If only they had decent voice actors. I'm a native English speaker and I could not understand about a third of…
Had that issue with Boss & Me, when scenes were supposedly in England with no native English speakers, at one point I had to put the subtitles on to understand the English scenes lol Such a strong assuming Eastern European accent.
Only just heard who she is and read below (I know him from the awesome The Beauty Inside). So I googled her and read about half the text and yes it was immature to release them but seriously you can go by what's in the texts, but she literally implies multiple times she knows he's cheating without saying it in those words, he never denies it and continues doing it, resulting in her possessive behaviour in later texts. If I was married to a woman who I thought was cheating on me I would start acting that way, "going to work drinks" and "to female colleagues' apartments alone" etc.
Edit- Finished reading yep she rinsed a cheater, so he wanted to be married yet act single so she got paid end off both are not nice but still none of us really know the truth.
Obviously I don't know them (or a fan of either) and can only make a decision on the texts I have read and it seems he was more interested in having fun than being married.
I am struggling to watch this I am almost finished with episode 5, but Mi Eun's actions were annoying me, she marries someone while 2ML is in the hospital, almost leading to his suicide, yet has been helping his career. So I assumed she had been forced into the marriage so I googled it and I was right didn't find out why, whether she had previously dated Seung Jae and he was obsessed, but the why doesn't matter it's that I know that after it is revealed she doesn't divorce him or get back with Woon Gwang who she still loves. So Woon Gwang gets screwed again.
Fantastic show None of the characters are really likable even the ML.- ML was willing to keep FL in a coma, but…
Just remembered the scene when the ML partially blames the rape/attempted murder victim for what happened to her for going to the actors room, I mean what the actual fu*k. Real hero he is.
Fantastic show None of the characters are really likable even the ML. - ML was willing to keep FL in a coma, but he only saved her when Do Joon backed out of sending his sister to America to be cured. - Do Joon obviously is evil for what he did, but when he was younger he protected his sister, and he got messed up along the way. --Chae Yeong WTF Her father basically killed her lover by destroying his family business resulting in his suicide, and then she aborted the baby so that she would marry Do Joon. She is also aware that Yeo Jin is being held prisoner in a coma and was planning on putting in one herself to control the company, then as soon as Yeo Jin is out and Do Joon is dead she is all I miss him I should have been better to him, then plans to murder Seo Jin. - Seo Jin is probably in my mind the most innocent, she was born into the viper's nest, lost her mother at a young age, and was raised to be spoilt and ruthless to takeover the company, then her brother, love of her life and his father, conspire to seduce and set her up so she loses the company, only for her brother to try and kill her and her ass of a boyfriend when he is betrayed, Then she's kept in a coma (waking) for years, gets out tries to get revenge (understandably I mean I thought she was a little soft on them personally) but then everyone and their mothers was still ( and even before she was out of the coma) trying to either control her, kill her or put her back in the coma or have her committed. So she had very good reasons to behave the way she did,
Great show. I watched it all in less than 2 days. /101 - The random comments about Si Young's hair, just why she looks amazing and she is playing a doctor and 2nd-year resident at that, They work like 14 - 16 hours a day, and they don't have time to do their hair, I work in a hospital and see doctors every day the female doctors here look like models in comparison. 2 - Comments about her crying, I personally get it her father falls off a mountain then he makes her let go, but he survives and is in a coma for a year and she blames herself, then she falls for ML who is obviously unavailable for obvious reasons. 3 - Comments about her being treated badly by the ML, she really isn't he is straight up with her and tells her that he could die literally at any minute and he doesn't want to put her through that, if anything he is being selfless to point of isolating himself to avoiding harming her. (Obviously, that happens because he ignores but I understand why he does it). 4 - Am I the only one who thinks there may be a chance he never killed the killer, I had the impression he just took the blame to cover for the mother.
Other than that fantastic show no stupid love triangles, no over-elaborate plot twists, and Minimal romance but it's there. Solid 9.5/10
New to Kdramas this May (as well as Chinese and Taiwanese not as many). I finished about 35 and am partway through another 15. So far I have only watched 6 on your list "Healer" & "My Lover is from another star" are both fantastic I think I gave 9.5 out of 10 for both, but my favourite so far and I have watched it three times since May is "The beauty inside" Seo Hyun Jin was amazing am working my way through her work now "Why Her" fantastic as well. one that I never saw on your list which I loved was "That Winter, the Wind Blows"
it's because the asian entertainment industry relies heavily on the parasocial aspect of the relationship with…
1st comment you made made me think you disagreed with me and Westerns shouldn't have opinions on toxic fans & the industry but your 2nd comment fully agrees with although much more clearly than I put it.
The way characters and plot were written is just so endearing and fulfilling. Especially the badass Yi Seo and…
Am only 2 episodes in and have a strong dislike of Soo Ah she was instantly willing to testify against Sae Roy, even before Daehee said what he wanted for the money for school, then she tells Saeroy she won't be with him unless he is rich, and although I'm not up to it yet she actually works for Daehee, she seems very transactional, money-centric person, true my opinion may change but as I know she whistle blows, in the end, sounds like she grows a conscience, And doesn't deserve happiness with Saeroy. Will have to see if I still think that at the end.
What happened to this poor girl makes me sick (very new to Korean TV) nothing ever happened to the rapists, this was 2009 there must be evidence oh there was and it got covered up I even question the suicide she was reportedly happy days before due to finally escaping (the prospect of) that agency. Did the sister get paid off to lie they had received cash later parents died in 1999 they were probably desperate explains how she got in the situation and it isn't difficult for rich and powerful men to get away with it, one on the list his wife was a prosecutors as well as evidence went missing and it came out in 2019 police had been threatened? If it was all true I read she was with that agency for barely a year 31 men known men named not counting repeat offenders she had been drugged and raped pretty much on a weekly basis for a year (and there will be others) including men from the TV show that was her big break which isn't even a leading role so had to suffer that indignity of seeing them and following orders.
If it did happen which am certain it did from the stuff I've read or watched and the fact this isn't the only case I came across like this the even if it was suicide I would hold each man accountable for her death each rape she suffered was tightening the noose they in my eyes should be held culpable and charged for at least manslaughter or something the laws need to account for situations like this that lead to suicides.
Hello, just verifying.. so it was confirmed that Anxin was the stepfather biological daughter?
If I am honest i'm not 100% sure, Am 99% sure the stepmother swapped the samples as she worked at the lab back then, I may have missed something confirming it but it was heavily implied that was what happened. But i had checked out by then and watched it for the sake of finishing it. I felt a lot of things that happened where never completely explained what the motivation was, I guess like I did make it up yourself.

Unsure if I want to finish it

Not sure if that makes sense as I was rambling
But i had checked out by then and watched it for the sake of finishing it.
I felt a lot of things that happened where never completely explained what the motivation was, I guess like I did make it up yourself.
Anyway I am just starting this do the main characters at least get a happy ending?
Edit - never found a link further down the comments
