Unfortunately only 13 episodes and i just finished it!!!!!!! This should have a season 2!!!!
I agree. They need a S2 stat! I enjoyed this twisty windy story even without any romance. Was kind of shipping the FL with the police lieutenant. He would need to come back to make me happy. :)
I am enjoying this drama and really getting a kick out of Yi Seo. :) One of the things I'm grateful for is the inclusion of Kim To Ni. I live in a place with a great deal of diversity, and it's one of the things I miss in Asian dramas so I'm pleased to see Itaewon Class mix things up a little. And bravo for including a transgender character. I love the sweet chef, but miss her gray hair.
I'm looking forward to how things shake out in the end of this drama and seeing who lands on top. I'm rooting for the Little Brother to do well and curious to see if Yi Seo ends up running for President of the country. ;)
On my previous comment I forgot to add-Thank you for a beautifully written and "illustrated" article and for the chance to celebrate strong and more well-rounded female characters. :)
I have watched three of those dramas because of a friend with impeccable taste. ;) And I agree with the characters you mentioned. I still have a couple more to watch and look forward to them.
When I first started watching Kdramas I almost quit because I watched some of the older ones and the women were for the most part helpless doormats that were made to suffer. Of course their long suffering and kind attitudes won over the cold male leads and completely changed them. uh-huh. Fortunately, they are starting to write more well-rounded FLs. The stony faced or abusive MLs aren't as prevalent either. One can only hope we are headed in the right direction.
I could handle the sad ending, didn’t like it, but could have come to terms with it. The parts that I hated were the WTF doppelgänger and the bizarre final conversation with Sun Bo. The production values were the highest of the History series but for me they dropped the ball in the storytelling near the end.
I agree. The acting and music were great but the storyline left something to be desired. And I did not like the ending. I haven’t rated it because I have a couple of episodes I need to go back and watch. I was thinking 7-7.5 just because I love the leads so much, but I get where your score comes from totally.
Jung Hae In is such a sweet puppy and it was a delightful ride following him and his friends exploring NYC and Niagara Falls. He and his friends shared a nice dynamic as they discovered new places and some new things about themselves. :)
A lovely, heartwarming drama. The biggest thing I would fix is the sweet male lead's suits. They were too big on him and made him look even younger. :)
+ second episode and the [possible] second lead syndrome hit me like a friggin bus!+ fifth episode and I want…
I can't think of any place less I'd rather be than feeling like someone's second choice or that I'm not worthy to be picked without the back and forth-both Mother's and Son's stories. I kept yelling at Jom, "run, boy, run!" and Kelly the same thing, "run, girl, run!"
Taew never smiled at Jom like she did everyone else and treated him like he was something stuck to the bottom of her shoe most of the time. I couldn't invest in this romance.
The son's story was much the same. He flaunts his other gf in front of Kelly and lets her know he's having trouble choosing between the two. Let me make that real easy for you buddy. When a guy is practically doing a coin toss to choose, that's not a sign of love and devotion. Girl get out of there!
I loved Mr Sunshine and Prison Playbook. I really liked When The Camellia Blooms, Live, and My Country. Netflix is the top place I watch dramas so I’m happy they keep adding more Kdramas. It’s a Cdrama but Eternal Love was my first Asian Drama and I watched it on Netflix. It’s what started this lovely addiction. :) Netflix is also where I’ve had access to Taiwanese and Thai dramas. Netflix may not be perfect but I’m thankful for it.
