    I have reached a point of confusion. Remember the scene where Hyun Soo was being robbed and choked. His dad appeared in front of him and said Kill HIM!!! But the next time we see him, he actually leaves him after he repeated the words Ji Won said. So what does that mean.

     

    It was all in his head, that his father is haunting him. My understand is that as a serial killer son, he was being "brain-washed" by everyone that he'll be like his Dad. However, when he decided he wants to be with Ji Won, he tells his Dad to leave, and the Dad did. There was another scene he mentioned before that Ji Won had to be around him so that he won't see his Dad again. It just means he can't afford to lose her, with her, he can be a normal person.

     

    This "seeing his father" representation was also used in Born Again. @SilverMoonTea can fill you in on that LOL.

    I took a peek at YSJ thread, and wow, it's amazing with how complete his information.

    I started his thread at you-know-where so his info is more comprehensive 😄 

     

    Oh now I'm reminded of a query I have, @bluepebbles, to register for the new actor thread, do we provide you the link in the directory thread or we tagged one of you in the actor's thread?

    I am actually really surprised that the cat is out of the bag so quickly. Now things are going to be difficult for Ji Won, having to pretend in front of Hyun Soo. Both will be putting on an act in front of one another. 

     

    I do like that Hyun Soo tries to understand what it feels like for Ji Won to watch him unconscious at the brink of death for 10 whole days. He is learning. I'm still really curious as to what condition he had. Previously I suggested he may have Alexithymia however it seems unlikely because we see that he is genuinely smiling naturally sometimes, especially towards the daughter. 

     

    Anyway, looking forward to the new episodes!

    Basically the Prosecution in SK is very powerful and they can override Police authority . So that's why there's a constant power struggle between the two enforcement agencies. The police want to have back some autonomy as their investigations are often wasted effort as the Prosecution will overrule their decisions. Both agencies constantly accuse each other of corruption to undermine each other's  influence and authority. So this joint committee they are setting up is supposedly to repair the damaged relationship and come to a truce ...which of course isn't gonna happen easily since both Choi Bit and Chief Woo have been thinking rather strategically about who they are gonna have in the committee.

     

    I find Choi Bit's character rather fascinating. I don't know if she has skeletons in her cupboard, though smarmy salesman Dong Jae seems to have dirt in that department. But I do think she's very shrewd and knows how to play dirty too. Going to see the dead boy's father and holding a press con after that was rather sneaky but smart.  On the surface it would seem that Chief Woo would be her nemesis , but I have a suspicion they will have each other's back later on.

     

    I read on Weibo a post mentioning that President Moon has changed this. The bill was passed so now the Prosecution and Police force are to work together as equal, unlike how it used to be. The post thus said, SF2 must be basing its story around this. When I read it the poster wrote it in the way that SF2's story must be set in when the change took effect. Based on episode 2, it appears this is based on before the bill was passed by the politicians (I don't remember what's the name of the parties etc lol). They went through a few rounds (in real life) so not even sure which round is SF2 based on. From what I can gather, Prosecution is definitely doing whatever they can to stop this from happening and Shi Mok and Yeo Jin are stuck in a hard rock and place. Nooooooo. I want to see them eat together again like in SF1!

     

    I am curious where Shi Mok's stand in this one. I know Yeo Jin would obviously want to fight for "equality".

     

    Both Choi Bit and Chief Woo are fishy to me. SF1 taught us that 😛 and by the way, the Chinese community has a nickname for Seo Dong Jae. They called him "glare-glare" （瞪瞪）coz of his eyes 🤣

    My verdict on the show :

    • The cases on the dark foggy sea was quite fascinating. So there is actually no active murderer, but just a gross negligance that causing life lost. The dark setting and the background music all felt very cohesive, I felt it was like crime novel brought into a life. 

     

    • The theme of police & prosecutor fighting for independence right to investigate is not so new. Many dramas have brought this before. But I do have hope there might be a plot twist into it later. Choi Bit does sound suspicious, but suspect it might not all that. She's also kind of supportive to Yeo Jin in a way. And Tae Ha also might have his own agenda as well. As S1 idea was : there is no one real bad or real good, and even the main villain was actually have a decent ideas for justice. 

