On The Legend of the Blue Sea Mar 22, 2017
This drama requires a proper mindset. Who says it was ever meant to be innovative? It's a slow, low-attention fantasy for stress-out and overworked. Angsty, ominous, but overall cheesy, just another gimmicky romcom using trusted and true means. It could have been much better (them chaebols...), but is not that bad as you can think from reading the comments. I needed months to finish it, but I'm glad I did.
I like how the past arc seeps through and stays somehow relevant almost till the end. It has this dream-like quality and engages more and more people, as if they shared a common dream like it was the most natural thing in a world. At some point the shows manages to be ambigous which line is real and how they're affecting each other.

Bonus question for those who finished it: does anyone feel like fixing a synopsis? Was it suggested in a drama that she's from Joseon era or not? Would it be a spoiler? She's neither transportorted to modern times nor longlived, but from what I remember the show wasn't clear about her identity till the middle or so.

Title Ms. Perfect Spoiler
Are they really going to romantically match up Go So Young and Sung Joon? Major real life age gap! Really wanna…
Who said something about sexism...? Noona romance isn't anything new, with age gaps even wider. If the situation was the other way around, the mayor problem reallistically speaking would still be one party already having two kids (but he doesn't seem to mind). And as it's a kdrama it's bound to follow some schemes: cheating husband and father of two is more likely to get a redemption than kick in curb (seriously, Eun Hee can just take him as far I'm concerned).
I'm of 'age is just a number' party myself, but I disagree that what matters is looks, but maturity. That's cryptoagism, it perpetuates to same idea you seemingly despise.
And frankly, with all due respect [why am I even writting this, there's nothing wrong about it] Go So Young looks her age, early 40, not 30. She's not one of those actress who can pull a 10 year rejuvenation. Just stating a fact.

I'll never get over Yook Sung Jae (School 2015). It still hurts! I'm putting 'Refresh Man'…
I needed a rewatch to even acknowledge he was a second lead there. Still not buying it 100%.

It seems good but even though I adore Lee Hyun Woo , I don't know if he can pull of this character... I think…
fear not, an army provides a need for constant rotation of a new faces.
On Tomorrow with You Mar 18, 2017
it's so refreshing that this drama relies on instrumentals instead of three measly songs tortured again and again. I can actually hear people speaking for once.

I feel sorry fo Do Ki Taek. The best he can count for in dramaworld is getting over his scary ex and falling miserably…
perhaps? but I refuse to accept that nothing good waits for DKT down the road.

Anyone knows a drama or a movie that deals with a subject of restrictions towards book copying and distribution?…
Thanks for a recommendation!

Title History of the Salaryman Spoiler
I started watching this, and I think I got up to episode 6. Should I continue watching this? will it become better?
there's also a Twin Peaks reference at the very beginning (a combo of deer head on a wall, chessboard in disarray and a dead body sitting in an armchair)! :)
(sorry for unburying an old comment, but I'm excited for this show)
On History of the Salaryman Mar 16, 2017
Jung Gyu Woon is wasted in roles of cheating, soon-to-be ex-boyfriends these days.
/how come I only found this gem of a drama now, it really doesn't get enough recognition here.

there's only 6 years difference between them in a drama if I remember correctly. They made him older (as always...) and her 10 years younger.

I remember Oh Hae Young once saying it takes courage to be easy or something along that line and it really hit me back then. Although she was very hard for me to understand, because we're very different and it pained me to see her make a fool of herself again and again, I kind of respected that attitude in some twisted way. She somehow made use of being desperate and openly admitting it.

Title Ms. Perfect
I like the turn it took although I have no idea whatsoever how are they going to fill next 14 episodes. Kudos for Jea Bok for trying to clarify the situation and for the antagonists for keeping their intentions eerily hidden.
But why is that worm of a husband still here.

Could someone tell me how was Kwon Yuri part? Did she have lot of screentime/importance? Was she bearable?
