Rugal was my very first Korean drama that I saw and I loved him in it even though he played the villain. The K 2 was my second and Man To Man was my third and he was in that one. Ever since I saw Park in both Rugal and Man To Man I tried to find any and every Korean drama he's in. Life On Mars, Hidden Identity...just to name a few...He's my first Korean actor that I have come to love and will watch anything he's in
I'm a bit dismayed to see 38 Task Force on here. This was actually a great drama. It didn't really start picking up until episode 6. After that it got better and better.
He was the reason why I love love love The King Eternal Monarch. I don't do romantic dramas but he stole the spotlight from the main character. Even though I couldn't bring myself to finish Save Me, he is one of my favorite male Korean actors. Glad to see him coming back to the drama world..
Your first paragraph had me at 'I know, right!' That's why I didn't recognize him from the jump. When I realized I almost swallowed my tongue and had to grab a tissue...Shallow moment, I know but OMG!!!
After that initial shock I had to get back to my morals and enjoy the drama. I liked the whole cast both good and bad. Except for the chick with the bob. Couldn't stand her.
I usually cringe with the female Korean actresses in some of the dramas I've watched so far. I have to say Sell Your Haunted House was by far my favorite when it came to the female actors. I loved every last one of them. I wish this was how any drama in Korea portray female actors. It makes for a better watch instead of watching love sick, poor and stupid females.
If he's showing off his tae kwon do skills I'm there. Still waiting for Fiery Priest. I hope it won't have that cliche romance in it. IF it does....I will have to pass.
OMG! I was thinking the same thing about everything you just said!! How could they be detectives and can't tell what a suicide looks like?! When I realized there was romance in this I was going to immediately drop this but I wanted to know how it would end. I even skipped the last 10 minutes because it wasn't worth it.
Anything with Lee Joon-gi you better believeeeee imma watch it, sign me the hell up
Me too! The only reason is because he's a good fighter and the dramas I've seen him in-even the Korean version of Criminal Minds have been great which have led me to watch anything he's in.
Same here. I watched a lot of Asian action movies. K2 and Healer got me hooked on Kdramas. I saw JCW as as a budding…
You nailed it. I saw the K2 before Healer and liked them both up to the point where they turned sappy. People giving his works good marks because of his looks is just shameful. As they say 'looks aren't everything' it holds true when it comes to watching challenging roles for this kid. If he didn't have the looks then I don't think he would make it in dramas. I know the action stuff was paying a toll on him but don't become a fighter if you're not going to fight.
Rugal was the first action Kdrama that I loved and will watch Kdramas like that. No sappy romance and nothing based off of looks.
I stomached 21 episodes of Suspicious Partner before I dropped it. It was oozing with sappiness that turned me off of any Kdrama that have romance in it. I steer clear from those kind of dramas. I know I'm missing out on some good dramas but the cliche romance stories just don't do it for me.
I only come to like JCW because of his mad fighting skills in Healer and K2. Since then the stuff that he's been in has been dismal for me. I couldn't stomach Suspicious Lawyer or whatever that series was and I couldn't stomach Backstreet Rookie. I know he gave up doing action but just because he's in these sappy series doesn't make me want to watch.
I'm glad someone else sees this as it not being an excellent watch because it has 'eye candy'...My gosh I get…
Did you not read what I wrote?? You got nothing better to do than to take what I said out of context, huh? Go argue with someone else cuz I don't have the time or patience to deal with your idiotic comment.
I know I'm late coming into this review but I enjoyed your review. I watched this about the time when I was getting into Korean dramas and love action dramas. This series was why I stopped watching Kdramas with the romance. This was good but it got sappy real quick and I was so disappointed afterwards.
