Late October or November. Disney+ is promoting Tempest now, it's an international K-drama with some established Hollywood actors, the poject is really high-profile. Made in Korea will be released after that. We will know more a month later.

That's what I am afraid of. They did the same in "Trigger" on Netflix recently. The show started great, really went to grey areas about weapon, but then suddenly it became moralizing, self-righteous and preaching, like "guns are bad mkay, just leave everything to the police and government."

Or she/they will be recruited to work undercover by some state agencies, whether it's law enforcement or the NIS like in "Insider" a few years ago.

I can feel some possible noona romance here. There might be mutual manipulation from both leads in the show. But I don't know what their endgame is going to be.

I didn't want to watch this show, because I thought it was a remake of the American show, "Weeds," from mid-2000a to early 2010s. But it seems to be an original story. The similar things are main characters in both shows being housewives left without husbands in dire financial circumstances and turning to drugdealing in some kind of fish-out-of-water setting.

Well, I did start to watch Vincenzo at the day of the premiere, but dropped it after a few episodes, because I didn't like the vibe, and jokes didn't land for me. I mean some (many) people like the show, and that's fine. but I didn't.

i watched it. it wasn't realistic at all. Actually it was pretty dumb.

( read the original novel several times (first time it was in the middle school) and watched the original Oscar-nominated movie from 1970s many years ago. The contrast was striking. The crew of the modern show just doesn't understand the material and didn't care about logic. I even wrote an article about it for one site in my country.

Korean cinema has had some smart political movies, such as The Spy Gone North (I have been Lee Sung Min's fan since), 12.12: The Day and even Escape from Mogadishu (the scene in the airport at the ending was brilliant).

I didn't expect it would be so melodramatic/romantic. To be honest. I'm okay about the romantic (and, probably, tragic) plotline, but I also don't want the show to be a romantic drama. Just give me a proper political drama thriller with real (but realistic) stakes and the characters having actual chemistry and being 3D.

What else could one expect from the marketing person? Trying to generate hype is literally their job, whether it's for real reasons or not.

The marketing person said this drama would be mediocre, "Who cares? We needed our paychecks, just consume your corporate slop and stop bothering us."

The marketing person said this drama would be bad, "Well, we really missed the mark here. You can't imagine how bad the script was, and the cast didn't even try."

I wholeheartedly support one of the show's messages -- to be nicer to each other. You can't know what another person is going through right now and what might make them snap. Etiquette isn't some boring and outdated thing, it's literally safety precautions, a code written by the blood. Some politeness could save you from the bullet in your head.

I have watched 3 episodes. Acting is fine for that cast. There has been nothing breakthrough yet, but it's as decent and solid as you would expect seeing the names.

The story is great. It's a bit vanity fair for Kim Nam Gil and his character, but I'll allow it. The show deals with some morally grey areas and doesn't preach as much as an American show would do. I mean there are some bad people who use guns for bad reasons and some good people who either haven't had any options or "have been in one bad day from the snap."

DEX was good enough in Tarot last year.

The networks/streaming services aren't in business of giving actors self-actualization/the sense self-fulfillment and so on. They are in business of selling content for money, it means they will use celebrities to attract as many viewers as possible and it will be happening as long as they are good enough in viewers' opinion. Look at casting of Jisoo and others.

It might be annoying, but unfortunately it's real. DEX kinda proved himself last summer, it means bosses are going to try and cash out his popularity.

He was fine in the horror K-drama Tarot last year.

Hyeon Hop said neither the classmate (I believe he was called a class president a few times), nor their friend has any S-lines. But they are a bit suspicious for me, because neither of them helped Seon A as she was bullied.

Probably it's some adult person who has the S-line with Seon, someone who she knew close enough. I would think it's the ML's demented father, her grandfather who raped her in the past. It might explain his feeble suicide attempts. On one hand, his degrading consciousness doesn't have a mechanism which made him rape his granddaughter, but on other hand he understands/remembers he did bad things on some level of his mind, but on third hand he can't even finish the job in his current state (e. g. he forgets what he wants on the roof). It's tragic reallly.

Maybe it's the ML's partner. He is a rather famous actor, but he has been basically a glorified extra in the show so far. So he either should be be one of the secret antagonists and there is some betrayal, or he will save the day/the protagonist in the finale.

Anyway it would explain why Seon A tried to get some money to leave Seoul as quickly as possible and didn't say her uncle about bullying. She doesn't trust adults, even her family members.

No, she isn't. She is in coma.

We have already had a character who didn't turn to a murderer. It's at least Hyeon Hop. Yes, she internalizes her trauma instead killing people, but still. It means there is some hope.

Probably it's a hint on her S-line storyline. Who it is? There is something sinister, so that's why SOS.

SBS officially announced the 2nd half of 2025 at the beginning of the year. Then there was a leak with the SBS shows schedule from some work meeting in the network. Season 3 of Taxi Driver was set in November, on November 14 to be precise, if I understood the phone picture of the chart correctly.

Because of complicated and heavy subjects such as sex, cheating, "relationships of minors and people having authority" (to put it mildly) and so on.
