Am I the only one who doesn't like Shin Jae or his background story? People here are raving over him but I don't…
I'm okay with deleting him from the drama. The only nice scene with him was very basic, at the beginning, when he's jealous of Lee Gon. Otherwise, he's a pain in the ass.
I found this article and this might be the perfect rebuttals to those negative comments and antis who criticize…
The author of the article forgot to say that when a drama is boring and confusing, you don't want to go looking for clues to understand what's going on. Even less when it is made artificially more complicated than it is, by a deliberately (or awkwardly) messy narrative. Too bad for the other qualities of drama, but it's prohibitive for the general public.
I half agree with your last paragraph about the romance. I can't make it make sense since I don't think we've…
At the beginning of Episode 10, Lee Gon and Tae Eul meet in the bamboo forest. And they are both very emotional. Tae Eul cries a lot. If I only watch this scene for what's in it, it's very good. Both actors are very convincing. Definitely a moving scene. I think I would have enjoyed it even more if there was a context behind it. I have difficulty knowing why she is crying at this point in the story, and when this scene takes place. And the beginning of the episode is quite mysterious and unsettling. I can't connect that to the story in general.
I still like the romance of that drama. Since it's a fast romance, it's not obvious to other viewers. Yet the IRIS drama has managed to establish a solid romance in only two episodes and just a few scenes, so maybe that's not the bottom line.
Spectators who don't like TKEM's romance often give quick reasons, such as the actors. I wonder if they're getting the wrong target, and ultimately the reasons why the romance doesn't work lies elsewhere, indirectly.
This drama is such a mess, I have an endless list of documented reasons for not enjoying so many things. It's just that I manage to separate the romance from the rest, so these other negatives don't have too much impact on it. Sentimental scenes being well done, I manage to hook in. But if you take the big picture and the romance is drowned in the rest, it's actually disappointing.
Lots of boring, incomprehensible scenes with tons of different situations and characters. You end up losing touch with the two main characters. Apart from the main sentimental scenes, the other scenes that help build the romance disappear from memory, swallowed up in a jumble of painful stuff, and you can't even remember what happened for all this.
I was so immersed in the product placements that I didn’t even see the drama.:-D
Rules of funny. That's the kind of stupidity that comes to mind without knowing why. I was inspired by the sentence in Niki's commentary (Thank you Niki). I didn't calculate the scope of the thing. After analysis, what's funny isn't just the inversion, or the idea that there's more product placement than drama. It's more the feeling of being immersed in product placement as if it's a more exciting story than the drama.
So if I interpret it correctly, The King did not lose money for Studio Dragon and Kim Eun Sook, because they were…
The guy's a megalomaniac. One screwed-up drama and he thinks the world is going to shake. The other producers will just laugh. They're gonna analyze everything that went wrong at TKEM, and the writers are gonna avoid that kind of nonsense. Which they're already doing on the whole.
I think there is too little time for everything in this drama. There's too little screen time to develop the romance…
If there's too little of one thing, there's too much of another. We'll have to wait until the end of the drama, but it will be easy to list all the characters and subplots that were useless and uninteresting. 40% of the content.
Excerpt from a good drama you MUST see: ---------------------------- A girl is with Woo Do Hwan. He turns around, ready to go. But suddenly, the girl sticks to his back and hugs him from behind. She puts her head against his back and cries for love. Meanwhile, Lee Min Ho is watching the scene. He is standing ten meters away at the other end of the street, helpless. Completely upset and hurt in the heart. ---------------------------- If you want to see this drama, read the comments on MDL. This drama is an incredible success, 5000 fans already.

It's just one more messy thing.
Sometimes I get better ideas, comedy and punchlines.
It's still better than Goblin's lines. :-)

More like rage-quit. Or taking care of its sanity. :-))
