Tried the first episode on a whim for fun. I liked Gong Myung in Way Back Love. So far this is a little boring but we'll see. My sister is an alcoholic and I can see a lot of the similarities between her and the FL drinking habits.
One thing I told my sister to get her drinking under control and something I follow, is never drink alone. No exceptions. Once you're solo drinking you're also solo levelling up your alcohol dependency. I noticed the FL doing that a lot. Clear sign. Only drinking with other people also means much fewer opportunities to drink.
Alcohol is meant to be a social drink, but also if you have friends where you never meet them except to drink, that's something to be addressed. And no drinking alone also means only drink if the person you're with is also drinking. My sister would ask if I wanted to drink and I would refuse, so she wouldn't be able to.
At that point in time she had been drinking and getting absolutely hammered every night by herself. When I introduced this rule, she actually listened, but that's because she wanted to stop and get her life back on track. It takes the will of the addicted person and someone to hold them accountable.
There are two things I'm currently very confused about. 1. What exactly is the Bureau of the Blind purpose? Like,…
1. I don't know, but best guess it's like communal living for blind folks to help them in their daily lives though it seems to be all men? I haven't finished the eighth episode yet so I'm hoping that will be enlightening a little bit. after watching a bit more they are calling them blind pansus and pansu is a term for a male sorcerer. in the episode they state they are basically the alternative since no Buddhist temple can enter the palace walls and shamanic rituals have to be performed 2.5 miles from the palace. so they do a bit of work for superstitious folk in the palace. Also shamanism is forbidden due to the royal religion (catholicism). the king is trying to keep the rituals and stuff on the very down low, as well as Yeo Ri's true purpose in the palace. 2. I think we will get an explanation for why GangCheol doesn't want to or can't kill to ascend. There's a lot of Gangcheol's background that we just haven't been given yet :/
okay this is an extremely wholesome watch. if you want to watch something that will keep you entertained but also won't stress you out, and makes you giggle and kick your feet a dozen times an episode, this is the one! I'm only on ep 7 but I have to say it really is a show that cheers me up genuinely. The main characters are really lovable. I hope it continues this way
The sixth episode was so fun! This is such a good show. I am loving Gangcheol's personality and how he's equally badass and cringe. He's so funny! I also really like the FL and her random shaman skills popping off every now and again
A terrible poster 😭 I have no idea what it's showing. It's like one of those images of what it's like after a stroke where it all looks familiar but you can't identify a single item in the image lmao. Regardless, really looking forward to this one.
