If youâre talking about MDL ratings, then a 7.8 for just two episodes isnât bad at allâthe show has only just started. Have some patience. As for TV ratings, I donât think they matter much anymore, because the target audience mostly watches these dramas on their respective OTT platforms. Buzz-wise, the show is doing great
When I first watched Moon Sang-min in "Under the Queenâs Umbrella", I saw him as a young, promising actor. However, his acting in his follow-up dramas was honestly disappointing for me.
In this drama, though, he seems to be doing much better compared to his last two works. Iâm not sure how well heâll do in the upcoming episodes; especially once the soul-switch happensâbut so far, his acting hasnât made me want to drop the drama. So, fingers crossed đ€
Nam Ji-hyun, on the other hand, is solid as always đ She knows exactly what sheâs doing on screen and has a strong understanding of how to build and progress her character.
What youâre pointing out happens on almost every MDL page involving popular actors or dramas. So Iâm genuinely…
No one can tank a celebrityâs career through comments alone, maâamâif that were the case, no celebrity would have a career to begin with, yours, "Joey", includedâïž. That said, unnecessary hate and negativity should always be condemned. Personally, Iâd suggest staying out of this altogether.
If you do end up watching this drama (please do đ€) and genuinely enjoy it, the most constructive thing you can do is leave a good rating and an honest review.
And, letâs be realâthis comment section, or any other dramaâs comment section releasing in January (and itâs packed as hell), isnât going to calm down anytime soon. Not because of any one fandom, but because once these dramas air, multiple fandoms will jump in and bombard their opinionsâboth positive and negativeâhere, there, and everywhere. This has already started even before release. Thatâs unfortunately how it always goes, and no single person can stop it.
I can truly understand youđKHY is one of my top actress, but a significant amount of her fandom are extremely…
Oh pleaseâtoxicity isnât some one-sided phenomenon.Other actressesâ fans are openly nasty toward KHY, and the hostility from some of her co-starsâ fandoms is very much out in the open. Acting like only one side is guilty is⊠convenient.
BTW, We donât go around on other peopleâs pages dragging them. But that doesnât mean we wonât defend her in spaces meant to appreciate her and her workâespecially when haters and toxic fans of others camp here like leeches.
We condemn unnecessary hateâalways. But that stance only matters when applied equally. True fairness holds everyone accountable, not just one side.
As for you, I have seen your comments their tones and it makes it very clearâyouâre a hater disguised as a fan. So please save us (and yourself) some time and go engage in your faveâs space, whoever that is.
Jesus Christ, this comment sectiom is unhinged. It's like listenimg to 5 year olds scream at Mummy that their…
What youâre pointing out happens on almost every MDL page involving popular actors or dramas. So Iâm genuinely askingâdo you comment the same way across all those pages, or only here? Your wording suggests neutrality, which is why Iâm curious.
And since youâre condemning this behaviorâwhich I agree withâI hope to see the same stance from you on other pages as wellâïž, otherwise, it doesnât really serve a purpose.
Kim hye yoon is always delivering but it seems like her co leads are getting all the praise everytime people are…
Whatâs wrong with people? Having âfive projects lined up for release just in 2026, and many more in the futureââfrom which angle does that look underappreciated? Stop forcing this victim narrative on her. Cuz I am genuinely tired of that now.
Sorry to break this to you, but her co-leads were never praised for their acting skills , not even a single one they were just praised for their outer apperance nothing more than that. Though I do agree that they did received offers for more brand deals and that's for obvious reasons cuz their models and idols first then the name sake actors. Also hello "PATRIARCHY" fed by women audience (this is the saddest part).
Meanwhile, HyeYoon has received more offers for films and dramas precisely because sheâs an actor first. She didnât go around bragging about the number of projects she has with a downturned mouth; the Korean media itself made plenty of noise about her impressive project lineup. Thatâs because sheâs an actor trusted for her acting ability and star power to carry projects.
The thing is, everyone is successful in their own way, and everyone is doing great in their own life and careers. Just because she isnât posting on Instagram every third day, people assume sheâs doing nothingâLMAOđ€Łđ. Sheâs busy as hell; thatâs why she doesnât have time for all that.
So kindly stop pushing this narrative. If you genuinely wish her success, just say âI wish her all the luck and success for her upcoming projects and wish she keep leveling upâ Thatâs it. A simple line like that is more than enough. Thank you.
What do you even mean by âwithout anyoneâs helpâ? How are you so sure that other actresses are taking help…
Itâs not about fans; itâs about you haters (@LeeD298 that one belong to your group as well). Youâre the one who claimed she isnât getting scripts or offers, and my reply was simply to correct the misinformation you have in your head. Go type **âKim Hye-yoonâ** into Google or whatever search engine you use, learn a little about the person youâre commenting nonsense about here, and then make your statementsâbecause right now it just sounds foolish.
Itâs also clear that you donât know how to respect anyoneâs work, and continuing a conversation with someone like you is a waste of time. So do me a favor and donât show yourself on this page again. Kindly get lost.
