Yes girl! Put him in his place (even if you’re doing it for his sake). The honour and status and royalty he has is not as shiny as it seems. It’s always under attack and frankly, a source of constant chicanery and nefariousness around him. He’s lost his pathetic brother to this very same status.
You built your status, wealth and power through intelligence and hard work. Cut your losses and don’t take shit from nobody who’s never worked a day in their life and is enjoying the fruits of “inherited privilege”
(Yes, I’m a staunch proponent of republicanism and meritocracy. And have a deep seated hate for all systems that promote hereditary privilege, be it monarchy, feudalism or any other ideology that breeds unearned privilege based on arbitrary constructs. Damn! My politics bled into this puff piece viewing 😂😂😂😂😂)
Anyone who wants to attempt, just even try to attempt writing a work of fiction where there is plotting and scheming and chicanery, I must stress, please read some critical classical works and if that’s too much, then at least read the very brief but powerful The Art of War by Sun Tzu and The Prince by Nicolo Machiavelli. It will give depth to writing about the nefariousness of unbridled human ambition. It’s not about who’s right or wrong. It’s about what ambition, revenge and / or greed does to human nature and how to harness the dark powers of ambition and use them to your advantage.
Having said that, I have this inkling that the contest prize winner writer of this show is like that child king. Snivelling and snotting all over the mess of a story that she’s written that’s aching to be something that it’s not.
lol both the ML and FL keep confessing their feelings for each other to the catholic prime minister like it’s a confessional 😂 and not doing that in their many 1:1s 😏 brilliance of competition writing 😆🤡
Is the prince just gonna huff and puff and not throw the whole bunch of conspirators into disarray?! Like dude you’re sitting on evidence. Make your damn move. Step on the baby king if you have to. Why are we wasting my damn time huffing and puffing here?!!
I'm not a big fan of Gong Myung, but I don't see anyone more suitable for this role than him.
I did explain the correlation. But you missed it, or perhaps it missed you. So I will spell it out for you now in plain English:
People from third-world countries have a very simplistic and unrefined approach to other people's opinions. Countries where democratic values are still in that under-a-century infancy, tend to exhibit this antagonism (that you are displaying) towards opinions where they start throwing their toys out of the crib in an infantile tantrum as soon as they come across an opinion or idea that is contrary to their held beliefs/opinions. They take it personally, they resort to discourteous discourse, almost frothing at the mouth, even so far as saying "leave this space since you don't like it" or "your opinion is illogical" and "you must hail from this camp or that". And for dramatic effect, make wild assumptions about the opposition while white-knuckling through "my opinion is on your opinion that I don't agree with. But mine is logical and yours isn't". It's a very...third-world posturing.
So, as "someone who doesn't want their eyes to be accosted by my childish nonsense" and wanting to save yourself from "having to read unnecessary hogwash," you could choose to move on. Instead, you decided to do this dance of just driving your heels in while also patting yourself on the back on this ChatGPT-drafted rant. You can keep doing that dance. But it's not about you, nor for you.
No one here is proselytizing you to agree with them. It is not about you. Nor will it ever be.

You said you're "not sure what the correlation is between finding your opinion unnecessarily nasty and obviously biased and coming from a third-world country".
Well, let me tell you what the correlation is. Your engagement in reacting to an opinion on an open forum, you deem as "asinine", "whiny", "bitter", and "pointless", that was not directed at you. But you still decided to make it about yourself and the offence you took from it, to the extent that you became asinine and whiny and took it upon yourself to suggest that I should stop watching it, so "that would save us (you) from being tortured" by my opinion. Who the hell are you? What makes you think I will stop watching the show and sharing my opinions here at your behest? And what makes you think that your freedom to be whiny and asinine in your opinions supersedes mine? 🤡
As I said, evolve a little beyond your third-world country sensibilities, as that would save you from being bitterly tortured by someone’s opinion that is not about you nor for you. You reek of it, but since your olfactory fatigue has set in. You're neither able to see the correlation nor see the irony in your own bitter fulminations. Childish impulse, ain't it? 😂
Now to the groundless "assumptions" you have made (another tendency common in those from third world countries) that I "didn't want him (Gong Myung) to be the ML and were likely hoping he wouldn't be good at it." I never said that. I literally said, "Gong Myung is the most suitable to play this clownish male lead role". But I guess unsubstantiated assumptions, bordering on a narcissitic impulse to force your absurdities on others even in the face of declared viewpoints is what is common where you're from. 😂

Do you wake up in the morning thinking all 8 billion humans on the planet will agree with each other, most of all with you? Cos it sounds like you are from some third world country where having an opinion is a fault. Or a case of “bitterness” or personal animosity. 😂 just as no one is forcing me to subject myself to Gong Myung’s mediocrity, no one is forcing you to interact with my opinion. Or are you just bitter that it doesn’t agree with yours? Evolve a little. MDL is a democratic space. People will have opinions, strong and soft. Hot and cold. They are not in service of your attention. Evolve a little out of your third world country sensibilities as that would save you from being bitterly tortured by someone’s opinion. 🤡

I don’t disagree with the point that Gong Myung is the most suitable to play this clownish male lead role. I never insinuated that Kim Jaeuck should have had that role. What I did say was, Gong Myung is mid AF. The second lead is totally upstaging him with only his presence. Imagine if he had more depth and screen time to his character.

Kinda silly
Inappropriate and classless. 😒 why does she keep running her mouth like a medieval times nursemaid.
(Yes I’m having a meltdown😂)
I need that.
