You are right, of course. It is a great part, but few actresses could have brought it to life the way Nana did. Her energy and creativity were a joy to watch. Much of the range that you mentioned would not have been apparent in the hands of many other actresses. Great part, great actress. Fun to watch.

I think that we will one day find that Lee Elijah is secretly the sister of Han Hyo-joo. They both do this 'thing' with their eyebrows when they are the least bit surprised. Hard to explain. Both have lips that I would like to spend time with. (Sigh...)

Overall, I enjoyed this.
1. I had no interest at all in the plot line about Kang Do Chang's sister.
2. Oh Jung Se 'mailed in' his performance. Maybe he had a cold and was on medication. Or, could he have been thinking ahead to his part in It's Okay To Not Be Okay?
3. Jang Seung Jo's part seemed to diminish in the second half. I didn't actually count the minutes, but the drama started with his part being the prime focus, then suddenly Sun Hyun Joo and Ji Seung Hyun got increasing amounts of time. A few times I found myself wondering, "What happened to Jang Seung Jo?"
4. Lee Elijah -- God, she's beautiful. I would like a drama that has her in every scene. She would not have to say or do much. Just be there.
5. This was a detective/mystery, and the major plot line about the murders and the prosecutions unfolded nicely. In the end that was the most important consideration..
6. Due to issues 1, 2, and 3 listed above, I gave it an 8.0.

Only a quarter of the way through. This is my first exposure to Nana, and I am very impressed. The character in this story is a pretty standard trope, but she plays it with an intelligence that I don't believe I have seen before. Ditzy, but smart.

Park Sung Hoon, on the other hand, leaves me cold. He displays no personality whatsoever. Some commenters have stated that he was good in other things, but so far he seems to be portraying a block of wood.

Still, I have high hopes for future episodes.

I watched this due to my one-sided love affair with Lee Elijah. Nothing deep here. Just a light and fluffy story about two people finding love in spite of earlier trauma in their lives. Lee Elijah reminds me so much of Han Hyo-joo. As others have noted, the title makes no sense. I think that they were just trying to pull in a few extra customers wanting to see how it compares to My Sassy Girl.

Kim Yoon Jin is one of the world's finest actresses, but the pace of this is so slow that I am not sure I will be able to watch to the end. Be sure to watch through a server that allows FF.

I feel your pain. In fact, I feel it every time I watch one of these police dramas. :)

Just finished episode 10. How many times did Seo Do Won tell Han Seo Kyung to stay near him, only to have her off on her own in the very next scene? As far as the train goes, why couldn't the police order it not to leave the station? The writing is deteriorating rapidly. With only two more episodes, I guess I will finish, but I am not happy. I prefer dramas that leave me eager to watch the next episode, not dreading it.

Just finished episode 7. I am so tired of people in these dramas falling out of the sky onto the roof of cars. Don't they ever miss?

Thanks to everyone who replied. While watching Train, I keep thinking that it would be better with stronger actors in the lead rolls. Yoon Shi Yoon and Kyung Soo Jin are okay, but I suppose that Gong Yoo and Jun Ji Hyun would have broken the bank. :))

I am aware of that. Still, the ratings were dismal. The laws of economics are in play here. These programs are not charity work.

An 8.6 average rating is not bad. It is not up there with Hospital Playlist or It's Okay To Not Be Okay, but it is higher than 95% (I'm guessing) of dramas. That still does not guarantee that you will like it. Your genre preferences may steer you elsewhere, but most people seem to like it. If nothing else, you will get to admire Lee Elijah. Those lips: I would love to spend a weekend with them.

I just finished episode 5 and thought that I would check the television ratings in Korea. In the four years that I have been addicted to Kdramas, I have never seen ratings so low. I hope that someone made a profit. Train certainly deserved better.

Let me get this straight -- in Korea, if someone stabs you in the back, he won't be prosecuted if you fight back? I must be misunderstanding something.

Glad I could help.

Hmmm. Well, I just loaded it again. I placed "Real" in the search engine, clicked on "search," and a list appeared. I clicked on the one from 2017, and (wala) there it was. Of course, you have to click on the line above "cast."

I did not understand this at all, ergo did not give a hoot about any of the characters. Kim Soo Hyun did a terrific job. Lots of beautiful women. Why don't I see any of them in my city?

I just watched on Kissasian.sh

I just re-watched this on Kissasian.sh. Whoever did the subtitles does not speak English very well. Still a fun movie.

I know that not many people will agree with me, but I wish that Lee Bo Young could teach her husband to act as well as she does. I think that he is one of the worst in Kdrama.
