Been digging this one so far, couldn't care less it has the similarities to other drama's: that's what cliche and tropes are for (all about that execution).
The beginning is full of good premises, some nice set up to future plot's too, let's see if they can actually deliver till the end.
Really hope this doesn't turn into a "one case per episode with a shitty linear plot in between" type of drama.
The titular show about "dangerous housewives" waded into cliche territory with the bored Gangnam housewife trope.…
My two cents:
When it comes to the relationship, the wife ends exactly like she begins: easily willing to give up on it.
You got a point there: throughout the whole drama she was missing her own past life but how willing was she to fight for it? Even when she saw her husband against all odds and alone (it takes the effort of two people to fix a relationship) trying to glue the pieces of the vase SHE threw in the wall she chose to apologize and leave. She kept that pattern to the very end, as seen on how fast she was willing to give up on him as soon as she saw him with another woman.
That's the problem with the end: he came back to a relationship that has the same major flaw that pushed said relationship to a downfall to begin with.
I'm here as well! It's a pity that one can't create groups here in MDL haha. We really need a Ji Pyung Nation…
Saw some good feedback on black and missing the other side, will be looking into those too. Now that i think about a good comedy might fit just right after this whole start up fiasco... do you have any good comedy one in mind?

I am a jack of all trades as long as genre goes, but i have been on a action/fantasy/horror mood now because of uncanny counter, mistery too... don't mind romance mixed in as long as it's is well placed. Also, saw you recommending fight for my way and i already put on my to watch list
HJP gang! (And everyone with whom i shared my frustrations over the past months) add me here! I can't find all of you through the sea of comments T.T plus, recommendations please! (doesn't need to be airing)
Let me adress some points since i liked how you're open to discuss it:The problem with NDS is that his character…
They are presented as each other antithesis early on, looking close to their personalities you can see they approach the world in opposite ways, wich goes way beyond just individualities: impulsive vs calculative, dreamer vs realist, introvert vs extrovert and so on. I don't deny the change happened, NDS didn't ended as the exactly same he started: when i said he felt short of what he could be is because even though he did changed, his growth and character arcs were poorly done, being in my opinion, anticlimactic at most (there's only so much you can do with the time given after all). Although i must say i feel like the first and second half of this drama don't communicate well with each other, wich makes any analysis foggy at best because sometimes seems like you are looking at two different narratives that lack cohesiveness.
I thought i would be way more disappointed than i am right now but i guess i just don't have the energy to spend on this drama anymore, i feel relieved this is the last episode instead. The comments sessions were cool, HJP has to be one of my favorite drama characters ever and the theories were also entertaining, may we bump in each other on a better drama.
The msgs go by so fast and don't know when those messages were posted... The drama had excellent reviews when…
Plus, the comment over the msgs makes no sense at all: that's like saying a idol fan opinion doesn't matter because they "are not in the industry". At the end of the day the costumer verdict is final, if a costumer doesn't like what it's receiving he will take his money i.e or his time to somewhere else. In this case the costumer is the audience: if a large part of the korean audience decides the last episode is not worth watching there's nothing the author, the critics or expert's of silicon valley can do at all
What does everyone think the plot twist that Suzy and Kim Seonho hinted about is??? I really am lowkey clinging…
At this point i completely dismissed said plot twist... now i leaning more on: it's was either a false flag or something overhyped that already passed by.

1- The first one to see the appeal of sailing without a map was HJP, to NDS Dal mi was just "eccentric"
2- "Ask your ancestors"
3- "I will be the first one to help you"
4- The letters.
5- "There's nothing that can change someone's mind like telling the truth"
6- "A good ball is coming your way"
7- "I don't want to be someone's else pride and joy"
8- "Trust your choice"
9- The hundred+ symbolisms.
10- DM rekindling her relationship with her mother.
11- In jae.
And... i am pretty sure i am forgetting things '-'
