Half the side characters in #HospitalPlaylist have all become leads in some future drama, actually I think all of them 🤯 - Cinderella at 2AM - Brewing Love - Family By Choice - Dynamite Kiss - Head Over Heels Seems to be 2020s version of #TheHeirs when it comes to casting future leads. #KDrama

@dnkboston @AnnaAnthro One thing I genuinely LOVED about #TheHeirs was the second couple. Sadly underdeveloped but to this day my favourite Krystal romantic role. They were seroiusly cute together.

@AnnaAnthro Your thread showed up i newest to oldest, of course, so I LITERALLY said out loud, "wow, White Christmas!" when I saw this.👏

It made me wish I'd gone with something also showcased East Asian Dramas differently. If anyone sees your post and loves it as their very first #KDrama , pretty safe to say they may be , er, um, underwhelmed by #TheHeirs , Kim Woo Bin notwitshtanding

#Day21 A drama you will rewatch in the future
It's hard to pick because so many dramas are dear friends but there also so many I haven't yet seen! Dramas I did rewatch this year include:
#DoomAtYourService
#TheKingEternalMonarch
#TheHeirs
#UncontrollablyFond
#MrPlankton
I'd probably go back to any of them as well as #Healer
I may also rewatch
#MisterSunshine
#MyDearest

Day 10: Did you rewatch a drama in 2024?
I rang in the New Year rewatching #DoomAtYourService and it was nearly as great the second time around.
Also rewatched #UncontrollablyFond which has an annoyingly long revenge arc but that's worth it because #KimWooBin and #BaeSuzy are perfection.
I especially loved rewatching #TheHeirs now that I've had much more opportunity to watch the queens and kings in that series evolve into starts.

@whoosh
Yikes, that's a lot! I'm glad to be finished several of the currently airing shows for now. Of course, I didn't mention our high-speed joint rewatch of #TheHeirs, which you recently reviewed. I enjoyed the show a lot more the second time around. I have such appreciation for the talented actors in the show. I'm tempted to rewatch #TheKingEternalMonarch before long, another all-time favourite. In the meantime, I'm 2 episodes into #Vagabond with #BaeSuzy. Lots of action.

The Heirs (aka The Inheritors)
(2013 - 20 1:00 eps) REWATCH

A classic I 1st watched in early 2023. Knowledge of language & culture made it even better. The episodes flew by as the spoiled illegitimate 2nd son fell for the poor girl & had to fight to love her.

Phenomenal casting of 3 proven leads early in their careers & the supporting actors (see hashtags) who have all had stellar careers. A screenwriter with several other highly-rated dramas (The Glory, The King: EM, Goblin...) The 3 leads & the show won many awards.

It has a lot of wrist grabbing which was common at the time. But the depth that these young actors portrayed is astounding. Lots of character development & we come to understand their pain & the reasons for their actions. Excellent!

He's in several big ones, including #GuardianTheGreatAndLonelyGod aka #Goblin as well as #LegendOfTheBlueSea
#Pachinko
#TheHeirs
Some people feel that he always plays the same role, someone who is rich and spoiled. He is so terribly handsome that I'd watch him acting in anything!

@ronsboy67
Ah. With the exception of #TheHeirs, I don't think I've seen her in anything yet.
#kdrama

@EllenInEdmonton @s1m0n4 No trick there - Krystal Jung was in both #TheHeirs and #Player Season 1, but only had a brief setup cameo in episode 1 of Sseason 2. I really enjoyed her support role in #TheHeirs, she was part of a cute second couple that I enjoyed far more than the main pair. She also surprised me in Player 1 with how well she did in a main role, given my low opinion of her acting talent. 🙂

@EllenInEdmonton @ronsboy67 oh, damn! I fell for the trick 😂😂😂
In my defense I haven't watched #TheHeirs yet

#kdrama

@ronsboy67 @s1m0n4
There's no actor named Krystal in the cast list. I'm tempted to rewatch #TheHeirs because so many of those actors went on to bigger and better things. Still, high school shows are certainly not my favourite genre.

To say that Krystal is not the greatest actor in #KDrama is like saying that Mercury is not the largest planet in the solar system. BUT watching the beginning of #PlayerS2 confirms my belief that she shone in S1, her best role since #TheHeirs and I am still unsure about this second season without her 😢

#TheGlory #더글로리

The best revenge #kdrama ever. There are no boring episodes and it offers unexpected twists until the end! The screenwriter is #KimEunSook who also wrote #DescendantsOfTheSun #Goblin #TheHeirs ...

I gave it a 9.5/10 because the chemistry between the two leads felt a bit lacking. #SongHyeKyo gives me cold vibes when it comes to romance. She's brilliant in everything else.

Disclaimer: the first episode is the most violent and hard to watch imho.

@JillsJoy @ronsboy67
I watched E1 and sadly, it seems to have been filmed before LMH became as pretty as he is in more current series. Still, I just love to watch his face, even when the character he's playing is a total jerk! Just finished #TheKingEternalMonarch last night and watched #TheHeirs not too long ago.

Today is #KDramaDay! I want to recommend good introductory #kdramas available on different streaming services.

My favorite #kdrama available on #Tubi would be "The Heirs" aka "The Inheritors." #TheHeirs #TheInheritors

✅️ Classic trope-and-drama-filled drama, rich-boy-loves-poor-girl, today's A-list actors when they were 10 years younger. Kim Woo-bin is phenomenal.

🤑 A struggling poor teen girl somehow ends up as a transfer student to a school all the rich corporate heirs attend. Love, drama, power imbalances, and hijinks ensue.

@EllenInEdmonton @Missrdevine #LeeMinHo always plays the same character. He's the obsessive control-freak and jealous boyfriend, chaebol-rich, bossing everyone around him.

He was like that in #TheHeirs #TheLegendOfTheBlueSea and the few episodes I saw of #BoysOverFlowers

A good actor can play different roles convincingly

Final thoughts on the #kdrama #TheHeirs #TheInheritors:

I am amused that, at the end, they mentioned what they would be like 10 years from then, and it is now 10 years after the show aired. We need a real "Where Are They Now" revisit.

Kim Woo-bin: if I weren't already a fan, this show would've made me one. What a character arc!

Lee Min-ho: I can understand now why, after gushing to a friend how much I loved #TheKingEternalMonarch, she said she didn't like LMH because of his role in The Heirs. Not that he was a bad actor! No! Just his role is of a spoiled, jealous, violent, clueless, but handsome, teen. It *is* a role that could be defining if that's your first exposure to him.

Choi Jin-Hyuk: I am glad I got to see him in both #MrQueen and #KangchiTheBeginning already. He has such an iconic voice. But he is absolutely NOT 12 years older than LMH, by any stretch of the imagination.

I have Thoughts™️ about the different roles women played in this series and how they were portrayed. 🤔 Diverse! And yet...
