Big Cat Unnie

Good to see you. Our TRS moots.

He lost weight after filming 'Cashero' Sang Ung is a superhero, he became bulky near the end of shooting.

His character here is thin in the early episodes, the style is a bit unusual for him ,so he seems different. It was the popular pop style during 90s which could be seen in' Star in my Heart' drama & H.O.T music videos.

It is the same 90 Gen dramas like Twenty-Five,Twenty-One & Reply 1997 .
Blooming of Kpop culture with 1st Gen Kpop like H.O.T . Also an era of economic tragedy with IMF.

Watch 'The Red Sleeve' and 'Just Between Lovers/Rain or Shine' for his emotional acting.

Based on preview,Taepoong growth is fore & front as romance is teased

There is an actual physical pain waiting for Junho's drama. I love him on Stage but, I selfishly wish there are more acting projects from him sometimes .

It is a channel drama.

Not sure. It seems like the initial plan. But Typhoon Family has been pushed to 2 weeks later ,Oct 11. Netflix may not like it to air close to TF.

Oct 11 according to CJ Ent website

Everyone assumed it because the preceding drama 'Bon App Your Majesty' would end on 28th Sep and TF would start on Oct 4th,the week after it.

Its English name is 'Typhoon Family' according to today tvN twitter Hashtag

Because of Chuseok Holiday, the initial air date has been pushed to Oct 11th.

This is the coffee truck sent to Junho by his fans. The banner is quite memorable
which is the reason why I want to share it here. (2021 Magazine shoot actually ,but the original hair color was photoshopped into highlighted hair .)

Taepoong looks like a H.O.T member (Lol) before he is roped into being a CEO of his father company . It was the era of H.O.T & 'Star in My Heart '. I wonder whether there will be any famous Pop Cultural reference in the drama.

Personally , I love 'The Red Sleeve' more.
'The Red Sleeve' focuses on Royal Life & Duties Vs Responsibilities theme meanwhile 'My Dearest' focuses on struggles of ordinary families & peasants during difficult times.

'The Red Sleeve' is based on the novel 'The Red Sleeve Cuff' by author KMG and it is about King Jeongjo & Consort Uibin Seong stories (& their love story)
Since it is based on Real Life events, some events are not explained in details in the series because all Koreans know their history well (because King Jeongjo was a great King) but it can cause confusion in non Korean fans while watching.

I had already watched 'Six Flying Dragons' 'Dong Yi' 'The Throne' 'Yi San :Wind of the Palace' before 'The Red Sleeve' (so I knew the foundation of Joseon, Yi San Great grandma ,his father Sado story, King Jeongjo's greatness as a King) so I greatly enjoyed the series.

'The Red Sleeve' received 7 Baeksang nominations and male lead Lee Junho won 'Best Actor' for his portrayal . The series got 'Best Picture' & 'Best Director' award at APAN.

So to answer your questions , based on what you love in Chinese & K dramas, one will be better than the other.
I do love to watch Royals & their struggles in the Palace. So, I ended up enjoying 'The Red Sleeve' more.
Both are great Sageuks in their own ways.

I haven't watched it yet. But from the comments,I think people hoped to see LJW vibe in 'A shop for Killers' & they were disappointed because they didn't get this.
