Man Crush Mondays Lee Jin Wook

Hi! It's Monday, so it's time to chat about my Man Crush! This week's MCM is Lee Jin Wook!

This tall glass of fresh water has been on my drama radar since the first year I started watching dramas.

Even though I didn't finish it, "I Need Romance 2" was the drama that I first laid my eyes on Mr. Lee. Ever since then, any new project he was in, I tried to watch.

The Three Musketeers was the first time I saw a full performance from Lee Jin Wook. He played the role of Crown Prince Sohyeon. This character was oozing charm and charisma! Not only did he have wit, but he was also incredibly kind. He was the kind of prince who wanted to be a good King. This drama was way too short, but the cast was impeccable, and the journey was amazing!

Nine: 9 Times Time Travel was one of the best drama's I've ever seen. The writing was brilliant. Park

Sun-Woo was such an enjoyable character to watch. It was such a clever script to watch. The chemistry between Jo Yoon-Hee and Lee Jin Wook was palpable. This drama had so many genres in one, and it made me want to go to Nepal! Grab a seat and eat popcorn because it's a wonderful ride!

The Time We Were Not In Love was a really cute drama. Choi Won is a lovely person. Seeing how smitten this man was over the female lead was endearing to watch. His story of unrequited love, abandonment, and loyalty was so pleasurable to

watch. This drama made me feel warm and fuzzy, but I don't think it was the greatest work. Still, I truly enjoyed it.





Goodbye Mr. Black, this drama was action packed! Cha Ji Won was a smooth military dude from a rich family with everything going for him. The death of his father changes everything, and the life that he once knew has disappeared. This drama was a simple pleasure for me. I can't say I was ever too invested but I liked
how everything turned out. Mix reviews withstanding, I liked how everything concluded.

Voice 2 is hands down the best drama I've ever seen Lee Jin Wook in. I fell in love with this drama so hard. I watched this with bated breath. Do Kang-Woo was the best thing to happen to this series. Go Watch This NOW! This drama was so smart. We go through the episodes trying to see if Do Kang-Woo is a psychopath. Each episode is intertwined beautifully. It left off on a cliffhanger... so I'm keeping my finger crossed for Voice 3.

Voice 2 Review

Okay! Last year I wrote how incredible Voice season 1 was. This year, I'm here to shout from the rooftop that season 2 is even better! The comment section lamented Jang Hyuk's non-appearance. I thought it would've been nice to see him as a guest, but I was confident that I could enjoy the show without his enigmatic performance. Why you ask? Because Lee Jin Wook plays the lead in season 2! Every drama I've watched with Lee Jin Wook has showcased his talent. I was ecstatic to see what he would do with this role.  I waited until I could binge watch the show, because season 2's are a bit risky, but this drama did not disappoint!

The Golden Time Team are rocked to the core, due to the cruel death of their captain. In order to find the murderer, they launch their own investigation and find another serial killer is loose and on a rampage. This season takes us on a ride with  Do Kang-Woo. He is a cop suspected of murdering his partner. Despite the open hostility he receives from his precinct, he continues to search for the real killer. Lee Jin Wook is exceptional in this role. Do Kang-Woo oozes barely contained rage and resentment, but he doesn't allow himself to be consumed by hate. Balancing the mistrust and ostracism of his peers, he is able to find the connection in the most heinous crimes. I loved this character. At the beginning of the drama, all we see is a brash, outcast trying to clear his name. By the end of the drama, we see Do Kang-Woo at his most vulnerable. The transformation, and the glimpses we see of his past make him all the more endearing to my heart.

Kang Kwon-Joo is set with new challenges as she tries to find another killer. This time the killer is aware of her sensitivity to sound and he manipulates her in the most chilling way. Lee Ha-Na still delivers a beautiful performance, and unlike the first season, I ship Do Kang-Woo and Kang Kwon-Joo. Their chemistry together was amazing.

The MVP of this season goes to Kwon Yool. I give this man a standing ovation. I've never seen him play a sinister role before. I've always loved him as the attractive second lead in romance drama's, but the execution of this role was sensational. Bang Se-Joo is the mastermind of a nefarious plan to mete out judgment and punishment to those he deems as lower than bugs. Though he causes lots of pain to innocent victims...I couldn't completely hate him. Certain crimes he committed didn't bother me the way they should, and I it's because, despite the obvious mental illness, he's relatable. I understood why he made the decisions that he made, given his background, and his corrupted mindset. He also was an intelligent criminal. There is nothing I enjoy more than a battle of wits.

Overall, Season 2 was an amazing ride and I couldn't recommend it enough!

Happy Drama Watching!
