It looks to me like the drama is finished. Did I like it? Yes. Was it better than Another Miss Oh? Not for me. Let me explain. The OG was able to get an amazing cast that made the secondary couples seem as important as the first. In this remake, the main couple had a different vibe but they were good together, the parents did a great job, and the actress who played the "pretty" Ploy knocked it out of the park. Where the remake missed the mark was with the secondary couples especially the "sister/ best friend" couple. As I was watching there was nothing about the lawyer that made me see him as a player and I kept wishing the director and costume people had allowed the boss sister a different look and attitude. (Ye Ji Won of S. Korea is one of the few people in the world who could pull that off and make it badass.) As for the brother/cute girl couple they were just kinda there. PS, For what it's worth, I think the kissing was way in the OG.
As expected episode 10 the even episode tried best to salvage whatever reputation show is left with. When even…
No democracies reflect the counties they belong to. What is a civil right in one country may not exist in another country. Australia, for example, has a modern "tradition" of free speech but with the exception of political speech has no constitutional or statutory "right" of free speech for its citizens. In the USA (a democratic Republic) three unalienable rights are given to its citizens by "The Creator": the right of personal life, the right of personal liberty, and the right of the pursuit of happiness, and The Founders believed "that to secure these rights governments are instituted among men". In other words, US citizens have the right: to personal security, personal liberty, and private property as long as these rights don't impinge on other citizens said rights. Of course, as society changes so do the laws of the country it represents. For example, the US inherited slavery as an institution when it was founded but eventually fought a civil war to make sure that human beings could not be considered personal property.
I don't get people complaining about "too much talking" in this show. The main plot is about the politic corruption…
I decided to weight and binge-watch it, but I did catch the first two episodes before I made that decision. I think what may be frustrating people is that Yeo Jin's loyalty is not with Shi Mok. (I know I thought he had earned it.) It looks like she's being swayed by Choi Bit. Shi Mok has got to be the loneliest character I've seen in a long while and I think the audience misses having someone who understands and likes him as a person.
I honestly think that DO is going to admit the truth in the new book "Last Love". However, I still think he's…
I think the writer may be trying to show that l DO cares more about becoming a family than he does about being "right". That's something I learned in counseling. My therapist used to ask me, "Do you want to get what you want? Or do you want to be RIGHT?". There are many times in life you can't have both..
When the main lead tells you in the beginning that he's crazy; believe him and suspend any expectation of reality. It's like you're watching a guy tell you about what happened to him while he's still on LSD. This movie really didn't make much sense, but I think that was the point. In spite of that I ended up enjoying it, lucky for me I had already watched Kaiiji so I had a clue. At this point I think I'm going to try the Animie.
I was so sad to read the news of your passing. I will miss your talent; you were one of the best actors of your generation. I hope you are in a better place now.
is this really a good drama? I like the visuals of both lead but I´m not a big fan of noona types of drama but…
It's not bad. What I thought was interesting is how the other guy in the triangle is at least 10 yrs older than the female lead and everyone thought that was hunky-dory. To be fair when the younger person in the relationship is in their late teens or early 20's and the other person is more than 5 or 6 years older I think there is usually an unfair balance of power but this didn't "feel" like a noona romance (until later) because her dating EQ was so low.
It's awful.. I mean FL face.. her age shows up ... ML acting all shy and getting swayed by her "beauty" is illogical!…
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I watch "mature" dramas the same way I watch "teenybopper" dramas... is the story good? If the answer is yes, I'm in. I might be able to see your point if Joo Ji Hoon was in his teens or very early 20's but he's in his late 30's portraying a lawyer who's that age or maybe a little older. If he wanted a sweet young thing he'd already be dating one. Here's another thing, as you get older you start looking for the whole package. She may not be as beautiful as a 25 yr old but she was pretty enough to get him interested. Her personality and intelligence are what sealed the deal.
That has to be what they are doing, because it doesn't make any sense otherwise.
I too saw an article about a 2nd season, but I haven't seen anything official. I hope they take the opportunity to tweak it and make it more about the main couple since it will be a shorter version. I have to say I liked what the mainland Chinese version did with the story by getting rid of the blackmail bit and having them get pregnant by consummating the marriage. The writers were able to have him trust her much quicker so his struggle was with himself and who/what he really wanted. It was like his subconscious knew she was the one and once his inhibitions were gone his alpha personality took over and claimed her. The only reason it wasn't a home run for me was that they got rid of the fight where he finally confronts Anna about her role in the death of his baby...It was quite the let down that they went the whole "Anna's forgiven because she suffered too so let's have her at the wedding" thing.

(Sorry Ji Soo but you did get the girl in My 1st Love.)
