I'm 20 episodes in. Honestly, the first 2 episodes didn't wow me but starting with a really big event in Ep 3 the story picks up and stays steady. Still worth checking out and IMO give it until ep 3-4 to make up your mind. :)
That's right around where I would've dropped too. I basically watched the last 8 eps by skipping around. It got SO BORING. I mean I like fluffy kiss scenes as much as the next person, but mixed in with actual plot! Nothing happened and they'd kiss all the time for the last 1/3 of the drama. Yawn.
This story should've been at least 5-8 episodes shorter (IMO). There wasn't enough plot to keep things engaging after the leads got together. It went from adorable to forcing myself to finish because I was bored as hell real quick. Shame too because it was a solid 9 for 2/3 of the way.
I used to be so crazy about culpa mía because of the chemistry but the 2nd part ruined everything 👹 this drama…
As far as fights & car races go, seeing that shouldn’t be difficult in a CDrama. It’s the explicit bed scenes that wouldn’t make it past censors, lol. (literally the only thing I remember from the 45 min worth of CT lol).

I don't even think I made it that far to see him kiss someone else in Culpa Tuya lmao! The ML (both the actor & his character) were majorly off-putting. I know there's a third part as well, but obvi I won't be checking it out either having stopped midway through the 2nd one. There's zero chance that S&L would be like CM. And typically Esther chooses solid dramas, so I'm hopeful with this one! (outside of the car racing/parents marrying each other plotline lol)

Culpa Tuya was a steaming pile of garbage, lmao. I only liked Culpa Mia for the leads’ visuals. 🙈 The FL legitimately HATED her costar by the time they filmed the second one (and it showed) haha.
I don't know if anyone on here will get the reference, but Chong Zhao's character reminds me so much of Dain from Fourth Wing, lmao! (At least up until ep 17)
I'm actually REALLY excited for these 4 together on the screen and I feel like JJH will be a really good Sovieshu BUT I kinda wish they committed and went the European historical with those gorgeous ball gowns route like the original source material rather than doing a Joseon historical... *shrugs* just my 2 cents.
I’ve seen comments saying The Glory is better, then some saying The Double is better. 🤣 I’m one that stopped…
LMAO I meant the pacing for The Glory!! xD Good to know about the pacing, haha. I've seen enough people say positive things to at least give it a try. Thanks for your input! :)
Lmao I'm actually giddy. xD
Thank God that it'll be nowhere near as toxic, lmao.
