King the Land
(2023 Netflix, 16 1:20 eps)

On the surface, this is a fun, over-the-top, fairy-tale, trope-filled kDrama rom-com. The leads are wonderful, sweet & perfect (maybe too perfect), with great chemistry. The 2nd couples' relationships are also fun to watch. The product placement can be annoying because there is so much.

The scenery & sets are stunningly beautiful. There's a past trauma & family problems to overcome. I binged this one, not because of a compelling storyline, but because it was so cute.

Unfortunately, if you look a little deeper, I felt that the commentary on the big social problem was handled poorly. [See spoiler comment]

The K2 (2016)

Ji Chang-wook makes an excellent spy/agent. K2 was obviously written to show off this talent. The story is sloppy and patched together with political intrigue that comes out of nowhere and people switching sides faster than you can keep track.

That said, I really enjoyed it and may even rewatch, but would only recommend it to people who like Ji Chang-wook beating up dozens of other agents & police every episode. The battle choreography is beyond belief (seriously - only a real superhero could do that). I'm not sure if it was meant to be satirical, but if you just take it at face-value as an action series, it's a fun watch.

The 2 female leads, Im Yoon-ah & Song Yoon-ah were also excellent with the characters they were given. I even ended up feeling sorry for the villain.

Big Mouth was a great kdrama, but unfortunately it felt like they left some questions unanswered. Even so, Lee Jong Suk & Yoon Ah both did an amazing job. Their acting was on point, and so was their chemistry. 🔥
