So, watched episode 1. Very bloody....The "blurred" censorship is, odd.....Worried to delve in too deep. I do…
Moonlight Drawn By Clouds/Love in the Moonlight managed to have a nice HE after all the blood, politics and violence... still haven't found a k-historical drama that's as good as that one in terms of balancing the romance, comedy, politics, angst, and action... combining seriousness and fun without being slapstick, and tying everything up so well. Park Bo Gum deserved that Best Actor award for that brilliant Crown Prince portrayal.
It all depends on the way they execute it. The actors and writers give fuel to this trope, and it just comes down…
As i said, its not the plot progression but the character development and relationship progression that attracts me to this genre. I havent seen all of Se Young's works, but i enjoyed her chaotic physical comedy in The Law cafe and The Forbidden Marriage(though TFM suffered plotwise). Seen In Hyuk in My Roommate is a Gumiho and Kiss Goblin, and though his character was meh in MRIAG, Kiss Goblin showed real potential.
I have to admit i dont know how great their chemistry might be in this one(LSY's chemi with LSG>>>>>Kim Young Dae)... Lets see what happens with this drama.
The shame sh!t all over again.Rich ML, who is a narcissist and has trouble expressing his emotions. How many fucking…
It all depends on the way they execute it. The actors and writers give fuel to this trope, and it just comes down to how good they are. Trouble expressing emotions = ML actor must be a genius at microexpressions, which are always fascinating to watch if the actor can pull it off well. Narcissist = ML must have enough charisma to make us root for him, and writers must work to make us like him gradually. The role relies more on actions than words/flowery dialogues and also has to feature character growth, so I think that brings out good performances - again, it all depends on the actors and writers.
Bae In Hyuk did a wonderful job on Kiss Goblin with the emotions part, so I'm looking forward to this one. Honorable mentions to Yoo Seung Ho(I'm Not a Robot), Joe Cheng(It Started With a Kiss S1-S2), Marcus Chang(Lost Romance), Yamada Ryosuke(The Third Finger Offered to the King) and Park Seo Joon(What's Wrong With Secretary Kim) who pulled off the trope in all its glory.
^this! and the decision to have 2nd bro fall in love w her was so so forced. It felt like from the beginning he…
You are so right, but i think the writer made it pretty clear and used it as a contrast throughout. The way he got the ick when she mentioned sleeping together as more than sleeping together, the way he reacts to situations in such a sibling way, even the way he "proposed" to her - the whole dynamic he had with her from day one screamed platonic. There was absolutely nothing romantic with the way she behaved with him, too.
In total contrast, she's been "aware" of LX since her little childhood crush days LOL. The way he wouldn't let her on his bed, the way she also stuck to him, got jealous over him, and later the absolutely STARK difference in reaction to their proposals was enough to see she always had a little romantic door open for LX.
Watched it because I'm starved for good Republican era dramas that DON'T tear my heart apart, and it was a pretty good one. ML is SO HOT in that uniform
He stole hearts in While You Were Sleeping. If Lee Jong Suk wasnt the one defending his position as ML with all the flare and confidence he's known for, I'd have had a terrible case of Second Lead Syndrome
Why on earth is the rating so low? Im only on Ep 17 but the drama has stayed so strong all this time... 2023 has been a disappointing year for dramas but this one has me squealing giggling and kicking the air over how adorable the main leads are 😭😭 I love all the roles Zhang Jing Yu picks and this one is no less than the others!
how? you wanted a homecoming celebration? with balloons and shit?
Im not insane or twelve years old... im sure the writers were perfectly capable of making a more impactful ending scene - the one where he comes back just because he missed her was absolutely stunning... actually every tine he comes back, its been good and peak chemistry except for the last time. Just having him land on the roof and say oh hey he's grown up was honestly underwhelming
Ganghoon has the most tragic fate among all the kids. He suffered missing his dad and still he did his best anyway…
Yes... unlike Bongseok and Huisoo, he's been exposed to everything, and we aren't given complete exposure to his character. It's hard to say whether he'll turn out on the bad or good side, which is what worries and intrigues me.
The kids were all wonderful but Ganghoon kinda stole all my attention because of the way his story unfolds... and oh every single scene with him and his dad im in tears tears tears He better not turn out a villain or something or im going to end up a toral wreck
Came here for Zo In Sung and Han Hyo Joo, and neither disappointed... my only complaint would be that they underutilized their chemistry(ngl i couldnt care less about the kids' romance). Wish they made his homecoming better...
Do they end up together in the webtoon? Honestly I like how the drama ends up.
Its such a high intensity show, I dont think theyll turn it into a makjang XD Huisoo and Bongseok are pbviously going to be together forever its not that hard to guess
okay hear me out guys im 20 (like im 18+) and i wanna watch this drama (ive watched 18+ rated dramas like zombies…
all sorts of gory violence with all sorts of weapons(fists, knives, blades, clubs, guns, sticks, electricity etc.) and blood everywhere; camera doesnt spare you anything. If that's okay with you, you can handle it
I have to admit i dont know how great their chemistry might be in this one(LSY's chemi with LSG>>>>>Kim Young Dae)... Lets see what happens with this drama.
