Well, I have no idea what you wanted to prove with the rom-com genre reveal. Aaaand I'm not gonna bother explaining the rest. It feels like my words are wasted on you. You are watching this drama through an already very biased pair of glasses. My advice to you now is that you should think about whether to drop it or not. If you want to continue watching it, even though you don't like it, it's fine...it's all up to you. :) Cheers🥂

Nice explanation 😃

There are signs of affection. But not all affection needs a physical attachment or form. It might come in the form of an emotional attachment/form as well. Just like how they look at each other. The way how they think about each other. Things they do with each other in mind. These are all signs of emotional attachment. Forbidden marriage was silly and was more of a joke. I mean that's the style they chose, I'm not ridiculing it, I'm just stating facts. Yes, there are some serious moments but some moments in Forbidden marriage felt forced and some felt silly. I actually didn't give forbidden marriage a good score because of the bad execution of those silly scenes. Pulling off silly scenes in dramas is very difficult, and I guess only few dramas could execute such scenes without the degradation in quality. For example, cdrama, "The romance of tiger and rose" and kdrama, "Mr. Queen". Both of which had so many silly scenes but only made the drama much better.

Also, your view of romance is somewhat limited. I guess this drama will actually give you a wider PoV on what romance is. I'm saying this as a person who has watched more than 5 varieties of dramas which excludes my viewership of anime, manga and comics.

Well, I guess you got the point and then actually debunked it yourself. I've been watching anime from my pre-teens to right up until now(more than 15 years) . And well, you're speaking about approach. Basically the buildup to the relationship. You just said that there are romantic stuff happening on a regular basis. Okay, I agree. Like what? I mean like what? Tell me. Every line you type is a contradiction to your own previous line.

Also, no offence, but I am neither getting paid nor getting any kickbacks from typing these comments. If you have an issue with the drama, then that's your problem...not mine and neither is it the problem of the people who support it.

Just like you're my hero, this drama just puts me to sleep. I guess I'm not into dramas like this where the relationships are steady. I'm sorry but I'm dropping this at episode 25.

Watched 1/3 of episode 18 and well...I still feel that the pacing is just right. I will wait for episode 19 to release today and will watch the rest of episode 18 with episode 19 today or tomorrow.

Most of the complaints here are because of the slow-burn romance. Well, actually I've watched countless dramas. English dramas, Sinhala dramas, Japanese dramas, Chinese dramas and obviously Korean dramas.

I have found that most far east Asian dramas have a trend of revealing the romance half way through the drama. But then again there are dramas that do not conform to this trend.

These dramas conform to the trend of "Anime". Yes you saw clearly. And I've watched plenty of anime to be a good judge of this.

There are plenty of anime that use romance as the climax and the end of a series. And Yes, standard animes are only 12 to 13 episodes with only 24 min standard airtime but that would all the more likely should make the writer reveal the romance midway, right?

Well, it's wrong and right. It's how you perceive a genre. Manga artists/ anime creators believe that the build up to a relationship is also romance itself no matter how insignificant it is. And Yes, not all animes tend to follow this trend just like not all kdrama would follow their own trend either.

60 episodes ...lol, those who come here for romance will probably have to wait till 25 to 35 episodes to get that romance but can't wait for 20 episodes to get romance in korean..what a joke.

I'm at episode 15 and I've yet to feel the pace being too slow. I've been watching 2 episodes every day now. The pacing feels right and the romance doesn't feel forced. The chemistry seems okay, not great neither bad. I only hope that they keep up the same pacing up until the end

I already know. But still...

Step mother and step son? Wat da? So are we really gonna let that go. I mean... 'My Lethal man' had a brother falling in love with his sister's doppelganger. Now we have step mother and step son. Well, the only thing I could do now is actually...watch it. :)

I like how it started but the last 3 episodes didn't help much to add to the quality of entertainment. As it progressed from 7 to 9, it had two extremes colliding with each other. One was melancholy and the other was silly characters. Melancholic plot with silly sideline characters don't really fit the deal here. Anyways there were silly characters in the beginning, however they became more silly at the end. Especially, Issei's grandma. I mean ....wth ...the supermarket scene. I know she was silly but god dammit I thought Pennywise from the Movie 'IT' had crossed over from his cinematic universe. Anyways, a 7.0 from me.

Well, that's your PoV. :)

So sister in law Vs brother in law .....wat da

I'm happy this drama isn't focusing on romance. If they did, the quality of the story telling would have significantly decreased. I do hope tho that the ending will lead to some kind of romance but even if they didn't have any romance and both of them part ways, I'm quite satisfied. I mean, who would like to live in a palace that's like hell. So I would like to see the FL getting her freedom.

Well, I mean ..in these kind of dramas, them staying alive is a struggle itself let alone confess to each other.

I'm guessing that they'll try to end this with romance as the climax or anti-climax. Probably with a time skip. Maybe not with a kiss but with a hug. Hmm... I guess holding hands is also considered to be romantic. Hehehe. May be they hold hands as they die. Now that's gonna be Romeo * Juliet next level tragedy if they do end it like that. But personally, having no no romance is also good so as long as the story telling is good.

Did you watch episode 18?

So did it happen? :)

Royal wedding ftw :)

What if it happens?
