Juniko

me too, I'm waiting for it to be over and I put it on my Top5^^

El Temur will soon be gone ^^

the epitome of perfection. Exactly. ^^ His next part should be a young widower or a single dad.

1st : Nyang second son is supercute !
2nd : YAY ! The truth will finally be revealed !!!

not surprising at all : this drama is pure daebakness

So, since Danashiri is decided to kill Nyang or her child, imagine she uses black magic after the birth of the child to "kill Nyang's first born"...she would be killing her precious Mahah with her own hand...

(history states that child is doomed to die during infancy, so I rather have the Empress make a dreadful mistake than see the Emperor fall into the dark side and murder his own child, as he threatens to do in 35's preview)

OMO OMO OMO OH MY GOD OH MY GOD !!!!!!!
that was even better that I imagined !

(just : too bad they're adding sorcery again...this was the perfect saeguk)

I know right? no, I mean : I KNOW RIGHT ?!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi ! I wanted to tell you you did great in your review of Man from the Star, so don't mind the Helpful/unhelpful ratio.

I also spoke my mind about this drama in a review and gave it an Overall 6 and got tons of "Unhelpful"s.
I see a lot of review pointlessly filled with 10s that are rewarded with a lot of "Helpful"s, so I'm starting to think that a lot of fangirls are haunting the reviews area of that drama.

So anyway you wrote a great review. ^^

It was shown as movie in a theater near my house, in 2 parts.

Yes, he was also Japanese (named Kota, 9 years older than me). It's not that there are lots of Japanese in my life, it's just that find trouble comunicating with western men. It's true ! The few men I ever had a relationship with without feeling too exposed or suffocated were Asian. Something tells me it has something to do with the mean and indecent sense of humor french men have and use when flirting...

I'm not sure what I want, all I know is:
1 - I like him
2 - I don't want to stop seing him
3 - I feel at ease with him and it's amazing to see how much we talk. It's like we can really talk about anything. Even subjects that are generally considered as taboo (religion, for example) are not excluded.

So have him as a friend first and more if it's bound to happen later is something I could accept...

(PS : "ride the white horse" is something I head in Eat Your Kimchi)

Thanks everyone.

I would recommend that you wait and see the female lead. She's the one holding the whole thing together, if you like her, go for it.^^
And thanks^^

but I've got the impression that many don't like my review...

and thanks^^

I edited it to warn the reader to first complete the drama then read the review. Because of that spoiler. sorry.

thanks so much. Did you mean a comment on the feeds/forum or my review ? Anyway thank you.

I don't think any of the consorts have been granted favor, since the Emperor began the summon Nyang every night starting soon after she became consort. But he did favor the Empress at least once, you have that episode in which the empress is bitter because she felt that the man embracing her was like an empty shell with not felling for her at all. So at some point he did perform his duty, but nothing more. That's the way I see it.

(part 2)

But I really enjoy being with him, and I'm not in the same emotional state I was in November, when I was heart-broken and weak emotionally. Then my hormones were telling me "get a man for youself and forget about that jerk, NOWWW!". Now that I'm myself again, I know that I really, honestly like him. So I don't know. I know I'll see him again, but I don't know if I want to "officially" go out with him. The best for me would be to stay friend and tag along and see how it goes.

If he wanted me just for sex, he would have tried already, because he already saw me weak and even a tinsy bit drunk. But like I said, he's only there for 5 more months. Maybe he's playing the long game and his final goal is the "ride the white horse" before coming back to the motherland ?

(part 1)
I think that either way you should watch the ending. Any weird ending is better than the depressing cliffhanger of episode 19. Plus if you don't watch the ending, you'll miss some awesome scenes - but I don't want to spoil.

About Hiro, I think you're right, and that he is interested. After all, we ate together in the past, but paid separately, and last monday was the first time he ever paid for anything. Also, he did ask me some personnal questions. For example, he asked me "when you think about 'love', who's the first person that come to your mind?". He claimed that it was for a survey he had to do for school, but I think it was a pretext to ask if I was single.

But honestly, I'm not sure I'm ready for any relationship, and anyway he's bound to leave France at the end of the school year so at best we have 5 months before he starts living half-way across the world.
