Dyllan Mykel, Kpopmap EditorWith the premiere of K-Drama, "The Impossible Heir", the cast are slowly making their rounds across various variety programs. Just recently, Lee JaeWook and Lee JunYoung made an appearance on "Salon Drip 2". When the pair first entered, Lee JaeWook said something that host Jang DoYeon wanted to hear "one more time".
She incorporated the Korean phrase, "다시 한번 얘기 해주세요", which in romanized form comes out to "dashi han beon yaegi hae juseyo". This translates to "Please say that again".
This is useful when you're at a restaurant and you want to hear what your server said once again. Or you're ordering from an aesthetic cafe and need to hear the specials for the day.

"The Impossible Heir" joins Disney+ and their ever-growing roster of impeccable K-Dramas. Here's why you should start watching it today!
Dyllan Mykel, Kpopmap EditorWhile Netflix might have been one of the first streaming platforms to produce their very own K-Dramas, Disney+ is slowly catching up. Once more they've added what seems to be yet another mind-blowingly gripping series, "The Impossible Heir". The show features such prominent names in Lee JaeWook and Lee JunYoung, with rising rookie, Hong SuZu. The drama has been amazing to watch so far and shows no signs of slowing down.
It follows the story Han TaeOh (Lee JaeWook), who has faced endless struggles in life. He partners with enemy turned childhood friend, Kang InHa (Lee JunYoung), who is the illegitimate son to the chairman of Kang Oh Group. Together, they hatch a plan to achieve unbelievable amounts of success. On their journey they meet similarly passionate Na HyeWon (Hong SuZu) who hopes to escape the dark clutches of her troubled past.
There's a tense vie for power, nail-biting suspense, and bits of tender romance sprouting forth from "The Impossible Heir". It's everything K-Drama enthusiasts could ask for and more. But in case you're still debating on whether or not to add this series to your roster of dramas, here's a few reasons why you absolutely should!
It should go without saying that Lee JaeWook and Lee JunYoung are incredible at what they do. They've shown time and time again that they're able to expertly digest every role and put out a performance worthy of all the love and praise. From "Alchemy Of Souls" to "Weak Hero Class 2", they've participated in wildly successful series that speak to their impeccable acting prowess.
Hong SuZu is no pushover either. She's participated in a vast number of CFs and despite having smaller roles in her previous dramas, showed tremendous promise. Then, right from the start of the Disney+ drama, she's more than proven that she's main lead material. Fans are understandably excited to witness Hong SuZu's growth throughout the duration of "The impossible Heir".
Han TaeOh and Kang InHa don't start off eye to eye. All signs lead to them being lifelong enemies, however, that all changes one night. They discover that they are kindred spirits, trying their best to survive. They quickly agree to a partnership, but develop a heartwarming bromance in the process. They way TaeOh and InHa joke around and silently support one another adds a layer of humanism and shows a sincere need for companionship.
While all three main characters might have grown up differently and are faced with their own separate hardships, they are all hungry underdogs. They seek to reach a level of undeniable success that won't let anyone disrespect them or cause them harm ever again.
As you learn more about their struggles and watch them overcome various obstacles, you'll naturally find yourself cheering the names of Han TaeOh, Kang InHa, and Na HyeWon. Although we've seen this scenario play out various times before, "The Impossible Heir" adds another perspective to the trope that has viewers everywhere eagerly awaiting the next episode.
As underdogs, nothing ever comes easy for our three main characters. But this might be something viewers look forward to. The slow, arduous rise to power will keep audiences at the edge of their seats. The three methodically pool all their ambition and desire to succeed into a complex plan that isn't necessarily guaranteed to work.
Despite that, they try anyways, determined to turn their dirt path to a royal road worth celebrating. Viewers are in for a nail-biting experience as all the events of "The Impossible Heir" continues to unfold.
