Yeah I got sucked in...Bingeworthy for sure. The assistants running around comment was hilarious! And agree it woulda been better as a movie. Political corruption in South Korea just as dirty as anywhere!
Sounds like my kind of drama! I love Kim Hee-Ae in everything she does, especially Queenmaker. My daughter started Miss Night and Day and highly recommends. A friend is watching Savage Beauty. I'm hooked on Connection and The Player 2.
Hi Anne, I just finished this drama which I somewhat enjoyed. I live outside of Washington, DC so I am already stressed out with our own current political situation much less having to see a similar situation in this drama. It was a little overly dramatic and the constant one upmanship became a little unrealistic. And, every time there was some big dramatic encounter, their phone would ring and they'd answer it. And, I agree everybody's family was secondary and we actually never knew any of their names. I did enjoy seeing a more mature cast of actors as opposed to a bunch of pretty Idols. Watching Miss Night and Day at the same time made this one a little more palatable.
@@obiekat53 Exactly and right now hearing Biden has dropped out couldn’t help and feel American does not like old people! Other cultures revere in the elders but not this country!
I love tve way the show does not treat the audience as if we are stupid. Thrown right in to the deep end of scheming and corruption and expected to pay attention, wereally need more shows like this.
Hi Anne, only watched 1st episode but seems interesting, lots of familiar seasoned actors which is nice,surprised all episodes were released, will continue watching to see how it ends, have you checked out the double life yet?
Think I'll pass on Whirlwind for now. I'm not in a political mood. Glad to see season 2 of Savage Beauty is out, will definitely look at that. Currently I'm watching Supacell on Netflix. It takes place in London, a group of people discover they have superpowers. The only thing that connects them is they are all Black. I'm pleasantly surprised that it's very good. The cast is great, the story was a little weak in the beginning but it gets better as the story progresses. It's only 6 episodes, there must be a 2nd season because I'm on episode 4 and there are so many questions I don't think they can answer in the remaining episodes.
I'm not sure if I'll watch this or not. Right now I'm hooked an an old one on Xumo called Healer. Its very good! I'm still watching Miss Night and Day. I love it! But right now I'm avoiding politics! The real political scene is giving me a headache already! 😂

Hi friend. Do you remember old Frank Capra movies? Gary Cooper is the naive good guy up against coporation or govt officials? It was not preachy just leading by example. If this series had a bit more of that aspect this release could have been on fire. They took the cheap woke way out. So disappointing. 😢😢😢
I'm up to episode 6 and I like it so far. It's good to see mature actors leading in a k-drama, commendable acting.
@@c.s377 Yes! I liked the female actress in Queen maker as well!

@@seriela Yes I loved her in Queen Maker!
It was heartbreaking when they started showing the past on that cliff all 3 were in sync then.
@@moniquemears1117 I know! They really could have changed the world for the better but it wasn’t meant to be! Political power is a very scary beast!
