ok let us see :) I thought they go Our Underwritten Seoul route and just willingly switch on their own

THIS "KDRAMA" IS TRASH AND HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH KDRAMAS.

This is a slightly watered down Hollywood trash. It starts toxic but "normal" and then after just a few episodes quickly gets into nightmares and craziness and just trash overall.

and after watching the first few episodes and fast forwarding through all 12 episodes to make sure that the trash stays trashy, I made a definite and clear conclusion -

I WILL NEVER EVER WATCH ANY "KDRAMA" MADE BY FOREIGNERS, e.g. Netflix or Disney. IT IS NOT A KDRAMA ANYMORE.
I concluded that this guy is correct. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1_j6izmEX4 How Netflix destroyed kdramas

I YOU WANT TO FEED THE BRAIN CELLS IN YOUR BRAIN AND WATCH THIS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1_j6izmEX4 How Netflix kills kdramas :) Good luck - if you can understand it, you are above most people in this group. I just got a notice that 17 people cannot think.

Wow 13 brain dead people. Fantastic. IDIOCRACY 2006 movie have you seen it? I AM WATCHING IT RIGHT NOW IN YOUR POSTS.

Great, you got 17 paid ppl to click on this. Good job, trolls :)

Gosh the Idiocracy from 2006 already happened, here you are, totally uneducated, unaware OR a paid troll.
You certainly have not seen any older kdramas so you have no idea what you are talking about.

Farewell, do not even try to talk to me since your arguments are total childplay. FAREWELL.

What is Netflix doing? They are already taking over kdrama scene and pushing out Korean producers. So with this releasing 4 episodes at once.. even entire series .. what kind of damage are they doing?

Netflix puts up a catchy ep 1 and gets ppl to watch THEIR show and NOT watch all other Korean shows from Korea, so Korean productions are gonna be KILLED. Netflix releases their 4 episodes in FR-Sun time, so maaany other dramas that air 2 episodes during the weekend will be just .... not watched. ...
Since Korean producers are smaller and live from advertisements, they really are gonna be killed and Netflix will be the only one left showing anything. .... THAT IS EVIL BY NETFLIX.

I hope it backfires on Netflix and destroys them. Bc ppl will maybe binge watch this show and then ... will be done, so they will go on to watch Korean shows and forget about the Netflix drama they just binged.
But Korean shows live on advertisements, so if the smaller during-work-week audience generates less ad revenue than the huuuuge weekend audience... Korean shows will be dead.

Or, is Netlix hoping that after ppl binge watch this drama, they will find something else on Netflix to watch?

Or is Netflix hoping that releasing 4 episodes will create a huge buzz and keep ppl glued to Netflix, as they have global audience so the good news will spread fast?

I dunno... Netflix is certainly destroying Korean dramas for sure. EVERYONE HAS BEEN COMPLAINING THAT NEW KDRAMAS ARE A LOT WORSE THAN OLDER ONES. bc now the focus is on creating something dazzling bombastic "interesting" and cashing money fast, rather than creating a creative drama that helps people deal with their lives.

This is gonna be a battle between King Kong and Godzila since Korean producers were not saintly and really exploited their writers, crew and actors, so now all those people ar motivated to work for foreignersand have more options. I am not sure if the foreigners pay better too. In any case, they show the show globally so there must be more money in working with them? I do not know. It is global but all under Vogue and other big names and anxiety pills and doctors, so seems like they want global unification as all of slaves under a tiny group of elite and under their terms.

The true benefit of this Netflix show is ending of "starving child" look of Korean actresses, and even male actors. This FL got body - the legs, the but, the boobs, some meat and muscle on her. she looks healthy and moves well. Finally to see a kdrama lead that is not a stick figure.

Also, big foreign companies like Netlix or Disney pay idols and top actors and that makes ppl watch it. Like idol Jun Ho who is not a great actor at all, the acts *** the same *** in every drama he does, but has a large fan base. Now Disney is using Hyun Bin for a very stupid destructive role in a drama with very questionable messages that evil wins always.

Netflix is not interested in art or culture propagation, they are only interested in making money, and Netflix dramas are nothing special and nothing meaningful, definitely not really really Korean. Disney is a lot worse, actually. These foreigners will totally eradicate Korean stories and creativity.

