positive · AI labelView post →We were in China, wife was sick of the Chinese programming, she wanted her kdrama. I didn't have any series but the movie Extreme Job. Paired my phone with the hotel TV and got it screening. Took some time to figure out the quirks. Subtitles didn't work. Yeah, jellyfin and tailscale for the win.

Typical rom-com and a few tropes: disapproving in-laws, amnesia and the white van of doom. Loved it 😆 #ExtremeJob with many recognizable drama and cinema faces including Oh Jung Se. Police comedy.
