Yeah. I liked their first interactions then it just went downhill from there. A bunch of subplots and supporting characters that I could not care less about taking screen time.

Exactly. Although it was not my cup of tea, I watched it because of those same reasons you mentioned while this one felt like a chore I had to finish, I kept putting it on hold and skipping scenes.

I already did. I was talking about how there is no preview at the end of the episodes. How I wish there was but at the same time it would only make it harder to wait a full week for new episodes.

I don't know why I even gave this a chance (or maybe I do - for the cast?) when I did not even like Love in Pavilion that much. The plot is just not my cup of tea with too many supporting characters and annoying subplots. It felt almost like re-watching the previous one...but worse. Even the ending is as disappointing. I guess this type of drama is just not for me.

Ugh, no preview. Not sure if that is good or bad.

I kinda want a sneak peek at the next episodes but it would also make me want to watch it right away when I know I would have to wait another week to watch. ^^'

Admitting I'm wrong about what exactly? I think you just want me to admit you are right.

"Why you acting like you didn't think it was the whole plot"
That is just your assumption. I have been watching kdramas for 15 years so I was making a guess based on my experience watching kdramas + what was revealed by the summary. You just assumed that I meant that was the whole plot, I never said it was. I even admitted it was just the plot setup in my first reply to you. Did you even read it?

You made out whatever you wanted out of my initial and following comments and accused me of making people stay away from this drama, which I did not. You just kept picking at my words and making it seem like I was saying something I wasn't.

My first comment was simply a guess, that turned out to be right and that is revealed right away so it is not even a spoiler. You made this whole thing bigger than it needed to be. I also can't with people like you that go around picking at other people's words so let's do each other a favor and stop it here like you said.

She definitely was no saint but I feel like her character for most of the late half was better than they initially made her out to be. I definitely saw her as someone as bad if not worse than her brother but later on she helped the FL out of prison, decided to leave on her own and did not want to get involved in her brother's mess anymore. Also, when the ML made it clear he did not love her, she gave up on trying to rape him, while the other guy who raped...AND made her pregnant, I am sure she told him no many times and he did not care.

And at the end of the day, no matter what, no one, even the most evil person, deserves to be raped. So yes, by the end I did feel sorry for her.

My assumption was right so...how is it misinformation? Plus, I very clearly stated 2 things in my first comment:
1st - I had not started watching it yet;
2nd - I was GUESSING.

This made it easy to understand for anyone reading that I was not making a statement, it was just my opinion and a guess based on the summary.

Also, if you read the other person's comment, that person clearly said this guess was going around on social media, so it was not my comment that stopped them from watching. They said they would wait for the drama to finish not that they would not watch at all, much less because of my comment. And finally, if you read my reply, I end by saying they should still give it a try so you saying I'm stopping anyone from watching because of my comment is unfair to say the least.

So...my guess is not really a spoiler, we know her identity from episode 1 but if you do not want something like a destined love kind of thing, then this really is not for you, the whole premise is that they are destined for each other. ^^'
With that said, I don't think there will be reincarnations and stuff like that for their story particularly so maybe still give it a try, specially if you are a Se Jeong fan like me.

I never said I wouldn't watch it, it was just a guess before I did. I just finished watching the first 2 episodes. What I meant is that the summary is giving away so much that I was able to guess as much. Tho, it really is just a setup like you said since her real identity is revealed to us pretty much right away. I will keep watching, hopefully I will be surprised by other plot devices, like the Left Minister's daughter, she seems like a sencond FL that will surprise me, not cliché at all.

I have not even started watching but just from the summary I'm just going to guess the she IS the crown princess and does not just look like her. Because the whole amnesia + looking exactly like her + it happens to be with her that the sould exchange happens...seems quite predictable.

She also starred in a short drama that came out recently. A pretty good one for a short drama, but it is not historical. I'm leaving the link here in case you want to check it out:

Started well but lost me at some point. The writing is not good enough. The way her character and some other characters were written made them not convincing. Also, romance should not even be a genre, maybe a tag (slight romance), it is there but it is overshadowed by everything else that is going on.

The idea was good and this could have been a great drama with some good plot and character writing but that did not happen so this is yet another kdrama from recent years that goes to the average pile.

This was so disappointing that by the end my only though was: I feel bad for the Empress. Which is something I never thought would happen after watching just the first few episodes. ^^'

Exactly. And we knew nothing about these people and their relationships so we could not care less if one of them died.

I have watched other series that go back between past and present while telling the story but they were able to keep me interested and had less characters so it was easier to connect with them but here we are just shown a bunch of people we know nothing about running from zombies that just happened to exist. I mean...who are the main characters? Is he her boyfriend...wait , are they not dating anymore? Oh, so I guess that one is her brother. And about this other person...a friend? Where did the zombies come from?

A lot of the time I just felt like someone who arrived late to a meeting and had no idea what is currently being discussed and how they got there. ^^'

I do not understand why so many people said this was good. I mean, it is watchable but it has way too much going on.

Usually the group of survivors is smaller. There are so many characters that you feel lost as to who is who and what they are to each other. Since their backstories are not given from the start, for a while you are lost as to who they are and it is hard to connect to the characters.

Also, why are there so many guys? In one scene there is like 1 girl and 10 guys and in many others there are only guys. I am not sure if they were trying to appeal to the BL public considering many of the actors are usually in BLs or if they just think girls are dumber so there are less female survivors. Making them yell while running knowing it gets the zombies attention. SMH

I usually like almost anything with zombies, thrillers, survival kind of stuff but this one was pretty boring for me, I just did not like the characters. In other series there will be characters I like, characters I hate, here I feel nothing, they could all be dead by the end and I would not care.

I mean, it is not bad but I am having a hard time taking it seriously when the drama does not take itself seriously to begin with. I smiled at one or two scenes but comedy in dramas is something that has to be on point and not overdone for me to enjoy it.

I have watched 4 episodes so far and I can't really connect to the story or characters because everything feels like a joke, literally. ^^'

Will give it a few more episodes. Maybe I will get used to it.

Don´t waste your time. This is quite boring and the FL is unlikable. If the roles were reversed and it was a man doing what she is doing to women, then everyone would be destroying this. Let's not have double standards and think what the FL is doing is acceptable.

First of all, I'm sorry that you went through that.

And yes, without spoiling much, there is justice served here BUT the road to it is very bumpy. Most of the drama is seeing the FL dealing with the trauma and being victimized over and over again. If you think you can handle that part then yes...there is justice at the end.

Not a drama I would say I enjoyed watching but definitely one that accurately portrayed a sexual assault case and everything the victim has to go through.

Not something I would recommend to someone who has been a victim of sexual abuse tho. I imagine it would be triggering.
