As a fan of EXO I can safely say THAT is NO comparison to this.

I'm already in love with this show! The lead is so cute and adorable I'm completely sold! @u@
A shame she won't get to be with her crush, right? I mean, that's pretty obvious thanks to poster spoilers and what not u__u Anyway... he's so patient and nice... T^T I would be naive to hope for them to be together but... ugh! ;w;

Well. That can't be a good sign, right? lol I need help.
lowkey hardcore #baekyeol shipper

:(
.....
That's Baekhyun's hand, right?

When that little reunion happened I shot Joon Oh a deadly glare and echoed: ...really!

Another user put together words that precisely describe how I feel about Missing 9 at this point: "love-hate".
I have mixed feelings because...It's basically confirmed that none of the beige/coloured clothes theories, the flower garden featuring domestic bunnies, the luminous "jungle" where they use lamps anyway, the open sea that echoes, Joon Oh's sudden disappearance and reapperance unquestioned, the burning wreckage on the beach after the plane crashed and sunk in the ocean, the currents around the island that bring survivors and their curiously-stocked-with-food-luggage IN and dead bodies OUT and many other mysteries we kept daydreaming about are nothing but... well... flaws.
Alas.
That is such a punch in the stomach after fantasizing big about this drama... but I knew the risk I was taking. I was too hopeful. Of course they would think it's alright to make everyone slightly important survive a plane crash without any security measure. And that's just... offensive. In a level I can't even put to words.
I don't want to dwell on that though or I'll be pissed and exhausted while others will take me for a hater and will bore me to death with their defensive/passive-aggressive speeches. Besides, I have other reasons to love this drama... if I can turn a blind eye to all that's absurd in the plot, even if there's still a lot of question marks, I can enjoy the music, the acting, the drama, comedy and suspense. The mystery? Not so much now... it's gone down the sewer. The show is still enjoyable though, in a general perspective.
Nonetheless, it's too soon to say anything regarding whether or not this is headed to a better or worse ending. I can't even think of one yet, not really looking forward to it as I look forward to next week - which is a good sign, believe me. The cast is good, characters dense, Missing 9 is a good project that could be 50x better if the writers were daring enough. I won't judge the production too much since I can see clearly why sponsors would feel skeptical about a drama like this... they did their best with the resources they had at hand. Alright. I'll take that. But that's about all that I can ignore.
I was wrong about the CEO... I thought he never made it out the island, I even told someone here that, but that accident of his... WOAH. Straight A's to that! I jumped on my seat - it looked AMAZING! I love "unexpected" the most. I mean... of course his brother would do something but we know how it usually goes in dramas, right? Around five or six episodes of evil planning...
Anyways... I'm still wondering what the heck the suicide on episode one has to do with all that unless that guy was evil CEO's son???? Maybe?????? Sigh. Dunno... I'm convinced since the very start everything was his plan anyway. But then the co-pilot says something about a curse????? And yet they try to shove the "real deal" thing down our throats anyway????? I'm lost in ways those stranded kids never were, not even once.
Not surprised Tae Ho lived. Of course he would. And the lambs are to blame for that too. He's definitely a psycho though because he killed the first man without a sweat and annoying girl (whose name I can't seem to remember and it doesn't matter anyway) too. The only one he really didn't mean to kill was Yeol for whom he had feelings. Aw. It's all good. Chanyeol's acting haven't improved anyway. It was kinda painful watching him struggle. But Tae Ho... I mean, the guy who plays him... he's good. Clap, clap, clap.
Can't stomach romance yet. I wish they didn't. But of course they would.
And though I really like Ji Ah, her character is sometimes inconsecutive.
Ah... I don't know what else to say. I would love to go on about all that's wrong about this but... in the end... I still really like Missing 9. Oooh... controversy. :~) (It's ruining my life.)
I'll just stand by and see what happens next week. Already PMSing to have to wait until then because DAMN, I've never been this anxious. ' ¬__¬ So yeah... over and out and all that jazz.

Steel beams of death sounds so poetic! lol I loved that as well, oh my, I jumped on my seat!

I wouldn't have phrased it any better. Seconded.

That's how it usually goes though.

Bless whoever gave Gyun Sang a lead role. HURRAY!

Amen.

Looks like White Christmas 2.0. I hope this one is better.

Not at all, I love those! My discussions/messages tend to get long because I always end up going off topic eventually. XD But let's stop here before someone throws rocks at us. ;w;

And there's the depth I've been missing! At last!
haha you're cute! XD That was a rhetorical question but yeah. There are some dramas that ditch those clichés and I feel so refreshed watching them. *-* Perhaps I have trouble dealing with that because I'm such a... cool? person. Cool as in... cold headed? I don't know if that makes sense. lol I don't like secrets and beating around the bush, I'm straightforward and not very patient so that tends to bother me a lot but it's okay. I was just kidding while whining about that one, grew used to it by now. XD The plots are way too often too intricate imo. There's no need to use a thousand knots to make something interesting but no... the leads must be connected in 130412 ways. u_u

I know. I'm not saying the drama sucks, I'm in love with it. BUT, because there has to be one, I'm in love with it HOPING it has a major purpose behind all we see. Surviving a plane crash isn't impossible. It's very unlikely, but not impossible. Even if it crashes on land, there can still be survivors as long as they know proper security measures. We already know there wasn't a single soul in that plane who did or even buckled up so yeah, nobody should've survived. But I'm not asking for 100% realism. I'm asking for a level that can be accepted. Even if half the cast made it through and half didn't... that would still be unrealistic but way more acceptable. Also, they should have severe injuries all over but they carry minor scratches and make-up and perfectly done hair (which I can ignore well at his point since make up and hair is a given to all k-dramas - no matter what, they still look dashing). You see? That's the problem. We all know k-dramas are unrealistic, not only k-dramas but everything on TV meant to entertain is. But there's certain lines that should not be crossed although I don't believe this drama is going to cross it. Hopefully. Because that would be a shame.

Only the main cast survived. All of them.

LOOOOOOL

Yeah, you're right. She's not terrible, I'm just annoyed. But she's not a good (and when I say good I mean great XD) actress or she wouldn't have messed this up so badly. I still remember people bitchin about IU's acting in Scarlet Heart and she was completely mind blowing with a single stare so I really don't know what's wrong with people. u_u
Right? For the first time (in forever) I'm anticipating what'll happen next. Their relationship/friendship is one of the points of interest to me and now... oh my... how can Moo Myung even think about hurting Maek Jong at this point? They're so cute together. :( Why do people never tell the truth in dramas? Ugh... that would save so much work. Like: "Hey, I did not kill your friend, mom's guard did. In fact I was trying to stop him but my horse got stuck in some wild bushes in the forest and all that jazz. I can point you to the real killer btw" :/

Here's someone in their right mind. Thank you. Seconded.

Tae Ho is one hypocrite bitch.
