About an 8.5. There are reasons why I like this series - It may not appeal to a lot of people. If you liked Squid…
All I can say is that good boy is unique! It’s very different from other series in that. The small group of police officers are not particularly bright and they don’t have the law on their side so that’s what makes it interesting.
Ram09, this series is not for the weak-hearted. It is a hard watch, but for me, rewarding to watch. The acting…
It has it all: comedy, goofiness, gangsters, and the star of the show, the very good actor Oh Jung Se. He plays the evilest of the evils, and he never changes his mind. There was one flaw that I overlooked when the FL was locked up in the big truck; she was able to use her phone for help. Did the bad gang check to see if she had a phone? That was the only hiccup I found - maybe there is a reason for that.
You said it well!! I fully agree with her - either they chose the wrong actress or the writer meant it to be that…
ACGRAD! You should write comedy. It has turned into a stereotype, sudsy soap opera-like "stay tuned for the next episode of MS and DS" We have to suffer through 10 more episodes. I'm enjoying Good Boy, hard to watch, but I don't want to hit the writer over the head like I want to do with the Eagle writer.
Remember, the DS has a wife with two children in real life. That may be the problem, so the MS has to be cautious. Who knows why she is acting the way she is? There must be a reason why the MS acts so lethargic toward the ML.
I don't get why some are very disappointed in scriptwriting, I think in recent there is no drama close to this…
Ram09, this series is not for the weak-hearted. It is a hard watch, but for me, rewarding to watch. The acting is wonderful, the special police group is not particularly brilliant or handsome, but that's what makes it fun to watch. I would give it at least an 8.5/10. I'm watching ep 11 tomorrow.
what do you rate this drama so far on a scale from 0-10
About an 8.5. There are reasons why I like this series - It may not appeal to a lot of people. If you liked Squid Game 1, Hellbound, and others like this, it may appeal to you. It is violet, somewhat funny, and has some romance. I like it very much, just like how I liked "Our Unwritten Seoul." Hard to watch but rewarding. I'm up to ep 11 for tomorrow.
I don’t want to stir the pot but after watching the last episode (44), it is obvious that MS doesn’t love…
You said it well!! I fully agree with her - either they chose the wrong actress or the writer meant it to be that she doesn't love him. If the writer meant it then they should not end up together. As you said, she could me with her BILs. Even her mother might leave her :-)
He was wonderful in the series "When Our Love Blooms," and of course "Yumi Cells." A fine actor who takes his acting seriously. I hope to watch more of his shows.
I'm an older viewer, but I didn't like that plot - completely unnecessary. Why would the writer (s) even bother…
But all that stuff that the writers add in the last episodes sort of ruins the simplicity of this series. It all started well, and the last-minute additions don't add to the series; they subtract instead.
I have a theory, which I would like to share with you all.In the preview, Kwangsook was holding an old photo of…
Interesting theory, Nexe! So you are saying that MIL is Kwangsook's aunt? Still, I think it is rather presumptuous for Kwangsook to ask MIL to pretend to be her daughter.
On the contrary, if Kwangsook is indeed MIL's daughter, only DNA test can prove it.
Kwangsook's request to MIL came out of the blue - unless the next episodes give us more information and that would make it a reasonable request Kwangsook made to MIL.
the latest plot with mother in law and photo and the connection probably .... was so unnecessary in the drama…
I'm an older viewer, but I didn't like that plot - completely unnecessary. Why would the writer (s) even bother with only 10 episodes left? The level of conversation between people in Eagle is minimal, so we don't even understand why the mil lives in the US, or if there are relatives there that could help her. Most of the script comes out of the blue :-)
I loved Unwritten Seoul. Everyone acted their best. Im Chul Soo role as a lawyer was excellent. Highly recommend this series. It's serious, interesting, and it shows that, from a level of despair, with courage and help, one can succeed. Beautifully done.
I just finished Our Unwritten Seoul. I'm not comparing Seoul to Eagle, but the writers of Seoul showed growth in the characters so they could solve their problems.
I don't understand the purpose of what the writer(s) of Eagle have in writing this way. No depth, no serious discussion between the two main leads - just snippets here and there.
Yes, Dongseak told Kwangsook that the mil had changed - that she got angrier and a personality change.
Here's a question: when Kwangsook was insulted before by other people, she strongly stood her ground. Now she is a marshmallow? Why? How can someone be nice to someone rude? It makes no sense. Writer (s) have gone amok.
One can't just fill the remaining 10 or so episodes with trash just to get the job done.
It's not fair to the actors or the viewers. I hope we get some positive changes for the rest of the episodes.
And I wish Mr. and Mrs Tak - enough screen time on them. More screen time on Dongseak and Kwangsook.
I'm mainly watching it for GS/DS - actually for DS, who is adorable!
Where is your review? I don't see any reviews- Let me know where I can find it. It makes sense why you are happy to watch this drama. For me, the ML is the only important person in this series - He stands out, strong, handsome, and direct- no game player. Stay well Florahh and thank you for sharing.
Yes, unwritten Seoul is an exquisite drama,
"If the male and female leads genuinely disliked each other, why would they socialize off-set, like going golfing (at least twice) or eating out?"
Did you see that in a behind-the-scenes post? Interesting that you found that. Thanks for the info. I would love to see the video. I'm surprised.
We have to suffer through 10 more episodes.

Thanks ACGRAD! You made my day with humor!
A fine actor who takes his acting seriously. I hope to watch more of his shows.
Articles seem to say that there will be 4 more episodes after the 50.
Even so, we could dedicate the remaining episodes all to DS and MS and forget all the distractions.
However, I like the little romance between Fl's mom and that Eagle's manager. However obnoxious she can be, at least she has guts.
Onward ACGRAD! Let's hope together! No more mil.
So you are saying that MIL is Kwangsook's aunt?

You are quite a sleuth, Nexe!

Excuse my rant :-)
