Love movies

Korea made two sci-fi dramas that were excellent: Memories of Alhambra and Are you Human? However I don't know what their budget was for either.

Remember, the big American money movie machines saw Parasite's success and now they are going to Americanize Asian movies. I agree, episodes are too long (except for Japanese ones) and the second male or female contest is getting very annoying. There are a few things that should be changed, just like the holding of hands for 30 or 40 year olds, not too realistic and rather submissive female leads is another problem.

I've watched Western movies/series for a very long time. I discovered Asian movies/dramas and I've dropped all American movies/dramas. One problem is the female roles are still usually submissive or indirect with few exceptions. That is still my hangup but all in all, I have not watched a Western movie/drama in a long time.

Thank goodness you said that! Well put! All true! Thank you!

Thanks for the suggestions and I've watched Flower of Evil. Although the amnesia at the end was useless at best. FOE is one of the best series I've watched. Thanks again. Yes, Song is amazing especially in Vincenzo. His stoic face, eye expressions, fantastic!

Here too!

Yes, you are right, I also read about the camorra organization on wikipedia. after you mentioned it in your comment. All in all, Vincenzo series might hit "The Godfather" fame :-) Thanks Prathg!

I've watched the series Gomorrah - pretty interesting! But is the leader's name Vincenzo?

We hope, we hope! Not only Song and Ok should get awards but the director and the screen writer too! Thank you for the info about Jang Hyuk.

Yes, I forgot the pigeon! And all the pigeons (CGI?) that saved his life!

Thank goodness he's been nominated! Thank you!

Thanks! The last scene of Ep 16 with Joong Ki was Oscar-worthy for sure. I still have shivers after watching the last few minutes. This series needs some significant awards. Like Parasite, it is far above most other series. However we still have 4 more episodes to go. I'm holding my breath that they don't resort to the overused tropes. The postponing of Ep 17 concerns me.

I'm waiting for the end to see how it goes but somehow this series needs to win some special award. The acting on the part of Song Ki, and Ok Taec was spectacular. Realizing that Parasite won the Academy Award, I feel this series should be recognized for something. As an American watching Asian series, preferring over American movies, I realized that I made the switch because of dramas like Vincenzo and others before it.
Yes, we all sat at the edge of our seat, screaming at the TV, but it wasn't only the suspense, the OST, the acting and the lack of tropes, it's all of it combined. Thank you Netflix too.

You are welcome!

Surgeries are easy to skip for me too :-) I loved Sandra in Love me if you Dare and that drama is a rewatch for sure
Just not enough Sandra and Bai in YAMH time.

I didn't like Descendants of the Sun. I kept forcing myself to watch it but the FL turned me off. I almost finished it but I gave up on it.
You are My Hero is very different. It comes off as more genuine. I'm on Ep 18. There is one aspect of YAMH that gets a bit technical: the surgeries and the SWAT practices. Lots of view time is spent on those parts and less on the personal relationships between the 3 couples. I would have preferred more of the second than the first. Too much information so to speak in details.
Having said that, I think it is very much worth watching - Yes, a bit on the Chinese propaganda but the series is sweet, interesting, detailed and Yes, please watch it!

Where are you watching Breath of Destiny? I'll look into squid 2. Thanks so much.

You are my Hero is on my watch list. Will watch it next.
Breath of Destiny, I'll look into it. Thanks Rakshith for the recommendation. Sometimes I don't know what to look at next.

It’s formula driven but for 2021 and future it needs to change.

I hope in his new drama one boat one world, his character isn’t the same stereo part
It’s getting tiring. He’s exec producer of the boat one. . We’ll see.
