I had to watch the last two episodes again... The bar is now set so high on my Kdrama expectations, I don't know how will another drama ever meet them! aigoo :)
I tend to prefer watching sweet and funny rom-coms over melodramas, but this one has made it to the top of my viewing list. Beautifully told from the script to the cast...
I really hope we see more from Junho before he enlists.
WOW I love this drama,..I also loved When A Snail Falls In Love and Love Me If You Dare by the same author. I am usually an easy going Rom-Com drama Kdrama watcher but there is something about how this writing style pulls me in and I find myself unable to stop watching..
If you watch this on Drama Fever season 1-3 are now combined into one program page with 36 episodes.
Cast Kim Jung-hyun as Kang Dong-gu A kind-hearted young man but is an "icon of misfortune" who dreams of becoming a movie director. Lee Yi-kyung as Cheon Joon-ki The son of an A-list actor who wants to follow the footsteps of his father but is now an actor who lands minor roles. Son Seung-won as Bong Doo-sik A freelance writer who barely receives works. Jung In-sun as Yoon-ah A single mother. Ko Won-hee as Kang Seo-jin Dong-gu's sister who wants to be a journalist. Lee Joo-woo as Min Soo-ah Dong-gu's ex-girlfriend, a famous model.
I feel like his death would defeat the entire purpose of this drama. This drama was about healing from their past…
I don't think he will die either. They seem to always make the viewer expect the worst with the previews. They made us think he was going to get crushed by the piece of construction falling from the truck last week. I agree it removes the entire premise and intention if he does die. This is about healing and living a happy life after years of unresolved trauma. At the moment I think his best chance is an organ donor if he qualifies. I think that was why his sister was reviewing the info about a living donor in 13. Legally the only people that could qualify are family members so if it is not his sister than, it could be his "wife". This drama really could go on a bit longer. Sigh...no matter the ending, parting from it will be sad.
wasn't this supposed to be only 16 eps? i think 20 eps are too much...
It was always 20. Since MDL is updated by fans sometimes the info can be incorrect. The best source is the TV networks website, I usually find the Korean WIKI pretty up to date as well.
I actually LOVED Radiant Office. It was one of my all time favorite ROM-COM Office dramas in 2017. Jugglers was good but it didn't have the same momentum for me...The villain got to be a little over the top ridiculous. The more crazed he became about being VP, the harder his scenes were to take in.
On the other hand, Radiant office kept getting better as the story went on. I appreciate that it highlighted two of the major issues this generation of Koreans are really dealing with: The job market crisis for young people and the suicide epidemic. (Korea has one of the highest suicide rates globally for a developed nation.) The romance was slower paced but being that they were boss and employee, the intimacy level felt appropriate for the context of the story. Even so... the romance wasn't missing, it was just found in the dialog, eye contact, the simple acts of kindness...It was natural and realistic. I really enjoyed watching the two leads build a trusting relationship, one which would last over time.
Plus...I found the dynamics of everyone within the office environment well casted and played, I didn't have the urge to skip ahead....I completely loved it start to finish. And then there is Ha Seok Jin ... :)
I really hope we see more from Junho before he enlists.
Subtitles make a big difference.
