who's the guy she ends up with?

this man Liu Xiao Xu. what a find!
i think i finally have an ideal type when it comes to Chinese male actors...

Top 5 was obviously a business decision.
1 from each team + 1 female/international artist package.

But honestly, some artists' semi-final stages should've made them get to the finals >
1. "On To The Next": Haon - class apart. (Z/C team)
2. "W.I.N.": Osun feat. Bewhy - was very good. (G/L team)
3. "Pajama": Raf Sandou feat. WOODZ - was also very good. (Z/C team)
4. "NEVER": MILLI feat. Wonstein, lIlBOI - was quite good. (G/L team)
5. "KOO KOO": Jung Junhyuk feat. Natty (KISS OF LIFE) - was also quite good. (Z/C team)
"Robbing" (뺏어): Mason Home feat. Roh Yunha, Coogie - was good. (G/L team)
"Animal": Nowimyoung feat. E Sens - was good at best. considering his track record. (JT/HS team)
"2 Chainz & Rollies 2026": Zene The Zilla feat. The Quiett - was nostalgic. (LM/JP team)
"BAOW": Tray B feat. Jay Park - was okay. his previous stage was better. (LM/JP team)

only 2 teams delivered constantly. so i can understand why the showrunners would be in a bind. (personal opinion only).

Thanks.. I’ll need to use a VPN to access the website it seems..

Would you also know where I can watch High School Rapper 2 ?

Lifesaver! Godsend you are 🙏🏼

Not available in my region unfortunately.

Show me the subs is not showing episode 10…. Anyone can share a link ?

Is it because we have immortals in realms but not deities & demons? Just guessing

i think Matsumoto Leo looks like Zhang Wan Yi.. similar intense gaze vibes!
having said that, he was GOOD in Cinderella Closet, pretty much carried 95% of it for me.
great first ML character choice.. very memorable in a sea of stereotypes! good job!

@yuzzuu Thanks for the update! You were the only one who actually responded to my question :) Seems like I wasn't too far off in my conjecture… recently I saw Lee Sang Yeob in a short vertical format Drama and I was very taken aback as well… along with JIW’s appearance in this long format, it really had me questioning if there's a new trend go in on or something..

I'm not a fan of long format dramas primarily because of the soap opera OTT madness. The only one I liked till date was Once Again. This one I will watch purely for Jung Il Woo. Cause I'm a fan.
But here’s a question for anyone who knows better… has JIW’s commercial/popularity value dropped for him to take up this format? Is it considered a downgrade in any context? I'm curious…

Where can I read the novel?

Will there be a part 2?

A complete blast from start to finish! After a long time a drama kept me hooked because of how unpredictable the storytelling was :) also, with that ending, can we hope for a 2nd part with Nan Heng in the modern world? A bit like Kate & Leopold? That would be a total riot!

totally agree! they've already changed the setting from West to Joseon... so that'll also bring some fresh flavor

I've actually read the webtoon! tbh did not envision OTY as the lead... but i'm curious to see how they adapt this one for the screen

He looks like I.M !!!

I watched this for Liu Xue Yi. That man is a fine actor. I usually enjoy all his projects and haven't struggled to complete any before, but this one was a strain. I could only power through because of LXY's performance. The storytelling was not smooth, and the production value was also not top-notch. I had a lot of issues with hair and makeup. Any other actor and this one would've sunk early on.