And next time you go around commenting on other actorsâ pages, make sure to do a little research firstâotherwise, youâll just keep making a fool and a clown of yourself đ€
What do you even mean by âwithout anyoneâs helpâ? How are you so sure that other actresses are taking help…
Miss Little Hater, who exactly are you talking about when you say ânot getting scripts and offersâ? đ€Łđ Which rock are you living under? đ€Š
Kim Hye-yoon has five projects lined up for release in 2026â2027, with many more in the future. If this still doesnât register as getting scripts and massive offers, then your understanding of what a busy, in-demand actor looks like is seriously lacking. Ignorance and zero knowledge is not something to brag about, girl. đ€
I genuinely donât understand why haters never bother to research before talking nonsenseâonly to end up making complete clowns out of themselves, just like you did. đ€Ąđ
I don't know why everyone is hating on the VFX to be honest. When I saw the way it was done, it's exactly what's…
The criticism around the VFX and CGI largely comes from the "Netflix Original Tag". When Netflix backs a series, viewers naturally expect a higher level of production value, and that expectation isnât being met here. If this is the best VFX and CGI Netflix can offer for South Korean manhwa-based series, then expectations for future adaptations should honestly be kept lowâespecially for titles that demand large-scale action, complex power systems, and visually dense fantasy settings. The issue isnât the genre or the source material, but the clear disconnect between Netflixâs premium branding and what actually appears on screen.
That said, I too am personally fine with the series overall. I went in expecting dumb fun, and on that level it deliveredâsome entertaining moments, decent action, and a fairly watchable experience, even if the explanations and narrative depth were lacking.
I donât know how things will play out with KSH, but heâs literally going to completely overshadow her, no…
I just happened to come across this comment, and it sparked a thought I felt like sharingâinterpret it however you like.
Most Korean actors who are genuinely strong in terms of acting tend to come from the film industry and only occasionally step into dramaland. As a result, a large portion of the drama-watching audience has grown accustomed to seeing conventionally attractive but relatively limited actors on screen. When one of these actors takes on a slightly different genre or becomes part of a popular project, they are quickly labeled as âthe best actors out there,â which is honesty an exaggeration.
The acting standard in K-dramas has never been particularly high to begin with, but lately it seems to have dropped even further. Popularity is increasingly being mistaken for talent, and that distorted perception keeps lowering the bar instead of pushing it higher.
At this point, it feels like nothing more than noise marketing to generate hype. The same thing happened during Snowdropâs premiereâand that situation was far more severe, as it involved internal Korean politics. Even then, the show ultimately went on air (that so on a cable channel in korea). So thereâs really no reason this one wouldnât (this one is on OTT not even on Korean channels) especially when it has nothing to do with politics or war. If anything, Netflix would be more than happy to let this continue, since it keeps people engaged with the program and saves them a significant amount of marketing budget.
Youâre free to dislike the plot or find the storyline uninteresting of the dramaâ thatâs subjective. But claiming she has âno diversityâ as an actress is simply ignorant. Disliking a story is an opinion; denying an actorâs range despite clear evidence is just misinformation.
Kindly check your facts first; otherwise, you risk making a fool of yourself, as youâve done here đ€
I really love HyeYoon; she has never disappointed me in her character portrayals. Iâve watched Lomon before as well, and he is a promising actor. But I have serious doubts about the scriptwritersâtheir past work was just blah. And not just that, most of the cast is filled with newcomers too, so thereâs no added advantage of known faces in the industry, and on top of that, JanâFeb is packed as hell. Still, I am definitely seated for this for my girl HyeYoon. Letâs see how it plays out. Wishing them all the best. đđ«°
Why are people rating the drama based on how they fell about Baek A Jin and not the overall drama production?…
A single actor canât carry a showâs entire rating â a drama is evaluated on many factors, and acting is just one of them. An actorâs individual score reflects how well they played their character, whereas the showâs rating depends on the overall execution. So KYJ can absolutely deserve an 8 or 9 for her performance, but since viewers felt the drama itself had several issues, especially after episode 8, itâs fair for them to rate the series lower.
It was a pre-produced show â already filmed, edited, and submitted for broadcast â so the producers had no…
LMAO⊠if youâre comparing it to Scarlet Heart, then girl, that drama wasnât even sold to multiple OTTs in 2016. Once a pre-produced show is bought by several platforms before airing, changing the ending becomes impossible. If that basic logic is still flying over your head, thereâs no point wasting another second talking to someone this dense. Anyway, weâre done here. Take care, byeeee~ đâ
It was a pre-produced show â already filmed, edited, and submitted for broadcast â so the producers had no…
Iâm not sure if her story is overâ â well, thatâs your opinion. I wonât argue about it because mine is definitely different, so letâs just respect each otherâs views.
And in general, itâs very difficult to change or re-edit a pre-produced drama once itâs been sold to multiple OTT platforms because those buyers receive a fixed, final version. Any alteration would require new contracts, new subtitles, technical checks, and approvals â all of which are expensive and time-consuming. Thatâs why post-release changes are highly impractical and rarely happen.
In this drama, though, he seems to be doing much better compared to his last two works. Iâm not sure how well heâll do in the upcoming episodes; especially once the soul-switch happensâbut so far, his acting hasnât made me want to drop the drama. So, fingers crossed đ€

Before criticizing her choice of roles, it would help to do some basic research and actually look through her rĂ©sumĂ©. She has portrayed one of the widest ranges of characters among actresses in her age group â from deeply emotional and nuanced roles to comedic and psychologically complex performances â all consistently acknowledged by critics. Her major awards arenât for show; theyâre earned on merit.
