I think the chemistry between the two leads really saved the drama. They kissed in every episodes but i never…
They spend so many episodes on multiple useless fights with the first few making you go "oh now he'll certainly die" till the 5th time around where you realize "Yeah, they'll never kill this dude." But the final battle, the most important one that will finally decide their fate, is finished in ⅓ of an episode. As always they added so much in the middle that there was nothing left for the ending
They tried to do the cold rigid male lead x warm and free-spirited female lead but instead of trusting the viewer to see for themselves they are pushing it in your face while pointing and saying: "Look look she couldn't fry an egg or pour a glass of milk and he did it in 5 minutes. Look there, there! You saw that right? Aren't they super opposites of each other? Aren't you fawning over the gap moe yet??"
In their enthusiasm they went overboard and made the plot too obvious. There are plot holes all over just the first few episodes and unrealistic events that would never happen in real life. "My cousin stole all my savings and now I'm homeless, but I was always so close to him so I won't pursue it anymore and just live in a hospital dormitory." What for nonsense thinking is that? No self-respecting person would let anyone steal that much money from them and then not pursue it and no hospital policy would allow non employees to stay in their dormitory.
This over the top writing shows the insecurity of the writer. Either they don't think they can write an intriguing story or they don't truat viewers to be smart enough to understand whats going on in the story. Viewers can watch the series and understand what is going on without the writer needing to hold their hand and lead them through all the plot points.
Everyone is saying that this is such a comfort drama when the second prince gives me another day of constipation for every second that he's on the screen.
As a Canadian, I'm a bit confused about how they got from Niagara Falls to Quebec City so quickly. 😂But apart…
I've seen this before in a japanese movies. It's probably because of the limited run time but they always meek it seem like characters go from one place to the other in no time. The animated movie Belle does it as well. It's a great movie but they act like you can go from the south of Japan to the North of Japan in just 5 minutes by train.
Does anyone know what the costume version of this one is called on MDL? On Google I found it as "Furen Ta Zhuanzhi Bufule zhi Jiangmen Zhu Xu" or as "Snatching a Playboy Husband" but MDL only shows this republic era version.
I really like their dynamic as a couple, but there are two points that kind of ruin it for me.
• I'm at episode 16 and I have no clue how they are going to fill the remaining 17 episodes other than a cat and mice game between the male lead and the antagonist. Like I said I'm at episode 16 but I'm pretty sure they could have concluded the whole show several episodes earlier.
• The female lead is weak and absolutely useless, so for the majority of the time she just stands there while the other actors interact. When you think she is about to power up through a turbulation the male lead ends up saving her because the challenge turned out to be more dangerous than they expected. So in the end she stil doesnt do much, which only gets more highlighted when you look at how overpowered the male lead is.
6 episodes in and....her parents could have just helped pay the grandmother'd shop or whatever it was. There really was no need for her to get a loan and to start this whole contract marriage.
This drama is a perfect example of one will let you burn for the world while the other will burn the world for you. After all these years I’m still obsessed
I'm not saying that it is solely because of this drama, but I'm sure that this drama did not help the already plummeting birthrate in South Korea. Dear lord, not just one but four mother-in-laws from hell. This drama was so exhausting...
