I disagree about forgiveness. There are unforgivable things which parents can do to a child. Instead of forgiving one can become indifferent to them. That's a long process, going through phases of despair, anger, grief...but only when you really worked through all of these can you become indifferent to a person who abused you over a long time as a child. And only then this person plays NO role in your life anymore. And only then can someone lead a different, happy life being fully aware of why that is possible. Forgiveness is not needed for that, indifference is. Forgiveness sounds so much better and people are often tempted to say they forgive, because that is the way society applauds you because it SOUNDS so wonderful and oh so generous, but I say in 90% of such severe cases it's a lie, a lie to oneself mostly and if one repeats it long enough and gets enough applause for it one might believe it after a while but it's still not true.

not the only problem with Disney...I cancelled my subscription after a month because for K-content they only offer English subtitles for the hearing impaired, so I have a ton of steady extra text ('music plaining, rain falling, a door closing, a screetching sound etc.) and it just bothers me too much that I can't choose a version without this. They are comparably expensive, yet they can't provide normal English subtitles - nope for me.

Tssss...what AI nonsense is that - and bad AI at that 😆...oh, and who is the male lead actor who depicts ' heartfelt love and resilience with HIS portayal' ? If you use AI, at least check it for major mistakes it makes...and another thing: this whole 'review' is just a huge addition of cliche phrases, it's not even connected to this actual drama and could be used for any other drama with any tragic storyline, no matter which - what utter horse dung

As someone with a legal background I can asure you, in this case the legal term of murder does not apply. It was a PLAN of murder, but the concrete situation was self-defense. A good defense lawyer would have followed this line only.

I'm not your bro oO
I don't care about box office whatever. MY opinion is, these remakes are bad. But thst's probably a matter of age, and as you call me bro, you are very young and haven't had the experience of the original movies back at that time.

yes of course I know Henry Cavill and Russell Crowe, I mean he was Gladiator, (and they even did a bad remake of THAT movie Oo). It's not about the quality of the actors at all. Doesn't matter who is cast in the remakes, there are classics that should not be remade because they can only lose to the original.

nah, leave such classics alone please, no matter which one. I am so tired of everything that was good in the 80s and 90s gets a (always bad!) remake.

that is not her in the profile pic here? Who is that?

Oh you seem to be quite an expert about speed and impact of cars - I don't know that much to be honest. Point is they SHOWED a very string impact on that body and if that body would have been hit by such high impact, the man would have been severely injured or even dead.
Concering LYA, as I said, I don't know her from anywhere else and haven't seen her before but to me it's very obvious she had lots of b-tox and her mimics are far from normal. I don't mean her stern look,straight face etc, I mean when she is either crying, laughing or trying to show she is afraid. It just doesn't work and she looks the very same as many (not only Korean) actresses in that age group these days. They lose their mimics almost completely which is unfortunate for particularly their profession. But as I said, I understand there is tons of pressure, especially on women in that business and it's easy to talk when you are not that exposed and steadily copared either to younger other actresses or to your younger self which no one can preserve.

And you are so full of shait you actually think it's wisdom 🙄

I have only read the first and last paragraph of this very long list of negativity spread and insults. No idea why some people feel the need (and have the time!) to plaster other people's reviews with their insults and verbal diarrhea.
How about this? Watch and like whatever you want , and if you don't agree with my review, just press the littele thumbs down button and just sod off?

Someone watching a drama with a topic like drug dealing and then thinking it's the right place to morally lecture the viewers about the dangers of drugs, seriously? Here is a little hint: It's quite realistic concerning Gangnams nightclub\drugscene, and as the ML in the series rightly comments, drug dealers are not nice people they do not care about the victims of the drugs they sell,that is why they ARE drugdealers - also in reality by the way. Watching this drama does not mean someone glorifies drugs, what a nonsensical assumption. Observing that an actor quite realistically portays a drug dealer does not mean you like drug dealers. Oo If you can't cope with that topic complex just watch something else? And if you care so much about the victims of drugs why would you then have watched and liked 'breaking bad'? Because the crystal meth Walter sells there is so much better for its victims, or did you not think and care about them either like you did here? Did Walter killing his own brother-in-law not tear at your sensitive heartstrings as much then? Talking about contradiction much , my behind Oo

Ah, and thanks for calling me fangirl (doesn't fit my other reviews for dramas with Kim Young Kwang but anyways), and as I am 46, I am not referred to being a girl very often anymore 😁

yeah thanks for the answer and no reason to get so snippy. I simply don't have the time to spend 24 hours reading comments or with K-drama content, I actually have a life to attend to ;) ok Oo

just for me to know: so this is now a series with Ji Chang-wook, for the very same movie 'fabricated city' he had already done in the past, and him playing the same role again?

while I do think it's very wrong to drive under the influence because apart from yourself you do endanger others with it I do have to point out the double standards of the K-drama industry with their over the top reactions in such cases.

