I am officially renaming this drama as "The King:The Eternal Product Placement". All I can say is, KUDOS to the product placement team! I'd me damned if one of the main character here dies and there will be product placement coming from a funeral service. lmaooo!
I have seen product placement in other kdramas but it's done in a very subtle way, this one is beyond disbelief, almost every scene has one. I rest my case.
Honestly, at first I am not interested to continue after watching the first 2 episodes, I can't get pass the FML. I feel that there's no chemistry between them and her acting is just ridiculous. So I dropped it! Good thing someone kinda "pushed" me to try again. And I am soooo happy that I did! FML will grow on you slowly, just be patient with her. Well as for Xu Kai's acting... XU KAI is XU KAI, he breaks his comfort zone, ready to try different genre, although without formal acting training, he's a creme dela creme actor.
Thing with XK is that, when you watched one of his drama, you will definitely want to check the others as well. And the funny thing is that you'll be looking for the same kind of character but will be "beautifully disappointed" because you can't find the same persona. That only shows how versatile he is when choosing his scripts.
Agree so much! Such a talented actor I am blown away especially when I watch in the order of Yanxi Palace--> The…
Done!!! Kyahhhhhhhhh!!! I can't with Xu Kai! I used my pillow this time!!! ahahahah! I love the last scene... that subtle love building between the two of them is funny but romantic at the same time (flashbacks). They cared for each other in a very special way. Glad I was able to see Xu Kai in a different genre. I like that he's breaking his comfort zone and testing his limits.

He always looks so in love with his FML partners in all his drama, lmao!!!! He's really good!!! It's so bad that the only time I can watch this drama is at night, I need to cover my face for me not to make too much noise. ahahaha! My sister's giving me evil eyes most of the time! looooooool. The scene where he was eating dumpling with his parents makes me cry so bad (ugly crying that is). lol. OMG such an emotional scene.. waaaaa!!
