I completely agree with you about Pyo Ye-jin, both in Our Blooming Youth & What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim. I haven’t watched Taxi Driver yet, so I don’t know her role there. I will be on the lookout for her work.

@s1m0n4 I would agree that I would have liked to see all the romances more fully played out - I think the sergeant and princess, the servant and teacher, and the prince and his love. I like a more definite ending, but the I also think the writers are stuck in a quandry. If they pick an ending that doesn't align with the audience's feelilngs, then they complain. By leaving these things ambiguous, everyone gets to imagine their own happy ending. I would have loved to have seen at least a couple more episodes showing how everyone ended up living happily ever after. Still gets a 10 out of 10 stars from me because in my imagination, the ending is wonderful.

@cinderdazzle612 He really does - even in the middle of being cursed and trying to solve a mystery. He was perfect for this role!

Our Blooming Youth (20 episodes on Viki)
Another one I'm sad to see end. I will miss the characters. It was fantastic. Even as a mystery, it will be a rewatch for me. The acting is stellar. The twists were unexpected. There is a complicated mystery with political intrigue, friendships, comedy, romance and some action. It’s a commentary on trust, the importance of friends, social injustices and how they can drive people to do things they wouldn't normally, on women's voices, and how powerful people will do anything to maintain their power.

Our Blooming Youth @ ep 10
2023 - watching on Viki
I am so thrilled with this show!! The mystery is great so far and the main romance reminds me of “Strong Woman Do Bong Soon” - Park Hyung-sik is so talented at falling in love without realizing it!
I love the strong women and statements about women’s empowerment in this show. It’s sad that a character has to be a eunuch rather than a woman just to have a voice - and that it is still true in many case now. It also has beautiful friendships.
Trying to savor it, but I don’t know if I have the willpower.

OK so there’s something going on with orphans. We know Yeong was an orphan. Is it because they recruit among the children? Raise them for a specific purpose? Threaten or guilt trip them in doing things? And how about the Kkot-nyeo couple? They’re fishy as all heck—especially him, but they do send rice to the children and want to go “back home.” Are they indebted former orphans?
And how about the fish? Dude obviously wanted to avoid the subject. #KDrama #OBY
