I actually think this series is really overhyped and the story itself was somewhat mediocre. The production and acting were both very good to excellent. I think there are other series that are far more deserving of more attention. However, it's good to see a kdrama doing so well internationally. Also, great job on this article.
Their native names or screen name everyone views during their dramas should be used for identity on mdl. Many actors may have an english name but who searches for it? Do we even know it? I had to actually go to some of the actors dramas to even find them. Search Yang Zi for instance and search results are negative. I speak english as a first or native language but have never once tried to find a celebrity online from what is essentially a nickname.
I picked Hotel Del Luna as one of my votes. Man-wol seemed to be a strong female character throughout most of the series. I love her and the story. However, after seeing the whole story I have to question the way most of us see her. Was she a really strong character? OR Was she actually much weaker than most perceive her? For a starter - It took her 1300 years to begin to be a better person or even attempting to be truly understanding. This alone makes me wonder if i should have voted for this series as a SFL. What are your thoughts? Do you think she was strong or not?
It seems strange to see that so far he isnt listed in a lead role after an excellent performance as Feng Bufei. If i remember correctly he also stood out in Queen Dugu.
