I’m dropping this drama after episode 2. I don’t like the Tyrannical Kings character nor find any chemistry…
This drama is rated 15+. To me, this suggests that we won't see any kissing scenes. The most we will get is a half-dressed king and some hugs and kisses on cheeks.
In my opinion, the lack of physical intimacy between the main leads can prevent the palpable chemistry that we often feel while watching. Without any closeness between the leads, the relationship comes across more like friendship, which poses a problem if the intended outcome is a convincing portrayal of love and romance.
So I do not expect much chemistry but hopefully complicity. We shall see. Maybe I am all wrong! In fact I hope I am wrong.
if they just made up a fake king with a slightly less tyrannic behavior it may have been palatable, but seriously…
Every tyrant commits heinous crimes. If we take a step back, we can observe that every king, emperor, and president in modern times has acted like a tyrant and has committed their own atrocities. In today’s world, those in power—whether in Western or Eastern countries—make decisions regarding matters of war. This often results in the eradication of entire nations due to genocides, while countless women and children endure violence and exploitation. History shows that there hasn't been a single century without wars occurring somewhere on the planet.
I truly do not understand how this decision was reached. It would have been simple to modify a few details to avoid any direct connection. Such changes would not have affected the romance or the comedy.
This series is definitely a comedy romance. With each episode lasting about 1 hour and 20 minutes, that totals to 12 episodes means in fact 24 episodes of 40 minutes each. I prefer having one episode released daily rather than waiting for the weekend for two episodes; that’s just my preference.
My second preference would have been for the scriptwriter to avoid making any references to a real king or actual historical events. They could easily create a fictional dynasty, which would showcase their talent.
Lastly, I’ve always had a soft spot for kitchen and food-related dramas, and so far, this one has been enjoyable to watch.
no. this is S2 of The Immortal Ascension. One page for each season. The poster made a mistake: it is not a movie.
There was no mention of the poster in your first post—no problem. As long as everyone understands the page ERROR, that’s fine.. Regarding the flyer, I don’t believe it is available yet, especially so soon after the end of S1.
A high-budget production—the most expensive ever spent on a series—that begins by promising a masterpiece,…

it's basically just an oopsie, but korean netizens tend to voice their opinion about inaccuracies like this loudly…
It is quite funny that "western" or “international” is narrowed to the US and UK. 🤣 Naysayers will always remain naysayers. Post-production errors happen in every drama I have seen so far.
Wow. If a man was older it is ok, but if woman older OMG. I am so sick of the sexism.
Such a judgmental and narrow-minded comment! Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and there’s no need to correct someone who thinks differently. Intolerance does not suit anyone. Be happy. This person deleted their account. #bullying #humiliating #mean
Looks promising, but I hope they minimize the royal court scheming and plotting. This is what I dislike about…
Especially in romantic comedies, directors often struggle to balance drama and humor. It’s like using a recipe for a cake and deciding to add 20oz of salt to it. It is no longer a cake.
Time loop means, characters have to relive the same thing, this is just a simple time traveling plot, but I have…
She has only her dad. If you watch "Faith," she left her dad and mom behind to return to the past for love. It's a Korean drama. So this ending was done and can be repeat OR we can also have a SE like Moon lovers.

I hope that instead of a bittersweet or sad ending, we will see a happy conclusion instead of where he stays behind and she returns to the modern era.
One of my pet peeves with time travel dramas is BE and SE. A romance should mean a happy ending, with both characters remaining together. She is aware of his karma and has mentioned it. I believe her role is to change history so that he becomes a good and kind king. I really want to see a happy ending; if that doesn't happen, I will feel that I wasted my time.
With how well this drama is doing, it’s expected to hit "double-digit ratings" by episode 3 or 4 this…
Every drama typically garners a large viewership when it first airs. However, the true measure of a drama's success is assessed after it concludes, based on whether it maintains a spot in the top rankings over time. To me, this is the real indicator of a drama's success. Nonetheless, it's encouraging to see the high level of interest in this drama.
I am not the one to complain about age gaps but this is huge.
Everyone is different. For me, a ten-year age gap is not particularly significant, but it can have an impact later in life and often contributes to many divorces. However, love is love. I would consider a more substantial age difference to be 15 or 20 years, but that’s just my perspective.

Without any closeness between the leads, the relationship comes across more like friendship, which poses a problem if the intended outcome is a convincing portrayal of love and romance.
