Mickey02: Just finished watching good boy. Oboy that was fast! BRB Here's my review on "good boy". Because of @toykathy I'll try to keep it short and simple. Though that will not stop me from ranting anyway  "That Park Bo Gum's character survived this drama was a miracle! Honestly, if they had him sacrificing himself in the pursuit of justice, That would have made him more of a noble character/hero than what he ended up as in this drama." ~ Anonymous 1. "Good Boy" felt like a high-budget project dominated by one voice, overshadowing the capable team, and relying heavily on presentation and visuals. 2. The drama's premise of ex-national athletes turning into cops was intriguing, with a chaotic yet enjoyable team dynamic and strong antagonists initially. 3. As the series progressed, the novelty faded, and the pacing became inconsistent, with awkward tonal shifts and a disappointing villain arc. 4. The focus on Yoon Dong Ju (Park Bo Gum) was excessive, overshadowing the ensemble cast and reducing team dynamics to mere support roles. 5. The romance lacked chemistry, feeling more like friendship, while the bromance between Park Bo Gum and Lee Sang-yi's character was more compelling. 6. Park Bo Gum's acting was a highlight, while other side characters performed well; however, Kim Soo Hyun's acting felt unconvincing. 7. Cinematography and production were polished, with well-crafted action sequences, particularly the neon-lit fight scene. 8. Overall, "Good Boy" aimed to be deep and thrilling but faltered in execution, becoming dull and repetitive in the second half, recommended mainly for Park Bo Gum fans or action drama enthusiasts. I managed to watch till the end only for the action and for kim Soo Hyun. I give it a solid 6/10. |

kangminhyuksho: I guess among all the lawyers in law and the city, it's only ha sang gi that doesn't have a clash with his boss. is that because they sorta kinda have a crush on each other or because they barely get any work? I feel like the only time I've ever seen him in court was for the case of the cheating couple that died. On that their "crush" matter, I wonder if they'll ever admit they have some sort of feelings for each other. seems like it'll be hard especially since she's his boss, it might come across as unethical or whatever even though they are both 2 adults especially since they have other staff around them. I honestly did not get that PhD part tho, are they really trying to tell me he can't work and school at the same time. I mean, how much is the law they're learning sef, can't someone do PhD on a part time basis? I honestly didn't understand that part. The case of that dead baba had me🙄 because all he left was debt, his siblings were comfortable allowing a child inherit the debt but I bet you if he was a chaebol with lots of money and assets, they'd fight the child tooth and nail to inherit his assets. human beings are so terrible and selfish, I can't even. TBH I've never been comfortable with family members inheriting dead people's debt. I know it's mandatory especially in some cases like loans from banks and whatever and it might be incredibly naive of me but I feel like if person don die e don die. why disturb someone else to pay their debt but then again I know it could be necessary in some cases plus a lot of people will probably start faking their deaths to avoid paying back loans🤣😩 God should have just made me a plastic spoon, I can't deal with humans and their intricacies walahi. as for the insurance company, they're awful but the workers' are the worst. you people have the power of numbers, you can come together and demand that they stop keeping you all late at work due to someone's "mistakes" instead you'd all rather bully the one person that made the mistake instead of standing up to your employer. shame on them!! ahn ju hyeong is a better person than I am cos I would have told that salesman I don't have any insurance to buy. He should sleep at work mtcheww. I will never understand Korean dramas and their aversion to showing pregnant women and their bellies. infact until I watched fated to love you, I don't think I had ever seen a pregnant woman's stomach in dramas and even the few ones that show their bellies have been supporting characters never the main leads. I was just rolling my eyes when munjeong was having an ultrasound and they didn't show the stomach. it's like you people will show men shirtless, you'll show naked or almost naked women but when it comes to showing a pregnant belly you suddenly cross the line? 🤣🤣🤣 I've never understood it. ngl if not that honey Lee did a pregnancy photoshoot where she showed her belly, I for no believe say Koreans dey get belle🤣 i bet in the whole of dramaland there's probably only 5 dramas that has shown a pregnant woman's stomach. 1 thing I like about this drama is the minimal number of villains. The main leads are all cool people and even their family members are awesome. everybody's parent is normal and munjeong is married to the best man ever. I Love it. I Wonder what the deal is between the advisor ahjumma and that thug. why is she so hell bent on saving him and why does he hate her so much. she's definitely not his mom cos she said "when I first met you, you weren't like this" so what soured their relationship?
Saw the first teaser for kim yoo Jung and Kim young dae's upcoming drama and so far it looks good. From what I've read of the plot and from what the teaser shows, her character is supposed to be like an anti hero, I think it's going to be interesting if they stick to that. I hope they don't suddenly turn her into a goody two shoes halfway through. I feel like the only drama I've seen where the main lead was a proper anti hero was miss Ripley which was made in 2011. Lee da hae was so awful in the drama but I kept praying no one would catch her🤣 I think the reason that drama worked so well was cos it was based on a true life story and well, humans are flawed. Anyway I'm looking forward to this one.
*Sigh* another talented actor lost to a possible suicide. It is well.

kangminhyuksho: Lmao 🤣🤣 well done. You even try. I rate it 2/10. I watched it and totally forgot about it. The only good thing about the drama was park shin hye's and the villains acting just as you pointed out. There was zero chemistry between the main leads so the romance was very bleh. Don't even get me started on the spiritual? Aspect. The drama was bleh. Time to delete and move on to the next |

