It’s funny that the review that mentioned that this was basically a Joseon Shopping King Louie is what made…
Well in the end, they're still different dramas. In my case, it didn't remind me of SKL at all despite them both having the same female lead. People have different tastes. I skipped through SKL so much because I had a hard time liking the male lead's character. I believe that SKL was definitely meant to be more comedic and light-hearted than this. Again, different dramas and different tastes.
Nice endings like these are UNDERRATED. I say dramas are meant to make myself happy and take a pause from reality. Thoroughly enjoyed this drama and the way it tied everything up nicely + I could always use more light-hearted Joseon dramas like these. Taking a break from heavy and complicated politics for once.
How tf did the ending suck so bad- i'm so conflicted on what score to give it. I did love it pretty much the whole way but the ending was unforgivably rushed. Where did the other characters that sacrificed so much end up?? It was a "what just happened??" moment. Complete utter bullshit of an ending ugh. Endings can either make my ratings soar or plunder and for this show, it just angered me a lot. Fuck load of time wasted. Can't help but give it above 6 for the rest of the show but for the number of eps that this was given, the ending was ridiculously rushed. It really needed at least one more episode to wrap things up nicely. Like giving Xiao Qi a funeral?? How did she even survive and at the same time conceal FEiwhateverhisnameis?? I'm so frustrated.
