I mean, its Korean drama...what do you expect? They can't imagine him as a businessman or a Tech CEO. Labourer…
Saudi prince is just another BIG stereotype. It has to be either a saudi prince or some labourer. I mean, if you are a non asian having that perspective, then kudos to you but I don't care that much about representation in korean entertainment. Its on brand for them! Their portrayal is a reflection of korean society... it doesn't have much to do with brown people. Do I enjoy making fun of this mentality? Sure... Do I expect anything from them? Nope!
I love his acting...I will watch every drama he is in. People can talk unnecessary sh** all they want. He is one of those SEASONED ACTORS and very few can execute roles like him
This is how the FL character was portraited in the beginning all together with her family, she was reserved again…
Happily ever after isn't the ending. The ending is kingdoms having peace after years of war...until some maniac starts trouble again. I believe the FL was good but that ending you suggest...the cousin taking care of the child while the ML died? F no! This is a cdrama with romance as the main genre. Why would he die with such a strong army? Why would people get a kick from unnecessary death in the end ...unless...they are into russian literature
You wanted the Female lead to backstab (when her sole purpose was to stop war and execute peace treaty) and you wanted the lead to die so that the animosity can continue for another 10 generations. ..besides, the lead dying in the end is the oldest most predictable period drama ending. This show is focused on diplomacy and "peace time". Not war! And yes, diplomacy is extremely slow (even in the real world) but for those who understand it, know that it holds the most power to save lives.
This is such BS! MULAN WANTS TO LAUGH. Mysogynistic ideas dripping from this comment. The UNCLE BETRAYED EVERYONE.…
Didn't know I was talking to someone uneducated. A politician isn't just a formal designation. A politician also refers to a person skilled in the art of political science. She was very mucb a skilled politician who also made millitary strategies and won without losing a single soldier in the troop she lead...
You can keep ignoring that. Like a mysogynist.
Mysogynists like you hate to see women rulinb because it hurts your pride. Secretly, people like that want to associate themselves with a group desperately because individually, they lack everything and know that a lot of women are better leaders than them. So they hide behind a group to feel secure and try to triviliase women's achievements as leaders.
Maybe, denying that Manman was not a diplomat or a politician helps you sleep at night. I bet you see historical dramas just because you can't take that modern women have more rights. OMG! You poor thing. No wonder you drew that conclusion. Why didn't it strike me before.
"They are great women but not leaders" Exactly what mysogynists want women to be... SIDE CHICKS AND SUPPORT AT BEST...but never leaders
This is such BS! MULAN WANTS TO LAUGH. Mysogynistic ideas dripping from this comment. The UNCLE BETRAYED EVERYONE.…
Yes. She's a politician in thsi drama. You can cry about it and you can cry about the other female leaders in the world too.
Poor mysogynist. Can't stop women so he decides to live in his delusions by thinking that women don't make leaders. I feel terrible for the women that have to deal with men like that. Brainwashed by movies..? You are a man who is A BIGOT and deeply jealous and insecure of successful women. So much soo...that you go an extra mile to ignore giving credit to them for their political and leadership abilities.
Right up there with MANMAN'S UNCLE..."am I even a patriarch in this household?" No uncle...nobody cares about your rotten old ideas which should've been thrown in the bin
Listen I don’t wanna sound rude but I did not feel bad for Da Qiao 😬😬. I’m not saying she deserves it…
Neither did I. She really messed it up. Only if she was half as intelligent as Manman.... she turned out to be like her father...Both are not bright people.its just that she wasn't evil but she was just as stupid as her father
This is such BS! MULAN WANTS TO LAUGH. Mysogynistic ideas dripping from this comment. The UNCLE BETRAYED EVERYONE.…
No, it tells you that women make great politicians...diplomats and leaders.
You choose to ignore that because you are mysogynist.
This is a proven fact. Historically, China had many women who lead empires...and the world has many examples of women who lead nations.
Household? You call successful politicians, strategists, leaders and diplomats...managing household?
Bwhaha! Its said that people who have rigid ideas fail to see beyond bigotry. Its great that your ideas are rejected more and more as each day passes.
She should be "allowed"? By whom? Typical mysogynist. She should do whatever she likes.... Glad she didn't let any mysogynist bark to stop her and did even what she WASN'T ALLOWED.
It was because of her that Boya, Qiao clan and Wei won the war and it was because of the uncle...that everyone lost. You blame the woman for it ..and Wei Shao because that's what misogynists do. They blame righteous people instead of blaming cowards and cheaters.
