There are some serious cases of Stockholm syndrome happening. All female characters are sexually assaulted to varying degrees or murdered by one of the male leads. Though the chemistry and camera work are top tier, the very mid-2000's script writing is a bit of a mood killer. We have a manic pixie dream girl of a 2FL, FL's mother was killed by the ML and his poor decisions. 2ML rapes and pillages for a living....and lets his men do the same. 3ML had a coup that killed the previous rulers and now enslaves most of the country in some manner. What we have is a drama that you need to turn your brain completely off and just be distracted by the pretty pretty men and women, and scenery. It's like a dark romance smut novel watered down for CCP censorship boards come to life.
So of the 54 characters listed...less than 10 haven't tried to harm or kill the FL by episode 32. ML and 2ML did not make that list. 1 princess, 2 mothers, a guard, 3 older men connected to the ML. Pretty much everyone else has either tried to kill, or plotted to harm her for others. Every man that is interested in her has either almost gotten her murdered or worked with someone who wished her demise in some way. Looking at you 2ML looking at YOU, don't think I forgot. Every member but 2 of ML's family has directly plotted to kill FL. EVERY SINGLE ONE. This girl has more lives than a clowder of cats. Every episode there are, at least, 3 people actively trying to kill or undermine the FL. I'm not being hyperbolic. I had a list of people who didn't try to harm her...it's getting shorter not longer. 8 episodes to go...
Anyone have the list of OST with artists names in English? I recognize a voice & want to check, but drama wiki wont open for me for some reason even after changing all the permissions.
Two worms dancing on the mountain top was too funny. This was a watchable drama, but I do wish that they didn’t…
At first I was like oh are they going to show off their dancing skills? Then nope...worm. I'm sure you know, but for everyone not in the know. Both actors are trained dancers and even went to the same school together(it's where the dance photoshoot for this show was done). I really want to find the interview where they talk about their moms(who are close friends) seeing the promotional trailer for the show for the first time and how they responded. Cause it was funny as hell.
33mins into episode 26 and I need FWR(our little scar crow) to have a brain....please please please don't mess this up. Please show some semblance of the intelligence that got you that law degree.
I will never get used to it : ML is hiding, why is he so at ease on the balcony?
The arrogance of being back in your old room vibe. I'm assuming because he has intimate knowledge of the layout of this pavilion that he knows when he can and can't be seen by others.
Actually, when I think better, the ML was really very bad. He decided to kill 2 woman that were asking, no, begging…
I'm hoping they give more context as to why he chose violence so quickly. Did he think it was a trick by a waring city/nation? Was he just annoyed that they were there? Like why would you shoot at them instead of just keeping the gate locked and not answering the call?
I loved the scene in 10 where he's following her around the room. It reminds me of lyrical dance choreography and I would love to see the two mirror each other again like that.
There is no one that THEY like currently in their orbit. There actually is a guy that is circling the FL. He uses their Junior-Senior relationship as an in for work related quid pro quo, which is highly illegal in the banking/loan industry. He tries to pursue her, whether it's just for business reasons or he actually has romantic feelings for her is yet to truly be determined. Her boss is also a creep and constantly trying to force himself on her and any female "below" him. Sexual harassment that has yet to be truly called out or addressed within their HR department. She has let it slide multiple times with only threats of reporting even though not only was she almost victimized by him but her much younger colleague at the same work event. I'm going to need some legal resolution on that before the end of the show.
Is there any kiss scene in the entire drama, Ml,2ML??
Maybe it had something to do with the production? I haven't seen it yet to be able to tell specific thoughts on filming. But sometimes contracts have a certain differences based on the people producing the drama. but if it's just frozen lips on lips they aren't repeatedly swapping spit for the 50 takes it takes to get a shot.
They're mothers are close friends and they were classmates...well he's a few years older but they went to a artists school. Dance, singing etc. They've talked about it before on variety shows because she passed something to him from her mother. Just youtube it and videos should pop up.
only you can find in RJL dramas. a love story without a kissing scene (dont mention that kiss with camera trick)…
Honestly kind of respect him for his choice to not have kiss scenes, and still be able to convey a deep love for another character. It might be cause I grew up watching all the Hays Code movies and shows that it doesn't really bother me. I think depending on how the director shoots it will determine believability. Personally I think this director was a little weak in his set up, but it worked fine. (aka I've seen other productions with better cinematography around faking a kiss...looking at you 'The Double'. There were only 2(?) real kisses in the entire production. Only when the FL kisses a person she is married to. Every other kiss, of which there are many, was faked for the camera or artistically shot as to not show but imply that a intimate moment was happening.)
