I feel like there's gotta be more because they mentioned his mom somehow being involved as well. Yi Jae almost…
It's also unclear how much he knows about what happened to her and her family? If he had no idea, but she didn't know that, she might feel super betrayed that he was completely MIA during all of that? It seems like a stretch that he wouldn't know anything, though (and it's obvious he at least feels bad for SOMETHING that happened, though it does seem like we don't have all the details yet), but it's a Kdrama, so if they don't want him to have known anything that happened to her, they'll find a way to explain his ignorance without making him an utter jerk. I mean, he wouldn't be putting up with how rude she's being towards him if he didn't feel terrible about something in their past...
Just finished it 9/10. love the action scenes and jin Ji koo but why was Choi ga yun so touchy with that pshyco…
Teachers there seem way more involved than they are in the U.S., for instance (that other episode with the mom contacting the teacher is another good example). All that behavior would be a liability in the U.S., and misconstrued, but it seems fairly common in SK (and often a way they show a "good" teacher).
Have you noticed that when high school kids get in trouble in Kdramas off-campus (or caught by the police doing something), they don't call the parents, they call the homeroom teacher? Homeroom teachers will also go to the hospital with students. (This is all based on Kdramaland, so I have no idea if it's really done in real life).
She did seem naive, and got a little too personal with the student, I don't disagree, but I do think that behavior is more normal in SK as far as Kdrama teacher behavior.
I rate high this episode one, it's excellent, very effective screenplay. But obviously, at end of episode, story…
It's not really a proper procedural. By Episode 6 the cases start to intertwine more (and callback to earlier cases as well). It still felt cohesive to me.
Have you seen Once Again. He is the ML there. It's a family drama so the cast is big but I feel like that was…
I haven't! But I noticed that he was an ML in that. It's one of the daily family dramas, right? I've only done one of those (if Reply 1988 doesn't count), and it took me months to finish (My Father Is Strange). 😅
The first episodes were really fun, and well done, but that doesn't mean much for a Kdrama these days. Most have strong beginnings. The real question is, will it stick the landing past the first few episodes? 🤔🧐
Lee Sang Yeob isn't another jerk villain in this, is he?
He's such a great actor; I've only seen him in something as an ML once, and it didn't allow for his range and the romance was just okay (as far as the script).
Okay 4 episodes yesterday and 8 today so all caught up but like i need more. At least we get 2 episodes a day…
He's an ML we've seen before, but he's doing a nice variation on the "green flag general who's very anachronistically respectful to women but don't cross him on the battlefield or attempt to assassinate him" ML theme. Only 5 episodes in and he's growing on me!
who knows? since he asked his Master (FL 's father) how to be a good ruler now (he was aware he has no power and…
I want it to be like in A Splendid Match where the ML and 2ML actually worked together when the 2ML knew he was out of the running with the FL. Loved the 2ML in that one. He was so refreshing! It was my favorite little unexpected surprise in that drama.
I am beginning Episode 4, but I can't quite figure out what is happening with Mao becoming Regent. Why does that mean Xie Jiayu must marry Xiao Wuyi?
It seems like Mao decided to help the Emperor because he's trying to protect Wuyi (the Emperor and The Grand Tutor kind of pulled his arm), but Wuyi was still trying to get him to just do what he wanted (run off with Jiayu), but Mao refused because he knows the fallout if Wuyi takes over will be catastrophic (though it might have been better long term because the Emperor seems selfish?). Am I getting any of that right?
Maybe it becomes clearer if I keeo watching, but I'd still love it if someone could explain to me what's happening. 😁😅
Plot feels somewhat reminiscent of Flower Of Evil, and even directed by the same director. For the director to go from that to My Holo Love to Lovely Runner--he has quite the range! 😅
I saw a few episodes on YouTube, you can try watching it there. IQIYI channel on YouTube. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJmKWYheiYx0&si=kaJxJMUuHTTlvYD1The…

It seems to be the ML's method of protecting women: marry them, then let them do as they please. 😅
