“Less Than Impressive Season 2”
Because I was utterly impressed with the screenplay of Lee Woo Jung, directing of Shin Won Ho, as well as the strong chemistry and camaraderie of the main cast in Season 1, I had high expectations for them to maintain the momentum, if not surpass it. But I was let down. Most of the scenes and lines that comprise Season 2 were repetitions and redundancies from the previous season such as the cute exchange of winks between father (Ik Jun) and son (Woo Ju), Ik Jun and Jun Wan wrestling like kids over some snacks, and Ik Jun hilariously reciting a subway recorded message to the annoyance of Seok Hyung, just to name a few. It’s like hearing the same old jokes which were funny the first time but had lost its comedic aspect when heard again for the second time. Another disappointment was the minimal exposure given to the endearing Woo Ju who captured many hearts in the first season. Why did the director and writer make us fall for the charming antics of this adorable wonder boy and then limit his scenes afterwards? And then there’s the dismal finale or episode 12. No impact, least efforts, anticlimactic. It was as if the writer had ran out of creative ideas, the director was no longer driven and the rest of the crew, fatigued. I don’t think the loose ends were purposely made to justify a Season 3. There was evidently no concerted effort in ending the popular series with a BANG.
