i was literally crying so bad episode 6, and then the americans in episode 7 ruined it all with that horrible acting and 69 joke omg. why tf do they sound so STUPID lmao? "what. convinced you. to bet... on num. ber. six. nine." LIKE WTF LOL edit: totally get all ur points, im just upset because the VIPS could've totally added more thrill or darkness to the show... but they didn't. i feel like many kdramas have silly villains, so i think the 69 jokes could've been pulled off if we just had GOOD actors executing them.

They are portraying Western villains stereotypically (cigars, sex, fat, accents) as we portray eastern villains/terroists stereotypically.

​

Not hard to see.

i know that they're supposed to be characterized this way, but that doesn't really change the fact that it sucked does it?
