I saw some discourse that was like "just because jgy loved jin ling doesn't mean jl was safe with jgy" and I just... I mean I see their point but I don't think at all that jgy would ever purposefully hurt jl. All of jin lings suffering was because of the absolute horrors of his world, and jgy was another victim of it whose actions in response to it all indirectly contributed to everything that happened to jl. Let jgy hold his nephew 2k23
absolutely agreed!!! if JGY was the kind of person who wanted Jin Ling dead, he surely would have gotten that out of the way when Jin Ling was a toddler and way easier to kill. but frankly, he has nothing to gain from Jin Ling dying (I know some people imagine he's some kind of regent for Jin Ling in terms of clan leadership, but I don't think that seems to be the case?), setting aside the fact that he clearly loves him and doesn't want him to be harmed.
I guess the argument they're making might be that when the chips are down, JGY would sacrifice JL, as he seems to be ready to do in Guanyin Temple. but I personally do not think he was actually going to hurt him-- which isn't to say that JL wouldn't find that moment deeply traumatic!
but as ever, I think JGY's passion for murder is way overstated. the ending of canon would be so different if JGY had killed even half the people he should have to protect himself. as many people have pointed out, he in fact has a bad habit of getting sentimental about people who it would be far cleaner to kill. nobody would ever have figured out that he murdered his dad if he'd just had xue yang and sisi killed!

Let’s talk Bloodhounds and how we need Netflix to lose the rights to stream kdramas
Tumblr media
Honestly, if it wasn’t for Woo Do Hwan I wouldn’t even be here... but we support princess peach lips so we were sat for the whole 8 episodes.
I feel like the show started off pretty strong, it was interesting to see how they incorporated COVID-19 to be an integral part of the story. The character introductions were decent and the pacing wasn’t too bad the first half of the show. The fight scenes were amazing I do have to say, whoever did the fight choreo outsold truly.
I think everything went downhill end of episode 5/start of episode 6, and that partly has to do with the fact that we only had like 3 episodes left to wrap everything up. After their homebase gets destroyed, and all the senior ex-loan sharks are killed, there was potential for the stakes to be even higher for Gun Woo and Co. but it felt like it fizzled out right after.
They spent a good portion of time showing how the Hyeon Ju, Gun Woo, Woo Jin trio developed and after Mr. Choi’s death they were like oop she’s leaving!!!! While I get that they show Hyeon Ju is averse to the violence required to do what needs to be done earlier in the show, I think it would’ve been a turning point for her character to see how Smile Capital destroyed her life making her willing to do whatever it takes to get revenge.... instead they had her run off like okay?
I know the focus of the show was always Gun Woo and his bromance with Woo Jin and boxing but I think they really did Hyeon Ju a disservice with that “It’s too painful to be here”... and after that the stakes just seemed non-existent? The ending was rushed, like okay we get obvious fan service scenes of the two guys training and deciding to take down Myeong Gil but at the same time it was like... Who cares about that annoying chaebol and his cop cousin... I didn’t care if the video got released, I had no attachment to this loser. Obviously, they were a stepping stone for Gun Woo/Woo Jin to use to take down Myeong Gil but it felt very lackluster...
The use of Mr. Oh and his granddaughter to give Gun Woo a moment of reflection like “I don’t want to repeat history” was so.... I don’t know how to put this eloquently but I think this Netflix formula of having less than 10 episodes really fucked with the writing bc most characters aren’t given time to process their thoughts and emotions after something huge happens.. at least that was how it felt like to me!! The episode restraint also seemed to really fuck with the writing with how everything wrapped up in the last third of the show, not to mention the last minute character introductions? The dirty cop? The granddaughter too, while she was cool... it was like once again idk her!!... The ending felt rushed, and the final fight scenes...... LAME!!!!!!! Do Hwan and Sang Yi looked slayful but other than that... what was the point...
I think it would’ve been cool to get an insight into Myeong Gil himself like why is he the way he is, how did he come across his little crew?? Not much character work was being done in this show :/
The time jump post-Mr. Choi also was kind of muddy, and I feel like it would’ve been a much more interesting turn if the jump was a few years and included the boys training while Hyeon Ju carefully builds up a network again... Instead we had a ??? time jump with Him and Himbo just doing cold calls with their old allies in hopes that someone bites....
I need Dramafever to come back to kdramas don’t have to rely on Netflix to reach an international audience because come on...
EDIT:
NOT ME FINDING OUT THAT HYEON JU’S ACTRESS WAS ON TRIAL FOR A DUI AND THAT’S WHY THEY RANDOMLY CUT HER GIRL ???? UM ANYWAYS..... WATCH TALE OF THE NINE TAILED 1938 FOR THE FANTASY KDRAMA OF 2K23

i'm watching the untamed w a friend and i like it, and some of the rewriting (in particular the yin iron and making wwx's last cut for jin guangyao) is pretty good, but it really does take away most of wei wuxian's agency in the story? obviously he's the main character and the plot mostly centers around him or whatever but cql REALLY does not want him to make even a Single Bad Decision. demonic cultivator su she is the biggest example of this (let wei wuxian be responsible for jin zixuan's death 2k23) but also in, like, making demonic cultivation an existing branch of cultivation instead of wwx inventing it and completely getting rid of the members of the wen remnants who were able-bodied cultivators.
in the books wwx is literally losing his mind to the point where he definitely goes too far on multiple occasions (and sometimes seems to revel in it), and even though it's a result of the resentment corrupting his temperament it's still a choice wwx is making. present-day novel wwx looks back on his days as the yiling patriarch and admits to himself that he agrees with the people who go around saying "man that patriarch guy really crossed a line here and there." cql!wwx, however, has no need for that because it's like nothing he does comes with its own inherent consequences, which sort of takes away from the message of the book when everything is reduced to a black-and-white, good-is-always-good-and-evil-is-always-evil morality.
tl:dr: let cql!wwx have an actual impact on the story, COWARDS (read: cql writers)
