Unidentifiable

I often miss the dramas that are dropped in a single day. I much prefer the slower release schedule, as it gives me enough time to discover a drama as it airs. Also, the pacing is better than the ones designed to drop in a day - those netflix shows are basically long movies broken up into hour-long blocks (but with worse writing).

I hadn't watched it yet.

Yeah that transition was good at the start

Yes, it seems to be restricted for most. It's available on Viki for most of the world.

I love Knight Flower

I'm on episode 6 now and this drama keeps introducing new characters and before I get a chance it figure out their relevance to the story, it expects me to care about them. But I don't.

Yep I should've expected it. We wouldn't have a story otherwise.

Not enjoying how incompetent the police are in this drama, but what did I expect? This is the wrong genre for serious investigation writing.

There's no "might" be creepy about a 14 year old and a 19 year old. It's a crime with those ages for a reason. If she'd been 16, sure, but she was 14 and those 2 years make a huge difference. I'm very glad it didn't last.

Nah I don't believe that sort of love is possible. Love, certainly, but it's not possible to form the emotional connection that is required to be "in love" in just one moment. Attraction, sure, but not love.

I know SO many people whose relationship has an age gap of 6+ years. They are very happy, functional, respectful and completely consensual relationships. It don't believe love at first sight is an actual thing, but I will treat it as real for the sake of fiction. It would be extremely weird if she was a minor, or had just turned 18 (or legal age of consent there, not sure what it is off the top of my head) but she's a full adult. There's nothing creepy about their age.

12 episodes is more than enough to build a romance if you try. The sad thing is, if less time was spent on a childhood connection, more time could be spent on actual romance.

Her ex did that to her in the first episode.

It needs to air first, and then Netflix usually adds them approx half hour after it finishes. I think.

The old man wanted information though? I'm not sure how killing him would make that easier to get.

Yeah so regards the freezer example. Luckily they didn't actually bring that up in the court. It was just something someone they consulted used to illustrate the concept of the nocebo effect. Even though, personally, I would have concluded that the freezer was left on by accident but no one wanted to own up to that.

They then switched to concepts like hypochondria, which rang different alarm bells for me. (I've been a recipient of medical gaslighting in the past, accused of hypochondria myself, resulting in a delayed diagnosis, which prevented early intervention and resulted in a lifelong disability.) But that was more plausible, as it's a concept that gets thrown around a lot.

I found the arguments relied on emotions too much in general. But I could tolerate it as I have no background in law and have seen much, much worse logic in law dramas. This one felt positively grounded in comparison haha. But yeah if I did have experience, I would be avoiding all law dramas, as seeing things portrayed obviously inaccurately is very frustrating.

(btw I still dropped this after ep 4)

The subs are much better on Viki than Netflix imo.

The first time I watched it was Netflix and I dropped it because the dialogue felt disjointed and simplistic. I'd seen the script praised in reviews, but something was off. Take, for example, the flashback to their breakup at the start of ep 3. The same information is translated, but the phrasing in places is much smoother on Viki.

So, watching it now on Viki, even though the video quality is inconsistent and horrible. Because the subs are better. Haven't felt inclined to drop it yet this time.

I don't know, but his tag as he was wheeled away at the end of ep 1 said "Neurology"... maybe something like an aneurysm? That can cause sudden collapse, coma and death. But he woke up again and was mildly coherent so idk. I don't think it matters tbh, and the show did not mention details.

Edit: Thinking about it... the person I know who died from that had to be declared brain dead. So they would have had the time to wait for the son before turning off life support. So. Probably not that.

Ohh this was good. First episode was much better than I expected. Maybe there will be a drama this year that I actually enjoy after all.
