The episode starts with a flashback (7 years ago) of Yoo Tan perfoming an indie rock song before singing a romantic ballad. He then hops off the stage to confess his love for Da In.
Back to present day, where a kpop girl group is performing in front of an enthusiastic crowd. However, the moment Yoo Tan, Da In and the rest of the band start performing their song, the audience starts to leave. A drunkard man mocks Yoo Tan for acting cool, and that Da In should start dancing. He continues to throw food and mocks the band. Yoo Tan tries his best to focus on singing (the song he is singing is soo good) but he can no longer take it and walks off the stage. A girl with red hoodie watches him walks off.
Da In questions him for leaving the stage half-way but sweetly tells him to take care of his throat and to eat before coming the next day. However, Yoo Tan loses his cool at her naggings and tells her off.
He then meets the girl with red hoodies selling matchsticks. Concerned that a little girl is left alone but without a penny to spare, he left her with a sweet.
The next day, Yoo Tan wakes up in his slightly messy room. His fridge is filled with food containers labelled with handwritten notes. We see Yoo Tan’s financial problems pilling up with a phone call from bank, lawsuit note from not paying rent, debtors waiting outside his house. To make it worse, he nearly got crashed by a motorbike. Things are getting ominious huh...
He ignores his dad who sells street food for a living. But things start to pick up for our hero with a contract from an entertainment company. However, the requirements are that he needs to leave the band and Da In. Yoo Tan hestitaes but cooly rejects the offer.
‘My dream cannot be bought with your drity money. My music. Never’
Unfortunately, Kang CEO mocks him that she is indeed not buying his dream nor his music. She is buying him to repackage him as a product to sell and that dreams are only for those below the age of 20.
Yoo Tan is late for the band practice as a result. He is distracted by the offer and left the practice. Da In chases after him and gives him a knitted scarf to a unappreciative Yoo Tan.
Yoo Tan faces more financial woes. During a performance, Yoo Tan announces to a small crowd that the band will be breaking up during a performance. A disappointed Da In told Yoo Tan not to contact her for the time being, to which Yoo Tan took the chance to break up with her.
He left with Kang CEO to a company gathering where he gets drunk and recalls sweet memories of Da In & him. He comes to a river to throw away his phone, but in the process, ends up falling into the river as well. The girl with the red hoodie walks on water, watches Yoo Tan drowns and lights up a matchstick.
The problem with live audience voting in SMTM is not just questionable voting criteria. Sometimes, it appears that popularity will help the rappers secure votes even if the rapper did not perform to expectations.
It seems that there are 2 types of songs which are to the audience’s liking - sentimental and pump-up. You either make the audience cry or get hyped up.
As a result, any styles beside these 2 do not work well. I believe this is why ‘Comfortable’ lost. Although some people consider ‘Comfortable’ to be the better song out of the two and despite One’s popularity, ‘Going Home’ won as it falls under the category of sentimental songs. Of course, there are exceptionals where sentimental and pump-up songs lose.
Playing the sentimental card is however a one-trick pony. The players can only use it once.
They have changed the concept of the 1st Public Performance to Individual VS Individual. Whoever has the lowest performance fee will be eliminated. Hence, the MC kept stressing that there is a possibility that the entire team including the producers will be eliminated.
Each of losing teams from the diss battle chooses a member whom they think perform the best during the diss battle to perform solo. The producers will then choose one out of the remaining two members to perform with them based on the rehearsals.
As for the winning teams, all members will get to perform on stage. Judging from the snippets of the winning teams, it seems that the member who performs the best will be the one performing with the producers. The remaining two seems to be performing as duo.
[Rappers & Producers Stages]
Team YG VS Team Illionaire
-Seo Chul Goo VS Flowsick
Team AOMG VS Team Mad Clown & Gil (they need a shorter group name)
-One VS #Gun
[Solo Stage]
Team AOMG VS Team Mad Clown & Gil
-Boi B VS Bewhy
[Duo (?) Stage]
Team YG VS Team Illionaire
-Reddy & CJamm VS Myundo & Superbee
That means the rumoured top 4 list that is floating around actually doesn’t make sense, and I refuse to believe Bobby will not help team 1illionaire.
I won't be translating comments from Korean news article anymore because I personally dislike the effect it has on people. People seem to seek the approval of the Korean netizens. It elevates the comments, the opinions into something of importance, when frankly the comments do not mean much. The bad comments on the articles are like typing 'myungsoo bad' on search engines, and reading the negative words. Just because they are written by people of the same nationality as the idols, just because people are willing to translate it, doesn't make those comments more worthy than yours or my opinion. It is like going to a news website and seeing majority negative comments of your government and think that the current government will lose power comes the next election, yet that same government gets re-elected. People tend to forget that the majority you see on the Internet are actually the minority. The majority of the population is actually silent. Those negative comments will not affect Myungsoo or Infinite.
