Lee Dong Wook in Bad and Crazy (2021)

cause science 👀

I made fun of the fact that these two played their characters' teen counterparts (by the looks of it, there are gonna be lots of flashbacks) and the use of AI (which is fair), but I did enjoy the show and what this first hour gave me. I like the chemistry between Hyeri and Inyeop a lot, and the story has potential. I'm not looking for any big plot twists or action sequences here; I just want a good feel-good rom-com vibe.

Also, I liked that their reunion 15 years later wasn't this grand event like something out of a movie. It was awkward and pretty down-to-earth (if we forget he was literally stalking her lol).

he looks like he's terminally ill omg what happened?

I liked his flirty attitude, but I know some of it is just to hide the remorse he feels towards her because of whatever happened in the past. I'm sure it was his mother's fault lol. He wants to make it up to her, but I don't think he's going about it in the right direction (ha! get it?). And I do think it's odd that he appears back in her life after achieving her literal dream and becoming some sort of Christopher Nolan. And he's all like "I'll help you fulfill your dream" because ugh it's such a typical male behavior to want to rescue a woman and believe he'd be her hero.

Are you on some show or what? Going on about first love and keeping promises... say any of that, and you're done.

We're not in high school anymore. No reason to hold back.

He's lucky she's not stabbing him in the neck.
