aerum07 said Mai (Vietnamese sister-in-law ) could be a great source of help to Jini (FL) in fighting against Dohee (bully). I'm here for it! I'd enjoy seeing Soyeong outsmart and outplot the bully! Now that the two families are making amends, I want to see Jini fight Dohee and get justice for all the bullying and lying Dohee did.
I'm enjoying this drama. We're getting spectacular acting from Park Se Young and Han Go Eun. And I love the complex relationships and pain and flaws everyone has. The writing reminds me of scriptwriter Moon Young Nam and Kim Soo Hyun's works. But the two families hating, then forgiving, then hating, then forgiving each other is starting to get a little repetitive. It was really compelling in the beginning, and I know it's realistic to have love-hate relationships, but now it's getting predictable. I hope to see them become one family and helping each other during hard times.
Who are the scriptwriters of this drama? I'd love to know, since they obviously love kdramas and really know and understand kdrama fans and how to write romance. And obviously the whole drama team is also great, like the PD, casting director, designers, animators, editors, etc.
You guys, please spread the word about this drama in real life and online in the comments! It's so good and I want the people who made this to get rewarded, and for more people to enjoy it!
I get that Woogi is a simp for Heeju, but he's literally doing all the work. He should be getting 2/3 of the gold, if not more. Also, I have a feeling Woogi is going to die protecting Heeju :( Anyways, Kim Sung Cheol is the biggest beneficiary of this series. His character is the most likable and shines the brightest.
I love time travel dramas, and this one is not only well done, but also unique in that the FL is blatantly ambitious and even arrogant. I'm also glad the ML is not the king that ordered her death.
using another actress as a benchmark isn’t criticism, it’s just fandom doing made up math
They're both among my favorite actors. I always thought PBY was a good actor, so I'm surprised by the gap in skill level btw her and KGE. I never realized until now the difference.
I'm a Park Bo Young fan, but I gotta admit, she's no Kim Go Eun. I'm going to wait for her character's turning point, but I think this is the first time I've noticed her limits as an actor. It also doesn't help that the director and writer are both men who don't seem to know how to create complex female characters. The actor who plays Woogi is a pleasant surprise though.
I really like it so far. It's refreshing to see a crime thriller with a female lead. I'm so used to seeing dramas with this tone and genre with male leads.
Please don't tell me lks is again doing a crazy villain role..he looks like a parody of a villain in those roles
Is Gwangsoo a good actor? He seems to be in good projects, but his acting is hit or miss for me. It also feels exaggerated and over the top to me in this drama.
I just knew from reading that crazy description that this would be by the same scriptwriter who wrote Love (ft Marriage and Divorce) and Durian's Affair. I like both the director and scriptwriter, so I'm looking forward to this!
The beginning was typical, but as the show progresses, it's not typical at all imo. There's unexpected twists and plot points and it has a message about what's meaningful in life, and the beauty of humanity. I agree the show feels dated, but I'm watching bc Lomon is swoony in this role, and Kim Hyeyoon is a little cartoonish, but has the acting chops to pull it off. I'm also interested in seeing Lomon play in the 4th division.
In my opinion, the second male lead lacks presence. It's a shame bc the second female lead is promising. Anyways, I love Ahn Eun Jin! She adds so much reality and depth, and also adorableness to her character.
