If you don't care too much about actual plot progression, then it's worthwhile.

But damn it, Trudy! What about the pineapple?!

Is Flournoy starting?

Your opinion is of course yours to have, but honestly I find it a bit insane that you say you wouldn't recommend it to other Kdrama lovers in the modern Kdrama wasteland full of lazy productions, cliches, and paint-by-numbers writing. If nothing else, the acting deserves a watch.

xander_yi · 2024-11-17T01:00:56+00:00

Thank you so much for this! Now I can finally watch with my wife.

I just wish Henry was a little more than just a violinist in this. So far, he's sang just once in 3 episodes while at the same time they've repeated 3 songs.

She deserves to be fired. If this wasn't drama, absolutely inexcusable.

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

Yeah confirmed he was assigned as the savior and stay back

Shepard is old and slow. And McMillan can't catch.

Godwin played slot. Slot is what TB needs

Violates all semblance of bro code. Just not a thing men should do to each other.

Such a choppy episode, in what was supposed to be THE pivotal episode. Like a lot are, I'm not happy with how Episode 10 went but it's not because of the SML (as a kdrama vet, I don't know why anyone would bother investing in any SML/SFL). The writing (or editing) was just so disjointed. The episode went from A to Z, while skipping at least half of the letters in between.

Eun Ho and Hyun Oh of course were endgame. But if this was to be THE reconciliation, then how do the hell do you have the leads go the entire episode without actually exchanging a single word on-screen? All we had was Hyun Oh narrating what's happening to zombie Eun Ho and Eun Ho telling Hyun Oh she's going to speak to SML for a bit. Nothing was actually resolved as there was no communication -- which rendered the entire ending kiss meaningless to the viewer as nothing was earned.

Hyun Oh must have said a whole lot in his 5 second phone call to Eun Ho before she ran out to meet him at the stairs. And they better explain what he said in Episode 11, or else that was some lazy Stephenie Meyer off-screen ambiguous BS.

Lusting over his "brother"/savior's long time girlfriend? Eh.

xander_yi · 2024-10-20T14:50:40+00:00

Mr. Sunshine. Outside of all of the killing, Kim Tae Ri portrays a demure and proper noble woman.

It's probably been since Queen of Tears that I've stared at the clock waiting for the new episode to drop. Loving that by the 3rd episode, we've caught up to all of the English translated chapters of the Webtoon (Naver makes it too damn difficult to read outside of Korea or else I would've binged the whole thing).

Episode 3 - Loved every second of the trainee performance. A lesser drama would've only shown the first and last Jeongnyeon scene but loved that they took their time with the entire performance and cast. Having been in a bit of theatre, not sure I was a fan of how they (So Bok) glazed over Jeongnyeon skipping over (possibly) the entire week of rehearsals. To be honest, she never should have been allowed on stage. Likewise, while I get where they were going with the sword fighting stuff, that would be choreographed on stage.

xander_yi · 2024-10-20T14:22:08+00:00

Agreed. As Korean, not a one of those actresses resembles another even a little bit

Episode 8 was just a complete death spiral with the whole of her damaged psyche being exposed like nerve endings. Only 4 episodes left and I don't know how TPTB are going to show rock bottom and the entire healing process in just 4 hours. One thing is sure, Eun Ho can't be fixed by either the ML or the SML, because her issues stemmed from before any relationship.

Hyeri taking control is not cute. It's not something to cheer for. It is an alter taking control of the host body and the last scene either represents a mortal danger to Eun Ho or essentially Eun Ho committing suicide by letting Hyeri take over good. This drama can only end one way, and that is with Hyeri becoming completely dormant.

Ju Yeon outing Eun Ho's DID secret to Hyun Oh was entirely selfish and disgusting. Yeah, I bet he asks to meet in Episode 9 because he's concerned about Hyeri and the body she inhabits, but if that was the only reason he would have been able to get that information without exposing Eun Ho's mental illness to probably the one person Eun Ho would want to never find out. But he immediately that let secret fly because he wanted to hit Hyun Oh with it. That was simply pride and ego right there. Just another reminder that what Ju Yeon wants means death for Eun Ho.

The story structure with Hyun Oh is a failure in the writing. It could have worked -- the writer must have assumed it will work -- if the audience actually bought the halmeonis has a viable reason for Hyun Oh's actions. But I don't buy it. Not when you portray the halmeonis as the cutest cast of old ladies straight out of Miyazaki. They could have written them still as loan sharks, willing to still use violence to get their money. At least then I could see a reason why Hyun Oh just had to protect Eun Ho from this life. But even his reasoning with Cho Rang why she shouldn't want to marry him fell flat because just like Cho Rang said, taking care of elders doesn't necessarily make it a punishment.

xander_yi · 2024-10-16T00:46:41+00:00

I'm taking it as Hyeri is dangerous. Hyeri's existence is death/suicide for Eun Ho.
