I just completed The Eternal King Monarch and thought I would love this show because I really like the lead actress and the writer. I was never a big fan of Lee Min Ho, not even his looks but seeing him as a king and his prefect hair , I see his charms. I want his perfect hair.
But one thing that annoyed me majorly was how they show that the king has no skill in shooting using the gun n that’s y he went to the navy to serve. And then there is one scene where he goes on a killing spree with his gun n killing everyone at one shot, even those who r standing far. (Insert “hands in the air” emoji”), plot hole or what ??
Other also had so many problems with this show too, with what it portrayed and stuff.
It’s not a show I would rewatch again but a show where I would watch some 30 seconds scenes again. I liked all the side actors, <3Eun Seop<3 in the show. I wonder how I would feel if I binged the show than watch each episode weekly, most likey keep fast forwarding as there are a lot of repetitive scenes.
The actors looked like they had great chemistry and shippers were going crazy, and of course I’m one of those shippers. But in the drama, u don’t see any moments which is really touching.
My fav part was how she falls in love with him after she realizes he’s a king, my kind of gal.:)) But again , not at all real for a drama n wouldn’t convince audience. I really couldn’t see their love, it was rushed. And her crying everytime she saw him, I couldn’t feel the emotions and relate.
And also in the end, Tae Eul who has all her memories dint care to even ask for her childhood buddy and wasn’t even curious about him? I guess the time traveling and the diamond coat buttons was enough for this justice seeker who lives to protect people.
And the ending is a long distance parallel universe dating relationship? Should I be happy with that ending ? How does that make sense? Until when will it last ? Shouldn’t a King settle down n produce a heir ? So bring her to his universe, when and how ? So many unanswered questions just like how 2020 has been.
Not so much character growth and the story is supposed to be confusing with parallel universe and such and had so much to explore and get in depth with it but was very lacking and fell flat in the end, there was no mystery to anything. And everyone knew how it would end. And I wouldn’t even look forward to watch this show every Friday and I would forget it as soon as I watched it. Really wanted more from the writer, she usually has such good stuff. Maybe I had too much expectations. And omg the product placements, the story was written around the products more!!! 2020 continues to disappoint.

If only the series was good as the lead’s faces! Such a let down.
I would suggest watching this series for these reasons :
1. Misery loves company, so watch n join my pain and disappointment.
2. The first few episodes were so good and almost made you believe that there was no COVID in this worldand gave you hope to live.
3. The lead actors are so good looking with beautiful hair.
4. Scrubb songs that you will be introduced to.
5. Last but not the least and the best reason - so you can understand and then read the reviews here and their comments, it’s hilarious. I wish one of these reviewers were the script writers.

2020 really is ruining everything, I don’t think we can blame the director or scriptwriters.

I really tried to love the series coz I heard so many people describe it as “healthy”. It was so boring! The story did not develop until 18th episode! N none of the characters did anything for me ... I guess Top did coz he cooked n got me hungry at odd hours. So really had no interest in this show. Kept waiting for it to get better.
+ 3 for great crying and producing snot
+ 2 for all the hand washing n sanitizing awareness creation
+ 4 for all the food
- 8 for no real story development until ep 18
- 2 for creepy dolls on gate
- 2 for all the noise Win made with spoon
- 3 for rose wallpaper and those ugly shirts
+ 3 for great cuddles
+ 6 for product placements

Grand total of 3

You are my milk Man

On the finale episode of “You are my Milk Man”, Milk Man delivers milk to his master and finally yells at him in gas station. Gui who has given up his dreams for his “ Solo” dream - to make Solo the best human n best business man ever is rightfully upset when Solo wants to leave it all and run away.
Solo then realizes that Gui has given up his dream because his Ice father “gently threatened” Gui and put then him in Admin department so that he can train to be a secretary for his son!
Solo wants to learn music, so atleast secretary should have some business sense. So best to make Gui (who is dreamless n in pain after his adoptive moms death) study MBA n learn business n then support his super rich boyfriend.
I mean, so logical ... Gui, an orphan can never reach Solo’s level of success, so best to just manage Solo n stand behind him while being a supportive mom , boyfriend, business adviser and Milk Man! Behind every successful man, there’s a ______? It’s Gui! Gui has to be behind Solo!
Father Billionaire Ice who is squint eyed lacks any warmth but Jay assured us all that it’s there. When we think Mr Ice is looking at ghosts on walls while Solo is talking about his life plan, Jay actually knows that he’s looking into Solos heart n not ghosts ! So when he plans to adopt Moon, how can one not be over joyed that he will have another chance to see if he can produce another model child like Solo n give him the same love Solo always grew up with. I’m sure Jay will interpret this love for us soon.
Also, stellar acting by the leads ... I hope Covid doesn’t cancel Oscars this year! If does get cancelled ... we know that Hollywood is being threatened by Solo and Gui’s acting.

This show has almost all the right ingredients (except for the last 2 rushed mins that don make sense) but somehow it’s still not cooked properly! U know what I mean ...?

Great story n all but not rightly made.
I guess it was shot during lockdown so we have to cut some slack for it but so was Gameboys n others ... wasn’t it?
The things that bothered me most about this was the art on the walls ... not the MewGulf posters by the bed but the phallic art work in lot of places ... seriously what’s the need?
