Sean Akizuki's East Asian Drama and Movie Blog

It's already expected that Bi Soo will die after 49 days, right? Yet, there was some teaser that he'd die after 49 years. WTF man... I thought about how badly written or how you're hopeful for a good ending the finale then poof... Bi Soo disappears as scheduled. Was Joo Jin Kook trolling the audiences with his script? Maybe yes, maybe no. But I find it distasteful to give a glimpse of hope that Bi Soo would live but no - we were trolled and then he finally DISAPPEARED. The plot twist was that the "angel" who saved Bi Soo was his biological father. Yup, Bi Soo's father died before he was born. His mother married his stepfather. Then we see his mother die. It turns out that Bi Soo was given extra time to at least take care of his mother before she'd pass away from cancer. I'm really finding the whole thing weird. I also find the whole thing haphazardly written. Not to mention - I wonder are the producers and directors of this show simply using Jin A Nana...

As said,  I decided not to do episode reviews as much as possible since I'm watching this show at my own pace along with Vincenzo , Law School , and Eternal Love: Ten Miles of Peach Blossom at my own pace. So, I tend to binge-watch the shows whenever I can. So far, I decided to watch Oh My Ladylord also at my own pace. I was thinking of the plots where Bi Soo gets into a rather friendly love triangle with Yu Jin over Joo-In. It does have some comic experiences (but not slapstick) to go along with it. I do feel like criticizing the negative aspect of Asian culture of not being that open about one's condition. It's really a cliche in East Asian drama to hide one's condition until it's too late. I wish Bi Soo's mother would've been more open that she may die any time soon. Bi Soo realizes it but pretends not to know as not to worry his mother. Bi Soo's mother just wants to spend more time with her son but doesn't want to tell him about her cancer. Also,...

Aside from the ongoing series Vincenzo - I decided to give this romantic comedy a shot. Personally, I can get fed up with too many romances and seek some action. Vincenzo features both romance and action just like Pride and Prejudice (which is now taken down from Netflix). Jin A Nana seems to have been taken away from the world of serious action and put into the world of lighter and softer. Her current project Oh My Ladylord seems to follow the format of Memorials where she's cast with Park Sung Hoon who was previously the antagonist of Justice . Now, I really wonder if the directors think she looked "too cute" to be a police officer during Kill It and Justice so they decided to give her cutey roles (with a side of badass) instead. The plot can be quite funny. Lee Min Ki plays a suspense writer and Nana is an aspiring actress. I do find the situation stupid (and irritating) when Min Ki's character Han Bi Soo gets the house sold by his rather idiotic mother. Nana plays...
