I wish they'd written a show that was funny, instead of a show that was silly. Sound effects are completely overdone. Plus, show is boring. Boring and silly is not a winning combination.

Yoon Dope is positioned in the drama as the dysfunctional family healer. Her job has been to defrost Taekyung, decranky Grandmother, install a backbone in her mother-in-law, provide a communication bridge for Taekyung's sisters, and that's just Taekyung's family. So far, that's been her only job, so if she meets those demands in the drama, her entire role is fulfilled. So, of course, we viewers get handed a gigantic pile of noble idiocy.

After I watch Sunday's episode, I have to check in here to find out if what I'm thinking is complete lunacy. And, nope! You have no idea how happy it makes me that people are just as cross as I am at the direction this show has taken. Also. Jang Se Jin? Still a bitch.

This show needed a better story, and to be shorter. And tighter. And less draggy. Just watch something else.

That matte lipstick trend . . . oy. Everyone looks like they need a couple coats of chapstick. Also, I wish they'd done more with the chemistry between the ML and FL, because that was the best part for me.

Okay. But I hope the "genius boxer" actually looks even a little like a boxer.

Coming to Netflix US. They'll roll it out one or two episodes per week. Netflix also picked up "Hidden Love", which will wrap up there on the same day the last episode airs.

You really do have a talent for Shakespearean insults. I can't remember from day to day how many fingers I have, but I remember you.

Looks absolutely zany. Can't wait.

Seems quite uncommon for a Cdrama remake of a Lakorn. I really like the ML. Looking forward to this!

I am defending, generally, writers who produce content that is not in line with our values and judgments, and pushing back specifically against your statement that writers who produce content you don't approve of are mentally and morally "not right".

I

Not an expert in Japanese culture, so I can't provide specific information about that, except to say that all writers reflect the rules or laws and customs of their environment. Writing is a solitary activity, usually (except for entertainment/script writers, who may write as individuals in a group), but even so, a Japanese writer is going to reflect Japanese culture, and not, say, the culture of Pakistan.

I don't know what you mean by "fan of this".

I was responding to your sentence: "Something is mentally and morally not right with writers who produce this."

Entertainment writers aren't writing in a cultural vacuum, devoid of any awareness of the zeitgeist of their time.

If they're writing morally ambiguous material, it's because they think there's an audience for it.

This drama was two things I find unforgivable: 1) pointless and 2) boring. Skip this. Trust me.

He's the lead in "Beautiful Gong Shim", which was quite a good romantic comedy. He's been in several other rom coms and romantic dramas.

Well, damn. It seems impossible, but I'm getting attached to . . . halmeoni. I think she'll turn out to be one of my favorite characters, in spite of wanting her dead in the first 6 episodes. Isn't that weird?

Came to write the same thing.

Interesting story, and it's moving right along. The FL is annoying af though--angsty, fragile, hot headed--the kind of character, the more exposure you get, the more you want to dunk her in a bucket. For sure, she's been treated badly in the past, and that's why she's about as stable as a wind sock in high winds, but I hope she settles down or Ima look for that bucket.

I couldn't agree more. Well said.
