USA - The half of it that hates Donald Trump as much as you do.
On Love in the Big City • Oct 24, 2024
I just finished watching this series.
I have an alternate title to share:

IMPLAUSIBLE, IMPROBABLE, IMPOSSIBLE: A fever dream fantasy of self-delusion

I will give this show one thing: Of the multitude of Asian films/dramas/series I have ever watched, this one is effecting me the most powerfully.

That's not necessarily a good thing.

To learn the most implausible, improbable impossibility of them all, I invite you to click on the spoiler button below:

He is young is what I thought all the time. You make the same mistakes over and over again until, hopefully, one…
Whose "nemesis" is she?

this comment is so weird... no parent in the world should hate their kid for simply loving someone. being gay…
Generally, I don't report people, because I like leaving their douche bagginess on full display for everyone to ponder. Plus, I feel like a tattle-tale when I do report.

I think I've done it only one time when someone trashed Lee Sun Kyun in a thread under news of his suicide. Horrible.

It really is the same. I basically read so much into the characters which is why my review might be a bit too…
I'm through only episode 6, but so far our overall opinions of this show are polar opposites.

He's young, not stupid. Unless it's the brain damage I suggested causing this behavior.

There's been only three, right? At least through episode 6?
You're not an idiot. :)

after episode 6:

1. Perhaps he is mentally retarded.
2. Perhaps he is mentally ill, as in narcissistic personality disorder, manic depression, or inability to store long-term memories.
3. Perhaps he is psychopathic and cannot empathize with others.
4. Perhaps he will awaken and discover it was all a nightmare.
5. Perhaps he is simply an asshole.

To this point, the show has given me NO explanation as to why he does the same thing over and over, exactly the same way, leaving human wreckage along his path of destruction; so that I can feel the tiniest bit of humanity toward him, I can only conclude #5 is the best choice.

Lol. As someome who lives in Korea, this is totally common here though. People make and break relationships quickly.
You don't get it. He doesn't even see what he's doing. He simply repeats the same, exact behavior, going from ecstatic lover to grouchy bitch to cruel dumper. He not only "makes and breaks relationships quickly," he does so in exactly the same way each time, and each time he believes his own bullshit; right down to the worst part of all: he feels sorry for and weeps for HIMSELF as if what happened is a new thing and he didn't just deliberately crush someone's spirit.

Perhaps he is mentally ill and I'll find this out in episode 8. That would explain a LOT.
Perhaps he had a brain injury and is unable to retain long-term memories, so he doesn't know he's repeating himself. He thinks each time is the first time.

BTW, I doubt young, Korean club-goers are any more promiscuous than anywhere else. What a limp explanation/excuse.

I like fucked-up, dark characters and stories. But what a lot of Korean movies do so well, especially in crime, mystery, and action films, is give me a reason to empathize with or understand, at least a little bit, why a vile, villainous person like this guy is the way he is and does the things he does. Thus, I indentify with and feel a tiny bit of humanity for, the awful turd.

This series gives me none of that. The guy is an asshole and I've no idea why, so I despise him.

After ep 6:
"...the world's dirtiest joke."
Finally...someone said it out loud.
I despise this dude.

I'm so disgusted, even pissed-off I don't trust myself to write more than that. Which means that I'm invested enough to feel so strongly about it, I suppose, but my god...
