These guys obviously had a big budget with no idea how to spend it. That sports car racing scene was so utterly ridiculous and inconsequential to the plot. they should've spent their money on paying better writers cos the writers clearly lacked incentive if all they could do was his clown show.

Actually, i do have a right to try convince people of my opinions. thats why debates are legal. i already stated that its their chooce to accept it or not. there's no bullying or manipulation involved. I didn't insult anybody. i didnt even insult the show. i just stated facts. theres no denying anyone of their opinions either. im not forcing anyone to hate the show. I was told that I was overhating and then i went on to state all my issues with the show. is it overhating when i have valid reasons, and when i express them candidly and respectfully. id like to see where exactly you got the idea of bullying. you focus on your adage. Imma do my own thing

which of the two sentences do you need an explanation for. I'm just gonna answer both.
1: the general public likes mediocrity, myself included. it's nice to just shut your brain off for a couple hours and binge through a dumb show.

2: yeah, I'm just selfless like this. this is my service to the community.

Look. I don't need you to hate it too. I actually acknowledge that people have different tastes. However, I'm a customer just as much as you are and I have every right to express how I felt about it. I have every right to try to convince people of my opinions and if they don't agree, that's their decision. I don't hate the actor, I don't even know the man personally. I just feel like another line of work would suit him better. modeling, maybe, cos all he is is a pretty face. you wanna like it, that's fine. but I hate it, and that's fine too. the fact still remains that it's trash, and no amount of arguing is gonna change that. hope this helps😘.

the ml doesn't know how to act. the story is contrived and full of plot holes. the show tried to focus on very dark themes yet it's too busy trying to be cute to actually make a friggin point. most of the comedy is trash. there's too many characters. there's too many episodes. the two leads fall in love too quickly after a bunch of overly unrealistic near death experiences. the villain has no backstory and no sensible motives. the fl is just a weak damsel in distress all the time. I'm sorry, what exactly is good about this show? the pretty aesthetics? well, guess what... every kdrama these days has pretty aesthetics. y'all should stop glorifying this overstuffed shit show and encourage your darling Song Kang to take some acting lessons

she's literally a dull plank. boring and robotic

i think the issue with hierarchy is it's characters. The idea of the plot makes for a good revenge thriller. However, it feels more like a teen high school drama than a thriller. this is probably because the protagonist has forgotten his motives five minutes after kissing the female lead. The fl is another issue. She has no personality; she's basically a robot. It's like talking to a brick wall. Her boyfriend, Rian is an obsessive, pretty boy with mommy issues. They both casually admitted during one of his flashbacks that their relationship is just a way to escape the burdensome realities of their lives, yet they somehow thought their confessions were romantic. Hera, the second female lead had a lot of potential, but her writing was shallow. She was still a bit entertaining to watch, though. I'm not done with the show yet, but it's been boring so far. Different people watch shows for different reasons: characters, plot, aesthetics, etc. Personally, it's impossible to get invested in a show that doesn't have interesting character, and these are by far one of the most boring set of characters I've come across in tv.

You must feel really intelligent saying that. Ever considered that people just have different tastes? Or is your brain too limited to grasp the basic concept of human preferences? Do us all a favor and go download some social skills—you’re running on empty, you pompous prude.

anyone I meet on this app who recognizes 2521 for the masterpiece it is, is someone whose taste I can trust in. i just saw your conversation with someone who was defending Queen of Tears as a 'work of art'. It's sad that most people are sold on a show by its pretty colors and attractive characters. it's laughable that anyone would think of this show so highly. the show was mostly cringe, full of borrowed storylines from other shows

when a person can't defend their point without being insulting, it's a clear sign of low iq

yeah, there's nothing like breaking bad though. it's not cliche at alllll. Western tv mostly focuses on the youth-teenagers and young adult stars. Many thought breaking bad would flop because it was so different, I mean, a 50 year old chemistry teacher with cancer. he was as boring a protagonist as one could ever think of. that's what made him special. there's nothing special about queen of Tears. I can name a bunch of other better shows it got pieces of it's story from. look, you're entitled to your own taste. I guess calling it a work of art is acceptable. even bad art are still works of art

the story was a cliche. the actors did great work with the material they were given. a lot of character development felt very unnatural and unearned. haein was a downright horrible person, and anyone who admired her has issues. also, I always felt like I was watching a runway show rather than an actual story.

trust me, you'll love her in the end

Thank you so much for this. I feel like this point completely flew over many people’s heads. While most are focused on the fact that the couple didn’t end up together, they often miss what truly matters — it happened, and they’ll never forget each other. Love, like youth, is fleeting, but real love lingers, even after the relationship is over, and the memories stay with you forever. That, to me, is the heart of the drama’s message, and it’s why 2521 remains my all-time favorite K-drama.

Weird. in my opinion, this show's mediocrity isn't recognized or hated enough. I need more people to see what a lackluster, contrived, shallow piece of art this is.

is this show good?

Thats okay😂. I just felt that the emotions and the romantic relationship was just as grounded as in CLOY. I didn't mean everything about the show was on CLOY's level.

I was already hanging on by a thread with Memories of the Alhambra, but now I’m almost completely convinced it’s time to drop it. When your plot depends solely on the willpower of your audience to hold it together, that’s a problem.

Hyun Bin’s character is directly linked to the murder of his former best friend and business partner—someone he clearly hates. On the night of the murder, he was the one who called the victim out of his house. His fingerprints were found on the victim’s collar, suggesting physical altercation. The time of death? Perfectly aligned with when they parted ways. Oh, and let’s not forget: he conveniently left the country that same night.

And yet, somehow, the police never even consider him a suspect. Not even for five seconds. He has both motive and opportunity, but because the story needs the protagonist free to chase magic contact lenses or whatever, the cops play dumb.

Even more insulting, several episodes later, another character—barely connected to another murder—is suddenly treated like a prime suspect. As if the writers just remembered that "evidence" is supposed to matter. It’s lazy, inconsistent, and completely reliant on the audience ignoring obvious logic gaps.

I don’t mind if a show isn’t fully realistic, but when it outright insults my intelligence, I draw the line. And let’s not even start on the pacing—it’s repetitive and painfully dull. The protagonist is a brick wall: zero emotion, zero humanity. And the walking stick? I’ve seen him move just fine during game scenes, but somehow no one around him notices. Like… are these people blind?

Tell me—does it get better? I’m already halfway through, and I really don’t want to waste more of my time.

i understand where you're coming from. and you're right, to they did date. must've slipped my mind. but understand that when ramwoo first died, she tried to move on and tried to heal. but she was unable to. knowing that she couldn't move on the first time, and that the second time would hurt so much more, I get why she wanted to end it. in fact, the question in my mind is actually this "if he never came into her life that week, reminded her of what it was like to really live, and then leave her again shattered, would she even have wanted to commit suicide in the first place?" I mean, it's like she was meant to die whether or not he came, but why after all these years. like, do you get what I'm saying? if he never came back, should she have wanted to commit suicide? or was he always destined to come back to her for that week. and he changed her destiny by Saving her on the roof. also, when he says that he lives on in her, he doesn't mean because he's disappearing for good. he means that he lives on in her in the physical plane, in her world, not in the afterlife.
