omo-omo-omo

Will try my best 😭😭😭- thanks for the heads-up!

Oh yass! That is amazing, am glad that they are feeling better and we would have subbed episodes. I must search and gift them coffee or something to support them, cause this wait made me realise the importance of subbers!

I guess will practice some patience, have already waited a lot - will wait some more for the subs to be out.

Thanks a lot, Leidramas for checking it and sharing the update - you made me so happy!
Also - your DP (love it, cause I love him <3 )

I don't like that either - the typical ghost attributes. This is making more sense now - and I can already see the other users comments and your own comment - gives me faith that I can go ahead and binge!

Thanks a lot Shinnosuke (btw great name) and let me binge it too, soon!

Oh no! wishing the subber-sensei a speedy recovery, cause I really need to see Ep 7 and beyond.

Like Jaym said - will lose interest otherwise, though I ended up doing a Kentaro Sakaguchi marathon (again) to make up for the gap LOL (HE is one of my favorite actors and huge crushes, so...)

Any other alternate places to watch it - with the subs?

Thanks Shinnosuke - your comment helps to know what I might be getting into.

I used to love watching Horror genre cause it did not scare me, like it was normal. But for some reason after watching the Conjuring sequels/prequels Annabelle at like 2am at night, I have been scared of these background music that they use that almost caused a heart failure. Hence I wanted to make sure - hahha!

I love suspense/thriller/mystery as genres - but wanted to know if it has any gory or horror scenes with like a lot of blood/or icky kind of stuff.

Won't watch in full volume and maybe in daytime - but looking forward to it!

Hahaha - ouch! I was going to take Mansi's words and try the other two dramas, but now you are deterring me from it XD LOL!

No jokes apart - definitely, this drama was super anticipated - for me cause of the premise (since it is adapted from webtoon) and when I heard the FL cast as Shin Hye Sun. So let's say when these happened - my anticipation level was a 10/10

But as soon as the ML was cast, and I remember that I had dropped Yumi's Cells because of him (I was just telling another MDLer that he looks to shabby in that look and a very dispassionate actor), my anticipation level became like a 7/10

I usually binge dramas but for actors I like, I do watch it on air and look forward to the weekly updates. But this one just cause of ABH - I feel even just Shin Hye Sun is carrying it forward, and hence I am okay to even wait for more episodes to air and then watch it cause it is not that exciting for me.

I guess, Tejas - you, I and maybe some others MDLers would agree that - Shin Hye Sun and Kim Jung Hyun, are really fine actors - who know their art very well, and are able to portray it onscreen effectively.

Like I started seeing both of them in their dramas where they were in support role only - and even then I took notice of them. They lived the characters they were playing but also had their own touch in it, so that as an audience I will recall them in future and be their fan!

Which is why I love seeing them both in main lead roles, as and when they had their break and it makes me happy and cheer them onwards as a fan!

But yes, Mr Queen is one such drama which minus just one minor thing in plot, is flawless for me. Like I have been seeing dramas since 2006 - and consider myself a drama addict, it is one such drama that I want to scream at the top of my lungs and persuade everyone to watch once at least.

And a lot of credit goes to these two amazing actors - and their pairing, which is why any dramas they do or will do, at some level I will end up comparing the cast opposite them back to this beautiful pairing!

Thats the curse of a very well done drama I guess, but I am glad I have more people like you, who think the same :)

Thanks Mansi - yes, that's what I wanted, some recommendations cause he is a highly popular actor. And in any case, I feel the craft of these actors is definitely great that is why they are where they are at the moment.

But thanks for the recommendations - in fact both these dramas are on my PTW list, so let me see how he is in those.

Did not want to bias it on one role, but till now, you are right Ep 4 is where the tiny sparks have come in but overall that instant chemistry and how some actors just live their characters as if it was made for them - I did not see it for him so far.

Also for some reason, his look in this show reminds me of Koo Ja Sung in The Secret Life of My Secretary (for those who have seen it). Ja Sung was also the second romantic pair there, but he kind of shone in it as well. ABH has a similar look - but somewhat feels dull.

But yeah I can see it in Ep 4 - so hopefully the rest of the series, he grows and brings more of his acting chops on screen for us to enjoy!

