I love historicals, but it annoys me when they depict a weak king who allows a single minister to rule the entire…
I'm curious, do you watch chinese historical dramas? if not I can recommend a couple because the Kings there do not play. Whilst historical Kdramas the King is just a pawn for other people
So I saw a clip of this show on TikTok, specifically a doctor treating a general and the actor who plays the general, Zhu Ya Wen, is so insane! I watched him in the Drama "Ming Dynasty." One of the best performances I've personally watched in a Cdrama, he embodied the grand vibe of an emperor; he was very commanding. I'm excited to watch this now, even though he just makes an appearance
Another thing I love about the Male lead is that being rich isn't his entire personality, he actually has one, and we didn't find out he was a cheabol till later on. H e has more going for him + Personality than being rich
coming here after so long bc I'm realising that perhaps, she didn't love yi san at all or all that much, and didn't…
This is one of my favourite shows but after watching it so many times, so many things didn't add up.
She said she wanted him for herself which doesn't make sense, he's a king and has to form alliances through marriage, she cannot give him anything politically.
I don't get what the fuss was about when he loved only her, he showed her so why did she feel like she was sharing his love with other people, a Harem is normal of the working class talk less of a King.
This show being a tragedy was just the writers because it really didn't need to be.
I get he was arrogant but he's a King, If he wasn't I would be so suprised lol.
I would say she loved him, and he gave her a chance to leave so not really about palace politics imo. I really never understood what she truly wanted tho
I think I was the only one who didn't know this man was a red flag at all; the characters were just complicated as well as the systems they were in. And the ending, I wish they reunited in the present day, I heard he planted 10,000 trees for her, and it's now a park, they could've met there in the present day, just a glance and it ends.
i feel like it's been such a weak year for romcoms and this is saving it, it's so much fun!!!!! i'm surprised…
Yes, and tbh I can justify why he threw it in the pool, he had this amazing time with this girl now he finds out she's married with a kid, possibly turning him into a home wrecker, now she's acting like what she did wasn't a big deal, (we empathize with her because we see the other side but he doesn't)
There are also hints that his dad, whom he hates, cheated on his mum, putting her in the position she is now; his dad is forcing him to work; his sister is a witch, and there's a woman gaslighting him. This man is STRESSED.
Not saying Darim isn't going through it too, but he doesn't see any of that.
We have a great show in our hands, so let's not ruin this, please. We really need to do better at unpacking these characters and understanding both sides if not , KDramas are going to lose Quality if they only give us loser male green flag leads. And then people complaining why she doesn't just tell him the truth, let's bffr rn please
ALSO, DID WE FORGET THE BUSINESS PROPOSAL WHEN HE MADE HER DO SO MUCH WORK AND WORKED HER TO THE BONE? I don't remember anyone complaining then
This is why we don't get good things, so much discourse over the ML or FL, this is also why we don't get complicated characters (not saying these are) because people don't want to understand both sides and why they do what they do. I don't really watch K-drama thrillers, so aside from them, I've noticed a lack of complicated male characters these days; everyone just wants a green flag ML, with no faults, like the perfect robot man with no human emotions, or reaction to things that hurt them.
You guys complain about everything lol if it’s 12 episodes you’ll say I wish it was 16 episodes 🤦♀️
Honestly, everyone always has so much to say, they haven't explore his mom, her sister and her husband, the second leads, the mothers on the team and their families. The creators know why it's 14 eps
I feel like people are complaining that he hasn't found out yet because they have to wait for the next episodes, but I personally love the pacing so far, Imagine he found out this week, then they have their lovey dovey era next week, then what?? y'know?
I know she’s lying but he’s acting like a big baby and being a total a$$ to her. I don’t like that. At least…
I get what you mean but that’s because you see her POV, and her struggles. She lies to him and she acts like it’s nothing and what she did wasn’t a huge deal (his pov)
I didn't know Jang Ki Yong could be this funny and unhinged, also somehow cute at the same time
That’s what made me watch atypical family, I saw the press con fence on tik tok and he was so excited and silly, as well as hyeris YouTube as a guest. Do I knew he could pull this off EASILY
