I don’t remember what I read and where but it persuaded me to still give it a shot and my, oh, my ! Best decision ever, drama watching-wise.ĭrama has no intention to portray ANY of its aspects in a realistic and documented form and let you know its stand right away so it can’t be why you are in.
Actually, I can’t think of any other Kdrama that fit the bill…”Nine”, maybe ?Īt that time, I was so frustrated with Hyun Bin’s drama (still want my time back !) that I was not keen at all on watching another train wreck and I almost didn’t watch KMHM. That combo of actors performances, story telling, plot twist, glamour and perfect ending stays unequalled in KDramaLand to this day. “Kill me, heal me” has managed to stay in my top 5 all these years. Yaaaaaas ! I was about to rewatch that drama anyway so I glad you chose it as your editorial pick, it’s the perfect candidate if I can say so myself. Now, the question is, will Perry Park be able to save Ri Jin, since he just happens to be the personality in charge right now? What a surprise, though, that it’s not Shin Se Gi who shows up, but Perry Park! 😆 We don’t know what Perry Park’s schtick is, but I like him already, with his friendly vibe and his cheery Satoori. I do think that Show’s done a good job of establishing Do Hyun’s personality, though.īecause, even though the call that he receives from Gangster Dude is mystifying to him, we’ve already seen that he’s the type of person who would go out of his way to help someone, even if he doesn’t know them well, and therefore, I’m not even a little surprised, that Do Hyun would go to such lengths – and even put the very important board meeting at risk – in order to save Ri Jin. I’m pretty sure nobody mentioned it during the chaos that ensued outside the Paradise club? But perhaps this is just part of Show’s acid-fueled sort of vibe, where our drama world is distorted and trippy, and not quite rooted in reality? I don’t see how he would know to find Ri Jin at the hospital where she works, though. I guess I should have seen it coming, that Gangster Dude would seek out Ri Jin, in order to use her as leverage in his quest to get his jacket back.
Oh Ri On might appear like a bit of a “himbo” on first glance, with his offer to let Do Hyun use his phone on the plane, since the cabin crew’s told Do Hyun not to use his phone, but clearly, there is more going on beneath that surface. Oh Ri Jin and Oh Ri On are twins, and it feels like there must be a deeper narrative reason that their names sound like “Origin” and “Orion” respectively.ĥ. (How nice, to see Choi Won Young as Secretary Ahn!)Ĥ. Do Hyun, does, however, have Secretary Ahn sharing his secret. Shin Se Gi is determined that Do Hyun claim his rightful place as Seung Jin’s heir, while Do Hyun’s aghast at the implications of having to hide his condition while working in the Seung Jin Group. I’m guessing that he’s keeping her at arm’s length because of his condition, and not because he doesn’t like her.Īlso, I do have a soft spot for Oh Min Suk, and even though Ki Joon’s shaping up to be a shady sort, I can’t help admiring how handsome he looks in a suit, ha.ģ. That physical pain that Do Hyun experiences, when Shin Se Gi comes to the fore, is, again, very well-delivered by Ji Sung I completely believe that pain that I see on my screen, so much so that I half wince in solidarity.Ĭhae Yeon had seemed to like Do Hyun, given that she’d invited him to meet on Christmas Day in that flashback, and Do Hyun had seemed to like her back, given his excited reaction to receiving her call. I don’t know how realistic it is, for there to be physical discomfort involved in Do Hyun and Shin Se Gi trading places, but, as we’ve already established, realism is not something that we can look for in Show, and expect to feel satisfied with our findings. It makes me imagine Shin Se Gi applying said guyliner, upon taking over as the main consciousness, and that’s just hilarious to me. On a tangent, I am very amused at how Do Hyun always finds himself wearing guyliner when he comes to, after Shin Se Gi’s taken his body for a whirl. I’m pretty sure that we haven’t yet seen Ji Sung at his best, since we’ve only just been introduced to Shin Se Gi, and there are many other personalities residing in Do Hyun, with whom we haven’t made our acquaintance yet.Īt this early stage, however, I’m already very much impressed, because not only must it be exhausting for Ji Sung to play multiple characters, with all the additional lines of dialogue and screen time that come with, he makes the transition between Do Hyun and Shin Se Gi look so effortlessly easy.
