I wasn't sure what they meant with "chastity gate", so I googled it... wrong decision lol I think what they mean in the drama is definitely not what comes as search results in Google hahaha
Love how they seem to be teaming up now, even while both are in disguise haha 😂 Also is it just me... but there is quite some sexual tension when they fight against each other lol
LOOL Her response to her mother-in-law's killer stare after she stepped in the mud was just hilarious XD Covering her eyes "I am afraid the sunlight might be blinding your eyes." hahaha
I want to see him so bad as a ML in a romance drama T-T He's gorgeous and a great actor! But still excited if he agrees to star in this one. The cast is amazing :D
Listening to the OST right now on repeat ~~ This drama has such a beautiful soundtrack! ❤️ The songs feel as calm and warm as the drama.
Even though I also wasn't fully satisfied with everything, pls don't let the negative comments and reviews scare you off to watch this beautiful drama!!! Try it for yourself, enjoy the journey and form your own opinion. The acting especially of ML was splendid :D I'm so sure you won't regret it!
I don’t know why, but I feared until the last episode that she would sleep with Jo Han, because of the cheating in the Japanese version 😂 Especially after she got drunk in ep 16... Even tho they already broke up and it wouldn’t be cheating anymore, I just hated the idea of her doing something with Jo Han to cope with her pain. He’s too dear to be treated like a rebound. He was by her side as a friend til the end, comforted her and never crossed the line. I loved that about him!
All these male green flags were a delight to watch! Every single one: Jin Woo, Jo Han, Mo Dam, Tae Ho and Ki Hyun.
Also loved Ki Hyun's conversation with his wife: So Hee: „You pestered me to have a second child so much, so you must help me a lot.“ Ki Hyun: „No, it’s not helping you. It’s just my job as a dad.“
I need a spin-off of Tae Ho and deaf girl asap! They are so cute! I would love to see how they got together and Tae Ho improved so much at sign language.
I forgot her name. The actress doesn't seem to be listed in the cast?
This was a solid 9/10 for me! I really liked this drama. It felt so calm, warm and peaceful, even with all the melo-drama in the last episodes. No one was evil for the sake of being evil. Every character was flawed and relatable in some way.
As I really loved the writing, I was hopeful to see a more refreshing „solution“ to them overcoming their differences. But sadly it was the typical Kdrama formula with a break-up, time jump and last minute reconciliation. That’s why I can't give it a 10/10. I just don’t think a break-up and time jump is a way to overcome differences in a serious relationship. Nothing changed and Mo Eun seemed to have a hard time coping in a relationship with a person who's unable to hear...
Anyway, it was a really good drama and I feel relieved that they didn't butcher it up! Definitely re-watch material ❤️
Well, we all saw that break-up coming miles away...
Even tho I understand Mo Eun's despair, I felt her misery was partly "self-made". While I do agree that their relationship is not an easy one and she has to try harder than in any other relationship, at some point she painted everything utterly black! She felt that every little thing in their relationship was uncomfortable, frustrating and an inconvenience now. In the past she even found peace and comfort in the silence, but no... now everything is bad and negative.
"He can't hear me talking about cabbage while grocery shopping..." She agrees to listen to music, but then turns it off secretly anyway. She literally wallowed in her own despair, thoughts and longing for something else. She built a wall and didn't give them a chance to work around it.
She was unfair to him and not that better than Seo Kyung actually. While constantly saying with words that she is okay, she radiated with EVERY fiber of her body how unhappy she is because of his inability to hear. And telling straight to his face that she dreamt of them talking to each other and how "comfortable" and "nice" it was. That was kinda cruel and just rubbing salt in his wounds. I just can't imagine how lonely and sad Jin Woo must have felt while she was suffering in silence and being dishonest with him. Especially her muttering to herself how "frustrating" it is, while they were lying in bed... That even pierced through my heart. Jin Woo must have felt worse.
No wonder, he broke up with her. He wanted to end her suffering as well as his. Even I as a viewer felt, how she was already done with their relationship. Maybe the misunderstanding with Jin Woo's ex was also just an excuse for Mo Eun to run away from this relationship, just like the fire was an excuse for Seo Kyeong back then. That's why Mo Eun didn't even try to confront him... she was also searching for an excuse to get out of the relationship and be entitled to feel miserable.
Oh man... Jin Woo deserves happiness!!! My heart aches for him. If I were Jin Woo, I could never open my heart for someone again. Not just once, but experiencing this twice would break me. I mean she was the one who approached him, pursuit him, despite him telling her several times, that it won't be easy. But no, she came like a bulldozer, run him over and then left him there...
Sorry, my heart just aches so much for Jin Woo right now, that I'm not able to sympathize with Mo Eun much right now. She knew that he was deaf and yeah, maybe she didn't realize what that meant in the past, but she knew it would be hard...I felt she didn't even try and got frustrated with the slightest inconvenience. I actually can’t see them overcoming their differences. Mo Eun is clearly not able to cope being with someone with whom she can’t talk to.
First two episodes were really good! :D While the leads have visibly an age gap, I couldn't care less because both are slayin' their roles and do look good together. And I'm not even sure if this drama has romance as it's not listed in the genres. Lee Han Hee is just effortlessly funny in her roles and I love her acting like a weak maiden lol
Lee Jong Won is hot in historical attire and gosh... he's beautiful! I'm surprised he doesn't have more lead roles as he really has a strong aura and face characteristics. I've seen him in some support roles in the past, but I haven't seen his full acting scale yet, so I'm curious. So far he's doing really good. Also his voice is just a delight to listen to, especially in saeguk tone! He is made for Historical dramas. Hopefully we see him in more in the future.
Also Cho Yeo Hwa younger version looks so much like the adult one! They really casted a look-alike :D
The more scenes and edits I rewatch, the more I fall in love with Xiang Liu! I especially love the fight scenes. He just looks so ethereal and badass!!! Gosh, I love this character too much lol Would be so cool to have a spin-off of this nine-headed-demon. His past and how he joined Hong Jiang's army would be hella interesting!
Can someone recommend me dramas with a character that has similar vibes to Xiang Liu? The only one who comes to my mind is Tantai Jin from TTEOTM. Doesn't have to be male, I also love badass females like Ren Ru Yi of "A Journey to Love"!... Why do I always fall for tragic characters haha 😂
The leads have some of the most beautiful smiles and teeth I've seen. Why does it feel like I'm watching a dentist ad commercial when I watch their happy scenes LOL

There you have the ideal husband material! ❤️
