exactly. This is not just a fansite, as many seem to think. There's a use for evaluation and reflective commenting too. With such a critical mass of people commenting and rating, it's gotten really useful. I always look at comments before trying out a drama.

I suspect they might be PR people. Of course there are also pure lovers, but those have watched more than 100 dramas. I doubt that lovers would make new accounts just to promote a drama.

Hello Monster (I Remember You in Viki) is really entertaining. It's not boring, at all. There's humor and above all, a fantastic cast of actors. Seo In Guk is charismatic, the cops are funny in a good way, Jang Na Ra is badass. The "found family" mutually supportive homicide team is one of the things I liked best. There are at least 4 murders in each episode, so it's not aiming for realism. It's not dark or gore. I didn't find the motives of the murderers convincing at all, but that's not a big deal here, imo. Just fun to watch.

Pls understand that comments sections are for commenting. I'm all for k-drama world domination. But that means also trying to figure out why some dramas are magic and why some dramas just don't have the quality of writing that make them worthwhile. K-drama's success can also be it's downfall, if scripts are not worked on long enough, if scripts are not reviewed carefully. If producers are lazy or too hasty in accepting weak manusripts, that's no good. People will always disagree on dramas and that's more than okay. But getting crazy about people not agreeing with you, is not okay. Dramas are different from music, because when it comes to music nobody sees the point in discussing genres that are not for them. In music, dissing someone's tastes is a deep insult. In my view, dramas are different, because most people watch all genres and dramas are not a deeply physical thing and completely intertwined with one's identity (tribally).

One of the reasons for being here is to learn to observe and tolerate different opinions. But attacks on people having different opinions are not to be tolerated.

One thing I've noticed and the reason I follow this conversation is that mostly those people who have issues with negative comments have a profile that contains only Kokdu in the watched list. Are MDL discussions and comments now considered so important that the business is doing reputation control? Whatever, they go about in the wrong way, personal attacks on people commenting are just awful and terrible to read.

Very correct. Indeed. I can see that above 32 (!!!!!) agree with someone who says expressing a negative comment = throwing a tantrum. Pls all 32, respond to this so I can block you.

Backward legislation is the point. Not decriminalized. https://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/2023/03/01/national/socialAffairs/abortion-Abortion-Crime-Constitutional-Court/20230301125603176.html

Nice beginning, although nothing mind-blowing. I already like the main actors so much from their earlier dramas, so def going to go on with this for the 12 episodes. Bang Min Ah's vibes are so good, exactly what I need atm.

Always depends on the person who's receiving the recommendation. For men, I've recommended mostly Vagabond and Vincenzo. For young adults, Alchemy of Souls. For gamers, Memories of the Alhambra. For women, It's Okay Not to Be Okay.

Would not recommend.

Would not recommend.

He turns out to be the smartest of all.

Highly recommended, this drama is perfect in its genre, crime and thriller. The main character of the drama is really the village, and all the people in it. It's not the kind of village that forms a family, but rather where everyone has to keep their head down and keep their real selves safe and guarded. The psychological dimension is quite strong here. The suspense is there but this is not scary or gore. I got immersed in its world immeadiately and did not skip a moment. The acting is mostly top notch. Yook Sung Jae is a really good actor, Shin Eun Kyung and Jang Hee Jin are fantastic in their roles. 8.5

Even abortion is still illegal in Korea.

Alcohol is more dangerous. Of course also depending on amounts.

Actor is suffering from sleeplessness and possibly depression. Koreans: let's destroy his career too. As if people with all kinds of diseases deserved to be made jobless. Korean logic. Is cruel. Netflix is Canadian and never cancelled e.g. Russell Brand who was a full scale junkie during much of his career. Kids in Korea never dare to ask whether these substances could be made legal when there will always be people who self-medicate, or are self-destructive. Self-destruction will always find a way. It is full-fledged hypocricy to encourage drinking and condemn much less dangerous drugs.

Extreme hypocricy from Netlix. Korean cancel culture doesn't deserve such elevation. All of the drugs he took are less dangerous than alcohol which is drunk in huge quantities in k-dramas.

Honestly, I skipped everything about the 2nd and 3rd and 4th couples :)

There's some bullying - if you're fed up with it (like me). But the romance is nice and all in all I think it's a good watch. Not great but not bad either. I'd choose Hope or Dope for a fresher theme though since it gets out of the school environment as it progresses.
