Please Come Into My Heart

Enjoyable vertical drama, with class acting

I came across this program through social media recommendations, and after watching it, I can definitely see why it’s getting so much praise. The acting was outstanding, and the chemistry between the lead characters really stood out. The storyline kept me engaged from start to finish, with no dull moments whatsoever.

The program runs just under three hours, but it flies by thanks to the compelling plot and performances.

The only downside for me was the vertical screen format, which I found a bit off putting . However, I understand it was designed with mobile viewing in mind, so I can overlook that.

Overall, it’s something I’d definitely consider rewatching in the future.

Entertaining romp about a modern girl with modern morals

Set up the typical tale of a general with a marriage of convenience who comes back from the border with a new wife. The scheming concubine, the interfering empress, the doting dad with (another) scheming wife and spoiled daughter, the prince who wants to usurp the throne, along with some sort of weird parasite that needs blood and you probably have a typical C-drama.

BUT now add in a thoroughly modern girl who continues being modern throughout and you have a lot of hilarity and some steamy scenes. Steam is pretty steamy between our emperor and modern girl who end up breaking a bathtub! For that alone its worth a re-watch.

Threatened by the emperor she bends the knee and begs but with a wink of "well, I've done this before at my PR job so one more time won't hurt." The thing is the emperor plays it all with straight which makes their scenes even more funny. Like when she sets off the signal flare and the entire army mobilizes (ROFLMAO).

Does she care her husband brought in a new wife? That's a big nope. She'd much rather have the new wife become star wife so she can get her divorce. If the new wife had just played along with her, everyone would have a happy ending but schemers must scheme.

Most of the costumes are ridiculous. The FL's headgear is almost as tall as the Pope's LOL and I swear it gets bigger each time I see it. It's like a cake topper of a Bridezilla's wedding cake! With the guy's outfits you know the costumer said they all needed MORE BRAID!!

Sets are limited. Music almost non-existent. The eps are very short and chopped up so continuity sometimes suffers. The plot hole that he has other wives and concubines is never really dealt with.

Shout out to the Emperor's eunuch who plays matchmaker and enjoys seeing his master happy.

The only place I found it was on YT on Daily Motion and even then you have to keep searching to find the subtitles. And the English subs are BAD! Like you'll grimace reading how bad the translations are.
