I already wrote it~ lol, I have so much to say about this drama though, I keep writing comments left and right xD

for instance, at the end of the drama I started wondering if the thing we were seeing was "the real world", and danoh was the original writer and that's why everyone looked like the characters we got to see.
like the lecture was talking about consciousness and what not, so I was like, this must be why the writer is writing "self conscious" characters. (which still could be true).
but I'm glad it's a "3rd" season kind of a thing. it's a good thing the writer likes to reuse their character drawings after all xD atleast this time no one has a death threat hanging on them. which was a necessary thing for secret and our drama in some ways xD

and I actually really want to see that!!! is it based on that movie fashion king(?) I haven't seen it but Oh Nam Joo felt too main leady to be a geeky unfashionable character xD
now, and the fact that danoh isn't dying, she could happily live with haru in the shadow, and as long as the writer keeps reusing characters, they could always reunite...

though, if I were to say one "bad" thing it'd be this "webtoon writernim! you should've made baek kyung as the 3rd season's main lead and tried to add a new character for him instead of reusing everyone!" xD

since this drama felt so unique and it also promised a sort of "breakaway" from the patterns we're used to, I think everyone started to have their own wishes about how the drama would develop, and that made it seem disappointing when those things didn't happen, but this drama did a great job telling it's own story.

before I talked about how every character was kinda forced to be the way they are because the writer made them that way, and that was mostly about baek kyung. but the ending made me think of haru.. he was a nameless extra, so he didn't have a background and that kinda made him a little "bland", you know? like he didn't have a childhood so he couldn't talk about his past and likes/dislikes like danoh and baek kyung. and he only got his characteristics while meeting danoh, which made her his beginning.. and she was the one that made him grow..
I think I'll just keep the rest of my thought for the review ;p

I made it! granted, I fastforwared/skipped 90% of each ep and I outright skipped ep15 and only watched the last min of ep16.. I mean the only thing I can say is this was plain stupid and a waste of the actors' potential...
woo dohwan was the only good thing.. and I'm not giving this a 1 just because of him ;)
I'd also like to take this chance and thank the not interested function, since Oct I actually resisted starting every drama and so I've not skipped/felt so disappointed in a drama that I couldn't drop in a while ;)
I'll describe this drama as this "image a writer built a whole world and it's characters, but they didn't know how to move them around that world so the characters just keep walking into the wall. over and over and over again"..
basically they have 1 plot point "the fl's 'destiny' is her step father -gasp- what will they do in this 'fake forbidden love'?" and that's it.. like no one even cared he was her "step father" mostly because no one believed it, but they probably didn't want to highlight it in a way that people would start to get disturbed by it. agh, seriously though, that was such an empty plot move.. then they kept throwing random hurdles at them that it was not funny anymore.. they should've focused on WDH's character instead....
oh yeah, and every side character was plain useless and a time waster.. and everyone was just stupid...

some of my favorite quotes:
baek kyung "even when you are your stage self I still fell lonely"
baek kyung "wishing to keep you by my side knowing that you weren't yourself makes me a monster"!
dried squid "since we don't have much time left, I'll be allowed to sped time with you right?"
dried squid "it's impossible to pretend not to know you"!!!!!!!!!!!
danoh "I hope you can find your real you"

there's more, but I'm crying right now so I can't remember ;(
it was heartbreaking to see baekkyung like that, but I'll take that as his "growth" and I'll be happy with it, but like don't "kill/put them to sleep/make them disappear when the drama ends.. every writer just needs to always write "to be continued" and let the characters live their life away from the stage ;(

I think this was the best ep yet, everything is going as I hoped, and feared... even though the side characters deserved more screen time, I'm glad, I feel like everyone had their time to shine. even webtoon joda and danho ;)
I'm really scared of what's to come though...

I stole baby satooo's gif xD why didn't I think of it sooner, he's the cutest❤❤

I really didn't expect that I'd cry while watching this, but like I'm crying with a smile on my face? xD

I wish this was longer ;p like their Halloween ep was cute with their korean mythical creature references, or their "foreign" names, and that opera scene xD though they are easier for people to catch the meanings there ;p

also, they are doing a spin off later in Dec! though it might be more of a webdrama kind of a thing? the synopsis sounds hilarious though xD

Ikr! His character needs a comeback ;(

I love how this drama doesn't take itself seriously, it just make their parodies so much better xD
but they also balanced it out well with their heartbreaking/heartwarming scenes in the newest eps. it's definitely one of the best 2019 dramas.

I know most of those parodies because of variety shows, but there were times when I was confused, so thank you for this, it was super helpful and fun❤

like, when he was shocked to see what happened while he was obsessed with his revenge was beautiful, or when he went to find sunho (in that scene they looked like start crossed lovers xD), BUT like, now he wants to pretend that has nothing to do with him, and he just wants to live happily? and how is what Bang Won did "right"? so many people, innocents, are dying because of the king and he's son, I prefer to side with sunho in his stance of standing with no one? I think that's his mission now? I don't get politics xD

Sun Ho and Hee Jae's right hand men deserve recognition~ these types of characters in historicals are really so fascinating, their loyalty is admirable ;) Hwang Sung Rok and Gyeol❤

the scenes between Nam Sun Ho and Lee Bang Won was beautiful, they are such charismatic actors, I hope they act together again..

I like to pretend hwi doesn't exist anymore ;)

As a germaphobic I'm surprised with heechul.. to me ordering food seems worse than cooking at home, like he could just use air fresheners...
especially seeing how he reacted with the gloves and face mask when his hyung cooked.. like he doesn't know if any restaurant actually keeps that hygiene thing up.. atleast with home cooking you can see what goes in :)

what Dong Joo said this ep brought back her "great fl" title.. "I shouldn't have wasted my life on a beast like you. you're not even worth killing. I can't believe I hurt him for a man like you"...

that was actually well played, I forgive them for last week, though I just really need everything so I can finish this in peace... maybe I should keep tomorrow's ep for next week...

and as Jang Dong Yoon said in the bts, we need more lovey dovy moments, not this much heartache..

this drama is unexpectedly heartwarming, I cried so much this ep ;(
also, that was one of the best ppl I've ever seen xD

so what, netflix contacted jtbc and was like "we are worried you might kill our favorite oppa WDH, so we'll only get 12eps and wait to see how it's over before getting the rest?"
seriously who buys 75% of the drama when the whole thing is complete and ready? if they are acting this way, they should just leave kdramas to other subbers that'll release everything ;/

like, if they release every ep for most of their shows in the same day, they shouldn't not release everything after they started it...

I can only find some clips on Lululala Music's youtube channel which is better than nothing

so I only found a fan subbed vr for suju's ep, and the rest you can download this app Olleh TV Mobile App.
also you can visit Lululala Music's youtube channel for the clips

I'm not a fan of Joo Won but I'll watch this for Kim Hee Sun❤
