I’m in a Namgoong Min mood. Is Doctor Prisoner any good? Or I’m open to recommendations. I’ve seen him in Chief Kim, Stove League, and Beautiful Gong Shim.

    If you wanna see him as a psycho, watch Remember: War of the Sun

    Whatever you do, don’t watch The Undateables.

    Maybe check out the first episode recap of Doctor Prisoner to read some initial reviews? I heard it was good, but I wasn’t in the mood for it.

    I’ve seen it and while I’m totally biased, I found it impossible to put down – binged it in one gulp. And you get two for one as well, Apart from Namgoong Min, Choi Won-young (from Mystic Pop-Up Bar) is there too, as a totally different character. There is a scene at the end that is Shakespearean in its intensity and also emotion. As he is so often, Namgoong Min is a v clever and potentially ambiguous smart operator. So say no more, if you like that sort of thing, go no further.

      I just finished episode 1…and well that was an intense first hour. I’m definitely intrigued though. Will keep watching.

    I really want to go through his entire filmography. Both his villain roles in Remember and The Girl Who Sees Scents are commended.

      @edgarpordwed I’ve heard the same but am I ready to see NGM as the bad guy!? Seeing him play an anti hero in Doctor Prisoner is already a big jump from Chief Kim. Lol but he amazes me with his acting.
