One thing I have realized is that kdrama writers are writing storylines for dump people mostly. There are a lot…
Look at the Cdramas that went viral beyond the fandom. Hidden Love was very simple and didn't spend much time on workplace stuff like most modern cdramas do. Then there's POJ, which had political elements but they were presented in a much simpler way. Even then, you could still find people in the comments of every social media asking for explanations. The truth is, the general public doesn't really like overly complicated stories
I was really rooting for this underdog k-drama, a not your typical handsome actor and not an overly made-up actress…
It's not an underdog at all. I don't know why people are so eager to label everything as underrated or an underdog just to create this fantasy of something overcoming all odds and succeeding. Lim Ji Yeon's last drama was one of the highest rated shows of the year❗ and this one is backed by SBS and Netflix
It is my belief that Seori is both a reincarnation of Kang Shim and a soul-swapper as well.
I want to think that too but Seori feels so detached whenever she talks about Kang Shim, while Se Gye sounds like he's talking about himself, as if he actually remembers everything that happened between them afterward
So Cha Se Gye is the reincarnation of the Grand Prince but Kang Shim and Seori just share the same face with different souls?
Then the Grand Prince ended up with Kang Shim even though he had been in love with Seori the whole time and Seori treated the Grand Prince like some random guy, even though she was in love with Grand Prince and he's literally Cha Se gye's past self anyway😭
They could've just made Seori the reincarnation of Kang Shim
This kind of annoys me because in the novel he never does that. He asked her to be his girlfriend and he was patient…
No bro, why should he always be the patient one when she played him? I think him being a little mean at times actually makes the relationship feel more balanced. Otherwise, people will just end up blaming the FL because the ML is portrayed as endlessly considerate.
Prince Li might be the character I dislike the most but I don't like Ye Li's reasons for hating him. It would've felt more believable if she resented him for breaking off the engagement. The attack had nothing to do with him and he was just an orphaned child at the time. His survival mattered too. I don't see how she could hold that against him
people nitpicking the dumbest things like “too much red” like what..??😭😭
The excessive use of red makes the drama feel artificial. There's a difference between using a color as part of a visual theme and saturating almost every frame with it. It starts to feel forced rather than intentional. It lacks a human touch and ends up feeling more focused on style and aesthetics than creating a believable world.
I thought we had left these kinds of plots to vertical dramas. They’ll just make it politics focused and fans will say it's for insightful audience, when at its core it’s the most basic short drama storyline
Sometimes Seori’s tone and body language make her seem like a grandma. I know she’s from the past but she…
This isn’t new. Lim Ji yeon, no matter how good she was in The Glory, was really bad in her rom-com with LJJ. She had the same grumpy expression throughout the entire show.
In this drama, she is good but I also agree with your point. I know many people have noticed it but they won’t say it and instead make excuses for that kind of acting
This might not be for me. I haven’t watched many episodes but the comments about both leads having multiple exes and the comedy fading already put me off. I was already turned off by the SFL being desperate for a married man. Dropping this
im pretty sure the only SOMEWHAT happy ending (but this is HIGHLY debatable) is when life gives you tangerines
That felt more like a bittersweet ending. Now I’m worried about PC’s ending too. If it ends on a sad note, it’ll feel forced and the rewatch value will definitely decrease
Is the ex girlfriend part necessary to the plot? Are they actually keeping her character in the drama as his ex? I kind of wish they had changed or revised that part.
but tbh her behaviour was embarrassing
Then the Grand Prince ended up with Kang Shim even though he had been in love with Seori the whole time and Seori treated the Grand Prince like some random guy, even though she was in love with Grand Prince and he's literally Cha Se gye's past self anyway😭
