This type of review, contrary to what some may think, is not put out to make themselves feel better, but to warn those more critical of productions that certain titles are not worth starting to watch. Believe me, such people also exist. You will understand when you grow up :) Have fun watching this drama :)

Watching Stranger helps you understand the protagonist and the situation he finds himself in, but you can safely watch just this drama. The creators here have provided all the information you need to have fun and understand the plot and context. Although I admit, there are some moments that taste better if you know Stranger. So, it is worth watching the original series, but it is not necessary.

Who is amazing? I ask because in this light it is impossible to recognize faces and no official Weibo has such a video. Who made it? Because the poster photo is certainly not from an official movie source. It's been in circulation for a long time, and no official footage from the film has come out yet, showing the main characters. But what do I know.

In such situations I discover the charm of old dramas :)

Totally agree. This is a “let's put a popular actor in anything, fans will love it anyway.” type drama. And many did love it. It's a shame, there was potential in the story, it lacked a good director so the execution came out, let's say, disappointing.

The ending is bland. Sad but hopeful, only done in such a way that many people were very disappointed.

This season is pathetic. For 99 minutes of embarrassment, there is 1 minute of something decent, and it's usually spread out over the entire episode - 5 seconds here, 15 seconds there. etc. I can't believe what I'm seeing. The first season was pretty funny and made sense, and this one - it makes you want to say: "It's 2024, baby, what did you expect?"

According to the official information provided on Weibo for the first promotional video, the release date is Chinese New Year, or January 29, 2025.

Ha, ha, ha :) Good one :D

Ha, ha, ha :) If I want to watch Wes Anderson I watch Wes Anderson, I don't need a Korean copy of it. And by the way - I don't watch him, much less crave his Korean copy :)

After the climate of this drama, it seems to me that they want to say something wise, existential. It's just that they chose tools to do so that appeal to some, not to others. To me and to you it doesn't appeal. People have different worldviews, different experiences, different tastes. If I need something existential, I'll read Thomas Aquinas or Nietzsche. I don't need Korean dramas about kidnappers for that ;)

No need to understand this drama, thank you :)

I don't know why you assume that “understanding” this drama is important in other people's lives. It isn't. You like it, for you it is important - great for you. Others will live happily without it :)

Yes, I know, he's dying, he wants a little happiness before he dies, and the only woman he's ever loved is just getting wrapped up in a situation that could end in tragedy for her, but it doesn't turn me on. This love of theirs is a doozy. I wouldn't be surprised if he even made her a little baby. But for me, free will is the most important thing. I don't believe in the romance of kidnapping from the altar. A woman should make her own decision and, if it is a bad decision, suffer the consequences. Such a deliverance of someone by force, making someone happy by force, is not good for that person. It may look nice in fairy tales, but in real life it's damn toxic and I know something about it. And he is a stinking selfish person. The guy is dying, so he won't give her a beautiful life, and he's taking away the one she gained by her own efforts. Her fiancé loves her and he's the one who came up with the pregnancy, so if he found out that she couldn't have children, he would come up with something to deal with the mother. He could have a mistress and with her have offspring, as in any self-respecting Korean drama with millionaires :)

I dropped it during episode 3. It's not a bad drama, it's just....

And did I pass it off as an innovation? :)

I don't mind tropes, and I personally like this one, but what matters to me is how this trope was shown and here it is shown very, very typically, predictably and boringly. Personally, I would have preferred them to show that he is struggling with something first, and only then, gradually raising the tension and curiosity, show that he has a trauma. And not so hammer to the head already in the first episode. I haven't had time to get curious yet, and they've already given me the answer.

So far I have not heard any leaks or even rumors, It is strangely quiet. Not alarmingly, I'm sure something is being prepared, but perhaps he is now devoting himself to his singing career. In any case, if there are any rumors, I haven't heard any.

I have the impression that this drama was made for Generation Z or even Alpha. Seriously, it's like I'm watching a cartoon for kids. It meets all the criteria on the list: a dark ML with a tragic past but with a good heart, an energetic FL who will protect him emotionally and otherwise, issues very relevant to people who don't yet have to work and worry about paying the bills. Yes, this drama will definitely appeal to viewers around the age of 20. After all, there is no adult there to act like an adult and be a model for someone. The drama perfectly reflects the needs of its time.

If you liked SDJ as a character and the actor playing him, I recommend his older role as a completely different prosecutor. You won't believe it's the same actor. I recommend the old drama “City Hunter.”

Judging by his Weibo, it's official. On November 12, we will get a new song and M, 我们” (We)
