i thought I was the only one who was so annoyed with his face😭😅

the childhood connection is kinda tricky here. on one hand, it advances the plot and their relationship. on the other hand, it looks like it's the only reason he falls for her.

still cant believe this is rated 8.5🤣🤣

honestly, I would've preferred it all the same if they added no villain at all. but they chose to do so, so they should do it right. why add an unnecessary character and plot points if you're just gonna leave it half baked.

so true. most kdrama viewers can't see past visuals and vibes. thats why shows like this with good visuals and bad writing can get an 8.3 rating.

You're not. dont bother 😂

after episode 3, it's clear to me that the only chance I have of fully enjoying this drama is if I abandon all logical reasoning while watching. that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make for Jung so min

they're all basically the same thing with different faces. it's only about once or twice a year that something different and truly spectacular comes out.

the childhood connection trope almost always finds a way to spoil a good romance. it's so unnecessary.

most kdramas have an issue of poorly developed villains because they always wait till the last minute to reveal the villain. since this show has already revealed theirs, I hope they'll take time and care to flesh him out well. give him a full personality, motives, plans, etc. that so many kdrama villains lack. i dont expect anything groundbreaking or revolutionary from this show, but it should at least be good.

I just saw the dumbest white truck accident ever. the truck driver saw the car coming . he saw that the car was being driven recklessly, swerving along the road. rather than stop or slow down, the truck driver just kept going and going. didn't even try to avoid the car. this show is clearly ful of tropes and i dont mind, but the execution matters a lot. the white truck trope was executed very poorly here and it's so annoying cos it looked so avoidable.

another thing about this drama that ticked me off: during the cooking competition plot, the Korean villains (Jesan and his gang) kept saying that the Korean cooks were going to lose. they assured the Chinese envoy of this fact and kept repeating it among themselves. they sounded so sure, as though they were going to go out of their way to ensure that outcome. then they just sat around and did nothing to make them lose. what kind of villains are these who just leave their plan to fate. i even thought they had some plans brewing, maybe sabotage or something, but they did absolutely nothing. pathetic. they sent assassins on the first day, and made no other efforts when that failed. just another run of the mill villain who lacks innovation and foresight. everything about this show was pretty run of the mill🥱

i agree with you 100%. its overhyped and overrated. one of the worst dramas I've watched this year.

i also found it quite annoying. it was all so illogical and that's why I simply can't take this show seriously

youre so right, except I don't think it need more episodes. it just needed better writing. the romance fell totally flat for me cos she always felt super uncomfortable in their scenes, and she never acted like she had any feelings for him whatsoever. she just randomly told him that she loved him with no build up. all the emotions were just one sided until the last episode.

you dont need to know how to use a sword to simply plunge it through someone's chest. it's not rocket science. also, there were three of Jesan's goons on the floor that the king had defeated. she could've taken one of their swords. so yeah, the point does add up.

if it looked real to you, I'm happy for you. I watch a lot of Hollywood shows and tv, so im used to well done effects. ive also seen lots of kdramas with superb effects.this was just not it. infact, all the effects in this show were either excessive or mediocre. like the scene in the final episode where shes being transported back to the future. it did not look good AT ALL. we can agree to disagree, but don't say I'm lying cos you dont see with my eyes.

You're kidding, right. This a person who basically planned out their entire life just to have her hopes and expectations shattered by the selfishness of someone she trusted. She invested time, effort, love and even money into making it work. so even if that's all she's got going for her, it's still a lot. do you know how long it would take to pick up the pieces of your life after such a heartbreaking experience? Unlikable??? We must not be watching the same show😂.

thank youuuuu. it's ridiculously unrealistic. the way he treated her during and after their break up made me wonder if he ever treated her with any respect during the relationship. it says a lot about her own character and her own self respect. they did the same thing in king the Land and it was just as ridiculous. it never works and its unnecessarily overdramatic.

im not sure who handled the effects, but the blood work was just ridiculous. they didn't even try to get the color right. and most characters looked like they were just letting their mouths leak out red juice. the quantity of "blood" coming out of their mouths was just too much.
