I'm dying to watch a Song weilong drama😭🩷 I like him a lot but I can't finish a drama just for the cast anymore i need to like the genre and plot too. That's why I last saw him in go ahead after that nothing looked interesting. Looking forward to this and shine on me. Let's see which one airs first
"women are women's worst enemies" That's bullshit. That's just another way society shifts the blame back on women instead of addressing the system that pits women against each other.
Take for example the concubines of a king planning and plotting against each other. Do you think they do all that out of some natural hatred for women? No, they do it because they are trapped in a system where their survival and security depend on how much power do they have ultimately competing for a man's approval. The real enemy aren't women its the structure that forces them into rivalry!
yeah I saw those comments and quickly blocked them. Sigh.
So you don't have any problem with what has been shown in this drama but with the term "feminism" being used for equality in general? Did I understand that right?
Then you'll need to know the origin of the word (fun fact: If you do a little reasearch on etymology of this word you'll know it was actually first used for men). Feminism was used for group of movements and ideologies that emerged in 18th century. This word was used instead of equality because it was primarily focused on fixing the unfair treatment women were facing at that time ( and still are). End goal is same that is equality for everyone but the word FEMINISM acknowledges the denial of rights, unfair treatment that women have been facing, how the ways of the world have had negative consequences on the progress and development of women just like how years of exploitation under colonialism pushed back the development of many countries. That's why till this date the word feminism is used to promote equality between the sexes .

I don't know why so many people equate Feminism with the idea of superiority of women over men. This is really disturbing. Feminism in most simple terms just means EQUALITY of the sexes.
People should really first learn the actual meaning of the term FEMINIST before throwing it around carelessly. It's funny how they conveniently overlook scenes where women are portrayed as villain but the moment when men do the same and they are given the taste of their own medicine they start spewing "this is feminist" bullshit. The meaning of feminist is so twisted in some people's dictionary as if being feminist is something one needs to be ashamed of.
Also.... the cuts are way too abrupt. It feels like just to give everyone some screentime they keep jumping from one character's scene to another which kills any tension or momentum that couldve been built up. Tbh you shouldn't go for such a big lineup if you can't provide proper screentime and background for each character. If things keep going like this Im sure future episodes will be filled with plot holes because of weak world building and lack of solid backstory.
Why arent they explaining anything?? I had no idea what that high priest the one who awakened ogwi was even talking about. They could have at least added a small caption at the bottom left for the characters he mentioned with PHS. I dont know much about Korean mythology so I was expecting a little context at least in ep 2. What a shame! I was really looking forward to phs's first antagonist role but I think I'll stop here.
10/10
Were their characters from the movie Kim ji young born 1982?
