Ep.28: This was an emotional roller-coaster of an episode. Poor YX.

I did like the conversation they had though. Mature and believable and without histrionics.

Then there was no need for the actors to apologise too. Unless this is some kind of act of solidarity in everyone sharing the blame or something.

I find it very strange that the actors are apologizing instead of the production team. Are Korean netizens that nitpicky that they have to attack the actors instead.

This is actually the first time I'm watching Ci Sha in any medium and I'm impressed by him. The character of CYY on the other hand is another matter; admiration for his intelligence but also exasperation with his arrogance and manipulation of people. He's not that different from his mentor.

LOL! I'm not sure what the screenwriters are aiming for but one thing that is working here is the portrayal of human relationships as messy and self-centered despite what the characters are saying since their words and actions don't match.

ZY's acting is actually good in this drama. I'm glad he got a new character type to flex his acting muscles.

I've long felt like slapping CYY for the way he treats people as tools because he thinks his way is right. Their relationship is interesting because it's not love in the real sense of the word, at least that's my personal opinion.

Oh my. I need to catch up then and see it XD

The power imbalance between several characters was a key factor in the novel that made me uncomfortable while reading it. Sounds like it spilled over into the drama.

I see. Thank you

Thanks for replying! It's too bad they didn't include him

Thanks for replying!

Thanks!

Thanks for replying!

Is there a Judge Bao in this drama? Or did they remove the character?

Yep. The OP credits pretty much spoil the drama's key scenes if one pays attention.

I'm not surprised the politics was dumbed down and reduced, and YX was altered. It is clearly done to attract general audiences and not to overshadow the ML. After so many disappointments, I've had to lower certain expectations when it comes to drama adaptations🫣

I don't know what you mean

Oh that one. I'm too busy disliking her to remember her name XD

Ep.10: Louis Scott is too good at his job. I feel like I need a shower after watching him here XD

There's a joke among fans that instead of being stuck in Gusu, we're now stuck in Hongsawadi XD

It's the real name of Win Win

LOL! I've seen her in a few other dramas and her roles are similar. That's why I said she needs to diversify a bit XD

Yeah, I can see the resemblance now that you mentioned it.
