Am I impatient or are they dragging this out for the last few episodes? Come on now! 😤

My pleasure 😊. Next time, don’t engage even if it’s infuriating. As soon as someone shows signs that they don’t understand what you are saying, ignore them. Let them in their confusions. We can engage with the ones who disagree with us as long as they understand what we are saying. Take care!

You know what I’ve noticed on websites like this one? Many people have poor reading and comprehension skills. They can’t read objectively, no where you said anything bad about the actress herself. She can be a great actress but that doesn’t mean all the roles are for her. It’s just what it is, some looks work better and that’s it. People act all rabid on here, it’s as if we are among cult members. Acting is an art and art is subjective so idk why people act this way.

What I’m more having a hard time with are the facts that there’s someone there who supposedly knows about medicine but even him can’t tell she’s a woman? She lives among fighters and we are supposed to believe that none of them can tell there’s a woman sleeping, eating etc… with them? Come on. I agree, she’s a good actress but not good for this role. They should have casted a more masculine looking woman OR more feminine looking men like in “Dominion and Devotion” to match the slimmer female body.

Reading your review, I’m glad I dropped this the first day it was released.

I agree with your review. Also, advice from someone a decade older than teenage years, don’t apologize or explain yourself out of fear of what others will think or say about your opinion, as long as it doesn’t cause harm to others. People who attack others over their personal preferences are either mentally unstable, bullies or lack emotional intelligence. In that case, you don’t bother reply to them as they need to seek professional help.

Hmm 😑… They deserved each other. He should have died where he was and die in that other city, with his weak and weird self.

I understand. It’s unfortunate that the site had technical issues when you tried to vote on individual episodes. Hopefully the grade of the drama goes up at the end of the show. Thank you for sharing your situation 😊

Yess!! They squeezed all that in the last 10 eps, I was still trying to adjust to them not being siblings then next thing I know she’s holding a baby smh.

I also didn’t understand what was the purpose of the random woman who looked like Ning’s mom. Aaaanyway! It was a mess toward the end, the writer gave up on the entire thing.

This is the type of drama I want to only have one season. I want them to end on a strong note and leave it at that. Many seasons might feel draggy and the show might lose its essence.

“ that made me think that’s how mice would sound if they talk.” I’m WHEEZING!!!🤣🤣😮‍💨.. Combine that voice and the lack of facial expression, she either opened her eyes big, half smiled of frowned.

Yup, my friend we were definitely watching with the same set of eye.. and eras 😅.

This is what happens when the storytelling goes bland, viewers like us start to pay attention to outfits, lack of facial expressions, we become less tolerant of voices etc... I bet if it stayed engaging, we wouldn’t have paid that much attention to those details.

Are the ones who like the drama not voting on episodes? Surely we are more than the ones who don’t like it? Why is it stuck on 8.1? Anyone knows why?

I swear I had the same experience. He was amazing in “Are you the One?” but here not that great, especially towards the end. I have a feeling that his performance depends on the fl he gets. In “are you the one” she’s more mature than fl here so he had to act accordingly. Idk… the voice of the fl started to irritate me.
The fact that the bubbly cousin who liked food and her fake dad only got 1 outfit the entire show… I was ready to be done with it all.

Thiiiiss!!! People are so thirsty for romance, they’ll see it everywhere. The man was a piece of 💩 and he doesn’t deserve sympathy.

Idk about you but towards the end of the drama all of them started to piss me off.

I also think that she and the one who played the friend are the weakest actresses since the drama started. Everyone else could pull us into their emotions. Remember how the actress who played the mom of that baby was crying and going into depression while looking for her baby? Even the grandma’s acting was on point. You could actually feel the sadness. This one today, she was “crying” with no tears.

I was hoping she’d snap and tell the truth at the police station when she saw him hugging his wife. We really can’t trust anyone fully in this life, smh.

So far nothing is believable

- as you said, the fact that she’s a general with that physical appearance.
- the fact that ml couldn’t tell that it was an imposter when they were in front of the emperor. Some said it’s because they hadn’t seen each other in a while but we can clearly see flashbacks of them studying together and they already had their adult bodies.
- she survived that fall from the cliff and had that sword pierced her chest but after a month in a coma she was perfectly fine.
- she’s in a camp full of soldiers but no one seems to realize that with her petite body that she’s a woman.
- there’s someone who knows medicine in the camp and even him can’t tell she’s a woman?
- she’s a respected general but no one knows what she looks like to the point where her brother can take over that easily, didn’t she have soldiers she trained with before? No one can tell?

The list goes on, it’s really hard to watch without having to shut down logic.

Ep. 24… that “best friend” is sus.

🤣🤣 him saying that “mei mei” and seeing his face brought the violence out of us! Smh, I was starting to forget the rage his character gave me but your comment reminded me again 😂. The actor didn’t have to commit that much to this annoying character 😤.

“We ask for your interest and anticipation for the story of the brutal serial killer Queen Mantis, brought to life through Go Hyun Jung's intense effort and meticulous performance."

You got it! When actors are this committed to a role, the least I can do as a viewer is to give my respect and attention.
