I dont like to encourage long shows cause eventually it feels like its too much but this show was not enough way…
Its a decade old. It cannot compete with newer dramas with high production values but given that I watched it in 2012, I rated it very highly We didn't have Squid Game and the likes then
I am about to re watch and I know it is gonna frustrate me, it has been too long, but the story is good and the…
I think the whole point of a drama is to entertain and this was entertaining. It was also one of the first Korean dramas I watched back in 2012 just after it aired. So novelty played a part in me rating it 9.5.
If you like series about doctors and lawyers, then Doctor Lawyer is two in one! But personally, I didn’t really…
Thanks for the review. Dramas are sometimes too focused on making the male lead look cool. In a ridiculous story like Doctor X it might work but it does not work in every type of drama Besides, we see male leads looking cool all the time, it gets old.
This is like the US TV series Pushing Daisies. I am just happy to see a story where the female lead is the one with the supernatural ability and hopefully, it does not turn out like Pinnochio where it is a disadvantage to her lol
Good take.This comment section is filled with sexists who pretend Lolita does not exist.They probably enjoyed…
Sexual assault does not have to be physically violent. This is the same as arguing that the sun does not exist. She said no. That makes it sexual assault There are laws. I actually studied it. You cannot agree to disagree on the law.
What is sexual assault? Sexual assault happens when someone touches another person in a sexual manner without their consent. Or when someone makes another person take part in a sexual activity with them without that person's consent. It includes unwanted kissing and sexual touching.

Sorry but I studied consent, she was assaulted. You can say its 50/50 by the kid But she was definitely assaulted by her boyfriend. You can see the Affirmative consent video on my profile page. Cheers!
To be fair, all female characters were homewreckersRika dated her married bossSaitomi went after Kanji when he…
Fair point. As a guy, I feel that Mikami chased after her Also, Mikami seemed more interested in Naoko than Saitomi if you asked me. Afterall, Naoko fueled his assault on Satomi because he believed that he lost her
Watching this was a great idea. Instead of Kamen Rider where all the female love interests get killed and where female fighters are rare, this had bulletproof female leads lol It seems even 500 bullets cannot kill them haha

True, I hold my hands up and admit it. As a guy, I also admit that I can never fathom how a woman who got raped would feel. Empathy is harder than we realize. I met a rape survivor who gave a speech at my colllege, took pictures and was all smiles but years later after learning more, I discovered that I really do not understand what she went through. Empathy is very hard. I cannot stress this hard enough. I think if you can forgive Mikami as he tried to change, it should be easier to forgive Naoko but we have been conditioned to see women as homewreckers when it takes too.. I believe we have to take a deliberate and even forced effort to go against such conditioning. I always sympathize with homewreckers because there is always another side. Just the way Mikami's family was horrible and made him into a horrible person. Naoko's family was just as bad. I didnt watch a lot of her scenes but she broke down and cried in the middle of the road
That's not true.The reverse is the normThis is shocking because it is rare.You are acting like Lolita does not…
You are contradicting yourself. The directors will not go to jail if they made something like this about a male adult and a female minor played by two adults. They are too many movies like that. Lolita the most common example. Teacher-student relationship is the most common, with a male teacher and a female student. I provided an actual R rated movie with a minor actress. Such stories are not my cup of tea but you can easily find them if you want. The world is a lot more sick than you realize. Some think Korea is conservative but actresses have committed suicide because of R rated roles they were pressurized to play: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Scarlet_Letter_(2004_film) Maybe in your country they would go to jail but not elsewhere.
Because his body stayed in the real world.
You should try Train 2020, it did the two worlds story better but Welcome 2 Life did the emotional part better

The injured version Lee Jae Sang survived and went back with his wife and kid
The real world Lee Jae sang got his girlfriend pregnant lol
I recently got addicted to Tokyo Love Story 2020. Hypocrite characters are fun.
Rika was beautifully flawed.
Buzzer Beat also look great rewatching recently after a decade or so now that I understand Japanese culture more
We didn't have Squid Game and the likes then

I intend to binge watch this and Golden Spoon later

That killed the drama. The villains/villainesses were all one dimensional
This is the same as arguing that the sun does not exist.
She said no. That makes it sexual assault
