finally finished it today, it had its funny moments and there was enough fluff to satisfy me, but it was needlessly long and SFL suffered because of this, everything that she went through and all the decisions that she made were just there to pad the run time, like she did every evil thing in the book, she tried to kill FL, she betrayed her own "mom", her city and even the people close to her, and they still wanted to redeem her, do you know why? because she was needed to make the series last 24 episodes, that's all.
PS: I also had another gripe with SFL and her armor, why was it that they never washed her clothes? she always had the little blood on the white parts of her armor around her neck, and it was so annoying to see, like it's been months, don't you own other clothes? maybe that's why she went evil so suddenly and out of nowhere, lack of clothes🤣🤣🤣
i think the first one is explained by the portion with the old man. this is the job he loves and is his blood,…
I get all that, but he could clearly see that for months, it was not gonna happen, so at some point he should have seen reason and tried to look for other avenues.
If murder is the only way you can get this job, maybe it's time to look elsewhere.
and before you come at me, I do get what they wanted to portray and the message of the movie, it's just not that believable, especially for a movie that wants to be taken seriously.
I find this boring and repetitive. Every problem is solved via food, every meal she prepares is delicious, villains…
I wish her food was solving problems. that's the thing though her food was like fast food, a momentary happiness, and then they were back to their scheming and general evilness, she changed no one that was already bad.
just finished watching it, and it was quite a fun watch, there were some issues that I had with it though, like why does he only have to have the paper job? there are so many other options.
or why did he even call that old guy to prevent him from seeing his wife cheat? like what was the purpose of that?
why couldn't the music teacher secretly record the kid playing the cello so the parent could see? for the longest time I thought she was scamming the parents?
don't really get the wife hiding the secret too? isn't she afraid that he might do the same to any of her kids or even herself?
she doesn't even get a proper background, we have no idea why she wants the king dead.
yeah, she's just there to drive the plot.
to be fair though, most of the characters don't have any depth, even FL doesn't have much development, I think ML is like the only person that had any depth.
He wasn't even a proper Tyrant.what kind of a Tyrant listens and takes other people's advice into consideration?…
You just don't get what I'm saying, I don't care about history, in the drama they called him a Tyrant and there was nothing to indicate that, and in the title, it's called tyrant's chef, it's just misleading and false advertising, that's all I'm saying
He wasn't even a proper Tyrant.what kind of a Tyrant listens and takes other people's advice into consideration?…
OMG! he exiled someone after they insulted the king, oh! then he must be a tyrant😪are you serious, dude? you call that being a tyrant? I guess we have a different understanding of the word Tyrant, a true Tyrant doesn't wait for evidence to start his killings, all he needs is his own conviction and desire.
I also don't remember him killing a group of minister😒where did you get that from?
Just finished it and overall it was a fun watch, they did lose me a little with the out of nowhere villain, but he was too goofy to be taken seriously so that was fine. the major issue I had with the movie was the lack of romance, it's part of the genres of the movie, and it gets mentioned in the summary too, but tangibly there is nothing.
if we consider ML falling for the ghost lady as part of the plot, then it brings up the issue of that fact that he didn't fall for Seon Ji, he was just superficially attracted to her at the beginning.
If we don't consider him falling for ghost lady, and consider it just friendship, then we go back to square one with my issue of lack of romance.
Overall, it's a fun watch, and I'll recommend it if you want some laughs and a little mystery, but that's about it, don't expect romance.

from what I understand he actually did a bunch of Tyrant worthy stuff beforehand, but we as the audience never really see it happen or in his behavior(he just throws some toddler level tantrums), it's an issue of telling instead of showing, from what I remember some people in the past even said so, so it's not just from history books. the drama's also called The Tyrant's chef, so it brings up an expectation of some Tyrant behavior.
PS: happy ending?

also is it available in English?
