Well, I'm writing it in context of the article and what the production teams claims. If remaking a movie into a drama is what they see as "fresh ideas" then their standard is pretty low.

I have no problems with adaptations, but then they should not act as if it's a new fresh groundbreaking idea for a show, when it's not.

Yeah but I would not trust that company about anything. Getting a contract that will give him additional 2 years of work, he could gain more programmer skills and slowly look for a better job. I would be scared they will just fire me while selling the company off, after using my technology hahaha

there are pure intentions, and there is being stupid hahaha it's about him being able to support his family... not just him being greedy.

yeah but like... he decided to "help" he can also gain some benefits 🤣

I don't get why Choi Ban Seok is not negotiating and getting himself more from that detecting system?

He could EASILY secure himself a reassignment to a development team in other of Hanmyung's units after fixing the dishwashers and dealing with the sell off 🤣

I'd be like: bish, you can use my technology, but first lets sign an official legal agreement that I will be moved to a development team in different unit after sell off. And lets add to that: you can't fire me for first 2 years after reassignment.

Bish has all the power now, and he is not using it. It's his own system that was not created in the workplace but his own home, using his own items and pieces of equipment so unless he agrees for the Hanmyung to use it, they cannot just take it away. They would easily agree to give him secure work place, if it means dealing with the losses of $$ they are about to face 🤣🤣

The contest aims to recruit fresh ideas from rookie to veteran writers < fresh ideas they said, as they asked them to write a drama version of already existing story 🤣

That's the problem with dramas lately: we get, ramakes, remakes of remakes, 4 seasons of the same story, movie and drama version of the same story...

I mean, he is still straightwashed, even tho he did not end up with any of the girls. They were really cleared with making sure he was shown to have feelings to Young Ran in the past.

it's impossible to predict if you would like it as much as I did coz it was so dumb, or you would hate it and want to (┛ಠ_ಠ)┛彡┻━┻
I think i was in a right mood to watch it: tired from work, with cold beer and just chillin trying to get entertained 🤣

yeah first two episodes were good 🤣
but then all the deep meaning good content is only a background and the romance becomes the focus. I would advise to watch more episodes before calling people out on criticising the romance 🤣

Same here. I truly don't mind So Bin. The worst part is, at the beginning they set up quite a few nice conflicts for her that would be perfect way to build a character development on, but it never happened, and the conflicts either just disappeared or were solved by other people and not her...
Which is sad, coz she could have worked, if the writers cared about her as an individual character and not just love interest for Yeo Joon :(

yeah... in what dystopian world being adult means working with and going to a bar with someone who assaulted you? For me, this just sends a wrong message. They made these characters commit criminal acts, not some minor teen mistakes, and then acted as if it's not a big deal and they should just put it in the past.

There is a difference between having difference of opinions (like they did during the 1st project) and assaulting someone and exploiting another person on a live broadcast 🙃

Overall, yes. And I blame the writers and director with making that romance happen. They used some scenes that happened with Yeo Joon and Soo Hyun in webtoon (the ones that made them trust each other more and open to each other) and used them for Yeo Joon and So Bin... but it was not enough to build the whole romantic relationship on.
They also had to still make Soo Hyun one that Yeo Joon's opens up to, coz this is literally the center and integral part of the webtoon, people would riot if they changed that 🤣
And it leave So Bin and Yeo Joon's relationship in this weird area... where he should trust her more and open to her... but he can't open to her before he opens to Soo Hyun... So what is this poor girl suppose to do? 🙃

Well... Yeo Joon went radio silence for that night coz he was almost beaten up by his dad - it's not like he ignored her coz he went out with friends. After that he was not exactly in psychological and emotional state to talk to anyone. Soo Hyun called So Bin, so she knew Yeo Joon is safe at home.
Being in a relationship also means respecting when your partner needs some time to figure shit out and not trying to force the answers from them. Especially in YJ's situation - he was not emotionally capable after the incident to face reality and his new situation so how could he possibly communicate with So Bin.

Not everyone wants to talk, not everyone wants to be persuaded to get back on their feet as everything is okay. I myself rather be left alone. If I want to talk, I will, but people trying to do it to cheer me up etc just makes it worse.
I;d say Yeo Joon is similar. When he is ready, he does the talking, but if someone tries to get the answers or actions out of him, he will back off. Since they are friends who live together, Soo Hyun knows when and what to do.

