Started off with a blast. There are lots of familiar actors among the cast, and the premise is intriguing. I already have a dozen unanswered questions. I love the cinematography; the color palette is warm and old-school. The fashion and style are typical of the 80s, and the lighting has been done well. I love listening to LDH's Seoul accent alongside GMS's Gwangju accent. It's not going to be a light show. There are already violent flashbacks and evil politics. It centers around Korean youth's fight for democracy. Male Lead: Lee Do Hyun never disappoints. He's playing a very different role from his previous projects. His acting is, as always, on point and captivating. He is the son of a villain and always plays the cool kid, but there are small hints to his vulnerable side.Female Lead: I've never seen Go Min Si before in a drama, but she's also doing really well. She's a strong woman, unafraid to stand up to harassment. But she has a sweet smile and a quirky side we only saw a bit of. I like how they'r setting up the complexity of all the main characters. These are not going to be one-dimensional personalities. You can see they both have vulnerable sides that they keep buried deep inside. They both have family issues, it's going to be very interesting to see how things play out. Lee Sang Yi and Geum Sae Rok have also piqued my interest already. This cast has amazing chemistry.Can't wait to see how things play out!

Howling with laughter, swooning over the leads' chemistry, getting creeped out by the villain... this drama blends the romance, comedy, mystery and thriller genres so so smoothly. Things are heating up, ML is passively admitting that he likes FL LOL I wish the Matchmaking Club all the best. A new twist at the end of the episode that heightens the thriller elements. I just don't know how time passes. The entire cast is ultra-talented, pulling off everything perfectly, with beautiful chemistry.

ahhh the writers really know how to indulge the viewers. we get an intensely adorable resort/picnic trope and all the actors did their parts so well!! Content Concerns: Nothing big. A character gets very drunk.

Young Lady and Gentleman Episode 9

Well, we all knew what would happen... but it was still fun watching it. Little Lee Sejong carried this episode for me. The cute little guy was so good, tearing me up with his weeping, the apprehensive way in which he ventures into the big, busy world. Finally, Cha Gun seems to be starting out as a major character. Sa Ra is as annoying as always. This us one drama where I don't mind the tropes at ALL. The main leads are soooo CUTE together, they make me melt into a sugary mess every time they do something cute together. The end of the episode was a huge reward for faithful YG-DD(YoungDan?) shippers.
