(MINI SERIES) Dead End Job - Very Interesting Premise Series Though Could Have Been Better in Certain Areas

When I found out about this series on Netflix, I thought it had an interesting premise. But it was released while I was busy with other things and went for holiday trip. So I only got the chance to see it two days ago after I returned home and finished it last night. OK why don't I get right to it then?

Brief Story Line

Byeon Hyeok-jun (Lee Jae-wook - The Imposible Heir, Dear Hongrang TV series etc) was a thirty something man who had tons of debt and no permanent job to pay for it. So when he accidentally found an advertisement for part-time job that paid more than the normal wage, Hyeok-jun was intrigued and applied for it. He met with the Agency Manager Mr. S (Lee Hee-joon - Handsome Guys, Karma mini series etc) who indeed gave him the job. Obviously there would be a catch and what started as seemingly simple job, turned out to be completely different from what he imagined. 

Godzilla Minus Zero - An Even Grander Sequel to the Already Amazing Original 2024 Movie

When I found out about this movie few weeks ago, I somehow thought it was the same as the one I saw in Netflix two years back. Not until I talk about it with my wife last week that I realized it was actually the sequel to that 2024 film. Obviously I wanted to see it in the cinema but it was released while we were on holiday. So upon our return on Thursday night, we immediately bought the tickets for yesterday's show. All right then, let us get straight with the movie.

Brief Story Line

Two years after the events in Godzilla Minus One, former Kamikase pilot Koichi Shikisima (Ryunosuke Kamiki - Suzume, Samurai Sensei TV series etc) was living happily with Noriko (Minami Hamabe - Ajin: Demi-Human, Shin Kamen Rider etc) and their adopted young girl Akiko (Sae Nagatani). Meanwhile their old friend scientist Kenji Noda (Hidetaka Yoshioka - The Hidden Blade, Kita no Kuni kara TV series etc) was appointed as the director of Large Scale Disaster Response Bureau leading team of scientists including very intelligent meterologist Makoto Aoyama (Masami Nagasawa - Masquarade Hotel, Before We Vanish etc).

(2026) The Intern - The Pretty Entertaining South Korean Remake of the Hugely Popular Hollywood Drama Comedy Movie

I have known about this movie for quite some time but when its trailer was shown few weeks ago, my wife was immediately interested and excited. The film was finally released in Indonesia on Friday, though both of us were unavailable then and were only able to see it yeterday. Without further ado, here's more on the movie.

Brief Story Line

Retired professional Kim Ki-ho (Choi Min-sik - Exhuma, Big Bad TV series etc) who was also a widow, started to feel lack of meaningful activity in his life. So when he saw the advertisement for a position of Senior Intern in a successful fashion startup company named Woo22, Ki-ho decided to give a try. To his luck, Ki-ho was accepted and placed under supervision of Choi Min-ah (Ryu Hye-young - Reply 1988 TV series, The Mayor etc) who reported directly to company's CEO and founder Lee Seon-woo (Han So-hee - Project Y, My Name mini series etc). Though a bit reluctant at first, Seon-woo accepted the advice from her partner/VP Young-hwan (Kim Jun-han - Revolver, Mad Concrete Dreams TV series etc) to just let Ki-ho be working without proper assignment.
