Such a fun drama... I'm gonna miss it a lot. I cried so much at the end, there were a lot of times when I thought "just kiss already!" but I didn't want it in that way T^T
Even if EunSeo is not his daughter, he still cheated on her for YEARS. Even with " a lot of development", making…
I have the same feeling. For this type of drama, when the woman is a mother and has a certain age, we never see her in a serious romance after her divorce.
It's sad because Korea need some representation for divorced 50 yo who finds love again. But no, it's a country where women have expiration dates :/
I really want her to end up with Woo Hyuk, mainly because in this type of drama, the woman never gets a romance, they somehow end up with the "alone and happy as a strong independent woman ~~", as if you cannot be that AND happily dating.
I kind of want to see a drama where we see them divorce AND begin seeing another man. In dramaland, when the FML is of a certain age and/or has children, it's like they cannot have another relationship after a divorce. Like women have some kind of expiration date. This is sad :/
And if she ends up with In Ho, it will be the worst. We already have too much representation of relationships where the mother does not divorce, just because of the children or because they're "family" or because the husband gets "better".
Ok, wild take; but I feel like Eun Seo is not really In ho's daughter.And after a lot of development and drama,…
Even if EunSeo is not his daughter, he still cheated on her for YEARS. Even with " a lot of development", making them end up together would be the worst ending ever. Unfortunately, I think she'll end up alone, unfortunately (because I think she is interested in Woo Hyuk, so not going forward would be sad, especially as he seems to really want her happy).
I feel like it's gonna be a "too many cooks spoil the broth" type of drama... I except an Asadora or a Taiga to have this size of a casting, not 5 episodes...
I like the first two episodes! Usually, for those types of drama, everybody becomes crazy and/or bad except the protagonist that keeps everybody together ~~~ But here, it's a mix of every type of people. Even when the main trio is not here, some people go crazy, and some try to keep things together, and they're not "useless" at all.
I really like that main trio, too. They have all different types of personalities but go well together. They don't let their differences go against their teamwork and actually talk about things.
The character of Yuto may be the idealistic cliché, but he really understands that his ideals are difficult, and work hard as hell to keep them all together. + As a firefighter he did see terrible situations, and humans overcoming them together, so I can understand the fact he tries to save everybody, even if it can be seen as too "idealistic".
Sae can also be seen as idealistic, but I just think she's just very sweet. And also work hard to help as much as she can, and assist everywhere. She's not giving lessons, or giving pretty speeches, so it helps her character a lot. Some female characters in this type of story can go very fast, very annoying, so I'm glad they're not going that road. She's nice and a hard worker.
Naoya is easily the most interesting, but that was obviously wanted in the script, he's "grey", and doesn't really trust people, but in the end, he's very nice. I like how he challenges the others all the time, and it works because the other two are too nice to actually get angry at him and think about what he says and talk with him.
Really nice beginning! I hope it'll continue like that, and we'll not go all "they go crazy and all kill each other, rape, and all that".
I thought Takumi's character story would be the last arc, but it doesn't seem so!
Next episode (5), we begin his story arc. I'm surprised by the next episode preview. He seems to have a good relationship with Kazama. Well, it's still Kazama, so he's stone-faced, but he seems different than he is with the other students.
I thought Takumi's character would be the worst of his students, immature and stubborn, which is why he got killed. But here he seems very sweet and actually a good cop.
Hao T^T I was so scared you weren't gonna be in the top 9, how did you pull this reverse card and win the top 1?
I'm so happy, a little afraid of the Korean backlash, but so happy he debuted. Not all my picks made the top 9 (Jeonghyeon, Jay, Hanbin, love you), and it's not full of the kids with the best skills, but I love them all.
I hope they'll practice a lot to prove all of us wrong and do amazing with their own songs. <3
I know it's difficult for many of us to accept and understand some of the results, but I'm following this Korean Youtuber who works behind the scenes in the entertainment sphere (in Korea, Japan & China), and listening to him made a lot of things clear. He followed and reviewed all of the BP episodes, and talk about the controversies. And analyze the top 9 and their synergy. It made me understand a lot about what is popular in Korea right now, the MNET behind the scenes, the editing, the training the boys get in the show, the current state of Kpop trainees, the dance, vocals, raps, etc... Not just on a surface level, and about things that everybody knows, but the real behind the scenes.
(Be careful, though, he is objective and can be cold with his commentary if you're easily annoyed when someone says that your bias isn't a perfect idol, don't watch him + the subtitle are not perfect, but very understandable)

I admire and pity the subber that'll choose this drama though.

ANYWAY, if people miss the show already, or want to understand some things from the point of view of a Korean professional, I'll put his channel link (boys planet playlist) here : https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9cF3PoDggnPgO3IE58rJEIvEHSU5PhmX

It looks very offbeat.
