I doubt this is going to be only one season. I have also heard that Money Heist was supposed to be only 2 seasons,…
Let's see how things goes. But my gut feel is that they will take out a lot of stuff, condense this show into 1 season (just like how they condense Designated Survivor, Suits, etc). Most likely they will have to exercise some kind of creative change to make it more Korean. I enjoyed the 2nd half of the Money Heist because I like the character development
slightly better than perfect match since there are more good looking eye candy guys here. but the lead girl is as annoying as perfect match, everything she cries, it looks very unnatural as if she was laughing/smiling. The whole plot is ridiculous lol.
I have not watched the original money heist, but have heard people say that it should have ended after season…
Nah. Season 3 and 4 actually fleshed out a lot more on the characters, it was essential part of storytelling, IMO. Especially on The Professor's back story (+Berlin). Season 1 and 2 are nothing but straight out as it is, with not much depth in each characters. If that's how they gonna run it, meh...
Is this series loaded with ads? I'm a bit confused when they are having this short blurb on how a certain vitamin or supplement is good for the skin or some skin products is good, but they never really show what brand it was.
TengTeng and Li Cheng is slowly growing on me, especially after the latest episode. But I'm still meh on them. They are not the usual guys I find attractive anyway. I feel like they had too much shirtless scenes and TengTeng in particular is so skinny. I don't know. I want more of the beefier build like Xing Si, can we have more shirtless scene of him?
Yup yup. I'm not even a shipper of his other half, coz I find the other half to be well... cold. So I dont really mind him ending up with no one or anyone, as long as I can see him. He is too handsome, maybe, he can marry me instead LOL!!!
Since Korean series is notorious in making a one season show. I can't imagine how they are going to condense 5 season worth into 12 episodes. I can see it in a 24 but too short for 12, esp if they are going to do proper character storytelling.
Hated the ending. Since I hated how Doctor Foster end.
Tae Oh is despicable and I have zero sympathy on him. Everything happened because of his horrible action. Act 1 is when he ruined his family because of his infidelity. Act 2, he employed In Gyu which causes all the havoc. He never was sorry. Instead he blamed it on Sun Woo. Even to the bitter end, he refused to own it and selfishly commit suicide when he knows his son can see him.
Annoying thing in this series is the flipflopping of characters. And the worst of them all is Joon Yong. Up until the end, you have no clue what the boy actually wants. His actions don't align with his words. It was so confusing that it was hard for me to sympathize with him. I get it, he was caught up in the middle of the war between his father and mother. But why can't he set in the middle ground? Instead he either reject his mother and go with his father, or reject his father and go with his mother. He does not want them together. He also want them together. I wish they could have explored this more, because in Doctor Foster, it was a clear why the son left. And the motivation for flipflop.
The mother association was a great addition in the series, it makes it more Korean or asian.
I feel in Doctor Foster the suicide by injection is powerful and reflects a theme in that series. I wished it happened in the series. I did not really like the suicide by car of Tae Oh (altho, there was a parallel to this in Dr. Foster).
i'm not korean and cannot comment on seriousness of the matter but mr queen pulled it off. they also used real…
Because Mr Queen has no issue of sponsorship pulling it out. If sponsors are not supporting the show, then it is bound to be cancelled, simple as that. Networks don't give a damn if the show is an accurate depiction of history or whatnot, they care about profits, and if no one is watching (ratings declining) and sponsors are leaving (no money support), they will just cut out the show to avoid issues (which is netizens reaction).
Let's just say if this show causes controversy, and sponsors are still there. They will just treat the controversy as a free advertisement.
Celebrity 
Yu Xi Gu tho, and MODC has great acting and story too. Here, it feels a bit subpar so far.
