Yeah, A lot of people get bored if it takes longer than they are used to. I'm not an exception but sometimes I wait it out and am pleasantly surprised.
TBH I'm not quite sure yet, but I'll help best I can.
I first started this when it was airing but dropped after ep 3. I almost did the same this time around. It's a pretty slow building drama, no instant gratification like some others of the same genre. There's a heavy emphasis in dark magic in this, which is originally one of the things that drew me to it. There doesn't seem to be a hard system for the magic in this, if there are rules they haven't been explained very well. There is also an age gap romance (Yoon Shi Yoon is 13 years older than Kim Sae Ron), but in my opinion it doesn't show that much between the characters. I've also heard it's a tragedy, but since I have 9 episodes left I'm not sure.
11 eps in and it's still slow, however I like the sub plots, aesthetic, OST, and music. So I'm willing to watch through a slow pace.
Thank you sooo much for this article! I'm far from a horror fan but a well made horror with a good plot is always a welcome treasure so I'm trying to watch more as of late.
I think the writer intentionally made DS looking so dumb like that. What if the diary actually has Inwoo's name…
If you're thinking that way, he also absolutely broke down and is getting sick because he killed a person. After he kidnapped Seo Ji Hoon he also got a pretty nasty beating. A lot of the time when he tries to stall an investigation it only gets worse etc.
The reason Dong Shik is more confident playing the rolls in the movies is he already knows them by heart and those characters weren't like him. As soon as a scene breaks down (like when the kid punched him mid coin toss) he loses his cool because it's not part of the script. He isn't very good at improvising.
But it's not logical ? We saw a lot of moments with DS's internal thoughts when he thinks he is a murderer and…
Actually Dong Shik has expressed multiple times that he is completely sane, and that he is a psychopath. My biggest thing is I can't see him being that public about it when his family is most likely watching. I also wonder how that will effect his dad's meat place and his brother being bullied.
They might pull that, but I think it would take away from the feeling of the show. Honestly he might get an insanity plea based on what's happened so far.
This was the first thing I saw him in and I totally didn't recognize him when I started watching his other projects…
Haven't started that one ye, my currently watching list is too big and I still haven't finished scarlet heart ryeo. I did watch another movie with him today and he was awesome as ever.
All I have to say is, “Don’t do it 8th brother!” (Scarlet Heart Ryeo)
This was the first thing I saw him in and I totally didn't recognize him when I started watching his other projects like Forgotten and scarlet heart ryeo.
Started watching this because of Lee Jae Wook and I have to say I'm glad I didn't give up in the first 30 minutes. I'm only one episode in but so far it's pretty good, rather than being a quick paced romance it's taking the time to build the characters.
Was there any k-actor that looks like him out there? I feel like i've seen him quite often, i'm shocked that he's…
While I was watching extraordinary you I thought I didn't know him cause he doesn't act in my normal genre, but today I found out it's cause he's knew. So far he's freaking great! I actually saw him in alhambra first but didn't recognize him at all between projects.
That's funny because I read the opposite elsewhere ( sung hoon not fitting his role and Shi yoon seems more psychopath…
I'm pretty sure I commented down below that Dong Shik is scarier than In Woo at times, probably sometime around the 4th episode airing.
Honestly I've seen more of In Woo now, but I still think Dong Shik is scarier in psychopath mode because he's a wild card. He mimicks whichever persona he feels the situation calls for and he's got some serious screws loose.