Excuse me, but if they are suppose to work in the same teams, it means So Bin will be forced to work with the dude that tried to get her drunk and do god knows what?
And Yeo Joon will have to work with guys that beat the fuck out of him?
This is exactly my problem with the drama 🤣

Putting her there would be dumb. Coz he has no evidence against her and officially she makes no decisions in the foundation so even if they found out the money from donations was used for the 5 people's gain and not the project, there still would be no proof she was part of it. And since she would be prosecuted for it, getting innocent verdict, she could not be put on trial for the same crimes again. So basically he would give her "free from jail" card if he accused her now. (i think, i cannot be sure. in a lot of countries you cannot prosecute a person twice for the same crime, but i am not 100% sure it's the same in Korea).

It's strong bromance but the link between the leads might make someone feel off about said bromance (me being one of these people 🤣)

Jung Sun Ah might save Yo Han coz she is obsessed in a pathological sense. There is a difference between care and obsession.
And if Yo Han care for her in any way, they better give some good back story, coz for now... it would make no sense with the few scenes they shown.

thoughts on episode 6, a bit long 🙃

So... Sun Ah was an obsessive scary bitch since she was a child... oh well... I was hoping they would go in a different direction but whatever...

I'm sorry but they have to address Ga On still living with Yo Han. Coz... they didn't and it's pissing me off. They need to give it a reasonable reason for Ga On, Yo Han and all the people involved. This is ridiculous 🤣 if it's the "they did not find who place the bomb" deal... nah.

I don't mind Ga On as other people do, but him taking Elijah out was just wrong. Someone obviously targets Yo Han, so taking his underage niece out without his approval etc. is just infuriating. And honestly speaking, he should have told Elijah what the "meeting" is about from the start and not corner her like that. It's not like she can just leave if she feels uncomfortable in that situation.

Both Yo Han's and Elijah's reactions were completely valid. First, Yo Han had every right to get pissed as fuck, I would punch Ga On across the face, so for me he was calmer than I would be 😂
Elijah being pissed at Yo Han is also valid. She clearly years for independency (hence the whole I am not a child I will be 20 in 4 years), but then Yo Han comes in treating her as a child without any say about what is happening towards and around her. At that moment she had no one around her who understood her and truly thought about her feelings.

I get the frustration people had with Ga On this ep. I still believe he has no idea what he wants and what he thinks. He hears something, does not try to process it at all and just believes it - no matter what the source is. He believed Min Jung Ho so he agreed to spy on Yo Han, he believe Sun Ah about the fire ad he suspected Yo Han, he believed Young Ok's story about how Yo Han was as a child so he suspected Yo Han more, he believed Yo Han's story about the fire so he apologized, he believed Elijah's story about the hard drive so he tried to investigate it more. All of these stories CANNOT be true, but he does not even try to determine who is telling the truth, he just believes last person he hears from. I think they should start to hint that he is beginning to make his own judgement and not believe everyone around him... We are 6 episodes in, I don't want later to get last minute character development. Instead of asking others questions, he should try to answer them himself. When he thought for himself he got closer to figuring out it's the foundation that's behind it all (hence he asked the ex-police dude how much he got from foundation), but now he is back to square one - instead of asking Min Jung Ho who might follow him, he should ask himself "How might want to follow Min Jung Ho and what they might gain from it?".

You know what this remind me: Beyond Evil and how Joo Won was SO SURE Dong Shik was the culprit, even if the evidence did not match his theory, he made is work with elaborate bullshit explanations. He was just so sure, and he investigated not with the thought of catching the true killer, but with catching Dong Shik.

ALL THAT SAID, we cannot say Ga On fucks up and he should start trusting Yo Han 🤣 Why the fuck would he? Yo Han says nothing, shares nothing, denies nothing. Instead of saying: bitch it ain't me, someone is clearly trying to put us against each other, he throws Ga On across the room AND THEN tries to say he did nothing🤣 Trust is earned, and Yo Han does nothing to even seem remotely trustworthy hahahaha Even the court cases, I get he is the main judge, but he still should discuss shit with Ga On and Jin Joo, ot at least inform them about his decisions - they have no say in what cases are taken, they don't even know what the verdict is until Yo Han gives it during the live court. They don't know what witnesses he brings and what strategy he takes. There is literally no reason for anyone to trust Yo Han and it is in a huge part his own fault. Yo Han be like; I did nothing for you to trust me and believe my words, I've been shady and keeping secrets from the start, but it's YOUR problem for not believing me. Sure, but then dear Yo Han don't get angry when he keeps suspecting you and investigating your shit hahahaha

Also, Min Jung Ho? Clearly asshole evil greedy ass.

I have not seen episode 6, so I'm basing my opinion of first 5, but I never saw Ga On being presented as morally strong character. From the start he was shown as someone easily swayed by external factors without his own strong stance - brave idiot I would say. I think his whole arc is slowly gaining autonomy and making his own judgements that are not influenced by other people.

As for staying I think it's just to please the fans with bromance.
