Where do u watch MWLTD?
I thought all international sites didnt do translations on it. Or u watch it raw?

Ur comment makes me want to watch it asap haha.
I think ur the only one talk abt this tho, nobody here keep up abt MWLTD anymore

The show is fantastic. My favorite out of everything that's on right now. You'll find it on kocowa.

Thats what I have been asking in my brain as always. Who did supervise the script before its finalised?

Yeah I bet is PD (Anthony thing could probably another point should be taken as ruiner in script flow)

But PD has too many job. Oh but there are many PD's.

I do thing actors can voice their concern regarding the script, but we dont know how much influences can be taken, actors seniority & success, the relationship between crews, favoritism, so its grey point to be taken.

@chanelboy There were so many times where the plotholes are so huge and obvious that it puzzled me why can't anyone in the production see them?

I'm sure if there is a will, there is a way to solve these issues. Problem is how committed is the team in delivering quality? In reality, I am sure there are other priorities besides producing a good drama.

@outofthisworld

"There are other priorities beside producing a good drama"
✔️✔️✔️??

I do believe those priorities depends on PD & production house on board.

'Should we produce a good drama?'
'Oh how about produce a rating monster? /makjang etc'
'Or...drama that will commercially famous in China and friends?'
'Nevermind, just go with big sponsor wants'
'Hey, the *** company call, they said their actress shouldn't be dress poorly, she has sponsors to held on, (eventhough the actress casts as poor heroine with 3 part time jobs, unpaid school fee, father at hospital to support, oh dont forget she has puppy bcs she is animal lovers.'

There you go.
I agree at many level abt YSH popularity in SK. He is def like Miley of SK. They grew up on TV.

Do u know Any other actor/actress can pull of such adoration from Kviewers?

Yes amazingly popular idol (eventho IU actually a singer not idol) doesn't guarantee anythg.

For 7DQ, I think beside star factor, the story abt seeing Yeongsanggun in different light (twist/fictionize the history) is hard to shallow for Kviewers.

Ex : if my country has real Tyrant leader like Yeongsanggun in the past, I won't spend a sec to invest for a show that has any tribute to him. He hurt our ancestor, hurting our country & such a bad nightmare to be remind of.

love story / any other history is good to go for any fiction project.

Sometimes history accuracy has more impact. Romantize or stretch a generalization for a tyran couldn't do much for sake of entertainment/art

There is a lot to love about a scandal free child actor, nation's little brother like Yoo Seung-ho who chose to serve in the military as soon as he was of age.
Melodrama and more old school sageuks are still popular among the older viewers.
"Imaginary Cat" didn't do as well.

Jang Hyuk can also carry a mediocre to badly written sageuk into the double digits.

Lee Jun-ki has always been more popular outside of Korea early on in his career as long as I can remember and that hasn't changed. He is devoted to his fans as much as they are to him.
Unfortunately, tv ratings is determined by the local viewers.

K viewers can be pretty sensitive when it comes to their history and no amount of good writings is going to change that.
Jo Jin-mo's character in Empress Ki (King Chunghye was a terrible king) and was changed into a fictional king after complain from the viewers and history scholars.
Kind of wish 7DQ didn't go there even before it was aired. I can't say I blame the locals for not watching it.

I agree with you. It's hilarious and entertaining but somehow we don't feel connected with the characters.

I'm cheering for Jin Sook too.

I think GT dragged somehow in the middle, maybe 50 epi was too long. At the end, it is the Prime Minister that kept me watching. If you love it, you should try Bad Thief Good Thief which is also written by the same writer. Woman of Dignity has 20 epi only, good for binge watch.

Sera, the writer, Son Young-Mok, also penned May Queen, a train wreck that never ended. I looked up his profile on Asianwiki,

http://asianwiki.com/Son_Young-Mok_(screenwriter) , the comments, whew !?

LOL. I think his drama can be interesting to watch with lesser epi, maybe the longest should be 30 epi. It seems like he loves to test viewers' patience.lol

Opps, i was talking about Woman of Dignity

I read on twitter that Rescue Me ep 6 got 2.3% rating! I'm so happy that this drama finally reached 2% rating! ??????

Actually it got some Chief Kim vibe esp. with the first humor touch in early ep, and well it got NGM so not doing the comparison is nearly impossible ?
I binge watched Chief Kim 3 months ago : I loved it !!!

actually I love the three : Mu-Young, Seok-Min is so cool and Chief Yang hilariously charismatic (if this is possible hahaha)
Like I said in the recap : I can’t wait to see these two compete to get the title of the most awesome/inspiring chief .

If they do a scene with the two asking Mu-Young "who do you prefer ?" that'll be my fav' scene of the year ??

Now show, give me a scene these three go to public bath together and see whose abs is the best (which we know the answer already lol). Namgoong Min's epic fanservice in Chief Kim still made me laugh lol.

omo omo Sunbae ???
