The real adventure began at the moment ML joined the co. as formal employee, and the business plot started to set in. The last 20mins of EP2 was excellent, love the twist, tension and emotional outbursts.
A very solid EP1. They seems invested alot to bring back the nostalgic vibe in late 90's and it worked out well. Pacing was right for me, I particularly like how they unfolded the emerging of crisis through incidents surrounding the mainlead. The father-son relationship, friendship and rivalry tension were well depicted in just one episodes.
Seems Studio Dragon has a contract with Netflix to simulcast all tvN weekend dramas this year. The show after…
I mean Weekend drama on Netflix only, Mon/ Tue dramas are on other OTTs. Law & the City is the only weekend not on NF but its produced by CJ ENM not SD.
Sometimes loveline in a non-romance drama can be even more captivating than a melo/ romcom, this show has that potential. No hot kisses or free falling cliches in this scene but still manages to make you fluttering. Acting, directing, music all on point. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_pguEbb1Dw
LJH is a Baeksang best actor with multiple hits, enough said. He doesn't have to look up to anyone else. After a romcom (KTL) that gave him popularity, it's wise for him to take on other genres. A good actor needs breakthrough rather than staying in comfort zone. Also don't compare a romcom with a life drama, two shows pursue different things. They are not even competing shows in same timeslot.
It's more a life drama. A genre that blends humorous, lighthearted moments with deep and emotionally challenging scenes. A drama that makes you laugh and cry.
