After watching the teasers, this show seems to also focus on ALL of the village mothers/parents, their problem children, and how the entire small village takes care of everyone.

i'm only watching for one person (Yoo in-soo) because "healing" dramas are not my genre. but I think there is much more than "romance" in this one.

Thanks for sharing. Hope it ends up on Viki (doesn't seem to be on the Netflix radar).

A favor fro MDL viewers.

I was sick the last few days and finally began to watch this drama. I was trying to get caught up before the next episodes (11-12) but failed. If I am lucky, I will get up to Ep. 8 tonight. Began to read through MDL and TOO MANY Spoilers for Ep. 9 and 10. I usually don't mind spoilers of minor points, but learning the major stuff (who is the real Lee Seol? Who is the current Watchman?) was unfortunate.

My question/favor: Have they revealed who is the "original" watchman??? The one who saved the teen Lee Seol? I have a theory on who it is (based on scenes from Ep. 5/6) but if it has been revealed, I won't waste time speculating.

Side note: I begin "Josean/historical" dramas because they are tagged as "comedy" but the violence (especially innocent lives) is distressing to me. One reason I don't mind knowing minor spoilers in advance. 😄

Agree. Joon Ha is not evil; Se Jin IS. I don't see a possible gf/redemption arc for HER, but wouldn't be unhappy if he has a happy ending.

As for Se Jin - after going forward w/the wedding knowing her father was in the hospital - if they redeem her, I will remove at least one ⭐from my rating. I like your idea of jail/prison (I will give a PLUS ⭐if that happens.)

Yes. If this was a 12-16 episode drama, they might drop the "fake"/pretend/unserious custody battle. But somehow they must stretch it out to FIFTY episodes (my mind is blown, this is the 1st time I have watched anything more than 20 eps).

Yes, all of your statements are accurate - but I think are irrelevant when there are 40 more episodes to go. I don't have a crystal ball, but I do know that He HATES Dr. Gong and he loves Se-Jin. My prediction (just a guess and admittedly I haven't been watching k-drama for 5 years like some people) Evil B***h SJ will manipulate him to go for custody at some point in order to get revenge on Dr. Gong. Perhaps SJ will convince him that she will marry him and help him bring up the child? It's all guessing at this point but it would be classic drama - whether in Asia or the "West".

Ooops - I meant I hadn't watched today's episode (Episode 10).

I haven't watched Ep. 11 yet (waiting for Viki) but after seeing the end of Ep. 10, it's clear that Se Jin - who IS A MAIN LEAD - is going to be there to the bitter end. Probably the last 15 minutes of Ep. 50

And the Fourth Main Lead is Joon Ha. He's a rotten jerk, but not evil like SJ. At some point (and I don't know how to predict a 50 episode k-drama - will be at the 50% mark? 75% mark) SJ will find out that the baby is really Joon Ha's and the custody battle will commence.

There is a new photo of the UC2 poster (it's not an official release yet). It's clear that In-soo is going to be crazy - he's the main reason I will be watching UC2.

It's tentatively scheduled for July 29th release following "See You in my 19th Life'. However, they were still filming in April so I think that's why nothing official yet.

Edited; 1st poster is making the rounds on Twitter - not official release yet, but perhaps further indication that it will be July release.

Yoo In Soo will play Jeok Bong - he's a new counter in Season 2.

The following link is an "episode" from the web-toon and helps explain his character. If the drama character is anything like the character in the web-toon, YIS will be perfect for the role.

Were you thinking he would play a villain because of his role in All of Us Are Dead? 😄

He is her husband.

If Sang-jin (the CEO) is correct, Yu-ri was already cheating on Soo Hyuk.

I need to go back and re-watch the scene when BoRa is reading Yu-ri's letter. My recollection is that the letter was all criticism of ML and no recognition of his positive traits - so much criticism that BoRa called him "mean" and "petty" - obviously judgmental and untrue.

Loved Ep. 4 - I'm now on board with the show.

I especially like the ML character - have now put "My Holo Love" on watchlist because of YHM.

Leo Soo hyuk is my favorite. Still don't find the character of BoRa endearing, but perhaps the script will change enough for me to care about her. Meanwhile, I can't help but cross my fingers for Sang-wook and Yu Jung.

It's official! You In Soo is the newest counter "Jeokbong" or "Red Bong" (I think he is the counter who can smell evil???).

Jin Seon Kyu is "Hot-blooded firefighter 'Juseok' or "Jin" (he is described as a "benefactor")

Kang Ki Young and Kim Hi Eo Ra play "more powerful demons 'Pilgwang' and 'Gellie'

After reading your comments and Bloomingtide, I finally understand that there are "weekend dramas" and "dramas that air on the weekend". Thanks for the explanation.

So, I understand you and ErickaRamirez, there are "weekend dramas" which is different from "dramas that air on the weekend".😂😂😂

I know that Netflix licenses kdramas from the broadcast channels, but I don't recall watching one that was this many episodes.

I've been using the FF button a bit but still behind. However, after reading comments about the "end" scene in Ep. 8, last night I jumped to that point and NOW I finally looking forward to new episodes. I will finish watching Ep. 7 and 8 before the weekend. 😀

It's available now in my time zone (8:15 AM PDT). I'm not sure when it was released.

I put this on hold until it is complete but I hope Do Jin survives.
