The dynamic between the leads is so interesting in this drama, I’m not sure what to make of it yet (how to define it) — I’m only on episode 4, so bare with me here please.

Thank you!

No problem, have a nice watch!

Thanks!

It’s funny how ML and others react, but honestly horse shit doesn’t smell all that bad.
After working at a stable for some time, during a few summers, I’d even say it’s one of the most tolerable animal waste scents (tho every waste starts to smell bad after “fermenting” etc or laying around for too long) probably because of their fairly simple diet.
Overall not a very bad smell, and it’s pretty easy to get used to it if you work around horses.

Nice profile picture by the way! from what series is that photo? 😆

I Just started, but it seems he was a newly appointed regional magistrate, and a royal inspector in disguise, but he started boldly going against corruption and hidden agenda from years ago so the other officials handed him a case that was supposed to rub others the wrong way and ruin him (if he were to deal with it seriously, which he did), and so he was ruined and one of his own servants/officers (I think? Anyway a guy that followed him around before, but also seems to give away information to someone else) orchestrated an attack on him , while he was traveling to meet with a coroner due to that ongoing case. But the assassination failed as he fell down the mountain, hitting his head so he later doesn’t remember what happened or who he is, and was found by the FL who saves him (although without any enthusiasm) and makes him a servant.
She met him before so she knows who he is, but at the magistrate office they say that the ML was an imperial inspector and after receiving a letter he urgently returned to the capital (which obviously isn’t true as he is here) and they’re all apparently behaving like everything is normal (so his demise might have been plotted by a lot of powerful people in the region and/or the capital, and people from the whole office under him might have been on it), because of that the FL isn’t actually sure of his identity and is suspicious about him (saving him was also expensive, since he was seriously injured, so she isn’t very happy with him).
All this I know after (not fully yet) watching 2 episodes.

Oh, I see, no problem 😅

Thank you! Do you know if that’s all or is he going to be in ep 3 too? I thought he might be the episode’s “case subject” (accused in court) so his role will be important in that 1-2 episodes, but is that not the case?

The story of the older couple was so great! I was really moved.

I really like how this movie has a somehow pedantic character with OCD or something similar, but he is also nice and playful. Such characters (especially male) are often presented as cold, nonchalant and distant in media, while they do not have to be and people in real life aren’t always like that as well.

Is Bae In Hyuk guest-starring in the first episode, or sometime later?

Yeah I know, thanks

I’m under the impression that Yoo Yoon Seok plays a lot of Doctor roles lol, and even if it’s not that much then his Doctor characters are likeable and prominent enough to be remembered for a long time, which creates the image that he plays them a lot.

Agreed. It was more fun at the beginning, but by the end I was losing patience for this drama a bit.

This drama isn’t bad, but it’s not very good either. I feel like they might have used too much rom-com troupes to the point that it becomes unnecessary and tacky, but if someone likes makjang style dramas, it shouldn’t be a big problem.
It can be fun and entertaining, yet I am disappointed by the last episodes.

I’m kinda glad that I watched this as it was airing, because if I hadn’t done that, it would be sitting on my “to watch” list forever lol. But I also kinda feel like I’ve wasted too much time on this drama, it might not have been worth it idk.

I hope all is well and that he’ll recover completely!! ❤️‍🩹

This drama is a fever dream at the back of my mind

I understand why this is a problem, I guess, but i as of now, what he said isn’t as big of a controversy that it would warrant the boycott of the entire show, in my opinion.

I didn’t finish One Spring Night but I intend to do it someday (so I don’t think that I actually “dropped” it) but in it’s case I actually really liked the songs, I liked the lyrics way more than here and the song fit the drama more too. I guess, because I listened to the ost of OSN quite a lot before seeing the drama, it helped me like it more.
But I totally agree that OSN and SITR are both kind of difficult to get through, and I guess you have to specifically want to watch this kind of drama at the moment, to enjoy watching them - otherwise it’s just tiring.
