Reply series creators, you're amazing
Firstly it's pretty rare but I watched this series as it came out instead of bingeing it once it finished. It was so good I spent the first 5 weeks just re-watching the series again from the start, every week. So by the time I'd gotten to the end, I'd watched the first episode about 4 times. That is crazy. It also goes to show how amazing this show is. The creators are so conscious of everything they show us as an audience, they are continually thinking so far ahead. Even when I know that and try to think ahead they outsmart me.
There was never any doubt but I love the friendships between all the characters. Like how in the Reply series they'd spent their childhood growing up together, here they've spent their adult life growing up together. I love how they're all different but connected with each other. The side characters are engaging, different and full of personality. It's to the point where it feels like there's 20 main characters rather than there being side characters. There was so much character introduction, which is why I had to keep watching the first episodes, but it was amazingly integrated in. Every line builds the character and the following scenes. It's hard to keep up with consciously but when I watched it again I would spot cues to a scene in the next episode.
Chae Song-hwa is my new girl crush, I love how Jung Kyung-ho is basically replaying his playboy Prison Playbook character. He's even hotter in doctor form and I've never appreciated a tsundere character until now. Jo Jong-suk of course delivers flawlessly his comedic and familial sides. There's so much depth to everyone's characters, only a great cast like this could pull it off so well. How they may do it differently but they all have their brash sides, their friendship sides, their relational sides, their caring sides.
How can I forget the Playlist part to this show? You'd think it's out of place but actually it and the lyrics to the songs they are singing are what tie the show together. Pay attention to the lyrics, it can only make it better.
