I like the drama itself kinda more with each episode, but I hate Kim Dal more with each episode. SEriously her center of the universe mentality puts me off so much . I mean she obviously has issues, like huge ones , tbh even the supernatural weirdos there are pretty normal compared to her. She has this really annoying victim mentality. I could probably empathise with her having survivor´s guilt , not to this extent tho, however even when Li Riz woke up she only concentrated on herself and her suffering only , also when Rembrary was obviously weird she dragged him to psychiatrist (I also kinda feel like there was lot of medical codex violation happening in that episode) not so much out of concern for him, but because of herself . The only thing I found likable about her was her calling him stupid blueberry. Other than that I am also sad the singing competition had in reality only two rounds , I kind of enjoyed that show inside the show and the songs were cool. What is it with the reaper characters anyways? they are mighty fine in all dramas it seems :D
Well I don´t see the big appeal tbh, everybody knows their own sexual preferences at any stage of their life (ideally speaking) and it is them and only them that can know it in it´s complexity hence I never saw any reason to label anything or anybody , hence I was really surprised by all this commotion surrounding this dorama . People raving about grey zones and whatnot....seemed just like a bit boring couple with difference in their sexual dynamic to me past episode 3. Anyways I guess since I grew up on those now retro dramas where big finale is this grand closed-mouth, looks-like-they-are-both-dying-painful-death kiss and mere hand holding seems like mission impossible, I kinda could not seem to take the bait with the stakes here :D
I mean I knew he was a good actor, but I just love his performance in the Blooming Youth. HE truly makes me believe him all of the motions portrayed . Also let´s talk about Bong Soon and that drunken scene . That was the most epic drunken scene ever, I mean it had me go into cramps from laughing too much as well as yell "nooo" when Bong Soon interrupted. I mean does he have such a great on screen chemistry with basically any co-star or what is that ? Oh and lastly I truly appreciate that cute shape of nose and ears, don´t get me wrong he is very handsome overall , but as I have really bad face recognition skill especially in films and photos I make a habit of pointing out to myself attributes that stand out to me .
I started to get worried since I started to hit a funk with this drama (and as it is, I look forward to new episodes the most so that would suck) , but it turned around again. I mean the episode where she proudly announced she´d rather stay eunuch than marry just killed me. It was a hilarious scene all around. To be honest, I really like their dynamic and chemistry, it really makes me kinda sit on the edge of the chair waiting for at least one of them to realize and hopefully do something about it. But as this seem to be a slow burner I am trying to enjoy how cute they are as it is , since it´ll probably take forever for something romantic to happen (my bet is on the second lead couple to hit it on first at this rate ) . Some people complain about it being the same formula historic drama , but what is wrong with that? I ´d rather have maybe a similar but new good drama with similar feel to it come out every year than to resort to re- watch the oldest ones over and over again . If it works it works people. IF you get bred easily change genre , simple as that :D Also I think the chemistry here is quite unique, I really do believe the lead characters their emotions, all that smirking and bickering as well as googly eyes and they are actually getting to know each other, their secrets and learning to trust. Also I somehow liked when eunuch Soon Dol dressed p the prince, it was such a sweet scene , him trying to help her with that protective look at the same time smiling to himself. I think that is when he was a goner anyways :D I am glad this drama concentrates on these small moments as well as the usual melodramacy or just bickering as some dramas base realtionships on those two only .
He pulls that character of "doing idiotic and rush things , but being forgiven as soon as he behaves cutely " really well :D I feel like he would do well in one of those CEO from coms as he could probably get away with being a bit obnoxious prick , yet still somewhat lovable.
It is always girls pretending to be guys in these historical dramas so I was looking forward to see it the other way around. But man he´s so obviously a guy it is hilarious. I mean it had to be intentional since there are so many more androgynous actors so I just have fun with it. Well it is a enjoyable drama nevertheless :D
I mean DILF seems to sum it up pretty much now. Apart from the swoony side, I loved how he did Jekyl and Hyde, one could truly see the difference even if the clothes were the same , just shows he´s a great actor. Also I feel like the Crash landing on you role as such a great fit . He seems to be focusing on movies now, but I hope I´ll see some new drama soon as well.
reminds me of huge teddy bear , and makes me wanna hug :D I mean the profile pic here indeed was not the best choice ever. I feel like he looks better in film than in photos generally however there are definitely much better pics :D that being said it feels like his own personality shines through in every role of his , however since his personality has a nice feeling to it, it is not a bad thing. There are some great actors worldwide, who basically play "themselves" every time and are still great actors nevertheless.
Still my favorite actor , he´s quite versatile and that´s really commendable . I watched Project wolf hunting, cafe minamdang, doom at your service and his MV for My Love in quite a short span of the time and it is crazy that one person does all of that . I think he´ll be great in whichever genre, but I really do love his kinda bad boyish but still naive aura in the romance. That being said he does crazed psycho brilliantly as well. Something along the lines of Bad and Crazy would be cool as well .
While you were sleeping and snowdrop were awesome, I would like to see him in rom-com however I feel like he does not particularly enjoy that type of script. Also I kinda dig the short haircut on him :D
I did not like the shared consciousness type DID they portrayed in Bad and Crazy, however I stayed to watch because the two of them did such a great job, I will definitely watch The Worst of Evil when it comes out because I feel like he will be awesome in it as well.
I loved the action and loved the rom-com, and he´s damn cute . I mean respect for his female co-stars , I would definitely have a hard time staying rational against that smile right there .
What is it with the reaper characters anyways? they are mighty fine in all dramas it seems :D