     

    • On the lighter note, so Yeo Jin and Shi Mok have not met for 2 years I guess? Btw, he's not keeping the smiley pictures in his desk anymore? Ha! I hope he does. And since he's not going to stay in his old apartment, I guess she can't just visit him freely like last time lols. Hmm yeah you all get me. Shipper start talking here haha.... 

     

    The foggy scene - the whole time I thought someone was going to appear in front of Shi Mok's car or Shi Mok is going to hit someone. I was bracing for a scary moment 😄 

     

    Really? They didn't meet up at all for 2 years? What is wrong with them, LOL. That's not very nice to the shippers 🤭😝 I really do hope the Show is just trolling us and them being on opposite side will not last too long in the whole season.

    You already reserved a lot of space! I give likes until I am also tired already 

    Ohhh, smart you, looking at the codes. Thanks!

    I did, and it never seem enough because of my OCD wanting them to look super neat. 😅 I think it looks better now that I split them to separate posts. If Soju can widen the width of the column it would be great; lessen the scrolling when there's long texts and photos in the post.

    [News] 2017.12.10 Yang Se Jong, Woo Do Hwan and Jang Ki Yong shares their thoughts about each other

    by S. Park

    Yang Se Jong, Woo Do Hwan, and Jang Ki Yong are being referred to as the 92-line of super rookie actors who graced TV screens this year. A Korean media outlet asked each of these three actors their thoughts about each other.

     

    Yang Se Jong first met viewers through SBS’s “Romantic Doctor Kim” in 2016, appeared in the sageuk (Korean historical) drama “Saimdang, Light’s Diary,” and played dual roles on OCN’s “Duel,” before stealing hearts on SBS’s “Degree of Love.”

     

    On his fellow 92-line actors, Yang Se Jong said, “When I first started acting, I acted because I was stimulated by something. It was my school [Korean National University of Arts] that made me realize that. Everyone has a different way of practicing, but I thought that it would hurt me if I acted in order to compete with someone else.”

    He continued, “I don’t think people should act while thinking of trying to win over someone else. I only focus on the script and how to best convey it. I think that is the most important. I think people around us are creating this rivalry.”

     

    Woo Do Hwan debuted his acting skills through small roles on MBN’s sitcom “You’re Here, You’re Here, You’re Really Here” in 2011, then tvN’s “Shut Up! Flower Boy Band,” and KBS2’s “The Man Living In Our House.” Then, he gained more attention through the film “Master,” OCN’s “Save Me,” and most recently KBS2’s “Mad Dog.”

     

    Spoiler

    Woo Do Hwan spoke fondly of his fellow 92-line actors and commented, “I saw Yang Se Jong’s good acting on ‘Duel’ and thought it was cool when I later learned that we were the same age. I think he’s an actor with good appeals. I have not yet met him, but if I have the chance, I want to meet him and I think we can become friends. I read his interview articles and he is a cool person with a good mind. I have a lot to learn from him.”

     

    He also talked spoke about Jang Ki Yong and added, “They play re-runs of ‘Go Back Couple’ right after ‘Mad Dog’ so I watched [Jang Ki Yong] in the drama. He is really tall and really cool. I think there are many great, charming people my age which is a good stimulus. I think we can have fun if we were to meet each other on set.”

     

    Jang Ki Yong also played minor roles on multiple dramas. In 2014, he appeared on SBS’s “The Greatest Marriage,” web drama “We Broke Up” in 2015, KBS2’s “Beautiful Mind” in 2016, tvN’s “The Liar and His Lover” in 2017, and most recently KBS2’s “Go Back Couple” as Jang Na Ra’s college senior named Jung Nam Gil.

     

    Spoiler

    As a former model and actor of YG KPLUS, he wowed viewers in his ROTC uniform and acting on the drama. He revealed, “Before I started my latest project [‘Go Back Couple’] I grabbed a beer with a close friend and talked about how it would be nice to be mentioned with actors such as Yang Se Jong and Woo Do Hwan. So it’s really cool that it’s actually happening.”

     

    He continued, “I thought it would be encouraging and thankful just to be mentioned alongside them, so I am really grateful to be mentioned with them. It makes me think that I should work harder now that I have been named with these actors. I am ready to show you more prepared acting in the future.”
