I watched the first 30 mins of this and wow it seems boring and hollow. I'll have to skip it.

This series certainly uses AI for subtle things like the food effects in the fantastical dream sequences that have some suspect looking artifacts that are typical of AI, but I highly doubt they are using it to create people or anything like that.

Obviously they need to use green screens to place the actors in the effects, but the effects themselves are undoubtedly at points in the show generated by AI. The parent company that produces this show, CJ ENM, is well noted for pushing the use of AI this year.

I am still very happy to enjoy the next 3 episodes. I dont know what is going to happen but I hope Gil Geum goes back to the future with Ji Yeong.

Studio Dragon is owned by CJ ENM, one of the largest entertainment companies in Korea, which has been heavily promoting their use of AI in their content since this past summer. I understand that they have made reputable and quality dramas in the past without it but they are shifting focus and starting to use AI often.

I've seen a lot of similar comments about it on Reddit, it's just my own perception but I'm pretty sure it's AI.

Sure they need a green screen to put the actor into the scene with the effects, but the graphics and visuals digitally added to the green screen background are frequently AI.

I like this show and I don't want to be a downer but there is too much AI used for the funny "food ecstasy" cut scenes. You can notice it very clearly in the chicken with mustard scene from EP 9, the giant chicken dripping with mustard sauce is clearly AI generated. Not a fan at all of seeing that used in kdramas.

This show was nearly 50% filler episodes. It started out fun but really lost itself.

this is a beautiful show

I just can't finish this one, thinking about dropping it at ep 11.

I agree what the hell!

these older dramas destroy me, the emotional desperation hits so deep it shakes me up. I know it's overly melodramatic, I know parts of it are silly, I know it's stupid when he puts on a mustache and sunglasses... but I feel their love and I feel their pain. I need to find another classic to watch.

I've been listening to the soundtrack on spotify, very good to work/study with.

I'm trying to watch the first episode of this show and my god its overloaded. I feel no connection to any of the characters, does it get any better?

Wow so excited for this, curious what role Cheon Ho Jin will play. He has been one of my favs since My Golden Life.

The instrumental score to the series is so surprisingly fantastic I love the Irish vibe of the fiddle and flutes.

Maybe I'll see what people say about episodes 9 &10 next weekend, but this might be a hard stop and drop for me.

She really does look like SHS! I think about it everytime she's on screen.

Aiight just finished. So good! I think of all the relationships I liked Eun Hui and Mi Ran the most. Something about their reconciliation really shook me, very strong emotions, very beautifully acted.
