  1. Sharing this because the uploader creates awesome MVs from currently airing dramas
  2. I think the timeslot remains the same that is why some of the fans are mad in the comments why the change was done only now. Three dramas could have the potential to have more good ratings if not for the late slot. The official MV of Feel You is now out,just in time for the episode tonight ! Love the last part !
  3. [Pᴇʀꜱᴏɴᴀʟɪᴛʏ] Lᴇᴇ Jᴏᴏɴ Gɪ ʙʀᴇᴀᴋꜱ ᴛʜᴇ ᴍᴏʟᴅ ᴀɴᴅ ᴄᴏᴍᴇꜱ ɪɴᴛᴏ ʙʟᴏᴏᴍ, ᴏɴᴄᴇ ᴀɢᴀɪɴ, ᴀꜱ ᴀɴ ᴀᴄᴛᴏʀ ᴡɪᴛʜ ɪʀʀᴇꜱɪꜱᴛɪʙʟᴇ ᴄʜᴀʀᴍ I thought it was Lee Joon Gi. But it wasn’t Lee Joon Gi as I knew him. I’m talking about that ‘Lee Joon Gi’ who’s starring in tvN’s Wed/Thu drama ‘Flower of Evil.’ In fact, early on in the drama, people suspected Do Hyunsoo, who’s been posing as Baek Heeseong, of having committed the murder because he is the son of serial killer Do Minseok and a psychopath. Of course, from Episode 2 onwards, Do Hyunsoo has proven people wrong by, for instance, setting Kim Moojin free after having him locked up, and letting Park Gyungchun live despite what the latter put him through. In a turn of events after another, the doubts about Hyunsoo dissipated. Even then, however, there still remained a doubt that Hyunsoo might be the accomplice. Later on, the real killer of the village head turned out to be his sister Haesoo. Hyunsoo’s persistent search for the accomplice to clear his name has dissipated viewers’ doubts. Then, doubtful viewers started to look at Baek Manwoo, who made Hyunsoo, a wanted suspect, pretend to be his son, as a possible killer. Such a plot twist after another has made people give a thumbs up to the meticulously-written script. But when I said “I thought it was Lee Joon Gi, but it wasn’t Lee Joon Gi,” I was not merely talking about the drama’s plot. It is also about the way the industry and viewers look at Lee Joon Gi as a leading actor. While in awe because this is not the same ‘Lee Joon Gi’ as they have seen, they are also surprised by his more mature acting skills. Ever since he skyrocketed to stardom through his movie ‘King and the Clown,’ he has always wowed people with his acting, but how come these people suddenly began to see him in a new light through ‘Flower of Evil’? People sometimes say there’s a moment when actors break the mold they have built for themselves and evolve. It seems now is exactly that moment for Lee Joon Gi. I have seen him in a wide range of works and he’s been such a multitalented and diligent actor. He has always done a great job, and has always worked hard. This time, he has also succeeded in giving a performance where he looks more comfortable with his role. From some point onwards, it seemed the talent and the hard work that he had put in stood out more prominently off-screen, instead of being absorbed naturally into the project he did. But in ‘Flower of Evil,’ the actor is hooking viewers into the story thoroughly as his character himself. He no longer looks like ‘star Lee Joon Gi,’ but he looks like ‘Do Hyun Soo’ in a crisis. Watching Do Hyun Soo in the drama, viewers felt chills down their spines early on, and now feel sympathy and sadness for him. He was a complex, mysterious character because initially it was hard to stay whether this cold psychopath was pretending to be a husband and father in a happy family, or he really meant it. But when he told his sister he never loved Cha Jiwon, viewers’ hearts sank. However, as the drama went through ups and downs, both Do Hyunsoo and viewers have come to realize that what he’s been feeling is love. Viewers end up cheering on this desperate character Do Hyunsoo, and it’s because of Lee Joongi’s engrossing performance. At this point I should mention Kim Chulgyu’s directing skills. In the hands of this director, who presented quality works such as tvN ‘Mother’ and KBS2 ‘On the Way to the Airport,’ Lee Joongi’s acting truly shines through. Director Kim’s magic touch does the trick for the other actors, as well. If anyone doubted Moon Chaewon could play a homicide detective, they should be silent now. He also chose Seo Hyunsoo, a lesser known actor, for the major role of Kim Moojin, and has helped him become a reliable actor. Viewers would not be tearing up watching the Do Hyunsoo and Cha Jiwon couple who cry desperately, without Lee Joongi and Moon Chaewon’s acting skills, as well as the directing skills of the director who orchestrates the whole drama. This is why I agree with the tagline that describes ‘Flower of Evil’: intense, emotional chase thriller. I am curious about the ending of ‘Flower of Evil,’ a mysterious viewing experience since it makes us see an actor in a new light and view a genre picture as a romance drama. It has been a meticulously-crafted, entertaining ride, so just a plain ‘happy ending’ would be out of the question. With only five episodes remaining, the drama is raising our expectations, making us wonder how many more plot twists there will be, and what kind of powerful ending ‘Flower of Evil’ will leave us with. from naver article translated by allaboutjoongi
