Strong Girl Namsoon

A bit too long, but entertaining for what it is. Lee Yoo Mi does a good job as a fish out of water in the beginning of the series, but when the series transform into more and more of a Korean character and less and less of a Mongolian character I feel like she loses some of her charm. There's no reason she has to cut her hair. A tragic loss. The rest of the cast which plays her family does a remarkable job, with the best possible combination of gravitas and over the top ridiculousness. One character who is always played deadly seriously is that o Ryu Shi-oh who is played brilliantly by Byeon Woo-seok. The villain story is really well written even if his demise is laughably bloodless. Not the best k-drama it's quite good.

It started out strong and I'm hoping it will get better as it continues. For me, there is too much focus on the mom. I feel like Namsoon is almost a side character by episode 6. I like the main actress, she is endearing as Nam Soon and I feel like there can be a good storyline with her and the cop, but they just get pushed aside for the mom. I'll watch it til the end but I hope the writing improves. If you are a fan of the original series, you may be disappointed. I feel like the original had a lot more humor and focus on Park Boyoung. There is a cameo that is fast but so enjoyable. I think this show is worth watching but I could change my mind by the end.

I enjoyed the orig. Strong Woman Do Bong-soon with Park Kyung-sik as the hapless ML to Park Bo-young's supernaturally strong heroine.

In the sequel series, I liked the FL and her raised in Mongolia innocence and the ML cop was okay but there were too many generations of strong women for me. Too many competing plot lines and heroines taking action to care enough about any in particular. More is not better here. And a heroine with no kryptonite weakness but the "do good or lose your powers" is meh unless it's used cleverly against her in a way different from the earlier series. But no.

The villain strikes poses, han d in pocket casual, than a sullen Gucci model. Byron was a model first and has not overcome his affectless demeanor here. I think he's better in later work. Here, he's a visually-striking nothing burger.

I've watched half and that's enough. DNF.

I really wish people would give more honest ratings, it is ruining IMDB. Certainly slapstick, campy and silly but it made me laugh a lot. Perhaps, it is a bit over the top and not to your liking but why give it a 1-3, is it really the worse movie ever? It is probably not as good as the first one but not 1-3 bad and to be honest more Kim Won-Hae is the reason that the 1st one was funnier. I actually almost did not watch it due to the IMDB rating but I am happy decided to watch it despite the low ratings. It seems IMDB specifically with Korea TV will have to be taken with a grain of salt or not used at all until they can figure out who to folter out these spurious numbers.

Different approach with the original Bong Soon, pretty good for a light watch, funny but a bit boring at the same time. This drama belong to fantasy comedy and a bit exaggerated i guess? If you are not a fan of unrealistic/silly drama you better skip this one.

I dont get why people are saying the female lead is a bad actress who cant act (Lee Yoo Mi) i think she really suit the character and deliver it really well, innocent Mongolian nomad girl with an accent, kinda childish, cute, innocent, and bubbly. The villain actor also doing a really great job with his acting skill and expression, you can really feel he is a total psycho.

Whats surprising is only a few people mentioning how bad the lead protagonist actor Ong Seong Woo is, from the very first episode i cant help but notice that his dialog, expression and body language is so stiff and unnatural (not a hater okay) this is my first time seeing his acting so im not sure how he did in other drama, i dont think he is a main lead level yet.
