I do not get this script writer... Ok sure the drama has to start by some major mess, that is understood... but ... to make the mess soooo easy and obvious was ..... lazy !!! This drama promises to be rather fun and also has some thriller, so ... will the script writer continue with lazy or what?
So ... this experienced pitbull in high position SAW that her colleague was involved in bribery, still let him stay on in a high position, let the whole team stay on, spoke secret things in loud voice in the office.. ... the Mighty CEO spoke freely in front of employees... when they met, they stayed outside visible in the light... EVEN AFTER CEO CONFIRMED TO HER THAT THERE IS A RAT.....
Even a small kid these days knows not to do that.. So... will this script writer continue to be this lazy for all following episodes? Then there is no point in having this drama...
One good thing is that the global audience is NOT for super skeleton-skinny Korean actresses (and actors) - so finally we get to see some really good looking healthy women, like those ladies at the start of ep 1 ... Wow!!! They have stunningly gorgeous bodies. That lady in the white dress with black polka dots is a stunning beauty, and all her friends, they got GORGEOUS figures. Finally we get to see real women in kdramas!
SKELETON WOMEN ARE THOSE WHO EAT SALADS AND DIET AND KEEP THEIR BODY FAT AT LIKE 10%. If you are naturally thin although you eat well and are physically active, that is fine. You are going to have MUSCLES and therefore by defintion, you are NOT a skeleton woman.. A SKELETON WOMAN JUST KEEPS HER "MODEL LOOKS" AND DOES NOT EAT AND DOES NOT EXERCISE. I am talking about those here. The model types. OUT WITH THOSE UNHEALTHY HABITS!!!!
being thin is ok when it naturally happens BUT IT IS NOT OK WHEN SKINNY IS FORCED - and yeah that is body shaming, you cannot be "fat". I totally hate body shaming in kdramas, which FORCES actresses to be super skinny and look like they are starving.
Marilyn Monroe is a "fat pig" according to these silly standards.
Even models today have to maintain their weight above a certain number.
SO YES, OUT WITH SKELETON WOMEN - THOSE WOMEN WHO ARE MADE THAT WAY BY STRICT DIETING AND MEASURING THEIR BODY FAT AND WEIGHT TO CERTAIN LOW VALUE
I am not body shaming, I am promoting HEALTH
Out with Skeleton women and halelujah to healthy muscular nicely shaped strong women!!!!
Skeleton women are probably models but - out with skeleton models too!!!!
Let women have their health and muscles and fat, 30% body fat is necessary for female hormones to work properly. It is well known because athletes who go under that percentage, lose their periods etc. there is a whole bunch of health consequences when hormones do not work properly
I think this allowing women to be healthy is going to raise Korean birth rate, which is the lowest in the world. Skeleton women have no energy to live their lives properly, are not healthy, and definitely will have reproductive issues.
Looking at countries that have proper birth rates, they got women who are strong and in good shape. For example, African or Brazilian women are drop dead gorgeous, muscular to plump, and healthy
MDL summary says tvN produced this, but when ep1 opens, it shows Netflix Logo, then Studio Dragon logo, then it says NETFLIX SERIES. So how is Netflix involved in this drama?
ngl I would not be against the ML going back to his ex-wife. He can slowly change her into a good person and make…
After seeing ep 5/6, I am in total agreement with you She likes him, she is super flirty and all over him, also super ... dumb and entitled rude... and she got great legs. Romance there will be FUN :) Those legs on the screen are a welcome detail. So many actresses are too skinny to even live, so to see a pair or REAL legs is a victory to good health and strong women. Yes. She is in. She has the energy to chase Ji Seok.
The head nun prosecutor can stay as a work friend :) and the reporter too. The reporter is awful skinny looking and no romance air around her. I remember that actress from The Real Has Come and it drove me bananas how skinny she was yet supposedly pregnant, plus she always act the SAME all the time.
Hey judge killing ppl is not cool. When fighting a monster, you canNOT become a monster
Also, I dont like the idea of encouraging the "victim" to rejoice in revengeful killing. Also, even if they are just mocking, it is a huge risk, what if something had gone wrong and that boulder fell... The Judge is not a trained James Bond with 10000% precision. Ok this is a drama but .... it lets kids grow up with wrong ideas :)
Fashion comment: recently GREEN and burgundy was discovered as a color that works well on Koreans that have lighter brown hair and eyes. Ji Sung is wearing a dark green shirt at the end of ep 5 and it looks great, with dark blue/burgundy/gold tie. Earlier in the ep he was wearing a greenish tie and that was cool too. Can this Love Be Translated wore bright blue shirt with a dark blue tie that had neonish green pattern, and a dark blue coat. So yeeah another new color is bright blue shirts for men. Ji Sung also wears washed navy blue coat with burgundy/ gray/ light gray tie and it looks good, with off white bluish grayish shirt off the same color as the light stripe on the tie, and olive pants. Then he wears that same off white grayish shirt - or very similar - with a tan coat and a tie that is dark navy blue with thin burgundy and silver and double stripes in that tan coat color.
