I don't understand why everyone loves squid game when this series induces all in violence for... for what? FOR…
It's not about the killing and the money or even the games that make it popular. It's the relatability, its social commentary strikes a cord with many (even across various countries) in this capitalist world. I'm sorry but those who don't understand this clearly lack analytical skill. Back to school please
shame, i find the ml in the manhwa kinda good looking and im always craving some of that slight romance/villain…
Also no need to apologize. I also want couples in my dramas and yes also love the enemies-to-lovers type situations. Sadly it goes nowhere. But at least there's underlying attraction and fun I-hate-you bickering awaiting us when it comes to Van and Miho. I'm expecting chemistry too, Kim Nam Gil & Lee Da Hee have mutual friends which means comfort and chemistry 🔥🔥
I feel so deprived though, Both KNG & LDH are my faves...I hope they'll do a ROMANCE drama together later on 🙏

It's not romantic between Miho and John either 😅 . He is a priest. In the original Mahwa at least it's just they are friends. I don't know about the later webtoon version though??? I've only seen a few screenshots in chinese of the new webtoon version - google translated them. Haven't found the new version. But I doubt there's any Miho & John romance there eitwhr, he's a priest there also.
So John & Miho are friends who actually care about each other.... Van & Miho at first introduced as only bodyguard Tsundere for hire relationship and Van helps her for money only😅....But then they start hinting at more between Van & Miho, but it's like only 1% of the mangwa. 😅
But it's interesting cause there's a scene in the new webtoon version where Miho takes a shower and John gets nervous😅. But no scene of Miho having any crush on John. Possibly has oneside crush.? Or not crush on her at all, and just normal reaction by a guy in that situation 😅 Also sometime their relationship looks like sister and his little brother even😅
In the original Mahwa Miho also critises her female friend for crushing on Van 😅....but then Miho quickly admits she herself find him attractive lmao. "He's not attractive....eh who am i kidding???" style 😅
In the later webtoon version there's a scene where Miho blushes around Van and gets all sad about him leaving, mumbling something about love even?? WTF Van is also unusually soft in that scene. The guy he was first introduced as (because of how dark he pretends to be) would have just told her to f off there but he's soft lol WTF DUDE I THOUGHT YOU WERE ONLY IN IT FOR THE MONEY???. Mutual attraction despite bickering 90% of the time ? But they never actay explain their relationship any further it's all so confusing 😅
Van is also not as dark as when initially seemed....Spoilers he has principles and only kills when has to. So Miho's first assesment of him as a cold serial killer is not fully accurate either? He is still brutal though, but it's like he's hiding he's not as brutal as he pretends 😅 Van was/is also a monk before in the past but possibly isn't anymore, it's unclear since unlike John he doesn't talk about God or seem to care about religion anymore...A former? monk who is psycho but not as psycho as he pretends to be?? lol
In the original manghwa a very spoilery situation makes me conclude that Miho, despite her passionate claims otherwise, really doesn't want Van to go away😂, even when it's never actually said aloud by the mahwa her character behaviour implies....Then that clingy scene DON'T GO AWAY, Van! + I THOUGH YOU ME WANTED TO , Miho! -ANGST 😍🔥 in the newer version happens, so my conclusion confirmed lol.
....So to conclude, even after reading THE WHOLE ORIGINAL MANGWA, I am totally confused about the relationships and even about the true nature of Van which was only SLIGHTLY touched on in whole of mamhwa lol It's like they are hinting about Miho liking Van while at the same time disliking him most of the time LOL and the relationship doesn't go anywhere but there's like an attraction there?
That's the issue withthe mahwa...it doesn't develop the relationship or even character arcs properly 😅😅. Even the characters themsleves don't develop much. THE DRAMA BETTER CHANGE THAT.
Now please switch around the one who NEVER should be second lead (WHJ) and the one who NEVER is good enough as lead (PSJ) and this would actually be good ....
Oh Cuchu Chuhu tsk tsk....I loved how the show called her "Walking Incompetence Machine" lol SPOT ON.....She's like a baby who needs constant handholding sigh....I don't get how the males in the novel like her, watching ep6 and waiting for BOTH The Male Lead and The Second Male Lead to start liking the more fun Xiao En instead muahahhahah
It is a LOVE themed drama too (which isn't bad at all, I personally LOVE SCIFI ROMANCES), but yes hopefully we can avoid that love TRIANGLE bit, it's an overused unncessary trope not to mention ANNOYING
For me it's a NO. I don't like the pairing. She's older than him and it shows. Acting-wise, she is very good and…
I don't think AGE is the issue here AT ALL. She has acted noona romances well in the past, Kim Soo Hyung and Kang Ha Neul the age difference shows much more than with LMH. And I don't even like noona romances in general, only a few rare actors can pull it off, like for exampe GHJ, Lee Da Hee and Im Soo Jung. I don't even like Kim Soo Hyung yet Gong Hyo Jin made him watchable even good in their drama.
The issue is more ACTING TALENT where Gong Hyo Jin is a much better actress than Lee Min Ho. It could work though even w LMH, GHJ tends to elevate her costars. At least they didn't cast an idol. Was worried back when first heard of this project before, that the cast would be bad (perfect drama idea, so of course likely ruined by casting!), so had LOW casting expectations maybe that's why it seems this pairing could work for me, also I have faith in GHJ.

I'm saying why are are you wishing this overworked man to overwork himself any further? 😅