Well! Well!! Well!!! I just finished "the judge from hell". It took me two weeks or so to complete. A drama that I'd have watched in 2-3 days. Since I'm bored lemme just drop a review here before taking up the 'good boy' drama.
First of all, the worldbuilding and lore are just laughable, to be honest. If you're going to adapt real-world religions and mythologies and change up stuff, at least put some care into it and have some internal logic. What do you mean Gabriel came all the way to rescue Justitia from Hell (her original home BTW) because she's suddenly a good person, when said angel didn't rescue Daon (was brought back by Bael) or the human Kang Bitna, who we never hear about again? Justitia is a DEMON and moreover the personification of justice. She shouldn't have to abide by human rules of good or bad. Also, Satan rebelling against Lucifer...? There were no other demonic names to use? And if Justitia was saved for being "good", which happened because she was becoming more human, why were other demons who were becoming human then being punished for doing the same? Mando can become a Christian, then later become Buddhist? To me, the writers were just doing whatever here, but I am open to any explanations.
Then when it comes to the plot, there were so many head-scratchers. Here are a few:
- Arong stopped chasing demons to become a full-time fan girl? Moreover, she was surrounded by demons who were practically human: Mando, the clean-up crew, etc, and she did nothing.
- What was the point in Bael asking Justitia to free J and send him directly to Hell? What would it have mattered to Bael in any case which murderers Justitia allowed to be punished by the law versus punished in her usual way? Also Justitia is apparently Bael's chosen successor but he sent an assassin after her?
- What was the point of the redevelopment plot if it played such an important role in finding the Kylum? All they did was mention it a few times until J revealed that it was where the Kylum landed.
- Speaking of the Kylum and Satan, both ended up being dispatched so easily, I can't believe they were set up as some kind of Big Bad and J the HUMAN serial killer ended up being so much more threatening (at least according to the drama's logic).
- I'm still wondering why any of the criminals' cases had to even make it to court before Justitia dealt with them in her own court? Once she knew who they were, she could have gone after them before their cases made it to trial and it wouldn't have mattered. Or she could have properly sentenced them then either have them broken out of jail or get them before they get to the prison like she did for the DID faker.
Also, you will never see shoddier police work and legal justice work in Kdramaland than in this drama. Honestly if you're hoping for some proper legal/cop drama action, think again.
I was also not a fan of the romance; I completely skipped their dating montage. I think the drama could have worked without it; I much preferred the flirty-hostile banter they had in the first few episodes. I really couldn't see what they liked about each other; all the FL did was look into the ML's eyes and her heart started beating. I'm not even sure at what point the ML fell in love. Not good enough. I think a slow, subtle attraction that came from them teaming up with each other would have worked better, and maybe they get together at the end or the drama leaves it open-ended.
PSH acting was top notch! Kudos to her and the villains in EP 1-7. They were the only stand out in the drama. All other stuffs were shitty and mediocre. Overall I'd give it a 5/10 rating. No offense |

kangminhyuksho: Lmao falling hand because I never watch drama 😂 you better prepare for your whole body to fall cos there are many dramas I still haven't watched. I prefer to watch things when I want to instead of going with the crowd🤭 till today I still haven't watched goblin and na just this week I finish watching signal that everyone was making noise about as far back as 2015 or whatever and there will continue to be many dramas I won't watch on time no matter the hype. Get used to it and carry your fallen hand back up o🤣 meanwhile I'll be watching silly and boring dramas like bitchxrich and marry you immediately they air😂 you can never understand the method to my madness 🤭 Your last line 😂😂 If I was a drama, I would rather be in your hate list than your bottom watch list. The hate list is like 'go I don't want you' painful but overcome with time. You see that your bottom watch list eehn 'till thy kingdom come' I pray more never to fall in that list than to understand your madness |

kangminhyuksho: The rumors were right. Song joong ki oppa's oyinbo girlfriend is pregnant and they are married. Apparently she was his English tutor while he was preparing to film Vincenzo. I haven't watched that drama but from what I saw of his English in reborn rich, she did a really good job on him lol real life sleeping dictionary. Anyway I wish them well, I hope this marriage lasts especially since there's going to be a child(ren) involved and imma also need butthurt song-song fans to move on,its been like 4 fukccin years since their divorce. Be happy for people biko
Park bo gum signed with black label. Me I'm just looking at him with side eye cos it doesn't make sense to me and I hate everything affiliated with YG but whatever I hope they treat him well.
On a random note, apparently there's going to be a season 2 of player and they are changing the female lead from Krystal to oh yeon seo. I love my girl oys but I didn't watch season 1 so I really don't plan to watch season 2, I wish she picked a drama I'm actually interested in. I will miss her small
Lol I'll say it again and again but I'm so glad crash course in romance is doing so well ratings wise, you'd think I was the writer lol

Ovems: I watched the 1st episode of S Line and I was irritated by the red lines above their heads, especially for those that the lines are so many like the male lead. Not irritated because of what the lines meant but the way it was sticking out of their heads. I just couldn't continue. The plot alone was enough to turn me off. Never was it close to being in my watchlist. So far I'm observing the nice guy at a distance |

kangminhyuksho: Lmao I've already zero-ed my mind that they'll forgive all of her sins. Immediately the general shaman said she's not going to let go of her the way she's not letting go of her dead baby, I knew they planned to go the prodigal son/assistant Jesus route. Plus since the month of June my pastor has been preaching on grace and how even seemingly " evil" people can function under the grace of God cos some graces are meant for everyone both the just and the unjust, I just decided to pretend I'm not seeing her in this drama cos she is super annoying but they'll come and forgive and forget and as a child of God I'm supposed to be cool with it🤣 Lol 😂😂😂😂 |
