it is his speciality...remember Beauty Inside, he played a guy had no emotions, like a robot..class year of 2016…
Forget about the specialty; as an actor, he needs to demonstrate a range. The issue is that both he and his management tend to pick scripts that don't offer much variety, almost as if they're trying to shield him. Sigh. Hopefully, he'll show more depth in the upcoming horror movie of his that's about to be released.
JJH's visuals look a bit different from his other dramas. is it a romcom thing to make the male leads have chubby-like…
He doesn't look chubby, in fact he looked somewhat chubby in blood free I would say...or maybe it's the hairstyle??... I like how he looks here. IMO he looked his absolute best in ITEM 💀
The humor is so forced While the humor in the first season was still exaggerated, it felt grounded because the…
The dinner scene with Hae-il in the first episode of season two was honestly unbearable. It felt like they were trying to make his character funny through sheer obnoxiousness, but instead, it was just cringeworthy. The whole scene lacked any real humor or charm, and Hae-il’s behavior was so over the top that it crossed the line from amusing to annoying. It’s like they forgot how to make his temper and quirks funny without making him insufferable.
Yeah great observation because I observed that too when I watched both episodes last night. These things do happen…
Park Bo Ram deserves some grace here—after all, he directed Good Manager, which is easily one of the best comedies out there. The issue this season seems less about direction and more about the script itself. In the first season, the humor came from the characters’ situations and the way they naturally reacted to them. The protagonist’s anger made sense because he was displaced, bitter, and struggling in a new town, which made his outbursts feel genuine. Detective Ko’s quirks were funny because they fit his unfortunate position within the squad, enhancing his pitiful charm.
This season, though, the setup just isn’t giving us that same foundation. The characters don’t feel as organically funny without those underlying tensions, and so the humor is falling flat. Without a compelling setup, their antics feel like they’re reaching for laughs rather than letting the situations speak for themselves.
I still can't wrap my head around why they wrote out Detective Seo Seung Ah—she was hilarious and added such a unique layer of awkward humor to the show. Her ‘cringe’ factor, like that unforgettable moment when the whole squad stood there painfully while she tried rapping, was so endearing and relatable. She balanced out the group’s dynamic with her unintentional awkwardness, making the squad scenes even better.
I also really miss Hwang Cheol Bum and his loyal sidekick. They were such a memorable pair with that perfect balance of menace and comedy. But since their story arcs wrapped up in the first season, it makes sense that the script couldn’t find a way to bring them back. I just hope the show finds new ways to fill those gaps without losing the humor and authenticity that made the first season so enjoyable
While the humor in the first season was still exaggerated, it felt grounded because the characters had depth, and even the protagonist’s outbursts seemed genuine and relatable. We saw glimpses of him actively working on his anger issues, adding a layer of authenticity that balanced his flaws and made the humor feel earned. This season, however, it feels like he’s abandoned that growth and is now embracing his anger almost as a gimmick. The outbursts don’t seem to serve his character’s journey anymore—they just feel like forced attempts to remind us that he has a temper. Detective Ko’s exaggerated hand movements this season are another aspect that feels forced and frankly a bit eye-roll worthy. All the characters had quirks in the first season that felt natural and added to the humor without overshadowing their personalities.
Fingers crossed that this doesn’t set the tone for the rest of the season. There’s still time for the show to find its footing again and bring back the charm and authenticity that made the first season so engaging.
i think i get her after ep 9..she is just that convinced that her parents will always think she is the killer…
The way she was obsessively searching for Su Heyon, and the fact that she terrified someone out of their wits, isn’t going to be ignored—even by her own parent!

Also why was PJT searching for LSH?
Why did JHB's clothes had blood?(If JHJ fell from the mountains)
Why Lee dong wook's father?
I like how he looks here.
IMO he looked his absolute best in ITEM 💀
