Wow. Thanks for the heads up. Are there any alternative streaming places with decent subs? 🙁

just in case anyone out there in MDL land is still planning to watch this (2025) , as i am...it's currently on daily motion and tubi. apparently we'll need tissues.

starting to watch on Netflix now, and i'm totally invested. great ML, Saitoh Takumi. he's putting all his energy into the part, and it shows. SO many comments here on MDL about the show and its commentary, but can't find any spoilers about HE or not. just for the record, i have suspended disbelief. i'm just watching a funny/quirky/loving show. someone PLEASE spoil it for me. i don't want to go through 6 episodes to find he's had an abortion. i'll cry ugly tears. <3

In episode 2 where our drummer girl, Akane, is trying desperately to create the sound Naoki wants (time stamp around 16:00), her playing appears possessed. It hearkens back to the wonderfully dramatic scenes in "The Red Shoes" (1948) where Moira Shearer is dancing furiously for her mentor, the red shoes seemingly driving her crazy. totally giving me the crazy musician vibes. what a great show so far!

Shison Jun. that’s all you need to know. That and music. I’m all in. ♥️

i wanted and really tried to turn my head away at some parts. it was riveting to the point that i had to pay extra attention to the undulating plot. but dittoes and amazing job to all the main leads, especially Jun Ji Hoon, whose face and emotions could draw you in like hypnosis. Kim Kang Woo (the prince) did crazy so perfectly that i literally cringed with most of his scenes. The OST made this chilling movie more palatable and enticing by the addition of ROK traditional Pansori used in the narration. what a real surprise and a treat! more ROK series and movies should make use of this amazing music genre that but for the grace of G-d may have disappeared through Japanese colonization. Not sure if the spoiler button is necessary since i won't be giving specifics....but the last 30 seconds of the very last scene made my tears of sadness and heavy heart do a quick happy double take. please watch this movie and give it some love for the actors going above and beyond their comfort level. watched on amazon prime in the US.

Another Easter egg for you. In episode 11 of The Sparkle in Your Eye, Pei Jia and Su Yi are also watching East Palace West Palace. It’s apparently Su Yi’s favorite movie. The dialogue of the on-screen movie is where the one actor professes his love for the other. Totally made my heart stop. Two cutting edge movies tugging at your heart strings.

Fixed! Watching on HULU 7/3/25. At 24:00. Dalian is the way it’s spelled in English. I don’t read Korean so I don’t know how it’s spelled in native language. Apparently someone heard yall. Great movie so far! But you gotta realize it’s a war movie and it’s gritty. KHB delivers!

I just can’t get the subs to appear normal. Sorry I need help here. I’ve tried both You Tube and Daily Motion, where it’s available in the US. the subs are microscopic. I’d really like to watch it too.

Update for anyone interested. It is on TUBI.

Love Taecyeon’s acting in everything he’s done. Is it only available on VIKI at higher level right now? It’ll be worth the wait.

Hahahaha😳. CCP already has their dirty hands in too much globally already.

OMG! I can’t thank you enough! You made my day ♥️

Thank you, Netflix for not completely caving in to gossip and fear mongers. There must have been thousands of us watching this amazing movie on the first day it’s available on NF. Yoo Ah Inn was captivating. I dared not miss any moments. And Lee Byun Hun was smooth and perfect for the role. This is a must watch. Totally riveting. 👍🏼

OMG! SO many rave reviews about this show. thinking of viewing, and since the OST is supposed to be awesome, it's extra incentive. but please someone spoil this for me, happy ending? (so many reviews but couldn't confirm HE) if i even see a guy in a uniform get shafted, i'll bawl. TIA y'all! <3

OMG! The little boy was Leo Woo??? It looks just like him. Wish Leo would’ve been the actor to play older version. He’s gorgeous ♥️

@CreatO, would that even be possible...to re-create the series with Yoo Ah IN's scenes? it looks like a majority of posters here would appreciate something "else" to add to the flow of the series. i think that "something" is all those scenes with YAI. such a waste and shame to cancel someone who has already paid the price for his petty crimes. ROK is so hateful in this issue. IMO, they could use some forgiveness in their lives.
