I think 'meh' is an understatement to be honest. Im a hardcore JCW oppa fan (note my profile gif) and I love him so much, so I can understand and appreciate his need to not make himself into a cliche action star/actor (even though he does it SO well). But his recent scripts deserve more scrutiny before selection, thats for sure.
I don't know about the show, but I would most definitely recommend watching it on a website like kissasian, simply to laugh out loud at the hilarious comments on every single episode!!! BUT in all fairness, this was exactly what I expected, maybe a tad bit better.
Being obsessed with all things Sherlock (BBC Sherlock, RDJ version, Meitantei Conan to name a few), this is the latest thing that I've seen, and I LOVED it. The show really has a flavour of its own, and is able to sustain the gentle mystery theme throughout, and I loved the intros, and specially the restaurant murder in episode 9, the cast looked so damn good in formal wear. Also loved the cast and the engaging plot and also the 'Wakamiya-chan' cuteness from Shishio. Recommend to see a different type of Sherlock which is just as entertaining.
Ive seen all of his shows, ALL OF THEM to prove my loyalty haha. And K2 is a damn treat, I will never get over how he was in that show tbh, JCW was absolutely phenomenal I agree. I loved Kim Young Dae in Extraordinary You!!! That show had really cute actors. And I will definitely see Cheat On Me...! Also agree totally about NJH's smile, it's so cute, he's boyish no matter what he does, and I agree that he does have an innocent demeanor, both on and off screen in interviews etc., he's always shy blushing cute and adorable even if he's built too look like a sex god!!! Ahh I love him haha
YES so true about JCW, I've seen all of his shows as well, started watching Kdrama in 2018 with his show Suspicious Partners, but his latest script choices have been a bit eccentric to say the least, so I didn't recommend those. And Nam Joo Hyuk, that man is just gorgeous. He is also absolutely gorgeous and so innocent and pure and funny and genuine and unassuming in Start-Up, and I just loved it. The ost, the visuals, the acting, the story of two people growing together and making a name for themselves and sharing their success is so good, love everything about that show. And NJH and Bae Suzy look so damn good together.