The poster and premise is very close to the 2018 drama, The Guest.
Any similarities? (Please do use spoilers tab - I don't mind a few mild spoilers)

I thought the same, and in my mind they are still the OTP!

For some reason, I cannot relate to Ahn Bo Hyun's acting. In fact this is my first drama of his, I had to give up Yumi's cell cause there too I had the same problem. To me it seems, he is just acting for the sake of it, like there's no drive or passion (P.S. Fans - please don't hate me, this is just what I feel). The only reason I am watching this drama is for my beloved - Shin Hye Sun, and the plot mystery.

Even the reverse was true, Kim Jung Hyun's drama Kokdu - I really wished they had cast Shin Hye Sun as the female lead. Even with the flawed plot - it would have been a little bit better I feel.

I guess the conclusion is - Mr Queen has ruined me, for the better and deservedly so. Such a drama is one in a lifetime kind, to be remembered and liked for ages to come in K Drama history!

Oh yes - you are right, those funny yakuza characters in some anime. That are more comical than menacing, though his role here seems more serious.

Yes, we have that perception in our mind - he has been stereotyped as the funny side character, so it would be difficult to see him in a negative role. But he definitely proves his acting mettle!

Here I was hoping that he would go from support roles to main lead roles - cause he deserves it. But this character appearance looks kind of funny (very Jojo's Bizarre Adventure anime character like).

But then he is a fantastic actor - so he would do justice to any role no matter what, I can say this even without seeing the series.

Pretty sure he is yet again adding another role to his diverse portfolio - so more power to him, and as a fan really makes me happy to him in more shows!!

I had been putting off watching this movie since a very long time, like years - cause I knew that this would be heartache ending. Even if had my favorite - Kentaro Sakaguchi. Finally put my brave face on and watched it today (16 June 2023), also cause of the fact that I wanted to see more of Kentaro while I wait for subs for Dr Chocolate (his on air drama).

I am still crying and in my opinion their decision to stay together and that ending was something I cannot like - but it was very fitting. I usually rate my dramas/movies in reverse - like give it a full 10 points, and keep deducting 0.5/1 from the score as it progresses. Sometimes even basis the overall vibe I rate it +/-. And so very few dramas in my watchlist are in the higher scores - especially 9s/10s.

At this point - I actually cannot find any fault with this film (and this is keeping aside the sad part and my bias for Kentaro). I am a sucker for happy endings but even then this movie is beautiful, in every way. I am not a big critic or knowledgeable about the movies - but this will remain a 10/10 for me, and I would recommend anyone reading this - to give it a try, at least once, if such tales are your cup of tea!

Eagerly waiting for this one - as the story premise is so new and promising!
Plus, another drama where Shin Hye Sun is in a lead role - can't wait for her to shine in this one as well 💖

Downloaded it today and omg-love the new look and feel. 💖
The tech nerd in me has been activated and I will definitely use the weekend to explore all the amazing thing the team has done!

Thanks a lot, MDL team who has worked on this - you're the best ❣️🙏🏼

That is an interesting line of thought - maybe also cause it may give away his disguise. But then why was she crying and he looked too aloof and ignorant towards her??

So many questions - I guess if we have a Season 3, will answer these

Yes, cause everyone always roots for Go Eun and Do Gi - but that has not happened as well. So there is something that we would get to see as part of Do Gi's past.

Ep 16 - Finale, the One Year Later Part:

Understand that there is some reason Do Gi did not want to go back to the army. This is what he shared in the first episode when he gives a ride back to a former army mate. This is also where we realize his trauma of that whistle sound.

Now in the end we see he is back again reporting for duty - it is definitely a guise to uncover the sexual assault case. And it was bound to come, cause of the comment that was made when the Doctor/Hospital Case was shown - that Hospital and Military are two places where one cannot question or rather know malpractices that happen within the walls.

Now my questions:
1. Who is the woman who salutes Kim Do Gi?
2. Why does Kim Do Gi ignore her?

Does anyone else feel it can be an old flame and this could be one of the reasons he left the army?

I have some questions for Ep 16 - finale ending. Have added it in the first comment under the spoiler tag. Would love to discuss it with anyone who has finished the episode/Season 2....
