I wanted to like the drama but the female lead's choices at times didn't make sense. Sometimes she made choices that had an obvious and negative outcome and then it had to be cleaned up after. So to me this went against the smart or strong female lead. I think the writer wanted to create drama and used the easy way out.
I would just like to point out a quick point. All of these actors have contracts that they agree to. They also…
Didn't Harvey Weinstein's victims have contracts? There's a thing called a casting couch and what if it starts with "let's see you without a shirt". Some men might not mind but maybe some feel like a piece of meat and don't want to but really want the part.
I have a question, which is born out of the different subs for : 铁甲依然在, (tie jia yi ran zai) which is…
I think the Eagle flag is a symbol for the samurai. In one episode it was put up on a wall as a symbol to other samurai to meet up at a secret place. I'm rewatching now and picking up details missed first time.
I agree but first let me say I've saved a few screen shots of "chocolate abs". BUT I changed my view on these scenes when the "Me Too" movement hit South Korea and also reminded us of the female actress who committed suicide after being pressed into having sex with powerful people. Do you think only women are pushed into "entertaining" powerful players in the entertainment scene in Korea? Or in China. Not every actor has the popularity or good representation to avoid being abused. Don't get me wrong, I am not immune to the shirtless scenes but then I wonder how the actor feels and would they rather just act.
This male lead gets mis-cast often. He has this smooth handsomeness that gets him type cast as a cold CEO or here the robot boyfriend. You should see him in Ice Fantasy where he played the Fire Prince. He was 3 dimensional in that drama. And yes he is married, ironically to the actress who played the Mermaid Princess in Ice Fantasy. If you haven't seen that drama give it a try. He really rocks it as the bad guy.
I'm no fan of dramas with 2nd male lead as a plot driver. This is the main reason I dropped it. I got really attached to the 2nd lead and also his acting.
There I said it.
