Was supposed to air in march, but I guess they postponed it since it's hard to cast this (main female lead is supposed to be fat, yet as charming as Marilyn Monroe and should be not only able to act well but to sing well as well. The original series has a musical element & viewers of the orginal would be very disappinted if they didn't include it in this as well).
Goodluck to them in finding a suitable lead, they'll need all the luck they can get!!
Because acting isn't just the eyes and if the average person can't see it, then you are clearly failing. Most…
Clarification: Didn't say acting is ONLY about the eyes; said it the MOST IMPORTANT aspect.
Here the character is supposed to be a held back inexpressive woman who've only experinced pain by other people. She won't be expressive with such a closed heart.
Don't confuse ACTING with WRITING. Noone could save a character like Jin Seon Mi that's written so flatly. The fact that you can't separate OYS from her character speaks volumes of her acting ability. She also gave new layers to Asanyeo, and played her better than the BuJa actress. (Love that actress too though!) And don't blame the actress for the character's ridiculous naivete. That's on the writers. It was stupid of them to write her that way.
As for Mawang. He overacts here. I really like the actor and know he can act very well (seen his other works) but the director here seemed to have told him to be extra over the top all the time. But apparantly overacting is more your style. ( But not CSW's fault who can act well, it's clearly the director directing him that way.)
The problem remains: many actors don't properly act with their eyes. The result is a character that's unnatural with their feelings however much they express with the rest of their face (&body). Windows to the soul and all that! This is especially a problem with many asian drama actors (not acting with eyes).
OYS acts well and has expressive eyes, making many confused, she's so natural, many are unable to separate her from her (boring) character.
Next time though, I hope she picks a more interesting character.
is it just me asking for the dog secretary to have a back story too? as for jin seon mi being plain-faced all…
The most important part of acting overall is acting with your EYES. Too many ppl focused on facial expressions yet give the best actors, the ones that actually act properly with their eyes, critisism for apparantly not acting well tsk
I'm excited to have Kyung Soo Jin in this, but can she finally start getting more lead roles!? Not hating on Nana BTW, on the contrary I like her & the idea if her with Park Hae Jin <3
Just really hope Kyung Soo Jin can start getting lead roles after this
I have a feeling this will be totally frustrating to watch because of the annoying love triangle angle. They better make it clear once this drama starts who the shippable male lead is and not leave them as equal leads for all of the drama!
hmmmm I still don't know if I like this or not... but I will totally watch until the end because I'm very curious…
The PIG labeled it as brother/sister, I don't think it's the writers being confused, just that they're trying to show the pig's utter cluelessness in calling the one person he actualy likes as a brother :p
Is the guy with the fur good? He seems a bit of a prick.I really like the song. ♡
He warms up later on. He's never before felt the need to answer to anyone, not even fully to " the heavens" in this drama I don't think. Later on he allows himself to be tamed by the female lead and even desperately wants to be less of a "prick" as you said. It may sound weird to you now but as you continue later on his arrogance somehow becomes part of his charm and it blends nicely with his newly found warmth :)
If you enjoy a male lead who gives a lot of emotional reassurance you should enjoy him as a lead, calls female lead pretty every ep :p
Lucky Romance <3 yet another enjoyable drama with her in it :) She's clearly not the type of actress that's liked by everybody, she gets alot of hate for apparantly screaming too much and apparantly playing "too weird & over the top" characters, but I really really like her quirkiness and acting style!! One of my fave actresses <3
Wish she would make a comeback soon, 2016 her last drama was 2 years ago already!
Yeah. Son Oh Gong and Jin Sun Mi together as humans in next life? Or something like that? Nooo. I don't want to.…
Right! Reincarnation ending seems to be the most common ending for fantasy genre. So boring and predictable, I hope fantasy dramas (including this one) will find better & more original endings
All these people saying this drama keeps geeting worse/bad writing. That's funny, I personally think this is getting better! And while some writing flaws this is still written better than the average drama
Sometimes I think this is parody of everything. XD
Oh you mean like
Parody about useless "weapons": the umbrella
Parodying the ultimate female fantasy, The male lead as an over the top chaser who constantly gives praise and affirms love: Song Oh Gong's "Ilove You/you're pretty" in every ep :p
GGG as a parody of the umtimate fear about love: Love interest doesn't truly love me?-fear
Parody of Push/Pull or WillThey/Won'tThey relationship: SJ & SOG's constant "he/she loves me/doesn't love me"
Parody about zany humor: The bull's over the top zany behaviour and expressions
Parody about being clueless about own feelings: The Pig calling the one person he actually likes as "brother" :p
Soulswapping parody: Not only Winter General & Summer Fairy in same body, but also all the frequent soul switching later on
Goblin parody: When Winter General cries it snows
Parody about Magical girl genre: except here the heroine's power is a useless umbrella, but she learns to "transform" to a mightier person, here in the form of Samjang who can call her powerful protector
Parody of an unforgiving God who gives out harsh punishments: 1000 years of pain, Death fate between SOG & SJ etc.
Parody about bitchy love rival who'd do anything to get the lead for themself: Here it's even dangerous with the love rival being an evil spirit with supernatural powers :p
Parody of a spoiled princess bitch: 1st thing the evil demon does is go shopping the most expensive clothes, prioritizing that over her evil plans
Parody about the loyalty of dogs: Lee El's character
(btw this isn't directed at the hardworking subbers, just me venting my frustation in general over the SITUATION of waiting, not at people; especially after such cliffhangers)
Goodluck to them in finding a suitable lead, they'll need all the luck they can get!!
YES to more and more scifi dramas! :D

This show has the worst cliffhangers and translation seems to take 2 days by average...
currently watching other dramas as well but cannot watch them now my emotions too invested in the next ep of this one.
#Should'veWaitedForAllEpsToAirBeforeStartingToWatch
ARGH!

And 1 of them a hot kissing on bed (and 1 a near kiss on bed) omgdiugjndidndnk!!!
Not to mention the K18 Throwing, catching against wall and choking foreplay scene....
LSG & OYS was FIRE.
Was this ep really from a korean drama or was it a western series with no censorship lol
