Episodes 8 & 9: Endless talk, man… show some good sequences. This much talking really killed my mood—that’s…
The Mother-In-Law’s “endless talk” on the ship was so cliché. Seen it hundreds of times; the evil villain spills out his/her evil plan instead of just killing the captive hero. It’s so contrived.
You know... I don't complain about the in your face HYPER Nationalism of Chinese in their dramas & movies. It's their nation, they love it, they want to promote it. They always have to be the best in the world, on the world championship stage winning and all other nations are shown having to cheer and clap and root for China. You can name countless dramas.
But there is a reason their are censors. There is reason you get specialized angles from dramas on the streets. There is a reason you could put an avatar pin down all over South Korea and the USA put have to fight to see the street view anywhere in China.
Not everything is about China. Not everything about China is good. China can talk shit about everyone else and wave their flag all over their dramas... No one goes out and tells them shit about it... but the idea they think they can control SOUTH KOREAN dramas like they live under CCP control is a bit telling, now isn't it. Feels like the old days when China made Korea it's red-headed step child bitch, took its women and wealth and made the citizens their slaves. Let's move on from those days and not be so HYPER Nationalistic.
And let's not deny that China will attempt to takeover Taiwan by any means necessary then squash their same sex marriage laws the second they do because they want to corner the semiconductor market of the world so they can CONTROL everyone else.... Stop being so freaking naive... Everyone else is just a straight up Marxist.
I enjoyed this very much. Bit over the top but possible in these times. We don’t have a clue how money is used and moved under the radar. Uff! The ending was adequate for the story. I see it as an open ending. Willing to hear insight and interpretation.
why do these kind of dramas have to have infidelity? i want to see a power couple instead I always like ALWAYS get male leads who cheat. i am fed up with this shit. cant writers do better writing and be more creative for once? why always cheating trope ughh
China can't even legally watch this show so they aren't getting any revenue from them anyway??
The show is over and done with, so the show it's self has already made it's revenue. If the actors are negatively impacted after the fact that's not really any thing to do with the show.
