Because its not purely a romance. Its a story about revenge, betrayal, politics which of course did not mix well…
I was not watching it for the romance, I was hoping it would not be just another romance drama, but was still bothered at how they tried to make the Prince's actions seem romantic when he was manipulative and emotionally abusive...especially that part in the beginning when she falls to forget and he jumps after her and they are spinning like it's romantic, but he had just killed her grandfather...it was cringe in my opinion and so dumb...we can have different opinions, but I appreciate your comment to give me a different perspective. I got a bit bored by the amnesia plot, and it dragged for me, which contributed to the rating. The acting was fine, but I did not think it was amazing. That's just my opinion.
ok the first 10 episodes I liked, but after it was sooo bad. Honestly, this relationship was so toxic, it is the furthest thing from romantic...I can't give this show more than 6 stars and that's only because the costumes were beautiful and the scenery....idk how this is rated so high...
On episode 8, so far I am enjoying it. If you watch this, you have to be in the mood for a silly, stupid, far-fetched show, and not for anything serious. Watching this is funny, but at the same time oh so dumb. But I like it so far, it is keeping me interested and I'm laughing from time to time. Your standards have to be for something cheesy and a comedy, not for something like high production or serious in nature.
Just hope this drama is not butchered to death the way the censors did Royal Nirvana. A 9.5+ drama that was reduced…
oh wow, I recently finished Royal Nirvana and wondered why it seemed so incomplete....do you know what was really censored? Is there an article or something, I'm curious what was cut
I am actually one of the people who enjoys this show more than Reply 1988. I actually dropped 1988 since I found it too slow and the characters fighting all the time got on my nerves, but I'm really enjoying this one. I say if you're contemplating whether to watch it, give it a chance and judge for yourself since I didn't like Reply 1988, but am really enjoying this one. Honestly, people have different tastes and I guess this one is more my style.
also, I think the end couple was destined from the start so I had no problem, they were meant for each other and it was evident, in my opinion.
idk if it was just me, but I wasn't satisfied with the ending :/ I LOVED the show and was kinda disappointed with how things ended mostly open, except for winter garden. I really wanted to know the result of ik-jun and songhwa...what do you guys thing? will she accept his feelings? it didn't really indicate which way she'd go....
I cam here just to find a review like this; my mom and I love Hospital Playlist so we thought we'd try this since it's by the same writer and has a high review. We could not finish the second episode, we were too annoyed with everyone yelling and how the sister was such a bully. We didn't understand why this is so loved. We had to drop it :/
