• I wish the drama had eased me in. They just narrated the premise. I wish they would show me. They were in such a rush to get over the drama set up.
• The FL is shorter than her cousin. People should realize that this isn't the person they interacted with for a long time.
• I wish the drama looked different visually. 
• I am not drawn to the drama. Usually, I can't wait for new episodes to come out. On paper this I should be excited. I knew I gave it a fair chance, but I am sad to say nothing is hooking me into it.
• I don't think the actors are charismatic enough to play generals and to charm me into watching the drama.
• But I heard it got better in the comments, and those who stuck with it were excited for the upcoming episodes.

• I was really looking forward to it, because of the FL, her acting in I am Nobody made such an impression on me. She had such a unique vibe about her.
• But I am disappointed. 
  • IDK, if it's the actress, the writer, or the character who decided that she acts like a middle schooler.
  • The ML, look, I had so many expectations for this man, but so far.....
  • And maybe they are not used to the hand motions when using their powers, maybe it's because it is their first xian xia.
  • The drama, production quality look unpolished. And they have an obsession with dry ice or fog....
• I cannot follow the drama anymore. WTF is going on? 
• I feel like the conflict of the ML is similar to A Moment but Forever; the drama itself was hideous, much worse than this one, and that drama is acted and written better.
• I think the only selling point was that the FL was transported from the modern world to the xian xia world, and it was fun to see that.
• stopped at the time jump.

• This stuck my heart so much. Though not in the same experience and situation as the leads. I am not at the point of despair like the FL.  She is just constantly shut down by the world.
• And I think the leads look good together.
• 
  

• Why did they kiss in the second episode? Without any real development. As much as I love kiss scenes. I need to be invested in the relationship, but I also want to know why the characters were so drawn to each other; however, I don't think the drama handled it well.
• I wonder if they are this clumsy, why haven't they been caught? Like high schoolers discovered the drugs they hid.
• I love Lee Sang Yoon's cameo. He and Lee Bo Young have instant chemistry.
• I have to admit I had a hard time getting into the series, not because of the sensitive topic, but because of the reasons (you can say that I am nitpicking). But I finally warmed up to it by the teen's episode, and his final moments with his father brought me to tears.
• If the drama finds a balance between these episodic side stories and the main plotline and conflict, I would continue watching it

Status: Completed

• I was shocked that the person whom I thought was the wife wasn't the actual wife, but his main mistress.
• I wish the story were more character-focused. I felt like they tackled social issues that weren't relevant to the main storyline at all.
• I liked the main premise. Showed why and how people loved. And even though it's morally not right, I appreciated their honesty.
• Chris Wu, come on. He was so good.
• The main guy is just a user. He used the people who loved him or the idea of him.

Status: Completed

• Was the 4-episode extension necessary? IDK

Status: Completed (rewatched 2nd time)

• This was a rewatch.
• I think I got the drama much better in my second watch.
• I realised that there wasn't really a misunderstanding; they knew they loved each other, but both were playing a game, wanting the other to give in.
• Honestly, I thought I would never watch this again, but I was reminded of this drama while chatting with someone.
• My opinion still stands about the age difference.

Status: Completed

• The ML is working 3 jobs: a mob boss, a corporate executive, and a high school principal. And the FL is a high schooler who can deal with the mafia, an illegal arms dealer, and is capable of committing international cross-country crime.
• And it got ridiculous as it went on.
• All the female characters ended up having Stockholm syndrome in this drama.
• It was an ok watch, but honestly, I won't watch it again.
• Thank you to the person who recommended the drama to me. It was nice chatting with you!

Status: Completed

• I think the devil spirit that possessed the ML mom transferred to the ML as soon as he came back; his attitude was a complete 180. Even though he was being mean to her, it would be to this extent.
• And don’t like the ML attitude of harassing the FL as teasing. I like how the other characters call him out on it, though.
• I flinch every time the ML goes near the FL. I worry about what he is about to do to her. But the FL does stand up for herself from time to time, so it wasn’t as painful to watch.
• But I do think that keeping in mind the period that this drama was made, it was a trend at that time. And I do have a soft spot, as this is the type of drama I would consider a guilty pleasure.
• I do feel that the FL goes through extreme harassment and abuse, and the ML is crazy, but it wouldn’t have taken me on the torturous journey if it weren’t.
• And even though the ML mother was evil in the beginning, the actress did not play her as a one-dimensional evil mother. I still managed to see her mother as a human because of the acting.
• The most important thing was whether it was all worth it. The answer is YES! Everything was worth it for that proposal scene. I think the chemistry was so good.
• ps. I even signed up for a Russian platform to watch this drama, so if you see my information on the internet….

Status: Completed

• Right off the bat, this drama tells us that realistic logic is not a thing that exists. They will stretch the logic, or don't bother elaborating on it; we, as an audience, have to just accept the fact that it is the truth.
• I stuck to it because I wanted to know who this brilliant genius behind the scenes was. And the idea was good. But the logic of the drama was not good anyway, so.....
• Glad for the happy ending of the leads.
• If you are a fan of the actors, you can give this drama a try. But this was mid.

Status: Completed

• This wasn't bad; the comments section was flaming the ML. But he wasn't that bad.
• The chemistry was really good.
• But my surprise was the SFL, I saw her first in the Khun Chai series, and she was so sweet, and here she is evil.
• The announcement of the FL secret birth was so sudden. Her brother literally shouted to every stranger in that venue. It was so funny.

Status: Completed

• I loved the FL
• I also loved the enemy-to-lovers arc.
• The SML was cute, his love story... he made it almost messy, but he pulled through.
• The female antagonist, I wish they had gone on full comedy. The male antagonist is morally corrupt. 

Status: Completed

• I think the setup of this drama was the most tolerable out of all in the franchise.
• I really liked the chemistry.
• I loved how they built the romance.
• The CGI was ridiculous.
• This was the only series in which the sisters from the arranged marriage did not appear, which is why I liked it.
• And there was so much fat shaming and colorist lines, even thinking of the year it was made.

• I really love the pinch of romance dramas. ex Chinese drama My Treasure
• I love the FL. I know she was from I.O.I, but it is my first time seeing her act. And she feels like a rookie lawyer.
• I was looking forward to the weekend to come; I haven't had a Korean drama that excited me as much as this one.
• And I don't mind age gaps as long as there is chemistry, as long as one of the characters or actor in the pair is not a minor being paired up with an adult.  And they have it; it's subtle, but I like how they develop it. I'm not sure if they will be in a relationship when the series ends, but I am here for it!
