hwang da seul, you will always be famous.
i've been putting off watching this after season 1 because the streets said they broke up. now that i've had the time & attention to actually watch it, i have to say a few "things" about this second season.
first off, WHEW baby, hwang da seul. that's really mother. she can never do any wrong (except wyel, but that's just my personal bias towards its shooters and jang euisoo's companionship choices). i loved everything, from the parallels of the current time/flashbacks, it flowed so naturally and did not feel out of place. cinematography? stunning as always. how they delivered the angst was good here; made the characters feel more fleshed out other than season 1 where we really did not get to "know" them on a deeper lens.
now onto my personal notes. dawg. i still believe that none of this should have happened if they just fucking talked this shit out from the get-go. but whatever, this is fiction, we take what we can get. everything about this show pissed me all the way off but surprisingly? i liked it. the actors ate downnn, honey. kangmin and woohyun ate these roles up. they always had me at the edge of my seat when they would talk. the dinner scene on episode 5? the getting beer scene at episode 6? the confrontation at the last episode? absolute cinema. this shit was draggy but they made magic with it. was the conflict immature? oh hell it was. y'all are liars if you think this conflict was ever needed in the first place. did it felt draggy? a lot of times. but, the execution was stellar. it did not feel like they were going in circles, since it dived onto deeper aspects of their character.
would i rewatch this show ever again? oh baby, absolutely not. the emotions i felt watching this once do not need to resurface again. is it deserving of a high score despite the conflict being cliché and shallow as hell? well... sorta kinda. the acting of kangmin and woohyun here saved this for me, ngl.
[also minor irk. the OSTs for these were terrible. so many english songs that felt out of place to listen to. they could've just used some simple scores/instruments for impact]