The only benefit is tha Netflix has $$$ for these dramas filmed all over - Japan, Italy, Korea, etc.

Hm your view is super biased. She is entitled to hate the shows you love.

Wow FL is super dumb, immature, pathetically ENTITLED greedy. Spoiled brat child in adult body. Yuck. It is better to be straight forward and openly say FL is a demon, like in Judge From Hell. But... FL in Judge from Hell was actually trying to do good deeds and save the world.
This FL is a destructive force. 100% destructive. She got nice legs in a flashy mini skirt and plastic surgery thick lips, and that's all she got.

And ML is her enabler and a total cemented piece of stone idiot, hurting others so that she, the greedy selfish monster, does not lose her pride. He is enabling her evil side and keeping her stuck. Since he is cemented, he never ever is his real self.

THIS DRAMA IS 100% TOXIC AND HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE KDRAMA CONCEPT.

NETFLIX MISSED IT, OR IS INTENTIONALLY RUINING KDRAMAS.

OK if you think you know it already, I am done with you, never ever contact me anymore. Farewell.

I do not see that you understood one word I said. I said A B C and you are addressing X Y Z.
Your response is so naive and clueless, and your attitude not worthy of spending the time to attempt to have a dialogue. So dream on, I am not going to disturb your deep sleep. Farewell.

Well two good friends / music and business band teammates are not necessarily BL... LaIk certainly didnt feel any BL... if WU did feel it, he hid it very well. But I doubt it... !

Two men can be just very good friends.. esp if they run a business together... that is very common ...
La Ik and WU started the band from scratch and climbed the band up to the top... so yeah they ARE very close friends.. at least on surface LOL seems like WU had secrets ...

If anything, I would think that perhaps WU cheated with La Ik's ex...

Gosh poor Twin is so **dumb** literally low iq and very high level of self pride, insecurity and immaturity. Those usually go together.
Ok,... the heroine is just an average or below-average person... ok then so she will appeal to more ppl. I get it. But it is boring to see her CONTINUE to be completely completely clueless, by choice and habit. Move it...

There is Disney drama Made in Korea airing now. It is typical disney approach - showing really bad ppl being in power and nothing can be done against the evil. Very depressing bleak, enforcing belief in evil. The only other flavor is stories of magically being saved, like cinderella. I have not seen ONE story where ppl on their own effort and collaboration get something positive done.

So this is going to go very badly and it will have significant consequence on Koreans losing their identity and freedom to create / keep their own art and culture.

I think I understand where this is going. Koreans are going to lose their FREEDOM to make Korean stories as they wish. They will be culturally overtaken and made to follow what americans pay for.

Bye bye Korean independence, culture and thinking.
A way of neocolonization.

I saw Japanese dramas about teenagers who want to be bullies in school and train to be a part of yakuza. It is like a recruitment tool for yakuza.
This drama is like that. A good naive guy lost faith in patriotism and evil always wins bc ppl ar inherently slimey. Very bleak dreary hopeless, true disney. And if you win it is by sheer luck and magic, like cinderella, some charming saves you magically. I hope this kind of stuff stays on the bottom of some dark drawer forever.

I dont like him. He is a douchebag. Not a mean nasty criminal one, but a slimey snowflake petty entitled spoiled brat kind of guy. Not the lowest life out there, but very immature and annoying

I hope she grows out of that asap. I am not sure how... but I am hopeful that ML actor would not be in a toxic drama and that the drama should go deeper into WARMTH - ep 3 had it :)

Clarification: I dont see it essential for their growth. They could learn to trust with a friend too. But... perhaps not as much and definitely not as fast :) I see their attraction as helpful for QUICK growth, like a plunger, a cut through bc it makes them MOTIVATED :)
They are healthy and their hanging out together in very close situation is very expectedly causing curiosity and attraction, and they checked each other out and say HEY THIS IS GOOD! I WANT IT! Sometimes ppl feel attracted and check it out and say - hey no, this is not for me. We do not get romantically involved with evry person we are attracted to LOL Often there are friends who have a crush but decide never to make a move.
