So the failed idol was the son of the couple held hostage in the first episode! So the girls saved his parents 's life without even knowing it ! I wasn't expecting that lol

@snow7ys I'm going to watch it anyway, but the fact that he can't act remains.

@Chrystal I can understand how you feel because I was angry too at first, because Dong Cheol didn't deserve to stay 3 years in prison, it was really unfair. But fortunately Sang Hwan learns from his mistakes, and I wanted them to be friends again because it was so sad to see Dong Cheol all alone, they were the only friends he had. I won't spoil you anything but, although I can't say I disliked Sang Hwan, I think Dong Cheol completely overshadowed him ;)

Chrystal , almost everyone here likes Dong Cheol more than the supposed "main" lead, but let me just make two small clarifications : 1. Sang Hwan decided to go at the trial at the last moment ( we will never know if he was going to testify or not) but he met Sang Mi's father injured on the street, he took him at the hospital and couldn 't make it in time. 2. Sang Hwan was in doubt not because he wanted his father to be reelected, but because of his mother. He wanted to testify but his father told him to think about his mother , if he wanted her to get well soon, he needed to be reelected. He trusted his father 's words because at the time he thought his father sincerely cared for his wife. He did it for his mother and family, not for his father's election. I felt really sorry for Dong Cheol , he didn't deserve any of that but, about Sang Hwan, it wasn't even easy for him to make a decision since there was his ill mom involved. That's why later Dong Cheol can understand and forgive him.

Aaah ok. I'll let you know if I find the full song

Is it this one, by any chance? Min 2:07

It gets worse. Well, at least for me! I quite enjoyed first episodes, but then it become boring and I lost interest .

Sorry but I'm not happy for San and Rin, I wanted all three of them together as friends, or better, just Won and Rin together like before. (yes , I know that was impossible because he become a traitor, but if all three stayed as friends from the start without both men having feeling toward the girl, things would have been different). Why put romance in everything? I didn't feel to ship any couple here, because there was no couple to ship! I didn't feel any love between a woman and a man in both cases, "just" a beautiful friendship between 3 people, and I wanted it to remain like that. I only know that they both loved her as a woman because the expressly said it, otherwise I really had no clue, and I still have no clue about San' s feelings because she has never expressed herself. I don 't know if that was because Yoona is bad at acting or because they wanted to "keep a foot in both camps " to keep us curious and, at the end , not disappoint any possible ship or fan. I'm talking about the drama of course, I haven't read the book.

If you search on Google " Various Artists- The King Loves Ost " you find the instrumental songs. If it's the same one I'm looking for, it's not included in the official album. I hope someone will upload it on youtube

I started to love Dong Cheol when he kissed his grandma on the cheek, the whole scene was so adorable! And later, when she visited him in prison , he didn't even have the courage to look into her eyes, but before leaving the room, he turned to her and gave her a kiss on the hand, although there was a glass to divide them. I cried at these scenes with his grandma, so simple, sweet and adorable ❤

OK, It's all clear now. Thanks!

It won't last long.. ;))

The drama is not unnecessarily long, it gives you time to understand the story and characters's actions better. My problem with this movie is that I didn't feel any emotional connection with the characters. While the drama gave me all the feels, the movie failed to give me any emotions.

@minyoung Not really. Just some hints.

I have one question. The Woo Jin in the photo next to painting taken in the year 2022 was one of the first 2 clones they made? Woo Jin was dead or still in coma at that time , and Circulate 3 woke up in 2037 when he met his brother and Jung Yeon. So it must be Circulate 1 or 2, he was smiling in the pic so I think he didn't have Woo Jin 's memories. ??

@GiKnoth It's not about which is better written and performed (I have my doubts about that but still, I can't say whether this was well written or not since I haven't finished watching it) , It's about my personal enjoyment. Although I usually get a lot of my personal enjoyment from quality aspects of the production, it can happens that I feel nothing while watching a top quality drama, while, on the contrary, I enjoy a bad quality drama. I liked Smile You and Ugly Alert from the very first episode. I can't say why I loved Ugly Alert and dropped MFIS, exactly because it's not about the quality of the drama but my personal enjoyment, and that's not something you can rationalize. If nothing about MFIS gives me reason to continue watching, I drop it. And still, even I liked one character (it didn't happen) , it's not enough for me to watch 52 eps. Especially if it's a family drama. If I don' t enjoy the family members and get bored at their interactions, I better watch something else. This drama gave you and a mix of emotions, okay, good for you, but as for me, it just helped me sleep. We are all different, fortunately. :)

@elvirad As I already said, I can't force myself to watch a drama I don't like just to see if I will like It in future. I barely finished first 8 episodes, I don't have time to waste. If It doesn't keep me interested from the first episodes and it doesn't get me curious about what will happen, what's the point in continue watching if not wasting my time? And I never judged it, I never said that it's a bad drama, I never judge a drama I didn't watch until the very end. If I drop a drama is because I'm personally not interested in the story or the characters and I don't want , and I don't have time to waste in watching something I don't care about.

I was looking for something funny to watch but I barely finished 1 ep, It was boring and not funny at all. Does it get funny from ep 3?

Well, to each his own ;) For me it was the right decision since I wasn't enojoying it at all.

Yes, exactly those are the few exceptions I was talking about! I liked both of them. I can say that Ugly Alert is my favorite family drama so far :D