Interesting!!!! How did they think of those color combinations??? !!!! it is amazing.
All kdramas have unique costuming and hair style for all actors and create separate characters with that. It is incredibly creative.
Black hair guy like Kang dude is wearing a light gray suit and that looks great on him.
It all looks very good. Whoeveer is putting together the wardrobe, has an amazing sense of color
I like Ji Sung's Judge fashion and clothes, shortish baggy pants and a normal length coat for work in Seoul and a short baggy jacket for work in Cheong... - and white socks!!!! in Seoul too LOL he is definitely different as all those dudes wear dark socks with leather shoes. He is not wearing white sneakrs but some kind of dark shoes though. I have to check that.
The best part imo is Ji Sung's Judge hair, all spikey up, like he never combed it. It totally matches his character in his drama and generally the way he acts - he is a troublemaker and a jester. Was he a nightmare rowdy kid and found a way to make a living out of it... ? He looks it for sure LOL
Omg Chef Brother "Gordon Ramsey" Jun Ho is actually the paid henchman killer in THe Judge Returns, the end of ep 4 and the start of ep 5 has him take off his mask and it is him.. with a dead serious face.. that looks thinner than in First Man. and he cut Ji Sung... dapuna... sekiya....
ALSO, he is ML in Positively Yours which just aired this weekend. The same role always - very serious poker face... I wonder IF he can act :(
I posted yesterday about this but deleted. I am wondering if the Chef is her son??? They seem to butt heads a…
Yeah there are two possibilities, but it is one Kang boy. bc this drama tends to go from one scene to a different scene with an answer, when Evil CeO was thinking of her son, the camera want to Cook Brother... And it is for sure it is one of the brothers bc Professor's Wife keeps treating her husband and Cook Brother and keeps calling him "Son" - and totally ignores the other brother. So either Cook Bro is adopted and she tries to "include" him or he is a real son and Lawyer Bro is adopted (more probable). It would be more wicked that Lawyer Bro is Ha Neul, son of arch enemy of Poor Sister, and is in love with Poor Sister, and Cook Brother ends up with Rich Sister, and his father cheated with her mother.
but his ex is an airhead and the mean clan member... I dont think she can be changed. ,, and I wouldnt wait or…
yeah.. that's why movies and dramas often provide false hope and delusional fantasies LOL And vice versa... sometimes life is a lot crazier low-chance event that you could ever imagine...
The way the story is moving forward I can this this drama is going to the January winner amongst all those released…
Ah there is Idol I, with its deep dialogue and deep social commentary... and No tails to Tell with its totally rowdy comedy.... and even To my Beloved Thief, with its equisite dialogues and tight plot.... and even a sticky realistic melodrama Love Me... and all those have *excellent* acting.... so... the competition is steep :) and I am glad!!!! So many great choices, long live kdramas!!!! I will be glued to the tube for days and days....
but his ex is an airhead and the mean clan member... I dont think she can be changed. ,, and I wouldnt wait or…
That is true and not true :) you know why? bc we all get delusional and thins WE are the right person and then we get dragged down by this insufferable parasite... who is NOT changing LOL and we think - oh it just takes time... and then... 10, 20, 30 years later... we realize the time expired LOL
to really nail it and really BE that right person who will emanate the change... that ... happens rarely :)
The first 2 episodes had lot of cringe moments, overdramatic scenes, and plot errors.Ji sung's acting was exaggerated…
Ji Sung acting style is to exaggerate ... He acts the inner hidden feelings of his character, he shows what a normal person WOULD behave like if there were no limits, i.e. how they would LIKE to behave if they could, but they cannot so they restrain themselves to honor the social norms... He behaves to show the inner emotional state, so it is always amplified over the top acting and it creates comedy
for example: I will always remember him sitting on the sofa next to his evil fatjher in law and fidgeting and rolling his eyes in fear... LMAO
plz lemme know free websites to watch this kdrama.
dailymotion, dramacool, dramanice, myasiantv, goplay, febspot, billibilli mkvdrama are all free BUT some have malware like kissasian and all of them have ads and tracking
Just type into google "judge return ep 1 eng sub" and see what comes up, If nothing comes uo then try specific like "judge return ep 1 eng sub dramacool"
Taxi Driver 3 just ended, so it’s natural for viewers to check out what follows in that time slot. Most January…
Hm you say NO ratings ar relevant anymore, or just TV ratings? I think ratngs are meaningful in some sense - it is a measure of one particular group. Viki Ratings tend to be realistic, MDL ratings tend to be "what teenagers voted for" etc So you have to know the audience. But for some dramas, it is kinda universal. So yeah ratings ar super iffy but still somewhat useful imo.
