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.
Ep. 9 (53:10) musical surprise—when Kim Chang Gyu (the record store ahjussi) plays Erik Satie's Gymnopédie…
Thank you for the link - awesome. One of my favourite bands: Blood Sweat & Tears did a great version of this (called: Variations on a Theme by Erik Satie) many many years ago on their 1970 album Blood Sweat & Tears, which won the Grammy for best album of the year. So, I was thrilled when KCG played it on his guitar. In fact, I am going to dig out the vinyl album now (It was my Dad’s) and play it :-)
It was really enjoyable in the beginning, but they're both not fit for a relationship, and it didn't only show…
Sadly, I have to agree. It had so much potential and should have played out much better than this. The Mr Gu Theatre every couple of episodes is a nice touch though and has become a highlight for me. Fingers crossed for a strong finish (as I have been watching at double speed for quite a few episodes already).
Overall, I liked it. The subject matter was interesting and dealt with real concerns re the misuse of information, lack of communication and trauma. The female leads were very good.
