I love my daily dramas, but why is this so long? This could easily be 16 episodes 😭

The FL was so pathetic from what I remember, it was genuinely irritating to watch. Still one of my faves though... the acting & music made up for it. FL's father was indeed TRASH!

(Edit: Her fate was very tragic though. They really just... piled on all the trauma they could think of onto her. Really wish she had more of a backbone.)

This was a HEAVY drama to watch. 2000s k-dramas loved their melos... because GODDAMN they put the characters here through hell! 😭

The drama *VERY* obviously established that Sang-Ah & Tae-Seop are in a marriage of convenience/MOC and do not love each other. Also... this is not a romance drama or a romance-focused drama. Melodrama, yes. If you missed these details, that's on you.

Not the alt account 💀 gay people exist, even in dramas. Deal with it.

That synopsis reminds me of First Lady a little bit, another political drama/thriller.

Possible. Episode 5 explores Jung-Won a bit more (it seems like Jung-Won is becoming a very common name in k-dramas lately, the FL in A Graceful Liar was named Cha Jung-Won too. Lol)

I watched Eve, I don't remember much of it, but I mostly liked it.

I was invested in the main FL (Jung-In) and constantly hoped for things to be better... also I definitely loved the villains and the 2nd ML's mother.

I'll definitely give the movie a watch!

And misogyny

I'm here for the sapphic stories ONLYYYYY 😈😈😈

This is a political thriller. Why the fuck would you expect romance in a noir thriller? 😭

9.5/10 for me at the moment. Might change soon though!

Me too!

The movie? 👀

I thought so 🤔 All About Eve is a k-drama I've been planning to watch for years now. Kim So-Yeon (one of my faves) stars in it. As old as it is, the plot sounds good.

I've never watched the Hollywood movie- heard a lot about it, though.

Tae-Seop is the protagonist, then. Sang-Ah plays an important part in his life. But it's still about him, his ambition, his rise, etc.

It's partially a political drama. Politics is one of the main sub-genres (since Tae-Seop wants to become the next Assemblyman.) It's a big part of the main plot and I wouldn't ignore that lol

I think they're both main characters, Bang Tae-Seop is the protagonist (there's a difference between a protagonist and a main character, after all.)

I know nothing about either of them, but I totally agree. It's ridiculous, you don't know either of these women!
