Misaeng on Netflix

One of my favorite shows of all time. Randomly popped up on Netflix and could not recommend it any faster.

I've been wanting to watch this!! Now that it's on Netflix maybe I'll finally get the motivation to start it, haha. Thanks for the heads up!

On a side note: has anyone watched Save Me? It just finished airing not that long ago and I'm curious if it's good; the premise sounds interesting.

G-Nitro · Nov 20, 2017

I haven't watched as many dramas as I wished this year, but finally watched Strong Woman Bong Soon on Netflix (Strong Girl there), and it is now one of my top 3 favorites. Park Bo Young was so good.

I've watched just over half of it. It's very good.

When I search it on netflix it only shows. "Titles related to: Strong Girl Bong-soon" ... It's clearly in the system, but not public (yet?).

The show has been available for a while on Netflix (At least in the American and Brazilian Netflix) watched it back in June, awesome show.

As someone who works for a trader, it was pretty fun catching a glimpse of what my counterparts do in Korea, even if it was mostly fiction/dramatized

Peru · Nov 20, 2017

Oh that Bae Doona drama Stronger is also on Netflix, time to watch it

EXID doing their part switch with "DDD"

I wasn't expecting them to completely re-record the vocals. Bless LE for going for those high notes! I'd love to see more groups do the full-on switch like this!

Oh the performance was great now doubt, it was a big milestone for Kpop in general I think. I was just saying to those who haven't heard Kpop before it was noticeable but whatever they still enjoyed the song and performance.I also notice a lot of the camera work on their peformance was shot like you would see on the SK music shows which I thought was pretty cool.

I always find it weird how when a Kpop artist comes and performs in NA it's a huge deal and yet NA artists perform there all the time like it's nothing so hopefully this opens more doors for the industry and since many Kpop artists have been branching out more recently worldwide it can only grow from here.

I think that has to do with the fact that the general American public is not used at all to non-English media (be it music, films, etc.). There's some tolerance for non-American productions as long as they're in English, but still the American market is very much US-centric, as you'd expect anyway. The rest of the world kinda adapts due to the US having such a big presence in media worldwide, but I'd say most Americans are used to only consume American media productions, or at the very least English-language productions.

hey guys, do you know what's the name of the song or artist that appears when they show the ingredients of the winning dish on Chef And My Fridge from netflix? (from the seasons shown in netflix because on my searches they show is so far ahead, dont even know the emcees hosting it now)

Thanks, but I need it for the german netflix.^^ The system probably sees it being available in the us store, that's why I can find the whole search term by looking for "bong".

Have you tried googling "Misaeng netflix germany"? (I know its a stupid question)

Korean dramas on netflix are usually available world wide at the same time.

Props to Shazam for figuring this out for me. Here you go!

The singer's name is Lim Seung Bu (임승부). He's an indie artist, so finding music from him isn't easy.

ResetEraIsTheBestEra · Nov 20, 2017

edit: thank you for artist name as well, dont know what the song is about but it has some nice vibe and i like it lol

Frankly, the big Korean entertainment companies grew complacent from their success from the last generation of performers who hit it big there. They used Psy's, SNSD's, and Wonder Girls' US appearances a few years ago to boast they made it in the US now, but they didn't really break through as US artists. Compare this to musicians like Rihanna, Sean Paul, Daddy Yankee, etc, etc.

They publish in iTunes and Spotify, yes, but clearly they can do so much more to cater to an international audience. Imagine the difference between these artists appearing infrequently in international Kpop festivals vs individual artists holding world tours at the scale musicians like Beyonce or Dua Lipa has them.

I can't agree more. My wife and I were talking about how this could've been Exo a couple years ago if they had kept it together, or even one of the YG groups if they weren't all mismanaged on some level/internally sabotaged by virtue of being on YG.

The last part is the most puzzling. YG should spend less time being awful to up and coming artists and more time figuring out how to properly promote his own agency's musical acts.

The Unit episode 2 (or 3 and 4, depends on how you are counting) is already subbed in the usual places.

Also, reminder that Mix9 (and YG) is not worth anyones time.

i keep hoping and checking one day someone will upload a high quality live version of this old Roora song from 96.
i have the actual oop CD. it was probably their least successful album and commercially forgotten but i love this song.

