Nice pump! jCW appreciates it! He needs all the pump and hype he can get for this disaster

The show deserved less screentime

One of the most embarrassing comeback. I bet many of those here who dislike this drama have a real job unlike you roleplaying like you have a job when you are in fact 24/7 oppa crazes

By now you should know they have no standards. Everything is just a charade. Any stance they take is based on what helps them hype their opps shows

Wtf? You think too highly of yourself. Why in the flying fuck would I apologize just because you think I should. And most importantly why the fuck would I apologize when I didn’t say anything wrong,

I have no time for your snowflake woke bullshit

Everyone who disagree with you is a bot. lol. Such an embarrassing comeback. Maybe stop being obsessed with oppas and ge5 a real life dumb dumb

Minus off the JCW pump ratings and this show will be in the 5-6 range

The 'I’m too intellectual and feminist for standard K-dramas' defense is embarrassing. For someone claiming to be a 'long-time writer' with standards too high for the rest of us, you wrote three paragraphs of self-congratulation without addressing a single structural critique.

Liking 'morally grey women' and 'thematic analysis' doesn’t magically fix bad pacing, stagnant character momentum, or repetitive narrative beats. Great writing shows, it doesn't need its audience to write a defensive resume in the comments just to justify watching it. If your standards are that elite, you should be able to tell the difference between actual psychological depth and an aesthetic drag

You want specifics? An 8-episode runtime that crawls because the plot goes in circles, leads who have zero emotional arc beyond “looks”, and pacing so dead it uses explicit scenes as narrative crutches instead of earning real tension. Having pretty cinematography and A-list names doesn't make a hollow script immune to criticism."

You literally conceded it's 'very slow,' but the moment someone calls it trash, you scramble for the sex strawman. Why is it so hard to accept that a show can have explicit scenes and still be terribly written? Skin doesn't compensate for non-existent pacing, unearned stakes, and hollow characters. Stop assuming people are clutching pearls just because they have higher storytelling standards than you

Equating criticism of lazy, hollow storytelling with 'being anti-erotica' is wild cope. Sex scenes don't save a boring script. You can enjoy mature content and still demand better pacing, actual stakes, and characters worth caring about

Nothing to do with sex. It’s trash in its own merits

lol at all the oppa obsessed fangirls giving a lecture about sex and how you are from a backwards shithole if you don’t like it and refuse to call the show a masterpiece.

The funny thing is if they were having sex everyday all the time like they claim everyone does, they won’t be wasting time here trying to pump up this show for their oppa

Their sexlife and experience with sex is as fake as them calling this a masterpiece

You are trying to explain logic to soemone who is scrapping the bottom of the barrel to find any reason to cook up a narrative that the show is a masterpiece

Why do you want people to waste their time to watch this junk which is among the worsts shows ever made this decade

It’s standard internet shorthand for falling for the most obvious con on earth, not a geopolitical lecture on Nigeria. Stop policing metaphors over a terrible K-drama review.

Hands down one of the worst shows not just of 2026, but the entire decade. Absolute garbage. If you're gullible enough to let JCW oppa obsessed fangirls convince you this is a 'masterpiece,' you might as well wire your savings to a Nigerian prince

Ji Chang Wook looks like a pervert in this show

lol, proving that you are an oppa obsessed fan girl.

This should be at best a 7 rating. Curious to see how high the oppa fangirls are pumping the rating
