Some fun Evilive context!
In Evilive ep3, I thought it is quite funny that Dongsoo received the codename “Prince Baby Octopus” and wondered if it’s Doyoung’s idea.
Turns out it’s a mistranslation! Korean fans pointed out that the right translation should be “Prince Squid”, which is a character from a famous Korean cartoon called ‘Dooly the Little Dinosaur’ back in the 80s-90s. Based from the timeline, Doyoung was probably still a kid or a student when it was airing. Kinda endearing and very childish of him to even come up with that idea 😭😭

Looking at these characters, I do see the funny little resemblance between them and the Han brothers 😂😂
Story plot-wised, I think it is a fun and clever little easter egg + hint on what the brothers are scheming on that episode and how it’ll end up, since the cartoon characters always had their plans thwarted in a silly fashion 😭😭 And if it’s really Seo Doyoung’s idea coming up with that codename (most likely imo), I think it adds more nuances and colors to his personality!

Myul Mang lived, after death. He lived. That is all that matters.
I love doom at your service so much😭 I'm rewatching it and I think I'll post think pieces on it after each episode.
I've seen so many reviews about people not enjoying the second half of this show and how a stellar cast was wasted on bad writing but for me, this show works even though I agree that the writing really was lacking in places.
It's funny how sometimes the things we like best are not the things that are perfect, but the ones that are flawed and imperfect and slightly inadequate.
It's so hard to define what brings us joy and comfort and what we find irresistible sometimes.
It's like, why do I adore this show even though there are so many shows out there that are so much better? Why do I think so often of these characters in particular? Why do I keep coming back here?
One of my favorite aspects about DAYS is Seo In Guk as Myul Mang. His character is the bedrock of this show from which everything else springs. I love his cynicism, his pessimism, his pain, his intolerance, his indifference, his quiet, simmering anger, his inability to outgrow his annoyance at the world. I love his audacity, his attitude and his insistent desire to destroy everything. I love that he doesn't hold back and that he doesn't try to be other than what he is. I love how the world slowly enraptures him, how it quietly grasps him into its folds, and doesn't let go. I love how he slowly discovers the world.
Myul Mang's entire existence is in nothingness, and then he is slowly brought into life. It is the opposite of what humans experience, for him it is actually life after death.
Myul Mang is hands down my favourite thing about DAYS.
The only thing I wish for was I wish we could have gotten more of his backstory. I wish he had been given a tangible past, a story that would have made the audience aware of where he was coming from, and thus would have made his motivations clearer, so that we know where he is heading.
Myul Mang lived, after death. He lived. That is all that matters.

DRAMA REVIEW | Perfect Marriage Revenge (2023)
There’s an argument to be made about how Perfect Marriage Revenge had a perfect execution because it was a 12 episodes long drama and didn’t waste time for unnecessary conflicts. Everything took its right time and was resolved in a cohesive way with the characters development.
Both leads were compelling and had amazing chemistry, but the secondary characters were equally interesting to watch. All the performances outstanding and you can tell the actors are enjoying themselves in their respective roles.
On a story about a woman looking for revenge against her own family, this kdrama had a perfect balance between makjang and romcom. Making it an easy and fun watch. I highly recommend it!

when Do Young told Dong Soo 'let's grab a drink' after his law firm opened and they cleaned up the competition and had the corporate dinner...... the way Dong Soo's entire face changed. the way Do Young got in the backseat of the car and left the door open and Oh Jae came towards him like he always does and Dong Soo looked at him the same way he looked at Do Young. the way they drove straight to Do Young's house for that nightcap i'm clawing up the walls
