I saw "Weak Hero" appear on Netflix yesterday, but the difference in title made me doubt whether it is the series from my "Plan to Watch list", so I came here to confirm — it is!
I have submitted "Weak Hero" as an additional title, above.
It's been over two weeks since KSH has been surrounded by obedient subordinates, fawning sycophants, sympathetic reporters, & complimenting industry personnel. He must be missing the life to which he had become accustomed. The absence of constant praise is filled with silence & the thoughts in his own head.
Why would we pity him while he is adapting? He should be getting used to it.
A reply (as you were typing this) to the post just below yours claims the "ex-husband said that he only met KSR…
It is important that people like you continue to make this point. You are of course correct.
Meanwhile, I'm still gonna indulge in some harsh satire against KSH, if only because he should have known better than to have made some of the choices which brought him to this moment. But mostly because of Kim Sae Ron. RIP 😢
She won't suffer, she got paid, she may be best to distance herself from this drama asap. It's a write-off
Sure. All that is true and not right, also unfair! But Lee Jung Jae's performance was broadcast, which is a requirement for nomination. This series will not qualify, and no actor awards.
They ended it on a cliffhanger this week! AAHH Every time there is a heartwarming moment, Takahashi takes it…
And that recurring buildup of Takahashi ruining every heartfelt moment with an additional disclosure all leads to a huge payoff in episode 8, following his revelation of his motivation to save Ki! 🤣
And went up to 7.9 after it finished airing. I guess it might be worth watching.
It's up to 8.0 now, amidst its international release schedule (having been delayed for subtitles production), currently post episode 8/10. I expect it will should continue to rise as it is increasingly delivering fun & endearing payoffs.
I can't help thinking Kim Soo Hyun is going absolutely batshit-crazy wonko-bonkers nuts while stressing over his shame, regrets, & diminishing prospects!
One minute he is lying in bed wondering if he's gonna die, which leads to whether it's happening now? Suddenly he's marching around the room, madly obsessing about the furniture. If that is his deathbed, why would he ever lay in it? The next day he's out in the yard standing a meter deep working a shovel and muttering to himself about what it would feel like to dig his own grave?
I can only hope KSH gets through this with enough lucidity to appreciate each and every moment, and all that they bring. And I wish him a very long life.
I hope that the police will figure out who lied, who cheated and who really helped....the one who goes to the…
Unless they have the original memory card, metadata can be faked. But there are other ways photos can be authenticated such as matching a hairstyle with other known photos from a particular time period.
7.9 is shameful. SHAMEFUL! This drama is so entertaining. Almost didn't give it a chance because of the negative…
I've really come around. My initial comments were mostly critical and—while I still notice little things here and there—I agree this drama is entirely entertaining and has so much more going for it that my complaints have all evaporate like the morning dew under the warm embrace of the sun.
It's just "on hold". Disney+ Korea still hopes to be able to salvage the drama. Frankly, their parent company has been hemorrhaging money left and right and can ill-afford any more losses! The most recent—and glaring—example being the current box office failure of Snow White, a live-action remake of the classic animated film which launched Disney's initial success as a film studio.
I want someone to ask KSH why he pursued & initiated a romantic relationship with a woman 12 years younger than himself, asking:
"Which was greater: your physical attraction to her immature body or mind? Considering how it is so much easier to gaslight, coerce, & manipulate a youth as compared to an adult, everyone has already surmised that both motivations are true, but which reason is MORE?"

Something something …exclusive tax break for billionaires, but he still needs to lose another billion to qualify… Something something.