So this actor ( I don't know him to be honest) got caught DUI. Now he is totally erased from a current drama. At the same time in pretty much EVERY K-drama I watch or peak in, there is scenes where people, especially the main characters, get drunk, and I mean VERY drunk, and are brought home by their love interest totally out of it depicting this as something charming and sweet. Also in every K-drama there is scenes showing the typical drinking culture after work, where everyone is pretty much forced to participate, even if they don't like/drink alcohol but they have to because otherwise they'd be considered social outcasts. And so on.

So pretty much every drama promotes drinking large amounts of alcohol all the time, yet when any actor or singer is caught (and yes, when people are very drunk in reality, the are not reasonable and they don't walk home but still take their vehicles, it's not like in the dramas that they get carried home by a friend all the time), they are treated like hardened crimimals.

If it's such a grave sin to be caught drunk it's quite ridiculous to steadily promote drinking to that level in the dramas at the same time.

well, I at least couldn't resist now to fast forward through the remaining episodes after what you said. And yes, it was the right decision to drop it after ep. 7. I just flicked through the remaining episodes for 15 minutes and it all got so much worse. I don't know why they stretched this to 15 episodes. They could have ended it in 10 easily.
I think Sang-yeon's character is so extremely toxic in the later episodes and also very infantile actually. How believable is it alltogether that two women, both professionally successful and living a big city life still only focus on what was their teenage crush? It seemed to me there were no other men in their lives in between? I don't buy it. And it also makes these two women look childish and immature.

It didn't make sense to me either that these two even kept in contact after all Sang-yeon had done at some point. She was alomost psychopath and someone to steer clear from at all costs.
I also found it weird that the ML seemed someone dumb and always passive and overly polite. No matter what both women did and how strange they acted towards him, he was always apologetic, naive and he didn't make any kind of decisions for himself. I also find that unbelievable - and again, someone who is considered especially attractive and living a city life? I am very sure he would not wait for years like a school kid for his first very short crush he had as a student.

As for the last episodes... well, somehow since 'crashlanding on you' there seems to be a tendency to include Switzerland in dramas ;) (There is tons of tourists coming to the places shown in that drama every year btw) . I've lived in Switzerland now for three years and just can say this accompanied suicide is not really a topic in Switzerland itself, but is sure is a topic in other countries. That said I have to agree that this show now really advertised this procedure step by step, plushing it up with wonderful images of Swiss nature, mountains and greenery - no idea why they did that as it almost seemed like a holiday ad Oo
And these last scenes didn't even touch me at all as I found the whole relationship between these two women totally artifical and non-believable.
Very sad as I really like Kim Go-eun a lot but that was a stark fail for me altogether.

well that is a really generous and nice gesture for sure, I bet the group of fans couldn't believe their luck and enjoyed every bite and sip of the meal =)

if you should keep watching the it to the end, let me know if at least the rest was worth it

Hello dear Lucy,

honestly, I can't remember the details of 'boys don't cry to that extent anymore, I only saw the movie once in 1999 when I was only 20 myself. But I do remember that it was a very crass movie depicting very brutal things and as it was based on a true story I was touched by the horror of it for sure.

As for 'you and everything else' I just can say I was reeeeally annoyed yesterday night, as they built up a very strong climax concerning the dead brother, and revealing who his 'gilrfriend' was... they drag it on for what feels like forever, I was on the edge of my seat thinking 'who is it fgs?' - and then this? As it was late I even woke my husband because I uttered quite loudly what kind of horsedung is this? I was even angry staying up so late only to find this ridiculous and totally unfitting plot twist, just for the sake of it being in there somehow.

And I am disappointed too as for once in a while it was a serious storyline, without the often typical sequences of slapstick even in otherwise serious storylines, it was very good young actresses in the first few episodes, everything was really well done until ep. 7.
Sad, but yeah, I too hope this intentional adding of this specific plot quite everywhere will fade out soon and better things will come.

ah, thank you! And NOW I know where I know her from, she played the little yoyo-boy-god in 'King-eternal monarch' - Thanks =)

can someone tell me who the really good young actress is who plays the young version of Ryu Eun Jung? She is not listed in the actors list here, also not on other websites, who is she?
