Unpopular opinion here... Lee Jun-gi's acting is good, but not flawless... For someone who has zero emotions,…
So quick disclaimer here, I did not read all of the responses under here because, well there were a ton and I really didn't want to LOl. So if this is addressed by someone else I apologize. Anyway, I just wanted to add a different perspective on your thoughts on his acting. Personally I don't think that it is a screwup on his acting those scenes. I think it is a hint that what people believe about him is incorrect. I don't believe his diagnosis is accurate and that those moments are a hint about it. He himself has been told so often that he is abnormal that he is very self conscious about it and goes the extreme mile to try to appear normal. I think he is very haunted by his past (who wouldn't be unless you were a Psychopath) so he tries to protect those that he loves by telling those that he feels threatened by that he doesn't actually love his wife and child. He proves that he loves both of them several times (protecting the wife without her knowing when things were gonna fall on her, burning the picture his wife instead of taking the time to try to get away). He did those without others knowing. If his diagnosis were correct he would only care to take those steps if someone was watching and he could get credit for it.
I'm sorry, but I have a different perspective on things. If I escaped a past that was as horrible as his was (and…
So I think that his diagnosis is bogus. There is no way a person with Borderline Personality Disorder would be able to keep up such a good job at taking care of others for that many years without slipping up. I think that because others have told him that he is different and that he was "diagnosed" with it, he is tries really hard to be normal (even in ways that are odd, like the videos). But he has never changed in all of the years with his care for his daughter and how he takes care of his wife, that would be impossible if the diagnosis was accurate. When he is asked if he really loves his wife I think that him saying that he doesn't is a way of protecting her so that they won't try to hurt her to get to him.
i cannot understand her feelings at all lmao i do not think i am the right person for this but i am really interested…
I'm sorry, but I have a different perspective on things. If I escaped a past that was as horrible as his was (and was innocent of crimes that others tried to endlessly pin on me), I wouldn't tell anyone of my past either. I don't give a rats ass who you are. If I didn't harm you in any way other than hiding my past, then it is none of your business about my past, unless I feel like I want to tell you. And given the way that he has been treated by those that did know about said past, that would not instill any sort of feeling of desire to share. He has proven to be a good husband and father. I think as a detective you have to be clear on what you are seeing and not get emotional. The fact that she is determined to find out exactly what he did or did not do before jumping to conclusions is what a good detective should do. If she emotionally jumped on the same bandwagon as everyone else then I would lose all respect for her. Now, if he is or is not guilty, she won't have a guilty conscious about how she did her job.
Even the synopsis said that she falls in love with the General and it's her sister that becomes the concubine...
Ah, I'm sorry. I was confused on what you meant. Well, all I can say is that everyone has their own preferences. I know that there are some that I haven't liked that everyone else was absolutely in love with. I hope you find something more along the lines of what you enjoy :)
I am only on the second episode and I have never wanted to smack the living crap out of someone so bad as I do the FL. Dear Lord, I thought she was supposed to be intelligent. But I don't think she has 2 brain cells to compete with one another. Can someone tell me if it gets any better than this? Because honestly, not sure if I can sit through another 8 episodes.
Yes, but last week they had up on their website that it was going to be today. That is what I am talking about. China and their last minute decisions. It messes with ya
i agree, but also certainly with XZ popular status right now they would want to try speed up the release of the…
God I hope so. I like them both, but when they try to give extra screen time to a popular actor/actress just to make fans happy it always seems to screw with the story line.
I'm really surprised to see how mush hate Jin Se Yeon gets..I don't like her, and she's not that great at acting,…
It's nice to see someone with that mindset. I know everyone has their own likes and dislikes (I definitely have my preferences for actors and actresses, so I get it) but I have never understood the need to go online and hate on them.
They had to cut it because the production company went over budget. Season 1 was supposed to be 8 episodes but…
Sooo, I took a step back before I responded to this just to make sure that I wasn't having a knee jerk reaction to having a crappy week and taking it out on others. But nope it is still just as patronizing as the first time I read it. I am not sure what you interpreted in my comment above but I guarantee you that You definitely put words into my mouth that I didn't even imply so let's straiten this out shall we?
First of all my comment on "Americanizing" dramas has nothing to do with what you went on your rant about. To be honest, I agree with you, I just hate people twisting my words. By using that term I simply meant creating shows that are never-ending, and when they do finally end they very often don't resolve the storylines. And by making the first season and then waiting to see if it is well received before deciding if there will be a season two is a very American thing to do (and that is where I see this leading to).
As for production, there are many ways for them to battle that without having to ruin the integrity of the way the stories are presented. For example, pre-recording has been getting more steam over the last couple of years. As for the safety of the crew, I agree that it should be the top priority as with any job.
Implying that I don't care about preserving and protecting human life really rubs me raw since that is what I do on a daily basis at work. So before you come in and jump down my throat for something I wasn't even talking about, maybe you should get some clarification first.
Just imagine if someone posted that you are ugly. Honestly, people who judge others by appearances are the ugliest people, no matter what they look like. It also makes you appear immature beyond belief. I haven't watched the show but seriously, comments like this should be banned (I am referring to both of your comments btw).
