Honestly, I personally took it as they threw in the line about it all being a dream literally as a throw-away line to appease the censors. If you take it all at face value then you're right, it doesn't make much sense that she knew ALL that was about to happen and it actually paints her in more of a negative light since "technically" the sister and SML didn't get a chance to do nearly as much as her revenge called for lol.

As for the rest of the questions, I think you might be misremebering or misunderstanding how it played out. "Originally" she was married to the ML and poisoned him in collusion with the SML who she was in love with. At that point SML married her and she did more General stuff while he took over more of country and became Emperor then he married her sister as concubine with a BS excuse while still using her war fame. Eventually everything settled down and she got pregnant and sister and him didn't need her anymore so...

It's finally uploaded on IQIYI in US!

Loved this one! Their chemistry and acting were really good especially compared to other microdrams. The storyline is "mostly" coherent with only a few jump cuts that might give someone whiplash... again, quite a feat when one of these are so slap-dash put together you have to wonder if you skipped multiple episodes while still in the middle of one 3 minute ep. 😅

Extend the bed scene any more seconds and I'd have been fanning myself, as it was I was blushing 😂 That was some "nice" censoring sensual content.

Lol I know I'll be watching it while airing

Definitely seems to push the envelope on what's allowed. I liked the overall plot and revenge but I'll admit I wasn't one of these people gushing over the MLs. Personally I thought both ML and FL each only had one flat expression through most the series and it distracted me.

That's what I took from the last episode too so I'd say you're right

🤣 Loved this! To answer your lingering question the dude who bought the paintings and kidnapped the kid in the end was the MLs brother who had been in love with the FLs twin brother who would cross-dress as a female. That was the brother who had supposedly died in the car accident so zero idea where he'd been all those years. He wanted them to be together though since the FL brother DID actually die in the plane crash.

Finished it and I think it definitely got better the longer it went. Almost dropped it the first couple episodes since scenes kept jumping around but that stopped "relatively" quickly once the main storyline starts to pick up. Cute and easy watch.

I work 😭 Oh well... something to look forward to for after! "What's that manager? A countdown sheet? Don't know what you mean..." 🤣

Both comments left already are 100% accurate. Most of the movie is a pretty good "bad" movie. Then the end happens and you wonder if you can leave the "pretty good" qualifier in front of the word "bad".

Bride's Revenge is a HEA. Guy's not actually dead and comes back as a "different" person to fool his brother.

Watched the first episode so far. The set-up is interesting from the get-go but subs are machine generated so had to watch it with my phone in hand with Google lens up in some spots.

On a scale of 1-10 I'd put romance at a 2 or 3.

People are assuming that the last two scenes at the very end after ML turns around and walks back into the wildfire are real life stories with the dance scene being interpreted as he died in that fire so she made a dance to commemorate his life and left an empty seat open in the audience for him.

But that is just one interpretation, I'm personally with you that there is nothing definitively stating he died at the end of the drama and there is a clear delineation between the "end" of the story cannon and the after story showing the firehouse scene and the dance hall scene, both of which are metaphors, not literal.

(The firehouse scene showing that Lin did NOT die in the fire as he arrives at the "afterlife" firehouse canteen LAST).

(The dancehall scene showing that she will wait for him and live well regardless of if he lives or dies in the future because they will always be together as one in their hearts and she will always have the love and support of the firehouse family to help her out).

There are crocodiles... on an island... and they eat people. Only one person servives... maybe 😅

I felt zero depth in her relationship with Shishio so had a hard time understanding why she was so torn up over his "rejection". Then with Mamura I kept feeling like he was trying only to be her friend, which I guess he was, but the underlying tension from him didn't really come through for me in the few scenes set up between them.

I never got a feeling of romantic interest from either of them. Like he gives off an air of concern to me. Idk, whole movie took me almost twice the run time to actually watch.

The synopsis is not quite what happens in the movie. It'd be more accurate to say that the movie is about a 16 yr old girl marrying a 26 yr old police officer after knowing him for a single evening during a mixer where she represented herself as being 22. After getting married she has to try and get used to being a policeman's wife which includes their interactions with a local delinquent boy she befriends from school.

Also, the ending scene with Bruno Mars "I Think I Want To Marry You" playing over them walking is one of the weirdest, cringiest things I've ever seen.

Manga is still ongoing, series ends with her holding her hands over his ears and confessing her love for him while he's had a recorder turned on in his pocket soooo open-ended "yes" since she's still in school and they aren't "technically" together yet.

lol depends on your definition of good. It's family farm politics with a bit of comedy and romance spread on top, tied up in a "this is a gaming world" bow.
