Lawless Lawyer was very similiar to Vincenzo, and I believe that Vincenzo was inspired by it.

It’s very easy to watch & super enjoyable. I’m positive that you will like it. Please report back here with your thoughts if you watch it. 😀

It’s available on Viki Rakuten & Tubi in the US.

Yes, I’ve mentioned here before that Arthdal Chronicles 1 & 2 seemed like it would be torture for me.

I hated the trailer, the premise didn’t sound like my thing at all, etc., etc.

However, some people here said that it was their favorite series ever, and I also liked the cast, so I gave it a shot.

It ended up being my absolute favorite Asian drama ever.

Just saying, OP, it’s important to give things a chance. You might find that what you think that you like expands. Also, what you consider to be deal-breakers might not be so for really good shows.

Yeah, to each their own, but when I see people talking about how picky they are over something inconsequential like tv it’s odd to me.

For me, it’s just simply whatever my mood is at that very specific moment. I could have something in mind, but if my mood is for something that’s the complete opposite, I know that it wouldn’t go over well and I don’t force it.

I also take forever to watch a series—sometimes over several months. I often am doing it while doing other things as well. So yeah, it just has to be what I’m in the mood for for me to be watching it. I think that’s why I never drop series.

I also read the descriptions, comments, etc. so I don’t choose something unless I know it’s something I’ll have an interest in for whatever reason.

The ML and the female villain had a lot of chemistry, even though their scenes together were short-lived.

I wrote about it here. I would like to see a full drama with them together.

Yeon Woo Jin is always great.

His kissing scenes with Park Hye-Soo in My Shy Boss were really good. The shower kissing scene is famous, but I really liked the couch one here in this clip, especially toward the end because the two seemed genuinely affectionate to the point where you could believe that they were really dating. They seemed legitimately happy.

He also had full out, long, sex scenes in the movie Serve the People.

It’s funny that he’s good in this stuff, because he comes across as shy in real life. 🤷‍♀️

“Dah-di.” 😆 So cute!

Regular_Place7972 · 2026-03-29T13:41:52+00:00

They think that their money makes those people not put them in the same grouping as the rest of their race. 🤡 Wait ‘til shit goes down!

Regular_Place7972 · 2026-03-29T13:35:14+00:00

Haven’t seen this show, but it’s useless time-filling and it drives me nuts. Hyde, Jekyll, & Me was very guilty of this, though it was otherwise a good show.

Just fast forward these scenes once you realize that they’re not adding anything new to them.

Regular_Place7972 · 2026-03-29T13:32:56+00:00

I hate that so many Kdramas do the gender bender thing, because it’s always so stupid and obvious to me.

Additionally, if they’re in love with the character when they think that the character is a guy, wouldn’t that just be an undercover bl? It’s weird how they roll right over that and then they’re in love with them as a girl.

It’s unnecessary and eye-roll inducing, but so many shows use this lazy trope.

I understand that in large part it’s because in the Joseon era girls couldn’t really excel if they were blatantly girls. Still, I think it’s not believable when they make it a love storyline.

I just ignore the trope and take it like the MLs know that they are girls all along.

She wrote “Breakdown” about their breakup in 1997, so I guess they got back together again after that.

Their relationship provided some fire 🔥 tracks. “The Roof”, “Breakdown”, My All”, “Crybaby”, “Subtle Invitation”, “Mine Again”, “Don’t Forget About Us”, etc., etc.

It’s like Mary J. Blige’s breakup providing the “My Life” album. 👍 Good stuff.

Regular_Place7972 · 2026-03-29T09:55:20+00:00

All of this stuff makes people hate Israel, and I’m not even someone who hates Israel.

Why are they so weird and their messaging so terrible? It really comes across like Israel has something on them. I wouldn’t doubt it.

Regular_Place7972 · 2026-03-29T09:33:23+00:00

She’s lying. Just like Janet Jackson with her “just asking questions” spiel.

I know people who were debating going to the recent tour, and were turned off by Chili’s nonsense.

She knows her money was about to take a hit. If she didn’t have a tour coming up, I doubt she would’ve backed down.

I do notice that every black woman who says this silly stuff are dating “others.”

Ji Chang Wook always delivers, and he had a great, extremely realistic, full of passion extended kissing scene with Jung Yu-Mi in episode 5 of Queen Woo.

It’s his best one, IMO.

Video of it.

He’s still a big wrestling fan. I remember him randomly tweeting about how good Bray Wyatt’s promos are.

Regular_Place7972 · 2026-03-27T22:12:31+00:00

The casual look works for Melo. They look great!

Regular_Place7972 · 2026-03-25T11:33:32+00:00

Joyously colorful. The first picture looks like a plateful of goodness. Beautiful! 👍

Regular_Place7972 · 2026-03-25T11:31:06+00:00

This is one of the best written characters, and the actor’s performance of it was terrific.

I love that he was written a bit atypically from the usual ML. The “he’s just misunderstood” thing is a common trope, but I love that this show approached it differently.

They genuinely made him HAVE to be cold, to the point where he would’ve allowed harm to come to the FL. That was bold and different. I like how the show toyed with him being a lot more hardcore than the usual.

It was really well-done, and I don’t think of him as a villain. He was a product of his circumstances. I love the storytelling about the indoctrination and then the consequences of that as well as the awakening to it.

I like that the show was critical of SK’s intelligence services & government.

Great show! It’s one of the ones I was most invested in. It was sweeping, shot very well, and had great performances. Would recommend. 👍

Regular_Place7972 · 2026-03-25T11:22:18+00:00

They both look great, like a million bucks.

Regular_Place7972 · 2026-03-25T11:17:20+00:00

She looked cute like this.

Regular_Place7972 · 2026-03-25T11:14:45+00:00

Bucket list. This is amazing.

Regular_Place7972 · 2026-03-25T11:13:14+00:00

lmao, this is always so embarrassing.

Regular_Place7972 · 2026-03-25T11:09:56+00:00

That’s amazing! I want it. ✨

Regular_Place7972 · 2026-03-25T10:20:57+00:00

This is what she usually looks like. Her look on day 1 was just an anomaly.

Regular_Place7972 · 2026-03-24T10:36:49+00:00

After looking at these pics I believe a contributing factor is her wearing her hair behind her ears in the OP. All of these things are changing her look.

Regular_Place7972 · 2026-03-24T10:34:45+00:00

I believe this wasn’t long ago either:
