The sister in law is suspicious. I hate her already!
That’s by design. She’s not supposed to be a good character :)

Because the hot guy (ML) is not rich, perhaps? He has status/prestige but no money. That’s where FL comes in…
Thank you for the more informative response :)
I’m not very familiar with other European royals, so British royals was my main frame of reference. The Royal Academy in the drama with its house system also feels very British (I’m tempted to make a reference to Hogwarts but obviously that system was in use before the books, lol).

I was simplifying things a bit based on pre-show information and the first two episodes:

— Royals have prestige but not rich
— Charbol are rich but no prestige
— Politicians have power (including over royals) but less prestige and less money (unless they are from a rich family).

If you just imagine that this is set in the UK, this is a completely realistic story. You have a rich FL who needs to marry into a prestigious family and then you have a ML from a prestigious family who needs to marry into a wealthy/powerful family.

She did her best to get his to reject any thoughts about the marriage (that was her goal).

Idk why I dont like this I usually like rich hot dude kdramas
Because the hot guy (ML) is not rich, perhaps? He has status/prestige but no money. That’s where FL comes in — she’s the rich person here. The monarchy as portrayed here is similar to British royal family. They aren’t poor, but they are also very, very far from being chaebol rich.

First two episodes were very good but you can always end until the end of the series and then check out full reviews.…
Have you started watching Veil of Shadows? That’s the next big thing after PoJ… but a happy ending is definitely not guaranteed 🫣🥺

I think there’s certainly a good deal of respect that he has for her. She’s not a spoiled chaebol heiress, but actually is a very capable person who doesn’t like the class system.

IU is definitely not dubbed. Her voice seems normal but I haven’t compared it that closely with prior dramas.

i only watched the 1st episode, the show doesnt seem that bad as some of you guys claim it be , nor that boring…
Ignore the haters. And, really, if a drama were super bad te rating would be much worse than 8.3. Usually new dramas get dragged down by haters even lower (sometimes 7.x) before slowly recovering.

I dont usually care about logic when I watch dramas but still how is the FL able to follow ML everywhere?? I mean…
ML doesn’t seem like a person who has security with him at all times. So FL figured out his favorite places (through her employee who contacted various people) and showed up there. She’s a chaebol so she has access to all the same private clubs / restaurants / etc. that he has access to.
Abd, of course, we have to remember it’s a romcom, so certain things we have to let slide (like the movie theater scene 🍿) 😁

after 2 episodes, I don't understand a single criticism towards this show , such a harmless, fun show this is…
Yeah, let’s ignore the haters. It’s a fun watch and “alternate timeline” isn’t even that outrageous — it’s basically British Royal Family in function.

I actually really enjoyed this—it’s been a while since I’ve genuinely looked forward to a new K-drama episode,…
IU is so nice in real life, it’s fun to see her play leads like this. And monarchy makes more sense than I thought — it’s basically how British royals are right now.

i like it but the intro and the heavy ads just 2 episodes in makes it a little corny ;/
Subway product placement is a fan service for Hotel del Luna fan, lol… They even made fun of it a bit when FL said the cafe (Subway) should’ve paid for PR :)

Royals don’t have anything to do except obsess over status, so she naturally wants her son to be viewed more favorably than anyone else. But, of course, it’s not reasonable to ask a little kid to handle all those ceremonial duties.

Same... MBC is frustrating for only dropping 2 episodes a week. I don't know how they view this as a strategic…
Two episodes per week is standard for K-dramas (10-16 episodes overall). There are some daily dramas that air more frequently and have 40-50 episodes, but those are usually less prestigious.

All this negative criticism against this drama takes me back to the "Legend of the Blue Sea" days. It…
Where’s all the hate — on IG/social media? Maybe I have those accounts blocked because I haven’t found too much when scrolling through the comments.
But, at this point, it’s inevitable that ANY drama will have haters coming out in droves. On MDL early on those haters/antis love to write fake reviews and give low ratings to try to reduce popularity. if viewership ratings are bad, they rejoice. If viewership ratings are good — haters claim it’s made up by platforms. It’s a small miracle Pursuit of Jade managed to maintain 9.2 rating for almost entire airing time until it dropped to 9.1 after last 10 episodes were leaked and comments/ratings were flooded with bots/haters/antis or people who watched episodes with horrible machine generated subtitles which made no sense

atp the love triangle has gotta be the most frustratingly overused yet never done well kdrama romcom trope
We’ll see how they deal with it. So far, 2ML is pretty nice and not annoying. But he has power over monarchy so he may decide to be bad. But, also, he’s friends with both of them so maybe he’ll step aside.
