I truly don't understand how you were left with an impression that she wasn't great in pachinko

There's a lot disinformation going on because media outlets and influencers for some reason ignore what happened in the latest live. Garosero made a trap by changing the audio (not with AI)
In the latest live he called the informator and informator said that he reached out to lee jin ho with the recording at first, but sent him the fake one, he also didn't trust garosero at first and sent him pictures from google. When he realized he could be trusted he sent him the real recording and that recording was revealed in the live with no changes this time. The informator also told how he was attacked and showed a video where we can see his wounds and hear his voice

Since the synopsis mentions grandma's rebellious youth and grandpa's romantic era , I suppose we'll see Geum Myeong's children in the future as well?

I love that this was promoted as a love story to attract the audience but turned out to be so much more

i think the strongest part of the show were the last 4 episodes. before that, it mostly was lacking and illogical to me. especially i loved the plot twist because it was an interesting choice made by the writer and it cleared up a few things. the weakest part was everything related to the police. they were pretty much useless
but overall, it's a heavy but good show

kim min ha is doing a fantastic job as sun ja. as she says "14 years have passed", you can feel how much she has changed from the first season and you feel her grief weighing on her.
my another favorite scene in this episode is sun ja's scene with the old man where she says that she thought it would easier for solomon to live a life without being in constant danger and him saying that life is is never easy. youn yuh jung says that she struggles a lot with japanese lines yet she still delivered a beautiful performance.

during the scene where sun ja with her family escapes to the village i remembered her words in the 1st season: "for every step forward, another person would have to fall back". the guilt sunja cares because she saw so many people, from strangers to her loved ones, die while she had a long life is so heartbreaking.

and noa looking at the planes dropping off the bombs as they're driving away... kyung-hee is losing her sleep because of worrying about yoseb... it's terrifying to see people die in front of you

i was worried about how they would handle isak's fate, and they dedicated a whole episode to him. what a powerful episode. i loved that isak had a chance to talk with sunja and his boys for the last time. the last scene with isak and sunja being a direct parallel to their scene in the 1st season. and how isak's last gift to his kids was reassuring them that he loves them. it's so unfortunate that yoseb didn't get to see his brother and even attend his funeral. the last scene with the funeral being interrupted by bombs was heartbreaking.

hansu is nowhere in sight in the 80's yet so hopefully that scene will be nothing more than a kiss and sunja just being caught up in the moment (plus his wife is still alive, i don't think she'll just forget about that)

it's hard to make a good detective show but scriptwriter, director and actors did a great job. every character and every arc fits the story well. every episode kept me on the edge of the seat. hearing composers' soundtrack in the background was especially thrilling. the album will definitely go to my favourites

also it's terrific to see ji sung taking on new challenging roles and nailing every single one (but i hope he won't risk his health for farther projects)

these kdrama stans just never learn. every goddamn time they convince themselves they know the actors better than everyone else and get offended if reality might not match with their delusions.

guys, stop worrying about rating. out of 14 episodes only 4 are out. most of the people who watch the show haven't rated it yet. i get that ratings on mdl are not always fair, but if the next episodes won't disappoint i'm sure the rating will rise. and 8+ is still a very good rating

some canadian guy. i don't think we met him yet

i mean this a character driven drama as well. they're going to tell us why jjk became untrusting to people around him and fell apart from the rest of the group. and there's not much of it anyway

that's weird

guys, do you know why was palette's page deleted?

people complaining about adding haein's death annoys me because clearly it was added to emphasise that her cancer didn't return and she lived a long life. you guys remember bomcha's friend who died because of recurrence, right?

righttt. it felt absolutely devastating

the person who came up with the montage of fading memories needs to pay for my therapy

sometimes it's getting waaay too much though. i hope this doesn't turn into another gyj x ljw situation when people started writing under gyj's ig posts "i'm so sorry he chose another woman", "i'm heartbroken too" and etc only because of their own assumptions
