I'm here again debating whether to rewatch... the drama has an interesting premise. I love the concept of the whole story revolving around the aviation industry, and I kinda wanna watch again just because of that. However, so many things in this fricking story make no sense whatsoever and I can't get myself to watch it again knowing that those cringe things are up ahead. Such a pity really, because I love the actors and love the concept... just wish the writing had been better
This is horrible.... I love CEJ and SWJ to death, despite what everyone says I don't think they're being annoying. At least, that was Ep 13 for me. Imagine you're in their situation, I think their reactions were pretty normal. They're people after all. But then, Ep 14 happened.....
A boycott? Sorry What??? What is this? Seriously? And CEJ went along with it? Thank god SWJ didn't. At this point, it feels like the writers are throwing out CEJ's character now that KDJ is back. People were worried they'd throw out KDJ but no, it seems CEJ has been chosen as the lamb to be offered up for slaughter. It seems hard to give her a redemption arc now, or at least one which leaves people satisfied.... Couldn't she and SWJ have talked just a second longer? It would be a miracle if they manage to bring her back from the other side.... well. Plainly, I don't think that will be possible.
I feel like my favourite series is being ruined. And I think that the boycott should have never been written
I didn't watch season 1 but I don't hate KDJ. I don't think he's completely in the wrong even though I clearly favour the s2 cast over him. However, I think he should never have been a leader without someone with actual people skills by his side. I think he's at fault here as well. Implementing that system was the right thing to do, but not explaining? Not communicating? Maybe that's his character, but then he shouldn't have been a leader. People skills are important as well. Skills aren't the only thing. People who only have hard skills and no soft skills shouldn't be leaders.... maybe my opinion will change, but that's what I'm thinking as of now.
I was excited at the end of EP 13. It could have gone well. Everything could have easily been sorted out. But now. A boycott. And a wildfire of all things? I seriously don't like where the writing is going. EP 9 and 10 were heavenly (though sad). EP 11 and 12 I liked a lot as well, because I can seriously relate to CEJ when it comes to her mum. I'm not at that age yet, but I already know that my mum will be like that as well. So I appreciated that. As well as other things. I really like Jang Donghwa's developments. It was all going so well. But then... a boycott??? Because of that I skipped through a lot of the episode. And my blood is boiling, literally.
It was kind of ridiculous…. But I somehow still enjoyed it? If you completely ignore your common sense then it is really enjoyable, but as soon as you start thinking about the details… This thing is really terribly written…. Wish there were more dramas on the aviation industry, though. It makes for an interesting setting. And oh my god the propaganda in the end there… As a Chinese person myself, I’m used to all the propaganda, but this really made me cringe so much…
Yoon Dong Hoon was an undercover agent. So y did the detectives at beginning followed and taunted his daughter…
Maybe they didn't know? Cause like it would have probably compromised the whole operation if too many people knew about it. Him being an undercover agent wasn't even in his police file so I'm sure not a lot of people knew about it. I'm not sure myself though.
I really really liked this drama! It had a pretty interesting premise and I love Jiwoo and Pildo. That being said, I think this series could have been even better, if it had been a bit longer. This series had so much potential to be something more, something really big, in my opinion, but it wasn't. It's great the way it is and for its length, don't get me wrong, I just think they could have gotten even more out of it. But maybe that's just me. I think they could have delved deeper into the whole thing and elaborated more on... well... basically everything: the operation, police force work, Jiwoo in the police force etc. (This could be because I went into this series thinking it was the standard 16 episodes length. I only realised that it was 8 episodes long by episode 6).
I'm on episode 10 rn, and I really love this drama. Unfortunately, I got spoiled. And once I saw the fight scene with Danggu and Choyeon (it breaks my heart thinking that Danggu probably will start hating Mudeok and maybe even Uk and Yul, friendships breaking because of betrayal or misunderstandings have always been the one of the things I hate the most, the absolute most, and which break my heart into a million tiny little pieces. If this happens in a drama, I literally do not get closure EVER until it is resolved in the drama, and if it's not, well.................................... I die (because of a frickin drama at that)). After seeing that and her stabbing Uk, I couldn't stop myself from reading recaps of EP 20. Needed to know what was happening, or the gist of it, it actually pained me to not know what was happening in those scenes. Finding out what actually happened kinda made it worse though xD. Now I really really really don't want to continue this series anymore. Youtube Shorts ruined it for me, and then I ruined it for myself even further. THE PAIN. And I didn't even get to witness all the lovey-dovey build-up I read about. It was all starting to get so good as well! *sigh* Must distract myself or else I will fall apart because of a frickin drama... I'm ranting... I know but I really needed to write this down. Maybe I'll be able to muster up the courage to continue this series when the second season comes out and I inevitably get spoiled about the ending of that as well. Maybe it will actually calm me down a bit.
The ending felt rushed tbh.... It would have been better to do it properly. Made me wonder whether the ending is real or a figment of her imagination. They could have shown scenes of them getting rescued for example (those where everything is silent and slow motion etc) and maybe shown a short scene of him waking up in the hospital or something. Then they could have cut to the ending they had here. Otherwise, I really enjoyed the show :) The romance, though slow, and the way they worked together was really cute.
At ep 12 rn liking it so far but this series is promoting communism...
well not surprising? i'm chinese so i'm not like prejudiced or anything but like the country and it's government LOVES trying to brain wash its population. Why is everyone acting like this is so not normal? The moment I saw what period this drama is set in, I already had an inkling as to what it would be promoting. This is pretty much the norm. Honestly, propaganda like this makes it hard for me to watch historical stuff but *sigh* what can you do....
A boycott? Sorry What??? What is this? Seriously? And CEJ went along with it? Thank god SWJ didn't. At this point, it feels like the writers are throwing out CEJ's character now that KDJ is back. People were worried they'd throw out KDJ but no, it seems CEJ has been chosen as the lamb to be offered up for slaughter.