  4. DAY 2 𝐹𝒶𝓋𝑒 𝒫𝒽𝑜𝓉𝑜 She look like a goddess !
  5. Show is having good performance both from critical and commercial response !
  6. @Tofu - the dialogue of grandpa and Hye Joon always tug my heartstrings. Their conversation are heartfelt specially with the chemistry of the two actors. About the sponsorship, I guess this is a risk for them to discuss as early as now. Also it cracks me up about the bold statement of Charlie to Hye Joon. How can he just represent us fangirls ? @stroppyse The jajangmyeon vs jjampong reference was humble yet striking . I am happy to see their dynamics together because Hye Joon needs someone whom he can call home - could be a person whom he can be safe, comfortable and valued. Bogum's update. (It could be his agency is the one updating since he is already enlisted?) Ratings : Episode 2 Nationwide: 6.802 % Seoul: 8.217%
  7. Cha Tae Hyun is considering too
  8. 𝔻𝕠 𝕐𝕠𝕦 𝕃𝕚𝕜𝕖 𝔹𝕣𝕒𝕙𝕞𝕤 Fɪʟᴍɪɴɢ Lᴏᴄᴀᴛɪᴏɴ Episode 4 - I was delighted to saw the clip on twitter for this scene. I was amazed on how pretty it was during the nighttime ! The location is at Cheonggyecheon Stream (청계천) Other dramas filmed here (according to my drama list) were Chicago Typewriter and Live Up To Your Name. How to get here : Directions [Subway] - City Hall, Jonggak, Jongno 3(sam)-ga, Jongno 5(o)-ga, Dongdaemun, Sinseol-dong Stations (Seoul Subway Line 1) - City Hall, Euljiro 1(il)-ga, Euljiro 3(sam)-ga, Euljiro 4(sa)-ga, Sindang, Sangwangsimni Stations (Seoul Subway Line 2) - Jongno 3(sam)-ga Station (Seoul Subway Line 1, 3 and 5) - Dongdaemun History & Culture Park Station (Seoul Subway Line 4) - Gwanghwamun Station (Seoul Subway Line 5) TIP: This could be your additional DIY itinerary , if you plan to visit Gyeongbukgung and Deoksugung Palace. You will also be able to see King Sejong statute on the way here.
  9. Wow Jo In Sung is back! I read some articles that he and HHJ are still in talks. But hoping they will both take this!
  10. @stroppyse I love the dynamics of grandpa and Hye Joon . What a duo of crybabies comforting each other, being honest on what they feel. They cry, I cry. When they both hold hands to go to their room I cant even see the screen properly because they got me in tears again. Then the door fell ! This show and its comedic timing. I guess the reason why Jungha witheld then knowledge of her being a fan to Hye Joon is because she does want to stay grounded? She could be labeled as a dense fan but at the same time I agree with her. And the designer offering sponsorship to Hye Joon. Wow. I didn’t see that coming from the show. It’s like the writer opened a pandora box for audience to see. What an irony that someone like the designer would throw the bone at Hye Joon when the reason is “love” and not business. Meanwhile Hye Joon is being pressured by his own family to reject reality in order for him to earn money instead of pursuing his passion. I would want to understand the parents on this, but applying my own experience I would be the grandpa crying over his grandson’s hustles in order to get what he want by doing what he like. The noona manager is adorable !
