I think she acts very similarly to the younger actress who plays her character; I thought even the younger actress (while adorable, like Eun Bin) has some unique mannerisms. Also, I think her unique island accent might also enhance the already quirky way she carries herself. I've seen several people say what you mention about her acting, and while I haven't seen more than a few clips of Extraordinary Attorney Woo, I can sort of see what they're saying. The only other drama I really remember he in vividly was "Do You Like Brahms?" and her character is the polar opposite of this one, and while Hot Stove League was somewhere in between, that character was quite different, too; definitely more subdued than in this drama. I for one think she's lovely and I like her character! She's not goofy, a klutz, scatter-brained, or a pushover like a lot of other dramas showcase when they try to write a "cute" or "lovable" FL (one of my least favorite leads was the FL in Suspicious Partner; have no idea why so many people rave about it.). Eun Bin's character in this is intelligent, perceptive, kind, fiery, optimistic, tenacious, compassionate and deeply empathetic. Add a dose of quirkiness, and you've got Mok Ha. I think she's refreshing!

I have a feeling it will extend further since he will probably bring about some crisis. Maybe Mok Ha will have to protect Bo Geol as he did for her and it might be intertwined with her "diva" storyline, too, somehow. I'm really curious to see how the stories thread together!

I would love that! Many of us have been dying to see what he really felt and thought upon finding Mok Ha again since his distant attitude is clearly a facade. We want "his" version of the story now!

And for future reference, they're usually the first male actor listed if you scroll from left to right in the cast list, fyi. :)

Also, they have to avoid him without involving the police (meaning they can't get help from the police or protect themselves from him) since they committed identity fraud so he couldn't find them. Involving the police would mean they'd probably have to face legal consequences for faking their identities, too.

Such a cute part! And the second time he kind of risked exposing his secret... 😅

Woo Hak also gives Mok Ha the original audition video flash drive Ki Ho was going to give her in Episode 6. The only person he could have received that from was Ki Ho, and he had just talked to Bo Geol about their past and Bo Geol explained everything (which reveals Bo Geol is Ki Ho). I'm just a tad bit bummed that the Woo Hak didn't make a grumpy and confused fuss that the "cool and awesome" Ki Ho that he was hoping was himself ended up being his baby bro 😅

I'm glad you did; there were some great things about it and it ended happily, too!

Yeah, that's how I got through it, though it still bothered me, haha. I also just didn't get into the story, for some reason. This was one of those well-rated dramas that I just didn't agree with the ratings. Oh well! Most of the ratings on here are pretty good indicators of a drama's quality (I prefer MDL to IMDB or AsianWiki, for instance) but there are always exceptions based on people's preferences. :)

Hmmm, yes. They operate similarly to Hallmark movies in that they are predictable because they have a formula. But I could see how you might get tired; they have to give a new variation on the theme to keep you coming back, for sure. 😏

I think that's the consensus; the ending took a dive. If only it had been 12 episodes!

Park Hyung Shik steals the show in Hwarang, too. He was a new actor paired as a frenemy lead with Park Seo Joon who was the young but still veteran actor in that drama. As much as I love Park Seo Joon, Hyung Sik was hands down the best in that one. He's a great actor!

A few Kdramas:
-My Lovely Boxer
-My Perfect Stranger
Twinkling Watermelon (haven't seen it but the reviews are almost all gush, gush, gush, along with Moving)
-Castaway Diva (still airing but very enjoyable so far)
-Unlock My Boss and My Lovely Liar are not amazing but still decent and enjoyable

A couple Cdramas:
-Hidden Love
-When I Fly Towards You

This has received an interesting following, huh? I found it so odd they gave the villain the sob story background. Episodes 7 and 8 were better than all the previous, but I still skipped most of them... 😳 Maybe I enjoyed them more because I skipped a lot of them... it's just that SWDBG is such a hard act to follow! Like those wildly famous Pixar or Disney movies that they try to write sequels for. They are never as good, even if they're still decent.

I know, haha, I didn't recognize him at first in the drama either until a few of his mannerisms and facial expressions reminded me of the kid in Vagabond (he crushed it in that drama; I also thought he was doing too well in this one to be a newbie), and then I got all excited. But then I thought there was no way, since he seemed too old to be the same kid. How time flies!

I found him in the cast list? I think he's just listed with the support roles.

The way he always mucks things up when he tries to be responsible is pretty cute and endearing, though (and sometimes he IS responsible, though without a doubt he ALWAYS means well).

Haha, they're probably thinking, "Maybe this will assuage their outrage over the abysmal airing schedule?" 😂

Um, why couldn't Yul go to sleep and set an alarm to wake him up a little before 3am? 😶

Hey, at least they're doing the "Previously on..." recaps at the beginning of the new episodes! 🤣
