Okay
Come And Hug Me Final thoughts:
*sssspoilerssss duh*
Shockingly not as bad as I was expecting. They sort of redeemed themselves and I wasn’t left feeling bitter. Although I still think up till the Annoying Reporter Lady died, it was a better show.
Good Things-
All Hyun Moo’s scenes. His A+ character development. Him not dying. His lines. My heart. Kim Kyung Nam, you have come a LOONG way from being a random extra in AOY.
Nak Won vs Crazy Dad and Crazy Lady. Uhm? When did you get so badass young lady!? I feel like I should nickpit this but I was just satisfied mostly hahaha
We all knew Nam Woo wasn’t gonna break before his dad, the confrontation was good but it probably could’ve packed more of a punch if the lead up was better and had it not been oh I don’t know, interrupted every 5 seconds by unnecessary flashbacks???
If the show hadn’t tried so hard to make us believe he was gonna snap (we all knew he wasn’t, show, don’t push it next time and make me annoyed and your writing less believable), I would’ve liked the final conflict better. I just felt the whole will he won’t he, oooh he’s a monster, and then his self realization that he isn’t was a bit… weak. And lacking in development. Especially for what is supposed to be such a nuanced lead. It was great when we finally got there but the lack of smarts in the last three episodes were very eye roll inducing.
But you didn’t overally screw up show. So, well done, I don’t have to drop a star ๐
Random Other-
OH GOSH FINALLY SOMEONE SHOT THE IDIOT HOLDING A GUN TO SOMEONES HEAD IN THE LEG do you know how annoyed I get in film and tv at how often that doesn’t happen? Yikes.
Would have it been more satisfying to watch our heroes set up a trap for Daddio and catch him that way, by baiting him and using him against himself, OR Nam Woo Yah just not bringing the hammer to the dog farm at all so that Dad gets zero satisfaction at all? Or both…? And which one was more in style with the show? *did our detectives do ANYthing smart ever…* ๐
FINAL CONSENSUS:
Did I throw anything? Uhm not really, although I lost emotional investment, and got impatient so while I didn’t LITERALLY throw anything… eh. \o.o/
He’s an extra. He’s in like one lecture shot hahahaha *I have the screenshots somewhere*
Then he was in Strongest Deliveryman. Then Wise Prison Living. Now this.
Have yet to see this weekโs eps but Iโm happy for Hyun-moo. I never thought heโd become my favorite character (I hated his guts in the earlier episodes) 2 weeks before the finale. ^^
Oh I never hated him. But I have an affinity for anti hero characters lol! I’m glad you ended up liking him so much. I was really happy with his arc. Probably the most happy compared to everyone elses tbh.
