Yeah thats why I was asking bc I saw koalas. But as far as I know we were never told what it was initially, 16 or 20? I'll try finding the article. I can reluctantly handle 20 but 24!?

Sigh... I know right... Since I can't read korean... Finding for a korean source is...  :._.:  :._.:  :._.:

Hopefully we can get a confirmation soon.. 24 episodes is really quite absurd...

Thank god the extension in episodes isn't confirmed yet...

Haha... The mob boss is actually very cute... I love his interactions with our male lead... 

Love Cynthia this episode... When she rips off her skirt and start fighting then finally firing the gun... I'm like "you go girl!"... 

 

Just a personal thought here... 

After this episode, it reminds me of my experience watching My Love from the Star...

Both achieve high ratings despite the million obvious plot holes in both the stories...

Both have an ability to engage with viewers and keep viewers with them with cliffhangers despite all the ridiculousness in their stories...

My Love from the Star is called overrated because the story line isn't the best but achieved such ratings and received much international love... I can see Yong Pal being called overrated in contrast to its rating at one point too...

I know its too early too judge but I hope Yong Pal can deliver us an interesting drama at the end of the day...

 

A quite dead thread... :rlytearpls: I know drama watchers are more generally at soompi forums... haha...

Thanks for the links guys...

 

Cynthia and nurse which I both grew to like are leaving...  :unsure:

 

And yeah I find Stephanie's acting to be awkward but for her fighting in ep 6 I will miss her...

How could you :cry:  I prefer Taehyun with her than with Yeojin :derp:

 

It's left gangsta Doochul as my fave now :._.:  my only and last OTP with Taehyunnie :rlytearpls:

 

 

OMG you too! So, it's just me then who like her since day 1 :._.:

A lot of people like her since her first appearance... Character wise she is very cool but I just couldn't get into her in the beginning... Her acting isn't bad but i feel uncomfortable sometimes... Well shes just a rookie though... But hey she took time to grow on me (esp last ep  :meow:)... 

I agree... #Doochulandtaehyunship  :hehe:

Nurse Hwang is more like her obsessed and creepy doll owner...  :omg:

 

Nah there's a lot of people who liked her since episode 1. ^^ Sometimes I laughed at the random english (albeit perfectly pronounced english) but she was a cool character. I just hope they don't make her character die or something. :cry:

Most probably fired off? Since her cover is blown now... Can she still stay in the hospital?

The way Cynthia just leaves like that makes me feel idk a bit unsatisfied? 

 

I agree there should be a backstory about Nurse Hwang, seeing the photograph of how she seems to know Yeojin already before Yeojin is put into this sleep...

 

Lmao just when I thought this show can't get more ridiculous, ep7 comes out...

This weeks episodes has slower pacing story line wise but a very rushed love line(?) (I am really not a fan of this two episodes)... Hopefully to set up for whats going to come next week...

 

Edit: 

Ratings, Thursday 27/8/2015
Yongpal 20,5%
Scholar who walks the night 6,8%
Assembly 5,6%

Did you guys hear? Yong Pal got accused of plagiarism. :cry: :omg: :._.:

I saw it on nb... Since I haven't read the comic I can't judge... Sighsss... I somewhat agree with what the k nets say though... The scriptwriter is trying really hard to change the storyline in ep 7 and ep 8... Its seems like a different premise from ep 1 to ep 6... Anyway mess... Sigh...

Edit: So I read there were talks to remake the comic into a tv series with rib breaker back in 2013?

Opus +1!

 

Ofc I've only watched 7 raw and have yet to watch 8. I'll FINALLY have time tonight. I know the general jist of 8 but I do think we should give the writer another week to see how we'll fare. This week seems like setup for what's to come.

 

On a side note, Yongpal will be helping a woman give birth as yongpal not taehyun. So now we know we'll still have the moonlighting. Yesss!

Such great news!!!  :rlytearpls:  :rlytearpls:  :rlytearpls:

Ep 1 to ep 6 was so good though... Maybe I was expecting too much... :._.:

I was neutral towards ep 7 and ep 8...

After ep 9, its like :unimpressed: :unimpressed: :unimpressed:

Despite the things that didn't make any sense and definitely won't happen in real life in the first 6 episodes, it was so good whether plot wise and character development wise...

I was still hoping after watching ep 7 and ep 8, there is still a chance for saving but now...

Now the romance is even more rushed and the plot is losing its way even more after ep 9...

I disagree. I'll save my thoughts on these episodes for after tonight's one, but one think I'm sure of, and I'll repeat it for a thousandth time is that their romance is NOT RUSHED. I'll explain it later though.

