I feel the need to quote user @Gabriela513's comment from two years ago here because of how spot on it is. ""At first I was like 'this is show is a competition to see which character is more of an asshole' but then I started crying and the tears didn't stop till the last episode.""
I hadn't even thought of the possible fairytale element to this, but now, multiple years after I actually saw the drama, I'm a bit obsessed with the possibilities. I kind of want to write an alternative ending now with this in mind...anyway, excellent review!
Pau93, you win 'worst comment' award, congratulations! How does it feel to be so self-righteous and perfect? I've…
I didn't cheat, but that doesn't mean that I would ever say the things that you have been saying ad nauseum on here, and the fact that you don't see anything wrong with it is concerning. And blaming it on your "values' makes it worse, in my opinion.
Pretty much Like some big star endorses a car brand and being very cool driving the car in the commercial and…
No worries - some of us are slower watchers and haven't made it that far yet. :-) When I finally get there, I'll check your answer again to make sure I'm on the right track, so thanks!
So the general theme of the drama from the very beginning was that Hee Soo (희수) didn't love herself enough.…
If you would send your blog to me in direct message, I would love to read more of what you write…..if it’s in English, of course (I can’t read Korean…..yet. LOL) I really like understanding the context behind what I’m watching better, so I look forward to learning more!

Thank you so much for this incredibly helpful explanation! Do you have other dramas that you've written thematic and character analyses for? I would read them all, if so!
Personally I hate finding out when songs are sung by him. It basically ruins the whole song for me. It's not normal…
What an uninformed comment. What’s “normal?” Music has no gender. I recommend you look up Pentatonix and listen to Mitch Grassi’s high notes - he’s known for them. Also traditional/ancient Chinese music was often sung in falsetto, by men, and a Chinese man just broke the world record for “highest vocal note by a male” which was up in the whistle tones.
On the other end, there have been some proposed musical terms for women who can sing in the lower registers, which are contralto profondo for tenor and oktavistka for bass. Ysaye Maria Barnwell, a member of the all-female a cappella group Sweet Honey in the Rock, can sing bass. (And I’ve them perform multiple times and have met her and her bass is *impressive.*)
I liked this and think it's quite underrated. The story, acting and look of the drama were all excellent. I get…
Your "running around funfairs for dates and sterile kissing" comment is living rent-free in my head now......LOL! Maybe we should start a club for those of us who are grown-ass adults and ok with some mature content....
in some countries is quite normal to show nudity , that sometimes I think the actors have really sex , I heard…
I resonate with your comment a lot. European movies often show a LOT of sex. I'm American (and the whole world knows how some of our movies and tv shows are) and so I was like, "Where's the skin?" when I started watching a lot of K-dramas... :-)
Pau93, you win 'worst comment' award, congratulations! How does it feel to be so self-righteous and perfect? I've been cheated on by an ex - in an unbelievable way, in fact - and I would never wish that on someone else with such a heartless comment. Also, the world is a messy place and humans are messy creatures within it. People who act like everyone has to fit into neat and ordered little boxes make all the problems worse.

An utterly perfect description.
