Kyeongchalsueob (2021)
Liked it but in some situations the behaviour of the characters is annoying
By episode 12, it did bug me enough to write a review.
How should someone like that train prospective police officers. He reacts too impulsively instead of using his advantages wisely, for example when he takes the bug and runs off with it, any really good investigator would have left it there and misled the listener, or when he has the crook's cell phone and calls the number, he only runs around to check when he has already hung up.
Why are they talking so loudly in the big hall, everyone could listen and he doesn't have a PokerFace either.
I know it's a series but these things are annoying because it's not believable.

scary baby face
Help!
The scenes in the car are already badly done, but the scene with the child on the balcony, really?! Couldn't they use a real baby and if not at least use a better animation?
And then the lip sync... It's embarrassing.

Wrong translation
It has been a while since the German translation for Tibetan is not 'tibetANISCH anymore. The correct translation is tibetisch/tibetischer/Tibeter/Tibeterin.
Didn't like the movie, expected something else. The German introduction said something about sects and not about demons etc.

Exaggerated acting and behaviour
Made it through the first two episodes, but had to stop during the 3rd.
The acting is so over the top.
Are there really such stupid people? The mother of the baby who does everything wrong. The main character who runs away with the sweater over his head, but then doesn't take it off? The actor who doesn't understand what the lead actor means, but instead that somebody would translate to avoid a break in the filming, everybody keeps quiet. The gentlemen who run a boarding house, are on the verge of failure, but when they have guests behave completely unprofessionally?
I like to escape from reality from time to time, but then it should be right. This is just tedious to look at, because it is not a fantasy but also very out of touch with reality.

Long-winded
The story is interesting but lengthy and I wished for an other perpetrator and end.
My impression is that there is always a lot of talk in KDramas, but never what is really important, but maybe it has to do with the culture. Or why wouldn't the leading lady tell her husband that the golfer is her ex-boyfriend, he's bugging her and she's dealing with it. None of this would have happened.
The detective, yes that certainly happens a lot, that they so doggedly want to blame someone and then don't investigate neutrally, but they didn't really follow up on any clues; last call (much later) fingerprints and DNA on airbag. Why did the young presenter call the golfer, why did he have to leave right after the phone call?
Why didn't anyone say it was an accident? It wasn't a murder, sure he covered it up which made it worse, but if he had reported it right away?
The one in the newsroom (not Mr. Jang) was super annoying, but there's one of those in every KDrama.

The other Kdrama - can totally recommend
I love Korean dramas but sometimes you get the feeling that the plot is a bit over the top.
In my opinion, this story could happen this way. There were no blatant fighting scenes where one person made 20 others harmless, the corruption was not excessive and it was not a triangular relationship (boy 2 wants girl 1, but girl 1 wants boy 1 who in turn wants girl 2). It has action, family, a little love and friendship. The only thing I think is a shame is that investigator Kang takes all the laurels and presents himself as if he would never give up until he has the true criminal. But it was actually Lieutenant Oh who investigated the matter at the beginning and it was also him who continued to investigate after his cousin's conviction. There is also a pale aftertaste when investigator Kang is ready to make the same mistake, just to get Jong Tae behind bars.

It felt so real!!!!
I recently started watching Korean, Chinese and Taiwanese series.
I really do like the stories and can hardly make myself not wathing the entire thing in one go.
What does bother me are these mothers (specially the one from 'Bap Jal Sajuneun Yeppeun Nuna'. It's sad to see how they use their children, saying they want them to have a good life but probably they just want to show off to the other mothers. About how the kids handle these situations I won't say anything as I don't know if it's exagerated or if this is really still this way.
This series also had some selfish mothers and a selfish father, all of them were just interested in business. Fortunately the kids didn't give in.
Wei Fen Qing
She was able to handle all problems but had no sensitivity.
She would get jealous, mad, worried and knew she liked him. He created so many opportunities where she couuld have admitted her feelings, not sure if a 27 year old would actually react they way she did. Specially not after they had kissed and he had confessed about 20 times before that he liked her.
I wished after the departure of Ting En that she would have yelled at Shao Wei. Even if at the end it wasn't true, but Ting En told her that he was also a reason for his decision.
What really enoyed me was when at the meeting with the lawyer she asked why Ting En hadn't told or asked her. Well she must admit, he had confessed several times that he liked her. She never reacted normally and she also always asked Shao Wei for help.
The scene with the glass door was intense. Oh did I cry, my heart hurt, it felt so real, great acting.
Huo Ting En
Every time he confessed that he liked her and she reacted so brutally, my heart broke for him. To me his acting was so good, it all felt so real. For me it's difficult to believe, that this person does not exist in reality.
When Fen Qing moved in with this family his mum was really rude, I wished he would have stopped that.
I loved the scene downstairs in the lobby, when he told her, that he was jealous.
Meng Saho Wei
A good friend to Fen Qing but also root of so many problems. At some point his selfish behavior annoyed me. If he loved her so deeply, he should want her to be happy.
Meng Ru Xi
She really made it heart not to cheer for her and hoping for a happy end with Wei Fen Qing. She was just fighting for who she loved, no intrigue, she even helped when she knew that Ting En was really not interested in her.
Peng Xiao Bin
That is what I call a real friend. Unconditional loyalty. And I really hoped he would get together with the curry-bread lady.
This is my first review, please excuse if it's not what a review should look like.
I did skip the flashbacks, and I didn't like when the music suddenly stopped in a scene and a new song began.
It is difficult to understand certain things which probably has to do with the cultural differences. Therefore I would love to watch such series with a Korean, Chinese or Taiwanese who knows about the life there.
I never was attracted to asian men but these series.....
So I watched the whole thing in one go and finished it yesterday. After getting so invested I really have the feeling to know Huo Ting En and have a crush on him (I must be crazy). This also happened with Ye Shuwei from 'I hear you'.
I really have to tell myself, that these guys are not real, that they're just acting and that noone is so cute and attentive.
Well I would love to see more of them, it felt so real.

Disappointing
The trailer was promising but at the end I must say it was a disappointment. So many things that are unrealistic: Emergency call center, code zero, everybody would know what their job is but they wait to get orders from the female main character to track a mobile or a car? - One person drives within a few minutes from one crime scene, to a press conference to a 2nd crime scene and the local forces arrive at the same time or even later - one gets within three minutes to a crime scene, the other detective hasn't even left the police station in the same time - sometimes they need to press on the micro to talk and sometimes not - very slow reaction time, they wait at their desk for all the information and then run to their car, or they discuss instead of trying to find the victim, really? - and who would only walk around a corner or go into the interrogation room to make a confidential phone call? etc.
I know it's TV but serious it's annyoing when they make such unrealistic scenes.
Chomyeone Saranghamnida (2019)
Really?!
I am at Episode 9 but can barely continue watching. The female lead role, serious so annoying! Who would do something like this, specially to someone you say you like. So selfish!!!!!
