Back on Dramabeans to leave a comment for my most recent favourite Daebak Realty. The word of mouth is pretty good but unfortunately it still looks like it’ll be overlooked by most people.
The ratings look they’ve held strong and steady, which makes me happy. It’s currently my favorite watch, too. Great storytelling, and Jang Na-ra’s micro expressions are astoundingly good. I burst out laughing just because of an ever-so-slight twitch of her mouth. Not sure how likely it is she’ll be recognized come awards season, but I think she deserves to be.
Unfortunately, KBS like their weekend dramas (ratings you see). She was overlooked for Go Back Spouses because it wasn’t a good enough ratings hit even though it was KBS’s only critical success that year. The Last Empress was the biggest win for SBS ratings-wise but she lost because of a lack of seniority. I think perhaps she just isn’t powerful enough in the industry to get the highest honours. A middling excellence award is plausible but tbh at this point in her career only the grand prize will do.
