I was trying my best to push through the finished line, no matter what. However by episode 21, Ning Yi’s extended captivity (with that unconvincing little-girl-bandit-commander) segment seems utterly useless, irrelevant and boring as hell... to an otherwise, smart and amusing original storyline.
*Sorry Guo Qi Lin, this is where I pause. Halfway through, this interesting storyline has become as dull as ditchwater. PS: They should have given Ning Yi’s master more screen-times. She is the most interesting female character in this whole satire.
It is funny that you say that because I couldn't get into JOL or Tiger and Rose, I dropped both. I find this one…
Interesting... I am an avid fan of Nirvana in Fire 1 so it goes without saying... That I also love Joy of Life 1. When it comes to intelligent writing, great intrigues, intricate strategies and wonderful cast... That is exactly my cup of tea.
On the other hand, I dropped The Romance of Tiger and Rose. As a parody, it took top marks for its exaggerated ridiculousness. As for myself, I believe in fair equality between couples. I hate when either side acts as bigots.
I find My Heroic Husband rather interesting to watch because it is a hybrid of the two. Also because both parties are fighting for equality and representation with a substantial layer of satire.
This drama is a crossbreed between Joy Of Life and The Romance of Tiger and Rose... Ning Yi (in Guo Qilin’s physical form) is the copycat character of Fan Xian from Joy Of Life who ended up marrying into a patriarchal household that views a man-concubine as a lesser citizen, like the Han Shuo’s character from The Romance of Tiger and Rose. Nonetheless, I love that the character, Ning Yi, kept his modern savoir-faire, his wits, his intelligence and his boxing skills after his transmigration.
This is an interesting drama. Indeed, it has the usual stupid family rivalries and the unrequited love clichés... However, it is an intelligent semi-comical fluffy pseudo-historical cdrama. Well... That was a mouthful. I was wondering why do I feel this production has a similar intelligent vibe as Joy Of Life? It is because Joy Of Life and My Heroic Husband have the same producer, Cao Hua Yi.
Among all Cho Seung-Woo’s projects... Horse Doctor is my favorite. Then again, I love medicine. It is a medical Sageuk; you might like it. PS: The actress who played the FL; on the other hand, you might not like.
I still think that the Sigma mastermind dude from the future is in fact Sun. Sun always had an affinity for gambling;…
Yes, These are simply speculations. We have to wait and see... Me, I am more interested with the first individual who made the first journey successfully back into the past.
I still think that the Sigma mastermind dude from the future is in fact Sun. Sun always had an affinity for gambling;…
It is really a matter of personal prospective... I find Sun irritating and obnoxious.
If the Sigma dude is really Sun; then, there must be many more factors that came into play... For him to turn into that coldhearted future self. - Unrequited love - Envying Tae Sul for his intelligence and his success - Greed for power - I ruled out family death because why would he still want for the uploader to be built if this will cause a nuclear war, as a result.
Hm. Back to square one as regard Sigma though I still entirely rule out a relation (direct or indirect) with Sun.…
I still think that the Sigma mastermind dude from the future is in fact Sun. Sun always had an affinity for gambling; hence, his first Lottery winnings with Seo-Hae’s help. Sigma dude came back with an awful lot of gambling tips and successful stock-market prospects from the future.
The usual DramaLand’s cliché... An obnoxious young punk (Sun) who is acting unbridled and cocky for no valid reasons.
It is nice to see Park Shin-Hye so active and so dynamic in her action scenes. This character, Gang Seo-Hae, fits her well. As for Cho Seung-Woo, I have not seen him that unrestrained and that uninhibited with his character, since Horse Doctor.
Does this make me an awful human being if I don’t feel absolutely nothing, anything for Gu Reum dying...? Starting from episode 7 and 8, she simply became a female lead character full of total nonsense to me.
I just feel sad for their new-born baby. - Secretly hidden... - Raised by strangers who would never understand her powers nor would know how to contain them... - With a dead biological mother... - And with a biological father who has turned into a Sith Lord... *That kid is going to need numerous therapy sessions with Charles Xavier, aka Professor X.
Yes, this was how the first original X-Men were created... In South Korea. PS: If they do venture into a second season (Good grief, NO), Lee Son will return alive because the man is apparently immortal.
However by episode 21, Ning Yi’s extended captivity (with that unconvincing little-girl-bandit-commander) segment seems utterly useless, irrelevant and boring as hell... to an otherwise, smart and amusing original storyline.

It is because Joy Of Life and My Heroic Husband have the same producer, Cao Hua Yi.
However, it is interesting to see some of the root-creations for our modern medical fields (Fictional or not).
I am not sure if it is Eddie, either.
Eddie seems to me to be the usual opportunistic push-over.
Well, IDK...
All of the senseless killings and fightings turned the tragedy in that drama into a comical parody.
Horse Doctor is my favorite.

But a cool idiot savant:)

So far, interesting storyline.
Sorry about that.
Sorry about that.
“Dude...” Lol

That will definitely be a push...
