A ๐ฅ red flag we all like to read about and watch in dramas as completely morally good guys are usually boring…
When you state dramas, I do think internationally instead of just C-dramas. And sometimes there IS scenes similar to Hollywood films and TV in C-dramas (and vice-versa), so while they're from different countries, they can be an overlap of themes.
To be honest, most male characters in historical C-dramas that I've seen have been screwed up to some degree but that isn't to say they couldn't be written to be less toxic and still be passionate kissers๐คทโโ๏ธ
Unsurprised by this, as I had an inkling this would happen. Japan tends to be more loyal to the source material, so this has potential! They just need to ignore what occurs in episode 12 onwards, really.
You are everywhere! Probably one of the prolific viewers on here and I love that๐
Woah, that's SO many! There are a lot of good ones around. I'm juggling a fair few as well: Broken the Heart (not subbed), Marry My Husband, Passionate Love, Indulgence and LTNS.
All night at that! Slightly reminds me of the amarous main couple's wedding night in My Sassy Princess.
IKR?! Quite daring with some of the lines and scenes. That's what can happen when they cast two actors that can kiss. I was like ๐ฒ at what was implied and heard, like 'is that allowed?!' ๐ Shame the FL in MSP wasn't better written but as it went on, they had some good kiss scenes and teasing.
Instead of portraying the minister's wife as the villain for mu*rdering her husband, it would have been great…
I see what you mean. Similar turning victim into villain trope happened in The Autumn Ballad and it made me sigh. I've noticed that it'll usually be short or be implied when it's a man's turn to be plummeled but a woman with have a drawn out scene of her being a punching bag.
Ep1 part 1 is muted, though.
This Korean version went off the rails by episode twelve so I'd like to see it done better.

I'll add Different Princess to my watchlist!
We have similar taste! ๐

I'm hoping for a great kiss scene๐
