get release from prison. The Luna from episode 1 was from the future and the Luna from episode 7-8 is the actual Luna.
When said " I am curious too" I feel like she wasn't talking about Tae eul but about the other Luna because I think the Luna from the future make her goes in jail intentionaly to make a move and lead the king to the portal
And when the kid with the book saw her, he said " You already get release...Your style changed" that seemed strange
Lee Min Ho is a bit taller and the hands are not the same. I tried to compare the hands because I really wanted…
So I will post here my new theories because I want to share it and talk about it ! (I hope I am not annoying you haha)
1. What if in the "original Timeline" (I am talking about a timeline we didn't see as viewer but still in Corea world so it is not a third world I am talking about) Yi Gon was killed by Yi Rim and Yi rim succeeded his coup d'état and gained the full flute. Then he was like a mean god ruling over people perhaps even over the two worlds. Shin Jae and Luna's lifes were hell (Shin Jae wasn't swapped because there was no need for that due to the sucess of Yi Rim).
They have enough of their king so they decided to kill him; they were leader of the resistance. They stole the flute and travel between dimensions, they even encounters Tae Eul who helped them.
Then they discovered the time travel power and so they decided to stop Yi Rim before he became a king. They travel back in time and tried to kill him but fail. However they managed to save the prince and Yi Gon became the king instead of his uncle.
Frankly I know there is zero chance it is the case but I find this idea really interesting !
2. What if there are two Luna ?
We know in the last episode that Luna was in jail but since when ? Was she in jail when in episode 1 Yi Gon was running after her ? If that is the case I think there is the Luna from this timeline and the Luna who saved the king and has lead Yi gon to the portal.
When Luna was free she said " Let me know if you find her, I am curious too" I think she was not referring to Tae eul... And when Yi rim found out who was on the ID badge he said " Things have been entangled strangely, it is not my doing..." so I think someone is a step ahead from him.
3. If there are not two Luna she still knows about the Korea's world
The way she speak to the kid shows she knows more than she should
I have a crazy theory and frankly I don't think that is the case but I find this theory interesting :
What if in the "original Timeline" Yi Gon was killed by Yi Rim and Yi rim succeeded his coup détat + he gained the flute and so he was like a mean god ruling over people. Shin Jae and Luna were under his rules (Shin Jae wasn't swapped because there was no need for that due to the sucess of Yi Rim).
They have enough of their king so they decided to kill him; they were leader of the resistance. They stole the flute and travel between dimensions, they even encounters Tae Eul who helped them.
Then they discovered the time travel power and so they decided to stop Yi Rim before he became a king. They travel back in time and tried to kill him but fail. However they managed to save the prince. I think the ID card was not in their plan, the prince caught it and so he was brings to his soul mate...
All this time I thought the twins were Eun Sub kids xdd
Somehow I would have preferred they were his kids and Nari was his wife just to see Yeong's reaction :') And because Eun Sub has really the cool daddy's vibes
So turns out Sin Jae is from Corea. Ah some people had predicted it. Young pretending to be Eun sob was hilarious.…
Yes to me Yi Gon and Yeong relationship is more like a chief and his employee realationship than a bromance relationship... Yi Gon is always repeating Yeong about how he is under his orders and must obeys like a little robot... I think I will really appreciate all the moments Yeong will spend with the characters from Korea, I hope he will be more honest with his feeling like eun Sub is and stop to be the little robot of the king and think about himself...
Wait what ? xD Shin Jae is not related by blood with the royal family we even saw a picture of his father and…
Don't worry I had the same impression too ! Well a picture with him and his mother (and even if he isn't the shin Jae of Korea his parents must have the same faces) was showed but the drama has a lot of secrets so perhaps it is the case ? I think his crave of sweet is from his father ^^
Frankly I must apologize because even if the cast change ( except for Lee Yi Kyung) waikiki 2 is really good ! I won't say as good of course because the first season was more special to me than the second but there are a lot of funny situations too !
