If anyone else is an absolute wuss with horror films like me (and Sang Yan), trigger warning for episode 9 when they watch the same horror film twice. I hate jump scares đ”âđ« had to watch the scenes with my eyes half closed to read subtitles and still got scared!
This was super easy to watch. I love a drama where everything is resolved so quickly. The emperor here made me miss the supportive emperor from Love Like The Galaxy.
Genuinely surprises me that it took me an entire month to watch this. I adore all three lead actors, especially Wang Duo, but while I appreciate a happy (but abrupt) ending, the storyâs pacing was off.
Also, I just went over to the discussion section to see a novel excerpt where they had kids and lots of (ahem) skinship. I feel robbed! Give me some time with them living their happily ever after ;-;
Feels like weâre âholding spaceâ for season 3. I know Gi Hun isnât innately that smart but he seemed extra dumb this season. Maybe season 3 will improve on the series but as of now, season 2 greatly lacks the momentum and high stakes feel of the first season.
If I had a nickel for every time Bai Lu loved a man but still stabbed him anyway, Iâd have at least 3 nickels - which isnât much but itâs funny how it happened 3 times. (Moonlight Mystique, Till the End of the Moon, Story of Kunning Palace)
This drama had so much potential but the last few episodes were just disappointing. The storyline really took a nosedive and the noble idiocy plot took over. A man points a gun at you while youâre in the car and you choose to get out of the car and talk to him at gunpoint rather than just run him over? Your psychopathic son is locked up and you want to let him out so you can have a chat with a shotgun? Then surprise Pikachu face when youâre the one whoâs shot? You feel guilty that the father who never raised you or even named you was responsible for your wifeâs car accident 20 years ago so you run away to a foreign country in the middle of a war because the pretty sunsets there remind you of her slapped cheek? Utter nonsense. I watched in 1.5x speed and still ended up skipping through. 7.5/10 for the initial enjoyment I had.
I really enjoyed it! I adored Zhang Wan Yi when he was suffering in Lost You Forever so to see him play such a happy-go-lucky cutie in love is quite lovely. The main couple has so much chemistry and the comedic moments cannot be underestimated. Got a little too politically heavy for me at times but I powered through to get the fluffy romance bits. 8.5/10 for me!
I tried watching this drama a few years ago and couldnât get into it. Something in me decided to give it another try and while I finished this first season, Iâm not really itching to watch the second season. I enjoy medical dramas but this one was too slow for my liking. I get that itâs slice of life and honestly, I shouldâve known I wouldnât like it much. I still finished it but that was only on x1.5 speed and with some fast forwarding. The friendships are heartwarming and I did like the characters but the story failed to capture me plus it was too many doctor / patient stories to follow at once and they were really short. 7.5/10 for me
The first few episodes - hooked, couldnât take my eyes away. The last 10 episodes - fast forwarding, Iâm over it. Itâs a talented cast but the story unfortunately was lackluster. General Yin deserved better, a wasted character.
I love seeing bad guys suffer the consequences of their evil actions. Park Shin Hye really surprised me by how well she exemplified a demon. Enjoyed this a lot, was a good binge! Couldnât help but find Youâre Beautiful similarities - like seeing Go Mi Nam reunite with Manager Ma and how Gabriel looked a little like Jeremy lol Also, every time Bael showed up, I squealed. I love his deep voice. Thatâs MY Spider-Man â€ïž
The beginning was very bingeable but it really slowed for me once he figured out the truth. The ending was really dragged out too. However the twist at the end was very intriguing! Are they going to do a second season?
