Plot holes aside, I actually didn't mind the characterization of Fl as such, it was just the actress 's facial expressions which were either too much or too little everytime, that threw me off! Lol let's just say it was hard for me to watch her reactions that I actually wanted to stop watching it in ep 2!Then my curiosity for mystery thrillers got better of me and binged it fully! Lol I was just staring at the background when they showed her facial expressions in close up! Her characteristics were similar to BBC Sherlock series's Sherlock, so I was kinda ok with a little childish bratty behaviour since I have seen many copies of that version of Sherlock Holmes. There are even many Japanese versions of both male and female Sherlocks! All behave similarly and here at least they give excuse of trauma regression or something in the beginning, others don't even bother! Lol But the only diff is that those actors both male/female who played such roles were aces in the acting dept! Plus I guess the ML was supposed to be playing the John Watson kinda loyal side kick role here, so I guess that's why his characterization is like that.
Anyway, I actually thought there was going to be a sequel! Ugh I hate when they leave us hanging in the last second! They should have cut that last second puzzle scene then and finished it properly! :x Btw looks like it was filmed 2 - 3 yrs back, maybe there was some production issue or something for the late release, who knows...
Show was a decent enough mystery thriller. It was easy to guess, but they gave enough red herrings to make it…
It was so wierd that the mom did not return to the Amusement park to search for the daughter, that too her lil 7 yr old daughter and was instead so stupidly sitting at her restaurant and waiting for her for 10 yrs! Lol who in what wierd world would do that? Which mom won't go and search for her in the park and ask about her to authorities and wait everyday for her there? Here the daughter was visiting the park everyday and mom was sitting in the restaurant and waiting? Whole thing is so illogical! The mom could have easily found her daughter in the scenario they have shown in this show! They needed a better reason for the whole revenge plan!
They maybe could have shown the lil girl getting kidnapped or something by those thugs and killing her mom and making her believe she was abandoned or something after killing her mom or something else altogether. Either way this being the reason the whole series is based on is silly. Hope S2 makes things better.
Show was a decent enough mystery thriller. It was easy to guess, but they gave enough red herrings to make it interesting. The main minus point for me was the FL's acting! I couldn't look at her face the whole time, her reactions were so cringe OTT most of the times. I like the somewhat wierd oddball characterization of FL something like BBC Sherlock series' Sherlock, but they could have chosen someone better to play it. I just came to know she isn't a newbie! I thought this is her first show that's why she was acting bad! Lol my bad!
And another minus was the major plot hole! Explored in next comment.
The leads finally got together and somehow I didn't feel a thing... :( Guess they stretched it out too much that I didn't feel any chemistry between them in that kiss scene. And that's unfortunate because I have been waiting for this show since its announcement just for the leads (KJE & BIH).
Anyway guess I will drop it now and read about the ending later. Hope to see my fav leads in new dramas soon with better script. Good luck to them! ❤️
Btw apart from all the romantic butterflies this show gives us, I love that it also gives us many thought provoking perspectives about various jobs and the big and small issues related to that. Overall, the episodes truly have a good amount of productive value to it, like they actually make you think about it. Kudos to the writers for writing such well rounded episodes! 👏👏👏
I think it will bring them closer. Seems like she has some resentment towards her father. Knowing what really…
Hmm well we can only guess what's actually going to happen, so I am open for anything. I won't mind if she is angry with him initially because of the shock but I will also be happy if she isn't angry, either way is fine for me. Now we have to wait for another week to find out what's actually going to happen.
I've watched the kiss scene from the preview way too many times to admit and still missed that they are wearing…
Of course being a super tall human shield should have its perks! Hehe 😁 Btw I really can't wait for a whole week to watch it! 😭 Channel ppl are a tease just like our FL!
So happy for him! He should do more romcoms, he is perfect for those roles. Loving him in Love scout and as rightly said in the article, his chemistry with Han Ji Min is 🔥!
I think it will bring them closer. Seems like she has some resentment towards her father. Knowing what really…
Yeah eventually it will make her hate him less but before that I think it will be normal for her to flare up knowing that he was the reason she lost her dad, especially since she is still not over the trauma. I think she is initially going to be a little too sensitive about it and break up with him and then maybe will calm down and understand things and make peace with it.
I think most historical Korean Crown Prince (not the playboy type) lacks on social interaction. They live in the…
No, I don't mind them showing the prince naive, my issue is with the writers stretching it endlessly for 11/16 episodes! Generally in such gender bender dramas, things get resolved by 6-7 episodes, i.e the Prince might fall for the 'guy' but panics and then finally finds out it's a 'she' not a 'he' and resolves his inner turmoil and then goes about wooing her. But here the story is nearing the end and he still hasn't found out, that's my issue.
I dunno the way it is going it looks like everything is going great except the romance part! The ML is still thinking FL is guy and no one including him has any idea about what he is actually thinking...
Whereas 2ML has already confessed and we see FL almost swaying? I dunno what it was they were trying to show by making her remind to herself that she doesn't have time for romance right after his confession?
Lol I now think it's better they leave the whole romance out of the story and show them as friends in the end rather than a hurried romance! Either way, next episode will be interesting. Finally our ML will know for sure she is a girl, yaay! Lol
Anyway other than that too episode is going to be powerful... One more important character is going to die unfortunately... 😭
Today I want to especially commend Han Ji Min, the lady is simply so effortlessly awesome! 👌👏👏 Her expressions are so natural and realistic, it's hard to think it was all just acting! Sometimes showing an effortless happy face requires more hardwork than endless waterworks and I truly think she truly deserves an award for this role! 👍
Btw I'm sure waterworks are going to come in next episodes sadly. I can see a major 💔. She is going to push him away knowing the truth about her dad and him but hopefully he'll win her over again soon. ❤️
Other than FL's wierd contact lens which keeps bothering me, I am actually liking the show! It's quite disjointed…
Ml's mom is so toxic and I guess she must have mentally tortured the FL with regards to her relationship with ML, so she is vary of the future of their relationship. I think ML knows that it's the reason they broke up, so if they patch up again, hope he breaks away from the toxicity, otherwise the same thing is going to be repeating.
Other than FL's wierd contact lens which keeps bothering me, I am actually liking the show! It's quite disjointed but I like the leads chemistry.
3rd episode was slow and melo and I thought that's how it's going to be but bam! The 4th episode was so funny, that it straight went to rom com territory! This show is really so unpredictable!
And every character is a little bit eccentric but the father daughter duo takes the cake! I find the father so wierd I dunno whether it is the character or the acting, but some thing's off.
Anyway it's a very flimsy misunderstanding the leads are having, so I hope they won't stretch it a lot.
Our Prince should get the dumbest Prince award! 10/16 episodes over and the writers still think it is a good idea to keep the Prince ignorant about the FL's gender?! Ughh! It's so frustrating that I feel 2ML should get the FL for his sheer efforts to court her! 🙄
Anyway the main story has caught steam and you can feel the climax of the story coming soon. I liked her mom, wish we had more scenes of her instead of irritating villains.
I hope her revenge pans out well. Her gambling den for foreigners only, was a cool idea, hope this revenge plan too is clever.
Either way I am going to watch it for the lead actors as I really like them and wish the script was better for their sake. Kim ji Eun especially is doing a stellar work. I loved her acting in the 9th episode, she was fab!
