If I'm a Koreaboo just because I don't ignore fact, then I'm a Koreaboo, just like you're a Chinaboo for ignoring how messed up that country is. Just like many others, including Korea btw.

What are you even talking about?😂

If they got together early, she couldn't be a chef at all, because she would be the Queen after a couple of episodes, basically. Or they would've done the same route with getting together in secret, someone finds out, a lot of unnecessary drama and scheming, and in the finale getting married or something. Now, that's boring for me. I've seen that romcom 100s of times.

Not sure, maybe watching the first 4 episodes and not seeing many romance scenes, for example. Romance is obviously part of the plot, but that's not the main focus. If the romance is the most important part, this show would be like "Moon Lovers", "Lover of the Red Sky", "Alchemy of Souls" etc.

No, they're not rightfully annoyed at all. Maybe they put some romance scenes in the marketing, but anyone who watched the first couple of episodes have to know the romance isn't the main plot here. So, even if people got something else from the trailers, that's not the writers' fault.

That's why people shouldn't watch trailers or make assumptions based on that. Trailers are meant to trick people. People take romance too seriously. Like the first thing most people ask in the comments:

"Happy Ending?", "Any romance?", "The main leads are together?" etc.😂

Okay, but you can't say romance is the main focus in this one when it was clear since the first couple of episodes that it isn't.

I don't mind the lack of romance, btw, but you guys already got a kiss and many romance scenes, even tho those weren't long but still. The last 3 episodes will be about that, that's 100%.

I don't think that's gonna be the ending, btw. That's basically the copy and paste version of Moon Lovers. If anything, she's gonna go back but they will meet in the future with his reincarnated self or something or both of them will travel to the future, that would be much more interesting. But imo we're gonna get the usual Kdrama happy ending.

Well, Kdrama is not all about romance, and it's clear from the start that's not the main story. So I don't get why people complain about the lack of romantic scenes. She's just a chef, it's not like they can be together without any problem just because he's the King. The only reason they will be together because that idiot Kang messed up her plan with the kid. 3 episodes is enough for a decent romance story.

I swear, I would love if the main leads won't be together at all because people would lose their minds and I wanna see that.😂

Like, everyone watching Kdramas only for the romance or what?

Come on now, we've seen a lot of Kdrama where they fit in 5 different plots in a finale. 😂 They can fit in a little romance in the last 3 episodes. I don't get it why people overreacting about that when that wasn't the main focus anyway. I get that most Kdrama fans watching Kdramas for the romance but still.

Pretty much every big country is the same honestly. Some are just acting as if they're better.

Not sure what I love about this show more, the cooking scenes with the over the top VFX and the personal connections with the food, or the headbutting scene.🤣🤣🤣

Jokes aside, the Ming's chef's grandma story hit me hard. I can cook some basic food, but I do miss her food, so that was my favorite scene.

I know this drama is not perfect, but it's still such a great time every week. This is the prime example of guilty pleasure.

It was pretty good, definitely worth watch it, but the last episode was all over the place.

They actually surprised me with the real parents plot and overall it was written properly.

That's why I'm interested in this drama, I only need time to watch it. A lot of people say positive things about it, but I'm gonna binge-watch it, probably. Political dramas are not really good (for me at least) watch it weekly.

Yes. I can't even count how many of my fave actors had to run away because they had a different opinion.

And let's not forget about their own people. Like, if someone just sneeze, they will be sentenced to life in prison IF they're lucky. I don't like talking about politics, but we all see what they're doing every day. Honestly, I'm not even sure if these complaints coming from Chinese citizens. It's probably the CCP.

We could say it's just a fiction, but it's funny how the shoe fits for Chinese people. I mean, isn't their country is just like Russia or North Korea? Saying they're obsessed with power and War isn't farfetched, imo.

Exactly what I said in my longer review.

I'm a big fan of Dragons, but goddamn, never seen a dragon in any medium that was this useless and stupid.💀

The competition is only 2 episodes so far, not 4. You could say they're dragging the story with the Mings, but I think they're important in this story because the villains can use them too.

So, in short: the story isn't more stretched out than in any other historical show. In other shows, you can see the main characters vs villains for at least 12 episodes doing the same nonsense all the time, so they can wrap it up in the lat 2 episodes. So, complaining about this in kind of unfair and ridiculous.

Let's say they will finish the Ming story in 5-6 episodes. That's 10 episodes shorter than in most Kdrama.
