Did anyone say TSHLYE? TSHLYE fan reporting for duty. Your comment alone has made me 100% interesting in watching this.

I couldn't even finish the first episode. I loved the basic concept from the summary so much, and thought that the drama would have a chic and modern feel to it with epic cinematography etc, but the production values are beyond deplorable. The characters are a mess. This might just be the biggest disappointment of the year. I didn't know about the writer's previous works, gah, it all makes sense now. You are spot on with: makjang on steroid

Truth

That'd be really freaky, so I hope that wasn't the case, and I didn't get any even remote indication of it. JG was a very parental figure towards JK. I thought JG never showed romantic interest in Tak because of the enormous amount of guilt he feels. That's why he convinced Yoo Ri to confess to the police. He feels like he got away with murder and he thinks that he doesn't deserve happiness. The final episode did a good job of highlighting all these themes. MY said in his farewell letter that JG should stop feeling sorry for him, 25 years is punishment enough.

I'm ok with tragic endings, I sometimes even prefer them. The frustrating part is how easily the tragedy could have been avoided. If only MY had that talk with Jin Gook before. It's very Romeo and Juliet-esque, in that the whole reason for the tragedy is serious misunderstandings and lack of communication between the various parties. And even then, I'd say, its a good kind of frustrating for me. It means that I was really invested in the story and characters. I'm overall satisfied too, 9/10

I hear you. His actions made zero sense and the drama didn't even TRY to explain them. That's so frustrating. Like Jin Gook could have said that he did all that because he was scared that JK would find out about her past if she stayed beside MY, and for her peace of mind, he never wanted her to find out. That would have been a reasonable-ish explaination to me. Le sigh!

Same

Don't we know it. I was screaming in frustration the whole last two episodes. Gahhhhh, this is some next level Greek tragedy x__x

I think you should spoiler tag this, so people who haven't watched the drama yet can suffer from the agony of not knowing if its going to be different from the original. Though, I doubt anyone who waited would avoid the spoiler tags.

I second that, he nailed it.

Yep, it'd be better for him to just tell his sister everything. No matter how horrible the truth might be, it would still be better than how he's reacting. I've been thinking back on all those times he called MY a killer, a bad guy and whatnot. He's turning into a way worse person himself >.<

I hear you. I really like the main leads, but I'm way more vested in the 2nd lead's story. I'm totally onboard this ship.

I know right, the suspense is just about killing me. It's going to be a long week >.<

Ah, good point, that was never elaborated on further. She only turned into Korean speaking people since the pilot.

I so hear you on the plot inconsistency, there are so many details that confuse me all the time. About the people she turns into, I remember SG saying something about how she felt sorry for the people she turned into because those few days were all the time those people got to live. From that, I concluded that she turns into non-existent people.

Hahaha, nailed it. Can't help sing this while looking at the drama title

She turns into a non-existent person, its not a body swapping situation. The shape shifting gets explained a little bit here and there, though its still mostly a plot device.

Wow, love your analysis. Excellent TED Talk :)

Glad to know I'm not the only one seriously peeved by two people in each car. Ever heard of car pooling, Sherlock Holmes *shakes head at the drama characters*. And this wasn't even the first time, they were always racing about in multiple cars, gah, I can't even. Product placement is frustratingly common place in k-dramas, be it: Subway, ginseng, fried chicken, cars, winter jackets... you name it, they advertise it. It's fine as long as it's not too blatant and doesn't detract from the story. I just wish they'd do eco-friendly and socially responsible advertising.

Loved your character descriptions, so on-point
