I dropped Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo for so many reasons. First of all, I watched it long after it finished airing, and I've heard and read too many reviews and spoilers. Usually I do that for every story, but none of the elements I found in the spoilers kept me wanting to continue. Still, even if I didn't read any spoiler, I entire production itself was pretty much overrated for me. That show was pretty much trying to sell a reverse-harem kind of story with almost every single prince liking IU's role (Hae Soo) without any deep connection between every single character. The love story was so vague, and the main storyline of Lee Junki's character (Wang So) becoming the king was not cliche but sooooo not interesting. Nothing made much sense to me. I dropped it without regrets. I'm a huge fan of IU as a singer, but I disagree with her choice to star in this story. The only time I enjoyed her was in The Producers.
