“When Life gives life” of Netflix has fascinated spectators with his wide multignerational history, but fans have noticed a significant drop in the time of the Park Bo-Gum screen while the series moves to its subsequent episodes.
A change of attention as the story advances
The third act of “When Life DÃ Taderines” (episodes 9-12), published on March 21, focuses on the older years of AE-SOON (Moon So -ri) and Gwan-Sik (Park Hae-Joon), together with his daughter Geum-Myeong (IU). The drama, which follows the four seasons of life, originally played by IU and Park Bo-Gum as younger versions of AE-SOON and GWAN-SIK, attracting the great attention to their performances.
The series gained momentum after its first act, with the second act in second place in the 10 best charts of Netflix’s Non -British series. However, while the story goes down to the following years of the characters, the presence of Park Bo-Gum has decreased drastically, making the spectators feel disappointed.
Park Bo-Gum’s “disappearance” in act 3
While the story moves towards its conclusion, the narrative moves naturally from the younger versions of the older versions. While IU continues to play a central role playing both the young Ae-Soon and her daughter Geum -myg, the absence of Park Bo-Gum becomes even more evident. Unlike IU, whose time on the screen is supported through a second role, the character of Park Bo-Gum only appears in limited flashback scenes, with almost no presence in act 3.
By adding the latest episodes to the disappointment, they introduce a new romantic plot for Geum -myg and his boyfriend Young-Bum (Lee Jun-Young), while the spoilers suggest that the eventual husband of Geum -myg will be another new character.
Was Park Bo-Gum just the advantage for the first half?
Given its reduced presence in the second half of the drama, some fans claim that Park Bo-Gum was actually the male advantage only for the first act and part of the second act. His role was overshadowed by Lee Jun-Young and even by the guest star Kim Seon-Ho, making his short-lived initial fame feel.
With only a few remaining episodes, the spectators are anxious to see if Park Bo-Gum will return with a moment of impact in the last chapters of history. Will the drama give its character a significant conclusion or will fans remain to be desired more?
