I watched As a result of That is my First Life due to Jung So-Min and guess what, I found Lee Min-Ki and his calm uncommon manner of appearing. Dramabeans has an article about him which describes him very nicely, he’s “not the flower boy”, “nor the boy subsequent door ” type of seems, as a substitute he’s obtained this “tough and edgy” really feel about him. (Be aware: am quoting adjectives from the article that’s already so on-point about him and I so very a lot agree with.)
Within the drama As a result of That is my First Life (2017), Lee Min-Ki as Nam Se-Hee was appearing aloof and being a person who may be very centered on his personal life objectives – e.g. paying up his home mortgage, taking good care of his cat and going dwelling as a substitute of mingling along with his colleagues. As a result of he’s so centered on his objectives, he needed to obtain his objectives on the expense of his social life, thus he turned considerably anti-social and aloof. The character known as for it and he gave his efficiency very nicely. One thing to name out too, this drama was Lee Min-Ki’s return to the small display screen in ten years, earlier than that, he was very a lot centered on the large display screen, making films more often than not. And I don’t do films on a regular basis, simply not that into it.
Subsequent I watched is Magnificence Inside (2018) starring Search engine optimization Hyun-Jin and Lee Min-Ki, and the drama is about Search engine optimization Hyun-Jin as Han Se-Gye, a high actress who will rework her bodily form to another person for every week each month. Curiously, Lee Min-Ki as Search engine optimization Do-Jae has face blindness after an accident and that is good for each of them as he doesn’t want Han Se-Gye’s face to “recognise” her. Search engine optimization Hyun-Jin, as common, is on the high of her recreation, she acts so nicely and shows the feelings so intricately. Lee Min-Ki might be at his most handsomeness on this drama, carrying fits, bathe scenes (random moments) and simply appearing his calm uncommon manner.
Behind Your Contact (2023) is Lee Min-Ki’s most up-to-date drama, a comedy-thriller at its finest. I used to be so hooked on discovering out who the serial killer is, as a result of it simply retains you guessing on a regular basis, everyone seems to be a suspect like actually anybody may very well be the killer. Lee Min-Ki is the detective who wanted Han Ji-Min’s assist as she might see individuals and animals’ previous when touching their bottoms. Each of them are so humorous and a number of the scenes might be hilarious. Extremely advisable actually. And a bit of bit about Lee Min-Ki since this submit is for him – he veers away from his calm appearing, exhibiting off his comedy chops and likewise a good bit of motion scenes with the combating off thugs. I used to be additionally hoping for extra “connection” between his character Moon Jang-yeol and Han Ji-Min’s Bong Ye-bun however the writers remained true to the drama’s comedy tone.
I’m presently giving The Liberation Notes (2022) a attempt to failing miserably.
Alright, that’s all I’ve to say.