THAT'S WHY GRANDFATHER SAID, "I WISH I COULD KEEP YOU INSTEAD OF YOUR UNCLE". he knew that the uncle is useless but She is their savior. In modern day, I am glad that women have equal rights to become successors in these circumstances
Moral of the story? Don't be a mysogynist.... Make peace, not war! Be like manman and Wei Shao and not like Uncle. Don't let women just manage househols lije FL's sister. Train them in politics like Manman. All those modern wuxia and Xianxia tropes of women leaders must really hurt you. Maybe, they should make one on empress of China as well.
This is such BS! MULAN WANTS TO LAUGH. Mysogynistic ideas dripping from this comment. The UNCLE BETRAYED EVERYONE.…
The granfather of the FL said that there is still one person in the Wei household who has a brain to bring peace. He knew that Manman was also a true leader...and also agreed that she was better than both the uncle and the father. How about you watch the drama again mysogynist? The uncle was nothing but a power grubber like the uncle of FL who wanted revenge. (Just another Liu Yan)
Grandma's family had been defeated but she carried out the operations of diplomacy perfectly. Meanwhile, FL's uncle failed to prevent war that his father wanted and it was FL who prevented war once through diplomacy and the second time by leading troops and preventing reinforcement completely from one end. Wei shao won because she prevented war on one end.
He thinks being a diplomat is "managing household". By that logic, every PM and President is managing households while Armymen are the only ones ruling. When you look at Army controlled states, their situation is laughable.
Maybe the Loser power hungry men like her uncle and Liu Yan should sit quietly at home instead of getting defeated badly after killing their own family. They aren't even good at "managing households". So, I can't say that they should have done that . Their family also hated them.What losers... ! Maybe, they shoukd have killed themselves for the betterment of others
This is such BS! MULAN WANTS TO LAUGH. Mysogynistic ideas dripping from this comment. The UNCLE BETRAYED EVERYONE.…
Misogyny is both in your ass and in your brain. What you are saying isn't a fact. You see what has been instilled in your brain. Its a projection.
A woman (the grandmother) managed political affairs of We while her son died, raised two successful generals and leaders and initiated a peace treaty which lead to overall prosperity pf people through canals.
A woman successfully prevented war borne out of revenge through political strategy and gave an excellent plan of escape to her clan if things go south. When it was used by the villains, she prevented the war on one end completely by sending back the troops.
But her incompetent uncle who sold women to manage his power instead of having a political brain ruined it.
It was a woman(her aunt) who send HER BROTHER TO INFORM WEI SHAO
Even the villainess was a great political strategist and almost all the ideas that Liu Yan terribly executed were hers.
Even in the end, the grandma as well as manman strategised wonderfully.
The one woman who ONLY WANTED TO MANAGE HOUSEHOLD was the only woman who failed...and had to solve things by committing suicide! If She had learnt political strategy, she would have been as helpful and great as the other women.
ML is a perfect example why men should only allow women manage houseand and allow them do what women can do, don't…
This is such BS! MULAN WANTS TO LAUGH. Mysogynistic ideas dripping from this comment. The UNCLE BETRAYED EVERYONE. He betrayed his daughter, his brother, his son in law, his niece and most importantly his own subjects. It was a woman (manman) who Brought stability and peace...and it was a power hungry man who brought ut down.
But, you won't have anything to say about that. 😒
THE GRANDMOTHER CONTROLLED THE WEI HOUSEHOLD GUIDED Wei shao and the land to prosperity... She also raised Wei Yan to become an able leader...but you conveniently ignored that by saying "women should not be allowed to interfere in politics" . Even when the FL made that secret tunnel, she made it to protect people and she lead the army to quickly win the territories to make sure that Wei Army wins the war. Wei Shao allowed him to Manage Boya BECAUSE HE SAVED THE PEOPLE OF BOYA and had goodwill among the people. He never failed Boya. TWO MEN CAUSED THIS WAR TO ATTAIN POWER. You won't blame the man who killed his father, innocent brother and step mother in an instant and went to war even though most of his men died the first time. Maybe you don't know that the most successful emperors /empresses won through diplomacy and not just MILLITARY. Even the villain Liu Yan had no power...if it wasn't for Lady Yu , the villainess, ...who kept providing him with political strategies to kill Wei Shao.
Even if I keep the drama aside, China has had female empresses and queens who were extremely skilled at making political strategies and ruled till they died of old age. Its a shame that people use drama storyline to Project their OWN MYSOGYNIST IDEAS
people. Do I enjoy making fun of this mentality? Sure... Do I expect anything from them? Nope!