Maybe not succesful, but the fans are getting their lifes in that recording. Song sounds good despite the bad quality.

It's Sunday, so it is time for my weekly K-Pop MV compilation from the past week. K-Pop MVs You Should Be Watching – 11/18/17

29 Music Videos this week featuring Red Velvet, Koh NaYoung, ALi, Swings, Baek Z Young, Fly To The Sky, and more! Seriously a lot of good music this week from well known and lesser known artists.

Again, thanks for this. I love that weird Yaeji song.

Kalnet · Nov 21, 2017

A non-kpop friend of mine said the peekaboo mv looked a lil bit something like it came from The Addams Family show, so I did the next best thing I could do with minimal editing.

llehuty · Nov 21, 2017

·feist· · Nov 21, 2017

That 'You In Me' video must have been awkward to film.

KARD and Red Velvet are trendsetters in the nascent DeathPop/TropicalSlaughterhouse sub-genre.

Gabora · Nov 21, 2017

What a fantastic end of the year. Besides Twice, every comeback has delivered in spades.

Pedro · Nov 21, 2017

I love the melody in You In Me, it adds an energy very different to their past releases.
Their past lyrics dealt with loss, but I was not expecting how dark this MV got. I really want to see some behind the scenes recording, some of them must have been embarrassed filming that.

Trivia: "Apego" means "attachment" in Portuguese, that's the word shown on top of the motel.

roosters93 · Nov 21, 2017

Red Velvet only in the vid for a bit, but this is a new vid by a very stupid but funny korean youtube channel I watch.

One of my favorite shows of all time. Randomly popped up on Netflix and could not recommend it any faster.

yess Misaeng was so good. Refreshingly different from most other dramas I'd seen at the point. The ending was a bit meh for me though. I wonder how it compares to the comic it's based on.

Peru said:

I finished Stranger today. Great stuff. Great cast.
I realised the OST also has music from two of my favourite k-indie artists Oohyo and Richard Parkers. Will have to give it a listen.

Hey I'm a Twice fan! Nayeon and Momo for life!! I've liked all their singles until Signal. Likey isn't a bad song, but really didn't stick with me at all. I had no urge to listen to it at all for some reason.

Deleted member 9746 · Nov 21, 2017

Damn, KARD's song is so good. The MV took me by surprised, but I enjoyed it. Must've been funny to record that.

If I say TT is my favorite Twice song, will I get a third Momo gif?

Sorry just feel like posting Momo gifs. damn she is so pretty

Ginta · Nov 21, 2017

Can't say twicetagramm survived more than a week. Rollin' will stay in the playlist since it's the best song on the album, but did they really have much of presence a couple days after the comeback? The RV teasers alone had more hype than Likey. :p

ScopehJ said:

No need to be sorry, she's the official K-Pop ERA Twice queen after all.

We will probably get some dance versions soon, but this is also nice:

Well that KARD MV took a turn I wasn't expecting, haha. Song's great though, KARD always coming through with great stuff so far.

Ginta · Nov 21, 2017

Peek-A-Boo sang live on radio:

Love seeing Wendy be so healthy. Still crying over Seulgis bangs.

That's what they would call <sexy> version right?

Anybody seen the latest Running Man? Se jeong looked different somehow. Overworked from the comeback and other work or plastic surgery?

NameUser · Nov 21, 2017

That new KARD song is interesting. Not sure if I like it, but I'll still support them because we need more co-ed groups.

I don't understand why people keep saying it's the same concept? yes almost all their song have that KARD-like theme but that does not mean it's the same concept does it? if anything it's a trademark to whom they are as a group ^_^

LJKO · Nov 21, 2017

The Somin X BM shipping continues lol

SideMatt · Nov 21, 2017

I'm not completely sure how I feel about You & Me. Into You is such a great opener, but while most of the tracks are good, I don't think it's really what I wanted out of a new KARD EP.

MV was pretty great.

The Villainess was fun, Kim Ok-bin was great. There are some amazing parts of that movie, and also maybe one too many plot twists, a little too long, but some of the charm of it is how it suddenly throws stuff like a k-drama romance in there.

Cool, thanks. After Thirst the woman can do no wrong. Oddly I have the hardest time getting people to watch Thirst, even though its one of the most interesting vampire movies in the past 20 years.
