just wanna comment about the character Kim Bong Goo/John Mayer played by Yoon Je Msoon… i wonder why is it that the bad/negative character is always – at least so far that i have seen – played by someone not so easy on the eyes..???? it seems it does not do justice to people who happen to be not blessed by good looks.(good looks are actually something given when you were born, unless you manipulate it with surgery). it seems they have to “suffer” more, first they are not blessed with good looks, then “judged” by society by always being “casted” as the bad guys/girls in films/movies. in reality, there are many beautiful people, man and woman, whose characters are so shady even evil… e.g. the drug “mafia-o-ness” – lady who heads drug mafia somewhere, women are killers or beautiful men who did horrible things…etc…not to mention that often (in daily life) people who are beautiful are so self-conscious and vain that they often behave so self-centered…. i propose, for a change, cast the bad guy with beautiful people and v.v….

ps: a devil sometimes is portrayed as a seductive, very beautiful prince or princess ..isn’t it ?- handsome dark prince who is so captivating that almost no one could reject/say no to…
