The young lad who plays Mark is a really good actor. I was surprised, particularly at the believable subtlety of it.

Personally I found it dull a lifeless, despite the fantasy/sci-fi setting but you do you.

That's my rule, too - please don't have actual dialogue about the crappy coffee, face cream or watch. That's just embarrassing.

Yes, according to the trailers. Choi Soo Young is a bad kisser and the ML is a good one so I wonder how they'll square that? Camera angles?

I was moved from the first episode in Move to Heaven, but this has been a bit 'meh' so far. Still I'm sure the 'Wookie' Sasaengs will ensure it gets a high score.

I think it might be a remake of the other Korean drama from 2015, called Cheer Up/Sassy Go-Go.

Korea definitely has escort agencies. That was the 'job' the FL was doing in Andante. It's a hire-a-girlfriend thing to take to dinner/events. Technically they don't provide sexual services (where prostitution is illegal) but, of course, that's a regular sideline.

So it's about an escort agency?

The reality is that most polyamorous relationships ARE headed by men . According to the Ethnographic Atlas Codebook (1998), of 1,231 societies noted, 588 had frequent polygyny (one man, multiple women), 453 had occasional polygyny, 186 were monogamous and just 4 had polyandry.

"Polygyny, the practice wherein a man has more than one wife at the same time, is by far the most common form of polygamy. Many Muslim-majority countries and some countries with sizable Muslim minorities accept polygyny to varying extents both legally and culturally. In several countries, such as India, the law only recognizes polygamous marriages for the Muslim population. Islamic law or sharia is a religious law forming part of the Islamic tradition which allows polygyny. "

Surprisingly twee and boring for such a 'controversial' topic. And it felt like an extended advert at times - the product placement was really obvious and clumsy. But I loved reading the comments section . . . all those elderly men from deeply religious/conservative backgrounds with angry, red faces and clenched fists . . .

'Rocky' screeches 'hater' at regular intervals. Best to ignore I think.

Thanks for instructing me how to watch a TV programme.

So far this is quite low-energy compared to Move to Heaven, Tomorrow or even Chocolat. I hope it warms up a bit (in a non-tropey way) in future episodes.

At least she didn't hit the ML as they so often have the FL doing for shits and giggles.

You have to be very pretty to carry off super short hair (which she is). For some reason it makes homely women angry, though.

That is so not a wild bunny.

Sweet dog. Otherwise, not enough so far to tell.

She hasn't slapped him, kicked him or beat him up (yet). Or, in a fit of pique, thrown a spike heeled shoe at his head hard enough to draw blood. Just some pointless violence visited upon his car. So its already an improvement.
