Rugal (Korean series) looks very promising!

in CineTV4 years ago (edited)

Just finished the first two episodes of Rugal on Netflix, a Korean scifi/crime/action series that was recommended to me by the algorithm based on my previous watches. As a reminder, this is my third Korean tv series, the other two being Alice and Sisyphus.

And once again those damn Koreans keep impressing me! Very solid acting, interesting plot and very good filmography and special effects.

Now, I am either very lucky with the Korean stuff I have stumbled upon or the Koreans are simply great at this shit!

A thing I especially liked about Rugal, compared to Alice and Sisyphus, is that it puts way less emphasis on the drama and the romance and instead focuses more on the action. I really hopes it keeps going that way!

However, it also has less character building compared to the aforementioned shows, which was somewhat of a bummer. But this is just a personal taste.

Also it has less Korean hotties... At least for now :(

Anyways, I am off for my third episode. From what I have seen up to now it looks like a very promising watch!

If you like the genre you may want to give it a go.

My theory is that you mostly watch these movies for the Koreans hotties but don't want to admit it

Forgot to switch to my cine alt. Enjoy the free money 😂

Much appreciated :) but you can always un-vote it. I am eternally grateful even if you never vote any of my stuff ever again. I still remember the nice people that were upvoting me when I first started out on steem even though it has been almost 4 years since then and they are no longer active

korean movies never fail to impress. Boys over flowers will forever rank among one of my favourite TV shows. Am not as big on action as I am on romance, but its interesting to see that they can create excitement across genres

I think they are great at what they do and I will check the movie out

it's a series

Sure I know

They do have some tactful, innovative filmmakers like Park Chan-Wook (director of oldboy, joint security area), Kim Ki-Duk (Director of Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter... and Spring and 3-Iron ). There's also Bong Jun ho (Parasyte, Memories of Murder).

Koreans melodramas are also quite over the top, emotionally. Some would say cheesy abut sometimes thats all you want. ;)

I have not seen this series, thanks for the recommendation.

Those are some weird names I will never remember

they all sound like he's reading the menu from an Asian restaurant :P
