    Episode 2 was unwatchable.

    Despite this I watched – for you. I accept gratitude in a variety of ways including alcohol, chocolate and your unthinking obedience.

    This episode spent a full half hour on flashbacks that tell us nothing about the two main characters other than he’s rich and she’s poor.

    The other half hour, they woke up. That’s it.

    I’m not entirely sure how they did disappear for 20 years or why the broadcast network covered it up – or what they were even covering up in the first place.

    And, like, if your child disappeared for 20 years and suddenly reappeared it should be a really powerful moment no matter how dumb the premise. But instead it was just flailing and shrieking and every scene that could have had some emotional resonance or would make us care about any of these characters was undercut by broad, heavy-handed slapstick.

    Reunited Worlds did this better – REUNITED WORLDS.

    The good news is that I have a thing about wanting to have seen the year’s best and worst shows. I thought Abyss was this year’s but now I’m not so sure. It could be this. Right now, it is this.

    This episode was so bad, I couldn’t even shitpost it.
    Here’s a gif of JCW being pretty.

    He’s a variety show producer who was apparently coming back from “the field”. “The field” seems to include the Sahara, which we all know is right outside Seoul.

      I am genuinely, honestly, literally waiting to see you face to face to give you alcohol, chocolate and show my eternal gratitude and obedience to you General Dropingu. You have lead us as the alpha in this precarious journey and I am ashamed that I have not been able to support you – as in, bear to watch ep 2 with you. I am willing to face any repercussions this may have caused. Thank you and god bless Australia.

      I thought I was the only one who watched Reunited Worlds.

          I remember that. I wrote one with @javinne that month. Did you ever see 20th cent boy-girl? I’m still in awe you got through RW.

            I watched three or four episodes of reunited worlds, of course, I gave up, but then watched part of the last episode. Even though the drama was no good, it made me cry, a couple of scenes… One of the songs from the OST is actually very very beautiful, don’t remember the name, but it was very sad.

            Reunited Worlds could have been one of the best dramas ever. The idea behind it was just so poignant. The script was terrible though and I’m pretty sure I could see network interference in it too. But it had these moments in it that I genuinely loved; they were just so pure.

            I did see 20th Century Boy and Girl and I really liked it too. It was just… nice. I haven’t been drawn to rewatch it though.

      This is so good. Your dedication should be awarded. Your alias “Dropingu” goes way beyond this shitpost because you did not drop this ice cream show even though it is that BAD. Also, your JCW GIFs are the best.

      Chocolate and cheers to you, General Dame Dropingu 🍫🍻 Surely your shitpost is as good as this drama is bad.
