nah the drama writers could have done so much better than the mess they have rn. the cheering theme (ik its done before) but in between all the university/college dramas it really felt unique and that's why I decided to give it a go. But, they have only disappointed me more & more these recent episodes. Just like everyone else, I'm sick of the sml still sticking around but it's not entirely his fault if you think abt it. Haeyi had a chance to set things right when the sml quit the club, he was trying to move on but she went and tried to persuade him to come back. Like, they weren't even that close and she knows that he likes her. She tries to put it as if he actually enjoyed the club activities but in reality anyone could guess that he entered because of her! She really is frustrating. I do like how the fl is so bright and cheery but really that is all there is to her personality. I also hate how she treats her brother, he gets great grades but she doesn't appreciate it at all? She tells him to work even harder, talk abt pressure?
Another thing abt this drama, the writers have wayy too many ideas for this where they're tryna squeeze every tiny side story in these 16 episodes. Though the ideas and side stories are pretty good stand alones but they just ruin the flow of the story and it seems like the drama loses focus a lot!.
Now let's talk abt ml screen time. Yes, sml got wayyy more screen time than him. If you didn't do prior research for the drama, you'd think the sml is the ml.
I really really wish the drama focused more abt the cheering part because it seems so interesting than the boring and cliche love triangle which gets worse each episode.
Also when the ml and fl get together it was so weird. Idk why she had a hard time choosing when she knew she liked the ml. And the timing just felt wrong.
anyways I'll probably stick for a while more or just drop this but yeah it's a weak 7 outta ten for me.
p.s thanks for reading my rant!

HEAR ME OUT:
The part where she demotes Consort hwang was THE BEST scene from Episode 10! I just loved the expression on her face after that!

this is the best drama this whole year for me! The way the story paces is incredible! I was in awe in each and EVERY episode. The queen is such a stunning character I adore her so much. I love how she stands her ground even when the situation is tight, it shows how she's perfect for the Queen position. Where can you find such a loving mother, and such a loving queen to her subjects? The way she treats the other princes which aren't even biologically related to her? The way she treats any subject? She's just stunning. Kim Hye Soo did an OUTSTANDING job here. Her acting is just perfectly depicting the queen. The facial expressions are EVERYTHING.
If you haven't still started watching this, you really should, no episode is a waste and the Queen is just stunning! A 10/10!

maybe the webtoon 'Purple Hyacinth' ?

wait there's a webtoon called 'Purple Hyacinth' and the plot here sounds eerily similar to it. It has the female lead who can know when someone lies and the male lead is a murderer (a actual murderer tho, ig that's diff here). Anyway here's the link to the webtoon in case anyone's interested: https://www.webtoons.com/en/mystery/purple-hyacinth/list?title_no=1621
It's an amazing webtoon and I would definitely recommend this to everyone who loves mystery! Also I'm super excited abt the cast, minhyun and sohyun?? I never pictured this but I'm ready!

I think she probably does not like him, I feel like she was neutral with him as they showed in the start that they were on good terms but Idk what exactly changed her train of thought

oh my goddd!! THE CAST! ryeon and ye eun?? ITS GONNA BE GREAATTT!! also im hoping for some, ehem, hot....scenes...? OMG PLS WE ALREADY KNOW HOW WoW RYEON IS IN TERMS OF EHEM BODYYYYY. PLEAAASEEE AHHH I CAN'T WAIT.

1. She thinks she should've been the queen because she was from a more powerful family than the queen (fl). Fl was from a humble background.
2. Yes kind of. Honestly the queen dowager is just playing rn. She's supporting 2-3 consorts but hasn't really picked a side properly yet.
3. Not clear yet but it seems she doesn't like how humble she is and maybe wants to take control of the palace. It seems she wants to be the one to decide what happens and what not but I think it's just hatred because she was also a concubine and not the actual queen before her son became king. (she killed the prev. cp)
4. I'm not sure exactly when you're talking about but I think he had no special interest in studying so he use to skip classes just to have fun maybe.
5. If you have seen till I have then you'll know that consort hwang added something weird to cp's medicine and it turned out he died, so yes he was killed by her.
6. the queen's son IS the cp, she has i think 5 sons. I'm not sure why she started hating the queen and her kids but I think queen thinks that she's incompetent and so are her sons.
7. Consort tae seems to care for her son and wants to show his son that he can become the cp, on the other hand consort ko seems to try and put too much pressure on her son to become cp even though he's not passionate abt it. But they both are doing some sort cheating in the contest. Consort ko specially seems more evil compared to consort tae.
8. Not said much abt it yet but the queen did say that he was taken away? or it was for his protection. She also did say that she herself being a queen couldn't get him back but the cp was able to.
That's it! Hope you understood everything now!

ohhh that's great thenn!

can't wait! also in the trailer, in a snippet it looked like minho wasn't wearing a shirt, am I the only one?? I feel like this is gonna be a very hot one and damn I'm ready!

not really, I genuinely think she's doing a great job, I would criticize juhee instead, she seems so emotionless. I'm not even sure if it's the actress or the character itself. But still I think yeonwoo is doing pretty great!

