He said in an interview around 2013/14 that he prefers theatre to dramas (I believe The Heirs live shooting schedule wasn't his jam?). While I'm glad he got his due, I can see why some might feel he's still underrated. I feel like he's not someone who wants to be Hallyu star. Although he's still very young, I could see him 3-5 yrs from now getting that DOTS Song Joong Ki style drama down the line. But yes IA, Film Actors compared to TV Actors are a step or two higher like it is in Hollywood. Plus, he will always get lead roles now due to his success from film/tv. It's just a matter of when.

FL is giving me Amy Dunne vibes and I am loving it!!

Excellent well made show. In a way it's a tale of the domino affects that murders have on society, and how it affects us all in a big or small way. Also loved that it was also an allegory to marriage and love, and how that safety net provides someone. Combined a lot of elements and it came out wonderfully in the end. Lee Joon Gi really needs to be recognized or nominated by the Baeksangs and other awards shows for his amazing top level performance here!!

The ratings are very good, given its cast and competing against ROY. The ratings are over 6% now, and might increase and take over ROY's ratings as their ratings decreased a bit.

From what I hear the romance is a bit of a scam? As in he leaves her at the altar and comes back later as a normal office worker. Feels like a cat and mouse game? Mr. and Mrs. Smith vibes. So prob. some romance but judging by what I read it doesn't seem like it's the main focus of the show.

The show felt like we knew these people in real life. It had that homey vibe b/c there weren't any chaebols or mega rich people in the drama. Just realistic characters getting by in life.

I'm a bit worried for the drama b/c its premiering on the same day as these other dramas, so it might get overshadowed. October is a busy month for bigger dramas.

Speaking of, is anyone a smidge annoyed they keep changing the release date for this show? Last I checked they got up to filming Ep 9, & resumed starting Sep 6. Wonder if this is going to be mostly and/or pre-produced then? I saw it's going to be on Netflix, which should help this show internationally. Adding for the wk of Sep 20: Seohyun said to a fan that there are shooting Ep 10 rn.

WTF?! Who casts these monsters?? UGH what a stain on the show. I hope his role is very small, JFC.

Lol. Well her identity now a days is more focused on being an actress. Well I just hope that she has improved is all I'm gonna say.

Is it just me or do a lot of K-drama actresses try to look pretty most/all of the time that they don't emote well on their crying faces? IA with you, emotional face (Crying) is suppose to be expressive, so actors that hold back on that can undermine their performance. Whereas KJH is incredible here that it hurts to look at him here b/c he was in actual pain :(

She is so beautiful, and very talented too. But man when I watch FOE, I can't help but be mesmerized by her beauty lol.

Aww :( So many great older dramas are so hard to find with subs. Korea fix this PLS!!

Its on OnDemandKorea.

Pretty much basically. JYM is an amazing actress in both tv and film. Meanwhile NJH is rising as a star, but he's sorta boring/mediocre as an actor. More looking forward to her tbh.

IA 100% btw! The show wasn't perfect, then again what dramas are. But for me it was disappointing that in order for the show to reach its conclusion (ending message), that it had all the other mumble jumble in between. Those aspects really dragged down this show which could've been awesome. Instead, it's a "What could've been situation?" I loved YHM, HJE, and SJH together as a trio when they had lighter moments. Loved the message at the end, but it could've been more tightly plotted at 12 episodes imo.

Yeah its more so on the fault of the writers than the talent involved. They did the best with what they were given. As for the SML, he was cute/supportive to FL but he was clingy/annoying when it came to her dating the ML. I wish that by Ep 8 that the SML did what he realized in Ep 15, and got with the secretary instead.

The ML was too into the idea of their past lives together. I think that ultimately in the end of Ep 14, he realizes that he can't live without her and gives her the repaired figurine. But yes I can't quite say a definite reason why he loved her other than the past lives aspect.

And for the FL's love for the ML too, I suppose other than he's rich/handsome, it was also tied in w/ that component too. Feels like it would be better as either a 12 episode drama or a 2 hour film imo.

Great drama! Holds its own against Signal. Emotional and fast paced thrill ride all throughout the show! If you like crime/thriller dramas with sci-fi elements and that is also emotional too, this show is a must!

Oh yeah the SL redeems himself later on, but those misunderstandings and the FL not really showing much boundaries w/ that could've been handled better. Overall, I think HJE, YHM, and SJH all did the best that they could given their material, and they came out of it fine which shows their talent.

Yoon Hyun Min is a great actor, its just that this role wasn't written well. He was very funny in Witch's Romance/Discovery of Love. Ep 15/16 shows the more affable and lovable side of him.
