The one thing that I think a lot of people don't understand here is that romance is not the main genre or theme;…
If the genre is not romance, they should not put some scenes that emphasize it. It's very contradictory. When they say it's a business and revenge drama, it doesn't fit with what they're doing. In the first half of the series we watched two wounded people falling in love in difficult circumstances, so what were we watching and what was it for?
And yes, the genre can be just business and revenge, but even if it is, it has to be exciting. In general, since most historical dramas deal with these themes, it is not interesting after a while. We always watch these themes in the series with much more romance than this. For this reason, if they are going to make a series in this genre, it should be more exciting and different. Because when you take out the scenes of the couple and the friendship between the second male and the leading male, there is nothing left to watch. Anyway, when I turn on another historical drama, I don't see anything different from this. Thank you for your comments.
Your critique sounds fair. Thanks for giving the other side. I agree with some of your thoughts, although overall,…
They certainly didn't satisfy me. If it wasn't for that little bit of romance, I wouldn't have finished this series. It could have been much better, but in the second half when I thought we would see more romance, we saw more business life. Also, the action and excitement part was very insufficient. Even their conflict was very weak between the business parts. I couldn't get excited while watching.

Thank you. That part is well done, but there are much better ones. For the last year, I've been watching a lot of historical female-centered business or investigation-style dramas. They usually do these parts well, yes, but it's always the same thing. I would have liked to see a nice couple in this drama, at least because of the introduction and the first half. Because there is romance in the genre, and reflecting it with only a few scenes for 40 episodes is not satisfying enough. They were not very spectacular scenes anyway. What I mean here is not a couple holding hands and kissing 24/7. It would be very boring in the same way. What I'm talking about is being able to feel that love even in separation and conflict and in the work environment, and to be satisfied with it. And for that to happen, the leads need to interact first, not spend most of the series in separate scenes pursuing business or revenge.
I'm sorry, but it's definitely not a masterpiece. Not even close. The first half was unnecessary and overly violent. What the male lead did to the girl was exaggerated. Just when it was getting good, the breakup started for ridiculous reasons. As if insulting the intelligence of the female lead, they again put an insecurity against her beloved. I skipped those parts anyway. After 28, it started to get better, but we only watched a business life. That's in all historical series, I'm bored of watching the same things. We understand that you are good at business and revenge investigation themes, but if you put romance into the work, don't forget to process it. Even though the couple was a good match, they couldn't make the most of it. I didn't feel the romance much. I watched the next episodes only because I wondered how they would react when they learned about the man's illness, I wondered how they would handle that part. And of course to watch his friendship with the other man. They tied the finale with an unnecessary drama. I don't know why they continue to be so pessimistic if they manage to find solutions to everything. If you're going to put drama, don't make such a cursory ending. You need a feeling, not a huge void. The woman Chu shi jiu was also antipathetic from the beginning to almost the end, but for some reason she turned into a good angel at the end. I'm sorry but it didn't suit her type, her voice or her character. His scenes were too contrived. And they're such good friends. Contrived. It was not beautiful. It was a boring show for both leads. Some tiny scenes made me finish it, but you don't need to watch 40 episodes for that.
Amazing, amazing, amazing, amazing. I laughed from the beginning to the end. The music, the retro vibe, the cases, the comedy, the sentimentality, the acting, the story, the direction, the crazy team, the charismatic chief inspector, it was a great production. Kim Dong Wook, you did not disappoint me again. I hope you continue like this. I need season 2 with this great team. It should definitely be continued, it has become one of the great series that can be watched every week. It was the only show that made me release happiness hormones these days. I hope the producers hear our voices. Congratulations to all of you.👏 👏 👏
I don't understand your question. I'm talking about the plot of the drama. The plot of the drama is more similar to the famous movie Taken ( producer: Luc Besson), not Misaeng .
That's not what the drama is about. There are two different subjects, which one is true? It's more like the Liam Neeson movie 96 hours and it's definitely not a series of slice of life.
Manager Kim: Single father, company manager, and former black-ops member, Mr. Kim lived an ordinary life until his daughter, Min Ji, went missing. After discovering his daughter could be dead, Mr. Kim turns merciless and sets out for information. He will rescue his daughter by any means necessary, even if it means destroying everything and everyone standing in his path.
It definitely deserves more attention and ratings. I saved up and started and watched 8 episodes in one breath without getting bored and with a lot of laughter. Kim Dong Wook made the right choice again. I hope he continues like this. Fighting the whole team. (Y)
The series started well, but I can't say that it continued like that. It went out of orbit unnecessarily. They made me feel neither love nor brotherhood. In fact, since they made the brother character an unnecessary thorn for 10-12 episodes, they also hindered the pleasure of watching. I wanted to go inside the show and hit him in the middle of his precious grinning mouth. If you're going to make the brother a sacrificial person, let's watch brotherhood properly. Self-contradictory nonsense. How beautiful, there is a second beautiful girl, put two beautiful loves in the center. They said to address trauma issues, but the story is not effective. A brother and a hairy young doctor were the annoying elements of the series. It was nice that the girl didn't change her address but unfortunately they wasted it. I also came across another current one I've been watching lately, which is in fashion now.......
SPO.................................................................................... The female lead's father is murdered by the psycho father of his best childhood girlfriend. I wonder if these writers sit in the same cafe and write their scripts? It's okay if I see similar details at different times, but it takes effort to make it coincide with the same time. Then you pay attention even if you don't want to. Taptapeee..
In short, the biggest element that made me watch the series was the charisma and character of Jae joong that I missed. And all his scenes in general. Of course, thanks to his character, the element of curiosity survived until the end. I especially liked it more in the scenes where he got angry. But only this.
I think you didn't understand, I already said I can't tolerate this kind of men. For me, forgiving so easily makes the character passive. This is my opinion, what is too little for you is too much for me. I don't like this kind of female character and I don't like this kind of male character who tolerates it, that's it. I gave my opinion, I don't have to prove anything to you. Thank you for your last sentence.
Unfortunately, I think she is too childish at this age if she doesn't know the consequences of her actions. Yes, at that time it was a crime. There would have been a 1-year prison sentence if he hadn't agreed to the conditions. It's not just a temporary imprisonment for a small quarrel. Even if it's not a punishment, it's a big inconvenience to get rid of. And her behavior is that of a scheming bad lead. It's too repulsive. Just because she regrets what she's done doesn't mean it's not costly. And the way she's acted so far isn't pretty either. Yes, if she was a sassy girl she would have added color, but so far she has only acted like a spoiled girl. I'm sorry but she doesn't strike me as sympathetic at all. Also, I can take it, but the male lead needs to show enough seriousness. A man who softens easily and takes little or no attitude unfortunately has no charm. I've put it on hold for now, maybe I'll try to continue it again later. Because in all the Chinese dramas I've been binge-watching right now, I'm running out of patience because I've seen female intrigue or similar intrigue and too soft, stupid men in love.
Yes, the lead girl there annoyed me in a similar way. She was still arrogant when she was in an unfair situation and he was like a stupid lover with no pride. The leading girl here is even worse. She came into his life like a boss and not only that, she blamed her own crime on him and put him in jail and he had to give up a lot of things because of that but she is a spoiled brat who doesn't realize the extent of her crime. And she is upset. He is still being stupid and thinking about her and they are not even that close. He is not the one who should step back. He needs to have a little bit of pride.
And yes, the genre can be just business and revenge, but even if it is, it has to be exciting. In general, since most historical dramas deal with these themes, it is not interesting after a while. We always watch these themes in the series with much more romance than this. For this reason, if they are going to make a series in this genre, it should be more exciting and different.
