Many people don’t like the cooking competition but it was okay for me. I love how the king & Ji young gets…
the cooking competition by itself was good, it's just that it takes way too long and doesn't really mean anything in the end, it was just there to pad the run-time. if this was a 30 episode drama, people would have had less of an issue with it.
I don’t understand the people on here when there is a good drama you don’t like it and when there’s is a…
if it was supposed to be lighthearted and fun then they should have kept it that way, they tried to force a bunch of serious stuff in and it ruined the flow of the drama, it was awesome until episode 4, but after they added the palace BS into it, it fell apart.
Oh and the end is so cringe. That had a good potential though. Sad.
it's not just his entourage, he himself is stupid too, he had all the evidence of her being from the future and still wasn't believing her, or questioning her to make a better future for himself
It started off strong for the first four episodes, then completely lost its spark. I honestly don’t understand…
yeah, the first 4 episodes were really good, FL could have done so much with her knowledge of the future, but she ended up being useless. I would have even accepted that her food is magic, and she's changing the "evil" people with her cooking for the better, but nope! just a meaningless illusion once they tasted the food and then nothing.
It would have been much better if she had worked with the King to stop the rebellion and change the "Tyrant"king to a "sage"king because as it stands she changed nothing, and he fucked off to the future with no explanation so he's probably still a "Tyrant" in the history books.
overall this was a fine watch, nothing out of this world or amazing, just a simple fantasy drama with lots of potential that as usual went unfulfilled.
The beginning episodes were excellent, and I loved the banter between ML and FL, but the more I watched, the more I realized the writer has no idea what he's doing.
a lot of things bothered me in this drama which I'm gonna list them here:
1. the comedy started superbly but after episode 3/4 they either forgot that this was a comedy or just gave up on it.
2. the romance was mediocre at best, there were glimpses of chemistry between the leads, but they went underutilized by the writer, they could have had FL be casual with the king and keep the way she was talking to him at the beginning, that would have not only added to the comedy, but it also would have been a reason why the king falls for her, as it stands he just fell for her our of nowhere.
3. ML as king was also quite disappointing, dude was one of the most neutered kings I've seen in a while, like either have some power or intellect, unfortunately he was lacking in both.
4. there was too much time wasted on the Mings and the cooking in general, it like 80% of the plot, which at first it was quite nice but it got boring fast.
5. the rest of the cast were more of an after-thought.
6. did not enjoy the ending one bit, having the casts look alike in modern times was stupid, and ML suddenly just being there was also stupid. I would have rathered she stayed in the past became the queen and actually changed history and made him a "sage king".
watched and that's when I realized maybe friends to lovers is not my trope and I like the female lead in other…
there was zero chemistry, the writing also lets it down massively. friends to lovers is a trope that can work really well, the issue here is that there is zero effort in making the FL fall for ML, all the love is coming from ML, and it actively feels like every time there might be a moment between them, the director cuts it too short and ruins it. it feels like the director didn't want to make a romance and someone forced them into making one against their will.
does it have anything explicit between teacher and student? it doesn't have a content rating, so I was wondering is it safe to view in the living room?

then there is also the issue of FL just coming out of a super serious relationship, and she's focused on trying to start a new career, the plot just doesn't lend itself to the romance cuz there is no way you're gonna jump into a super serious relationship right after breaking up with your fiancé, especially when you might not have the time for it when you're developing a new career, a risky relationship at that, with a friend that if not successful could ruin several friendships.
