Well, in my view, after two episodes, Imitation is very, very good. In episode 1 we saw the dark side of the industry. In episode 2, we were introduced to the more aspirational and uplifting side which was a nice contrast.
What a clever and intelligent little show. This is a hidden gem. and may be the sleeper of the year. I can;t wait…
Hello, phl, I am enjoying this show very much. We are getting to see some things that you don’t see see in many other shows including great little details here and there. Even the mystery side to the story is well done. Even the coroner aspects and requirements are done well. I think that as far as villains go, the chief eunuch is right up there with the best. He is a complex, considered and emotionally reactive baddie all at the same time!
I am glad you appreciate his smile. It’s only in certain situations where I find it a bit much. At other times it suits. In Eps 3 and 4 the smile worked for me. Perhaps I am finding it infectious too :-)
Superb acting by Lee Je Hoon re episode 10. Esom’s a great contrast - very natural, matter of fact, rational and a steady presence in this show and I like that.
Perhaps an unpopular opinion but I feel like CTJ is not meant for these roles at all,he just doesn't look the…
Yes, I think you have hit the nail right on the head re CTJ. That’s interesting your observation re Exit. I describe it as good heart in your mouth entertainment.
After 16 episodes: this show is a pure delight. I find the whole approach refreshing. I think I might even like this more than the Sword and the Brocade.
Today, I felt, with ep 9, Taxi Diver finally hit its stride! Overall, show is good storytelling. Not easy to watch at times, but the performances are excellent.
Well, I enjoyed episode 3. The first two eps were very up and down, though. CSY is playing her role well so far. I find CTJ a little wooden, but he has his moments. HCS is very good - very adept at how he portrays charming one moment and demon the next. HJA is okay. In fact, I hope we get to see her shine a bit more.
Did I enjoy ep 13? - no! Do I have my fingers crossed, hoping for the earlier magic of this show to return? - yes! Normally, I would have dropped it, but for some reason, I have to keep going on with it :-)
Thank you for the link - awesome. One of my favourite bands: Blood Sweat & Tears did a great version of this (called:…
Thank you for such an amazing compliment :-) I hope you enjoy the version by Blood Sweat & Tears once you track it down. When I read the synopsis for “Diva,” I can see why they included a nod to Erik Satie. He has always fascinated me as a composer.
i know a lot of people will say this drama is boring, but if you wait for upcoming drama to come and want see…
This drama is fabulous. It has so much going for it on all levels. Our leads relationship is so nice and heartwarming, the mums are fabulous and the secondary relationships are a good contrast.