What are a bit so-so is the fact the characters seem sometimes like bland copies of the previous characters... For example Jung Eun is manly like Seo Jin was and Joon Ki doesn't considered her at first like a woman. Episode 11 really reminds me when Seo Jin tried to make him realized she is a woman... Or Woo Shik is short-tempered at first like Dong Goo was and Ki Bong is really naive as Doo Shik was. I have the feeling writer-nim wanted the same actors because some moments really seem to be about the old-characters...
And they tend to make the characters more dumber than the first season, the first episode was really hard to watch because their laughter seemed forced + I wanted a bit of explanation about why the others characters leave even if I know it is because of problem in real life but they should at least explain it like I don't know they leave because of their work or something...
So turns out Sin Jae is from Corea. Ah some people had predicted it. Young pretending to be Eun sob was hilarious.…
Me too I think that is one of the rare drama where I am more concerned by side characters than the two main characters :/ In the last episodes I am starting to like Tae Eul's character but with Yi Gon it is really hard because when I start to find him actually okay as a character I will then just hear "King blablabla, Me blablabla, cheesy lines, horse horse, Behead someone lol " Sometimes I just want Yi Rim to show up and punch him xD
I am more concern about the yo-yo kid than him ? Like everyone esle seem much more interesting to me and I think it is because they aren't self-centered
I just don't hope that Lee Gon abdicates (to live in the ROK with Tae-Eul) and Shin-Jae becomes the King. Because…
Wait what ? xD Shin Jae is not related by blood with the royal family we even saw a picture of his father and can you edit your comment as a spoiler please ?
Couldn’t it because because captain Jo’s parents are divorced? Eun Sub’s siblings are still kids so their…
I don't think that is odd because a parralel world is like same question but differents answers, the question was : Are Yi Gon/Eun sub's parents going to stay together ? In a world it was no, they divorced and in this world it was yes so there have others kids. I read something about parallel universes like there are create when a choice come so it is infinite... Think about it like a chest number there are a lot of possibilities. That is why often the doppelganger can be totally different because they didn't lives the exact same life but in a way all your doppelganger are a part of yourself but at the same time there are not really you
Exactly, I also came here to write these. This episode was better than all previous ones and everything was interesting…
Exactly They really seem like high school students but without the interesting shy side at first so it is even stranger lol Their love lack of maturity and passion, there are not " sparks" somehow; it feels empty/ bland... I really want to like it but I just can't.
I think there are two types of interesting couples in stories : 1. couples who complete each other with opposites personalities (we saw alot of them in drama land with the hate/love relationship ) and 2.couple with same personalities but mutually evolve often because they share the same pains in life (for example if you know Sun Jae and Jae Yi in Tunnel )
Here I can't really put them in a categorie... I think a romance between Shin Jae and Luna would be much more interesting ( those two would be in the second case)
Exactly, I also came here to write these. This episode was better than all previous ones and everything was interesting…
One of the reason why their love is rushed is perhaps because their love will end bad I think (One of them will be killed for example) but even if that is the case I don't understand the rush of it because it seem really bitter to watch frankly, it is even a pain in the ass because every others scenes besides romance are so much interesting !
Lee Min Ho is a bit taller and the hands are not the same. I tried to compare the hands because I really wanted…
Because it didn't happened yet for them ? Shin Jae and Luna we are seeing right now are the version before the event (like in" go back to the future") I am not really sure for Luna because she seems to know something about parallel worlds... But if they can travel in time at some point they can go to the past, save Yi gon and then go back to their own time ? Frankly I have a lot of ideas about it haha Time travelling can be really twisted ! ^^
Everyone and their mother know that the person in episode one that saved the little Prince is Lee Min Ho..his…
Lee Min Ho is a bit taller and the hands are not the same. I tried to compare the hands because I really wanted to know and Shin Jae's hands seem to be the same (the hands are thinner and have a lot of veins ). + The latest episodes really give me the feeling Shin Jae and Luna will be the key of all of this... I think Luna was the one destroying the roof of glass to make diversion and Shin Jae was the gun firer.
Yi Gon isn't really good with guns, Tae Eul is a bit but Shin Jae is really strong with a gun (In episode 7 all his bullets got in the center of the target and it was a speed challenge, I think Tae Eul is not so good when she must shoot quickly)
