Korean shows in recent years have been very different in terms of what they show so I asked.

This drama seems to be have vibes of older, simpler dramas but is it really a family drama given the theme? I'd like to start it but not if it goes into pointlessly risque scenes and topics.

Is this a simple funny drama or is it trying to be 'woke' and 'breaking stereotypes' by implying BL or whatever with the whole gender swap thing? Really tired of gender swaps in historic kdramas at this point.

But it's not right? Kinda tired of gender swap historic dramas.

Is this another drama trying to be cool, raw and edgy and American-ish with deep, aRtIsTiC, distasteful sex scenes but only ends up being forced and weird and a waste of time?

It is disappointing to see kdramas having pointless explicit scenes when they've always been more or less clean to watch unlike western shows. So people's disappointment is very well placed. It is a genre that most of us like because it is closer to our more conservative cultures. And anything being westernised is always a disappointment, there's too much of that stuff around anyway, no need to lose your charm just to get popular in America. the typical reply of "people in Korea don't have sex?" is so old lol

Several on Netflix for one. Everyone has suddenly started to hate on "tropes" and everything is suddenly "problematic" so I feel like recent dramas have been trying too hard to force in stuff like western shows do. I miss the old drama vibes a lot these days.

Sounds like one of those old kdrama story lines not trying to hard to be edgy or woke or cool. I've been missing such stuff. Will give this drama a go.

Wanted to watch recent dramas but I always hate anything with PMY in it, her roles are always so annoying and frustrating. And based on the comments and the way this drama is trying to be all edgy and different, I think it will be a waste of time.

Is it looking like a sad ending? I'm concerned about the melodrama tag.

Is this a sad drama (not sure how to interpret the lovers to enemies tag)?

Lovers to Enemies? Can't tell how this drama is gonna be like. I don't mind a sageuk with a sad ending but what category does this fall into? 😅 Haven't watched a sageuk in agessss and I'm really craving one.

There's a distasteful amount of sex in western shows, they're all literally a kind of a soft porn now. And I just don't want shows from other regions of the world to become like those too since everyone seems to be wanting to appeal to western tastes so much these days.

Yeah it was blown out of proportions by some viewers. It is mostly western people who obsess so much about political correctness so I assumed that...hope the remaining episodes are chill.

Hope the politically correct crowd just drops this drama if they're doing to nitpick about everything. This is not an American Netflix show, not everyone follows the Western style of self-righteous political correctness. And just because they don't, it doesn't make them evil or terrible or whatever everyone's hot takes were making them out to be smh.

Western fans expect everyone and everything to follow their brand of political correctness and if someone doesn't suddenly they think it's terrible and evil. They can just drop the show if they're going to nitpick about everything and watch some woke netflix show smh. Idk why they shove their hot takes everywhere.

Well I hope western fans leave it if they have to give their hot takes about everything. Not every place in the world follows the West's brand of PC and just because someone doesn't conform to doesn't mean that had bad or evil intentions.

This drama has the good old kdrama vibes that current dramas trying to be all different don't have. Hope these nostalgic, old kdrama vibes continue.

Hope this isn't overly inappropriate given the nature of the theme, what with so many kdramas trying to appeal to western audience recently.
