Why the ML is shown so weak in this show, all bark and no bite. I want to see some action from him. His father…
Hmm...have you heard that restraint is strength under control? I'm not sure what you mean by action but going around lashing/bashing people isn't real strength. Not taking action is also not always weakness.
Wow ep 13 isn't what I'd expected. It's getting heavy and dark but at the same time more interesting. For those saying 2nd half is boring, I wonder if I'm watching the same drama as them. I say this show deals with a lot of stuff. Sung Dong II is really convincing as a cancer patient.
That is her real voice and has a real voice. China has new regulations where you have to use your own voice for…
Thanks for the explanation. Much appreciated. I guess there's some catching up to do for those who were used to having their voice dubbed. But I need to go back and watch Li Qin's past dramas. Maybe my memory failed me and she had her voice dubbed previously too.
Started out enjoying the drama but by ep 10 or so, it kinda lost its appeal for me. Is the FL using her own voice or was it dubbed? The delivery is rather stiff like she's reading a script. As for the ML, he is worse. Sounds monotonous and he really can't act.
As a Ji chang Wook fan, I seriously think he need a change in management or something. He's extremely terrible…
I may not like all of his dramas but as a JCW fan, I respect all his choices because he is professional about all the roles he played and he thinks about what kind of impact he wants to make by taking them on (based on his interviews). Directors and fellow actors have openly praised him so I'm darn proud of him.
Even though I enjoyed Healer, it is not my favorite drama. I actually like Lovestruck a lot even though it seems like a smaller production because of the story, format, and of course his acting.
You know, we can wail at his choices blah blah blah but at the end of the day, it's his life. He could be happy with projects that yield lesser impact for all we know. It's not a crime you know for some people who choose happiness/satisfaction over money and fame?
JCW was not my first fav K celeb but he's the only one I still follow. Without mentioning names, I had liked another actor who I suppose you can say grow from strength to strength. But I stopped watching his dramas now even though they're supposedly written by big names. Why? A lot of form and no substance and I can't give credit to him as an actor because he is really lacking in that department. Whereas for JCW, he may pick a normal script and I enjoy watching it thoroughly just because he puts his heart to bringing the character to life. I have a lot of respect for this man as an actor who puts his heart in his craft.
And I may sound harsh but I still wanna put this out: if you cannot respect his choices, please don't go round calling yourself his fan cos to me, you're clearly not.
This drama is as "brain damaged" as the 1st season but thoroughly enjoyable. Xiao Qi is cute as a button. I love her in season 1 and she is still hilarious here. Xiao Bu is cute too. I can't with her hair accessory. 😂
Most of his female co-stars look comfortable with him. He is also touchy with them as well.
Most of the recent ones I don't see him being touchy with them. More like they with him. I could be wrong of course but just based on what I've seen so far.
It will never get a 9+ rating. Even his best work that everyone raved about is 8.9. There are some people who would just rate his dramas low for the sake of it.
Personally I think this deserve 9 or 9.1 rating by MDL standard overall
I wonder if it's me but every time this drama rise to 8.5, it goes back magically to 8.4 or lower. For that to happen, the new rating(s) has to be very very low. Looks fishy if you ask me.
Why is JCW doing shows where his character is kinda lame lately ?!He either needs a new agency or he needs to…
Quite sick and tired of such comments really. It's not like it's a crime! We don't own him and we should not dictate what roles he takes on. Acting is his profession and he can choose what roles and what impact he likes to make. During a recent interview, he said he does not choose roles just cos his fans want him to do a certain type. I applaud him for being unconventional!
I don't watch many Kdramas lately. Somehow I can't get into them no matter how popular they are or I'll drop them midway. But I always watch JCW's dramas cos he is able to bring the drama to another level.
He doesn't need to play hero characters all the time! Also, what's wrong with portraying "lame" characters? Many real people are lame. I first saw JCW in Empress Ki and that was a major lame character if you ask me. But he was able to bring that lame character to so much life that I rooted for him. I think he was supposed to be SML but somehow he shined so much he was outstanding!
If you cannot respect his choice or have a problem with it, then don't follow his work. Save yourself the agony.
Is the guy in room 403 Gyeo Re's dad also? I know the guys relationship with Tae Shik but I'm so confused. My…
Looks like it cos his surname is Yoon and in the flashbacks, KTS asked about his son. Until ep 11, YGR has not seen this man in room 403. I was wondering with the hair and all and years passed, how could he recognize the man as his father? But he probably felt something familiar.

And yes, simply love how Nurse Seo is always teasing our YGR. She's atypical for a FL and I like that about her. Unconventionally sassy!
