I also get strong guardian/parent-child vibes between the two.
I'm also thinking that he's plotting more than we think he is and not just against her.

i hate that right now Top is the only redeemable character (in under 5 episodes). I think Sand is redeemable in fewer episodes than that, but if he and Ray are end game, then unless he strongly calls Ray on his DUI issues, then his redemption arc means less. Unless they stretch this out with more episodes, I don't know how anyone else can get their acts together with the time remaining. eek

it's so bad it's good for me. LOL. I keep laughing at how seriously they're taking themselves, especially since the acting and story aren't so great. But I'm enjoying it for some reason. The mains are charming in their own quirky way.

lmao! your review made me laugh so much. Pretty accurate imo. To add onto your review/rant: I thought he as the WORST person to pick for a bodyguard EVER. Like he has zero training or skills in the role and yet they keep him around as the main protection for someone who they're supposed to want to keep alive and safe.
I agree with everything else you wrote. Their acting really took me out of their scenes, the writing has a lot to be desired. What a surprise to see Perth in the show. I wanted more of him since his character seemed to the the compelling of everyone, but it wasn't meant to be.

list is suspect. ummm. how did I get all the way to the bottom before a worthy TOP action film was mentioned? ha. good try though.

i wanted it to be better but I think they put all their eggs in the baskets for the 1st 2 episodes and then waffled back and forth on what they wanted the rest of the show to commit to being and the story they wanted to tell for the remaining episodes.

So unfortunate since the actors had strong chemistry most of the time. There were also some pretty funny instances due to embarrassment, attempts to avoid embarrassment and misunderstandings.

Edit: to be clear, I did enjoy it and binged it. I just wanted to enjoy it much more than I did.

i watched it because of the comments. I was prepared for the mess of the beginning and my expectations were managed. It really was a showcase of the agency's talent roster and I was entertained from beginning to end. Even during the so-bad-it's-good parts of the show.

Thanks to everyone who left comments and reviews. I might have skipped this one otherwise.

both. it's a prequel to the webtoon, so there's potential "happy" but how we get to that point has plenty of ups and downs. There are multiple endings in the final episode and though not entirely sad I wouldn't say they're happy either. maybe neutral with a sprinkle of hope for the future.

reminds me of the movie "Songbird" (https://youtu.be/IgxXSfto6Vo) but will probably be better since a series has more time to deliver a nuanced story. Especially being based on a webtoon with more meat.

gorgeous cinematography. Wow! And refreshing storytelling.

"The queer love of friends who want to be more is also the foil to the aggressively platonic bromance of Khatha and Dome, which is certainly a choice."

Thanks for this. I've only watched the 1st episode, but after reading multiple reviews, this sentence seems to poetically sum it all up.

those have romance as a strong part of their stories so they don't qualify

good to see this. I'll give her another shot. Saw her acting years ago and thought the best role she had was in Dream High but couldn't vibe with her roles after that. But I'll give her another shot since several have mentioned the notable improvement. thanks.

I think Circle should be on the list. It was very original and fresh, imo

Are we able to buy/rent this movie on amazon, google or itunes?

I love kimchi and bibimbap!!! MMMM. I definitely wanna try packaged snacks too, so I hope to win!

To watch in Japanese with Chinese subs

Hilarious! Plenty of laugh out loud moments in this short movie

I watched it on youtube, but it's not there anymore. There are several scenes deleted from the version released in China, so I would recommend skipping that one if you have the option. It doesn't really make much sense unless you know the story in advance. Otherwise, find the one that says "uncut" and you'll be happy you did.

the Uncut version of part 2 makes the story make more sense. It also made Xie Yan more likeable. I recommend watching that version if given the option.
