This Show is a joke

one ep in : this show is actually not serious at all.
two eps in : total clownery, should I drop it?
three eps in : okay I am giving it another chance.
first scene in ep four : okay bye I can't tolerate this. what a time waste.

This show is so unserious.
I had delayed watching Moon lovers and decided that I can't watch it because I knew the actors and felt like I can't deal with a big age gape romance story.
but when I started it, this became my least concers for how I ended up dropping it for a whole different reason.
and I can't understand, I didn't find anyone who shares my views on this even the negative reviews are for different reasons, pacing and whatever.

I am sorry but the so supposed dramatic scenes in the first two episodes had me laughing because of how forced and cringy they were.
it was annoyingly embarrassing.
i decided to give it a chance and watched another episode.
and then started the fourth with the "dramatic" scene between the fourth prince and his mother,
which was the most unserious scene for now.

I read some reviews on Reddit where they said if you don't feel interested after 5 episodes drop it and the story becomes serious in episode 4.
they described the first 3episodes to be more of a comedy, I agree but in another sense, they're so inserious like I just can't take this show seriously I tried but I can't, I feel so detached, the characters reactions and the way they process of their feelings feel so inhuman and ughh it's just bad.
I can't feel like they're actually feeling what they're talking about.I know teen Wattpad stories and so typical manhwas with better writing level.
WTH is this!!

so short story long Moon Lovers is basically one of these typical Victorian manhwas where the FL reincarnates and doesn't know how to act normal and so the princes think Omg she is so DiFfReAnT and fall for her plus it's reverse Harem.
and we got the damn so cold mysterious jerk misunderstood mistreated blah blah ML and he and the heroine are gonna have this enemies to lovers story and I assume she might fix him.
idk what to say else the drama is so unserious I just can't 💀💀 how was this show filmed and how did people watch it?
Flower of evil is my first Lee Joon-gi drama and OMG the difference!! ML did him so dirty this pathetic role is such an insult I can't keep watching him play it.

⭐/10
My rating was random I don't really like rating dramas I didn't finish but it's required to post the review, but three eps where enough to make me mark off 3 stars -3 so and That's only because of how cringy it felt, with a plot like this the top this drama can get it 5.

btw, I don't understand why the second male lead have to be married. sorry but I can't romanticize cheating so I can't feel anything between the two.
i Liked the 8th prince like he is completely my type but everytime there's an intended romantic scene between him and the FL I feel disgusted.
I don't see the point. love triangles are supposed to make you feel confused btw the two MLs. this one doesn't.
