Okay i take 70% of the force of my previous comment back. What's wrong with Jet? Why she's to communicate her anger like a chimp? Is she secretly George of the jungle?!
This has the common tropes like horny dad but dad's like treating Jet like a jerk but then also behind her back ordering his squire dude (or whatever capacity he is around him) to start a vengeance cycle with the guys who attacked his daughter. Is he secretly a misunderstood male lead?!
So, after some delay due to hesitations I finally just jumped into this apparent dumpster fire. 7 mins in and Jetiya kicked her stepmon into the pool. I mean I live for these over-the-top theatricals of Lakorns. SO fun!
Why is it called Divided heart? Is it the heart of Nun? Or Jo? Or Jay and Joe's dad? Or all of these?
This Lakorn is offensive on another level. i know this statement is an oxymoron. I mean it's a Lakorn. But it is offensive even for a lakorn. In a subtle not too explicit way. Maybe so can be missed or have the advantage of subjectivity.
1) When i see a story with a typical Lakorn beauty and the beast trope where the nagek gets kidnapped, tortured and raped by the praek while in the process falling in love with him and as a consequence changing him from a beast (cos humans can't do what I just said, only beasts can) to a man proper, I call it the writer's distorted view of disturbing relationship as romance.
2) When i see a praek slutshaming a nagek on even a mere "hi" exchange with a 13 yr old boy while the said praek has been trumpeting around like it's his bread and butter, I call it a genre of writing or a cultural pov.
3) When i see a female character called out implicitly and explicitly by herself and by other characters as "not pure/innocent" "not a better choice over a certain other innocent, naïve and pure girl even for a lecher casanova". in every other scene when she hasn't been even shown close to sleeping with 2 dudes at the same time, I call it a writer injecting his personal misogynistic and "a way of thinking that should not have ever existed" view into the script.
4) When I see a nagek who is declared and campaigned as innocent, naive, "pure", completely so much so that she trembles and shies away from any kind of physical affection showing and the praek needs taking permission to kiss her on the cheek (first time in any lakorn ever though this was obv accidental since this writer will never understand consent and probably wanted to show the end to end encryption of Lukhwa's virginity) sleeping (not that sleeping) with the praek whom she had a crush on for a long time in the same room (cos she trusts him) in a scanty neglige (cos she doesn't know how this is completely out of her so far shown character and dressing choices in other times except when she parties) and the praek who's also the earlier mentioned lecher Casanova leches and drools on her while she's sleeping (honestly, would've preferred an erection which can be involuntary and just a natural and biological reaction sometimes and doesn't present one's character, mik's worst role) and they go on to have a romantic relationship, I call it the writer's mind is a stinky gutter.
I don't expect Lakorns to be logical or respectful towards women or logical but why i love them is because of their over the top entertainment. This one was a snooze fest. The finding whodunnit and revenge-taking was boring the romance was boring. the only interesting story was Nun's though horrifyingly tragic. Her fiancé got murdered, she got raped and killed because she was not a "pure" girl. The decent guy and the interesting girl got killed and the boring girl and potential rapist got a happy ending with each other. Not even complaining about that. The love story was as interesting as watching a page load in a slow internet connection.
If you must be a dick, at least be entertaining.
p.s. not a thisa fan. dont remember even seeing her in anything before. only here for Mik.
Can I just say I just so effing love the Goddess version of orchid. It's so sad that we only get 4 episodes of her. She's so cool and mature and strong in her cold and serious avatar. i think this part of the story could've been a few episodes more. I'd've liked that.
Episode 26: Instead of saying what he said Cheng Heng should have said to his brother, 'I thought you were my big bro but i now realized u r nothing but a monster d!ck head 🤬🤬🤬".
I always thought Devils or demons whatever they are named are always the victims of the superiority-complexed gods who think they are all that and need to keep everyone else subservient. Be damned, aholes!
From what I understood, only by getting some kind of life force from XLH's body can he revive Chidi.
I am only at episode 13 but i am spoiler crazy so i keep reading comments and watching yt videos and from one of the yt clip i got that orchid's blood can revive the dead because she's goddess of xishan. That's why i think that dude wants her to bleed her to revive chidi.
I'm assuming you also don't like Yunzong 😏😆. I don't think anybody likes him.
Lol. Honestly the dislike has yet to become as strong as the one for the tmopb and aol kings of gods and lad's daejun maybe because he's not as much present like them, it's there somewhere but. Let's see how intense it gets.
