Once I started, I had to keep watching. This is a solid family show. It had humour, heartbreak, enjoyable romantic couples, bad guys and all happening in a villa, which is something the Koreans do well. I did zoom through the second half, but I was determined to see it through. My favourite character though was Mr Makjang 😂
Here we are at the end of episode 4. Superb performances by both Kim Hye Soo (she was fabulous in Hyena) and Kim Hae Sook (When is she not good in anything she does?). The cast overall - so good.
Show moves with such a fluid grace, that perhaps, it is a game changer re Sageuks. Show is hard and doesn’t pull any punches, then soft and endearing, the attention to detail is excellent and the costuming is a cut above 😊
Ep 2 was superb. Great acting, extremely well written, an engaging story. The interactions between a mother and her sons are so well done. As others have said: a different type of sageuk and it works.
Clearly you haven't seen all the best dramas of this year. And I think Extraordinary Attorney Woo was shot way…
It’s always interesting how we see things. I did enjoy Alchemy of Souls immensely and Little Women too - and there were some amazing moments in both these shows. However, I didn’t quite rate them as highly as the ones I mentioned, but they were very close.
Perhaps my favourite show this year is Glitch, although the Taiwanese drama Rainless Love for me in terms of how they used local mythology in a current setting was superb.
Ep8 was brilliant - the best piece of television this year - surpassing even the best scenes in Love Like a Galaxy, Be My Princess, Reset, Rainless Love in a Godless Land and Attorney Woo.
