I've enjoyed a decent good first half but after that it started to fell off for me. The action scenes were ridicolous…
felt the same way ... and I said it after ep 9 ... it started well, promising, but halfway through it seemed to deflate like a balloon ... they focused more on romance in the second half and all the action (or intrigue) built at the beginning was gone ... too bad for the first half which was really entertaining
I'm in love! - imagine having a nightmare and when you wake up and open your eyes the nightmare is real and right in front of you ... and then the whole scene in Il Do's room was like a dance between them ... it sounds weird ... but all their movements seemed to have some kind of harmony there - I thought it was a very artistic scene (and the eye contact between the two ... very intense) - and the end of episode 12 with close ups on each of the 3 faces ... superb ... each of the 3 actors have superb facial expressions ... - I have to admit that after this series I declare myself a fan of Huh Joon Ho ... each of the 3 main actors plays very well ... but he excels ... he actually ones this role
- now...that's what I call good drama - even the actor who played Dong Ju / Seonghyeon young played well - and the scene where Il Do hit the car with the 3 of them into the abyss (with his car) - the look between Il Do as he looks at Seonghyeon and the look of the desperate little Seonghyeon as he looks back at Il Do and cries ... and they all fall into the void .................. priceless
- so we have a series about 2 psychopaths who feel like they are the same, but who make each other's life miserable and therefore punish each other. My guess is that the old psychopath became a psychopath because of her, because before he met her I think he was just an extremely dedicated doctor, but she managed to transform him. - somehow it's clear from the beginning that she can't control herself, that she wants all the attention to be just for herself, and yes she was an extremely talented and dedicated medical student (kind of a prodigy), maybe that's where her vanity and arrogance come from - but the fact that she starts killing like she's eating candy... seems a bit exaggerated to me, and the fact that Deok Hui accepts and understands it and isn't scared of her behavior seems a bit exaggerated as well. and then he starts to kill like he's eating candy ... so normal ... and all the crimes seem so absurd ... I mean, he clearly has an admiration for her talent, he probably worked his whole life to get where he is now, and she makes absolutely everything perfect out of her talent because she's a prodigy ... so yes... admiration... maybe a little jealousy... maybe... but it seems to me that more than anything he wants to accept her as she is just for her talent - it is clear that she has no other feelings other than revenge, irritation and obsession on Deok Hui - and I really don't understand Yeong Ju's role... he's always by her side, does absolutely everything she says, everyone pushes him out of any discussion - he always has to sit outside, or at another table... etc. - but it's definitely not a movie about the student and the teacher because we're not shown that deep relationship ... it's more like this is how you are, this is how I am... and that's it - and in every episode somebody dies - so somehow it seems like we're talking about a serial killer who also operates underground - on the black market - I have mixed feelings about this series.
- Is it just me or was it much more promising in the beginning, and now it seems to have softened towards the end? - I think ML and FL have dimples chemistry ... they are so sweet together when they smile
I'm still waiting for them to show us the connection with the nickname of the white snake... it's not just about the hair ... I guess ... And the intern .... Ohhhhhhh ... Baby ........ Such a baby :))))))))))))) ... But I love that they don't get mad at him ... They actually understand that he is an intern and doesn't know anything ... That is nice for a team
It is one of the oldest K-drama tricks - to make the main leads believe they are siblings and therefore add on…
it would be something to be Deokhui's son, and Eunnam to be adopted ... But that would mean that they could still be together ... Ufffff ..... Still don't like Eunnam especially because she has no action until episode 11
- so it's clear: Dong Ju is Il Do's child - even Deok Hui confirmed this when she said that that picture, that day, she took it/(agreed to it) for him (Il Do) - ooooooooooo ... but I liked that just when Hui Cheol (Prosecutor) thought to have some self-respect and throw Eun Nam out, that's when Dong Ju realizes that Eun Nam better not get a divorce because they can't be together anymore anyway ... oh well ... they're not brothers, but they're still cousins ................... finally - everything is clear ... she's useless - and the beginning of the episode with the scene where Yeom Jang Seon breaks Il Do's head ... and with the blood flowing from his head, but he erases that piece of metal that has the title on it .... :))) ... savage .... frustrating ... Il Do is just a pawn
I didn't understand how chu seonghyeon is related to chairman family. Why his daughter is so scared of that.
so ... if Dong Ju is the kid of Il Do then he has the right to lead the company ... just like Guk Hui said - when Deok Hui (Il Do's wife) was pulling her hair - she left her kids in the US so they wouldn't get in the way of Il Do's way to the throne ... (she said for Il Do's kid Tae Yun ... but ... first comes Il Do)
I didn't understand how chu seonghyeon is related to chairman family. Why his daughter is so scared of that.
well, the picture shows us how Chu SeongHyeon (or our beloved DongJu) is sitting in the arms (lap) of Il Do's wife ... and it was given to him an old Daesan Group badge ... because it was from years ago - and that means that he was family ... so ... at this point, I think Dong Ju is Il Do's kid .... this is what I got from this episode ... I may be wrong ...
