Did you watch it ? In the drama:

- Iblis is a Jinn not an Angel.
- He was created after the Angel with a smokeless fire like every others Jinn.
- Jinn refused to bow to human because of their pride and were punished by god.
- He asked to be able to corrupt human with his "Three Wish" bizness.
- The only Angel we see (and their backstory) is that they obeyed god and even went to war against the Jinn for not doing so.

Like, it seems really faithful to what you said so I really don't see what you are complaining about here... Again, did you REALLY watch it before ?

Same can be said about any religious material by their believer. For anyone else ? They are fictional books.

I personally didn't have this much fun watching a drama for a long time. It's "kinda" a dark comedy and they really played their cards really well here.

I loved both character. Satan aka. Iblis was a mix of goofy & merciless. So weak to his "Master" but he could still ripping out the heart of a living being.

As for Ki Ga Yeong the "Psychopath", while it wasn't really at the character writing level of a "Dexter", they did delivered. Personally I didn't have much expectation. K-Drama & a romance tag with it ? I was sure it would be sugarcoated to the max to make believe she was a true psychopath. But no, they really did stick to her character until the end (again, I expected them to "magically" cure her).

Anyway, if I would nitpick, the editing wasn't exactly to my taste. Sometime scenes just jumped out of nowhere without real link between the previous or next scene. Probably made by choice, but I wasn't fan of it personally.

As for all people "sensitive" about religion and others stuff, don't forget it's made for entertainment and not a documentary that need to be faithful to his original source material. But I'm not really surprised as I watched this drama and see a bunch of reference to religion, I was 100% sure some will take it personally & get offended by it.

I give that a 9.5/10 because like I said, I had a real blast with it but the editing issue didn't make it perfect.

Also, I think he is their uncle, the former king's brother. But to be fair, they also name "Uncle" someone older than them in Thai Drama so it always somewhat confusing to tell who his actually their biologically Uncle/Aunt/Brother/Sister. :P

No they aren't. At some point, Xiao Ren said "I know you are not my sister by blood" and even said he was older than his "twin sister".

But another thing keep bothering me: The Aunt & Father relationship. I actually think this "Aunt" is the actual sister of the Father. Because the Aunt & her child (FL's cousin) doesn't seem to have any relation with the "Rich Family" and FL said at some point that their relationship is abnormal and VERY messed up. If she was the sister of his former wife, it would be bad but not to the point of killing himself, right ? So I strongly believe they were in a incestuous relationship and well, her cousin truly have a great taboo around her birth.

I'm a bit weirded out that both brothers married the "same" person and absolutely no one made a comment about it in the drama. For instance, it was already weird that they mostly brushed of that uncanny resemblance between the "Princess" and her former self. Sure they noticed but come on, even if they were "cousin", you cannot be a perfect replica without being a twins (and even then, it isn't 100%) or a doppelgänger. Anyway, that's that but now both brothers have a wife that look identical to the others (and it's not like they didn't switch their identity before) ? And still no comment & everyone is fine with it ? Am I the only one with a twisted mind because I would sure gossip no stop about it if it happened IRL. :P

To be fair, I was always weirded out by those Twins X Twins couple we can see on social media.

This rating is off. I'm not saying it's a masterpiece but it's clearly one of the good one this year. I especially like the 2 episodes/scam. Anyway, is there an ongoing "scandal" around this drama to "justify" this low rating ? Or it's just plain hate because they have nothing else to do ?

I also fail to see how people are so attached to their story. Don't get me wrong I like them but their story isn't very original. It's the same old story CEO/Secretary office romance with a BL twist and a hint of Omegaverse. And they had the same scene over & over again: Shen Wen Lang saying he hates Omega at Gao Tu face while he feel guilty that he is one.

I mean those guys had seizure & Shao Qing was literally drooling so, it's fair to say that his pheromone are akin to poison at this point. :P

Main couple is good. And yeah, love triangle with a obsessive SML. SFL is also here but she is more a plot device than an actual character as she have very few screen time.

"Colorful Love: Genderless Danshi ni Aisareteimasu" have really similar theme (a straight romance with a boy with a unique gender identity).

Personally, I liked the past life flash back era. Sure it took quite a lot of screen time but it really shown the despair of this whole mess. That being said, tbh I think author is quite sadistic with his characters. This whole setup making ML killing FL again & again to then force FL to kill ML. I don't believe it can come up from a healthy mind. Regardless, I'm hook and really want to see how they will come up with a satisfying ending (they really deserve it...)

Oh I agree. But like I said, it wasn't really about the story itself. It's clearly a "forced" NC scene and they used whatever pretext to make it happen. I don't know if it make this worse or not. ^^'

My guess is that it was his "way" to make him leave the apartment ? But honestly ? It's probably "fan service" than an actual decision to make the story better.

And having seen episode 4, those NC scenes are definitely a tool to grab the viewer attention.

Ep. 4: Didn't expect that scene to be THIS explicit.

Anyway, it's really short so my expectation where low but so far the story is interesting & make sense (with some leeway). The subtitle are also good (they are often subpar in really low budget one). The acting is very young, they seems more lie to recite line than actually acting BUT it isn't that catastrophic. I've seen worse (but I'm not sure if it's really a compliment :P)

So overall, I'm gladly surprised and I can recommend it based on the first 4 episodes. I'm eager to see the last two even if I'm pretty sure how it will end.

I don't know about that. The book that lead FL to the past was written by the King himself like we saw. What it mean it that this "go back to the past" has already happen and reflected in the future (cf. the book). Basically, it's a loop and everything is already written like... The King being branded as a Tyrant and dethroned. It will happen and the preview show this I think.

She isn't "changing" the past, she basically writing it like it was suppose to if it follow the usual rule of time travel but in the end, writer can come up with anything they want but I don't think him becoming a tyrant will change. Or at least, the writing history of him becoming a tyrant as we know, the history is written by the victorious.

Can we talk about the enemy leader walking in & out like it wouldn't be possible for him to be captured or even be killed tbh ? I know they are "good guys" and it wouldn't be "honorable" but... Really ? He just massacre a whole village ! It isn't the time to be morally "right". :P

It was just a odd scene for me. Especially when they said "He only came with one guard". He even ask for it!

Not true, in fact iQIYI is "shorter" (because they don't have those "next break" scene).

Today episode on youtube: 49m58s (if my math are correct) & on iqyi; 47m44.

So no it's the same. Iqyi is shorter because they don't have those "next break" scene at the end of each part.

From the preview of ep. 9 , Siyeol will need to grovel more to make Aejoon forgive him. He literraly seems to be on his knee in one scene. :P
