I taught the same thing while watching it. Really really good show just finished it.

If ya looking for more korean shows, there’s a free app called Viki in the AppStore and u just create a free account and u got access to 100’s of korean and Chinese shows with subs.

Just finished My Mister. Really good show. Need to find more piff.

Just started using the Viki app on my Roku (available for Android too) props to @Chaval

I used it to watch the first two eps of Flower Of Evil which is starting to look like a Korean version of Dexter. The detectives looking way more competent tho :dead:

Lawless Lawyer seems to have a good premise too. It's about a reformed gangster turned lawyer that's going after some corrupt and powerful figures for revenge. :ohhh:

Are there any series with a dark, or mature tone? I tried a few of these (extracurricular, vagabond) and couldn't get into them.

Kingdom is the only series I fukked with.

I think Kingdom and Extracurricular are the darkest it gets and that's because those are real Netflix originals (all episodes dropped day one for those two btw). The others that got the OG stamp are shows that aired on Korean TV that Netflix paid for simultaneous broadcast or copped them for streaming rights. The TV censorship laws in Korea are more strict so you're not gonna get western style rated R content.

They go hard on their movies though if you want recommendations for that I got you covered.

I'm deep into Korean cinema. Love Park Chan Wook's work in particular. And shyt like I Saw the Devil, The Chaser, Memories of Murder are some of my favorites.

It's too bad their TV scene isn't on the same level.

I'll have to revisit Extracurricular, I turned it off less then 10 minutes in :skip:

:russ: Yeah, that's not a fair shot. I would give it 3-4 episodes to see if it grabs you. One thing I noticed with these Kdramas is that since they got a long as fukk seasons and it can take a few episodes before I can declare them trash or not.

Like Rugal and Possessed :hhh: I should have known Rugal was trash by the first two but Possessed tricked the fukk out of me.

Currently, watching Rugal. It's not bad. Not quite piff though.
