I thought a lot why this drama seems so exciting to ppl ...
thought a lot why it is exciting.... there is a LOT of plot and twists, all the time, and it is always high stakes, ah so serious, so INTENSE, ah so death and life every second.... this drama is like being in an emergency room on Friday night after all the drunk/drugged driving and accidents.... you dont know where to work first as everyone is at critical state... So THAT is adrenaline pumping... it is always live or die INTENSE... no pause to breathe....
and ML is always ah so competent and protective and loyal and sexy, and FL is a hero in her own right and also ah so competent and based on integrity and sexy, and the two of them are magnetically pulled although they come from two different worlds, So it is very high adrenaline tension all the time... . That is why only 9 episodes. It would be very hard to keep this pace longer. In an emergency room, we get different cases so you can mke 50 episodes out of it... Here .. you could make more episodes only if they go to war... or if this war situation keeps lasting... But... the bad guys are gonna get caught OR ml/fl will escape so the story will be over LOL In terms of character growth, we see ML going from a coldblooded killer to a caring man deeply in liove - I think - and FL from a naive cold chick to a hot smart chick who had to give up a lot of deldelusions and grow up fast.... So the immense transforamtion and two unlikely ppl coming together is also exciting... But ... this drama is sooooo serious... No comedy... No lilight, peaceful, calm moments...... no happiness.... It is an emergency room setup.... ! And... this is all pie in the sky. I want to watch ordinary ppl doing such amazing things too. Like... Shin's Project :) Or even My Troublesome Star...
This drama does not make me feel good and does not leave me feeling upflited and happy. It is a roller coaster that drains my adrenal glands LOL I feel so much better after I watch Shin's Project bc the vibe there is lighter, more tragicomical, and up even if it is some grossly serious stuff, and so fun to watch... compared with dark murky serious Paik.... and always dramatically whispering MJ.... The couple here is 1000% drama, nothing else, everything is so INTENSE
I guess it is ok as an excursion into their world for a little bit... but ... ppl must be dying from heart attacks in their world LOL it is soooo INTENSE .... ....
I have a question about bugsOh in case you were wondering, my mother gave me this nickname bc I ask so many questions…
FL bugged StAnthony pendant that ML was wearing. he gave it to her and she returned it, bugged LOL
FL's aide bugged her phone. Was it just GPS or bugging everything? I forgot what he said to FL in ep 7... Then the aide gave the cloud password to MIL ...
ST ANTHONY PENDANT BUG ALSO SENT STUFF TO THE CLOUD but that was different cloud, different password bc FL set that up
Also the aide had a bug in his wrist watch that he got from MIL
The Janik/FL house was bugged a lot by MIL
ML bugged ... what? I think one outlet in her bedroom?
========== Why are they leaving on a ship in stormy seas to Mongolia? What's the deal Korea-Mongolia stormy seas? Seems like Philipines is where Korean criminals go bc it is easy to enter and nobody from Korea catches them there?
I have a question about bugs Oh in case you were wondering, my mother gave me this nickname bc I ask so many questions and want to know everything LOL I am not so fond of that novel or movies LOL
i usually like this genre, but dialogues look like a 30 year old scenario, usa good, savior of the free world,…
Nah, the usa is not portrayed ah so good here ... they want to drop bombs and have war... .they ask to kill FL.... nah.. the US is portrayed as bullies and criminals here..... The "president" has to keep fighting those dudes that keep promoting war.... And John Cho as a good guy was minority..... The East presidents and NIS are also portrayed as the same type of morons :) The FL and ML are heroes and are from the East.... and all the ppl who supported FL when she was running for president.. East is shown as partially good ..... THIS DRAMA HAS GOOD AND BAD GUYS ON ALL SIDES
Statistically, from real life .... NO. Paik will die on the job, sooner or later, and FL is so sloppy and stubborn, and he protects her, she will cause him death for sure. But since this is a movie and movies often talk about that case that is 1 in 10000000000, then maybe.....
Ridiculous kiss and love making scene that feels forced and out of place. Her husband just died and she does this.…
2 healthy adults on a magnetic pull experiencing the last day on Earth before the nuclear epocalypse ... and you do NOT want them to have fun? They really like each other. So how would YOU spend your last day? Watching tv alone?
I have been studying that. Because the twists and betrayals are done well. Also, because it is set up in a highly dangerous situation with this slippery slidey hot guy who is always there to care for her and protect her and somehow fell for her. It makes the drama very raw, like watching a survival show. The sexy factor is really high. In short: ML is unreal :) the stakes are high, .... FL is competent and has high goals.... But let's think some more about this :)
Polaris is another name for the North Star specifically. And there's all manner of symbolism as the North Star…
Oh ML has 1 ton of butter on his head.... he is like ... .. spy 10000 times .... he is ... obscure and slippery...... Ppl like him .... are .... well.... from the dark side.... He kills people routinely...... Yet for some reason he is sticking to FL..... how long can that last... ?
Was i the only dumb one here who didn't suspect any neither the MIL nor that OLD MAN🥲
I started suspecting MIL from the start, operating in a secret room in their house, wanting money, harassing FL, and esp when she wanted the inheritance and assisted in elections. I started suspecting the old man when he was screaming at that rally. That was sooooooooo odd.....
Imagine being a presidential candidate and self destructing your chances by giving in to lust and playing with…
Yes he is a lot classier. He married the porn star and consistently cheated on his wives. Did not wait for 10 years working far away apart from the spouse.
So THAT is adrenaline pumping... it is always live or die INTENSE... no pause to breathe....

FL bugged St Anthony's statue pendant that ML wore
Did anyone bug the crosses that MJ and HaNa wore?
In short: ML is unreal :) the stakes are high, .... FL is competent and has high goals....
But let's think some more about this :)
