I agree that these controversies were unwelcome and unreasonable. The drama does have a slightly shocking patriotic side when it comes to taking revenge on Japan. This point should be recalled along with the accusations. Production errors that I don't think are that big. It's much less of a problem than general production. On the other hand, if viewers are disappointed by the confusion and the pace of the drama, it's logical and normal that they drop it. I was on the verge of doing that too.
There's not a lot of science involved. Still, I consider it more SF than Fantasy because of the spirit in which…
This is one of the most interesting and spectacular parts of the drama. The writer's work on it is amazing. However, she forgot to be so good at storytelling, unfortunately... If you want to have both together, look at W, which TKEM recycles a lot of ideas from. It's not necessarily good advice because you will be even more disappointed by TKEM after that. Especially when it comes to narration, pace, unpredictability and clarity.
This comment section is probably more entertaining than the drama lol. Also, are people actually calling this…
There's not a lot of science involved. Still, I consider it more SF than Fantasy because of the spirit in which it's done: everything is very logical in the drama. Even when sometimes you think the opposite. For the rest, see the other comments.
This is a mistake. Maybe it makes sense to give the impression of a non-linear chronology. But the problem is,…
It exudes a lack of confidence. As if the scenes during the first 20 minutes weren't good enough and you had to use them to wait until the resolution of the cliffhanger from the previous episode. However, during those first 20 minutes, there are some very good scenes, the drama starts well. But there are also some scattered scenes that are painful and kill the drama. I made the analysis of some sequences on another website. For once it was rendered in a clear and attractive way. Around 06:30, we see the king's procession. The drama could start here. Then to follow on the scene of Eun Sup at the hospital, then back to the search in the police station, then another interesting scene, then the resolution. This would have been done before 10:00 or even less. Starting with the scene of the motorcade immediately helps the audience to understand that it is in a flashback (or that the cliffhanger was a flashforward, you can see it any way you want). The drama prefers to avoid a few elementary narrative rules that allow the spectator to make a connection with the events, that's the mess it makes.
I kind of delayed watching since it was so bad SBS delayed an episode to air a movie released months ago...The…
The PM Koo's turnaround is not that sudden, but indeed it can give that impression. The necessary focus has not been made on this character and its evolution. Obviously, it was drowned out by tons of other situations and characters, often useless. If it had been done better, the PM Koo would have been at the center of more interesting conflict situations, and there would have been no doubt about her growing rage. It remains to be seen whether in the end, this character was really useful, given the way she ends up in Episode 13.
Then please ask them to stop with all their criticism of show, they are not warranted for such a great show, and…
Your posts are disastrous and would have made me want to run away from the drama. I don't need the gossip of a worshiper, and you don't even explain what's good about drama. You might not even know it. Just read those two comments you just wrote. What I'm doing on my side: the good and the bad parts. It gives a lot more opportunity to someone who is hesitant to watch the drama. It will be a confusing, boring, tiring, badly told drama in which the story doesn't move forward. At least people are warned and don't lose their nerves when they see the drama. There is also genius in the way to correlate clues and events, if you can get past the flaws. Sometimes good dialogue, good comedy, and better romance than what many people say. And of course, good acting. If the drama was any worse, I'd have dropped out by now.
I'm curious, am I the only one that doesn't like how KTEM after the end of each episode, rather than continue…
This is a mistake. Maybe it makes sense to give the impression of a non-linear chronology. But the problem is, it doesn't work. This is one of the many negatives of the narrative, which is particularly bad in general during episodes 1 to 10. The problem is that scattering scenes with meaning and clues doesn't mean making good scenes per se, even less so when the order and splitting also sabotages the follow-up of one or more storylines by an excess of broken situations with too many characters.
I don't care if it's a flop. It just annoys me that people are so desperate to prove that it's not a flop. I don't need it to be a flop to understand how badly it's done in some aspects. Goblin wasn't a flop, and this is the most boring drama I know.
I just finished episode 7 and the story is becoming rediculous. I don't know why but the female Prime Minister…
You are on the good way to go to the end ! Thanks for your feedback. At this point you get some good comedy scenes with Woo Do Hwan. It helps not dropping the drama.
What's wrong with this comment section? I'm looking for review stuffs to decide wether I want to continue this…
This comment section is like the drama, in a way. You want something, but you find confusion. Lot of thinking and hidden clues. You have to read it on meta level. Not the content, but the way the content is writed.
I could explain why this drama is good and also why it's bad at the same time. But I feel like I've done it a lot of times already. The main thing is that once you get through the first 10 episodes, which are somewhat more painful than thrilling, you can have a little more fun watching the following.
I really like actress Kim So Hyun, but her drama "Radio Romance" was bad.What should I do? I still like her drama?No,…
I guess even on a forum where there are only fans of an actor, it ends up bickering as much as in places where there are fans and anti-fans. It's just that there will always be people who are blamed for not having a high enough level of adoration. There's true fans and there's fans. Then it's the next level, there's true true fans and there's true fans. The war is endless.
On the other hand, if viewers are disappointed by the confusion and the pace of the drama, it's logical and normal that they drop it. I was on the verge of doing that too.

Again, he's going to fire two shots.

No, I don't.
