Not hating it or anything, but can someone tell me, does this drama get better after first episode? I watched…
Yes, totally worth watching. I had the same feeling but with time things change, nothing is like it seems. Every episode is showing something different, when you think you know what will be next there's another surprise.
In my opinion, this is a fairytale with an interesting twist in it. It shows what happens when two different worlds meet. How greedy people may become, how the synergy between rich and poor is hard to achieve. Everything seems to be planned perfectly but one simple mistake can open the pandora box. If you think about it everyone is a parasite of some kind. It's hard to resist the temptation to do something bad when you know no one will notice. It can be something small like stealing toilet paper from a public toilet. It always starts with small things, but it can lead to much more serious crimes. And that's what this movie is about. 8/10
It's a really nice story but I feel there are lots of elements similar in other Korean dramas/movies - if you watched a lot of these, Parasite won't look as nice as for people who are used to western cinematography.
The first half of this drama was okay but then it got boring. After a few months, I decided to finish it and I skipped quite a lot. I love Ji Chang Wook but this drama was just ridiculous. The ending was unbelievable: she got stabbed, had to be frozen for 3 more years. When she woke up she decided she wants to study abroad. So Ma Dong Chan resigned from his great job and became a youtuber... wtf...
Better to start watching from episode 3. First two eps are just random games and they want to win a prize but then it changed and is dating show now. It's kinda funny that every episode is different, with different rules, contestants have more and more time and chances to know each other.
I liked it a lot but at some point plot became super cringy, I bearly finished it. Stories about lost mother and childhood were too dramatic and didn't make sense for me.
Shouldn't he be able to recognize people by other things such as hairstyle and body shape? But then again this…
Yeah, close friends and family should be easier to recognize by clothes, body shape, voice etc. But I think everybody would be confused if they woke up seeing unfamiliar faces.
It's the type of drama you enjoy but the plot is not that good. You have to be in the I-just-need-romance-drama-with-a-lot-of-kisses mood. I liked it a lot even tho it was super typical, it had almost every drama cliche but often the conclusion was unexpected (for example why he wanted to marry her). In this drama there's a lot going on, so it's never boring and a bit funny because it's too much.
