this drama and second shot at love both give such old kdrama vibes, both dropping on the same day made me feel like i teleported back to 2018-2020 kdrama era lol!!! so nostalgic, i'm a fan. if only this was 16 eps, would've been the icing on the cake
the thing i liked about myung soohyun dramas is that in most of her dramas (monthly magazine home, drinking solo, a poem a day) there would a slice of life component with a central "theme" to each episode, usually driven by not just the story of the main leads but also the stories of the side characters. it added a poetic element to each episode, something to tie up the message that we all go through similar struggles, whether that be in terms of finding a home (MMH), finding a reason to relish in aloneness (DS), or finding art that reflects your feelings (APAD).
interestingly, i don't immediately see this particular component in Extremely Sensible Alcoholic. this drama also stands out because MSH doesn't usually write second-chance romance or childhood/high school connection, so it seems she is taking a new approach to her writing. even though there are some differences, I can still feel the heavy slice of life component that this drama will be driven on, there are many side characters that will definitely push the story forward, similar to the stories of the villagers in hometown cha cha cha.
I am enjoying it so far, because it's fresh but also seems familiar since I'm such a big fan of this screenwriter. I am looking forward to a wonderful healing journey between the leads filled with warming stories of our side characters and familial themes. hopefully we can also get a ha seok jin cameo lol, this drama is quite the antithesis to drinking solo.
Where did you watched it? I can't find it anywhere
i believe it's the one by @/drunkenimp on d-o! im not sure if the sub availability has changed since i watched but right now i am seeing english softsubs from this user posted under fune wo amu
Can i ask you please , what's wrong with young kwang ? I don't understand is he problematic towards his female…
Basically he has admitted to messing up kiss scenes to kiss an actress again, he has made sexist comments about women's legs and body shamed women with "fat legs", and he has said some very insensitive and rude things about actors who aren't popular or "not at his class". Overall a very weird man
cant believe knetz can show so much hate to someone using drugs but wont show the same energy to child predators and women abusers. the case of KSH getting backlash is so rare, as predators will usually continue to go untouched by the public
