Thank you so much for the article! This is my all time favorite trope so I always loving seeing good recommendations, especially one's that aren't based around jealousy. Definitely have a new couple dramas to add to my watchlist!
My personal favorite is My Unfamiliar Family! I think it gets the 'friends' aspect and the yearning of unrequited love just so perfectly. A lot of people overlook it since it's not strictly a romance k-drama, but I cannot recommend this show enough for everyone who like me loves friends to lovers.
this is such a fantastic idea! major props for the amount of work this must've taken, super excited to watch the drama I chose (and then perhaps come back and choose another lol). thank you!
Is it possible for you to make a character analysis on Gi-hun? You're really good at explaining and breaking down…
aw I'm honored! I'll definitely look into it if I have time, which I sadly don't have a lot of right now. Even if I don't make an article, you're 100% welcome to message me to talk about it if you like!
Sorry for the rant lol....Huh, I was quite puzzled how it took an SNU graduate to realize the stakes of the game;…
this is such a wonderful response! You bring up so many good points, especially the 10 dollar bill thing which I admittedly hadn't considered. I'm glad you liked my analysis too!
This was written beautifully. I loved it :) I love the way Sang Woo was written as a complex and interesting character.…
Thank you so much! I totally agree that he has such a fascinating character and I too love how he was written, but his actual personality is a whole other matter lmao.
I like your article but ( please dont take it personal its a general thought)I dont understand why I see articles…
Thank you, this is a good point! I think for me the difference is in how the people they were betraying acknowledged it. Like Ali was completely blindsided, but the old man knew in the end and willingly let it happen. This isn't to say that one is more justifiable than the other, I think that's just the reason people tend to focus on what Gi-Hun did far less than Sang Woo.
I have yet to see the show so I only read your opening and last bits. I wasn't too intrigued by the hype to pick…
I hope you find time to watch it! I think everyone has different opinions on his arc, but to me it was really fascinating to see. It's a more subtle corruption, and the nuanced way the show handles it is super interesting!
