Beanie level: Water maid

What on earth was that ending?! 😂 And right after that swoony “Secretary Kim.. I want to stir you up.” #dontknowwhethertolaughorcry #whatswrongwithsecretarykim #ep5

For a moment, I thought I’d traveled back in time to 2010 and was watching Secret Garden. Lee Young Joon lives in Kim Joo Won’s house! #whatswrongwithsecretarykim #ep3

I know that the romance in Misaeng was downplayed, and it worked great – but I can\’t help wanting to know! Who did Ahn Young Yi like? Did anything ever happen about Baek Gi and Geu Rae\’s crushes?

How beautiful are these thoughts which flow like poetry. Misaeng, YES! <3

Misaeng resonates so closely to what’s going on in my life right now, that I can only thank the universe for keeping me from finding it until this moment, when I can appreciate it so completely. <3

Just started watching Misaeng, and this puppy has already stolen my heart.

    Ooooh, you’re in for a treat. What a poignant show. It can be hard to watch at times but in the best way. We are all Jang Geu-rae at some point in our lives.

      Yeah, I really am enjoying this show, even though it’s so real in its treatment of office politics and working, in general, that I can’t help feeling cynical and low as I watch some of the scenes. Underdog stories done right are always amazing, though, so I hope this doesn’t disappoint in that regard!

    I’ve rewatched Misaeng countless times I’ve memorized the dialogues <3

I feel so surprised when I come across a supporting actor in a different drama, cast as a completely different character – maybe because I think of them as characters, not actors

    Eg. Mom in BTIOLF was that Ahjumma in Legend of The Blue Sea, and Cha Shi Ah in Legend of The Blue Sea was Shin Hye Sun(hehe) in School 2013

      Kim Sun-young (Ji-ho’s mom) has been in several things. She was also in Answer Me 1988, Shopping King Louis, and many more. She’s really good and deserves all the roles she’s been getting!

        Ah, I haven’t watched any of those dramas yet, so that explains it. 😅 She is awesome!
        Extended realisation : I tend to associate all actors with the characters they’ve played, until I see them in many different dramas – at which point they transition from being characters in the story, into actors playing those roles. 😄

          It depends on the actor for me! There are some actors that I can’t help but just see them as their actor even when playing a character, especially if they have mostly the same mannerisms and play characters with similar personalities. Lee Min-ho comes to mind as that type of actor for me. Even Gong Hyo-jin falls under that category, although I love her to bits and she makes every character very likable and engaging.

          Then you have the ones that display such range and so totally inhabit a character that you forget they’re played by an actor. In the moment, they’re just their character. No surprise that Lee Min-ki falls under this category for me, lol.

            That’s actually true for me too, I guess – it was so amazing the way Lee Min Kee seems like a wholly different person in the different roles I’ve seen him. I also just finished watching School 2013, and even though I’ve seen the actors there in different dramas, I wasn’t paying attention to that after a while – the story was too compelling. So it must be good actors+strong story which makes us forget that its fiction, and when either of those is weak, there’s scope for nitpicking on details.😅

Because I have to play this song over and over to fuel my End Of The Show sadness, which doesn’t work – it’s too cheerful!

I actually teared up because it ended. Why couldn\’t we have had more of this show??

This drama really does overturn all stereotypes. Isn\’t it surprising how many things can happen in one episode, even when the pacing seems so relaxed? Finale week, what will you bring us?

Omo, is that a list of what he learns about her everyday? 😂 That’s so like Se Hee!
Could someone translate the rest, please? 😀

This show has such beautiful, contemplative dialogues. It\’s so rare to find something to relate with in every character in a story.

I miss WYWS, only because there won’t be weekly LJS anymore. Throwback to the first time I saw him in a drama – whaddup, Secret Garden?
