That whole āletās investigate whether their marriage was fakeā plotline really does feel manufactured just to stir drama. Historically speaking, marriage and love were often completely separate things. For most people back then, marriage was about compatibility, family interests, stability, social standing, or survival, not butterflies and grand romance.
A lot of dramas are airing right now. Our Dazzling Days, Love Story in the 1970s, Generation to Generation, Too…
No, I donāt think Iāll drop any of them. I actually like all of them , they just have some flaws that keep me from having the best possible viewing experience.

Iām watching all of them š. When it comes to 1970s, I actually really like it ā I think it does a great job depicting that era. Our Dazzling Days, on the other hand, isnāt really working for me. I find it somewhat boring overall. As for Generation to Generation, the first two episodes were strong, but the quality dropped in episodes 3ā5. The editing was messy, and it felt like a lot of important scenes were missing, almost as if we were thrown into the middle of the story. Thankfully, the drama picked up again afterward and is much better now. Honestly, the only one Iād confidently recommend is 1970s. Since you said itās not really your cup of tea, maybe try a few episodes and then decide. Lastly, Too Young to Love and About Love are about to start, so keep an eye out for those.
I canāt fully express how much I loved the ending because it felt both realistic and deeply satisfying. Once the male lead became king, marrying the female lead became almost impossible due to their huge difference in status. He also chose not to remarry, not only because of his love for her but because there was already a Crown Prince. If he had children with a queen, that child would likely be disposed of and perhaps restarting the endless cycle of conflict over the throne. What I loved even more was the female leadās choice. Even when the Queen Dowager offered her the position of royal concubine, she refused. It felt completely true to her character. She is a doctor, someone who wants and needs to do meaningful things and she would never confine herself within palace walls. In the end, they remained in love, quietly, intimately, waiting for the day the Crown Prince grows up and takes the throne, so they can finally live together with nothing standing between them.
I think the drama does a good job of showing how romantic relationships often work nowadays. When two people havenāt known each other for long or when their relationship lacks solid foundations, it becomes fragile. Once their differences begin to surface, the relationship easily starts to fall apart.
I heard that Sun Zhen Ni has left her company and is planning to launch her own studio as the sole owner. If this is true, it would mean much more creative freedom and greater control over her career choices. I truly hope this new chapter works in her favor and that we get to see her shine in many successful dramas for a long, long time.
The drama portrays very clearly that patriarchy is about power over women, not about any so-called ālaws of nature.ā A woman is essentially forced into sleeping with another man and carrying his child ā a child she is never allowed to see again ā sacrificing and ruining her own body just to earn money and save her husband. Yet once he recovers, he condemns her for bearing another manās child, conveniently forgetting her sacrifice and abandoning her completely.
"You and I are different. You are Korean - American, you graduated from Oxford. You're real elite, not like the rest of us." I've seen a lot in kdramas that Koreans tend to idolise America. Does anyone know the reason behind this?
Itās actually not too bad. It shows that people arenāt really rating the drama right now, which can be a good thing considering how common overrating and underrating have become. Once the drama finishes airing, I hope the ratings will stay balanced and subjective.
Bai Juās reason for the divorce feels emotionally selective. She says Shao Yunfei reminds her of Bolamula and that it hurts too much but if that were the real issue, distancing herself only from him doesnāt fully make sense. The rest of the team is just as tied to those memories. It makes her decision feel more like an excuse than a fully explored emotional truth. Perhaps something else bothered her in their relationship. As for Shao Yunfei as a father: Yes, he has flaws. Yes, heās clumsy. But every time he tries to step up, heās met with coldness, distrust and outright dismissal , especially the repeated āyouāre not cut out to be a fatherā line from Bai Chu. Just some of my thoughts.
