I came here to say this! I couldn't keep going either. Her character makes no sense and she makes me sick to my stomach. I tried ep 11, but as soon as she showed up, I couldn't keep going.

I should have stopped after she asked her son to force her daughter-in-law to illegally change the deed on the property. What kind of person does this?

Its too bad, as I was curious about how they'd play out the two parallel stories. Does she have a fate and both choices ultimately lead to the same conclusion? Or are both choices just different mixes of joys and losses?

Guess I'll never know.

my thought, exactly.

This is mostly light and easy to watch.

One big note: both the FLs have horrible character writing. I know its from an old game, but some things aren't necessary to keep as they were.

FL1 is crying in almost every single scene. What in the world did her grandmother teach on that island for all those years? She seems so completely ungrounded. And the ML is supposed to be attached to her, why? Because she's pretty? Who wants to be around someone who cries all the time?

FL2 keeps pining for someone she knows is in love with someone else. That someone else is supposedly her friend. It gets boring. Have her be an actual friend and move on, already. There isn't anything in the plot which requires her being so lacking in self-esteem that she would keep this up.

This is a mesmerizing watch. So quiet, yet intense. I sometimes can't exactly follow, but as I hang in there, I get it.

One thing I'm noting is that I don't really care which side wins in the end. Its just fascinating to watch the game play.

Ok. Maybe "raised" was the wrong word. But she watched him grow up. He was a human child and she was the oldest and most powerful fox spirit.

Anyway, I guess it doesn't bother anyone else.

Are we supposed to ship Yue Chu with Hong Hong?

Its not weird to anyone that she basically raised him as a child and that there is a massive age and power difference? I know its fantasy. Still.

Do we know if Wu Zhu survived his fight with master behind the water fall?

^ this. they are all more mature and they've had 5 years for their characters to simmer within them. To me, they're all far more nuanced in this season and the chemistry amongst them all is much more superb.

its more palace intrigue than action adventure, so it may feel "slower", but the story writing is excellent and the acting is top-notch. I'm far more captivated this season. Not that I didn't enjoy season 1, obviously, but this is sublime.

she's not. the real one is out there. i cant remember details, now.

it just keeps getting worse. not sure I can finish this. why would she willing meet alone, much less get into a car, with someone involved in a murder; someone she knows spiked someone else's drink; someone she knows is dangerous? what in the world could she have accomplished? why is this very smart woman so dumb? who wrote this character?

omg, even the White Truck of Doom?!

Yoon Park is a scene stealer here. He's so good at the comedy.

that scene bothered me a lot, for all the reasons you mention. way beyond what is acceptable for willing suspension of disbelief.

They're taking a serious look at depression, particularly that which comes from being driven too hard, toxic competition and the toxic social behavior that comes from that.

So, what's with the absolutely juvenile cliched bits once they become romantic? I'm skipping the entire scenario of "let's not tell anyone." I'm assuming it won't matter to the storyline. But, why would she set him up to be unjustly misunderstood? Its so out of character. And her mother beating him up is not funny. Can we stop using violence as humor, please?

they are both adult actors. It doesn't matter if adult actors are just playing characters.

The age difference of the characters is more meaningful to me.

They're both adult actors. They can choose to be in a drama together. The bigger question is about the age difference of the characters. Storytelling is powerful and can normalize things that we don't want normalized. But, if the characters are only, say, 5 years apart and they're both adults, then it shouldn't be an issue.

Its a dead give away when you put such a well-known face, an actor who has such vibrant presence in every role he plays, into an almost non-existent character, who barely has one line. By the second time I saw him and realized he had such an insignificant role, I knew he was the culprit. Kept hoping he would turn out to have some other meaningful reveal. Still, I'm glad he wasn't just in there as a silent cameo.

I don't if its just the way the music is employed in this production or what, but sometimes, it feels very much like a J-Drama.

Finally getting to this and really enjoying it. But, why are people always hitting each other? Baekdo is constantly being slapped. I feel hit myself every time it happens. He's a gentle personality who just wants everyone around him to be happy and still, they're always hitting him.
