Love movies

I like it too because I don't like anyone one of the characters, especially the doctor. They are all flawed. So I can relax and say "What will be, will be"!

Funny "White Truck of Death" also used in Vincenzo.

Well put! Just watched ep 12 and it made me sick. The doctor and his new girlfriend were especially gross. I'm sure the next few episodes will make the wives wake up. If I were to sympathize with one male it would be Sung Hoon. His wife is pretty artificial but that's about it. They are all living in an unreal world.

Yep, I kind of agree with you. Maybe something like Awaken on Viki as far as the romance is concerned. There are 16 left chapters so anything and everything can happen! I really love this series. Good for Netflix for having it on.

I agree with you on the OST, Tosca at the end of Ep 4 was a tearjerker for me! But what is wrong with romance between them although they both are pretty prickly? We can have it all with this drama - and the combination of Italy, specific the Mafia and the bad guys in Korea gives a new twist on the usual Romcom trope Korean productions. Ray Ray to Netflix!

I hope if it stays as good that it can win some award (not quite like Parasite however)

I can hardly wait until tomorrow so I can watch the next episode.

And not only is he the perfect actor for this role but he is handsome, cool and just plain perfect!

Stasera guarderò il secondo episodio, thank you strevisa for our analysis! Really appreciate it.

Yes, the LM's Italian was not too good since he had lived in Italy for most of his life. It should have been dubbed. With regards to the Mafia boss, it was pretty stereotypical in movies.

Hai ragione. L'italiano dell'attore principale avrebbe dovuto essere doppiato. Per quanto riguarda i sottotitoli, sono raramente tradotti bene, soprattutto le espressioni idiomatiche. Guarderai i prossimi episodi?

Spanish is close to Italian. His Italian is not perfect but it is understandable. I don't think it was dubbed however because it would have been good pronunciation instead. Love this KDrama!!!!!

As an Italian-American, well put Claudia! Look at The Godfather - stereotype? I don't know but it was fun watching it.

As an Italian speaking person, I really enjoyed it!

Love Episode 1. It is really good. I like the Italian-Korean connection, the Descendants of the Sun actor Song Joong Ki is again doing a great job. The Mafia connection is interesting - all in all, waiting for the next episode tomorrow.

Good question! As a white American, I can't watch American movies any longer. They are filled with violence, over used sex, and just not appealing. There is only one American series that I'm watching on Netflix called "Virgin River". (Season 1 and Season 2 and 3 coming up). Fun to watch but the rest is just mostly not watchable, at least for me.

Asian series offers an unstoppable great series like Crash Landing on you, Memories of Alhambra, .....I could name many Asian dramas that have no counter part dramas that are made in America.

Hope this helps!

True! As an American, I haven't watched an English speaking film/drama in years. Thanks to Netflix for showing us some really good K-dramas. I'll start watching this one today!

Interesting theory. We'll see in the next episode where he will sit in the plane and what happens there.

You are making me laugh! I was just kidding. We've ruined this planet and I don't think we need to ruin another one too. Not only global warning but the plastic mess in our sea.

1. Kim Ji-Won's performance grew on me. At first, annoying, afterwards, a zero person, and finally coming out of her shell. Yep, I still think JCW was, as always, in the center of the action, perhaps by script design. Don't know. I just don't think some of the support actors contributed enough; again the script.

2. Well, I think leaving for Canada is on many people's minds these days. As long as Trudeau is there, fine but who knows next. You can always come back. I'm aiming to pass all of this mess and head towards Mars.

Joy:
Your comments were perfect. At first, I didn't quite like LoveStruck - the back and forth beach scene was getting a bit tiring to watch but however, in retrospect, it made sense when watching Eps 15 and 16. The way the plot unfolded was creative but I don't think many of the viewers will appreciate how well it was written and acted. It was too different from other plots because of the interspersed interviews. And it started very slowly.

However, I think it could become a template for future dramas.

Chang Wook is such a handsome, unique, most charming actor that unfortunately his performance takes over every other character in the drama. He overshadowed everyone else since he sucks the air out of the room! At least that is the way I feel.

Thank you for your comments, yes, I live in the U.S. and your comments about Trump and the people who voted for him are exactly on point. We almost fell into an abyss.

Thank you!