- still love Seo Myeong Ju - she's a crazy bitch but she own's it - and then the moment when all the children in the class participated in the cleaning ... it was a beautiful moment - a connection was created
- Eun Nam is a worm ... not even a humanbeing ... I hope she crawls under a rock and stays there ... she has no role in this series - it's episode 9 and she hasn't done anything ... an action - apart from the one in the first episode when she married Hui Cheol (Prosecutor) - I think Il Do didn't kill DongJu because he heard his son Tae Yun telling DongJu on the hospital bed that he knew Il Do didn't call the ambulance and I think he was somehow ashamed (that his son found out the truth, that he tried to kill DongJu and he doesn't want to bring his into this mess) ... I think maybe he loves his son - then Il Do taking out on Boss (the one that came fisrt in Dong Ju's room to kill him) ... shows us an extremely frustrated Il Do - somehow Il Do doesn't have Jang Seon's character - to know clearly what he wants - ... Il Do knew that he had to have all the power after his father retired - because that's the norm, the child takes over the business, so somehow it's his right... and how can someone else come before him? .... therefore was brought into the situation by Jang Seon ... but he as a character is not No. 1 but rather No. 2 - the way Kong Jong Ja yelled at Deok Hui - stop pulling that crazy Guk Hui's hair - another stupid character - and she listened ........... so Kong Jong Ja it's not just the family butler - then we found out that Yeom Jang Seon knows who is Chu SeongHyeon - aka DongJu ... pam pam - the fact that President Lee CheolYoung said that DongJu is a dangerous guy and stopped Yeom Jang Seon from killing DongJu ..... well ... that's something - I love the transparency in this series ... Dong Ju knows that both Jang Seon and Il Do wants him dead, they sey it loud and clear, and now also them know that he wants revenge : - " I'll kill you when your life is worth enough to satisfy my revenge. " - isn't that refreshing? - I still love the looks between Il Do and DongJu (DongJu is invading Il Do's personal space by coming to his room )
Finally, we got the long - awaited happy ending! ... - but... the kidnapping scene seemed a little forced to me ... I don't know why... it just felt a little extra, especially after cutting the veins - I really can't hate Kim Su Hyeon, it seems to me that he simply missed his chance, but he really had beautiful feelings for DaOn, and the fact that he had the strength to give up on him - when he said: "what right do I have to stay by your side?" and the fact that he asked for forgiveness from DaOn for his behavior shows that he actually understood that he lost because of his passivity, and that, only comes from the mind and heart of a man who has feelings of love for someone - of course there were some clichés: DaOn had to leave for 1 year, the meeting of the two on the crosswalk ........... THE RINGS - major cliché ...... and the ending, the last scene ... that Ju Seong Hyeon met DaO n first and helped him even then ... it's like he's his guardian angel, from beginning till the end ...... If this isn't a cliché, then ... - but it is definitely an exceptional BL that was worth every second - I think the actors did a wonderful job, and the whole crew
You know the worst shit i ever heard, jaemin said that he doesn't want to dating daon because they maybe break…
that's right... he said this, that he prefers not to start a relationship with DaOn because he knows that they will break up, therefore he controls his life from all points of view ................... but that means he has an idea of what he is like as a person ... meaning he is aware of his behavior, but prefers (chooses) to be a shit .... this is no longer about narcissism, or toxicity - the manipulation results from the fear of the thought that they will break up - ... this is just a shit mind ... shit shit shit
I think I'm missing something ... so ...Jae Min tells DaOn as his blood spurted from his veins: " you give your heart anyone who's nice to you ... I was alwayas looking out for you ... I sacrificed so much for you ... But you don't need me anymore? How could you abandon me? Stop making me miserable" .......................................................................... but in episode 2 DaOn confesses his love to Jae Min ... and Jae Min rejects him ... something doesn't add up
I get it that Jae Min is shit, (and also Su Hyeon) but the ending ... sooooooooooooooooo soooooooooooooooo unnecessary
- imagine having a nightmare and when you wake up and open your eyes the nightmare is real and right in front of you ... and then the whole scene in Il Do's room was like a dance between them ... it sounds weird ... but all their movements seemed to have some kind of harmony there - I thought it was a very artistic scene (and the eye contact between the two ... very intense)
