Its getting review bombed for mentioning Iraq I think, similar to how When the phone rings got review bombed for their mention of Palestine and Israel just with different names
Damn I didn't even notice that, crazy work. I just know it had a budget of like 20 billion won, same as Vincenzo I saw an article said, and yet Vincenzo way better in every aspect. Idk where the budget went to in this besides the cast.
All I can say is Ma dong Seok and Park Hyung Sik probably got paid a boat load of money to sign on to this show even after reading the script. How they get one of Korea's biggest movie stars and the highest paid tv actor in Korea to star in this, I have no idea. 20 billion won budget, same as Vincenzo, and yet besides the cast, everything else looked low budget.
I love that this is giving vibes like the cdrama Reset, just with a lot more action and a seemingly smarter/more powerful opponent thats also knows about the time loop, really excited for this
Yeah its all good i agree with you on that... i also dont like it, but we also discuss all that for new viewers...…
This is actually very common, especially when it comes to actors/actresses with large fanbases and therefore, also a lot of haters. Legend of the female general, the ML and FL, don't have that large a fan base yet. In China also, they aren't considered that popular yet. No hate to either, I really like them both, just saying they're not that popular yet. Same with shows like coroners diary, good show that kept a high rating throughout and saw no mass downvotes as the actors themselves aren't that crazy popular. But with this drama and CY, also you see them with Xu Kai's drama's, As beautiful as you was downvoted to below a 7, like a 6.9 before going up. Also happens with some other actors and actresses. It's unfortunate, both toxic fan supporters and toxic haters just hurting each other.

Yunhe and kuyun post the daily viewership numbers every day, if interested on x this account posts the official charts daily https://x.com/cdramacharts
I think if there is quite a bit of disillusioned feedbacks it's because people had high expectations for the match…
Fair enough comment, I hope others don't attack you for it. Some people have to realize, just because you don't like a drama doesn't make you a hater. No drama is perfect and just because someone else might love a drama doesn't mean everyone else will. People can criticize a drama without being a hater, thats what the comments are for, discussion, not just blindness praise or also blindness hate. Everyone can have their opinion, just be respectful like your comment is.
Btw just for those interested, Journey of Legend set another 2025 record with 28m premiere views on yunhe, the highest among all 2025 dramas. Debuted #1 on Yunhe and Kuyun daily charts. For those that don't know, yunhe is one of the most used and trusted measures of a shows success in China (alongside heat index and advertisement numbers), as it demonstrates the daily views a show gets, among other things, which is pretty much all that the producers, actors, studios etc care about mainly (alongside a couple other measures of course).
Popularity on social media and stuff is great, but at the end of the day in China, the studios and actors etc mainly care about the viewership, heat and advertisements, when it comes to measuring a shows success. Obviously, still a long way to go, but this is a very impressive debut, as it has already set a number of 2025 records, and hope it continues.
I know people say don't worry about data and stuff, but I find it interesting. It doesn't affect whether I am going to watch a drama or not, for instance twelve letters didn't have great numbers but I absolutely loved it. So I'll watch a drama regardless of its data, but I just find looking at the data interesting and letting people know for those that are also interested.
A lot of people don't like it as much after ep 10/11 because it moves on from Jelly Lin and Cheng Lei, their characters…
The CCP or communists are annoying sometimes, also more annoying support characters like sister in laws and stuff. But I liked how the romance developed. Not as good as the first arc, but gets better as it goes, all just depends on how annoying you find the communists and some of the annoying supporters characters like Qing. The first arc was good cause it had minimal annoying support characters. The story is not bad, just more communist/political involvement and the romance story is not as simple as the first arc because of annoying in laws and stuff. The FL for the second arc has a tougher time with less support.
I'm watching ep 7 and find the story very captivating. Why the rating is so low, does it get so much worse later?
A lot of people don't like it as much after ep 10/11 because it moves on from Jelly Lin and Cheng Lei, their characters are done after ep 10/11. Personally, I wish we got to see more of them, their relationship and storyline was so good.
Such a good show, watched it when express released a week ago and slowly watched the rating go up from under an 8, to 8.8. Wish tencent gave it more promotion, great story line and superb acting, honestly my favorite drama of the year. I was not expecting the show to be as heavy and emotional as it was, while also being so heartwarming at times. Was unsure about the time travel element but it was executed well and did not overshadow the overall story. Also, lets be real, most of us are here for the ML and FL, so as far as I'm concerned we got a happy ending, sorry Sheng Cheng (even though it hinted he was still around so all good).
It was finally on viki in full so I finished watching this and what a 100 % drama!! I do agree with you that I…
Hahaha happy you enjoyed it too! Thanks for joining me in recommending it, truly an unexpected really good cdrama. For those that haven't watched it hard to explain the twists but like we both said, I thinks it's no break up.