Honestly I adore episode 9, and I have a feeling that this episode may be the last of Yeojin and Taehyun together that we'll see for quiet a bit. And I think that this is truly an opportuinity for a writer to develop their characters separately, for badass Yeojin and jackass Taehyun we wait.

Yeah, I'll write about all this tomorrow. For now have this as a message to all the haters: bscap4288.jpg

 

:hurr: , actually all of Han Dojoon is so memeworthy.

Its just a differing opinion... Yes background wise, they seem have a good reason to fall in love with each other... But development wise, its too fast? I feel forced... Yes I like fast paced stuff but this relationship is too fast for me... That's just my opinion too... Lets just agree to disagree... 

I won't give up on it yet, I am not the kind to give up on dramas halfway except that it turns really unbearable for me...

 

P.s. I hope I am not the hater you are talking about... Just because an opinion is differing doesn't mean a person is hating... Its just an opinion, no one is right and no one is wrong... Sorry if i misunderstood... That meme was good though...

oh my, no no, you're not the hater, I didn't mean to offend you, sorry if I did :rlytearpls:  this meme is just so priceless and anyway I smell a lot of hating after this week's episode so I just got you, guys, Yongpal fans, a weapon to attack these haters haha

No it didn't... My English isn't really good so I just asked... Sorry for the misunderstanding...

His expression on the meme was really good though... haha  :hurr:

I actually just read at soompi forums after this post that there are haters on dcgall(?)... I'm like even dramas have haters? Wow... This is actually the first time I hear drama haters even though I had watched k dramas for quite a while...   :._.:

Even if we have differing opinions, I am looking forward to your post... Its always nice to see people with differing opinions...

Seems like this week's episodes are good! I haven't watch it. But I am quite excited for it. 

Btw, SBS stop blocking your BTS. asdfghjkl  :>_>:  :>_>:  :>_>:

 

I loved loved loved this episode. That cliffhanger tho, I'm already dying :cry:

 

Also I'm kinda surprised SBS let the writer keep his original idea about this drama. Don't get me wrong, I'm normally against extending dramas with a good pace, but in this case I think there's enough material for 18 or even 20 episodes.

I'm neither for nor against, just surprised since we're so used to SBS being greedy.

Thankfully, the next drama looks exactly as promising so I have something to wipe off my tears after the next two weeks. And my another fave is in the Village, so I'm looking forward to it. :ahmagah:

 

Also this BTS:

 

 

 

Had it not been for Rain, I'd ship them tbh. Joo Won is like a baby seeking the attention of his noona, and Tae Hee held his hand or arm so many times in these 3 minutes I lost count. (excluding the filming ofc). :rlytearpls:

So adorable, I will certainly miss YongPal. :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Sorry, but any other bts links?  :rlytearpls:  :rlytearpls:  :rlytearpls:

Edit: Thank you for 16 episodes. I almost fainted when I saw 24 eps on wiki.

Edit2: Its ok. I found a way to watch. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Woots episodes this week isn't bad. 

I wonder if Yeo Jin will stop her revenge when she realizes she is one of the main reasons that Tae hyun's mom died. Tae hyun really forgives people very easily. I really like how he never went all out angry for revenge at Chief Lee for not saving his mother and when Chief Lee feels that it is his own fault for not saving Tae Hyun's mom. He even worried and try to save Chief Lee at the end off the episode by trying to explain things to Yeo Jin. He also never wanted revenge against Yeo Jin even if his mom died indirectly because of her as all the surgeons are on standby for Yeo Jin. 

His new security guard(?) is really cute when he was chasing the dog. It brought a smile to my face.

  • 2 weeks later...

Yong Pal ended!  :rlytearpls:

Despite all of the illogical stuff during ep 1 to ep 6, it was so good for me.

At ep 7 thinks started going down,. It did recover later on but it was still a let down from ep 1 to ep 6 for me.

It was still a great journey watching Yong pal. But will watch it again? Maybe only the first 6 episodes.

Thank you to everyone on this thread!  :chu:

 

P.s Can someone suggest me any new dramas worth watching?

Twenty Again with Choi Ji Woo and Lee Sang Yoon, definitely the best drama airing currently. Recently, I've even found myself waiting for it more than I've waited for Yongpal. Brilliant cast, brilliant plot, brilliant characters and brilliant development.

I wasn't crazy about after the first four episodes, but now it's my favourite drama of the year so far.

Thanks for the recommendation. I will check it out!
