Are they together yet , which episode they start dating?
There is a gorgeous scene in ep 22 where they have a "moment"...camping, milky way in the background...utterly charming. The slow build of their relationship is IMO one of the best I've seen. It makes waiting for them to start dating, very easy!
I mean, he's 47. So he's not suited for romcoms, that much...
I personally think LSK is still suited. But I agree it's definitely not likely he'll be cast in one in SK, when there's a new set of 20-something idols debuting as actors every year.
its hard to root for the ML, when he earned his money by hitting people, being poor doesnt justify this =/
I'm struggling too. The casual violence in Kdramas is already disturbing (for me) but I find this level of realistic violence, overwhelming. It suggests the 'Payback' outcomes are going to be extreme. I'm seriously considering waiting 'til it's aired and spoilered. It's a huge dilemma π because LSK is my go-to...
I'm in awe of how Jung Ji So has managed to make the same facial expressions (or lack of expressions) as Song Hye Kyo. This is worth watching just for her parts alone. But SHK is definitely made for this role. Her general kind of coldness (IMO) is perfect here, and has finally made me think she may have hidden depths. More complex villain roles for her please π
Yes, I feel the script writers have given us one of the best dialogue writing here: subtly funny, humorous, oxymoronic,…
Just came here to say this π but you state it so perfectly! I'm really enjoying the comedy here - not being slap(stick)ed over the head with it, nor having the cast over-act so the audience 'gets it', is such a pleasure. The writers, directors and cast, clearly respect their audience.
Ep6 I understand it is a 'plot device' to create an opportunity for complications but seriously?! THIS. Is the perfect moment to tell Shin Won that you are Hyun Seon. So he AND the king, can protect you. Oh and so. You know! π€ You could actually qualify as a potential Crown Princess (being the REAL daughter of a noble) GAH SO FRUSTRATING! Thinking I may need a break ftom KDramas and all the tropey tropism. ...But they're SO PRETTY AND ENTERTAINING!!! *deep sigh*
OMG thankyou. Book rec's as well as drama rec's!? I couldn't be happier! The only novel I've read here is 'Grandmasters of Demonic Cultivation' and I did enjoy the drama as well. I loved watching YAMG and LLTG. BUT Considering I ALWAYS prefer the book to the ...whatever way it's presented...this article is perfection for me. Thanks againπ Now to find translations...
I totally agree with your points....excepting for the 'worst writer' vote. For me that goes to the writer of Extraordinary…

This left me wanting too. But what's sticking as the MOST disappointing thing is; this cast is freaking amazing, and just was NOT put to good enough use! I admit I watched it to completion but I was left completely unsatisfied. It's always so intriguing to me that so many others have the opposite view to me π€· But I'm even more intrigued when we agree π
Worst writer of 2022.. only the 1st couple of eps were good.The bad;Flat, horrible connection, cheap thriller,…
I totally agree with your points....excepting for the 'worst writer' vote. For me that goes to the writer of Extraordinary Attorney Woo. Yep. I said it!
why do you saythat? sorry I not familiar with both actors.
They both have done multiple projects that IMO, made social statements. So I expect it wonβt just be "...a secret love affair played fast and loose..." There will be a better reason than just lust.
It's a huge dilemma π because LSK is my go-to...
