This sounds like a very cool plot , hope this drama airs so is the drama when he just goes to work in auto shop or is still there, or after 10 years of being there?
wow this sounds like a total carnage, so brutal. Ppl said it is a masterpiece but ... It is the same old story of some psycho causing carnage and then zillion good ppl dying to stop further carnage.... How many times have we seen this so far in real life?? WW2 comes to mind... Chairman Mao ... was never stopped lmao .... I might try to watch a little to check it out. 54 eps!!!! seems too much :(
This is going to the dogs. It's very hard to watch specifically YN. KW KD why?
Gosh the computer I am on makes me lose stuff I write... So writing again:
a story is interesting only when the main character wrestles with some problems, keeps self reflecting, and keeps trying in better and better ways until he/she/they win. And the win has to be something meaningful and "good". In the West, many "stories" are about main characer trying and failing and giving up. That is not a story, that is propaganda lmao to crush people's spirits and make them complacent. A true story has to show good winning over evil and that obtained by the EFFORTS of the main characters.
And this drama totally lacks any efforts. All characters but HJ are so one-dimensional, set on their course without any doubts and self reflection. NOBODY IN THIS DRAMA DOES SELF REFLECTION AND CHARACTER GROWTH except HJ. All other characters are STALE AND STUCK. So yeah it is boring, the script is made by lots of external actions and mind games between 4 gangs which are fighting to get Adelle. The 4 gangs are JR, Chairman, Chloe and Aunt. MJ, YN, and HJ switch sides as they see fit at the moment. So everyone is STUCK in this mind game trying to outdo the other teams.
NOBODY IS GROWING
So the drama is like a chess game instead of a story. And any time there is a drama like that, it has to depend on creating crazier and crazier script
The solution is to resort to simple interactions in daily life and SHOW THE CHARACTERS. The solution is to show Chloe wrestling with her BJ identity and love for MJ and growing compassion of HJ... to show Aunt/Mom wrestling with her 30 yrs of nothing and her relation and lies with MJ... MJ wrestling with his aliances and Chloe betraying him.... We now see the Chairman wrestlign with the realization that BOTH his wives are liars lmao it would be fun to resolve that by him marrying Yu Na lmao
The story has to have characters have higher aspirations, wrestle with problems, try to fix it, fail, self reflect, try again, UNTIL they succeed and in that, transform. In that process the relationships must grow. A lot of growth comes from overcoming personal clashes and conflicts.
Daily Our Happy Days is doing that and is very high quality
In this drama, Aunt lies to MJ so she and MJ have NO RELATIONSHIP, they never get to face each other Chloe and James also have no real relationship, he never really stands up to her. Chloe is shown as an isolated blind liar who has servant to help her. Aunt too she is just a more careful blind liar. MJ is shown as isolated as well. His closest relationship was HJ and that was cut by HJ. But we never see MJ missing HJ or either one trying to restore the relationship.
Overall, they are all isolated mind-driven characters so of course they are boring. We are watching a chess game. HJ is interesting, and JR sometimes, when she shows complexity like when she was telling HJ to marry out of love, and Chairman is interesting sometimes like now, both wives are bad lmao and he is confused.
Chairmans' secretary betrayed Chairman and came back with the help of Aunt but that was never used to create interesting plot
This is going to the dogs. It's very hard to watch specifically YN. KW KD why?
Who are KW and KD? Sorry I am bad with names in any language
I was already thinking that YN is boring, so I will share my thoughts She is boring bc she is one-dimensional. There is no depth to her character. She is just an evil psychopath and her only goal is to eat ppl. So the acting is one dimensional too. The plot is always the same, YN trying to make plans to get something for herself. AND HER PARENTS DO NOT KNOW. so yeah it is the same always, and it is boring. The cameraman tried to help it by showing more of YN actress, who is pretty but that is not enough, since her role is so ... flat....
yes JJ is #1 then Dai Chi, then ... G ;( and her own mother JR lmao
Hm how can you say they are nothing? We saw them in numerous acts of organized criminal activities. They symphon Grandpa's money into a slush fund. Now they have the code to the safe and will try to steal the will, house deed or whatever. They are CRIMINALS and they are after G's inheritance and all grandpa's assets. AND GRANDPA DOES NOT KNOW. So Dai Chi and his wife are very dangerous as they are still very well camouflaged.
Dai Chi and his wife are two criminals in white gloves, they cheat, lie and steal. They want money that G is supposed to inherit. And, G is stuck having contact with them as relatives as long as grandpa and grandma are alive.
Dai Chi and his wife are criminals who see themselves in a competition with G for company ownership and inheritance money. THEY WANT IT ALL FOR THEMSELVES. And they use crime to get it.
So, Dai Chi and his wife are the main enemies of G and... so they will try to trip G and thus EA in every way possible.
G cannot leave grandpa and grandma, so he will be stuck with Dai Chi and his wife ..... And, his grandpa will probably leave him the company or at least something that will make G clash with Dai Chi and his wife..
MH is also a relative that G is stuck with, and MH could cause problems, but is not gonna be as bad as Dai Chi and his wife, who are CRIMINALS, they steal and cheat..
=== Other prominent enemies directly to EA are: G - bc he is a weak character and a slimy liar - and EA's mother, who is a blind rhino in a destructive charge most of the time and has brain of pea size. HOWEVER, the good thing is that she, after being worked on and talked to for a long time, does come to her senses. So the abandoning EA was resolved rather fast, and seems like lost mom is getting resolved rather fast too.
So, G is probably overall the worst enemy of EA bc he still talks about leaving to the USA, does not tell her important information about himself and thus causes her harm and suffering and confusion, and tends to gaslight her (EA was "weak" bc she was bailing thinking they were cousins, but it is HIS fault he did not tell her).
So G has the ability to totally backstab and puncture EA's heart as well as cause her physical harm. He did not tell EA yet that Dai Chi and his wife t his inheritance and always diss him (and MH too).
In other words, G is a very very reckless, irresponsible selfish not-serious boyfriend.
....All of what youre complaining about is due to the script, how is it the actresses preference if the script…
Sure the script. But the interpretation of the script is up to her - and there is NO WARM FEELING AT ALL ..... Also, the same keeps repeating in her other dramas... So.... something is fishy
Omg what an amazing drama!!!! I saw only 3 eps so far and the setup is great. I read the reviews that say that from ep 5 this turns into makjang. Well. I will find out later if that is true, and is so, then I will stop watching, what I saw is enough to make me happy.
ML actor is fascinating, bc he can look anything from really mean nasty gangster all the way to very gentle child. I dont think I saw him anywhere else I started actively watching in 2019.
This was filmed before plastic surgery and dieting to super skinny and bleached hair and pale faces. ML is super handsome and more manly and good looking than any of the the modern metrosexual manicured plasticized dudes. And the houses have a lot brighter colors and a lot more wood. It is FASCINATING to see the REAL Korean drama.
Also, the WARMTH, this is much warmer and "humane" than modern kdramas, which tend to be very bland, with many main characters being poker faced, and family and community not important.
yeah sure in this drama, ML actor is the only really good actor in the kimchi family, but he is so good at acting that he is able to carry the drama.. The only poker faced in the drama are Uncle and Dad, and they are minor characters. The thugs and villains actors are great

Also, pls put a spoiler on your post above with all the names :)
so is the drama when he just goes to work in auto shop or is still there, or after 10 years of being there?
so how many ghost dramas have we had recently? several dramas with lawyers who can see ghosts and take their cases...
etc
I might try to watch a little to check it out. 54 eps!!!! seems too much :(
