Her daughter was probably the biggest differentiating factor of S1 from other law dramas. Their mother-daughter relationship was great, and she is one of the best child actors I have watched.

Netflix really upped the number of korean productions and they now have a shit ton of dramas in their backlog. Their schedule is going to be very full so this might become the norm, unless it's a blockbuster show being split into a few parts.

The premise suggests it will be a more grounded superhero story with a social critique, rather than an action blockbuster. I do agree that this poster looks underwhelming though.

I know I would have exploded from frustration if I binge watched this lol. Plus binge value is actually a pretty important metric to know how to maximize your enjoyment of the drama.

Frankly I was not feeling the first 2 episodes that much, but eps 3 and 4 picked up for me. Dogi acting as a bumbling idiot in awful clothes was pretty funny lol.

Typhoon Family is a series with a good heart, but lacks the finesse of a truly good story. As much as it started with a lot of promise, it did not achieve a lot of its potential in the end. It is worth watching but not a must-watch, and is not suited for binge-watching. 7.5/10

This little show is one of my favorites of the year. One of the few shows that successfully conveyed a good message through realism, without relying on dramatics.

Rewatching this in preparation for S2, and I'm appreciating it even more than when I first watched it. Lee Jaehan's character is the soul of the show, and I'm now old enough to understand how hard it is to be someone like him. Apart from a few logical holes (that are kinda inevitable for science fiction playing with time), this is a near perfect show imo.

No worries. I went to read the article and it sounds like a broken family who made selfish decisions -- which is a perfectly realistic situation. Personally, if MDL users can fawn over borderline abusive male leads, these characters are hardly red flags. LOL.

This description doesn't sound particularly appealing to me, but it's been AGES since I saw Ha Jiwon so I might give it a try.

I don't see how they sound like red flags though? Running away from a collapsed family isn't inherently wrong, even taking Asian values into account. Unless ofc, if she was the one who caused the accident then ran away without taking responsibility, then yeah that's a different story

To me, there's a difference between killing a stranger who's part of your enemy's company and killing your dad who's literally the only reason you are rich. But sure, your point is very valid. It also does align with his (lack of) intelligence being portrayed so far.

I just can't help feeling that the murderous intent came out of nowhere. At the very least, I was expecting him to be shocked at him hitting his dad the first time, but he straight up hit him again like a psychopath instead.

Hyunjun was depicted as a childish loser who hid behind his dad, and his resentment towards him grew over time. But him being a psychopath who hated him to the point of wanting to kill him?? I don't buy it. Sure, the point is that they obviously had their own self-destruction coming. But the writing is still one-dimensional and lazy, it's like they just wanted to wrap up the villain arc quickly.

It's hard to watch but I appreciate the realism in this drama. It's also a reminder that no one is indispensable.

Wow, they got David Fincher on board? Netflix is really serious on milking this franchise.

This premise kinda sounds like the anime Your Name, but it also has potential for comedic gold. If it's a Netflix original it will probably air in 2027/28.

Lol I only recalled after reading your comment... NIW looks very different in period getup.

The man in the poster does NOT look like Park Seojoon lol.

Shin Hyesun and Lee Joonhyuk in a Netflix show next year.
