My current obsession: Son Seok-goo speaking in great English pronunciation in Big Bet, having been in school in Canada and Chicago. Although the Filipino actor Nico Antonio did better since English is one of the Philippines' official languages.

Sorry, I think the scene I’m referring to is in Episode 4 or 5. There’s a lot of exciting stuff happening before she’s even born.

There's this.
Actually, I don't know what the theme of the poster was, but if it is boxing-themed, PSW understood the assignment perfectly of all the three.

I’m rewatching QUEEN SEON DEOK. One of my favorite scenes of all time is in Episode 1, where Nam Ji-Hyun plays the young Deokman living in the Taklamakan Desert in the 7th century. She speaks Korean, Chinese, and Latin.

And isn't stealing the laptop a crime? And kidnapping? And we're supposed to root for Ki-ho to find a new relationship? So.Many.Plot.Holes.

The “whatever” approach to speaking foreign languages in Korean dramas doesn’t seem to cut both ways; Korean-American actors have been bashed by Korean media for speaking Korean imperfectly.

There’s an interesting article about the Korean-American actor Steven Yeun obsessing over his accents (both Korean and Korean-accented English) for the film Minari. The article also discusses the whole issue of accents and identity.
