Light hearted and cute as others have said that also pokes fun at itself. Some of the fighting scenes are hilarious and there are good running gags throughout such as Baba the Duck.
Our main pair are great together and TLY as a character is a delight, especially when she gives TTY such a hard time. Baby Zhang also shines in a show that, in some ways, is just simple, but old fashioned entertainment :)
I really enjoyed week six. All the different relationships are unfolding nicely and the story is much more interesting. Some of my favourite moments involve the “evil mum and son duo.” Their interaction is priceless. They seem to really enjoy playing those moments.
I’m still waiting for Min Ho to play it down a bit more. As for KSJ, let’s hope he kicks his antagonistic feelings sooner rather than later. We need to see more of the nice and determined guy. OPJ’s drunk scene telling her kids how it is was handled in a nice way.
This show deserves way more than its current rating :)
One of the things I really enjoy about this show (apart from the story) is the attention to detail. So, during ep 7, we saw some of the more intricate workings of the royal court and its formalities instead of let’s just have a chat about things. Even in the streets it’s not all pristine like you see in many dramas :)
Meaning please??? Do you mean she does not disappoint or that she does, she is new to me.
Aviis is a fabulous actress and does not disappoint. Her performance in Iron Ladies was very good. She is very adept at playing different types of roles and not all of them are listed here on MDL
Three episodes in and this show is right up there. As others have said, it doesn’t matter if it’s predictable or tropey, it’s just so well done. The cast is turning in a magical performance.
I thought the first two episodes were very good. However, I have struggled with the story since then. There are some wonderful performances throughout, delightful use of the camera and some of the best moments you will ever see in a drama. However, the flashbacks need their own drama and the current day setting, even when we come to understand the motivations of both leads, seem all too late. So, sadly, dropped.
What started off so well as a concept, became a forced mish mash of results over the last three episodes. The early episodes were interesting re the pursuit of the truth, the ugliness of smearing by others and the mystery of Kate’s father. However, there was never enough room to deal with the various relationships of the range of characters effectively.
End of Week 4. I like that, in some ways, it is more of an old fashioned drama. There are some funny moments, some comments re inappropriate biases and sparky relationships. I would like to see some more positives around LEJ as a character because she is quite clever and talented - it’s a shame she is at odds with OPJ.
This show is important because it can help many of us help others find their way through understanding what has happened to them in the past. People are like an elastic band - you will always get pulled back to the source of your trauma - we see Woo Joo in ep 7 (13/14) portray this extremely well re her adoptive mother :)
I really enjoyed eps 9 & 10. I know YF still has a lot more growing up to do, but we did get to see Ai Sha start to let go a bit and YF’s older brother come out of his lair :)
