AND I STILL DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY ML SAID THAT ABOUT HIS WIFE IN THAT TAXI WHILE DRUNK. It seems like he did not love her already. I really do not feel any love from ML to FL. He is like her bodyguard, not her lover. Sure he cares but it does not seem he cares like a MAN, more like a robot. She seems to have feelings for him.
See the spoiler for specific insights. To me, analyzing a drama is a practice drill for detective abilities. I LOVE to profile characters. I correctly saw the feeling of PrettyLadyDoctor for ML, and the shady of GoodFriendDoctor :) and the immaturity of ML's wife.
AND I STILL DO NOT KNOW WHY ML SAID THAT ABOUT HIS WIFE IN THAT TAXI WHILE DRUNK. What was that about???? .
ML is a medically off, a serious piece of cement. He does not show emotion even with his own wife. The end of ep 10 or scenes in ep 11 - I really do NOT feel any love from him to her. He is more like her bodyguard, an eunuch servant. He is very distant and isolated. Like a mentally off person, like a person with autism or something like that.
Poker face and "empty face" is fitting on the serial killer, but not on a surgeon. There is a HUGE difference between poker / empty face and an introverted reserved careful person. The FEEL is 100% different. The director and whoever else wanted it to look this way... imo messed up here royally. Our surgeon is a rock climber and was a cuddly family man. The drama made him into a quasi Jason Bourne special agent/detective and it just ... didnt mash well. Sure, ML is super arrogant as the genius surgeon and keeps trying to do everything on his own, AS IF he is ALSO an expert in chasing criminals and in charge of EVERYTHING ANYWHERE...... But... the clumziness of that.. WAS NOT PORTRAYED CONVINCINGLY. ML had to be less cemented to be more convincing. He cannot be the same poker face as the crazy psychopath villain. Sure the drama had a slight difference - SOMETIMES - sometimes ML's eyes were alive. But only sometimes.
I AM GONNA KEEP TALKING ABOUT THIS BC I WANT POKER FACED ROLES TO NOT BE BLANKET USED FOR ANY ROLE AND TO BE USED IN APPROPRIATE SETTING e.g. a psychopath villain, servant, etc
Villain's eyes in this drama were empty most of the time. Super creepy. THe villain actor is a master of portraying a mentally crazy person, 100% psychopath. The other 2 villains were also fantastic in their roles. I love the fake smile of the Doctor villain
The villain is acted "properly" and in an amazing way. he is totally creepy psychopath. Wow. His wife is creepy bc she is an emotional psychopath... ANd the other villain is super good in his role as a sociopath/psychopath. Those three really nailed their roles.
The reason for all murder and kidnapping etc etc etc is 100% realistic and super common. Think of Thomas Alva Edison and Nikola Tesla - that is the syndrome here... . The competition to be "better" happens every single day anywhere in big prestige/money jobs. It totally makes sense. Sure, physical murders do not happen routinely, but professional and social murders DO happen A LOT, EVERY DAY. And yeah, most CEOs and any high level jobs are subclinical psychopaths :) Like our lowly villain here, but in a high power/money position. :) About ... 40% of population?
TOXIC FANS LIKE @Danny_J ARE HARMFUL TO DRAMAS THIS DRAMA HAD LOW RATING TO START WITH
AND INSTEAD OF HEARING WHAT THE AUDIENCE FINDS BAD ABOUT THE DRAMA AND FIXING IT, TOXIC FAN LIKE THIS WANTS TO SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG AND KEEP DECREASING THE RATING
IT IS DISSERVICE TO A DRAMA NOT TO OFFER REALISTIC FEEDBACK
IT IS DISSERVICE TO A DRAMA TO BLINDLY ADORE IT JUST BC YOU ARE A FAN OF THAT ACTOR
ML can't trust anyone around him especially his in-laws & co-workers since they all either being threatened…
what a bologney bs fantasy story to defend the ML role. Dream on. What you wrote has no relation to the drama scenes ML did not show emotion with his own wife, even in scene where they have their heartfelt talk
Uh oh ... MS is such a manipulative slithery snake liar and backstabber... no loyalty... no love... JUST LIKE her mother :) The other girl is too naive stupid gullible and kissing as@ of MS, so trusting and believing in love - just like her father lmao It is uncanny how the girls mimic their parents... Y girl is so in love, she is lying to her parents.... and her parents have NO idea what the kid is doing... That family totally does not communicate... Wooow...
