The Epoch of Miyu : One of 2026's best mature urban romances so far

🎬 Quick Take
🔹 At the time of this review, 22 of 38 episodes have been released.
🔹 I usually rate dramas based on three things: writing, directing, and acting.
🔹 By Episode 22, this one is delivering in all three areas for me. Current score: 9.5/10.
🔹 Best advice: try the first couple of episodes and see if it clicks for you.

🌸 How It Felt Watching

Only worth watching if you love the Cast

For me I love actress Zhu Zhu. And even though the story frustrates me every episode of nasty characters with too much screen time, I continue to watch for her. This is the typical C-Drama where the negatives outweighs the positives so I'll start with the short list of positives:

Worth watching Parts:
1. Zhu Zhu .... I mean isn't she just one of the most beautiful, refined actress in decades?
2. 2nd ML. You know he played a nasty ex husband in Filter? Now he plays a charming 2nd ML who hardly gets ANY screen time. He nails both characters! Only in ep 24 do you see some sweetness.
3. Few good supporting characters: (again NOT enough screen time) The cook bestie, the ML's finance guy.

Now for the Rants.... skip this if you are easily offended

1. Too many nasty characters with overboard screen time. That really needed to be cut down by 50%. I would rather watch more interaction w/ the 2nd ML but nope. It's always drama central w/ repetitive gossips and backstabbing.
2. Even by ep 24, she's a manager now, still with no real power.
3. ML - still not likeable. Script issue. Clearly Ep 25 2ML is that much more mature.
4. ML/FL chemistry, none IMO. All the way through the end.
5. Very repetitive theme over and over again. She gets into a new department, there's always someone trying to backstab her and she succeeds in the end.