Please, she's doing a great job portraying the emotions of her character. I've seen her in some other works and damn, she's versatile! I really do this she did a great job in this till now. I didn't see any flaw at all 🤔

I'm loving this drama so much, more than I expected it. What's with the low ratings? I love the suspense and the way the drama is moving forward. What makes this better is that I haven't read the webtoon so I have no idea what is gonna happen and it makes the experience a 100 times better. The cast is doing a great job, I've only watched sungjae in goblin till now and yeah I'm so in love with him right now. He's doing a great job in playing his character, like really well! I don't know abt others but I'm 100% on seungchan's (the real one) side. He went through so much being with his family, getting bullied everyday, studying to maintain his rank, collecting money, he's the real deal. Ik he switched his parents but it's not like he completely forgot them and moved on being selfish, he's still trying to help them, trying to make a better life for them since he has the money now, you can see that he's such a good person. Even as taeyong, he did not once misuse the money or authority for selfish reasons. Everyone thinks that taeyong as a person is improving but it's actually that it's an entirely diff person. And taeyong (the real one) is having a comfortable home and warm life without going through any hardships. I have to say that I hate his attitude both as taeyong and seungchan.
And juhee, I don't blame her for not finding seungchan strange like everyday, he's got an attitude, he doesn't study much anymore, I don't think he even does the part time jobs to help with his tuition??? He needs to take responsibility as seungchan and he still is acting all high and mighty. A little help to his family would be better.
Seungchan's crying in the end of the ep 4 was so sad, I really want him to switch back and find his way from there. Also I really want Juhee to find abt the switch so that this girl knows who she actually is in love with!!
I Love this show! I think I rate this 9/10

I cannot believe this! Whoever thought of turning webtoons to dramas is the biggest genius ever! It really fulfils our dreams! (well if they do it right!) I loved this webtoon, though it was not the best, it had a steady plot and amazing chemistry! But the only problem is that when they remake webtoons as dramas, they change the plot dramatically which I personally hate. Ik they're gonna do it for this one as well but I'm still gonne wait cuz I LoVE the cast. I think Park gyu young can really pull of the characted, I've loved her in sweet home, dali and the cocky prince and it's okay to not be okay! And we'll see how eunwoo fits in, I'm glad he doesn't have the same cold guy character, I can't wait to see eunwoo versatility!
Happy waiting~

Things I feel after watching the latest episode 14:
- The cases are gonna be the same, not criminal and not very engaging. Why? Because this is realistic. In real life, cases are not all about murders or very engaging things and it's also the case with this law drama. I think this is also a plus point for the drama since we don't really see much of daily life cases or lawsuit cases in kdramas.
- Junho liking wooyoung - Yes I did think it was shallow at fist but I think its fine? I mean he sort of started liking her when he saw her in a wedding dress, and we all think that's sort of shallow but honestly why can't it be true? I mean we've seen several cases like this. And they try to get to know each other after confessing each other's feelings which is totally okay. this is normal! I don't think romance is the problem here, i think it's pretty bearable.
- Kwon Minwoo - From the beginning when he started bothering wooyoung, I thought he'd have some sort of development, but they didn't give him character development but gave us something to pity him about? I don't like where this is going. And them getting him and su yeon together? Come on if they were not gonna give us any development then why are you giving him a potential relationship (which'll most likely come true) with someone who is a character loved by everyone and someone who very well knows how much of a jerk he is? I really wanted character development from him.
- And atm I think the criticisms are coming partly because this is really famous which I think is kind of sad.
- Woo youngwoo breaking up with Junho is totally justifiable because of the things she heard junho's sister say.
- It's weird how Junho doesn't understand why people think he's in a difficult relationship. Also he could've given his sister a heads up about Youngwoo having autism and that they shouldn't be looking at her in a negative light. And last of all I think he shouldn't have taken youngwoo to his sister's place at all at that time. He didn't even ask her if she was comfortable meeting his sister but just straight up suggested it which is very not Junho like. Yes the breakup is sad but I think I'd be fine if they don't end up together and youngwoo goes on being the independent amazing attorney she is.
- I still admire the autism theme this show has and showing various aspects people with autism have to face.
So basically I'm staying here till the end not because of junho and youngwoo romance, not because of the law cases but because of Woo Youngwoo! I still love the character despite the flaws this show has and also love the actress playing the character for doing such a great job.
I look forward to the last week of the extraordinary attorney woo young woo is!
Happy waiting :) ~

I likes the previous cover moreee. I've been waiting for this drama since forever! After seeing the trailer, their chemistry already seems amazing and I'm just hoping they don't turn her into a dumb female lead. And I also like how the roles are reversed and the ml wants to live a normal and average life. CHINA AIR THIS FASTERRR!

Truee, things get serious here with hate comments lol

It's totally alright! After all the comment section is there for you to let out your thoughts!

No no no... I didn't mean to disregard your opinion, I just meant to share my opinion on the topic. I'm sorry if I offended you, it was certainly not my intention! I respect your opinion. Again I'm sorry if I offended you!

I don't understand why you'd be disgusted by it? Till now seeing his character he doesn't seem bad at all. In fact he has his own share of misery and suffering. I'm totally fine with her ending up with ml. I know SEP is perfect and caring too, but that doesn't disregard the ml. I think we should watch and judge this series without any biases towards the actors.
