I just watched it and like your observations. ML is one of my favorite VD actors. He was perfect in this role. The only other actor that would have done as good a job would be MaXiao Yu. it aso wasn’t too long. The kids were very cute. It had a nice blend of fantasy, revenge and romance.
it held my interest even with all the obvious plot holes. i think the writer was more interested in the psyches of the characters than the plausibility of the story. That was evident in so much of the dialogue between the various characters. I think the writer also wanted to contrast the difference between the two “Husbands” and how far they would go to protect the ones they loved and at who’s expense. It was more of a psychological thriller although it had plenty of action scenes. The end was more realistic than what most of us would have preferred but it also left us with a bit of hope. .
Definitely one of the best weekend dramas in a long time. The last one (Recipe for Love) was good, but I like this one better so far although RFL has a lot of funny scenes and this one is more serious and a bit stressful.
I love all her outfits. That red dress in the latest episode was amazing. i didn’t love the white gown at the end but if anyone could pull it off-she can.
Namkoong Min is brilliantly carrying this drama.The secret surrounding the character Kang Taeju was finally revealed…
I can’t imagine anyone loathing NM. He’s one of the best actors and a K Drama idol as far as I’m concerned. They need to watch My Dearest if they have any doubt as to his ability. As for this role, he played it perfectly. I can only hope that we get to see his sweet smile at some point in this one.
I like how the preview for the final episodes turn the tables on the kidnapper. This has been a good thriller. NM is excellent in the role, as usual and KDM played an excellent psycho. After his role as a sweet doctor in Hospital Playlist he’s really shown his range. The actress playing his wife always has the same expressions. I’ve seen her in at least 2 other dramas and she was expressionless in those as well.
