Maybe it was problematic but there is no politcal correctness or snowflake culture in either japan or korea, so…
Reason it's bothering me is cause I'm African myself and I have been living in Africa since I was born, so I know some countries in Africa are actually pretty nice and developed. Yeah my own country isn't great, but it's not nearly as bad as the places they show in these dramas, nor the Kongo you talked about. You know till this day, some people ask me online if we live around lions and giraffes lmao I'm 24 years old and till this day I never had the honor of seeing a lion nor went to a jungle. So this is what am talking about, when they shows such things in media they make most people believe that all Africans still live as savage tribes in huts in the jungles whiteout electricity, water, food or proper clothes, hunting wild animals to survive meanwhile we live in cities, buildings, and have most stuff anyone should have in this day and age from food to technology.
Oh, it's cool. Honestly the only reason I decided to watch it is cause of the funny title. I think they did it on purpose as some sort of word play, but the drama is indeed shitty honestly. At least to me it is.

They could've just said he went to some country in Africa to do volunteer job for a year and he is already back and call it a day, no need to show all these stupid offensive scenes. It's nice and okay to do volunteer jobs and all, but the way they show it is the issue making Africa always look like some utterly backward and disgusting hell hole lmao Yeah I know some countries are actually suffering, but not whole Africa is like that, the could at least mention the name of the country not just say Africa.
Should have been 8 eps tops. Way to dragged out with many filler scenes.
And so many unnecessary characters and couples with their stupid love stories...I think Kdramas should start making more dramas with 8 episodes maximum like you said from now on honestly.
Don't know if you're being sarcastic or not, but in case you're not no, it's supposed to be Shooting Stars, although in my personal opinion Shitting Stars sounds better lmao
Seriously, after I watched the first part I was so freaking hyped to watch the second part to know what will happen next (Not gonna lie, kinda hopped Woo Shik's character will come back to life somehow lol), especially since the FL actress in that part nailed it. This part though...was kinda ass compared to part 1.
Everything was basically a shitty copy of part one with less interesting FL and plot. The foreign actors were cringe as fuck, the Korean actors trying so hard to copy Woo Shik speaking English and sounding badass was painful as well (Apparently according to them, saying FUCK!!! Every damn sentence is how you sound cool, seriously even actual Americans don't speak like that lmao...), I was half sleep during most of the movie and only scenes I 100% focused on during the movie were Lee Jong Suk's scenes, seeing him all of a sudden with long hair was a bliss, but guess what? He had 2% screen time, like seriously why cast a very popular actor to give him a minute or so screen time?!
I only finished the movie hoping he will have some badass moments like Choi Woo Shik, but nah...this part was quite pointless and messy honestly. Even action scenes were a bit rushed, I could barley make out what was happening during them, I wanted fights like the one between Da Mi and Woo Shik in first part, detailed with really nice moves. Not just cars and people flying around and dying after one hit. This is why some shows/movies better have only one part/season.
I suggest you to watch LJS in VIP (movie)/ Big Mouth (drama). Let's see if your opinion still stays the same :)
Ikr, I love Lee Jong Suk and his acting, he is awfully charismatic, yet I didn't even get to finish all the dramas the hater above mentioned lmao I personally wouldn't bother watch that many stuff of someone who I don't even like to begin with so I don't understand why they wasting their time like that.
He's such an amazing actor!! Wish he would do historical kdramas too 😍🥺
A Goryeo one (I think that's how that dynasty is called?) with him wearing a nice Chinese inspired Korean traditional outfits and letting his long flawless hair down with some nice bangs. I would kill to have that, not the Joseon one with the odd transparent hats, hair up, and overly puffy outfits.
Dami was the charm of s1, they just used it's hype and added many "popular" actors to create more buzz but their…
Honestly, I agree. The only reason I watched this till the end is Lee Jong Suk and his long hair like damn! AND THE DUDE BARLEY HAD SCREEN TIME, WHY THE HELL DID THEY EVEN CAST HIM?!!! Lmao but everything else felt like a less exciting copy of the first part and FL was meh.
LSJ needs to get a drama with that long hair of him
Like seriously I was dying when I saw him with the long hair, I'm already weak for him and pretty guys with long hair are my exact type so it was a double kill lmao
He should've just eaten the dog...especially after that cake incident :D
Not gonna lie, I thought the same thing lmao if he is willing to drink piss at that point, he might as well eat the damn dog, I mean in that type of situation no would would blame him honestly.
I think room leader dont die, it's just a setup by PCH
If that's the case then that will be good, cause if he dies that easily after all this drama they all went through to undercover him, that will ruin the drama for me and I really love this show.
Also I don't get why would Akira have a need to confront the sensei tho? Like does he just want to relieve what…
My thoughts exactly! What was the point of that confession and was he really so into his teacher that after all these years, he still cries over him?! Like damn why make Minato that immature? It's like Shin's is growing up in the speed of light while Minato is losing brain cells. Also yeah the kiss joke made me shudder, they should've just removed that part. They tried so hard to make Sakuma come as a sweet, cute, and clumsy type of character, instead he makes me feel uncomfortable as if he is faking it at times, idk how to describe it. I also dislike the architect dude, idk why but both aren't that likeable to me.
Holy it's getting real good. Often dramas die at this point for me
Ikr! Most Kdramas become draggy and boring, or irritating and pure nonsense as hell after 10 or 12 episodes. Some even slowly turn into trash after 6 episodes only lmao
Yeah I know some countries are actually suffering, but not whole Africa is like that, the could at least mention the name of the country not just say Africa.
