TheRetiredGodOfWar

yeah, it had a huge drop-off in quality

I get all that, but he could clearly see that for months, it was not gonna happen, so at some point he should have seen reason and tried to look for other avenues.

If murder is the only way you can get this job, maybe it's time to look elsewhere.

and before you come at me, I do get what they wanted to portray and the message of the movie, it's just not that believable, especially for a movie that wants to be taken seriously.

I wish her food was solving problems. that's the thing though her food was like fast food, a momentary happiness, and then they were back to their scheming and general evilness, she changed no one that was already bad.

just finished watching it, and it was quite a fun watch, there were some issues that I had with it though, like why does he only have to have the paper job? there are so many other options.

or why did he even call that old guy to prevent him from seeing his wife cheat? like what was the purpose of that?

why couldn't the music teacher secretly record the kid playing the cello so the parent could see? for the longest time I thought she was scamming the parents?

don't really get the wife hiding the secret too? isn't she afraid that he might do the same to any of her kids or even herself?

thanks

is the manhwa version simpler?

also is it available in English?

yeah, King the land was terrible, don't know how so many people like it

yeah, she's just there to drive the plot.

to be fair though, most of the characters don't have any depth, even FL doesn't have much development, I think ML is like the only person that had any depth.

she doesn't even get a proper background, we have no idea why she wants the king dead.

Yep, it was way too trigerring, my mom was like this too, and she wasted so much of my life with her victim mindset

You just don't get what I'm saying, I don't care about history, in the drama they called him a Tyrant and there was nothing to indicate that, and in the title, it's called tyrant's chef, it's just misleading and false advertising, that's all I'm saying

OMG! he exiled someone after they insulted the king, oh! then he must be a tyrant😪are you serious, dude? you call that being a tyrant? I guess we have a different understanding of the word Tyrant, a true Tyrant doesn't wait for evidence to start his killings, all he needs is his own conviction and desire.


I also don't remember him killing a group of minister😒where did you get that from?

Just finished it and overall it was a fun watch, they did lose me a little with the out of nowhere villain, but he was too goofy to be taken seriously so that was fine.
the major issue I had with the movie was the lack of romance, it's part of the genres of the movie, and it gets mentioned in the summary too, but tangibly there is nothing.

if we consider ML falling for the ghost lady as part of the plot, then it brings up the issue of that fact that he didn't fall for Seon Ji, he was just superficially attracted to her at the beginning.

If we don't consider him falling for ghost lady, and consider it just friendship, then we go back to square one with my issue of lack of romance.

Overall, it's a fun watch, and I'll recommend it if you want some laughs and a little mystery, but that's about it, don't expect romance.

from what I understand he actually did a bunch of Tyrant worthy stuff beforehand, but we as the audience never really see it happen or in his behavior(he just throws some toddler level tantrums), it's an issue of telling instead of showing, from what I remember some people in the past even said so, so it's not just from history books. the drama's also called The Tyrant's chef, so it brings up an expectation of some Tyrant behavior.

Back in the day, jars were expensive🤣🤣🤣

He wasn't even a proper Tyrant.

what kind of a Tyrant listens and takes other people's advice into consideration?
what kind of a tyrant goes to investigate and letting the girl he likes rot in jail?
what kind of a tyrant even is that?

Because her rom-coms are usually bad and full of annoying tropes, she picks terrible scripts.

there are a tone of other dramas that tend to stay away from these tropes, and they do very well with the audience, unfortunately she isn't in any of those, both love next door and would you marry me have the annoying ex trope.

how can you say it's a light silly romance, when you're mentioning so many annoying tropes? these annoyances are completely against a "light, silly" drama.

Yep! same thing happened with Bon Appétit, Your Majesty, the romance and comedy got lost in the cliché, and overdone palace plots that everyone could see from a mile away.

yeah, the cooking battle took way too long and in the end it was meaningless, FL's whole time-travel didn't really affect any of the plot either, she didn't really do anything, she was just there for the ride and to take a husband for her back to the future, that's it.
