Just an opinion from a recent 1st time The Heirs watcher…

After years of watching Kdramas, I finally decided to watch The Heirs.
Despite a lot of strong opinions for and against, it was a good drama.

When I watch older dramas I need to adjust to how women are treated. How they are spoken to and pulled around like dolls with respect to what they want or don’t. And like in the American TV show: Dallas, how a forced kiss can turn in to something the female just agrees to mid-kiss.

Maybe that actually happens, as fortune favors the bold. Still it’s not easy to accept for someone who believes in equality, respect, and equal rights for all.

My only real criticism for this show (except for the cliches and tropes) is that it should have been about college age young people. While the characters are at times immature and childish- the things they deal with seem much more adult than high schoolers, forget “being 18”. I think that just makes it easier for international viewers to accept some very adult situations.

Again it was an enjoyable watch, if you suspend reality for the 20 hours or so of the series. That said it was enough to keep me watching the entire 20 episodes over 3 days.

Enjoy and decide for yourself. This was just my take after watching. 😊
