I don't know what it is about this show, but I'm finding it compulsively watchable.
I can barely understand what the heck is going on (mostly because of the poor subs, but also because there are numerous plot holes and gaps you're required to fill in for yourself).
I don't see it having a happy ending, either, which is usually the point where I drop a drama. I still can hardly wait for the next new episode. This drama has special sauce, although I'm damned if I know what it is.
This is better than expected. If you can put up with Mango's mangled subtitles, it's worth your while, but you'll need to concentrate while you watch so you can figure out what the characters are saying. Also, the synopsis above is not especially helpful. Essentially, this is a drama about a woman who is viciously betrayed, who gets a chance to even the score. I think.
Well, damn. I've only watched 2 episodes (23 minutes, altogether. LOL.) and I'm in danger of wearing out the rewind button. This show is on track to be a 300 minute drama it takes me a week to watch because I keep rewinding the good parts. [fanning self]
Alrighty. Is it a HE, or not? Also, I'm confused as all get out about how many episodes, total, there are. Is it 59 or 59 + 2, so 61? If the ending is pissing people off, yeah, I can't use an ending like that right now.
Honestly, I was looking forward to watching this, but I watched 20 minutes of the first episode, and I was so bored and tired of the plot already, my eyes rolled up in in my head high enough to see my own brains.
Excited to have just now learned that the author of "Love Like the Galaxy" also wrote "The Story of Ming Lan" (one of my top 10 dramas of all time, and certainly my top Cdrama.)
I'm going to wait until all the episodes are subbed because I'm an impatient type, but it's getting harder to wait, based on how much you all like this.
Whew. I was worried that the writer was going to give us an ending that ruined the drama, but it didn't happen, and that alone makes the show way above average. You can relax and simply delight in how happy the drama makes you feel, and that's a lot to get.
Probably won't be a lot like Alcott's "Little Women", and we'll probably enjoy it more if we don't cling to an idea that it will have much to do with the original. That's my plan, anyway. (I'm remembering how excited I was when I first heard that "Tempted" was inspired by "Dangerous Liasons", and you guys know how little that turned out to be.)

Pity. I would like to have seen what people thought were the most amazing dramas of 2022.
