Did you understand the fact whether Do Jun & Hyeon Woo have the same faces or not? I'm really confused rn. During…
Yeah, I had the exact same question. Honestly speaking, I feel like they looked different to others, but looked similar only for each other (Do Jun and Hyeon Woo). The reason Secretary Ha recognised him was perhaps because of the eyes (window of our soul) or the script writer just messed up in a major way leaving such a plot hole in the script. My understanding is that the novel ending is somewhat different (not too sure)
I’m very happy for him. I think it’s well known that he’s wanted kids for a very long time, so I’m happy that his wish is becoming true. Much happiness to the couple, may they have a healthy baby! ❤️
Another drama, where kindness and gratitude literally changed the course of a country’s history but also that of our main CP, is of course The Story of Minglan.
If you haven’t watched it, please do. One of the best C-Period Dramas there is.
The drama was very good till ep 35, and then Yang Hua and Qin Shi’a relationship got weird. Suddenly they aren’t as honest and open with each other… that’s a bizarre twist
The acting of most of the cast was very good and enjoyable.
While I’m glad that the FL & ML can be together, the actual current setup of their relationship is rubbish. They’re always in different worlds, and he, a monarch, still doesn’t have a consort and heirs.
When she told Luna to look after their dad as she was leaving that world to go to the Kingdom of Corea, didn’t that mean that she was ready to leave her life in our universe behind? Why not stick to that decision?
In the new universe, she could’ve pretended to be some long lost twin or sth of her other self, and once she became Queen who would have the guts to question her DNA being absolutely identical to Luna’s? Smh.
She didn’t even have to completely leave her dad behind. They could show him the new world so he’d be ascertained that his daughter is in a good place and then they could visit him every few weeks or something. When you’re married you tend to see your parents much less anyway, especially if you live in different countries. It’s not like she would have been leaving him for good.
Otherwise I liked the drama, the maths/physics used to explain the different rules and phenomena in the drama were actually fun to follow and they made sense (though not 100%).
The actor playing Baek Kyung (Lee Jae Wook) and the actress playing Eun Dan Oh (Kim Hye Yoon) hard carried this drama imo, especially the former. Their scenes where heavy feelings were needed, angst etc, were all really well executed and enjoyable. Baek Kyung became my fave despite his rubbish behaviour in the first half of the drama.
Haru actor (Rowoon) was okay, but at times it felt a bit forced and the character itself boring after the first 20 eps.
Kim Young Dae was good enough given how dull his character was (not his fault tbh) and he had little screen time in comparison. His lines were so repetitive, I’m surprised how he hadn’t gone crazy from saying same thing over and over. LOL
The drama was enjoyable enough, but I can’t say I’m super taken with it. I doubt I’ll watch it for a second time.
This drama will be a success only if the script is well written and sticks to the novel + solid acting. There’s certainly potential for it to be one of the best dramas out there, but it could also be a major failure. Fingers crossed.
As a person working in Finance, who studied Business and Financial Maths, everything in this drama made loads of sense to me. It’s a pity we didn’t get to see how he could’ve managed the 2007-2008 financial crash. I bet he would’ve shorted the housing market in US and made himself a billionaire on a world wide scale. I was surprised he didn’t invest in Google, but apparently he did in the Webnovel hehe
I really enjoyed the drama, but what a horrible ending. Not in the execution but for the ML. All of his feelings and experiences with other people basically turned to ash, as he couldn’t continue most of those relationships without being Jin DoJun himself, especially the one with his family and his fiancé. It was interesting that Secretary Ha recognised him, and he was basically the only one to do so. But yeah… I feel really sorry for him.
Such a long conversation you guys had....You both have made good points but the only thing I would say is that…
I absolutely agree that an extra two episodes could’ve solved the issue of not getting enough time for the audience to come to terms with what’s happening. Endings which are not perfectly and carefully done usually tend to be even more disappointing than issues with the plot itself.
That’s why he kept asking himself why he was getting the same feelings with BoYeon as with MaDeok. Her coldness…
I disagree, and I think what needed mentioning I already have. If your perception of things precludes you from seeing it as I do, there’s nothing to be done. I like dramas where I need to work things out on my own based of minimal and subtle acting, but it’s not for everybody :)
About her choosing to give up her body to save Daeho I again have to disagree according to my English subs on…
Okay, in Korean they say she chose to give up her body by taking his hand the exact same way when he died. She “chose” to remember that moment. Multiple times she implied that it’ll be her choice to see it. Otherwise how would she know that it’s her last moment or not. OG BY is aware of everything Naksu did and said. It’s obvious what happened. Perhaps just rewatch the episode to see for yourself.
P.S. It’s not that Naksu could choose not to leave BY’s body, it’s more about the timing of it and how she wanted to do it. Perhaps not as important to you, but it certainly is to me
