2023 I sincerely hope this drama takes home all the awards for 2023!!!!!!!! XD In all seriousness, this drama is in a league of its own. The main leads are so talented as well as the whole cast itself and the chemistry. I am sure it took a lot of hard work to prepare and display such a superb performance from everyone. The cinematography is also equally amazing. Namgoong Min...what can I say...He is a truly versatile actor and really a veteran at this. He has proven himself time and time again. He's come a very long way, and so very proud of him.

Ahn Eunjin. Something about her acting feels very refreshing, raw, and real. Also refined. Very talented and able to carry her own weight just fine. I hope they win best couple too!! :)

My Dearest

My dealer/comrade-in-drama-arms @aysekira linked me to the first trailer for Nam Goong Min’s Lovers (now apparently called My Dearest.) Coming out August 4, my most anticipated kdrama this year between the genre (fusion sageuk, that cast, romance!) and it looks every bit as good as I dreamed - dark and intense and desperate and bloody. Nobody does period the way Korea does when it decides to put away youth sageuks and really go for it:

I mean look at this poster!

And here is the synopsis:

First Impressions: One Dollar Lawyer

#NamgoongMin is BACK to his wonderfully hilarious self in the #Kdrama #OneDollarLawyer. Is he charming or on repeat? Come see what The Maknae thinks in this first impressions post.

Did you love Namgoong Min in Chief Kim/Good Manager? His humor and physical comedy were dead on! He’s also proved his range with roles like in The Girl Who Sees Scents and The Veil. But if you were missing funny Namgoong Min, never fear! He’s back in One Dollar Lawyer in all his comedic glory. Read on to see if this is the legal drama you’ve been looking for.  (more…)

So. Started watching The Veil. It's...way more slasher-violent than I anticipated. But also Namgoon Min is way more intriguing here than anywhere else I've seen him. I haven't decided if the internal logic of the show hangs together yet. (Ji Hyuk's former self really was a jerk to him; like why would you set yourself up like that??) But it cracks me up that he brings the classic suit-and-tie NIS agent version, as well as the scarred-leather-jacket-wearing rogue agent version. Not to mention the lost-on-an-island version. Way to have your cake and eat it too, show. #NamgoongMin #TheVeil #BlackSun #HwangHee #JangYoungNam #JoBokRae #KimJiEun #ParkHaSun #kdrama #kdramaedit #kdramaedits #koreandrama #theblackhatclub #blackhatclub https://www.instagram.com/p/CVZHJ6UMUJ_/?utm_medium=tumblr

"The Veil" (Korean Drama) First Impression

NIS agent Han Ji-Hyuk sets out to regain his lost memories and prove his innocence in this new Korean Action/Thriller.

Ever since Namgoong Min started documenting his physical transformation on his Instagram, I’ve been curious to know the reason. Long familiar with his top-notch acting skills as both main lead and villain, knowing what prompted this transformation intrigued me. In the end, all my expectations were more than met when taking a look at “The Veil” (Korean Title: 검은 태양 Geomeun Taeyang; transl. ‘Black…

kinda loved that moment

I recently watched this show, and I can not express enough how spectacular it is, in every way. I haven't experienced a movie like this in forever. That's a long time, considering I've been around for millions of years already. Also, I don't know if I could survive a rewatch, I know it can't be anytime soon, even though I wish I could watch it again tomorrow. It's intensely epic, I need to prepare my body, mind, and soul and allocate time before any rewatching can occur.

In my wildest dreams, I hope one day to write a book, I wish to experience what must be such profound inspiration as I believe Hwang Jin-young, writer of this movie, must have experienced to conceive such a beautifully elegant creation which fills the heart with all sorts of richness.

I hope this movie receives all accolades possible. It's really stunning. It may seem that my reaction is quite dramatic, however, I urge you to watch it, properly watch it, with the attention this movie deserves, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

#my dearest #lover

Update after some research: this movie won practically every award possible, including the grand prize, Daesang, won by Namgoong Min 🤍 well deserved. Obviously he is a beautiful looking man, but seriously, that voice, the way he speaks, I'm sure I held my breath so many times and ended up fainting! Not to relate this to a character or actor, but seriously I can not believe this human exists in the world right now!!!

This is one of the cases where I think I like the IDEA of a drama more than the EXECUTION of it...I loved the unreliable narrator and getting one version of the story only to find out someone was lying or memories were implanted, and no one could be trusted, not even the MC's own mind. But in the end the drama seemed to prioritize complexity over clarity and there were a many, many holes completely ignored by the plot. #NamgoongMin #TheVeil #BlackSun #HwangHee #JangYoungNam #JoBokRae #KimJiEun #ParkHaSun #kdrama #kdramaedit #kdramaedits #koreandrama #theblackhatclub #blackhatclub https://www.instagram.com/p/CVdFbZ6A4CB/?utm_medium=tumblr
