Is it just me or the mother is basically J hope in female middle aged version???! She really looks like J hope from BTS to me lmao

Yes, they were naked but they didn't have actual sex probably. Just acted it.

That's the point. Even without the sex scenes the plot itself is still very mature and 19+. A king who is gay and is madly in love with his guards chief whom he basically raised, decides to let his lover sleep with his queen so that he has a heir and of course the heir is supposed to look like his beloved guard. He even go as far as watching to make sure it happens...etc I think the sex scenes were meaningful since they showed how just simple lust transformed into love and it lead to the ruin of all characters. The more they slept together they more they became obsessed with each other. Many people might not fancy sex scenes, especially if they are too vulgar and non that much related to the plot which is understandable, but they were well done and had a point in this movie. It made the whole thing more realistic.
There are many other great movies with more tamed themes than this one which you can recommend to anyone who doesn't really support mature content.

Ikr! I'm kinda worried about how they will handle the ML's character. Really wish they won't ruin him to make FL more likeable.

I did tell this drama wasn't gonna be that great from the beginning. Most latest Kdramas aren't that amazing honestly. Especially since many are trying to kind of have the same vibe as American shows.

Exactly! I don't know if she is insecure yet tries to hide it with acting stuck up to get over the embarrassment of her mistakes, or she actually view herself as a great human being who knows it all. If she really don't want any mistakes to happen then she should always keep an eye on everything.

That's one of my biggest pet peeves actually, how she keeps messing up and never get scolded. She is getting treated like a spoiled child whom their parents allow them to do whatever and pass it with the excuse of them being young. In real world she would get fired or demoted since like episode three.

Indeed! The drama would suck greatly if they made him a total naïve pushover, like how they usually make females characters in Asian dramas.

I agree, 16 episodes are unnecessary.

Not sure, but it's gonna get super cliché for sure.

Well, we will see if the plot and characters gonna improve in next episodes or not.

Yes, I watched it and made a long comment about it already (Which you can check, if you want). I agree with what you said. The more I watch the more frustrated I get! Everything about her way of acting, talking, thinking...etc all are a huge chaos. I'm starting to consider dropping the drama at this point. Only reason I'm staying is for Song Kang and that's about it. The writer totally ruined her character honestly. Everyone in her team are way better than her.

Yeah, he does has an eerie vibe at times, not gonna lie. Kinda reminds me of his character in Nevertheless lmao

Ep 5 :
1- I was so freaking satisfied when that young lady stood up against the FL's scolding over the not reporting the rain issue. It's ironic how that the FL made the biggest amount of mistakes, shit orders, and odd actions and now she thinks she has the right to scold others for making one mistake. I mean yeah it's her duty as a director, but she is still not fitting to be one at all. She doesn't realize what being leader is all about to begin with, nor bother understand what is going on with the people working in her team because she is clearly more busy trying to hide her love affair from them.
I was glad that woman told her that they have no faith in her cause she doesn't even has faith in herself in the first place. Imagine being a director who is supposed to be better than others enough to get chosen for that position at young age and then hear such a thing from your underling. Her messy behavior is making everyone in the team anxious. Her becoming a director wasn't a good idea at all. She will need a long time till she earn her team's trust. The ML even had to go around talking with everyone in the team to calm them down...He feels more like a leader than her at this point. He is new, yet everyone are already comfortable enough with him.

2- The FL's mother is seriously getting on my nerves. According to her the only way her daughter can be happy and make her proud is by getting married?! Her daughter studied hard obviously, then graduated to have a good job and got promoted to a director position in young age. All that and her mother isn't proud but her standing next to a man is what gonna make her truly worthy? Just cause she raised her (Which is her mother duty, any parent must take care of their children. It's not a favor or charity to be worshiped or praised for. It's their freaking duty) she thinks she has the right to make such decisions for her? She clearly doesn't view her daughter highly at all. Her daughter recently got over an awful relationship and her mother doesn't want to let her breath and pick the time she prefers to get into another relationship?! Even if she never get married, so what? It's not like she is gonna die or become homeless.

3- Seriously how long are they gonna make the FL and ML along with their Ex gf and bf act like dumb kids? The main leads trying so hard to hide their relationship which ends up making it painfully obvious instead, the second leads acting jealous over the stupidest reasons and pretending to be lovey dovey in front of main leads, the rude ass ex fiancé saying all that crap to FL then telling his wife to leave her work so she won't interact with her ex bf whom she cheated on with him...the one who is truly brazen in whole drama is him. Every one of them is making me cringe hard with how childish they are being when they are literal adults, even married adults. The drama is getting more and more cliché like teen rom coms instead of having a more mature and professional vibe.

4- That last scene at the motel, I guess they decided to add lame misunderstandings to make the plot more dramatic which happens all the time in K-dramas. They are probably gonna keep doing that till the last episode. As if the romance wasn't irritating enough. Besides if they act immature with this whole thing instead of talking and explaining calmly that will be the last straw. Especially since they aren't even dating officially to begin with. They are more of friends with benefits for now.

This was the most boring episode so far honestly. Feels as if the plot is gonna go downhill from here, I hope it won't though. So far they are kinda giving more importance to the romance than the work part, I wish they would balance it more. Really hope the FL start acting properly and use her brain well in the next few episodes so no more stupid job related accidents happen.

Oh, I watched that one! Was good indeed.

Only watched the first episode but it made me die of boredom. I do love thriller genre, but I guess this one isn't my taste. No one among the main characters caught my interest. The ML, I remember him being the lead in Prison Playbook. I watched like 4 episodes of that drama then dropped because I couldn't stand his character. He again has a hideous haircut here and feels like a robot trying to act.

Oh, I watched the Semantic Error anime version and liked it. I will check out all the ones you mentioned. Thanks a lot for the recommendations!

Highly doubt it as well, it's rare when same actors act together for more than one drama.

Thanks a lot! Gonna check it out!

I was dying the whole time I was watching this drama. Like everything was so freaking stupid I couldn't help but bust out laughing, even during the last episode. It seems we can't hope for a BL K-Drama that's better or as good as Light On Me anytime soon sadly. Only things that kept me watching were the visuals of Kim Ji Woong, he is a fine ass looking guy! Along with the really good kissing scenes, but everything else was garbage. If only they took this plot seriously and gave the same effort they gave to Light On Me, it could end up being decent but well...
