Featured reviews
Not sure what's better the Autism theme or the acting by the main lead, she is just so cute and funny in her delivering of this character, we will see how this plays out but so far its fantastic.
With 8 episodes in have to say this is the best most enjoyable KD ive seen to date. This makes good KD look average at best.
Only two hours left and a lot to sew up this should have a great finish, come on writers dont blow it now.
Good new 2nd season announced,
If there was ever a KD series that warranted 20 episodes it's this one but we only get 16.

Drama itself is excellent. I loved it. But if you watched this subtitled, then you missed at least 30% of the story.
Most Koreans wouldn't use English subtitle so they wouldn't know. Most English speaking audience don't understand the audio so they wouldn't know. But I'm Korean-American who lived 25 years in each country. I'm equally fluent in both languages but we turn the subtitle on for our daughter who isn't very good with Korean. And the amount of mistakes I notice is ridiculous. I am 100% certain it was translated by a Korean who never lived in English speaking country.
One example is the nickname of Kwon. They translated it to "Tactician Kwon". Which is actually a compliment. But the original Korean word used was negative. It should've been "Plotting Kwon". Because he always plotting something against someone. There are literally dozens of these wrong translations per episode.
Bong Joon-Ho's movies such as Parasite on the other hand are much better. I can tell he spends extra effort making sure translations are perfect. But Netflix Korean shows including Squid Game are horrible.
Come on Netflix, there are 1.4 million Korean-Americans who can do better job.

It's really interesting how Korean drama always know how to hit our heart with laughter and emotional moments.
Many series came and went but this will definitely remain with me for rest of my life.

Tired of superheroes? South Korean stuff. Bored to death by old and overused tropes? South Korean stuff. Cringing at awful acting? South Korean stuff. Vomited in your own mouth again thanks to a sophomoric script? South Korean stuff.
Weird Lawyer Woo Young Woo is the umpteenth example that South Korean TV regularly gets right the myriad things that Hollywood can't or won't do. Treat yourself to this all-around awesome series.