  11. ᒍOOᑎᑕᕼᗩE 𝒸𝒶𝓈𝓉𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝓈𝓉♡𝓇𝓎 As told by Lee Joon Gi and Moon Chae Won The reunion--Three years in the making When the casting for Criminal Minds Kr was announced, I remember I was squealing both in my desk and on twitter. As if there are kdrama gods out there that synchronized all possibilities for this pairing to happen. Then it struck me that Criminal Minds is a crime procedural drama. NO LOVE ARC. It got me mixed emotions then, because I was so trusting with the anticipated chemistry of these two stars, not discounting their acting chops offered on the table. The die is cast. Okay then, let's enjoy the show ! Right after the presscon, me and my friends were giddy once again after Lee Joon Gi pronounced this one: He also mentioned on vlive that both him and Chaewon agreed that they need to have a comeback project in the future--a melodrama /romance drama as the genre. After Criminal Minds , they both ventured in another drama projects in 2018. Lee Joon Gi took another action/romance drama "Lawless Lawyer" while Moon Chae Won worked on "Mama Fairy and the Woodcutter". 2019 was a year of break from both of them. Joongi became busy since April of that year for his Delight tour. Meanwhile , Chaewon showed a glimpse of her personal life thru her instagram's movie recos. Then around September, some changes were noticed by Chaewon's fans. She again followed Namooactor's account, at the same time began liking photos related to Criminal Minds/Joongi. In October , another series of movie recos were posted by Chaewon--with themes related to dark / noir romance. Joongi also posted one video hinting a comeback--a rose and a knife with hashtag new movie. In January 14, 2020, news of casting was released. Lee Joon Gi and Moon Chae Won reunites in a romance-suspense drama as husband and wife. Fate and Destiny This is becoming a label of sort to this couple, because there were side stories revealed about the process of casting for this drama. We usually find details of the behind the scenes from few dramas, a discretion of the PD if they opt to reveal or not (for example, Hospital Playlist) . In the case of Flower of Evil, we learned of the following events, thanks to Joongi's IG live, the process were elaborated more than what we initially learned from the 10min interview by tvN. I am very confident that these two are super close as of now. In Korea, there is this culture of them not easily giving your number away even to your co-actors. Perfect example is when Joongi mentioned in healing camp that he doesn't have Shin Min Ah 's number. And the amount of phone calls these two had? JG mentioned during his vlive interview in LL that he is more on text messages. Also , Moon Chae Won usually don't make phone calls with opposite sex. Are they really that close? Yes. For one, the worries JG mentioned were shared to her. And they are still in the casting process. At least we know that Chaewon understood JG's worries when it comes to accepting a project that may affect both of their image. And they were happy after that. We can see through the presscon how they brag about this drama, hoping that this will be their another phase of life character. It also shows on the finished material every episode that is airing. Their chemistry had been upgraded that their bond is one among the most admired out there. And thanks to @atingngpex for this :

  13. ᗩᒪᎥᑕᗴ ғιlмιng locaтιon Episode 3: Park Jin Gyeom and Min Hyeok 's fight scene The iconic fight sequence of Park Jin Gyeom versus a bunch of guys in matrix suit lead by his supposed hottie dad Minhyeok in episode 3 was remarkable because of the whimsical location. This place is a cafe garden shop "Forest Outing" located outside of Seoul. There are a lush of greens inside the cafe, no wonder the production did not miss to make Joo Won stride the garden with his tarzan stint. The way to Forest Outings From the nearest Gyeongi Line Baekma Station 🚶🏻 30 minutes on foot 🚎 15 minutes by bus (Baekma Station Exit 1-Bus No. 11-Get off at Meal Ogeori, Yeongsim-dong Village) You may check their Instagram for inquiries. source blog
  14. I also like how the first episode displayed how his struggles are . He's still the puppy grandson, thoughtful friend, welcoming part timer but then those pent up anger in his heart --i felt that, apart from the scar he got from the annoying actor.

  18. Moonlights on twitter (k-fans and i fans ) made a 30 day challenge for Bbongu ! Here is my DAY 1 : 𝑅𝑒𝒶𝓈𝑜𝓃 𝓌𝒽𝓎 𝐼 𝓁𝒾𝓀𝑒 𝒞𝒽𝒶𝑒𝓌𝑜𝓃 There are maybe a lot of reasons why I like her as an actress. Aside from her elegant , goddess like beauty, Moon Chae Won exudes enigma which I find very attractive of her. She is a quiet , introvert person in real life--with only a few off cam photos , videos or blog about her. Despite her mysticism , she is one among those who evoke class when it comes to philosophies in life. She had proven her niche in the entertainment industry with her various fantastic performance in her projects. With that she becomes an epitome of dreams do come true if you work hard for it.
  19. @stroppyse I also finished episode 1 without knowing it! I like how it is relaxed , taking its time to built the tension until the first meeting of the two leads. And wow, from the teasers alone I already felt the chemistry of Bogum and Park Sodam —their first meeting did not disappoint 🥰.
