I want to watch Speed and love. Based on the comments on its page i think I'll like the angst bc i have been craving for angsty loveships for some time. But i am hesitating to start because... Esther. She was once one of my faves, from my boyfriend is an alien 2 to fairy and devil to my journey to you. But then i realized she doesn't give variety in characters, she can, but she won't bc i think casting directors expect this certain type of acting from her -- pouty, infantile, baby voiced. I am not a fan of that for every character.
Why am i talking about Esther Yu and Speed and love on Dynamite kiss' page? No, i am not lost. Just trying to illustrate a point.
From Speed and love i know what to expect. Either it'll be a no surprise if my expectation is met or I'll be pleasantly surprised if Esther delivers a completely different style. Both are acceptable.
But with this drama, i was excited the moment I saw the trailer. Huge fan of Ahn eun jin and love Jang Ki yong. Was saving it for the Christmas weekend. But the moment the drama was 15 minutes in, i knew i am in for a 16th century damsel in distress of a tsunami proportion saved by a knight in rich, shining armor story type. Unexpected and don't like if not done interestingly. This is not done interestingly.
I mean she's so unfortunate that her misfortune thwarts her from existential functioning and her blighted fortune is rewarded by a black card holding big hearted fanboy. Take a trekking.
I am only on episode 5, will the show establish her luck to get this rich, hot savior as her true merit? I saw what she's capable of at work. But will that be important?
Every event of him rescuing her, written to build moments, is cliche and cringe. I love clichés when they are executed right. I don’t even care about plot when the moments between otp is swoon. I watched Devilish joy a million times. But it has to work. This isn't working. They have great chemistry but the moments aren't working. They'll be great as moments stiched together in a fmv, but the show isn't interesting or their story isn't giving me butterflies.
I was keeping up hope but when he saved her from the moneylender kidnappers using his black card and bridal carried her out of the warehouse, or garage whatever that place was, i felt like writing an essay and i am not happy about it. It's too much work and i am too lazy for it 😓
I am sooo excited to see my girl ji hyun in another saeguk. But at the same time can't with Ha Seok Jin constantly playing supporting characters. He's too talented for this.
Liked it a lot mostly because of the dance, acting and chemistry. The hardwork was evident and the sexual tension was palpable. Don't know why it's called 10 dance tho when they didn't show 10 dance. And i am not satisfied with the ending. Not because i naturally don't like open unclear endings but because suzuki felt used and chucked off by sugiki and that's the end.
From what i got from watching till episode 3 is crown prince doesn't care about anything other than his wife who…
The fighting well part makes sense. Otherwise he's so many times alone with the prince, threatening him. the prine could've kept a small dagger hidden and then when he's threatening him in his calm smug voice the prince just could've just stabbed him right through the neck.
From what i got from watching till episode 3 is crown prince doesn't care about anything other than his wife who he thinks is dead and he was ready to die following her. So what's stopping him to just off the left minister and then accept whatever happens. Is he not physically strong enough?
