Title The Scandal
Not me stumbling on a YT clip of JCW looking all domineering playboy in historical garb — acting all hard manipulative…
Yes, let's support Chani and SF9! Listen to the their comeback songs and albums from this year
- Love Comes Slowly (About Love)

This is only my third JCW drama, the other two were comedies and I also dropped Healer after ep.2-3. And I can say I prefer him in this mature dramatic role over the other three.

You can buy awards for any role if you have connections, hype and desire to have it. And people will believe it's worth it. He's not chasing awards or he would already have them.

wow, i haven't started this but the low rating is kinda scaring me a little....
It's dialogue heavy and some people were bored to listen. But it's interesting if you pay attention, and pansori is the cherry on top. A lot of fascinating Korean cultural references.

Do they censor the Nc scences in south korea or broadcast?I'm bitter about the way they censor the Nc scences…
It's on Netflix, not on TV, available everywhere, no censorship. Prosecutor's Proposal has two versions, the uncensored one is locked for paid subscribers on official platform. But people uploading full versions for free later elsewhere.

Ep.7 the shower? It doesn't show anything besides shoulders. Nothing missed.

Don't remember Glenn Close having those scenes. There are scenes with Uma Thurman and Michelle Pfeiffer.

They have to spend hours in the make-up chair. Some of my favourite actors talked about it, how it's a burden and affects their auditions, because it's easier to cast someone who has no tattoos. They decided to remove theirs.

I know. And can be erased with CGI. But if an actor has a choice to use a double and avoid getting naked they using it. And body double actors get a job.

Title The Scandal
If you need to read a book in order to fully understand a drama then the screenwriting and directing were failures.
But it's an adaptation and a remake of another adaptation,. And it is different enough to be on its own if you pay attention and not watching on a 2x speed while looking at your phone like many said they did in their reviews.

It was known that it's based on the book and people had enough time to get familiar with the basic summary and not asking wtf is this plot.

Close ups are his, but everything from far away where face can't be distinguished can be double or him naked from the back also. There are stand ins and doubles who look like actors twins, it's amazing, with beards and everything even harder to tell. Google Brad Pitt and the guy who works with him.

didn't they say somewhere that they used doubles or am i wrong ?
Ji Chang Wook fans said they can recognize him and it's not him. And he has a lot of tattoos that are difficult to cover, CGI and body doubles are in the credits.

But surely every show is allowed to adapt to a different interpretation even if it's based on the original story.…
the second film is by Miloš Forman, not Roman Polanski. The Colin Firth version.

Nice to see some normal reviews slowly coming in from people who read the book and notice other things besides the nude scenes. There are many actors and things here that deserve appreciation.

Netflix has series about serial killers with blood, sex and violence. They can't show it on TV, but streaming can show anything. This is why Scandal is on streaming.

Really? I'm surprised seeing people calling it crazy, dirty porn, when it's nothing compared to the films and shows that are out there, including Asian films.

What is shocking about female breasts and some light embracing for a couple of seconds? You would think they showing closeups of fluids and insides of body parts in details based on how exaggerated people's reactions are.

There are no kissing scenes between Valmont and Madame de Merteuil. Only seductive, manipulative talks and some face touching. 'Cruel Intentions'' have kissing scene between her and Cecile, but not Valmont.

She doesn't need to show skin.

The French series ''Merteuil'' has sex scenes, but it shows Madame de Merteuil backstory from the beginning

I guess there's no hope that the series will inspire people to read ''Dangerous Liaisons'' and fill the blanks. This was clearly made for people who read the book or know this story and don't need to be explained why it is the way it is.
