I'm going to say this with 4 episodes to go. No way do people think "Youre Beautiful" is better than this drama. Everyone loves Park Shin Hye but the girl was an unhappy character throughout "Youre Beautiful" and the ML and SML were both not good enough. I cant remember a single song from "You're Beautiful" but I'll always remember Jin Hyuk performance in this drama. The FL, Seung Yun (Go Eun Ah) was likable and more like Eun Chan (Yoon Eun Hye) in Coffee Prince. The ML, Park Yoo Hwan protrayed a lonely ill temperatured prince well. Fans are not left thinking "but hes a really bad guy" like the ML in "Youre Beautiful". The storyline and characters of this drama kept my attention wanting to see what will happen next. Very talented cast. Good job whole cast and screen writer.
Not surprising that the villian is simply excused and forgiven (as usual in these dramas). They go as far to praise the villian for her hard work with empathy. I'm not going into a rant about the villian but I just dont understand how she is getting away with this.
Thank you for your thaughts, people can and will probably make joke that punch the whole way round, but I prefer…
Thank you. Punching down includes making jokes at disabled children. I often question the moral character of people who laugh at any joke and then to actually throw in the question of oppressed groups of people so calliously shows total lacking in conscience.
Although the title of the article mentions inequality, the article focus mostly on addressing whether crossdressing is a punchline but stirred too far from the real hierarchy between genders and within genders. There is a clear societal hierarchy in a patriarchy centered world. While the article mentions that the drama K-Pop, The Ultimate Audition is probably "playing" with the idea that male K-Pop idols have feminine traits, it avoid the subject that some women, also just look like boys. The FL in this drama and in Coffee Prince are examples of that. It goes both ways. I like this trope in Asian dramas, not at all in western entertainment. In western dramas crossdressing is always punching down and are never written well, especially in African American entertainment. It is always written to make a mockery of the black women. So in that aspect Asian dramas are ahead of the curve when it comes to addressing the sensitive subject of equality between genders allowing for more gender fluency. Do I think Christianity in western cultures have anything to do with this? As an American...absolutely. I often find in Asian dramas as seen in Weight Lifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo and The Strongest Devliveryman (mentioned in the article) that the males nor the females are a punchline. The crossdressing humbles the men in response to the clear patriarchal hierarchy of this world. The crossdressing allow the male characters to be carefree from the restrictions of those norms. That is my interpretation. I will say again that I like this trope in Asian dramas only. I feel like I have to be specific here. I think the crossdressing in these dramas serves the purpose and affrims the idea that people fall in love or chose to love no matter what another persons gender is and aknowledges a clear patriarch heirarchy in this world that we live in. I never considered that there maybe viewers who would view the crossdressing in these dramas as just a punchline. What would be the joke?
Nicely written. Good sound track. I love all of the characters. Ho Tae will always be my favorite. I think mom is clearly supportive of Dong Hui being with her son. I am happy for the main couple. 😍💕
They are so cute together. I enjoyed watching their friendship. I dont really want them to risk a friendship that last forever for a romance that may not. Hyung (what he wants people to call him), i think is such a coward or is Ho Tae just too carefree? Ho Tae's relationship with the girls is soo funny. He's adorable. Looking forward to seeing more of Ho Tae and Hyung's relationship in Unintentional Love Story. 💕
The writers could've just made a final conclusion with this one, just for closure, since they wanted to hurry through the story. Write in a time-lapse or something, instead of writng the script as if the drama would have another season.. The drama in 10 episodes appears to be only an introduction to the characters, abandoning the ML's male friends halfway into the drama. They're simply no longer mentioned. It's overall a good drama, funny and entertaining because of the original manga series that it is based on. The actors also performed well with the script that they had to work with.
DELIGHTFUL. 9/10OK, fine, so I teared up a few times and actually wept at the end...sue me. :) But in between…
Excellent! Wait until you see Ju Ji Hoon in Princess Hours. Its a romantic comedy drama in which he plays the crowned prince of modern day South Korea. ☺️👍
A nice, funny and adventurous depiction of King Sejong the Great. I enjoyed watching this movie and delving into a little history. Very admirable work. 💕
I have wanted to see this movie for 3 years after briefly reading the description but couldnt find it. I was watching another drama on Tubi when this movie appeared next. It is really good and thought provoking. I dont think the lack of indepth romance took away from the story but kinda made sense because the characters themself didnt really understand how to love or what it should feel like. I dont know what to believe about their illness in the end but it occured to me that this type of scenario could possibly be used in psychotherapy. If the illness is only what the person believe is in their head, than they can also have the belief that their illness is removed.
Jin Shi Chuan is like a superhero. I am impressed by this ML. Zhang Ruo Nan is a good actress, and delivers her lines so belivable whether she is funny or heartbroken. I'll allways remember her saying "but boss", in the 'My Boss 2024' Cdrama. Hilarious scene driving the boss's car. The Tubi (free) condensed version of 'A Date With Future' Cdrama is proably suitable for some viewers if they think this drama on Tencent is too long. I thought it was packed with action, comedy and romance. I loved every scene. 😍💕
Watched this movie 2 years ago but forgot it. I was not really sure how I felt about it but it is a fairly interesting story. Cake and handsome men. 😋🥰 I can't dislike that. I am now currently watching the anime on Pluto.
Fantastic story. Short and to the point. I dont think any more should be added to it in another season. The story comes full circle with Jung Jin and Lee Gil Yong taking the place of Jo Hee Ra and CEO Oh. 😍💕

I'm ok with the ending. 💕
