I hope they can give us schedule of shows they will play 😁

I watched Running Man from yesterday’s videos. 😀

@db-staff

What’s Up is love – and a springboard of so many talents: Jo Jung-suk, Kim Ji-won, Lee Soo-Hyuk to name a few.

What I don’t understand, though, is how come Lim Ju-Hwan not offered any lead role anymore? And why we are not seeing much of Lim Ju-eun who is so memorably badass in What’s Up. The last I saw her was in Heirs as Choi Jin-hyuk’s girlfriend.

I think I liked Special Labor Inspector Mr. Jo and Fiery Priest about the same as this one. They all made me laugh.

Yaaaaaay!!!

I hope @purplesheesh has seen this one. Her avatar and Yoo Seung Ho both caught my attention in this one. Plus it has Bae Doo Na and Lee Hyun Woo so you really can’t go wrong if you like an underdog school drama.

Life is a show I really, really love (on my top ten) but even if it’s set in a hospital I never consider it a médica drama… does it make sense?

I’m almost finished with it and it’s soooooo good. The casting is perfection.

OMG how could I forget about this when making my post. *ashamed* Everything is done so well – the cast is perfect, the writing hurts in all the best ways, and the cinematography is beautiful~

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

“Amen”

Loved this show and the soundtrack.

Suchhhh a good drama. I feel like I might need to rewatch sometime soon…

I should really just watch this already.

I have the same questions.

Nobody Knows is a tense thriller about a cop who makes it her life’s mission to find a serial killer. There’s references to a cult, but it hasn’t taken too much screen time to adversely affect the storytelling, which has been truly wonderful so far.

The cop-FL also happens to be a friend and mentor to a young schoolgoing boy who’s her neighbour, and this serial is as much about their friendship as it is about her role as a cop. Some part of the story is also devoted to the boy’s life at school, the friends (and enemies?) he makes, his teachers, and so on.

While resolving the murder cases is the focus, there is plenty of screen time given to the development of the friendships between various characters (not just FL and boy). No comedy. There is some gore, but I wasn’t put off by it.

In sum, an excellent show. Do watch – one more week to go for the live airing to end!

It has melancholy times but it has a surprising amount of humor in it to.

It does all the elements you mentioned, but it also has humor and (really cute) romance. For a drama which deals with quite a lot of sad and dark stuffs, I find the overall feeling turns out to be pretty warm and wholesome? You really should check it out!

Hyena was one of the best shows I have ever watched… until the finale. The two last episodes were all over the place and too rushed.

The assault scene felt weird and contrived, the scene were GJ leans on HJ’s shoulder was completely out of character, and she was out of bandages in two days. So contrived.

HJ’s father’s trial was just some random sentences and close-ups.

The investigations about Lawyer Song were quite jumbled and the reveal that he was actually the murderer not only felt like a last minute decision but was only shown in a quick flashback. I don’t understand why they felt the need to waste screentime for going and threatening both Lawyer Song and Mr Seo when they could instead show all of the team sitting at their table and having their usual fiery discussions and interpretations about the investigation.

Inviting Lawyer Bu felt quite pointless. They didn’t give her HJ’s father’s case like they said they would and she seemed quite clueless about what they actually wanted to do. I would have much prefered if she had just decided to join them like the others.

There was also none of the directorial flairs that made every comedic, or dramatic, or romantic scene quite thrilling before.

And worse of all, they seemed to be so rushed that they completely forgot about their ost!! The on point background music was one of the highlights of the show and it was completely ignored or forgotten at last minute.

Things I still loved nevertheless:

The fantastic hotel shenanigans.
When Laywer Song came to see HJ.
When Laywer Ga came to see HJ.
The watch PPL. HA. That was ppl nicely done!
GJ burning Kevin.
Not showing Lawyer Song’s trial. I only wanted to see the result and I did. This show was always about the process not the trial.
GJ not giving in to love until the end. The GJ that we have come to know would never just say yes to HJ. She will probably keep snobbing him until one day she suddenly decides to seduce him again.

I will rewatch this show very soon and will probably ff through the two last episodes to make it one of the best shows ever again.

And a p.s. to all the people disappointed that there were no kisses. We are in the middle of a global pandemic, remember?

Looking at male lead Joo Hyuk, he is a very very average man. Used to working hard. Too soft-hearted. I’m not calling him kind-hearted, he doesn’t cave with the first push because he is too kind, it’s just because he cannot say no. He is also unlucky. You know that kind of guy. He is the one that always gets splashed on, the one who always gets saddled with the difficult customer. There are lots of people like that. It is not their fault. They kinda get used to it. But it doesn’t mean it doesn’t wear them down.
A schoolgirl gets an immediate crush on him and he is quite firm in avoiding her at first until she tempts him with a large tutoring pay. He still refuses her while being her tutor.
The girl loses her father and in grief latches onto him and as always he cannot say no. He remains by the family’s side, and as her tutor, until she comes of age. He then starts dating her and eventually marries her.
I’m sure he loved her in his own mild simple way, but he definitely never was crazy in love. She is pretty and cute and madly in love with him and has been stuck to him for the past few years. It was probably impossible not to fall for her.
Fast-forward a few years. He is still the average too-soft-hearted hard-working unlucky man, and she… she is a disaster.

Now looking at female lead Woo Jin. She is a careless happy-go-lucky girl who obviously isn’t doing well in school as her mother is ready to pay so much for tutoring. She falls for JH at first sight, and the rest of her days are simply about one thing only: her love for him.
She continues to study only to be near him. Dates and marries him. Goes to a lowly work, has kids, and the reality of life hits her like a truck of doom.
She has probably never learned any kind of time or life management. Looking at her in the beginning of the show DESTROYS me. The poor woman is screaming silently (and sometimes not so silently) from severe depression. She went from being a kid with no thought, to a kid with only one sole purpose in life, straight to a clueless woman in the middle of a low-income family needing lots of management.
Then the time-travel and the parallel world happened. People were right in saying that JH deserved to be unhappy in his new life and WJ deserved to marry his coworker and have her own life. End of the story.
The first time I watched it I really felt the ending forced and pointless. I probably went and rewatched GBC immediately.
Then I rewatched the show and was like OH!

This is not JH’s story AT ALL. He is only a device. A switch. An observer. A narrator. The story is wholey and completely about giving WJ a new chance at real life. At growing up. Finding things to do, and care for, in life. Becoming her own mature woman. Learning to take care of herself, her mother, a home, and a whole business if need arises. Discovering this has made the show a completely different experience for me.
Although it still manages to break me everytime bacause my heart bleeds for all those depressed young mothers that will never have this magical chance at growing up.
