And her super amazing facial expressions. She is so so good. Song Kang is handsome, but when PMY is in the same frame my eyes gravitate towards her.

To be honest same here. Dol dol sol sol comes to mind. That drama did such a hairpin turn. Pretty Noona had the right dark tone so I was expecting it. This one has started happy I don’t know want it to go melancholic

I also think we are being judgmental about western content too. The western dramas address so many varied topics such as income inequality, racism, trauma, gender issues. Some western dramas have such hard hitting content in a good way. Why are we throwing shade on them. Not all western dramas are soap operas or dating reality shows.

Oh my bad did not know. I did think that international fans were a bit insensitive in not understanding why Koreans may have a problem with it. sovereignty and respect for one’s own culture is a shared feeling across all countries and if Koreans were upset then we should respect that.

Same here. I love strong female leads. 🙂. Kim hye Soo is the real deal.

Yes so many of them and good ones at that. I tried to watch love and leashes but it was too campy barely made it through first 20 mins. Hope juvenile justice does justice (🙂) to its cast. I also want to watch Hometown, looks quite promising.

Not really I am watching Inventing Anna and this one. I have my eyes set on Juvenile Justice and Bridgerton 2 next fortnight. Like I said I watch one Korean and one Western. It’s a good mix, like having sweet and spicy chicken at the same time. 🙂. After that I will watch 39 🙂.

I also think this is a side effect of Korean dramas becoming more international which means having fans from very gender biased countries. These international fans are more used to seeing only women under 28 whilst male actors can be 55 even. This is why a 8 years age difference drama like snowdrop is being loved while this is being hated. And then these people troll viciously. In the past k drama were limited to fewer countries, About 7 years ago when Park Seo Joon (he was only 25 and she was 44) did a super steamy scene with a lady 19 years older than him and that scene was actually quite quite steamy and in the 1st or 2nd episode even, no one had a problem.

Thankfully there are others who support them 😊. This drama is getting a lot of love and liking . We would also have never had a show like inventing Anna with one of the leads a pregnant woman. This would not have happened even a decade ago. 😊👍. I dont know why people think song Kang is young he is 30 and as a Korean man technically even expected to endanger his health for the country and the army. So in which planet is he young.

I always seems to be hung up about a Korean drama and a western drama at the same time. I love this one and inventing Anna. Both are similar in that they feature strong female leads, strong focus on the profession (weather forecast vs. journalism), breaking prejudices. (Weather forecast - women are made of daisies and rainbows and fluff. Heaves forbid if they have sex, how horrible for them to be like this). Inventing Anna (how can a pregnant women still care about her job, she should hang her boots and only care about decorating her nursery.) needless to say I am so happy for this month of February for such great content.

I actually think mydramalist needs some moderating. Especially since there is huge downside slip in ratings if the angry ragers go on rampage for a particular drama.

Yes he is like shin se kyung. Not good actor but pleasant screen face. I mean the Rock no one ever suspected him of acting but he is a part of billion dollar franchise.

My theory is that Moon Geun Young got mentally affected by Village Achiara. It was her last drama for a long time and she fell ill afterwards. Village Achiara is also my most emotionally disturbing and nerve wracking drama. It was horrifying.

Yeah. Especially Cha Eun Woo. Lee Min Ho has been consistently bad for over a decade now.

Yes I cannot just cannot watch park shin hye. I wish someone brought Ha Ji Won back I miss her.

Park shin hye, Song hye Kyo appear to have the exact same three expressions (sad, straight face and surprised) in all their dramas. Shin Se Kyung also cannot act but she is cute and bubbly and has good screen presence. But then I guess our opinions are subjective and many will disagree with us. Similarly I never understood why Song Kang is dissed since he does act well.

I like historical stories with tragic heroines. So I watched the Duchess (Kiera Knightley) and this one almost at the same time and remember thinking about these stories for days after watching. Both the actresses were phenomenal

Exactly

Yes I have watched them all save secretary Kim which I dropped midway since I found PSJ character a jerk (really my personal opinion. I wish I liked it). She is the only actress who can pull off cute, serious, funny and sexy. Other cute actresses can never exude sex appeal but she can. And she was awesome in very tragic and serious, queen for 7 days. I am not emotional but I felt particularly affected when I watched that drama.

Exaclty PMY is playing such a cute character. She apologises and shakes hand. Plus she was totally taken in by the “I smell ice”. I have had cute friends like this who are clueless but actually brilliant. Also the way she speaks with her eyes priceless, some of the scenes where she gets teased playfully her expressions are hilarious. I thought I will never like her more after her crazy cute role in Her Private Life but this is great.
