it's an interesting phenomenon. Like, everyone writes their own drama based on what they are watching. Sometimes they care about genre rules and conventions and sometimes not :) We can live with the diversity of reception. But of course I agree, there's zero romance in this drama and building ships or getting anxious about potential cheating is more out of place than in place. And it's interesting that potential for nonmarital close contact is the hot moral issue when a cop can beat people to a bloody mush without being punished. The key question imo is was that Junmo's breaking bad moment.

Pls. These are completely different genres. Both are excellent in their own genres. TW is fun with a heart, WOE is suspense, action, thriller. I choose both.

In S1 Tagon didn't want to kill Arthdal people. It was a bit unfair for Eunseom to say only he has a plan for Arthdal bc in S1 also Tagon had the same plan. Faced with enemies left and right he had to fight to rise into his position and the past haunts him and broke him. Tagon is not a villain but a key character. In S1 Eunseom was just a naive and innocent boy wanting to save his own Wahan tribe. The 8 years gap made him grow and also get into a war mode where Tagon had to be all his life. They're not all that different anymore. When Eunseom rules Arthdal, he will become another Tagon. I'm sure that's what the writers have in mind.

exactly, he didn't want to kill people. It was a bit unfair for Eunseom to say only he has a plan for Arthdal bc in S1 also Tagon had the same plan.

cringey it is. I have to skip most of it. still hoping it gets better

love this comment. and she knows the cops are on the way but doesn't yell or scream to let them know where she is. How difficult is it to scream. But the worst moment was when she was just watching Shin Yu bleeding from the stabbing.

if people express their criticisms, it's babytalk to call them toxic or haters. You must appreciate the fact that this a comment section and not a fansite. Write your own review in your own language, in your own line, and do not attack others. People at work do not gossip or have crushes, unless they're mentally still middle schoolers. Maybe at McDonalds, but the people in the drama have uni degrees and they are adults with real careers.

I have watched 450 k-dramas, you've watched 45. I can tell you what you say is not true. Cdrama, I don't watch.

Destined With You. Portrays adult professional women being in each others hairs and fighting over men. The representation of women in her drama was antiquated. Women gossiping, being bitches to each other, having teenager-ish crushes on men, even casting love spells. I don't know how much more the writer could have underestimated the intelligence of the audience. Maybe she had a writer team and they got carried away with the worst ideas and mistaking very bad ideas for fun ideas. It's just clear to me that the writer hasn't been working in a real workplace ever.

Enjoyed the drama bc Rowoon. But the fun is all gone when they portray adult professional women being in each others hairs and fighting over men. The representation of women in this drama has been antiquated. Women gossiping, being bitches to each other, having teenager-ish crushes on men, even casting love spells. I don't know how much more the writer could have underestimated the intelligence of the audience. Maybe they had a writer team and it got carried away with the worst ideas and mistaking very bad ideas for fun ideas. It's just clear to me that the writer hasn't been working in a real workplace ever. Everything about the FL's workplace team was superannoying.

That's just great, I hope this happens. Our Beloved Summer was special. And if he could live in the same house as he had in OBS in the new drama, I'd love that. It was just such a peaceful, healing space.

I haven't seen Island, but indeed he's a versatile actor and a good actor. Has developed his skills so much since Rookie Historian Goo Hae Ryung. Also he's a born comedian, just totally hilarious in Hit the Top. Good Day to be a Dog is not a serious drama, but the way he expresses emotions in the drama is enjoyable to watch.

would really have been the greatest ever

I think your theory is right, Eui Jung will probably die and that's how they end up working together

Yes, it's for the teens and the teens love it. I think there's actually quite a lot of research on the target audience behind this. I'm watching but skipping 3/4 of it so I get the fun parts. It just takes me 15 mins. I'm shocked at the FL's acting and not in a good way. Hope she gets better. Difficult to tell whether the director wanted it this way but her expressions are so over the top and she comes across as a 12 year old. The adult cop being attracted to her feels more than weird. Yes, and expect the teens come at you and call you a hater in their baby language, those darlings who are adamant in their belief that this is purely a fansite.

My guess the war of the drug lords is pushed from someone above. Because that someone about who we don't yet wants to dominate the entire market. That would leave both Ki Chul and Joon Mo both as pawns in their game.

The two highly ranked cops that recruited Joon Mo. The hint in that direction is that they also recruited the wife to help in a such a dangerous mission. Or quite possibly there will be someone with even more influence and prestige above them. Oftentimes the main villain turns out to be a corrupt highly ranked boss of police working together with an equally corrupt politician.

not really

I like the vibes in principle, it's good simple fun with sympathetic characters. But the fact that they're always having money problems and on the verge of loosing the mart is stressful. I wish there were more episodes. Then there could have been some episodes with the boys individual lives and them having fun time together or with the mart customers, with zero problems looming.

Two things I liked: Kim Young Ok with the flamethrower. She totally deserved to have this kind of fun! Ji Hoon exercising (but there's more of that in I Live Alone, showing how he learned the handstand). Why did he take this role, beats me. He deserves better roles for sure. All actors did great. 6/10. And a very random comment: any KBS Drama Special is better than a Netflix movie like this (just action for the sake of action). One and a half hours can be used to introduce relatable sympathetic characters and heartwrenching stories. This is not to diss anyone who liked Ballerina, but I strongly agree with the reviewer who gave this 4.5.
