What a fantastic first episode. Good introduction, explained thoroughly YJG's past with her younger sister without dragging it too much and the last half of the episode was so intense. I have this theory that Dahyun's Mother and Grandmother have something to do with Gye Hoon's younger sister's disapperance, because they were hiding the body like they were adept to it, even Dahyun noticed it.
I'm sad that a few people know that this premiered because Watcha still hasn't posted anything to promote it or give the international fans a proper way to watch and stream it.
Wow, A lot of negative comments about Im Soo Hyang, I watched My Graceful Family and she was fucking fantastic there, probably one of the most iconic Korean Drama characters and I think she has potential in acting if she picks great scripts that showcases her talent also I saw a lot of comments especially in her page commenting about her appearance which is just sick and out of line.
Also I have noticed that Actresses are always held in a high pedestal in acting while actors who are doing the bare minimum in terms of acting gets praised, it's kind of frustrating. I am getting double standards.
An enjoyable slow-burn sci-fi film with two great male leads. The dialogues were intriguing and the special effects in the carrie-esque scenes were great. The story is nothing new though and it's actually kind of predictable.
I love that Xhin showed us the art of Waacking, which is probably one of the hardest dance styles to master. He…
Shaming them? Where did you get that from? I said in my statement that because of a judgemental society, Men are afraid to exude feminine energy especially when it comes to dancing because people will laugh or mock them. The double standards is quite evident as well, when women dance to masculine dances it is deemed OK but when a man dances to a feminine song with feminine movements they will be automatically get labeled as gay. It is ok if you do not want to but I am just pointing out the toxic mascunility that some men face in dancing, as a dancer myself I also encountered a lot of male dancers that are like this.
I watched this movie because I watched first the TV Show version of this. I was enamored by how beautiful, thought provoking and heartbreaking this movie was, seeing two characters sharing the pain of thinking if their love would last was just heartbreaking yet also captivating. The two main protagonists were just well layered, sympathetic and you can easily connect with their characters. Yi Soo, was just fantastically portrayed by Han Hyo Joo, I love that they delved deeper into her character, seeing her trying her outmost best to understand Woo Jin even though it might cause her mental health deteriorating was sad yet touching. I also felt bad for Woo Jin throughout the movie, I could not imagine being in his shoes and he was also trying best not getting lost in the world of love because he was afraid it might affect his lover negatively. This movie was beautifully shot, beautifully portrayed and I was just in awe, crying and smiling all throughout. I also love the underlying message of Pansexuality, especially in the end of the film. Yi Soo did not care about the gender of Woo Jin, because she is attracted/fell in love with Woo Jin's personality which was uplifting to see. All of the A-list actors/actresses that portrayed Woo Jin were also good and I love that they ended the movie in a beautiful scenery in Czech Republic. Overall, a touching movie with great performances from the ensemble cast and a unique concept.
I have a love hate relationship with Goo Hye Young, I do like that she's persevering and doesn't give any two shits what other people think but sometimes she acts too rashly, I just want to go inside the movie and tell her character to think thoroughly about the things she's about to do, especially in the restaurant scene confronting a Chairman and giving the only evidence you have away I was just dumbfounded, What did she fucking expect? She could've made another copy of the recording but oh well. Throughout the whole movie, I want some sort of clarity with her character, thankfully she showed some of vulnerability in the last act of the film, and I did like the bulldozing scene. How the movie presented itself was quite messy and because of that some scenes were boring and the pacing was just off thankfully Kim Hye Yoon yet again did amazing acting wise, she never fails to impress me. The movie had so much potential to give a realistic approach about how people deal with debt and such but it was just messy and hard to follow with unlikable characters sprinkled in the mix.
I went in with this movie because of Wi Ha Joon, he is one of my favorite actors and I have a huge crush on him. I had expectations that his movie will be a gritty story about prison and school violence based on the posters and I didn't read any spoilers as well but I was pleasantly surprised to see that this movie was more heartwarming and inspiring. The whole message of the movie is quite simple, "Do not give up, fight harder day by day." and they clearly sent that message across. The plot was nothing new nor fresh but it was enjoyable. The main character, Cha Woo Sol played magnificently by Kim Min Seok was a believable sympathetic character and his character growth was great. Wi Ha Joon as Jung Do Hyun, was a great mentor he didn't appear as much as I hope he would've been but he was the main heart of this film especially to the main protagonist. The antagonist Seok Chan was played greatly by Jung Won Chang, even though his whole character arc was just ok, I needed more layers to his character. The other side characters, Sang Yeop (The mature captain) and Ahn Hyun Min were likable but I needed more of them though. The action sequences were well choreographed and the pacing was fast and exciting. I felt like this was an origin film, and based on the comments I red down below there is an upcoming TV series sequel to this, if it ever happens this movie is a great introductory to the characters and story so that the TV series could expand more. Also, the ending cracked me up.
I love that Xhin showed us the art of Waacking, which is probably one of the hardest dance styles to master. He…
I think this episode really shows how toxic masculinity is still relevant in our society. A lot of these male dancers are embarrassed to exude/show femininity because maybe they would get mocked or laughed at which is kind of sad but just what La Chica said, "It's just dance." but I am happy as well, that they are added more feminine dancers here.
Also I have noticed that Actresses are always held in a high pedestal in acting while actors who are doing the bare minimum in terms of acting gets praised, it's kind of frustrating. I am getting double standards.