Title: "My Lovely Girl" Jung Soo Jung-L, Slap and Fighting 'The Start of a Twisted Fate'
Source: Naver
[+1466, -38] L is playing the role of a jerk this time round...ㅇㅅaㅇ
[+1309, -37] What's 'Infinite Power'
[+1265, -397] Both of their actings have grown a lot compared to before
[+1078, -303] L 's visual ㅎㄷㄷ He is kinda cute even though he is playing a jerk
[+906, -311] Although his character has poor upbringing, but I'm not the only one who thinks he is charismatic right?
[+225, -29] The two of them are more compatible
[+135, -62] Everyone can see L's growth whenever he acts in a drama, so what's with the fuss? Instead of thinking of his flaws, one should also look at his efforts. If you want to criticise, go criticise the scriptwriter for writing such a horrible script.
I swear some of you are way too judgemental. Even before the drama even airs, people were like "Myungsoo doesn't even have to act, Si Woo is just a combination of L and Myungsoo". Now that the 1st episode airs, which he actually has only 7 minutes of screen time, people were like "Myungsoo is playing a jerk", "Myungsoo doesn't suit playing emotionless character". I'm not going to argue whether Myungsoo suits the role or not, but rather how good the character Si Woo is.
There are multiple character descriptions of Si Woo floating around the Internet, and all of them just scream character depth. If you even bother reading the other characters' descriptions, Si Woo is by far the most complicated character in the drama. Even from the first episode, you can tell that he is not the conventional 2nd male lead in Korean dramas that acts as the guardian of the female lead. He clashes with Se Na right from the start. Most importantly, Si Woo has a story of his own. His character exists not only because according to the Korean drama template, you need to have a 2nd male lead who will love the female lead. Si Woo's storyline extends beyond his love-line with Se Na and his rivalry with Hyun Wook.
Loveline: He is originally in love with Ra Eum, then falls in love with Se Na.
His Relationship with Hyun Wook: They don't have a friendly relationship as the CEO and the celebrity and now they are love rivals.
Family: He is filial towards his mother but he has family issues.
As an Idol: He didn't become an idol because that's his dream. He got into an idol group, Infinite Power, which in the end abandoned him and left him on his own.
Personality: Every character description has described Si Woo as having a fragile heart. Yet people still think Si Woo is emotionless. Speechless.
There's not much to analyse about his personality from the mere 7 minutes, but Si Woo is clearly sensitive and jaded hence his paranoia towards Se Na.
Si Woo is alive as a a character as he will fall from fame and pick himself up. He will scream, he will cry and he will laugh. As a fan, I 'd rather Myung Soo plays a character that tests and stretches his acting abilities, than to play a role as Gil, who honestly serves nothing than to be sassy towards his boss.
I think people need to realise that there 're a lot of media outlets in Korea. This means that a topic or an issue can have lots of articles. However, when language is a barrier, we are dependent on translations. It's as though translations are our spectacles, without it, all we can see is blurred views. We can only see clearly when there are translations, however, we forget about that blind spot when there are no translation.
Anyway, back to the main point. When we see 4 articles on the same topic with negative comments, it is easy to assume that the comments in general are negative. But that’s not true. Those comments are merely from 3 articles out of soooo many. I have seen positive comments on Myung Soo’s acting in ‘My Lovely Girl’ in more than 3 articles. In fact, there ‘s 1k+ up vote on a comment praising both Myung Soo and Krystal on their improved acting. It’s just unfortunate that the 4 articles translated have negative comments. It’s not the fault of the translator either as there are so many articles. Besides she already states in her disclaimer that the comments do not reflect the opinion of general population. Unfortunately, Myung Soo will forever have negative comments on his acting, because even if he can fix his flaws, he can’t change his voice. If people can’t even take him seriously when he sings, what make you think they will when he acts.
what's the point in being a fan of someone and saying i love him blah blah blah and yet all it takes is just a photo of a similar accessory to jump into conclusions and your trust in him just shattered like that?
it just reflects a terrible lack of trust you have in the person you fan. That you never really believe that they broke up. That's why you still keep track of someone whom you're not even a fan of. In case of "signs" like this.
The most ridiculous part is the so called object of suspicion is not even the same item. That we have not one but two fan sites, coming out to clarify that the bracelet he is wearing is a fan gift and he has been wearing it. Even she who shall not named posted a picture of black hair bands (which is so common).
