As I didn't know Lee Jae Wook, I had a look at his other dramas and I'm quite enjoying watching Alchemy of Souls…
Same here. I like the acting of both actors actually. I am very sure there will be a reveal that is contrary to the current situation. If you haven't seen Queen of Tears, I recommend that drama. Very good acting and story.
Dropping this drama ... Don't recommend it. Even worse than I expected. I am expecting the story will turn around at the end and everything is a trick to get to the top. Remember the Chairman promised the ML a favor ... he didn't ask it yet so I expect there will be something about that. This drama is all about Oh I tricked you the audience and then bam new twists. I am just tired of the whole thing because I don't really care about the characters and plots.
I can't predict how Taeoh is gonna prove his innocence, do you have any theories?
I am sure there is a way ... they can say anything at this point ... there's always something they hide ... this is why I don't like this drama: always presenting a seemingly impossible situation (for example the dad having a heart attack and then there's a behind the scene that we weren't given any hints to). This is a cheap way (easy) to create a thriller.
let me try to explain. inha's keeping hyewon by their side as taeoh's only weakness, to manipulate them and use…
I am not confused by this manipulation ...Inha saw the emotional weakness and took advantage which makes sense. He's amoral. I am confused why ML1 likes the FL without any development, and why she's so scared of her mom!
At this point (after ep 5 & 6), I am indecisive whether to continue to follow this drama any more ... The plot and characters' actioins just don't make sense to me. I don't feel the relationship between the ML1 and FL is logical or emotionally developed. There doesn't seem to be chemistry between them. I feel it's contrived.
Story is getting predictable. Plot of double-crossing is getting old. Inha's father gave the biggest clue of all: Inha is like his father. LJY is a very good actor in this drama. His eyes ... wow ... show the psychotic and unpredictable tendency. It's easy to act as a straight good or a bad person. But harder to act as an evil/amoral person. He almost gives that Anthony Hopkins vibe in the Silence of the Lamb.
When it comes, it will pour ... So far Feb/March, I have nothing I want to see. Hoping for Mid-April. I think the wait is harder for people who have read the story. The other drama I am waiting for is The Double. I've read the story ...
Kind of expected from a thriller no? And this drama is pretty tame, it's only rated TV-14 here in Canada.
Yes, they exist. I am sure in every society we have them. We see them in the news ALLLLLL THE TIME so we don't need to be reminded of them. But presenting a in drama to cause a basic instinct response and possibly copycats is also a bad thing.
