    This is maybe the first time I don't hate #LeeMinHo's character. Once I could figure out all the doppelgangers, the plot became quite captivating too. And what a performance by #WooDoHwan! Can we talk about that Busan accent and how he totally nailed the double personality?

    A big negative point is the lack of chemistry between the leads. The romance didn't come out well and for me it's a recurring issue with #KimGoEun

    Cheese in the Trap
    (2016 - Viki, 16 1:05 eps)

    It was such an unusual journey. Maybe the 7.4 MDL rating is because it's not a comfortable show & the big messages aren't realized until the last eps. Many consider it a classic, probably because of the quality acting, & the unusual twist on a trope.

    Not your typical rich chaebol with trauma falling for the poor girl: it is a rollercoaster of emotion. There are sweet friends, imperfect parents, a crazy sibling, a love triangle, & many side characters with difficult personality traits.

    Both MLs get angry & act out, but in very different ways. One is much more socially acceptable, the other makes people very uncomfortable. The FL demonstrates that being with a person means accepting the good & the bad in yourself & them.

    Now that I know the ending, my perception of the whole thing shifted.

    The King: Eternal Monarch

    I wanted to love this one a lot. Lee Min Ho as a King with a horse in a science fiction/fantasy world - what could be better?

    I liked it and may watch parts of it again. It’s hard to discuss without spoilers. The story had a lot of potential, but fell short for me. I did love Woo Do Hwan - he was excellent at playing 2 really different characters and he makes it worth watching.

    Like Heavenly Idol, I think trying to develop & explain another world in just 16 episodes means you leave out a lot of important character development.

    I’d say give it a watch, but don’t expect it to the be the epic it looks to be.
