I know little of the Buddist faith or routines so if this movie is accurate it was an interesting peek into a very strict and severe life style. They have rituals for everything, including using the bathroom. And like a lot of religious groups, those at the top are hypocritical when it comes to adhering to the same rules they hold others to.
I found this movie to be soft and sweet with low angst levels. It's made me want to check out the manga.
I could relate to the ML in having a family situation that is painful to talk about and one that makes you leery of building relationships. The fact that he always supported other people showed (to me) that he needed someone to support him as well.
The FL is painfully shy but she starts trying to change with small tasks, watching ML and her new friends help her learn to accept herself and grow is heartwarming.

The credit scenes and the post credit scene were super cute.
Can someone clarify for me? So Cheong Myeong wasn't born as a princess? She was from a commoner family and was…
Correct, Cheong Myeong was not born a princess. After losing the war with China, the Joseon royal family was required to unite the two royal families via marriage. The King did not want to marry his own daughter off to China so they adopted Cheong Myeong, who is a distant relative, so they could use her in the arranged marriage instead. Her family was paid to allow this to happen, essentially selling her off.
She stole my heart in The Kodai Family! Right after seeing her there I put a bunch of her other shows on my PTW list. This article made me realize I need to pull them closer to the top of the list! 😍
Has some cute bits, even while feeling very low budget. The face mask ads got old quick. Any charm this show had literally and figuratively died in the last few episodes. Several very big things are never explained.
I'm only 2 episodes in so far but I think I see where some people are misunderstanding yet to be said things and aren't giving this show a chance. FL lead is known to give relationship advice to her female coworkers. So ML comes to her asking her to give him advice as well. The thing is, and they haven't said it outright but I'm pretty sure I'm right as a romance story veteran, is that the person he's asking to get help wooing is actually HER. He has this cute but cagey smile when interactions between them happen. He's subtly trying to get her attention and shake her up and it's working, hehe. I think the latter part is where some people are mistaking his behavior and they're labeling him as flat.
Thanks for nothing Netflix. No one asked for this.☠️ Big thumbs down. 👎 They are really hellbend on ruining…
Netflix isn't Disney. They're not trying to take over IPs and control them end to end. Netflix just dumps money on people making shows/movies they think people will want to watch. There is a difference between creating a show and simply funding it.
Consider that while the US market may not have asked for new seasons maybe the Korean market did and it would make sense to support their native audience. Is it any better to ask the Korean drama makers to only consider the wants of the US market?