So I dont understand - why did the bag go to that woman in that apartment... ? And what was MS's mom doing with those huge bags full of ... ?
This drama is identical in concept Mad Concrete Dreams - an "ordinary" family getting into crime by accident and causing a huge snowball, one of the spouses cheating with the "best friend" involved in the scam, etc ,
BUT this drama has young handsome ML :) and FL :) and is filmed slightly better and is "lighter" in feel, more jester satire, and a lot of fum. Practically every scene is dark comedy, tragicomedy, satire, the music is a totally hilariously funny match, and the camera adds to the comedy
I love love love the humor here... The angelic church music as they are burrying the body... and the christian aka catholic prayers when they were done...
and the line "I am her dad, I have to protect her" ... that's the line of the villain in Agent Kim...
I think the cinematography makes it better than others. Director atleast keeps it interesting. Also what are the…
This is EXACT copy of Mad Concrete Dreams concept - the same basic plot of an "ordinary" family getting into crime by accident and causing a huge snowball, one of the spouses cheating with the "best friend" involved in the scam, etc and all with funky music and cinematography, BUT this drama has young handsome ML :) and FL :) and is filmed slightly better and is "lighter" in feel, more jester satire, and more fun.
After thinking about this, in retrospect, I disliked this drama and almost dropped it. ML was poker faced and kinda autistic, so distant, and the drama was slooooooow unalive ... just like ML... I think there was nothing else to watch so decided to fast forward through the first episodes bc kdramas may make a turn and indeed - the drama got interesting after we saw the villain. Who ALSO had poker face but at least he was a legit psychopath and the poker face suit him, he was creepy
SO I KEPT WATCHING BC THE VILLAIN WAS INTERESTING, not the dead robot ML. ML started showing some emotion when he had to deal with kidnapping, BUT I AM STILL WAITING to see ML behave like a human being. Sure he is surgeon, should be calm and composed, but not UNALIVE. The drama just went too far with ML as really an autistic or mentally off person - it is just too much
"But let's describe the scene where he walks out of surgery, their child is dead, his wife yelling... and…
Gosh to all the robots, be gone! ML comes out of surgery, their kid is dead, his life is crying and in pain, and he stands there. TO all the ppl who think it is ok to just stand there when your spouse is crying in pain, please evil be gone.
IF YOUR SPOUSE IS IN PAIN, YOU COMFORT THEM. PERIOD. THERE IS NO OTHER CHOICE ML WAS SELFISH AND WEAK, JUST STANDING THERE LIKE A CEMENT WALL
JN's mom is a narcissist and snowflake drama queen, SUPER selfish self centered manipulative person without ANY self accountability, self reflection, remorse, consideration towards others. SHE IS EFFECTIVELY A VILLAIN.
, it was SHE who cheated with that married jerk with 3 kids and took him from his family and never let him have contact with them, and she conveniently "forgot" that ... and cries crocodile tears and manipulates JN and others as if she were the victim.... !!!!! She is a MASTER MANIPULATOR - the sob fantasies she told the Accupuncturist are wow delusional .... then sob stories she blackmails JiNi with... then the hospital drama show by SR the drama queen in the main role.. I am fast forwarding through all that crap. THERE ARE BAD MOTHERS AND FATHERS AND THEY ARE BEST LEFT BEHIND
JN is an idiot if she says "I am sorry" for saving kid's life.
I am looking forward to JN dumping her mother. JN's mom is pretty much a cemented narcissist and is not redeemable.
Se ri is really a drama queen , she is acting like she is the only victim and she was the one who actually started…
She is a narcissist for sure. The crocodile tears and self pity ... my response is - you wanna die? PLEASE do so - and quickly and carefully, make sure you die for sure
I had enough of her already and can hardly wait for JN to just dump her. I do NOT think she is redeemeable
I really do not feel any love from ML to FL. He is like her bodyguard, not her lover. Sure he cares but it does not seem he cares like a MAN, more like a robot. She seems to have feelings for him.
